Chapter Text
Sammie felt so alone. It had been a long time since she felt this alone. Of course she had Chris, but unfortunately he was back in Atlanta filming after the New Year. Kellie was busy tonight with her boyfriend, and her other friends all had families, so it was her and the dogs tonight.
Nothing was working on calming her mind. Nothing. She tried working in silence, with music on, and even the tv, but NOTHING was working on calming her down. It was then that she realized she hadn’t been to her therapist since school started. Things got hectic once the school year began, that she didn’t make it a priority.
Right then and there she broke down. She just let everything that had been building inside of her go. She did the best she could to choke back the sobs, not wanting the dogs to know what was going on and trying to comfort her. But it was no use. It was a damn that broke and there was no way to put it back up. Sammie had to let it run it’s course. Every bit of emotion was pouring out of her. Sadness, loneliness, aloneness, anxiety, and depression were wreaking havoc on her and it finally got to her.
Her entire body shook and she let the emotions flow through her. The dogs noticed her sobs hadn’t settled in a some time, and came to nuzzle their noses between her legs to let them know they were there for her. Sammie lifted her head up, and gave a weak smile to the pups. She scooted off the couch and onto the floor and welcome the dogs and their kisses as a sign of affection. At least someone loves me, right?, she thought to herself.
And it happened again. The tears began to fall as she realized she was still alone. She had the dogs, but she didn’t have another human to talk to. Sammie truly didn’t know what to do. And at the time she felt like crawling back into bed at only 3pm, she received a call from someone she’s been wanting to hear from all day.
“Hey baby.”
