Who: Samantha Ackerly and Shane Capper
What: Sam goes to visit Shane
Where: Hospital Wing
When: November 6th
Rating: G or PG
Status: In progress



As soon as she write her last comment to Shane, Samantha closed her journal and told her dorm mates that she would be back later. Grabbing a small back and putting in a few sweets, she headed out from the dorm. As she walked, she tried to think of what she should say to Shane. 'Hi Shane, watching get hurt yesterday really scared me, did I mention I think I fancy you?' Oh yes, that sounded very stupid in her head. Samantha wasn't even sure if she should take Gianna's advice and tell him. He seemed to be really confused about something, well girls. She was sure that he was having girl problems, maybe he didn't even like her? Merlin, how stupid would she feel?

Once she entered the Hospital Wing, Madam Pomfrey seemed to have popped out of now where and demanded what she was doing here. You could always tell when she had a lot of work to do, she was always a bit cranky. "Oh um, I'm here to see Shane..Capper." Pomfrey nodded and told her not to stay too long and pointed her in the right direction. After thanking her, Samantha quickly moved away from the lady and found Shane's bed. Ugh. She didn't like seeing him like this. Possibly the worst part about Quidditch, she didn't like seeing her friends hurt like that.

"Shane," Samantha said as she sat down next to him. "Um- How are you feeling?"

Shane's head spun as he laid back, starring at the ceiling. He hadn't looked in the mirror yet, but he could feel his face was swollen around his right eye and bottom lip. He was glad that Sam was coming to visit him and scared of his loopiness at the same time. He had had a few visitors like his brother and such...but most of them he couldn't remember because Madam Pomfrey had just set the bones back in place in his wrist so that the potion could mend them, so it all was a blur of pain. The only thing that hurt him now was his ribs and his head, but other than that he was okay. He was in the middle of Lily and Fred and got caught in the crossfire a few times.

He leaned his head up off the pillows when he heard her voice. A smile came to his face. His mixed feelings seemed to vanish. He scrathed his head nervously and cleared his crocky voice to speak clearly. "Samantha! Hey! You came! Not that I thought you wouldn't...it's just...nice...nice to see you...I'm going to stop talking now..." Shane slowly tried to sit up but decided that wasn't so much of a good idea. He clinched his jaw. "I'm alright...I just want to get out of here," he stated trying to not make it sound like he was in pain. He didn't want to seem like a baby.

Samantha couldn't help but smile. She liked that he seemed really pleased to see her. "It's fine, I like it when you talk." Her face flushing slightly. "Oh, before I forget, I brought you something. I wasn't sure what you'd like so I just-" Realizing she was probably rambling on like he was. "Anyway here, some chocolate." Placing the bag on the night stand next to his bed.

"Well, then lets hope you get better soon then."

"When I talk...I usually dig myself into a hole," Shane stated with a tiny smile. He noticed her blush and it made him happy. It encouraged him. "For me?" He asked acting girly. Then he got serious again. "Thank you...but again...you didn't have to do this...you are too good to me," he said quietly. His eyes were glued to hers. She was very attractive, Shane noticed this all over again. "Would you like to share?" He asked opening the bag of chocolates and peaking inside. He was half tempted to throw one at Fred.

"Well then I say it's a good thing that you're really improving your talking skills then." Samantha giggled softly and nodded as he took the back. Then rolled her eyes to his next comment. "I know but you know, call me a softy but I like helping people I care about." Giving him another nervous smile. She really wished she'd shut up.

"Sure," She replied as she reached into the bag to pull out a chocolate frog.

He nodded his head in agreement as she spoke. Shane found it incredibly hard to concentrate. His mind was spinning a thousand miles a minute. He liked Sam, but he also like Rosalie too. Sam was beautiful, sweet, and intellegent. He was comfortable with her.

"So you care about me, huh?" He couldn't hold his curiousity back. Shane pulled out a chocolate frog as well, but most of his attention was on her and not on his food so the frog hopped away.

Samantha didn't notice that his frog had hopped away, actually someone in a clown suit could walk by and she wouldn't have noticed. Her heart raced slightly as she tried to hide her sudden nerves.

"Well, um..you- yeah, of course I do." Bah! Samantha would give anything to run and hide herself right now.

It must have been the pain medication they had given him because he was not nervous at all. He was relaxed and calm and slightly enjoying her squirm for a change. He was curious to see what she was so nervous about. Shane gave her a warm smile and placed his right hand under his head.

