Sam had been staying with his Uncle and two cousins over the summer of 1998 it was a hot summer and at 14 year olds they decided it was time to get to know girls, they gave each other a challenge for every day of the 7 day holiday they were about to start. It was always fun coming to stay with his family, their parents saw each other once a year which meant they pretty much got to run wild for a week while the adults caught up. Dean and David's Dad said he knew everyone in the village they lived in so they'd get into no trouble. They were lads trouble followed them everywhere they went and this summer was about to prove to be one of the more troublesome.
Day 1 – Monday
Picture Perfect
"James" Dean shouted as his twin brother came off the plane, with Rose and Sam following
"Dean" James shouted back bringing tears to Rose's eyes she knew how much James looked forward to his week with his brother each year and it always went so fast. She got on with Tina, his wife, but sometimes she could go a bit overboard with this them and us stuff and she felt mega uncomfortable sometimes having to witness her childish, behaviour.
"Dean" she smiled when James finally let go of him and let her get close enough to hug him
"My word Sam you've gotten a few inches taller" he smiled grabbing for his shoulder as he let Rose go "You'll be as tall as me soon but watch I'll still be able to knock you" he joked
"Hello Uncle D" Sam smiled saying
"The boys have gone to the men's you know they have to do everything together" he laughed with James saying at the memory, as Sam nodded his cousins were twins too, they looked a lot like Sam and many a time, with new people they'd try and get off with telling everyone they were triplets but with Sam getting taller every year that was wearing thin
"Cuz" he heard making him spin round to see his Cousin's standing there waiting for him to dive
Sam's smile took no time arriving as he went towards them grabbing them both at the same time "Missed you guys" he told them as they stood smiling
"It's going to be a blast" Dean Junior told him while David stood smiling like a cat
"Aunt Rose" DJ said walking towards her for a hug before fist bumping his Uncle and David followed suit
"We'll get the bags" David told the grown ups signalling for DJ and Sam to follow him "First day starts today and here's the task" he looked around saying "Get a photo, but you can't ask for it any girl just get one by 7 tonight"
"That's not even fair you guys live here" Sam told them not impressed "Plus if my Mom finds out I'm doing stuff like that, you know how she is about this respect thing"
"Don't be such a wimp, by the time any of them find out you'll be on your way back home" David told him pushing him forward to get the bags. Sam was the oldest of the three by three weeks, then David was born a whole 4 minutes before DJ and all of them pulled that rank when they needed to.
"I'm not a wimp I just listen to my parents most the time" Sam laughed "Till 7 tonight?" he asked
"Yep 7" David replied smiling "Game on" he said as they grabbed the cases and went back to find the parents still in deep conversation, Sam taped his Mom and everyone started walking towards the exit.
Aunt Tina was cooking up a storm when they arrived, the oldie worldly home was comfortable, friendly and welcoming in comparison to Sam's home where everything was always so formal, neat and entertaining "Hi Everyone" Aunt Tina came running from the cooker to say as everyone piled into the kitchen, a place Sam's family weren't familiar with having got maids, cooks, butlers and the like all over the place "Let's get you guys settled into some country living" she laughed as she hugged his parents before stopping in front of him "I swear you've grown a foot since I last clapped eyes boy" she smiled as she grabbed him in for a hug.
"A few inches" Sam smiled as he responded "And I guess I've taken them from you" he told her making everyone laugh
"How's Dad?" Dean asked as they settled down "You know I want to know but I don't and all that" he laughed
"He's as well as can be expected" James told him and closed that conversation down
"Dinners ready" Tina shouted and everyone sat at the table as she shared out before the conversations got well on the way
"Mom we're just going down the town" Sam told her as the conversation got to adults only stage
"Fine son but be back by... Tina what time do your boys come in?"
