Authors Note

Okay, so... I got this idea while listening to my WATWYW playlist. (Go figure) and I thought well shit, why not?  When the muse calls, I answer. 

Many of you have read Scarlet Fever and while Sam is in this book as well, this is a much different take on Sams character and I kind of like it lol and I hope you all will like it too. 

So this is just a VERY small sneak peek of the opener of the story to hopefully get people interested.

"Right here." Sam instructed the taxi driver and he pulled up to the curb. The music blaring from the house was shaking the windows on the Taxi.
"Someone should call the police, this is just disrespectful." The taxi driver said.
"It's just a party dude." Sam sighed and got out of the Taxi and went around to the trunk and got her bag.

Sam started walking away from the Taxi.
"Hey!" The taxi driver hollered. "Someone needs to pay me."
Sam smirked and walked back to the Taxi she leaned into the passenger side window.
"Do you know Dr. Richard Scarlet?"
"Yeah. Not many people in Storybrooke don't know who he is. It's terrible what happened to his wife and then that screwball psycho kid of his had a mental breakdown and had to get sent away. No one has really seen her since...why do you ask?"
"Does he have a tab with you?" Sam asked.
"Yeah. He does."
"Then put it on his tab." Sam said and started walking away.
"Who do you think you are?!" The Taxi driver shouted.
"The screwball psycho kid." Sam said and gave the driver the bird and chuckled as she turned around and looked up at her childhood home.
"Home sweet hell." She shrugged.
