Desclaimer: I don't own Glee or any of their characters.
Mercedes walked down the busy streets of New York after another long day at the Studio. She got lost in her thoughts about her up coming album and all the songs she has to write before the month was over. She was so lost in thought that she bumped right into someone. The person caught her before she fell and when she looked up she locked eyes with the most beautiful pair of emerald green eyes she had ever seen. "I'm so sorry." they both began to say at the same time before they stopped both began to chuckle a little.
"I really am sorry for bumping into you like that I was thinking so hard I wasn't paying attention." Mercedes said to Mr. green eyes. With a slight blush on her cheeks. She gave the man a once over he was gorgeous. He was tall and had short dirty blonde hair, she could tell that he had a body that any man would kill for by it being pressed up against her so close, but what drew her in the most were his eyes. It was like he was looking into her soul.
"It's ok. I wasn't watching where I was going either." He replied. They stood there for a few minutes just staring at each other. Until Mercedes realized he was still holding her. She smiled at him and said "I think I can stand on my own now." He smiled back at her with a blush and said "Sorry I guess I just got lost in your beauty." She giggled as he helped her stand up right. With a rosy tint to his cheeks he said "I guess I'll see you around Ms. Pretty." With that he began to make his way down the street leaving Mercedes standing there shell shocked and blushing.
As Mercedes began walking back towards her apartment mind still on the green eyed stranger she heard a noise that came from an alley. At first she was going to ignore it and keep walking until she heard the sound of a child's cough. As she walked into the alley she began to look for the sound. She came to a stop in front of two small children who didn't look more then three or four years old.
Mercedes watched as the little boy pulled the smaller girl just a little bit closer to him. She lowered herself slowly to the ground in front of them and gave them what she hopped was a warm smile. "Hi what are your names?" she asked. The boy looked to the little girl who eyed Mercedes curiously, until she looked over to the boy and nodded her head slightly. "Noah and this is my sister Rachel." he replied
"Those are very nice names. What are you guys doing out here in the cold by yourselves?" Mercedes asked watching them closely. Noah looked to Rachel again as to see if it was ok to answer. It was like they were having a silent conversation until Rachel looked back at Mercedes and said "Shelby brought us and said to wait right here and don't move. She said that the lady that finds us is our mama. Is that you? Are you our mama?" Mercedes was stunned into silence for a minute wondering how long these babies had been out there in the freezing cold and who would do this to them. Then it dawned on her the question Rachel had asked her.
"Honey whose Shelby?" Rachel looked down so Noah answered "She's the mean lady who gave birth to us.". Mercedes was about to comment when Rachel looked back up and began to speak "Mama we waited for you for so long. What took you so long?" after she was done talking she broke down crying and flung herself into Mercedes. Mercedes held the little girl to her chest with tears in her eyes. She looked over to Noah and noticed silent tears streaming down his face too. She held out her hand to him while saying "It's ok. Mama's here now and I'm not going anywhere". Noah nearly flew into her arms. She stood up with both kids snuggling into her neck and as she was about to walk away she noticed an envelope on the ground where the kids were sat. With the kids still in her arms she bent down and picked it up. Deciding to open it when she got back to her apartment she turned around and began to walk out of the alley and back towards the apartment she shared with her two best friends.
When Mercedes got to her apartment she realized that the children had fallen asleep. As she walked up the stairs she was debating how she was going to open the door, when she heard the soft sounds of music coming from inside. She began to repeatedly ring the door bell with her elbow. "Weezy please don't tell me you forgot your key aga..." Mercedes heard her roommate and best friend Santana began to say as she opened the door. "What's going on and who are those kids Cedes?" Santana asked as Mercedes walked past her and into the apartment. Before she could answer her other best friend and roommate Brittany came bouncing down the stairs to join the conversation but she stopped in her tracks at the sight of the children.
"What's going on here? Who's kids are those?" Brittany asked as Mercedes bypassed her as well heading up stairs. Not one to be ignored Santana was hot on Mercedes heels following her into the guest room. Mercedes placed the big envelope on the night stand before she nodded to Santana silently asked her to pull the covers back. Once that was finished she placed Rachel down first before walking around to the other side of the bed and placing Noah next to her. She looked up at a still stunned Santana with a pleading look that said 'I'll explain later please help me now'. When the covers were pulled up around the kids they stood there for a few more minutes watching the kids sleep. Even while sleeping Noah was protective of Rachel as he put an arm over her.
On their way out of the room Mercedes grabbed the envelope and motioned for Santana to follow her back down stairs. On the way they found Brittany still standing in the same spot looking confused with a lot of questions in her eyes, but before she could voice any of them Mercedes held up her hand and waved her forward to follow them. When they reached the kitchen Mercedes sat down in a chair and put her head in her hands and took a deep breath. Santana and Brittany watched her closely from their chairs. After a few more minutes passed in silence Mercedes looked up from her hands and began to tell her best friends everything that happened on her way home.
