I do not own glee or the characters.
Intro: Mercedes is in the studio thinking about what she had just saw before entering the studio and called her "boyfriend" to see what was going on
"REALLY MATT! I can't believe you would do something like that to me" whipping the tears that has fallen from her red swollen eyes. "I put everything before you even when it down to my studio time to work on my album that should have came out months ago I spent it with you"
"Look Mercedes I'm sorry I was going to tell you I didn't mean for you to find out like this I really di…."
Cutting Matt off " What do you mean you didn't want me to find out like that you took this chick to a restaurant that I have been begging you to take me for months and on top of that you kiss her and tell her that you loved her and that you were leaving me". Still shocked that she had been cheated on for the second time with Matt. At this point she was done. She couldn't take the heartache and pain anymore. She wanted to go and never come back because he obviously wasn't interested. "This is the second time you have done this to me, you said you were going to change but reality is that you aren't you're going to be the same careless person you always were but sadly I didn't see"
"Mercy…please don't do this I promise I won't do this again I don't want to hurt you anymore. Just….just please don't leave me mercy please I'll change I will tell her to go take a hike because I'm in love with you Mercedes jones and i…"
"No matt just no, I'm seriously fed up and you're not going to change and no you don't love me you just love the idea of me and I believe you never loved me even from the start." Those words passed her lips like poison. Whipping the tear filled face she took a deep breath and said "it's over matt I can't deal with the Sam bullshit over and over again and deal with the same pain over and over again with you. I deserve better and you deserve whatever you have coming to you" Never in a thousand years had she thought she would say those words to the man she loved for 5 years, the one, the only one.
"Baby…please…don't mercy please MERCEDES I don't….." A click is all he heard.
She had ended that phone call throwing her phone on the couch in the studio. She sat there alone crying and still in disbelief that her boyfriend of 5 years cheated on her for the second time and she didn't know until she saw it for herself. She took a taxi back to her apartment and cried the whole way home. She entered the elevator to get to the floor she lived on still whipping tears from her eyes. A tall handsome man jumped in before the doors closed.
"Hold it" as he jumped into the elevator. He pressed his floor number, 4, and stood there and hearing Mercedes sniff and seeing her whip her tears away. He turned around and put his hand on her shoulder "umm excuse me miss….um are you okay"
Trying to pull herself together she whipped the rest of her tears and looks at the green eyed color man "I'm sorry, yes I'm fine I'm okay thank you for asking" she lied and shown a fake smirk.
"well I know when someone is feeling down or upset and recently crying and I honestly hate when people are upset and try to hid the pain instead of talking it out "looking into her big brown eyes he whipped a tear off of her face "my name is Sam, Sam Evans and I live on the fourth floor apartment 23 and I'm a model here in Cali and my friends call me white chocolate and you?"
Confused on what was going on and what was happening she giggled and said "excuse me what?
"I'm introducing myself so we aren't strangers as much anymore and to make you a little more comfortable talking to me and also to put a smile on that pretty face" he smiled looking at Mercedes eyes and also her body.
She looks down and giggled "Mercedes Jones I live on the fourth floor apartment 19 and I am a R&B singer here in Cali my studio is on Ellen street and my friends call me mercy" almost forgetting that she just broke up with her long term boyfriend she quickly became serious "why do you want to talk to me anyways why didn't you just leave me be" checking out Sam's hair and body.
He chuckles "I honestly don't know I had a feeling that talking to you would be something special and making you feel better was like my mission as if I know you before and had to care for you I don't know" the elevator bell rings for the fourth floor." Here I'll walk you to your apartment"
Stunned at his response "thank you and you don't have to do that" looking at him with a smile.
"No no no its my pleasure I would rather walk a beautiful woman to her apartment and make sure that she is okay than go to my apartment and wonder…. So yea". Suddenly he began to feel butterflies in his stomach.
"Well then let's go" As they walked to her apartment they had small talk on what had happened between her and her ex-boyfriend and he just listened and watched her walk gracefully through that hall." Well this is it. Thank you so much for making me feel better even though you didn't have to" looking into his perfect green eyes and butterflies flew freely in her stomach.
"It was no problem and you are a very unique person and I don't understand how someone could do such a horrible thing to such a perfect person. I know that I could never to that to such an amazing and beautiful person such as yourself." He watched her giggle at his comment and thought to himself I have to see her again some way somehow. "Hey… Mercedes I was wondering if you like to go out for some coffee or dinner whichever is more comfortable to you is fine by me"
Digging through her purse trying to find her keys then dropping them when she found them. He picked them up and stared right into her big brown eyes. "Thank you and dinner sounds perfect" she said with no hesitation. She couldn't believe that a model, for one, has asked her out.
"Then it's a date then"
"It's a date" she said with a smile.
"Well that is just perfect Saturday at 7 I will come here to pick you up. I'm so excited to see what other interesting things you have to talk about"
"we will see Sam Evans, see you Saturday" she enters her apartment and has one last glace at Sam before closing her door leaning on the door wondering what did I just get myself into.
