Shattered

Chapter Ten

Colby's POV

Coming home at around midnight I quietly shut the door. Brennen and I have hung out all day filming and shopping.

I look over to see the kitchen light is on and a glass shattered on the floor. I squint my eyes in confusion and walk down the short hallway where the bedrooms are.

"Sam?" I ask quietly. I knock on the door and hear movement inside, "Sam?" I say again. I hear the door unlock and it slowly opens. I'm now face to face to a crying and disturbed Sam.

"Sam? What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

"I s-saw something. It was in the living room. I thought I was going to be kidnapped or k-killed." Sam says as more tears go down his cheeks. I look at Sam with a sad look and turn around toward the living room.

Once I walk into the living room Sam slowly leaves and stops at the entrance.

"Can you tell me where it was?"

Sam points to the far right corner and I flick on the light. A long coat hanger reveals in the lightend room. He looks at it in disbelief and looks down.

"I'm a fool. God I'm so stupid. It was just a stupid coat hanger! I got scared over nothing!" Sam says throwing his hands in the air before he covers his face.

"I'm a idiot. Such a fucking idiot." He mumbles. I walk toward him and pull his hands away. He looks at me and I shake my head.

"You are not a idiot Sam. Anyone could of got scared by that." I say. He sighs and heads into the living room picking up the glass.

I quickly stop him and tell him to go sit down. He nods his head and sits down at the little island.

Once I cleaned up the mess I lean again the counter and look at him.

"Is there a reason though you freaked out so much?"

"I thought someone broke in. I thought I was going to be killed or kidnapped." He says quietly. I sigh and walk over to him. I give him a hug.

"Sam you are okay. No one is going to hurt you. Is that what's been bothering you latley?"

"I just....I can't go out Colby. I can't go in dark places. It scares me. I'm scared of our friends making fun of me. My face is all over the internet. I don't want to leave this apartment."

"It's not healthy for you Sam. You have to get out soon."

"No. I can't leave Colby. I want to but I can't. I feel safe here."

"Yeah when the lights are on. Sam it isn't healthy."

"Being pranked like that isn't healthy Colby." Sam says looking at me with a death look.

"I never wanted to hurt you."

"But you did."

"I've said sorry Sam. What more do you want? I miss hanging out with you. I miss when we go out and do something. I just want my best friend back." I say annoyed. Sam looks at me with a pained look.

"Well he's not here at the moment I guess. Apparently he's gone to hibernation. He'll back soon. Maybe you'll be glad when your best friend comes back right?

God Colby, Seriosuly? Well your bestfriend, cause you know I'm still here, is going to his room." Sam says angrily.

"You know I didn't mean it like that!" I yell after him, "I just miss you!"

"Well I'm right here so fucking talk to me then!" Sam says walking back down the hallway. He stands by the door and sighs, "stop leaving everyday and just fucking talk to me. Maybe you won't miss me anymore if you actually payed attention."

"Well if you actually grew up and finally went out for once I would be paying more attention. I'm sorry I have plans to do but I don't have time to constantly be sitting around waiting for you." I say angrily.

"Fuck you Colby."
