Sam yawned as he woke up, rubbing his eyes. When Sam woke up, he felt something in his arms... Only to see it was someone instead, a familiar ginger.

Anya... He gently kissed her forehead. Anya smiled in her sleep, slowly turning into him a little. Sam smiled softly before looking around the room.

Something felt different. Nothing had really changed but the vibe in the room just felt... Weird. It almost felt like he was being watched but... That wasn't possible. Sam shook his head, weird...

Sam was pulled away from his thoughts when Anya began to wake up.

"Morning darling." Sam whispered.

"I didn't sleep that long, did I?" Anya held her head.

"I don't think so, I didn't check." Sam stretched.

Anya checked her phone and let out a sigh of relief,"Not that long."

"Right, I have to go check on everyone." Sam let her go.

"Sammy." Anya groaned.

"What?"

"One more minute?' Anya held him.

Sam sighed and kissed her forehead,"But Dick left me in charge."

"But cuddles are nice." Anya hummed.

"I know." Sam sighed.

Anya held onto Sam, looking up at him.

Sam squeezed her tightly,"Fine, cuddles. But I'm not sleeping."

"I won a cuddle, I'm happy now.' Anya chuckled.

Sam rolled his eyes,"Yes, yes- Hang on... Did you sit those papers there?"

Anya looked at him,"What papers?"

"Those ones on your desk."

"Is this a distraction to get me off?"

"No, I'm serious." Sam pointed.

Anya sighed and got up, going to her desk and lifting up the papers before she quickly put them down.

"What's wrong?" Sam quickly sat up.

"It's uh... Where- I don't know where these came from." Anya collected the papers, her breathing quickening.

"Hey, hey, Anya. Breathe, okay?" Sam got up and walked up to her

"Are you sure you didn't find these?" She turned to him.

"Of course not- I don't even know what they are."

"They're... Medical records."

"Medical records?" Sam raised a brow,"Whose?"

"Mine." Anya slowly held them out,"When I- I got kidnapped for the first time."

Sam pulled Anya into a hug,"Shh.."

"They- They should've been destroyed, I burned them. It has... It has pictures, Sammy." She hugged him.

"You're safe now, I promise." Sam rubbed her back,"I'll go get rid of them."

"How did they get here?" Anya whispered as her tears began to fall.

"I don't know, darling. I don't know." Sam gently wiped away her tears.

Anya shook her head,"Fuck."

Sam kissed her forehead,"It'll he alright."

"What if it's not? First it was your poster, now it's this?"

"I'll go check with the others, see if they've got any suspicious items."

Anya nodded slowly as she grabbed her blanket, wrapping it around herself.

"I'll be back as quickly as I can.' He rubbed her arm.

"Okay." Anya whispered, sitting down.

Sam kissed her cheek and walked out into the corridor. He furrowed his brow, already hearing what he thought was some disagreement. When he walked through, he saw most of the originals minus Dick, Kory, Rachel and Jason.

"What's going on?" Donna walked in.

"Someone drew crucifixes on Rachel's mirror and she thinks Jason did it." Dawn sighed as the pair walked in.

"Jason wouldn't do that. He's a dick sometimes but he wouldn't do that." Sam crossed his arms

"I know he did it, Sam." Rachel pointed.

"I didn't do shit, don't blame me for her voodoo issues." Jason scoffed.

"Look, let's all just talk calmly about this. I'm sure this is all just a big misunderstanding-" Sam tried to calm the situation.

Only... Hank joined in,"Yeah, cute idea with the bourbon bottle. Not my type though, I'm more of a sour mash kinda guy. You ever go in my room and pull that shit again, I'll forget what team you're on."

"Look- I don't know what happened you guys but I didn't do it." Jason shook his head.

"What about the picture of Ellis?" Dawn asked.

"The orange soda bottle?" Donna sighed.

These were all the most random things, they all meant something to each one of them. Jason simply couldn't know all of their secrets.

"Guys, listen to me, this doesn't make any sense." Sam interjected,"How is Jason supposed to know that all these things means something to you? Nevernind that, how'd he get his hands on them so quickly?"

"You think everything is my fault." Jason shook his head as the lift pinged.

"No, Jason wait-" Sam went to walk after him.

As Sam went to walk after him, Dick walked out of the lift with... A gun?

"He's here." He whispered.

"Who's here?" Donna questioned.

Sam saw the gun and shook his head, running up after Jason. To... The roof.

"Be careful, my boy." He heard Bruce from behind him as he ran to the roof.

When he got to the roof, he saw one of his worst nightmares. Jason... He was on the ledge, just standing there looking down. He was gonna jump...

"J-jason?' Sam spoke slowly.