"About 9" she replied looking at the clock
"Way before 9" she smiled at Sam saying
"Mom" he whined
"Okay 9 the very latest, every night" she smiled as he kissed her and left the dining room with his cousins
The boys went and got dressed, joked about for a while before deciding to go to the local cafe and hang out see what pictures they could get, Sam was nervous but he played the game, this kind of thing really wasn't him
"Come on Dude Dream it" David said
"See it" DJ banged the doors saying
"Live it" Sam took a breath and pulled his hand through his hair saying
They walked into the cafe and it was heaving with noise, it seemed like all the under aged kids hung out there. "Is this your whole school?" he asked as they walked deeper into the crowd and DJ shouted names back at him introducing as they went
"Don't know that lot" David said as they turned in the opposite direction to where they were to find seats
"We don't know that lot" DJ told Sam as he looked over to see a group of black people sitting at a table not involved in anything that was going on in the place "Got one" DJ said excitedly as they sat down
"Got one what?" Sam asked him
"Photo fool" he nudged him saying "I got a photo of her look" he said showing Sam and David his picture of this blond haired girl with a fit body and a bright smile
"She's nice" Sam told him raising his eyebrow at DJ choice "Do we have to do anything about these photo's once we take them?"
"No it's just a challenge" David assured him
"Okay" he said taking his phone out to take a random picture, he heard a laugh that made him look up from what he was doing to search the room, he focused on the counter and tried to find the laughing voice but there were too many people there, he carried on looking for his target minutes later hearing the laugh again in the same place "You guys want a drink?" he asked
"Yeah regular soda moneybags" DJ told him as he got up to go to the counter mainly to find the laugh, he got to the counter to find the voice standing with her back to him talking to a group of guys, giving them a real hard time because one of them must have asked her an inappropriate question and all her home girls were hearing her hilarious response to him.
"So I guess your Daddy also told you us black girls are all over that white dick yeah?" her friend asked this poor unfortunate guy that was getting the flack, Sam rolled his eyes and got his order, than that laugh happened again it was right there in front of him and he couldn't help it he moved from one side of the counter to the other he had to see her face. He stood in his prime position done his looking everywhere else but at you thing and when his eyes fell to her face he was struck, he didn't even hide his flash he just held that phone up and took his picture, even if he got caught doing it there was no way he was about to delete it that was the picture of her, that girl that was in his dreams, he'd never actually seen her before but he knew what her insides felt like, how she kissed, what underwear she wore even what she liked to do right after sex, she was his wet dream "I was tryna mind mine, staying off your timeline, I'm get right to the truth, I'm addicted to you, baby" he was singing in his head
"Hello" he heard bringing him back into the cafe "Hello, did you just take a picture of me?" his wet dreams friend walked up to him asking
"No I didn't" he told her grabbing his order and going back to the table where his cousins were "Got my pic" he told them as he sat down
"I got mine" David said almost at the same time, showing his picture of his classic brunette, blue eyed beauty, he just loved that look
"Nice" Sam and DJ said together as they looked
"Lets see yours" David said looking at Sam as he spoke
"Here" he said flicking his picture up of a black girl with a smile that covered her face laughing as if no one else was in the room
"Cuz she's black" David told him
"That's kind of obvious" Sam told him taking the phone away as he spoke pissed at his cousins comment
"What?" David asked him
"You, I show you the girl I picked and all you see is colour, that's just so, I don't know racist maybe" he told him
"I'm not racist it's just how things are here" David told him getting defensive "What did you expect me to say?"
"She's nice, pretty, picture perfect or something, forget it" Sam said putting his phone away as DJ and David looked at each other
Sam spent the rest of the afternoon and into the evening listening to the girl and her crowd laughing, shouting, and generally keeping themselves to themselves later on that evening he watched as they got up met up with the black guys that were on a different table and they all left. Back home he went through the familiars eating their meal, talking and bedtime where he lay thinking about what might happen next "Dave" he finally said to his cousin "When you have one of your dreams, do you see the girl as plain as day?" Sam finally asked
"Yeah I do" he laughed "A different one every night depending on which book I've looked at and now and again I see someone out there and they're it" he told him
"What never the same one all the time?"
