Today was a very special day for Mercedes. She was turning 27, and she was planning her party with her best friends; Santana and Quinn. A party at the club for her friends and work pals; she couldn't wait to celebrate with them.
Mercedes had always been a conservative person and always had a lot of willpower these qualities earned her the position to be one of the best lawyers in New York. She was young, but was able to create a distinct line between having fun and being serious.
Mercedes opened her eyes and Santana was trying to wake her up, as usual.
"Santana stop hitting this pillow on my face, shit!" Mercedes yelled putting her head under the blanket.
"You need to wake up, we have to pick up Quinn, she called me like 10 times and you know, when that girl wants to be annoying she is" remarked Santana.
Mercedes sat on her bed listening to Santana talk, she was right Quinn could be so annoying that they sometimes wanted to tie her up and throw her in the sea. But Mercedes would never do that to Quinn, even Satan, ops Santana!
"Santana shut up, I'm up! There is no need for you to yell. Why didn't you go get Quinn without me? For god's sake it's 9am and it's my birthday, can't a girl sleep in alittle".
Mercedes walked to the bathroom and closed the door.
Santana stayed till midnight with her so she was the first one to wish her happy birthday.
"You know how Quinn is! And I don't care if it's 9am. God, I need a drink, go fast" Santana got out of the room and called Quinn.
"You're crazy!" Mercedes yelled.
Sam woke up and the day was already bullshit; he had to get ready as fast as possible and go to the office on a Saturday. He had to sign hundreds of papers he had not signed during the week because of a business trip he took to Europe. So, in result of making those choices he was locked in his office on a Saturday. But to him anything was better than staying home listening to his wife complain.
Sam was at the kitchen getting ready to go out when Rachel came in
"Hey, are you going into work today?"
"Well, if I'm in my work attire, that's obviously what I'm doing" Sam was about to close the door when he heard Rachel talking to him again.
"You know, you don't need to be rude with me. We're married Sam, wether you like it or not" snapped Rachel.
"Just because I'm married to you doesn't mean I love you, and you and I know more than anyone that this marriage is fake and will never work. So stop trying to be my 'wife' and let me go to my work, I'm late" Sam slammed the door and left.
Two years, yes, two years of an unwanted marriage, he never wanted to agree to it, but his parents practically forced him to marry Rachel. With financial questions being asked in the family business; Rachel's dad was one of the biggest business man in NY, as well as Sam's father. When Sam and Rachel first met at a business cocktail both parents practically forced them to get closer and go out with each other. Sam's parents thought it was good, because Rachel's father could help in financial matters of his family's company, and Sam could become a well known businessman. So, here he was, in a very bad and unhappy marriage. He was starting to believe their parents didn't care about their happiness? Sam questioned it everyday, was the 'business' and 'money' more important than his happiness ? Sam was tired of having to wake up and always look at the face of a woman he did not love. Not to mention that he and Rachel fought almost every day. All that Sam wanted to do was sign the damn papers and distract himself from the problems.
PARTY TIME
Later that night at the party Santana and Quinn were drinking at the bar while Mercedes was welcoming her guests.
Quinn and Santana were talking about sex when a man got closer to them.
"Hey, did you guys see merce-"
"Oh my god! Gabe, what are you doing here?"
When Gabe saw Mercedes it was as if the past was passing thru his eyes, Mercedes was more beautiful than ever in a black dress, her hair in loose curls and that smile ... That same smile that made him fall in love with her when they were kids ...
"Mercedes, you are more beautiful than ever." Gabe and Mercedes embraced for a few seconds before hearing Quinn talking
"Ok, who are you?" Quinn said staring at him.
Santana turned to Quinn and rolled her eyes,"He is a childhood friend and Mercedes ex" said Santana.
"Ok, enough of exposing my life!"
Santana and Quinn left and were dancing on the dance floor.
"Anyway, sorry about that Gabe, how are you?"
"I'm okay. I'm fine, better now that I'm with you, I was nervous to see you".
"Aww, I've missed you too, come on let's have a drink" smiled Mercedes.
"Of Course" grinned Gabe.
Puck was about to get in his car when he saw Sam standing in the parking lot leaning on his BMW caught in his thoughts.
"Hey Sam, is everything okay?" Puck asked worriedly
"It's alright man, I just don't want to go home and have to face that woman" said Sam bringing his hands to his face.
"Your wife?" asked Puck.
"My 'forced' wife, you know how this marriage works Puck" remarked Sam.
Sam and Puck were friends since college, they always got along and were confident of each other. Puck had always been very supportive of Sam and always agreed that Sam's marriage was not right.
