Sam appeared nonchalant, but his fingers clenched on the steering wheel, revealing his emotion.Still, he soon drove steadily into Saunders Mansion, and Quinn helped Ryan out of the car.He was basically leaning his whole body against her, and they appeared intimate—even trained—probably because they were used to doing that.Everyone headed to the drawing room, with Marvin and Lindsay feeling a little nostalgic.It had been over two weeks since they had been home, and they did not really sleep soundly on a different bed—one always finds better comfort in their own bed.That was why Marvin and Lindsay immediately went back to their rooms to sleep.With Ryan saying he was tired as well, Quinn wheeled him to his room.No one else was in the living room save for Sam, who sat there waiting.He could have left, but he promised Ryan to wait since Quinn had something to say.He kept waiting without knowing how long it would take—maybe she and Ryan were already asleep and would sleep a

Sam basically never showed up around Quinn through the next month. When his parents asked him multiple times to return home for dinner, Sam would refuse, saying he had to work overtime.In reality, everyone in the family knew Sam was just refusing to go.On the other hand, Ryan was recovering well—the family doctor came in every day to check on his progress, and he could use a prosthetic at the rate he was recovering.The Saunders were pleased with that, while Quinn was constantly by his side, helping him with rehab and spending time with him.One day, Quinn got a call from Zoe, asking her to have dinner at her place.Zoe complained that since she would be giving birth soon, and that also meant postpartum care would soon follow—she would not be able to eat anything as she liked, and she wanted to have her fill before that.Quinn thought she should let loose a little as well.She had no idea if she had been stressed lately, but there was simply nothing to look forward to, so sh

Zoe: [Honestly, these two are as stressful as me and Jay back in the day.]Cordy: [At least you're self aware.]Zoe: […We're getting off-topic, sister.]Cordy smiled. [Let Quinn indulge a little tonight. We can talk to her tomorrow.]Zoe: [Fine.]And with that, Quinn drank five beers on her own that night—it was basically her limit, and she lay sprawled, her head muddled.Both her stomach and her heart hurt, and she really felt frustrated.She needed to vent, but she had been keeping a lid on it because she was the type who never cried no matter how bad things got.Whether it was her parents dying when she was a child and leaving her with no refuge, she could never reveal her true self."That's about enough," Zoe told the others right then.Cordy echoed, "It's late, Johnny. We should get home soon too."Now basically a slave to the missus, John would spit out the alcohol he was just chugging if Cordy so much as said it.As he hurried home with her, Zoe shot Bob a look, who

Sam suddenly felt like he was intoxicated, and so much so that he could not differentiate between dreams and reality.After who knows how long, Quinn finally pulled away, though she kept staring fixedly at Sam.He was docile for once, not moving and allowing her to kiss him as much as she wanted."Is my kissing that bad?" she asked.Hell, no!He was excited he could explode and did not dare to respond because he might pin her down, and the rest went without saying…Even so, Quinn pressed, "Tell me! What am I lacking? I'll change, okay?!"Sam gulped—he was not that calm.Quinn was lighting a fire in him that could not be extinguished!"Quinn…" He groaned and tried to push her away, only for her to kiss him again!Sam's temple veins were bulging—the woman was really playing with fire!If this went on… No!But he could not push her away, and Quinn was basically doing everything she wanted to him!Sam's fingers stiffened right then—an unruly, dainty hand had reached beneath

At that very moment, Quinn spotted a glass of water and a pill.There was a note under it that read 'morning after pill'.Quinn stared at the pill and the glass, understanding how it felt to have her parade rained on just then.Her chest ached, but Sam's meaning was clear—last night was just a moment of impulsiveness between two adults.No responsibility would be taken, no sentiment would be retained.Quinn picked up the pill and laughed miserably.-Quinn only returned to Saunders Mansion at noon.Her phone was out of juice as well, so she had no idea how many times Ryan would have called her by now.As soon as she stepped inside the drawing room, she found Ryan glowering at her, clearly angry.On the other hand, both Lindsay and Marvin were clearly concerned. "Where have you been, Quinn? Why did you turn off your phone? We called Zoe, who said you left with Sam, but Sam said you weren't with him when we called him. Where did you go? Are you alright?!"Quinn stared at them
