Chapter 32

Five minutes later, after speeding to the hospital, Nick ran into the hospital and up to the nurses station where a little old women who was a volunteer was standing.

“Can you tell me what room Samantha Morgan is in?” asked Nick out of breath.

“Umm….” Said the old woman as she looked at the paper, “Oh we’re only suppose to tell family members.”

“Uhh alright I’m her cousin.” Said Nick.

“Immediate family.” Said the old woman.

“Alright I’m her cousin but I’m really her brother, damn what room is she in?” asked Nick.

“218.” Said the old woman as Nick ran over and hit the elevator and it opened. Nick looked up to see Jake standing there as he grabbed him back in the elevator and pushed him up against the wall.

“What the fuck did you do to her?” asked Nick out of breath as Jake looked at him.

“Missed her coming to New York?” asked Jake as Nick pushed him up against the wall again.

“She didn’t get attacked like your mother told me.. you did something to her didn’t you?” asked Nick.

“What makes you think that?” asked Jake.

“Uhh… I hate you.” Said Nick as he hit him and a security guard rushed into the elevator while it was on the second floor and separated them.

“He’s trying to attack me!” said Jake.

“Hell you did that to Sam!” yelled Nick, “You’ve done it before and you did it again!”

“Will you just get him out of here…” said Jake as Nick pushed the security guard away.

“I’m not going anywhere..” said Nick, “You might can control Sam, but you can’t control me and you won’t control her for much longer.” As he started down the hallway until he reached her room and walked in to see Samantha sitting there in bed with Megan in her lap.

“Nick..” said Samantha as Nick walked over to look at her. She had a big bruise on the side of her face and a few bruises on her arms and a busted lip.

“Are you okay? Jake did this didn’t he….” Said Samantha.

“Yeah… Megan and I was trying to leave to go to the airport and he came home early..” said Samantha as Nick looked down at Megan.

“That’s Megan?” asked Nick.

“Yeah..” said Samantha as Nick picked her up.

“Dude she does look like you..” said Nick as he held her, “You know what.. you’re not going back with him. Not think time. You cut your hair…”

“He won’t let me stay with you or anywhere…” said Samantha, “Umm yeah it’s shorter…”

“Sam, his mom said you just came to this morning, he knocked you out for like two damn days.. hell no you are not going back there. I don’t give a damn what you or him or whoever says, you’re not going back there.” Nick said as he handed Megan back to Samantha.

“He’s gonna make me.” Said Samantha.

“No.. you’re coming home with me. I’m gonna be home for a little while, you’re coming home with me.” Said Nick as Jake walked back into the room, “Get out!”

“You don’t have no right to be in here…” said Jake.

“Yes he does, I want him here.” Said Samantha, “Leave me alone Jake.”

“No.. the doctor is about to release you and we’re going home.” Said Jake.

“No she’s not. She’s coming with me.” Said Nick.

“You know, what you need to go back on your little stage and sing and leave us alone.” Said Jake.

“Hell no.. you see what you did to her?” asked Nick as he pushed Jake out in the hallway, “You know what, I’m not the little scrawny kid you use to beat up when we were little.. you can’t do shit to me anymore that I can’t do to you.”

“Really?” asked Jake, “You want her for yourself that’s all you want.”

“You know what..” said Nick as he started to whisper, “You’re damn right.. but for some fucking reason she loves you and you aren’t going to treat her the way that you do. So see that is why she’s coming home with me because if you dare lay one finger on her again, I’ll ruin my whole life, career, and everything else, but I’ll kill you.”

“Ohh Nicky’s getting mad huh?” asked Jake laughing.

“Damn right… so you might as well leave because they’re coming with me.” Said Nick.

“Fine, you tell her that if she leaves me, she’s not coming back…” said Jake as he started to yell, “You hear that Sam?”

“Yes, leave me alone!” yelled Samantha from inside her room.

“It’s not over.” Said Jake as he pushed Nick and walked off and Nick stood there watching him walk down the hall.

“No.. it’s not over.” Nick thought as he walked back into Samantha’s room.

“So I guess you can leave today.” Said Nick as Samantha tried to smile.

“Yep.” Said Samantha, “I tried to call my parents while Jake was gone but I couldn’t get in touch with them. Their number is back at the apartment.”

“Forget them.. they gave up on you, just forget them.” Said Nick, ‘You’re going home with me.”

“Nick… I can’t just …” said Samantha as Nick interrupted her.

“Sam, you’re not going back with him alright, you’re not.” Said Nick, “Damn look what he did to you.”

“Fine, okay.” Said Samantha, “I’ll go with you.”

“We can go somewhere else like Orlando if you’ll feel safer.” Said Nick.

“Nick, I’m not scared of him… if I was scared of him I wouldn’t have fought back and I wouldn’t be here in the hospital. I’m not scared.” Said Samantha.