Jason took a second before he spoke,"I keep falling."

"P-please, just... Step away from the edge." Sam slowly walked up to him.

"It won't stop."

"Listen to me, it'll be okay. I promise." Sam assured him.

"Bruce wasn't the first one to try and help me, you know? I can make a list. Relatives, teachers, cops... Even you, Sam. Nobody has been up to the task. I... I got a poison in me. Shit spreads, it can affect even the healthiest people."

"Jason, I'll always be here for you, even on your bad days." Sam sat down on the ledge,"I've... I've been here before."

Jason slowly looked down at him.

"There were times, at the manor, where I just wanted to quit, to stop. I was never good enough for Bruce, no matter how hard I tried." Sam looked down.

Jason sighed,"Then... I came along and made it worse."

"Jason... Look, I blamed you but that's because I was stupid, I was being selfish." Sam shook his head,"I... I used to watch videos of you training to help me practice."

Jason turned to him, the best he could,"Me?"

"Obviously I watched stuff with Dick and Bruce but I preferred watching you, there was something... Different."

"I'm not that cool, am I?" He sighed.

"You are though, I... I wanted to be like you." Sam looked up at him.

"I'm a bad role model.'

"You could argue the same thing for Bruce, even Dick. I mean, they left me all alone in that manor when I needed him." Sam sighed.

"He did it to me after you left... Started leaving me."

"I was just... Really angry." Sam shifted closer to Jason,"I didn't want you to feel like I did."

Jason bit his cheek, hesitating before he stepped down.

Sam got up and hopped back onto the roof,"Please don't do that again.."

Jason shook his head and hugged Sam. Sam hugged back tightly, hiding his face in Jason's shoulder.

"Jason, Sam?" Dick ran up to them,"Oh my god."

"It's okay, helped... I... I did good." Sam nodded slowly.

Dick sighed and patted their backs,"I... I gotta talk to you guys."

Sam nodded again,"Let's go, Jay. I won't let them shout at you."

Jason nodded slowly as the brothers walked downstairs. Sam looked around, everyone was gathered aside from Anya. He guessed it must've been important. Anya finally showed up, walked slowly over to a table and sat down.

"What's going on?" She asked.

"Dick said he has something important to tell us." Gar shrugged.

Anya nodded slowly as she sat back. Once everyone was in the room, Dick stood up and sighed.

"I lied. I lied to you guys because I was afraid you'd leave this place... And me. And if that happened then there would be no Titans." He turned to the Originals,"And I lied to you too. I told you that Jericho was dead when I got to the church but he wasn't, he was alive... He died trying to save me from his father." Dick crossed his arms and looked down,"I'm sorry, you all deserve better."

"Fuck this, man." Jason shook his head and he began walking off.

"Jason-" Sam turned to him.

"I'm sorry, Sam.' He sighed.

Rose looked at them all before she quickly ran after Jason. All hell began to break loose, Hank had punched Dick, people were leaving everywhere. Sam hurried to Dick's side and hugged him, he'd never leave him.

Dick sighed and patted Sam's back,"..Give me a minute, Sammy. I'll be back."

He ruffled his hair slowly before he walked off. Sam sighed and shook his head, leaning against the counter.

"Sam?" Anya walked up to him.

"Anya?"

"Can I talk to you?" She took his hands.

"Of course." Sam nodded.

Anya stroked his hands slowly,"I... I want to stay here but with Deathstroke being in my room- I can't."

"So... You're leaving too?"

Anya looked down and kissed the back of his hands,"I don't want to, I want to be with you but I know you want to be here for Dick."

Sam kissed her cheek,"Go."

"You're not mad?"

"Of course not, I want what's best for you." Sam smiled softly,"If this is what you want, I won't stop you."

Anya sighed and hugged Sam, tightly.

Sam rubbed her back and kissed her forehead,"Be careful, okay?"

"I'm gonna keep in contact, I'm not disappearing." Anya assured him.

"I know, just want you to be safe." Sam poked her nose.

"You gotta promise you're safe too, I don't want you getting hurt."

"I'll try my best."

"No, you don't get hurt. Or I'll come back and smack you." Anya pointed.

Sam chuckled,"Okay, okay. I won't."

"Good." Anya kissed his cheek.

Sam smiled,"Go on, good luck."

Anya squeezed his hands before she walked off. Sam waited until he was sure Anya had left before he slid down the counter, looking down.

After a minute he felt an arm wrap around his shoulders,"I'm not going anywhere."

Gar. Sam looked at Gar and clung on tightly.

"I'm staying." He sighed.

"Thank god, I don't know what I'd do without you."

"I'm the best." Gar hummed.

