| I always wanted to see the situation
played out with Sami facing her feelings for both men in her life
head on at the same time without one of them being out of the picture
like TPTB did with getting rid of Brandon, so last night I outlined
almost an entire story with that premise in mind and figured that
I'd try to pen it all out and see if I could make of it something
that worked. Here are the first chapters of my untitled creation.
Chapter One
Sami danced around her apartment humming a romantic tune to herself
as it seemed that the world around her was finally falling into
place at long last. Life had given her a less than fair share
of ups and downs over the years, but on a night like tonight everything
was beyond perfect. She continued to light the candles knowing
that at any moment Lucas would be returning home and that they
would ultimately lose themselves to this enchanted evening as
tonight marked the six month anniversary of the day they’d
finally revealed their hearts to one another at long last after
what felt like a lifetime of denial with one another about how
deeply they’d truly cared for one another.
Even now as Sami reflected upon that moment in time when she’d
tasted Lucas’s kiss and felt his arms around her, her heart
began to fill with love as she saw how the love of the right man
could clearly turn her life around. She’d wanted for so long
to believe that miracles could happen in her life, but just when
she’d found herself damned to a life of loneliness, that’s
when Lucas came to her and she in turn revealed her heart to him
finding something magical that had evaded her for so very long.
Oh how wonderful it was to be in love with a man who truly loved
her in return. It had always been a dream for Sami--a dream that
she feared she’d never have come to life until Lucas had
given that dream back to her and made it the most beautiful reality
at long last.
Now as she checked the apartment, making sure everything was
in place, Sami felt smile tickle over her lips as she vowed to
make tonight a night that Lucas would never forget. Will was away
camping with his friends and with the theme of romance hanging
in the air, she was certain that there would be no way that Lucas
would dare resist her--not that he’d really try considering
that she’d worn something extra special for him, but still
she just wanted things to be perfect. Rushing over to the mirror
before her, she checked her hair, taking in her reflection as
the sheer black dress she was wearing spelled out seduction to
a tee. With that extra sparkle behind her smile, she could clearly
see the glow of a woman in love with a wonderful man--of a woman
who’d had the world ahead of her as it was Lucas that had
been the light at the end of a very long and seemingly never ending
tunnel of misery for her and tonight it would be Lucas whom she
would get lost within, making love endlessly until the morning
light lingered in over their passion spent bodies embracing them
with the promise of all the tomorrows that would follow them into
forever.
“Oh Lucas,” Sami couldn’t help but smile blowing
a kiss at her reflection as her grin expanded, “you’d
better appreciate all the effort I’ve put into making tonight
spectacular for you.”
She couldn’t help but laugh as she finished the words as
she was certain that Lucas would certainly appreciate all her
hard work and loving care, but still, she needed to do something
to get through the butterflies dancing around in her stomach as
her heart flooded with anticipation for the night at hand. Tonight
she was going to be with Lucas Roberts celebrating their six months
of understanding and awakenings and life couldn’t be more
perfect. As that thought carried over her, she felt herself bursting
at the seams, ready to lose herself to the passion and promise
of their time together when the doorbell rang and she nearly squealed
with anticipation.
“Ready or not Lucas, here I come,” she stated boldly
taking one last look at her reflection before she headed to the
door. She stopped momentarily placing her hand over her abdomen
as she tried to quell the feeling that had overtaken her as she
found herself nervous despite all that they’d shared with
one another. It seemed that she’d never be able to get over
the giddiness that he brought out in her, but then again she didn’t
want to bother with trying to rid herself of it either, she decided
as she opened the door prepared to make tonight’s fantasy
a reality.
“What took you so long handsome,” she questioned in
a low, sultry tone leaning up against the doorframe as she pursed
her lips batting her eyelashes at the man before her ready to
lay all her charms upon him, but as a silence carried over her,
she felt her jaw drop as the man on the other side was the last
person she’d ever anticipating seeing again in this lifetime.
“Samantha,” he spoke her name with the same tenderness
that had haunted her for so very long and in that instant Sami
realized that she’d just been delivered the most shocking
blow of her life as she could barely get a word out.
“Brandon,” she gasped realizing that destiny had thrown
her a curve that she never imagined would be possible ever again.