“Fine, okay, we’ll stay here at my place.” Said Nick.

“Oh yeah, bunch of fans see a girl with a baby go in your place, oh lord, hell will break loose.” Said Samantha.

“Nah, nobody knows where I live yet…it’s secluded, shit Jake don’t know, so it’s all good.” Said Nick as Samantha smiled as he took Megan from her, “That’s right, so see.. tell your mama that we’ve got to get her ass out of here before that asshole comes back.”

“He’s not an asshole, he just has a bad temper.” Said Samantha.

“He did this to you.. he’s an asshole in my book.” Said Nick, “I’m gonna go see when we can get you out of here, because the sooner the better. Can I take her with me?”

“Sure.” Said Samantha as Nick smiled and walked out of the hospital room holding Megan to see Jake standing at the end of the hall.

“Shit..” Nick thought as Jake walked up to him.

“Just remember one thing..” said Jake.

“That you’re a asshole.. I already got that down.” Said Nick.

“No.. she’s mine. Both of them.” Said Jake.

“Yeah well, Sam’s with me now, so just excuse us and we’ll be buy to pick up her things shortly.” Said Nick as he walked past Jake who turned around and walked out.

A hour or so later, Nick, Samantha, and Megan were walking into Nick’s house. Samantha was holding Megan and a bag of theirs and Nick walked in with his arms full with bags, a playpen, and their other stuff.

“Damn son of a bitch, went and threw everything out the door.” Said Nick as he sat the stuff down in the kitchen where they came in at.

“Well at least he didn’t burn it all.” Said Samantha as she sat down on one of the stools at the bar.

“You okay?” asked Nick as he walked over and took Megan from her.

“That doctor told me I had a concussion so hell I’m gonna get dizzy some.” Said Samantha as she layed her head on the counter.

“I hate him I swear I do.” Said Nick.

“Nick I get the point okay…” said Samantha as she started to get up and felt dizzy again.

“Shit… just sit right there..” said Nick as he put Megan in her carrier and sat her on the kitchen counter, “And you stay right there, damn you look too much Sam, damn, stay there…” as he walked over to Samantha, “Uhh okay, come on, damn…” as he tried to pick her up.

“Damn what are you doing?” asked Samantha.

“Damn you’ve gained weight man, you’re heavy now.” Said Nick as he turned his back to her, put your hands around my neck and come on.” Said Nick as Samantha could barely do it and he lifted her up on his back and started into the living room and up the stairs.

“Sam, you’re going on a diet, damn…” said Nick.

“You’re a moron.. I can make it up here.” Said Samantha as Nick stopped and let her down, “And I’m only 5 pounds more than I was before I got pregnant thank you very much.” As she started up the stairs but almost passed out again.

“Make it up the stairs my ass.” Said Nick as he helped her up the stairs and looked around, “Shit.. I don’t know nothing my own damn house, damn…” as he opened his bedroom door and took her in and helped her up on the bed, “There just lay down and rest alright.. I’m gonna call the guys to come over some.”

“Bring Megan up here…” said Samantha.

“Okay… okay.” Said Nick as he stood there looking at her laying on her bed and shook his head.

“Damn..” Nick thought as he walked out of his room, downstairs and into the kitchen to see Megan sitting there in the carrier looking around.

“Hey, what you lookin’ for, think we left ya?” asked Nick as he picked her up, “Ya know, I’m gonna have to wind up kickin you’re dadd…. Wait I’m not even calling him that. He doesn’t deserve to be called that ya know it…” as he started back in the living room and stopped to look at Megan, “Come on….” As he walked back upstairs and into his bedroom to see Samantha sitting there.

“Aww there she is… umm I just realized I was in your bedroom.” Said Samantha.

“Yeah I know.. I’m not too sure about the other bedrooms and I know this one best…” said Nick.

“You don’t know what’s in the other bedrooms?” asked Samantha.

“Not really hell I’m never here.” Said Nick as he sat Megan down on his bed, “There ya go…”

“Okay well I’m just gonna stay up here, I’ve still got a headache and feel kinda dizzy…” said Samantha.

“Yeah, well you took that medicine right before we left the hospital so yeah you two take a nap or something… I’m gonna go downstairs and call some people alright.” Said Nick as he smiled, “Come on.. damn it smile, you look all sad.”

“Okay..” said Samantha as she tried to smile.

“There that’s a little bit better.” Nick said as he smiled, “I’ll be right downstairs, yell if you need something.”

“I will..” said Samantha as she smiled and Nick walked out of his room, leaving the door open and stood there beside it as he peeked in to see Samantha hugging Megan and he moved back so that they wouldn’t see him. He just stood there for a minute until he finally walked back downstairs and into the living room. He picked up the phone, dialing a number when he heard someone answer.