"Stupid frog," he mumbled under his breath. Then he reached his hand in the bag and got another piece of chocolate. "Thanks again for the sweets," he said, filling in the short silence. Shane was usually a silence maker, not a filler. "What are you thinking about?" He asked her, wishing he could read her mind.

"You're welcome." Samantha replied as she took a bite of her own chocolate frog. "Thinking?" Samantha never did like it when someone asked her what she was thinking because either her mind would go blank or a million thoughts would suddenly enter her mind.

This time, her mind had decided to go blank. "Well," she started to say, trying to think of something. "Funny, but I was actually wondering what you were thinking." There, that was a safe way out.

"Now that is interesting," he commented, sighing deeply. "Well...I was thinking about the Quidditch game...maybe you could help me...I remember chasing after the snitch...I was so close...I could touch it...and I stood on my broom...balancing like a Muggle surf board or soemthing...and that's all. I couldn't have fallen...that was one of my signature moves. Do you know?" Shane bit his lip, starring off into space. He tried his hardest to remember...but his mind was blank. He just remembered waking up in the hospital bed.

"Yeah," pausing for a moment. Hoping that she would forget that stupid match. A lot of her friends got hurt pretty badly. "You were doing brilliant, actually. Then the two Beaters from Slytherin.." Samantha bit her lower lip, seeing the images in her head. "I couldn't tell exactly what was happening, I was watching you, but then I saw two bludgers just knock into you. You would have fell, I can't remember who it was but one of the Professors they s-stopped you."

It was obvious that she was worried about him. It was one of the worst things she's ever seen. "I don't think the bludger actually hit your head, I think you would have been worse off."

Shane listened to her intently. He could tell it hurt her to relive the incident, so it must have been bad. Butterflies swarmed in his stomach when she told him she was watching him. He would remember that later, when he would be on the field and suddenly screw up. But Shane was different when he played. He was focused and blurred out everything but the game.

Gritting his teeth, a streak of anger pulsed through his veins. But he let it go. He would find out who. Shane was quiet and shy and had a horrible time talking to the opposite sex, but he was also strong and not afraid to get into a fight. Many people had underestimated him in the past. Just because he was quiet didn't mean he was scared to throw a few punches. He got it from his dad.

But Shane threw back his harsh feelings and focused in on her. "I'm sorry," he apologized, really meaning it this time. "I'm sorry it scared you...but I'm fine...a few broken bones..." He gave her a reassuring smile. "I should be out in about two days...I'll have to walk around in crutches until my ankle heals...there is not much they can do for a spain..." His eyes darted to her hand and slowly he took it. Then his eyes met hers. His heart pounded as he held her hand.

Samantha's heart pounded when he took her hand, but she wasn't going to let her nerves ruin anything. "It's okay, I know it's not your fault, it's Quidditch, wouldn't be what it was without a little pain and suffering, right?" Samantha smiled, remembering when she had a sprain when she was younger. "I had to do that once, it was fun at first but after a while your arms get a little sore."

There was something she wanted to ask him, but she wasn't sure what he wanted to talk about so she wasn't sure if she should bring it up. "Oh, um I was going to ask you. You asked a few days ago if I wanted to talk, was there something that you wanted to talk about? Or did you just want to hang out?"

Shane swallowed hard and took a deep breath. She sounded so serious. "I-I..." that was the first time he stuttered all day. "I just wanted to talk, you know...With you...I can...kinda open up, you know? You...make things less confusing sometimes. I have a habit of blowing things out of proportion...and yet ignoring the big things..." He rubbed his eyebrow above his right eye and looked around the room. His head pounded as a million thoughts scattered his brain. Who did he like more? He looked down at his hand that was holding hers. The decision was made. He knew exactly who to chose, if she felt the way he thought she did.

Samantha noticed it, he was stuttering again. For the most part he was pretty good at not acting like that towards her. Like he said, he was doing better with talking to her without being so nervous. Which didn't help her at all at the moment, his sudden nerves made her a little nervous too.

"Really?" Samantha said with a small smile. "I don't know how I do that, but I'm glad."

Focus Shane, come on. Stop acting like an idiot. He mentally coached himself. He rubbed his chin, thinking. "You know how we were talking about...how it's hard to find out how someone feels about you...and how it's best to ask...but that is so much easier said than done. When you put yourself out there like that, you risk...dissapointment, humiliation...and all sorts of bad can come of it..." He looked down at the bed in which he was laying in, trying to pick the best words to say. "I wish there was just a way you could know..."

