Oh, Oh maybe, we were made
We were made for each other
Ahh, is it possible for the
World to look this way forever?
Ahhh, Ahhh...
Sam has been teaching Mercedes how to play his guitar lately. She always complimented on how lovely the sounds he made were, he thought he could teach her. For the last week they've been sitting on her deck strumming his guitar. At first she was horrible at it but she didn't quit, and that made him noticed how determine she was. Weeks went by before she really got the hang of it and she was so proud of herself, so was I. Mercedes was so happy she could play guitar she said she'd teach me something I didn't know how to do, and she told me dancing.
I didn't know I was that bad of a dancer? I know at prom I had this whole grind my hips in every direction kinda thing going on. She told me I needed to find more rhythm, and she was the perfect one to teach me. So everyday this summer I was at the Jones, learning how to dance. I felt bad I couldn't take Mercedes places with my families' crisis, but she understood. She thought just being with me was good enough, she made me smile. I was still hesitant around people ever since everyone found out; Mercedes was the only one who didn't treat me different. She didn't baby me every five minutes, or even try to make me feel lower then I already felt. She helped me babysit Stacy and Stevie a lot; they loved her as well as my parents.
They thought so highly of her, as if she was an angel and she was. Many people didn't take her seriously at school and I couldn't figure it out. She never had a boyfriend and she had a few friends, how can an amazing person like her not be seen. Reputation; if you didn't do anything scandalous or wasn't on a sport team you were nobody. That's the thing about high school, you're so determine to please everyone yet no one really respect you. I've been with two cheerio's cheerleaders and they didn't even live up to the reputation hype this school ran with.
Today I was going to have some fun with Mercedes, I told her to wear her bathing suit and bring some cash. At first she was really hesitant until I told her she would have a blast. I went looking through the whole motel room for my swim trunks, finally finding them I went into the bathroom to put them on. I grabbed mischievous things related to the beach and grabbed my guitar. I loaded up my car and drove over to Mercedes listening to some Jack Johnson. I pulled up in her driveway and went inside her house to check if she was ready, where Mrs. Jones greeted me.
Ah, Mrs. Jones was really a saint; I knew where Mercedes got it from. This woman was the best I've known besides my mother. After she heard from local gossipers about my living situation she set anyone who bad mouthed us straight. She also invited us over for Sunday dinner every week. Her and my mother became fast friends; she's even helping my parents find jobs and apartments so we could move out. Mrs. Jones just adored us, me especially, I don't know why though. Every time she saw Mercedes and me together; her whole face lights up.
"So where are you kids off today?" Mrs. Jones asked as she offered me a Popsicle, I politely turned down." The beach and the boardwalk, I wanted to do something fun with Mercedes today" I replied back "Awe, you kids have fun now. Have her home by one Samuel." Mrs. Jones said as she left the kitchen
Walking upstairs to Mercedes room I knocked once I noticed the door was closed. She told me to enter and I saw a bunch of clothes laid out everywhere in her room, but couldn't seem to find her. I decided to sit on her bed until she made an appearance and boy she did. She walked out of her bathroom with this two piece tankini. Her top was this fiery red color and her bottoms were black, and did she look amazing. Her suit suited her curves he didn't take notice of before, or her voluptuous cleavage she had. I couldn't stop staring at her, god did she look hot.
"Um, I thought you were my mom but you can do too. Does this bathing suit make me look huge or fat?" She asked shyly as she turned in every angle to give me a better look at her body. "First off you look amazing and secondly you're not fat so don't say that, your curvaceous." I replied back my eyes skimming over her body a second time. I felt the tighten of my pants and excused myself to her bathroom. How the hell did I get a boner from Mercedes of all people? You're not supposed to get boners from looking at your friends but she looked so damn good in that bathing suit. "Are you alright Sam?" She asked me as I tried to calm my little problem down."I'm good, I'll be out in a few" I said hoping she wouldn't push for more information. "We'll when you're done I'll be downstairs so just come down and yeah..." She said as I heard her bedroom door close.
Embarrassed Sam tried to calm himself down. How the hell am I supposed to act around her today? I know my eyes will stare holes into her body especially her chest, those were the nicest set of boobs I have ever seen. Stop, what the hell you are thinking Sam. Mercedes is a friend and you don't want to ruin that with your horniest. Within a few minutes Sam was back to regular, he went downstairs to join Mercedes who was humming a tune.
"Sorry about that had a little emergency, are you ready to leave" I asked as I sat next to her on her kitchen island. "Yupp I'm looking forward to getting some color and looking at all those hot guys" Mercedes joked back. Sam on the other hand didn't find it funny. Why does she want to look at other guys when she's with me? Whoa, she isn't with me so I shouldn't have a problem. So why is that voice in the back of my mind telling me she is?
