"COME BACK TO ME"
Disclaimer: I don't own Glee, yadda yadda, you get the point.
Okay, I did this because I drew this couple out of my cap along with two other couples. You can check my profile for the reason. :D

You say you gotta go and find yourself
You say that you´re becoming someone else
Don´t recognize the face in the mirror
Looking back at you
Quinn was having what Sam would call an identity crisis. She couldn't figure out what she wanted to be or who she was. She complained that she was becoming someone else-someone who was always so angry and depressed, someone who couldn't see the joy in life. And when she looked in the mirror, even if it was her own reflection staring back at her, it sometimes felt like looking at someone else's face.
And that scared her.
You say you´re leavin
As you look away
I know theres really nothin left to say
Just know i´m here
Whenever you need me
I´ll wait for you
"Sam, I'm leaving."
It had been a week before their senior year graduation when she told him she was leaving. She said that she would take a year off from college, and that she'd already spoken to her mother about it. Her mother wasn't happy to hear that her daughter would skip a whole year of college, but allowed Quinn to anyway.
"I'm not sure where my travels will lead me, honestly," Quinn had said to Sam. "But I already have my mind set."
Sam knew that there was nothing left to say; there was no arguing with Quinn when she had her mind set on something. If she thought this little trip of hers would do her some good, then he had no choice but to let her go.
The best he could so was support her and wait for her.
So i´ll let you go
I´ll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
"I think it's a great idea, Quinn," He said. And he meant it, too. He would miss her dearly, but he knew that this might help her. If he didn't love her, he wouldn't have told her it was okay to go, or that he supported her. But he loved her.
"I hope you find everything you need, Quinn. And when you find you, come back to me."
I can´t get close if your not there
I can´t get inside if there's no soul to bear
I can´t fix you i can´t save you
Its something you have to do
Sam knew that the forms of help he had been giving her was not really helping. How could he help her if she wasn't entirely there? The best form of help he could possibly give her was to let her go, let her free. He had to let her figure things out on her own, let her make her own decisions, let her make mistakes-these were things that might just help her find who she was or what she needed. These were things she had to do. Alone.
And i hope you find everything that you need
I´ll be right here waiting to see
You find you come back to me
And now, as he stood beside Quinn in the airport, he knew he wouldn't regret letting her go. He was doing the right thing. Quinn had been to hell and back, and she deserved nothing but that best. And both he and Quinn knew that this was the best for her. For the both of them.
Quinn turned to face Sam. "So, I guess this is it, huh?"
Sam nodded. He brought his lips down to her in a kiss. Warmth and love spread through them even as their lips parted. He would miss her so much when she was away. But love meant making sacrifices, right? "I love you, Quinn," He said.
"I love you too, Sam," Quin replied lovingly. She gave him one last hug and kiss then walked away with her luggage. But even then, he knew that this wasn't the end for them. In a strange way, he knew that it was only the beginning.