"Oh," was all Samantha could manage to say. She wasn't exactly sure what to say to this. Her heart was pounding harder now and she was sure that he would be able to hear it. "Trust me, I know how that feels." Samantha said slowly. Was he trying to tell her something? What if he was talking about someone else? She couldn't take that risk and just flat out tell him right? Maybe this time he would just have to come in say it. Save her from being humiliated.

"I..I think that..um." Crap! She couldn't get anything out. Merlin, why did this have to be so bloody hard. Sucking in her bottom lip, she bit on it gently, trying to figure what to say and how to say it.

It was cute to see her like this. A smile appeared on his face, spread across his lips, and lit up his face. "Sam...I...uh...I thought I was bad at not finishing my sentences," he chuckled. His chest rose and fell with every deep breath. Blood pounded through his veins and he swallowed down his doubt. He would do it. So what if she turned him down. She made him feel spectacular, for the entire time she was there, Rosalie had left his mind completely.

"Samantha Ackerly...I...I haven't been able to stop thinking about you since the Ball...actually...since before then. I like you...and it's okay if you don't feel the same...just...tell me the truth...just like it is...no sugar coated sweetness. Just exactly how you feel."

His words spat out of his mouth at a wickedly fast pace. He took a deep breath. It was done...he couldn't take it back.

Samantha repeated his words in her mind slowly. I like you.. It really took her strength to stop her from giggling like an idiot. She would definitely have to wait till she got to her dorm to do that. This was probably the happiest she felt, besides when she first read Pride and Prejudice, she nearly squealed when Mr. Darcy confessed his feelings for Elizabeth.

"Really? I..wow." She was at a lost for words. Though the smile on her face hopefully told him that she wasn't upset about his confession at all. Squeezing his hand gently, she looked back to Shane. "I..I really like you too, Shane."

"Really?" Shane asked her attempting to sit up. He forgot all about his broken ribs and let out an "ahh!" Slowly, he leaned back. Blood seemed to rush to his head. "You, you like me too?" He asked her again. Excitement bubbled in his stomach. He was still breathing deeply. Raising her hand to his lips, he kissed it softly. Never had he been so relieved.

Samantha nodded, she was so insanely happy at this moment. Her face went red as he kissed her hand. She could feel her stomach going in knots. There was something she wanted to do. Something that she didn't feel brave enough, well really until now. Taking a deep breathe, she leaned over, carefully not to hurt him and kissed him on the lips.

"S-sorry, just..you know..kinda wanted to do that."

When her lips met his, an electric shock ran though him. He had never expected it...she just kissed him. Slowly he raised his tan hand to her cheek.

When she broke the kiss, his blue eyes starred up at her in amazement. He breathed heavily and it hurt his ribs. "I think I'm rubbing off on you," he stated about her apologizing.

Samantha laughed a little and just shrugged. "Don't know what's gotten into me, really." Her heart was racing, it took a couple of deep breaths before she was able to calm down again.

"Was it okay?"

Shane put on his cocky face and stated, "Well I have that affect on people." He laughed, unsuccessful at trying to be cool. Laying back against his pillows, he put his right hand under his head, looking up at her.

"Yeah!" He bursted out, trying not to laugh at her question. "I thought so...did you think so?"

Tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, she let out a few small giggles when he bursted out like that. "Oh yea, I thought so too." Instantly she had felt better, her nerves weren't so tied up in knots now.

"...Good. I'm...uh...glad we agree," Shane mumbled. His eyes were wide and intense as they starred up at her. He had taken her completely by suprise. Rosalie who? Now that he had a taste of her kiss he wanted another.

Madam Pomfrey walked by, muttering who knows what under her breath. Then she walked by again and stopped at the foot of his bed, tapping a bottle of medicine with her fingernail. That was her signal to Sam that it was time for her to leave. Shane closed his eyes and moaned. He didn't want her to leave him yet.

Samantha opened to mouth to say something, but when Madam Pomfrey came by, she closed it quickly. She could tell that her visiting time was up, she looked over at Shane, biting her lower lip gently, not wanting to leave him. But she didn't want to get into trouble, she she gave him an encouraging smile.

"You should probably rest, I don't want to keep you up." Squeezing his hand gently she leaned over to give him a small kiss on his forehead. "Feel better soon. I'll see you when you get out."