"No never unless I'm fixed and I really could get fixed on that Brunette" he laughed "Keep the noise down lads" he told them as they did what they needed to do before they found sleep
Day 2 – Tuesday
Crazy little Games
The day had started off slow with the parents taking them shopping for some god awful reason, Sam had asked for a new guitar a while back and his Dad had promised it would happen when they got there because his brother had the best ear for picking guitars. His Dad had insisted on a Gibson after talking to his brother and established that he was taking this music thing seriously. David was getting some drums, his Dad was on about him learning to play them if it was the last thing he ever did and he'd complied but only because DJ was a master on the Synthesizer and no way was his little bro doing better than him
"Hurry up Mom" DJ said as she stepped off to go to yet another shop "We've made plans to go to the game this afternoon" he told her as David and Sam looked at him "Second challenge" he mouthed to them
"What go to a game?" Sam asked as the boys looked at their Mom for how loud he'd said that "Easy" he smiled
The shopping was finished with lunch and the boys went off to do their own thing leaving the parents to do their thing, early afternoon "So all we have to do is go to the game?" David asked
"Of course not we've got less than 7 days to get laid its not even about the damn game" DJ laughed "We got to bag a cheerleader" he announced
"You're serious?" Sam asked him looking at David as he spoke
"As a judge" DJ said making them all laugh. They made their way to the game and stood looking around for a seat, not just any old seat, one near the cheerleaders to make their job easier "It's the Reds against the Fox's" he told them "You might see your picture again" he looked at Sam saying, Sam's heart jumped at the thought making him blush for the amount of people that might have seen that happen
Twenty minutes later and Sam was past lucky they'd actually taken seats behind the Fox's which he learned from sight was the local high school that the black people as well as the less well to do white kids went to, he felt proud being on their side, at home even, he finally caught the girls attention with how loud he cheered for the team scoring as David and DJ looked at him in disgust at first but when they saw the attention he was getting they joined in, they were all cheerleaders after all and they hadn't specified they had to be from any specific school
"Hey" the girl that had called Sam out the previous day called to him as the game finished "Thanks for the support, we'll be sure to tell our brothers" she smiled, she had a nice smile but it was the girl standing next to her that interested Sam, her eyes were telling him she was interested, her body was asking him to touch it and her mouth god should she actually open it he was sure there would be nothing to hold him back from diving right into it
"Tell your brother was it...?" he asked looking at his girl of choice
"Yeah my brother" she said her voice as sexy as anything he'd ever heard and he knew this already because she spoke to him nightly "Joe" she added "His names Joe"
"Tell Joe it was a pleasure" Sam finally said as David and DJ stood watching his play
"Mercedes by the way" the voice came back at him saying
"Hi Mercy, I'm Sam" he smiled walking towards her with his hand held out "What do you say to a drink at the cafe, with your brothers and stuff" he said as he looked at the four guys walking towards them
"Yeah why don't you girls come too" David asked looking at the Blond and Brunette standing behind the three black girls
"Yeah sure" the blond piped up as Mercedes rolled her eyes
"Who are these fools?" one of the guys stepped forward asking
"Some Fox fans taking us all for a drink at the cafe" one of the girls answered
"What you paying?" the guy asked
"Yeah" David said knowing full well it was coming out of Sam's pocket
"Nice to meet you friend my name's Joe, this is Dan, Mark and Ken" he said looking at the girls "Oh and this is Mercedes my sister, Delrose Dan's sister, Clara Marks sister and these two fools at the back Ann and Dina" he pointed at each one as he spoke "And we can drink" he laughed
They made their way to the diner found a big booth and sat getting to know each other, David and DJ hooked Ann and Dina after the first 40 minutes they were sitting in separate booths having private conversations and Sam was sitting there thinking there was no way he was going to get Mercy an inch away from her damn brother.
"Joe" Clara said across the table and looked at him, nothing was said but he excused himself and left the table with Clara following
"You got away with that shit last night but it's not happening again" Mercy laughed after him as they went before looking back at a puzzled Sam "They're going out and he had time out last night she wants her man tonight" she laughed
"Oh their an item?"
"An item" Mercy laughed "Get you, where do you come from?"
"New York"
"The Big Apple?"
"It's the big something" he laughed "But I prefer it here, I visit my cousin's once a year for a week" he told her
"I live here" she smiled a smile that reached her eyes
"You're beauti..." he tapered off realising they weren't alone "Can we maybe go out on a date later?" he asked as Mercy looked on shocked
"Do I know you?" she asked her face serious
"No I'm sorr..."