We jumped into my car and drove downtown to the beach. I recently opened Mercedes into adult alternative music, which she now loves. There will be days I caught her singing some Jason Mraz or even a little Michael Buble. She said she never knew this white music had soul in it, I told her she shouldn't judge artist by their color. Sometimes we came to agree to disagree, but at the end of it we always apologize to each other. So that's why I'm so surprised right now, Mercedes burnt a whole cd of her newly favorite bands/artist and she said I inspired it. She skipped to track 5 and told me this song reminded her of our relationship. I've heard the song once and it was an amazing song, and she was right it was us rolled into a song. It felt like this was meant to be platonic but then again it felt as if it branched out into intimate.
We arrived at the beach and it was absolutely beautiful. We gathered all the things from my car and went looking for a perfect place to lay out. We walked away from the crowd of beach goers and found a secluded area. I sat both of the beach chairs out while Mercedes laid out both of the blankets. I notice we were missing something to block the sun from us so I ran over and got an umbrella. When I got back Cede's had the food all laid out the guitar sitting on one of the chairs, and I noticed she took off her cover up. I had to keep myself from staring at her, it's just hard when she just wearing that.
I looked around the beach and saw almost everyone from Lima here; he could see Finn & Puck playing football a few yards away from them. He also saw Quinn and Rachel playing in the water with each other. He lets his feet play with the sand as he looked out into the ocean and how beautiful it looked; it sparkled as if it was kissed by the sun. He loved the breeze he felt and the scent of the ocean in his nose made him feel like home. Then he saw the birds flying around or walking along the shore making noise over seaweed scraps. His eyes finally landed back at Mercedes who had her book covering her face.
"Let go in the ocean" I asked her when I stood up and pulled my shirt off, I saw the way her eyes roamed over my chest and the way she licked her lips. She was so checking me out, like I did her all day. "I don't know Sam, my hair" She replied back I saw her staring out to the ocean and seen her eyes zero on Quinn and Rachel."Please Cede I promise you won't get your hair wet, scouts honor" I said as I made a pretend sign up. She laughed and said sure. I grabbed her hand and we walked into the water
Mercedes then backed away once she noticed how cold the water was, Saying she changed her mind she began to walk back to their area until he lifted her up bridal style and ran them into the water. Causing her to shriek and lightly punch his chest and shoulders. Once he got them to a decent enough sea level he put her down making sure not to get her hair wet.
"Sam why did you do that!" She yelled once she splashed him with some water. "Cus you were making up excuses, now you're in are you cold?" I asked back as I began to swim around her. "No I'm not but still I could have made you hurt yourself picking me up like that. I'm not as skinny as those two over there" She whispered, now he knew the real reason. "Cede's you didn't hurt me and plus that was fun. And another thing you need to stop talking yourself down. Yes you're not like them but there are a million girls who aren't either. You're beautiful the way you are, and personally I like your body type more than those twigs." I said as I seen her face light up. "Thank you Sam, I just can't help but wonder why you are always with me. I'm nothing like them but you keep showing at my deck, like I brighten up your day or something, I don't know. I guess I'm just being silly." She said as she began to swim back to the shore.
Girls and their emotions confuse the hell out of me, but in that moment she didn't. It hurt to think of all the times she put herself down cus she didn't feel like the other girls. She was beautiful in her own light that held no competition for the other girls. I think I'm just thinking too much into this. I swam back after her and seen she started to dry her body, that lovely tempting body of hers. Why do I keep thinking about her like this? Then it was taken all away as she pulled out her shorts and an oversized t-shirt from her bag, all her glorious and arousing body parts were now hidden. I sat with my back in the other direction so she could dress herself.
"Come on you ready for a little jam session?" I asked as I brought out my guitar, she nodded back in response. My fingers began to strum a song I heard earlier this week with Mercedes; her eyes lit up as she heard the first chords of the song and began to sing the first verse.
Oh no, this couldn't be more unexpected. And I can tell that I've been moving in so slow. Don't let it throw you off too far. Cause I'll be running right behind you
Her voice was amazing; it was so low and sultry that it sent tingles down my spine. I got lost in her eyes, they never looked so beautiful then they did now with the sunlight sparkled in them. Her wet hair curled and now blew with the breeze.
Could this be out of line? To say you're the only one breaking me down like this. You're the only one I would take a shot on. Keep me hanging on so contagiously
I guess there was always a reason I hung out daily with Mercedes. Or how I was the only one who got to call her at any time of the night and she wouldn't bug out on me; Kurt wasn't even aloud that. Or how whenever she smiled I smiled; since it make her it made me happy. I didn't notice the changes within me when I was around her. I have a feeling she felt the same way or else she wouldn't have said the things she just did recently. I already noticed today I was sexually aroused by her but did that mean I liked her too? It had to for the rest of the song my eyes never left hers and the world melted away. Know I knew why her mother always had this face whenever we were around her. She knew before either of us probably or she and Mercedes knew and I was the last one in on the fact.
