Out of the Darkness
Secret
Harry POV:
I can feel my face heat up as I say; "Um, i guess I'm gonna have to help you...". I lift Samantha and carry her into the bathroom. I put her on her feet in front of the toilet, and tell her to hold onto the sink for support.
"Got it?" i ask, as i carefully let go of her. She nods, and I back away towards the door. "Ok Samantha, I'm going to be right outside the door. If you need anything just yell." i say before realizing that she can't yell. "Oh, wait umm, if you need anything i guess just make loads of noise and i will come help you." She nods, flashing a heartwarming smile, and i go outside to wait.
I don't know why I am so attracted to Samantha. Maybe it's because she needs help, and i like to help people, but deep down i know there's something else to it. Yeah, she is pretty and blushes easily. Sure her laugh is cute, but I've seen all that before. I haven't even heard her talk yet, for gods sake!
I guess it's just that most girls I've dated are just with me for the money and the title. They are usually shallow girls who care too much about how they look, and they are too scared to be themselves and laugh. Samantha is different. She hasn't been acting weird with me and the guys just because we are who we are, she's been treating us like normal people. She seems like the kind of girl that i could actually have a good conversation with. Of course that's the one thing i can't do at the moment...
But she does seem open and inviting, and doesn't appear to act differently just because she's scared what we'll think of her. I mean, for god's sake, she just told a whole room of guys, that she hardly even knows, that she had to pee! It takes someone with a whole lot of personality to do something like that.
I also feel like I already know her, since i spilled most of my secrets to her while she was in her coma. I wonder if she could hear me...It was nice getting my feelings out.
I smile to myself as I wait in the hallway. I've literally only known Samantha for a few hours day (at least while she was awake), and already I'm falling for her. I hear the toilet flush, so I knock on the bathroom door, and open it just a bit.
"Are you ready love?" i ask. "Laugh if you are!" I get the cutest giggle in response, so i enter the bathroom to find Samantha waiting, holding onto the side of the sink. I lift her up and bring her around to the front of the sink so she can wash her hands while I keep her from collapsing. When she's done, I scoop her up bridal style and spin around, making her giggle and grab my arms.
Samantha POV:
Harry comes back into the bathroom with the most charming little smile on his face. He helps me wash my hands and then all of a sudden he reaches down and scoops me up into his arms. He twirls around, and I giggle and grab onto him in fear of falling. He shifts his hold on me, and I cry out in pain as his arm puts pressure on my healing ribs. He immediately stops spinning, and shifts his grip back to how it was before.
"Oh, Sam are you okay? I'm sorry! I forgot about your ribs." He looks down at me with such a look of concern, and now that the pain has passed, I can't help but laugh at the ridiculousness of the situation.
Harry finally cracks a smile of relief that I am fine as he leans down and whispers in my ear;
"Want to see the rest of the house?" I look up at him and nod. He carries me out and starts the tour at the front door.
"Here is the main entryway," he says softly. He points to the right showing me a door to the kitchen and living room. The other rooms on the bottom floor include the bathroom, a game room with ping pong and air hockey, a small gym, and a guest bedroom. Harry carries me upstairs, and starts pointing out the different rooms.
"There's Niall's, this one's Zayn's, that's Liam's, and here is Louis' room." Harry says. Then he goes to the last room, and brings me inside. "And here's my room."
I have to smile. Harry's room is so messy, i don't know how anyone could live in here. He picks his way through the mess on the floor until he stands at the side of the bed. In one fluid motion he throws me carefully onto the bed. I laugh as he plops down next to me.
Harry POV:
We spend the afternoon in my room listening to music, only interrupted by Jennie who comes in twice to check on Sam. Samantha tries talking, and slowly her voice comes back, although it is very rusty and broken. At first we talk only about music and such, but, as her voice starts warming up, I start asking her more serious questions. I find out that she is 19, and she was at our concert because a friend gave away her ticket to Sam.
She says that she hadn't really listened to One Direction music much before the concert. This explains why she hasn't been acting like a crazy fan... Then I remember something;
"Sam?"
"Yes, Harry?"
"Where are your parents?" I ask softly. Samantha freezes up, and she gasps, putting a hand over her mouth as tears fill her eyes. I immediately regret asking as I sit up and wrap my arm around her shoulders, trying to comfort her.
"I'm sorry, Harry I forgot to tell you..." She gasps
"Tell me what, Love?"
"My parents are dead. They were killed by a drunk driver when I was seven. I was raised in an orphanage." She tells me, looking at her hands. I pull her closer, letting the news wash over me.
"Oh, Sam, I'm so sorry. I had no idea."
She looks up an me. "Harry?"
"Yes Sam."
"That night, the night of your concert, was my 19th birthday." Tears spill over her eyes and start tracking their way down her face. "That was the day that I was too old to be in the orphanage." She whispers, her whole body going limp. "I have no where to go"
The sight of Sam crying breaks my heart. I can't bear to see any girl like this, especially not Sam who has been through so much. I pull her into my lap, and cradle her in my arms.
"Shhhh, Sam. Look at me" I say. Her big brown eyes turn up to meet mine. I wipe away her tears with my thumb, and whisper "You will always have a place with us." This makes her cry even more, and I hold her until she cries herself to sleep in my arms. I tuck her under my covers and admire the innocence and look of peace on her face before I walk out of the room.