"I'm joking I like you Sam, yeah I'll go out with you later but I'm on a curfew I have to be in for 8" she told him
"How old are you?"
"I'm 16 but my parents are protective" she told him
"Oh me too, I have to be in for 9" he smiled " Should we say 5, meet here?"
"Fine" she said as they looked across the table to see Dan and Ken in intimate conversation and Delrose watching them "Oh they're gay and she's trying to work it all out" Mercy told him as if it was common knowledge
"I'm not a lesbian" Delrose told them
"Sam" David shouted across the diner "Time to go" he said as Sam sprung up said his goodbye's to everyone and left with his cousins "So how did it go?" he asked when they got outside
"I've got a date for later this afternoon" he told them
"I'm meeting Ann later too, I know I'm in there" DJ said rubbing his hands together
"I'm meeting Dina later" David laughed "But I don't think I'll be touching her" he shivered
They all got dressed after dinner and left the parents doing their thing they didn't even ask where they were going, Sam smiled thinking he might be able to get in later, and they still might not notice but his Mom had a tendency to notice the things he didn't think she did so he was playing safe and the game was getting exciting anyway his wet dream was coming to life.
"Hi" he said dressed in his usual jeans, t-shirt, sneakers and baseball cap
"Hi" Mercy said standing there in the sexy purple top with the biggest v he'd ever seen leading to her boobs, he lifted his head up when he realised he was staring at them, making her laugh "impressive yeah?" she asked
"Impressive" he told her smiling
The time went fast as they sat finding out about their similarities and likes, smiling a lot and with every visit to the bathroom Mercy came back and sat closer, while Sam did the same with every counter visit and by 7 they were more or less sitting in the same spot on the bench they'd shared for the evening
"I really want to see you again" she shocked him by telling him as he looked at his phone to check the time remembering she had to be in an hour before him
"I'll see you home" he told her getting up as he spoke
"No my brother's out with Clara, I'll have to wait for him to get back for me" she told him "We can wait outside if you want" she told him looking around the diner as she spoke
"Yeah" he grabbed her cardigan saying
They got outside and both were grateful that there was no bench to keep them sitting side by side as Sam grabbed hold of her, he leaned on the wall at the side of the main doors just a bit discrete "Can I have a kiss?" he asked "I've been wanting one since... well I've been wanting one" he said thinking this was not the time to let her know she was his wet dream
"Yes" she told him the breeze from her breath alerting him to how close he was to her face as their eyes softened and their bodies relaxed into the pending kiss, Sam grabbed her bottom lip with his lips pulling back as her eyes closed and a smile formed on her face, before going back in to take her top lip as her mouth took his and they were full on making out. It seemed to go on forever he wasn't looking for an end more an ejaculation as he felt himself grow and had no intention of spoiling his mood, this was the closest he'd ever been to any girl and to think this was the girl of his dreams and she was feeling just as he'd imagined she would "We maybe need to stop" he heard her say as his mouth searched for hers again his eyes still shut
"I guess we should" he finally opened his eyes to say a bit disappointed for the near miss on his peak "I need to see you again" he told her
"You're here for a week" she told him
"I am but, I still need to see you again" he told her realising he hadn't let her go yet
"Tomorrow morning 11 I'll be in town by the clock" she told him
"Mercedes" Joe called "What you doing?" Sam letting her go at the sound of his voice and stepping away
"Nothing just waiting outside for you and talking Sam needs to get home but he wouldn't leave me alone out here" she told him smiling at Sam as she spoke "Thanks" she said giving him a kiss on the cheek
"Is that it?" he asked
"It is with brother standing across the way" she laughed "Tomorrow" she said as she walked away
"So Sam the Man what happened?" David asked as they all met up at the taxi rank ready to go home
"We kissed" Sam said making out it was nothing
"Dina frigging well gave it up, can you believe that?" David told them
"Stop messing" DJ told him "It was a first date, you didn't have any protection, what do you mean she gave it up?"