"You are."

"You wanna stay like this for a bit more?"

"Mhm, until Dick gets back." Sam nodded.

Gar nodded and leaned his head on Sam's shoulder.

*********************************

Sam was in the kitchen, nibbling on some cheese. Cheese made him feel better.

"I need to talk to you." Dick pointed at Sam to follow him.

"What is it, bro?" Sam asked, waking after him.

"Can you grab Gar?"

"Uh, sure." Sam nodded, jogging off to get Gar.

Gar was laying in his room, hanging upside down.

"Babe." Sam flopped onto the bed beside him,"Dick wants to talk to us."

"About what?"

"Dunno, he told me to get you."

"Alright." Gar got up.

Sam hummed and walked back through with Gar. When they walked through, they saw Dick packing?

"Uh, what are you doing?" Sam questioned.

"I gotta go.' Dick sighed.

"Go?" Sam froze.

"Uh- Everyone else left, doesn't that mean you don't have to?" Gar questioned.

"I fucked up, guys." Dick shook his head.

"Okay... But you admitted it and apologised. What- What more can you do?" Gar shrugged.

"Yeah- You don't need to leave." Sam agreed.

"So what are we supposed to do if you're going?"

"Hold down the fort, I know you two can do it. This place basically runs itself anyway. You got any questions, there's a manuel in the tech room." Dick walked out.

"But Dick-" Sam stopped, there was no point.

"Wait, I have a question." Gar pulled Sam,"What about the big, unconscious, naked dude down the hall?"

"Just-Make sure he's stable. He'll probably want to see his dad when he walks up, you know Bruce's number. I'm sure he can arrange that." Dick called back.

"So he and Bruce are... Like..." Gar chuckled.

"I'll be back, okay? I'm only gonna be away a few days."

"Yeah, right." Sam muttered, crossing his arms.

"Sam." Dick looked at him.

"Go on. Leave me again. I don't mind."

"It's not like that-'

"Go." Sam looked away, he didn't want to show Dick that he was starting to cry.

Dick hesitated before he pressed the lift. Sam turned and stormed off to his room, slamming the door behind him.
Gar looked between the two, going after Sam. Sam sank to the floor in his room, holding his head.

"Sam?" Gar walked in and crouched beside him.

"Why doesn't he want to stay?" Sam asked quietly,"Why does he always leave?"

"Im sorry, Sam." Gar sighed and hugged him.

"He always leaves.." Sam shook his head.

"He'll come back."

"He can stay away if he's just going to leave again."

Gar shook his head,"Let's go watch a movie."

Sam rubbed his eyes,"Which one?"

"Any one you'd like." Gar hummed.

Sam smiled,"Thanks Gar."

"Anytime Sammy."

Sam kissed his cheek, leaning against him.

*********************************

Anya went from shelf to shelf in the kitchen fridge. There was nothing to eat. Jason and Rose decided to break into one of Bruce's safe houses... With hardly anything to eat.

"Looks like we're gonna need to go out and try to get some food." Rose glanced over.

"You and Jason can do it, I'm not third wheeling anymore." Anya sighed.

"Whatever you say." Jason shrugged, zipping up his jacket.

"Seriously. If you're gonna go about having sex in a different room each hour, let a girl know. My eyes need bleached." Anya sat down.

"Okay, okay. We'll be back soon." Jason walked out.

"Yeah." Anya put her head in her hands as she grabbed her phone, texting Sam.

'Hey, how's everything at the Tower?'

It took a few minutes but eventually she got a reply.

'Dick left.'

Anya blinked before she pressed the call button.

Sam almost immediately answered,"Anya?"

"Sam, what's happened?"

"I-I don't know, he just packed up and left." Sam sighed,"Gar and I were watching a movie but he's fallen asleep."

Anya sighed,"Oh, I'm sorry."

"It's fine, I should be used to him leaving me."

"I feel terrible, maybe I should come back." Anya shook her head.

"No, stay." Sam spoke quickly,"I'll be fine."

"Theres not that much here for me anyway."

"You could watch Jason for me... When he's not acting like a dog in heat." Sam told her.

"Tell me about it." Anya groaned,"It's all the time."

"Oh, I could. Do I want to though?

Anya hummed,"I miss you, kitty."

"I miss you too, darling." Sam sighed,"But we'll be together soon."

"How are you? Really?" She sighed.

"Stressed." Sam shook his head,"I was really upset but Gar was here."

"If you ever need me, I'm only a button away." Anya assured him.

"I know." He blew a kiss down the phone.

Anya smiled,"I'll text you soon."

"So will I. Love you."

"Love you too kitty.' Anya hummed and hung up.
