Alex & Sam by Jeniffer M (free novel reading sites TXT) 📕

my heart was biting like a humming bird. He slowly and gently pushes me back to catch our breath. He hugged me again gently and I could felt his heart hammering his chest, just like mine was doing it.

“I’m sorry Alex... I told you I could not promise you anything. Now, I just don’t know what to do. I really like you and … I will be flying to England soon”.

“Don’t be sorry. I would only ask you to stay with me until you have to go. Then you are free. I like you too Samuel and I want to kiss you as much as I can, hug you as much as I want. Then I will remember this summer for the rest of my life”.

“Will you Alex? Because I’m sure I will.”

“I will Sam, I always will.”

That was a magical night. The kisses and the hugs were endless. Around three in the morning Erick told us to get ready to return. We got to the house an hour later and everybody went to sleep. Sam gave me the best good night kiss I have ever had and then I dreamed of Samuel staying in California with me.

Next day the house was very busy. Everybody was packing and putting everything in its place and Mark and Gabriel were washing the cars. Around lunch time, everything was ready, so we all begin our trip returning home. Four hour later, Alice, Yami and I said good bye to Georges and Samuel and got Home.

Our parents were glad to see us again save and sound, and we have dinner with them. Yami sleep that night in my house and went home the next Day. The next four days before Samuel returned to England, we went to the movies, to the mall to buy some souvenirs for his mom and friends. We had dinner in my house and even make a good bye party.

The day of the party was the last time I saw him. His flight was the next day in the morning, but I didn’t want to see him in the airport. So that last night we celebrate. At the end, he gave me as a present a new cell phone. We exchange numbers and mails. Before he got in the car he kissed me for the last time. It was a light sweet little kiss, full of love and kindness.

“I will make you just one promise Alexandra Jones... I will always remember you!”

“And I will always remember you Samuel Campbell”.

After that, he called me for the airport to say good bye again. From time to time we send each other text message and mails. We talk a couple of times by phone, like good friends. But I was in love, with hopes and dreams, I secretly was waiting for him, to see him again and see his beautiful smile, and shiny eyes. So ten months had pass and the last three of them have gone without a text, or mail or call, or any news.

And now he is here, and is like nothing ever have happen between us. Nothing.

Chapter 2 The Truth

“A friend id always loyal, and a brother is born to help on time of need”
Prov-17:17

“Alex! ... Alex! ... Alexandra!!!”

“eh? ... Yami!”

I promised myself that I would move on. So when David invited me to be his date for Johnny birthday’s party, I said yes. Maybe I could use him to get over the “Sam matter” thing. Is was middle of May already. The day of the party, in the morning, a group of friend were setting up the place for the night. Yami ask me to help her and I went to help her.


“YOU DID WHAT!!” <Yami was mad at me for some reason that obviously I didn’t know!>

“Why are you yelling at me?

“Alex... some times... aahhrrr!! I want to kill you!!”

“What are you talking about!! Yami, I don’t want to be the fifth weal all the time. So I thought I could use some company tonight...” <She was bright red!! She really was angry!>

“I didn’t want to tell you but... Sam will be HERE.”

“WHAT?” < I asked with horror in my voice!> “WHY!?”

“He contacted Johnny to say hi last week and Johnny invited him to the party. He sent a text message to confirm that he’ll be here tonight.”<I was shock!! Now that I decide to move on he appears!! To confuse me again! To ruin my weak determination! >

“Why did Johnny invited him? Didn’t he know? Yami, didn’t you tell him?”

“Of course I did!! But Johnny said that it was his party and he will invite whoever he wanted!”

“Ohhh Yami!! And why didn’t you tell me BEFORE!!”

“Because this is your chance to ask him Alex, Sam knows you will be here, so maybe he is planning something, but if I said so to you, then you will find an excuse to not come to the party! ”

“Well, you got that right! I’m not coming!! <No way... I’m not ready yet!!>

“Oh no, no no no! You’re going to be here! You decide, come to the party or I will drag you to, but you are not backing down!” <Sometimes my best friend was so pushy...>

“... <sigh> ... ok... But I’m coming with David.” <If Sam knows I will be here why didn’t he invite me? This is no good...>

“You can come with the president if you want, but come to the party!”