"She gave it up seriously and well I pulled out" he laughed
"Not funny David, danger, especially with girls that free up on the first date, please" DJ told him "I can hear Dad on that one" he told him as David stood thinking
"I need to get out for 10.30 in the morning so help me out guys" Sam told them as they jumped into the taxi and got home. Sam's goal was so close he couldn't sleep at all through the night he needed some serious gratification but his conscience told him he had to come clean with Mercy before anything like that could happen "Don't even know what to call this shit, do I even know what honest is?
"Sam" DJ finally called some time in the night "For Christ sake stop before that damn thing falls off"
Day 3 – Wednesday
What are we here For
"Mom we're going hiking today" David told his Mom "So if we don't get lost we'll be back for Supper" he laughed
"Keep your phone alive, first rule of thumb" She told him as he kissed her forehead, grabbed some stuff out the fridge and nodded at Sam and DJ
"Okay bye Mom, Dad, Uncle, Aunt T" Sam told everyone kissing only his Mom in the process
"Take care of Sam you know he's not used to all that" James told them
"We will Uncle J don't stress" DJ smiled saying as they all three left the house
"That was just too easy" Sam said with relief in his voice "We've got an hour to kill"
"We can get some protection for brother David" DJ said looking at him disgusted
"I hear you it won't happen again" David told him rolling his eyes
They all went to the chemist David brought a box of durex and shared them with the others "Remember Dude the trick is to stay up near the hills we don't need the oldies finding us in the town any time today" David reminded them as they went their separate ways David to meet Dina, DJ to meet Ann and Sam to meet Mercy
Sam was sitting on the fountain just across from the clock waiting for Mercy to show, kicking stones and trying to think of a way to neatly tell her what was in his head, he wanted sex, of course he wanted sex but not the forget you afterwards type, he'd had visions of living his entire life with this girl, woman, perfection, how was he going to get that across without scaring her off.
"Hi" her voice sang to him making him smile before he even looked up "This isn't the clock" she told him
"I know but I didn't know if it would be safe to just wait so I thought I'd watch" he smiled back "Hi"
"I know that feeling so, what we got planned for today?"
"I'm sorry but we've got to stay near the hills so I guess we'll just walk and talk until we're hungry and then eat"
"Fine, I'm in the hills too so I guess it's the lake"
"Great" he jumped up saying as they walked "I'm assuming you know where these hills are?" he giggled
"I do" she smiled
"You have a beautiful smile" he told her a shyness coming over him, he'd not experienced before
"You have a rather handsome face and a fit body, I guess all that's left is for you to hold it against me, when we're ready" she laughed "My friends tell me I need to be more forward or I'll be left on the shelf"
"I'm fine with you being who you really are, big turn on"
"You got it" she smiled "I take that back then"
"What?"
"That you have a handsome face and fit body" she laughed "No really you know you're cute right?"
"I am if you say I am, and I'm fine with you saying that"
"So what do you do, where you come from?" she asked when they found a quiet spot for them to sit at the lake
"I live in New York and currently I just live with my parents and study, I'm into music in a big way, I guess that's going to be my career, I play the guitar and I just got a new Gibson actually I'm excited about that, I did alright at school and stuff but I don't want to be book crunching all my life" he said looking at her for a reaction but she was just sitting listening "I want all the usual things in life you know wife, children, home even a family dog" he laughed "it's all in my head"
"So what kind of music are you into?"
"Fresh stuff like Trey Songz you heard of him?" he asked before he started singing "What are we doing alone? Tough, standing still just waiting for this moment, what are we holding on for? Hesitating, both our hearts are open, why would you wanna leave? Don't you feel secure? Rest assure, I got you covered, got your back taken for Go the distance, nothing shorter"
Mercy jumped up and joined in singing the chorus as they danced around "What are we here for, what are we here for, what are we here for, let's be an example right now, we don't want to regret this, what are we here for, don't say maybe later then maybe turns too late, oh what are we here for"
They stopped in front of each other both looking awkward but feeling like where they were was the most natural place to be "Sam I …." she trailed off and moved away to sit back down "I need to tell you something" she said when he sat down beside her concern in his face "This sounds so silly" she looked at him saying
"Nothing you say could ever be silly, just say it" he told her "Is it the colour thing?"
