(Takes place after "the substitute")
After Mercedes had sabotaged Sue's Lacar with the potatoie goodness of Tater tots, she had no choice but to be Sue's personal servant as punishment, unless she wanted to be sued and expelled. She had to wash the Cheerio uniforms and Sues track suits, refill Gatorade and water bottles, Moe Sue's lawn and laugh when ever Sue insulted hair dew. This was only a small list of the stuff she had to do.
Mercedes prayed if she was good and did all her tasks perfectly, Sue would let her go to The Prince charming dance. It was a costume ball the school held every year, with delicious food and dancing. Mercedes didn't dare ask Sue if she could go. It was the day of the dance and Mercedes had just finished polishing Sues trophies in her brand new trophy annex she had specially built.
"Hay wheezy." Santanna called. Mercedes turned to see the head cheerio in the doorway.
"Principal Sue wants you in her office now." She added. Mercedes grudgingly did as she was told. When she entered the principles office Brittany, who had a sad expression, greeted her. Santanna and her Brittany stood agents the wall. Sue sat on the Green leather armchair across from a tired Mercedes.
"Well Whoopi have you finished all your tasks for today?" Sue asked.
"Yes." Mercedes answered.
"Yes what-?" Sue asked darkly. Mercedes groaned.
"Yes Grand-High Principle Sylvester, Master of all she surveys and makes William Shuester look like a little boy with greasy hair and a deformed Butt chin."
"Very good Whoopi." Sue praised with an evil grin. "Now through secret intelligence I have all over this school, I have learned that you want to go to the dance tonight."
"Yes ma-" Mercedes was cut off by Sue's narrowed eyes.
"Yes Grand-High Principle Sylvester, Master of all she surveys and makes William Shuester look like a little boy with greasy hair and a deformed Butt chin."
"I'm letting you go." Sue informed her servant. Mercedes started beaming.
"On one condition" Mercedes heart sank.
"You finish this list of assignments." Sue handed her a list of chores.
Mercedes understood.
"You may go now." Mercedes did as she was told, but before she stepped out of the door, Sue called:
"By the way Aretha, if those chores aren't done you can't go and if you go any way, as Principal I will exile you from Glee club understood?"
Mercedes turned around and said once more:
"Yes Grand-High Principle Sylvester, Master of all she surveys and makes William Shuester look like a little boy with greasy hair and a deformed Butt chin."
It was later in the day; The Glee club did a mash up of singing in the rain and umbrella by Rianna. Holly Holiday had helped the kids with the song. She noticed Mercedes at her locker, looking depressed.
"Hi Mercedes what's wrong?" The depressed teenage girl looked up at the taller woman.
"Principal Sue wont let me go to the dance, unless I do a list of chores for her, by the way do you know were I can buy plutonium? Its on my list." Holly thought for a few moments then said:
"I got it, how about you skip the chores and I help you get ready for the dance?"
"But ill be kicked out of Glee club." Mercedes explained.
"It's a costume part right? Who said you have to be you?" Holly smiled as she took Mercedes arm and walked down the hallway with her.
Several hours later:
Mercedes was in a glamorous blue and black gown, her hair was lifted up in a gorgeous fashion and her shoes were translucent pumps. (It was either the pumps or Kurt's Lady Gaga shoes."
"Mercedes you look beautiful." Holly complimented.
"Thank you Miss Holiday, but why are you doing all this for me? The teen girl asked.
"Because I feel bad about not helping you enough with the whole tater tot incident with Sue's Lacar. This is my way of fixing it." The substitute teacher explained. "Now my dear I have all your chores taken care of and I got you a limo." She explained. "Keep in mined it will only stay at the school till midnight so unless you want to walk in those shoes for a long time also I heard that Sue may make a surprise appearance to make sure know one is disobeying the rules, so suggested you watch the clock."
Mercedes hugged Holly.
"Oh hear before I forget." The substitute teacher handed Mercedes an eye mask made with blue beads. Mercedes once again thanked Holly and left for the school in the elegant and strangely colored orange limo.
The school was beautifully decorated, with colorful balloons and Cray paper. Everyone was dressed in funny all the way to outrages costumes. Sam hated these kinds of dances; all he wore was a black suit and a white-eye mask. Including a cape. The Glee guys had pushed him into it and being their friend, he agreed. Sam was standing next to the punch bow, watching everyone, however there was only one person that caught his eye. She was a beautiful dark skinned girl, wearing a blue and black gown that seemed to flow on her like water. With much courage, Sam walked over to her and tapped her on the shoulder. When their eyes met they were entranced.
"May I have this dance?" He asked with a smile.
"Of course." She answered grasping his hand. He twirled her around the dance floor. They laughed and kept dancing, not paying attention to the time. Mercedes never had so much fun. Of course they both Knew who each other was, but the fun of playing naive was invigorating.
Santanna noticed Mercedes on the dance floor.
"I'm calling Principal Sue. I know for a fact that girl did not do at least one thing on her list." As Santanna went to grab her phone Brittany grabbed her wrist.
Santanna looked up at the pouty face of her best friend.
"Please Santanna let Mercedes enjoy this." Brittany begged. Santanna sighed.
"I can never say no to you." Santanna kissed her friend on the cheek and bonded pinkies.
As Mercedes was being twirled by Sam she saw the time on the clock 11:58.
"I've got to go." She said in a panic. She let go a confused Sam who went after her.
"Mercedes Waite!" He called but she did not respond except for accidental loosing one of her pumps. She practically jumped into the orange limbo and it sped off into the night. Sam picked up the Shoe and stared out into the night.
(The week after New Directions lost Nationals)
Mercedes went to her locker and opened it to reveal her lost pump and a note attached to it.
"Come to the auditorium after school and bring the Pump."
Mercedes was intrigued and did just that. She was alone on Stage for only a little bit till a familiar blonde figure appeared in the wings.
"I've been waiting to give you that for such along time." Sam said.
"About time." Mercedes joked nervously.
"I want to see if it still fits." He said drawing closer to her. She gave him the pump and took her foot out of her Shoe. Sam went on his knees and slipped on the pump with ease.
"Perfect fit." He smiled as he stood up.
"Yep perf-." Mercedes was cut off by Sam's lips on hers. It was so wonderful, how did Lady Gaga describe it? Aw yes it was like Ice cream topped with honey.
There lips parted after what seemed like ages.
"Ever since that night I've been very attracted to you Mercedes, I know I don't have much, but I can give you so much when it comes to being a good boy friend, that is if you'd be my girlfriend?" Sam asked.
"I think you really are my Prince charming." She said smiling.
