Complicated {s.c x reader}

"I'm truly sorry, Sam. What I've done to you...stringing you along and having a video get leaked...I can't believe how much damage I've done. Please, forgive me." My chin trembles as my voice begins to break at the last three words. Sam stands there as still as a rock. The only thing moving are his darting eyes, and I thought for a second he wasn't breathing.

It felt like minutes passed as we stood in front of each other. I was about say something else. Open my mouth to plead for forgiveness again, or say goodbye forever, but before I could, he just wrapped his arms around my waist, and held me tight. 

I struggle to embrace him back, wondering if I was setting myself up for disaster again.

But then I realize:

This is what it's all been for.

To have Sam in my arms.

To look into his eyes and say:

"I love you, Y/N Y/L/N." Sam looks all around my face with a teary-eyed smile. My eyes widen with shock, and I could feel my body give way under his touch.

This is what it's all been for.

Everything.

"I love you too, Sam Claflin." I exhale a chuckle, my whole body numb from excitement. We shared the widest grins a human could form, and it didn't take long for Sam to hold my face in his warm hand. His dimples make my heart flutter, and I feel electricity buzzing between us.

He trails my cheek with his thumb, our eyes staring deep into each others. 

I can feel the world finally align. 

Everything makes sense now. Now that I have him.

His face dips down to meet mine, and Sam places his lips gently on mine. 

As if the world has burst into a golden light, our lips dance together and our hearts beat as one.

Inhaling his intoxicating cologne, the feeling of his soft lips rolling onto mine, his hands trailing up and down my body, I finally feel like I'm where I'm meant to be.

Love is complicated, but I've found it. 

When we pull apart, I don't think I've ever felt as happy as I have in that moment. Sam takes me in his arms and laughs heartily as he lifts me up off the ground. I can't help but giggle as he twirls me around. We're on top of the world.

"I...I'm so incredibly grateful for you, Sam. You've done nothing but forgive. Thank you so much." His arms still hold me as I took into his crystal blue eyes. 

"You've saved me, Y/N. Countless times. Of course I'd forgive you, It's the least I could do." He says in a hushed tone, sending chills to ripple through my body. He plants a gentle kiss on my lips, not filled with lust nor desire, but with relief...and love. Like we've been waiting years for it, and it's finally come.

"We still have so much to sort through, but I know this is what it's all been for, Sam. I know that we're going to fight through so much chaos, drama, and gossip...but I know I'd do anything just to have you in my life." My whole body finally feels at peace. I'm complete, now.

"We've already been through so much together. There's nothing that we can't handle, Y/N. If it's meant to be, it'll be, and I know we're meant to be. You're everything to me, Y/N. You told me yesterday you wish things were different. Well at this moment, right now, I'm glad everything has happened between us. Because if it hadn't, you wouldn't be standing in front of me right now with dripping-wet hair telling me you love me." Sam chuckles at the end, making another huge grin play on my lips. I give him a tight hug, feeling his heart beat loudly through his chest.