“Ok” <I better get over it anyway. And I won’t be alone... That my help me” “Promise me that!” “I promise to come to the party.” “Tonight Alex, the party is tonight! So promise you will come TONIGHT!” <She really did know me well>

“Ok, Ok. Geez! I promise to come to the party tonight. There! Are you happy now?!”

“I’m not, not really, but whatever. See you later Alex.”


Johnny’s 18 birthday party was going to be the event of the year. His Parents rented a place that people normally use for big wedding and such. The DJ was going to be AJ, one of the best and famous DJ in California. And the invitation said semi-formal! So, no jeans!! I borrowed a dress from Alice closet. She wasn’t going to the party, anyway. The dress was indigo and with only one shoulder strap. It was short, above the knee and a little tight. I was going to wear silver killer high hills sandals and a silver mini handbag. I decide to wear my hair natural and only put a couple of pins to avoid the hair falling in my face all the time. My hair was longer now, only 3in above the waist. Light make up and French manicure and pedicure. Well... not every day the opportunity to go to a fancy party appears, so I better be pretty! But I was doing it to show Samuel what he was missing too.

David came to pick me up around 8pm. He was a nice guy and a good friend too. His hair was black and it made a nice combination with his blue eyes. He was tall and athletic; he was the captain of the softball team in school. He was wearing black pants and long sleeves shirt. On top of that was wearing a jacket. His tie was white with some patters. He was very handsome dress like that.

“Not fear Alex... You are stunning tonight.”

“Why, thanks David... you look very nice too! Every girl is going to envy me tonight” <I couldn’t help it, it was true and that was making fell more secure about this party.> “But I’m wearing high hills so maybe the look will break down a little later though.”

“Well, to be honest, I’m not very good dancer so maybe we put some balance there!” <He was chuckling and he really had a nice smile too.>

“It sounds good to me.”


We arrive to the party ant 8:30pm. Yami was waiting for me and only when she saw me stopped to pestering me with text messages. She was wearing a very tight red dress and shoes, and it was clear why Johnny didn’t let her go too far from his sight. She was beautiful. She didn’t look like a teen anymore; she was a young woman now. Johnny was wearing a black suit and shirt, his tie was red, matching Yami’s dress. They looked lovely together.

At 10pm almost the whole school was there and the party was ON. I was trying to have fun and forget about everything for just one night. Even when David told me that he wasn’t a good dancer, he wasn’t bad either. The music was nice, and around 11pm started a Brazilian show for Johnny, a gift from his eldest brother. The Brazilian girls came dancing samba in the rio-carnival outfit. Of course, the men in the party were drooling and the girls were just laughing at them for the dummy-face they all were wearing. At that moment my feet were killing me and I decide to sit in one of the chairs of the bar. I was watching the show from there alone, Yami was stick to Johnny and David was with his fans watching the show very close to the Brazilian girls. I asked a beer to the bartender and was about to sipped a little when I saw him in front of me and I froze. I couldn’t avoid checking him out from head to toes. He was wearing a white suit, jacket open, a black shirt without tie and at least 3 buttons undone. His hair was with that messy stile, and his face clean shaved. He was gorgeous, all except his eyes. There was no light in his eyes. Again his eyes reflected nothing but sadness.

“Umm... hey!” <I didn’t know what else to say! ... I was blushing and nervous!>

“Hello Alex… How are you?”

“Good. Thanks. And you?” <The conversation was awkward. Was this supposed to be the way people talk to each other after 4 month, with no happy feelings around?>

“Good... good. Mmm where is your Date?” <Of all the things he could has asked, he was asking for my date. I was a little disappointed.>

“I don’t know... he is somewhere in that craw watching the show.”

He stood there watching me. Staring at me and I began to feel even more nervous, like if that was possible. What was his problem anyway! Why appear in from to not really say anything?

“Are you really alright Sam?” <I asked him because it was obvious He was there for a reason, right?>

“Not really... I’ve been better.”

“Didn’t ... Didn’t you bring a date with you? I mean...”

“She is in the lady’s room.” <OH! So he did bring a girl. I felt hurt. So it was going to be like that, any other girl but me. I didn’t say anymore after that.>

“I wanted... I. I wanted to say sorry. And ... Well...” < he was trying to say something, but it didn’t make any sense to me. He didn’t finish either because HIS DATE, came back for the
