Sandy Beaches & Blue Oceans

Chapter One: Hello, I Love You

If you thought New Directions going to NY was dramatic, see what happens when they go to Florida for Spring Break. Brittana, Fabrevans, Finchel, Klaine, and Tike.

It was 4:10 in the morning, only two minutes had passed since Sam Evans looked at the time displayed on his phone. Not even for school was he awake at this time, unless he had uncompleted homework that he had to pull an all-niter to complete. But, there was no school and there was no uncompleted homework. It was for his Spring Break vacation.

From the very moment, Puckerman brought it up his plans to go to Miami, Florida during Spring Break, Sam was immediately interested. Then again, at the time, he was in a relationship with the prettiest girl in school; whom he would have loved to walk through the sandy beach with. But, now that was history.

Speaking of history, it seemed like history when Puck and Finn said that they would go and pick up the cars. Either Puck won a lottery or something, but he decided they would all drive to Florida. Even Sam knew that was likely impossible to do, especially in one day. It was a 19 hour drive. No one in their right mind was going to drive for 19 hours straight.

Sam couldn't even stay awake for the full 7 hours he was in school, so thinking about 19 hours was a whole new level.

He looked around him. He wasn't the only one releasing large sighs and exchanging glares at one another. Everyone was waiting for Finn and Puck to return. Everyone included: Mercedes, Kurt, Kurt's friend named Blaine, Brittany, Artie, Mike, Tina, Rachel, Santana, and...

Quinn.

Only two weeks had passed since they broke up, which made things especially awkward whenever they were around each other. Each time their eyes crossed paths with one another, it seemed like neither wanted to break the connection that was pulling them together. Before it was Sam breaking the pull, but nowadays Quinn was breaking away.

"Okay, where the hell is Puckerman and Frankeenteen? We've been waiting outside for almost an hour," Santana Lopez's voice boomed into Sam's ears as he saw his current girlfriend walking back and forth continuously complaining.

"Hate to say it, but I agree with you, Santana." Rachel peeped in, "As much as I love McKinley, this is our Spring Break and I'd rather be in Miami than Lima!"

"What if the Boogie Monster came?" Brittany Pierce added, her voice as serious as possible.

Some of the things Brittany said really made him think. She said it so innocently, most people ignored what she actually said.

Mercedes Jones turned her head to Brittany and shook her head. "Girl, there is no Boogie Monster."

"No, he exists. I've seen him before. He tried to attack me, but Lord Tubbington protected me against him." Brittany continued with her story with details about how she was scarred by the event and how Finn and Puck were probably taken by the Boogie Monster.

If only Finn were truly taken away by a Boogie Monster, Sam thought. No matter how much of a "friend" Finn was to him, Sam could not forgive him for ruining the one relationship Sam had that he knew was out of pure love. After all, being a new student is never fun. Yet, Sam still trusted Finn and joined Glee Club, allowing himself to be open to slushie facials. But, when Quinn came along that day...it seemed like everything changed. He felt as blessed as Jake Sully did when he discovered the Na'vi tribe.

Dammit. Santana told him not to forget what he know about the Na'vis and Avatar.

"...don't worry, I've brought Lord Tubbington with me. At least the Boogie Monster won't come and attack us. Lord Tubbington will scare him away." She ended her story by taking the purring, black and brown cat out from her backpack, earning a groan from almost everyone except Santana.

"I say we ditch this shinding. Puckerman probably did something illegal like usual and got arrested. Puckerman can't take us to Miami, he doesn't have the cash. Trust me, I'd know..." Santana plastered a smirk across her face.

Sam didn't know what to think of that, but he certainly saw what Lauren Zizes thought of that when he stomped over towards Santana, poking her shoulder.

"What was that, J-Lo?"

Luckily even before Santana could have shot back a remark at Zizes about her being from Lima Heights Adjacent, there were two loud honks that drove down the parking lot of McKinley High School.

