Never Be the Same
Chapter 18: Kendra's POV

I walked through the hallway quickly, turning into the guest room where Alana slept in her crib until her nursery was finished.
"I got her, don't worry," Sam reassured, cutting in front of me to the crib.
He slowly lifted the squirming, crying little girl, and hoisted her over his shoulder as he tried rocking her back to sleep.
"Shh," he soothed, rubbing up and down her tiny back, "Daddy's gotcha, it's okay."
Her cries deepened for just a brief second, before completely disappearing.
Her bright blue eyes, exactly like her father's, widened and became full of happiness again as she looked over Sam's shoulder at me.
I smiled, waving at her as I spoke in a high-pitched baby voice making her babble happily.
"Babe, can you do me a favorite and go grab my laptop from my desk, I'll finish my essay in here so I can get her to sleep." Sam finally said, cradling our daughter as he took a seat on the guest bed.
I eyed him momentarily. The two of us hadn't been on "talking terms" for the past two days.
I was actually surprised he was even noticing my exsistence, let alone speaking to me.
With the rush of us trying to move into Sam's parents travel apartment together, and Alana's arrival, and schoolwork, both of us were completely irratable with each other.
It was obvious all Sam was trying to do now was avoid a fight in front of the baby, and I wasn't going to argue with that.

I liked this relaxed, normal us right now, not the exhausted, cranky, stressed out us that agrue over nothing and usually are around 95% of the time.
But, I knew if she was asleep right now, and we were talking somewhere else, we'd already have our voices raised at each other.
"Yeah, sure Sam." I said with a quick smile as I left the room.
I shut his laptop and grabbed off of our bed, and walked back into the guest room, handing it to him.
Sam happily took it and placed it beside him.
"You're the best, babe. I love you." he grinned, pecking my lips.
At that moment, I felt as if everything was back to how it was between us, right before Alana came.
Not that it was a bad thing that she was here now, things were just more stressful with a baby around.
But that second felt like we were two normal 19 year olds living together while we're still in college, not a care in the world rushing through our mind.
However, I knew it was all an illusion, an act he was putting on around our daughter only.
For all I know, that simple kiss may mean nothing to him anymore. He probably just feels obligated to be with me, since we have Alana together now.
"I love you too, Sam." I said, before taking a seat beside him.
I watched for a moment as he stared intently at the computer screen, before beginning to type.
I decided to take Alana away from him to let him get some work done, so I picked up the baby, and sat down across the room in the rocking chair we also brought in here earlier last week.
I admired her onesie that Dana, Jamie, and I bought for her, just the other day when we all went to the mall together.
I felt a pair of eyes on me, and looked over to Sam, who was watching as I played with Alana with a smile upon his face.
"What?" I asked, suddenly feeling self-conscious.
His face softened up, and he sighed as he shut his laptop, "I hate fighting with you, Kendra." he finally confessed, after two days.
I turned my focus away from Alana, and looked up over to Sam.
"Yeah, and?" I asked, cueing for him to keep on going.
"And I'm sorry I've been such a complete jerk to you lately. I'm just too stressed to even think straight, you know?" he replied.
I looked down at the baby resting on my shoulder, seeing she was back asleep.
I stood up, completely forgetting about Sam for a moment, and carefully put her into her crib.
"I know, Sam. I know." I finally replied, folding my arms over my chest.
"So, does that mean you forgive me?" he asked, his eyes opening wider as his eyebrows raised with hope.
I shook my head, and his face immediately fell down to an upset frown.
I smiled, crawling up beside him, and kissing his lips.
"That means I forgive you." I grinned as I pulled away.



Bleeeeh, this is getting pretty boring so far, but it'll be better:)