"What no, no it's not that unless it's that for you?"
"No it's not any sort of issue for me" he told her grabbing her hand "Just say it"
"I know you" she said looking at her hands "I said it was silly" she half smiled awkwardly
"What do you mean you know me?"
"Don't freak or anything but I dream you in like sexy dreams, I know your body, I know how you feel inside me, I … I can't explain that other than to say I know you that way and when you walked into the cafe that day I saw you way before you saw me I was just dealing with some racist shit, I saw you take the photo and I was praying you'd see in my eyes how that made me feel"
"Mercy" he said looking at her
"I know you think I'm mad but it felt real to me"
"I don't think you're mad I know the same about you, I've been having dreams about you since I've known what to do with myself and when I saw you I was blown away, I took the photo because I needed my mind to know you existed and although all I've ever felt about you is sexual I need this to be more because all that wife, children and stuff it all involved you and that shit is freaky because we're still so young"
"You know we're going to face some shit don't you?"
"Yep, oh, one last thing" he looked at her saying "I didn't mean for any of this to be a lie, my cousins and I started this thing as a got to get laid in a week thing, I have no intention of that being the case with this because I'm only 14 I'll be 15 next month and in my book us doing that would bring some sort of criminal offence against you"
"No it wouldn't I'm 14 and I'll be 15 next month too the 21st to be exact so no offence"
"I'm the 21st too" he looked at her wide eyed saying "This is just so freaky"
"Go on say it" she laughed "We are perfect for each other"
"I'm actually sitting here fast learning not to mess with God's plans" he told her his face serious "So apart from being intimately attractive to me, shy and sexy what else do you do?" he asked as they settled back into conversation
"I sing, a lot, at church, school everywhere, that's just want I want to do with my life go round singing and making the world a better place" she smiled
"I just heard you sing a bit I was impressed, but what do you like to sing?"
"Ballard's definitely Ballard's" she said excitedly
"You know I'm going to ask for one, so?" he looked at her his eyes playing with her as he looked, she got up ad sung him her version of 'Don't mean a Thang' by Leela James "I am so impressed" he jumped up saying "You're cream rising to the top" he grabbed hold of her saying
"You think?" she asked as their eyes met
"I know" he told her seconds before grabbing her lips, after that they talked and made out all day remembering to eat about 2 and then again about 6 before the lake bar started to get packed and evening fell and they made their way back to town "Cafe?" he asked as they swung their linked fingers through the air walking
"So Sam" Mercy said getting his attention "What are we doing here is this like a summer fling or what?"
"I know we'll have this distance thing going on and my parents come here once a year but I just have this feeling that we were meant to be together?"
"I've been having a distance thing we you for over a year now" she laughed "Who's to say we're not meant to be together?"
"I'd love to see you tomorrow but I know Dad and uncle want to take us fishing so we'll be back late and Saturday the Mom's go mad for family stuff and Sunday I'm travelling back after church" he looked at his feet saying "Can I call you?"
"I don't have a phone" she told him
"Do you want one?"
"What do you mean do I want one, everyone wants a phone but they don't come that easy"
"I need to be in touch with you, this long distance thing is going to be real difficult if you don't have a phone, please let me get you one?"
"My parents will go mad"
"I'll put it on vibrate they'll never hear it"
"Okay but if I get caught with it that's your money down the drain" she told him as he looked around for a shop to buy her one from, after she'd made her choice they sat setting it up and putting numbers in, showing her how to send and receive texts and got her a pouch to keep it in "Thanks" she finally said landing a kiss on his lips
"Mercedes" they heard again making them laugh as they'd been caught in the kissing position
"Don't even ask me what I'm doing" she turned and told her brother still laughing
"Come on we're running late" he told her before looking back at Sam "We will talk" he pointed at him saying as Mercy rounded on Sam and kissed him again this time pulling him in by the neck and taking her time about it, Sam grabbed her round the waist and joined in, oblivious to anything going on around them
"Friday" she told him "But you know me" she smiled
"Friday" he smiled as she walked away with her brother 'That's what I'm here for' he thought
Day 4 – Thursday
Nobody Else But You
"Hey Morning Boyfriend" Sam heard down the phone when he picked up the ringing that woke him out his sleep
"Morning Girlfriend, that was so sweet, we're officially dating" he smiled down the phone "But you know you disturbed us yeah" he laughed
"I figured you might be going through the same thing as me this seems to be nightly since I actually saw you" she laughed
"God yes, I can't believe how in tune we are"
"Do you think it's safe for us to be around each other with this need thing going on for us?"