Sam never imagined Puck to have been the man to be capable of hooking them up with two pricy Range Rovers. But, Sam noticed that something was odd about both vehicles. There was no license plate on the back of them. Then again it was Puck who received the cars, knowing him, he stole them from the Vocal Adrenaline parking lot.

"You're telling me, you managed to get two Range Rovers for free?" Tina said, slightly snobbishly. "I cannot believe you for one second."

"Yeah. You couldn't even afford to buy me a single burger after all the times I've spent at your place. At least Puffy Nips next to you bought me a burger. Am I right, Dwarf?" Santana spit out towards Rachel.

Sam rolled his eyes. Santana was hot, there was no doubt about that. But, he hated how much of a bitch she could be. Constantly making jokes about his overly-sized mouth was not something Sam appreciated too much.

Slowly, he stood up and walked closer to where Puck and Finn were standing with the rest of the crowd. Honestly, he did not want to stand up and look at Finn's face. It was going to take true will power not to punch that doof in the face. For what he did, it deserved more than just a punch.

As he made his way to the crowd, a certain blonde intercepted his way. Their eyes locked for a few seconds. He stared into her hazel eyes. He could already see that they were beginning to tear up, but she ran from him even before Sam could have seen a tears actually drop.

"Keep calm, Sam." He muttered as he walked over to Santana. He stood beside her, even allowing his free hand to wrap around her waist.

Santana stopped whatever and whoever she was insulting and smirked before pulling Sam in for a kiss. Sam kissed her back, but his eyes rolled towards Quinn. She stood next to Finn, cuddling him on his broad shoulders.

Once again, their eyes locked.

But, it was interrupted by the loud and somehow active voice of Puck. It made him wonder who the hell was this loud at four in the morning.

"So, dudes and dudettes! There are seven seats in each car. And, there are like fourteen of you." Puck announced as whole fourteen of them were finally together.

"I'll drive one car and Puck will drive the other." Finn spoke after Puck finished.

"I'll be in Finn's car," Quinn's soft voice followed Finn's loud and obnoxious one.

"I'll be in that car too!" Brittany quickly cried out.

He rolled his eyes because he had an idea what was coming next.

"We'll be in that car too, won't we, Guppyface?" Santana pulled Sam in for another kiss, not even giving him the chance to answer her question.

If he did, he would have said "hell no". Why would he want to be in the same car as Quinn and Finn? Seeing them kiss and cuddle made his stomach churn upside down. Now, he was going to sit for 19 hours witnessing all of that.

"Aw! No one wants to ride with the Puckzilla? I won't promise that we won't have liquor in the car." Puck said with a grin.

Artie raised his hand and rode over towards Puck. "I'm with you!"

"That's one, who else is coming? Rachel? Mercedes? My man, Mike?" Puck called out each of the remaining people's name, prompting them to come to his car.

"I refuse to be seated in your car as I was vomited on the last time liquor was involved." Rachel loudly reminded everyone of the incident at the 'Alcohol Awareness Week' assembly.

After that, nothing was of interest, so Sam zoned out. Also, when you're watching how happy Quinn looks with Finn, you just get lost in your feelings. It's as if she has no guilt about cheating on him. It made him angry because he wanted her to feel guilty, he wanted her back. Her wanted the Quinn Fabray that helped him wipe slushie off his face. Not the Quinn Fabray that went around, kissing other guys and getting mono.

He was interrupted by Puck's voice again.

"Aight. We got Mike, Tina, Artie, Kurt, Blaine, and Zizes," Puck winked at the girl and then continued with his announcement, "in my car. Then, we've got Sam, Quinn, Santana, Brittany, and Mercedes in Finn's car!"

"Hey, I'm in there too!" Rachel called out.

"Yeah, but no one wants you here." Santana shot back.

Rachel just sighed and moved towards Mercedes, who seemed to have been happy that Rachel was going to be in their car.

So, Quinn was officially in his car? Wonderful.
