Chapter 4



JC stayed by Samantha's side the whole night, only leaving to go to the bathroom. He spent the whole time staring at her and crying. She would show some signs of live every now and then. It was mostly crying, like she was reliving the night. He clutched a teddy bear and every time she made some sort of movement, he almost squeezed the bear to death, hoping just hoping that she would wake up.
"Hey JC, if you want I'll take over and you can go get some sleep," Chris said at around 3 a.m.
"No, I'm not leaving her," JC said stubbornly. "Thanks anyway." Chris sighed and walked out of the room.
Justin came in after him with a cup of tea,"Here drink this," he said handing it to JC. He smiled and gratefully drank it. Justin sat down on the other side of the bed. He fidgeted with the end of the bed spread. "Hey!! Maybe some music will help wake her up!" Justin cried.
JC's face lit up," I'll try anything."
Justin stood up and put in his Jay-Z c.d. "Can I get a...." came on blaring through the room. He began rapping along.
JC frowned and yelled over the music,"But, does it have to be this song?" Justin nodded and changed the song to "Hard-Knock Life." This made JC even sader, cause it reminded him of Sam's life. "I'm sorry, J, but can you put on another song? This reminds me of her life."
Justin nodded again and put in the Offspring c.d. "Pretty Fly For A White Guy" didn't wake her up. JC sighed, cursing himself for even thinking that would work.
Justin flipped through JC's c.d. collection,"Ok, let's try some Sting." They went through song after song but nothing worked. JC felt like crying.
At around 4 a.m. Justin rubbed his eyes and looked at JC, "Well, maybe we should try the Backstreet Boys or 98* or something. Maybe even us."
JC nodded his head and began to search around his room for the Backstreet Boys c.d. Justin found 98* in a drawer on his desk. He put it in and "Heat It Up" came on. He looked at Sam, watching for any signs of life. JC pulled some boxes out of his closet. He opened one of them and saw it was some fan letters. He browsed through some more boxes and finally found the BSB c.d. "Heat It Up" finished and no luck.
JC handed Justin the c.d. He put it in and "I Wanna Be With You" came on. Justin and JC sat down beside her bed again. The song soon ended, and Justin changed it to "10,000 Promises."
"Let's try our c.d. next," JC said, kissing Sam's hand.
"Better yet, man, why don't we sing it to her?"
JC grinned at Justin,"Y'know I think that might work!"
"I'll get the guys," Justin said standing up.
"Hey, Justin?"
"Yeah?"
"Thanks. I mean for everything. I really appreciate it and I know Sam would too. I know you like to get your sleep and you're not tonight."
Justin smiled,"It's no problem." He ran out of the room. He walked into the guest room. Lance was sleeping in here. "Lance, hey Lance. Get up." Justin said nudging him. Lance grunted and pulled the covers over his head. "LANCE!! Come on, get up!"
"Leave me alone," he muttered in his sleep. Justin grinned and pulled the sheets out from underneath Lance. He fell onto the carpet. "WHAT?!?!?!?" he yelled, waking up as he hit the floor.
"Sorry 'bout that, but it's time to get up!!!" Justin said cheerfully.
Lance looked at his watch,"It's only 4:10"
"Yea, but we want to try to get Samantha up by singing to her, so come on."
He groaned and walked to JC's room. Justin went to the rec room and over to the couch,"Joey, get up. We gotta help Sam." He gently punched him,"Please? Come on Joey!"
"Fuck off," was the sleepy reply.
Justin laughed and walked over to the window,"OMG!!! Hey! Was that Superman that just flew past our window?"
"Huh???" Joey cried, sitting up. Justin walked over to him and pulled him up,"Let's go wake up Sam."
"But wait, what was this about Superman? He flew by the house?" Joey ran over to the window.
Justin rolled his eyes,"No, man. I was just trying to get you up." He walked out of the room.
"Are you sure?" Joey cried, following him.
"Joey, think about it! Superman is a cartoon character."
Joey shook his head, "That wasn't nice to do to me, man!" He went into JC's room and Justin went to get Chris.
He went into the other guest room, "Hey Chris, get up so we can help Sam!"
Chris opened his eyes,"All right." He sat up. Justin's mouth dropped open. Chris jumped out of the bed and walked over to JC's room. Justin followed.
They all gathered around Sam's bed and began to sing, "(God Must Have Spent) a Little More Time on You." When they finished singing, they all looked at her. JC held his breath, when she slowly opened her eyes and looked at all of them, "Where am I?"
All the guys started jumping up and down and hugging each other. JC felt tears of joy well up in his eyes. He knelt down beside Sam, " You're at my house."
She looked at him,"Um..ok, and you are?"
JC's smile fell of his face,"JC. You don't remember me? You don't know Justin, Joey, Chris, or Lance? Your mother? The attack last night, the rape, the molesting?"
She looked at him weirdly,"What are you talking about?"
By now, all the guys had realised that Sam had no memory. "Do you know who you are?" Chris asked, sitting down on the floor.
"Yes I do. I'm....I'm....no, I don't know." She looked very frustrated.
"You're Samantha. You work at the country club, and um.." Justin started.
"You live with your mother and help support her. You have no brothers or sisters. You're father died when you were young. You plan to go to college someday and you love music," JC finished.
Justin nodded his head, "Yea, what he said." Sam looked at them and shrugged her shoulders,"It doesn't ring any bell in my head."
"We should take her home," Lance said.
"Yea, but where's her home?" Justin questioned. They all looked at JC, who shook his head not knowing. They contined to ask her questions, but she didn't remember anything. Joey finally dosed off. "I think we should all get to bed, then do this later," Justin said, standing up. Lance and Chris waved good bye to Sam and walked out of the room. Justin looked at Joey and pulled him out of the room.
"So, where do you sleep?" Sam asked JC.
"Here, this is my room."
"Oh, I'm sorry. I can sleep somewhere else."
"No, I'm fine," JC said with a smile.
"You have such a pretty smile," Sam said, softly. JC's eyes widened.