I leaned over and moved all the hair from her face, my right hand placed on her cheek. I noticed how she closed her eyes and moaned, she sounded lovely making that sound. I noticed her breathing came in short breathes like she was anticipating something very important. I closed my eyes and bridged the gap between us. Our lips touched for a few seconds, then I couldn't control it; I felt fireworks I needed more from her, guessing she felt the same she slide over onto my lap as one of my arms wrapped around her waist and she held one of her hands on the side of my face, she kissed me back with so much lust, passion and need. Unfortunately we had to break apart for lack of air; I rested my head on the nape of her neck. As she tried to catch her breath I began to kiss on her neck, once I heard her moan I felt myself go crazy.
"Wow" was as she said once I finished kissing on her neck. "I kinda went a little crazy on you there" I laughed as I moved my index finger around her neck tracing the now visible hicky mark she had.
We stayed like that for about a few hours wrapped in each other. I didn't want to let her go; it just felt right having her in my arms. She didn't protest, she said it made her very important to him being this close. He gently kissed her head and they both gazed out at the ocean, the sunlight had faded. He knew today was one of the best days of his life. Here he was cuddling on the beach with Mercedes, his perfect girl.
"Thanks for today Sam, it really meant a lot to me" she said as she continued to look at the ocean my eyes were now on her, looking at all the beauty she professed. "It meant a lot to me as well, come on I have one more thing for us to do tonight." I said before I gave her another kiss. We packed up everything and took them to my car. Once we got there I tried to convince her to take off her over-sized shirt. I knew she wore it to make her not feel like the biggest person at the beach. After some heavy duty kissing persuasion; she finally gave in and took it off but then she said she didn't have another shirt and she wasn't just going to just wear her bathing suit top. I scrounged around the backseat of the car until I found one of my button ups. I tossed it at her and she gave me this wtf do I look like wearing this kind of faces. Then I told her just to put it on and surprisingly it went well with her red bathing suit top.
We went walking down the boardwalk and my hand was empty. I wonder how she would fell if I held hers. We already kissed more than a few times, holding hands shouldn't be this hard. I just have to be non-obvious about it. Just grab her hand already Evans. When I was having a mental fight with myself, I felt Mercedes grab my hand, and she looked at me as if she was unsure if I wanted to hold her hand. I squeezed it and smiled at her and she smiled back.
We finally arrived the place I wanted to take her ever since last night, The Pier. I couldn't wait to win her teddy bears and the whole chabang. I couldn't wait to get her on half the rides here and most of all; I couldn't wait to see her face at the end of the night.
"Omg this is the best idea Sam!" she happily said as they walked by all the gaming booths.
We hit up our favorite booths and no surprise to me I won every game. I won a big teddy bear and a tablet. I gave Mercedes the bear and kept the tablet. I could sell it for a profit and give the cash to my parents, these things sold for a few hundred. Mercedes won a goldfish that we named Lucky. Next we went on the tilt-a-whirl; she had a fun time on that. Next we did bumper cars and she made it her mission to always bump into me. Then we went on some other ride then decided to take a break, we walked to Wislow's Bar & Grill. We ordered some hot wings and a bucket of fries that were delicious, it was near ten and I still had time before I got Mercedes home. I texted my parents to see if they were alright with watching Stacy and Stevie and they texted back have fun, talked to Mrs. Jones. Looking back at Mercedes I saw she was looking at the stars.
"The night-time is so pretty, the stars twinkle so bright up there" She said to me, I was looking at her when I replied back, "you're prettier than any star I ever saw" She blushed at my corniness but thanked me. "Come on we got one more ride before we leave, the Ferris wheel!"I added as I took our trash and threw it away. I wrapped my arm around her shoulder and we began to walk back to the pier.
The line waiting for the wheel was about 10 minutes tops, we got settles into a blue box. My arm still draped around her shoulder but her head rested on my shoulders. I didn't think today would end up being this great. Every time I'm with her it's nothing short of it so why did I expect less. Looking down at all the people I felt invisible. I felt Mercedes looking at me, so I turned my face around to see hers and she caught me by surprise when I was met with her lips.
"Thank you for today, it was really like a dream come true" She told me after we kissed a little more.
"I always want to make your dreams come true" I whispered back as our lips met once again
And maybe, we were made
We were made for each other
Ahh, is it possible for the
World to look this way forever?
Ahhh, Ahhh...
