A/N: After watching "A Wedding" , I decided to write a one shot of Samchel. I heard "This is Us" by Backstreet Boys I thought this fit Rachel and Sam. This story is mostly in Sam's POV. Happy reading.
Disclaimer: I do not own Glee, characters or song lyrics.
Sam Evans and Rachel Berry stood at the altar watching the Two couples getting married. Their best friends Santana & Brittany (Brittana) and by surprise Kurt & Blaine (Klaine). During the ceremony, Kurt's father, Burt, was officiating and he mentioned about how he was lucky enough to find love twice and married those loves.
Sam couldn't help but stare at Rachel. His feelings for her came as a surprise but bperhaps they were buried since high school. He remembers when she asked him to prom, and he lied about her not being his type. Plus she was always "Finn's girl". He was a little hurt that she kept hiding from him today because of Finn's parents. She didn't want to hurt them, and neither did he. But, he didn't want to feel guilty about loving her. He needed her to see that.
Rachel listened to her friends exchange vows, and couldn't help but think that it could've been her and Finn. It was not meant to be, but she didn't love any less. Then she glanced at her new love, Sam Evans. In such a short period of time he had become Rachel's rock. He was her love now, but felt guilt for falling in love again. Maybe Sam wasn't her first love, but a more mature love.
After the ceremony, it was time to dance and celebrate. Rachel tried to avoid Sam and she knew she was unfair. Especially to Sam. The bouquet had been thrown, and Rachel caught it, just as the garter had been caught by Sam.
Sam grabbed a guitar, and he looked at Rachel.
Sam: This song is for someone special in my life. One day our time will come. I hope one day its her and I standing before you getting married. This is us, I love you Rachel Berry.
Rachel felt tears forming as she snuck a glance at Carol and Burt who walked over to hug her and whispered, " its okay to be with Sam. Love again."
This Is Us (A/N: by Backstreet Boys)
Got a million reasons to run and hide
I don't blame you for being scared (for being scared, no)
Bout a novel long, all the pain that he's caused you
Baby I'm fully aware (I'm fully aware)
If I could change the story's ending to me and you
Don't know the meaning of pretending of what to do
[CHORUS:]
I could be the one
Give you all my love
Forget what he has done to you
I'm here now
Open up to me
Love will set you free
If ever you believe it
Please believe in me
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
This is love, this is love
Let the world know, baby (This is us)
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
This is love, this is love
Let the world know, baby (This is us)
I know everything isn't meant to last
Box up all those photographs
You're moving on (yeah)
I could flip back over that hour glass
And refill the better half (the better half)
And it's a miracle how broken hearts can mend
Won't you dry up all those tear drops and start again
[CHORUS]
If I could show you there's no risk of being left alone
Would you let your past go
I'll take it slow
Cause there's no need to rush when I know
[CHORUS]
Sam: This is Us, Each. You are my future.
Rachel: Someday...I love you too, Sam Evans.
Sam and Rachel kissed. Rachel knew she was lucky to find love again. She would never forget her first love, but knew her heart was big enough to love Sam as well. Samchel FTW.
A/N: Hope you liked it.
