Dear Diary,
It's been 1 week since Sam and I reunited. Everything since then has been great. With a few exceptions, Sam was acting very weird lately. He got upset over the smallest things and when he did he would start to shake like he was having a seizure, I would step forward to see if I can do anything to help but he would put his arm out and yell "Stay back Leah!" Stopping me instantly in my tracks. Afterwards he would just run out of my door and into the woods and I wouldn't hear from him for the rest of the day. When I would ask him where he'd gone he simply said "I just needed to clear my mind so I went for a run" then he would silence me with a kiss making me forget about everything I wanted to ask him. We would spend our days at the beach. Sam found a new hobby, Cliff diving. He tried to convince me to go but I wouldn't I wasn't scared or anything I just wasn't to fond about risking my life. So I watched him from the beach happy to see him happy. I smiled to myself thinking about Sam he was everything I wanted in a man and I was thankful everyday to have him in my life, he made me a better person. On this unusually sunny day I was waiting for Sam to hurry and pick me up. We where headed to the beach again. After the hundredth time he asked me to go cliff diving I finally gave in, on one condition we dive from a lower point than the very top of the cliff. He agreed and then he was so excited he picked me up and spun me around, he was happy he could share this experience with me. I heard a knock on the door and bounded down the stairs. I opened the door and said "Hey there handsome" I smiled. "Hey there cutie" he gave me a quick peck "you ready to go". "Nah I've only been waiting for almost an hour so there's no possible way for me to be ready" I said very heavy on the sarcasm. He snorted a laugh "Lets go babe before the sun goes away" I nodded grab my bag and left. "LEAH!!!" My mom yelled from the porch. I turned around to face her. "You and Emily haven't been spending time together, just a reminder that you have a cousin visiting and its rude to do things without her" I nodded and promised that I would do something with her soon. My mom was right, although I didn't forget about her I wasn't really doing much with her since Sam showed up again. As we got closer to the beach my nerves grew more and more, I was starting to think this was a bad idea. When we reached the lower point of the cliff I realized it wasn't as low as I wanted it to be. "Sam ummmm..I don't know about this" I said a little shaky. He pulled me into his strong arms. "Babe its going to be fine I promise. come on the first time we can jump together." I nodded and hung on tight to him, he put his lips to my ear and counted down. "3 2 1" he jumped and we where in the air with the fast approaching water beneath us.It felt amazing be up in the air like that I felt free. I let out a excited scream before the water hit us and swallowed us under. We where disentangled by the under water waves as we swam to top and found each other again, I smiled brightly at him. "So I'm guessing you like it?" he asked as he put is arms around my waist. I nodded as I wrapped my legs around him and put my arms around his neck. "Can we do it again?" He gave me his award winning smile and a peck on the lips. "I'll race you back" He said. I laughed, He was always so competitive, even with me. I let go of him and started to swim as fast as I could towards the beach. Of course he won but I wasn't to far behind. When I reached the beach I sat down for a second to catch my breath. Sam sat next to me and put his arm around me. "Your a slow poke babe" He laughed. I settled for a glare and he laughed some more. "Wait till I tell Jared about this" Jared's a friend of Sam's, they've become quite close lately. When I asked about it he said that "Jared just understands". I wasn't able to ask any more question the sound in his voice made it seem like he didn't want to talk about it so I let go, for now any way. I guess they shared the bond of being sick in the same kind of way. I think they also went to the gym together cause Jared was just as big as Sam was, I mean not that I was paying attention but it was kind of hard NOT to notice. After I my breathing slowed down I got up and made my way back to the cliff. I stood at the edge and told Sam to go first. "I wanna jump by myself this time but I want you to wait for me at the bottom" He smiled kissed me and flew onto the air doing a flip before he hit the water. Show off, I thought to myself. I waited for him to come up before hyped myself up to jump next, as soon as I was about throw myself into the air I heard my name being called. "Leah what are you doing?" Emily asked. I jumped and turned around "Emily you scared the crap outta me! what are you doing up here?" I asked her. "I was going for a walk and saw you up here. So I wanted to see what you where doing." She said mater of factly "Im cliff diving with Sam. Wanna join?" I asked her, remembering the conversation I had earlier with my mom so I figured id ask. "Leah come on!" I heard Sam yell from below. "Im coming" I yelled back. Emily joined me at the edge of the cliff looked down then back up. "Ummm no, I think I'll just wait for you down by the beach"She said "Ok I'll be there in a sec, then we can do something together". She smiled at the thought, nodded her head and left. I took a deep breath and jumped. It was much better this time, I felt the adrenaline rush more than I did before as I flew through the air. The next thing I knew the water came rushing past me. I stayed under for awhile just enjoying the feeling of no gravity, stupid I know but that's me I guess. As I reached the top strong arms wrapped around me and familiar lips touched mine. We kissed for awhile just enjoying the water and being with each other. I pulled away far to soon for my liking, remembering that my cousin was waiting for me on the beach. "Come on Sam, Emily's waiting on the beach for me" I pulled out of his embrace and started to swim, But he grab my arm and pulled me back to him. He stared at me with those beautiful eyes of his and smiled. "What?" I asked. "Nothing, I just Love You." He stated. My heart melted and skipped a beat. "I Love You to babe, I really do" I smiled and he brought his lips to mine again for a quick but passionate kiss. After I reminded him about my cousin we swam back to the beach. I could see Emily sitting down, She was reading some kind of book. She got up when she heard us coming. "Hey Em" "Hey Lee" She smiled. Sam came up next to me and wrapped his arm around me. "Emily this is Sam, Sam this is my cousin Emily" I heard a sharp in take of breath come from Sam, at the same time he dropped his arm. I stared at him and his face looked was as if he just received the best gift of all time. I looked in the direction he was staring and saw that he was looking at Emily. What the hell? Emily looked back at him confusion and wonder written on her face. "Do you two know each other?" I asked. "It's Emily" Sam said. "What about Me?" Emily asked in a whisper "Yeah Sam that's Emily my cousin, Now can you tell me what the hell is going on?" He didn't stop staring at her, there was a look of adoration on his face mixed with understanding wonder and confusion. I couldn't take it anymore I stepped in his line of vision making him look at me and when he did the look on his face made me want to cry. He looked at me with anger then apologetic before he settled on looking just lost. "I have to go"he said "No Sam tell me what's wrong!" I yelled "Im so so so sorry Leah" he said before taking off into the woods. "About what?!?" I yelled but I got no response. I turned back to Emily who was staring at the spot where Sam disappeared. What the hell just happened? I asked myself. One thing I did know, it wasn't anything good and just the thought made me sick to my stomach. ~Leah