When she was finished Brittany had tears in her eyes and Santana was beyond pissed and went into full lawyer mode. "Okay first we have to make a police report can you call Jake Mercedes?" When she received a nod she went on to say "Good because we have to see if we can find anything out on this Shelby person. She better hope we never find her because I will ring her neck with my bare hands for leaving those kids out in the cold for god know how long." When she was finished with her rant Brittany said "You'll have to get in line behind me." Both Santana and Mercedes looked at her with shocked expressions because Brittany is not a violent person. "What? Don't look so shocked what she did was unimaginable."
When Mercedes finally recovered from the shock she remembered the envelope seating infront of her. She looked at it for a few minutes before picking it up and opening it. Santana and Brittany watched as she pulled out several papers but before they could ask her what it was she began to read out loud.
"To whom ever finds these little brats,
You can have them because I don't want them. Inside this envelop are there birth certificates and legal papers all you have to do is sign it and they become your problem. Don't bother looking for me I'll be long gone by the time you even come looking."
When Mercedes finished reading the letter they where all seething. Mercedes put the letter aside and looked through the documents before handing them to Santana to look over. While she did that Mercedes turned to Brittany "Could you go to the store and pick the kids up some things please?". Brittany gave her a small smile and said "Of course Cedes do you want me to get anything specific?" When Mercedes said no Brittany turned to leave until she felt a hand grab her arm. When she turned Mercedes was standing behind her with a credit card in her hand. As Brittany took it she pulled Mercedes into a hug and told her everything was going to be okay. Mercedes melted into the hug for a minute taking in all the comfort she could before releasing her so she could leave. After Brit left Mercedes grabbed her cell phone and called her brother Jacob Puckerman.
After Mercedes dead beat dad left her mother two months pregnant and alone her best friend came to the rescue and helped her get through it. Joyce Jones and Chris Puckerman feel in love a few months later. On February 15,1990 Mercedes Amber Jones was born. Two months after Mercedes was born Joyce and Chris found out they were pregnant with their second child. On November 2, 1990 Jacob Christopher Puckerman was born. Even though he had to stay in the hospital for a few weeks in an incubator he got stronger and became a good edition to the family. Growing up you would have thought Mercy and Jake were twins because they were inseparable. They always had each others backs and never let anything change that. All they had to do was call and the other would drop everything they were doing to be there.
"Hey Mercy Me what do I owe the honor of a call right now?" Jake asked when he answered the phone. "Jake I need you.". When Jake heard the emotions in Mercedes voice he jumped up from his chair in the precinct and began to gather his things. "I'll be right there don't worry." Jake replied before hanging up the phone. As he was walking out he stopped in his captains office and told him he had a family emergency before running out of the door to his car.
When Jake had hung up Mercedes looked back at Santana who was just hanging up her phone. "I just talked to Tina she will be here soon." Santana told Mercedes. Her eyes grew wide and it looked like she stopped breathing. When Santana saw the look on her face she walk up to her and said "Relax Cedes breathe. I had to call her. I explained everything to her she's coming to look over the paper work and ask you some questions." Mercedes' insides were still flipping. She loved Tina like a sister but she could take the kids and Mercedes could not let that happen. Before anything else could be said they heard a repeated knock on the door.
Mercedes ran to the door hopping that the knocking didn't wake up the kids. When she opened the door and saw Jake standing there with a concerned look on his face. She flung herself into him and let her silent tears fall. Jake held her close more worried now then before. He nodded to Santana who was standing in the door watching the scene. As they were pulling away from each other Tina was walking up the stairs behind them.
They all greeted Tina while walking back into the house. Mercedes was wiping her tears away when Jake broke the silence in the room "Can you please tell me what's going on Mercy Me?" As she was about to reply he interrupted her and said "Did something bad happen to you?" before she could answer he said "If someone hurt you I'll kill them." By this time he had begun pacing back and forth all of the women saw the murderous look on his face at the thought of someone hurting his sister. Mercedes found her voice and said "No Jake nothing happened to me." He stopped pacing and said "Then what's wrong sis? Is it mom or dad? Oh god is something wrong with Matt?"
Matthew Jesse Puckerman was born on August 2, 1997. From birth Matt has had it hard. He was born with a Ventricular Septal Defect, a hole in his heart. When he was three they discovered that he had Asthma when had trouble breathing at daycare. The year he turned ten they discovered that he had kidney failure. After being on dialysis for a few months it was decided that he would need a kidney transplant. Everyone in the family was tested but only Mercedes was a match. So on October 31st, 2007 Mercy gave Matt one of her kidneys and they became just a little bit closer if that was even possible. After the transplant they all hopped and preyed that the worst was over and for a while it was. Up until last year when Matt was diagnosed with type 1 Diabetes. Even through all of the heartache Matt always has a smile on his face and love in his heart.
Mercedes grabbed Jake by the face and looked him in the eyes and said "Calm down mama, daddy, and Matt are fine." Jake took a minute to process what she said. Confused he said "Then please tell me what's wrong Merc. You have my blood pressure through the roof right now." Just as Mercedes was about to tell Jake everything Brittany came walking through the door with both arms full of bags, and they heard a cry ring out from upstairs.