"I know brother, but if you want to distraction you can come with me, I'm going to the party of a friend ..."
"Puck, you want me to go to someone else's party?" asked Sam.
"What? It's not a problem" replied Puck.
"She doesn't know me man, and didn't you say it was her birthday? No, no way I'm not crashing someone's birthday party" said Sam.
"Man, Mercedes is not this kind of girl. You are welcome to come and the party is at that club near here you, will be able to drink and get distracted a bit, come on!" said Puck trying to get his best friend to go.
Sam went back and forth with his decision, "Okay ..." Sam got in his car and began to follow Puck to the club.
PARTY TIME
Mercedes, Santana and Quinn were dancing on the dance floor. Quinn saw Puck entering the club her heart almost stopped for a second. He always made her nervous for some reason.
"Oh my god Puck is here, Mercedes why did you invite him?" Quinn said going to the bar to drink a stiff drink, she definitely needed to get drunk tonight, Mercedes followed her.4
"He's my friend Quinn, I know you two have problems that are not resolved but I'm a friends with both of you. I should be able to hangout with you guys at the same time. It's unfair to me if you guys can't do that for me" Mercedes sat at the bar looking at Quinn.
"I know, sorry, you're right. Who is that blonde with him?" asked Quinn.
"Who? What are you talking about- Quinn ... H-he's beautiful, and hot ..." Mercedes was drooling looking for Sam.
"Mercy, I know it's been awhile since you've had sex. A year to be exact, this is your chance ... Oh my god we could all double date if this works out for the best" cheered Quinn.
"Quinn less than two minutes ago you were mad at me for inviting Puck to the party, I really do not understand you two .." said Mercedes rolling her eyes.
"Whatever, if Puck asks for me, say that I did not come, Santana!" Quinn called Santana who was already dancing with a blonde on the dance floor.
As soon as Sam entered the club he took off his wedding ring and put in his pocket, he wanted to have fun tonight . Puck was trying to find Mercedes, he soon saw her at the bar having a drinking.
"Come on Sam Mercedes is over there " Sam followed Puck up to the bar and when he saw her his heart raced, how beautiful she was, those curves ... how ... Sam was completely mesmerized ...
"Dude, I know she's hot, but stop drooling! And your taken remember-" joked Puck.
"Do not even finish that sentence Puck!" said Sam in a stern voice.
When they arrived at the bar, Puck hugged Mercedes from behind and kissed her face
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOT MOMMA!" cheered Puck.
Mercedes felt Puck from behind her and turned to embrace
"Thanks Noah" she said laughing
"You look beautiful, as always. Oh! This one is my friend Sam, Sam this is the birthday girl, Mercedes" said Puck introducing them.
Sam was delighted staring at Mercedes.
"Sam? Hmm ... Are you okay?" Mercedes asked smiling.
"Sorry, it's a pleasure to meet you Mercedes" Sam took her hand and kissed it, grinning like a fool.
"Where is Quinn? I need to talk to her ..." asked Puck looking around the club.
Puck wanted to end the cat and mouse game. They were either going to be together or now at all.
"She's on the dance floor with Santana" replied Mercedes. She could feel Sam's eyes burning holes into he body. His eyes were so intense, she couldn't believe she feel in love with them instantly. Mercedes turned away wanting to focus on something us. Maybe looking at Puck would cool her off. When Mercedes looked at Puck he was already on the dance floor trying to talk to Quinn and Sam was still here looking at her.
"So ... Sam ..." said Sam trying to make conversation.
He liked it when she spoke his name sounded sexy when she said it.
"Happy Birthday" he said laughing.
Mercedes blushed, "Thank You. Well, let's have a drink," she said, trying to cut the tension.
Two hours later Puck was making Quinn scream his name, "FUCK! I hate YOU Puckerman!" Quinn groaned as Puck fucked her from behind in the bathroom club
Elsewhere, Sam and Mercedes had some drinks and then began dancing on the dance floor, or rather putting on a show for the guests.
Sam was dancing behind Mercedes holding her hips and kissing her neck, making her go completely crazy. Mercedes turned and faced Sam, looking him in the eye,"What are you doing to me?" she asked.
Sam held Mercedes's face talking with his lips touching hers, "The same thing you're doing to me, you're driving me crazy ... Let's get out of here ... please ...".
Sam couldn't take it anymore, he had to have Mercedes.
"Let's go to my apartment, wait for me at the entrance. I wanna say a few goodbyes before we go".
"Okay," he said kissing her with complete passion. All that was a sneak peek of what she was gonna get. This was only the beginning for them.