"Hey none of that chat" he laughed "I don't want nobody else but you, I don't want nobody else but you, ooh ah ah, Nobody else but you, ooh ah ah" he sang "you hearing me?"
"Yeah I'm hearing you" she laughed
"What you doing today?"
"Singing I guess, I plan on just sitting around waiting for you nothing new, only I actually know you exist now"
"I'll probably be sitting at the lake thinking about yesterday and tomorrow, hey at 2 we think of each other yeah?"
"I'll phone"
"No don't phone I'm with the oldies they'll ask questions and I don't lie to my parents"
"But we went to the lake yesterday"
"Yeah my cousins lie all the time and I just go along with them, I'm a good boy" he laughed
"Good boys can turn bad you know?"
"I plan to" he told her cheekily
"Sam" he heard on the landing
"I got to go 2 remember, I miss you already, bye"
"Miss you too, bye"
"Sam the fish are not gonna jump in your bed boy come on" his Dad shouted through the door
"I'm coming" he shouted back
"Let's hope that's metaphorically not literally" he shouted back laughing
Sam spent the day making everyone know it wasn't his number one thing to do, the only time he perked up was just after lunch about 2 when he went into a world of his own for about an hour and then David, DJ and he played that much their Dad's said they'd frightened all the fish away so it was about 7 when they finally packed up had a meal at the local restaurant and headed home for just before 9. Sam called Mercy's phone when he got to the bedroom but she didn't answer he fell asleep waiting for her to return the call
Day 5 – Friday
#1 Fan
"Mercy" Sam almost shouted down the phone when she answered, he couldn't believe he'd fell asleep instead of waiting for her call back "I missed your call I fell asleep sorry"
"Sam I didn't call you, I was at practice and then I came in late went in the bath and fell into bed" she laughed "I just woke up and saw your missed call"
"I guess yesterday took it out of both of us"
"Yeah but today's ours yeah?"
"Where we meeting?"
"At my house, everyone's out for the day" she told him and he knew there was expectation in her voice as she gave him the address and told him she'd see him in an hour, Suddenly he was nervous as hell, not only was he about to give his virginity away, he was about to take someone else's and that was serious stuff, it had been his dream for so long he couldn't think straight
"Okay bath, dressed, breakfast" he told himself jumping out of bed, he didn't lie to anyone just left the house and made his way to the taxi rank calling DJ on his way and asking him to tell them something anything and he'd be back for maybe 6 that evening
He got to Mercy's house it was a small wooden structure with a veranda that went all the way round the house as far as he could see and all on one level
"Sam" she shouted as the car pulled up bringing a smile to his face he paid the guy jumped out and went to her "Come in" she quickly said looking around as she did "Nosy neighbours" she told him as she shut the door "Well this is us" she looked around saying as Sam stood in the kitchen looking around "Bathroom, Parents room, Joe's space I can't call it a room and the living room" she said pointing as she spoke before walking towards the living room "Sorry do you want a drink or anything?" she stopped to ask
"Please, whatever you're having" he smiled as his eyes followed her around the kitchen as she fetched and poured, when she gave him the glass she walked past him and back towards the living room opening the door he saw a large couch with scatter cushions a TV and table with four chairs and a beautiful dresser with some real antique glassware and wooden ornaments, he stood admiring them for a short while before he looked across the room to see Mercy still travelling and hurried to follow her
"This is my room" she told him as he looked around the purple princess room with a smile on his face for his dated Spiderman get up in his room
"Purple Princess" he smiled "I like"
"As an after thought I got the room that was built after the original house was built, so I'm on the opposite side to everyone else, I like it though" she told him as she slammed herself down on her bed "I thought we could just chill and make out and stuff" she zoned in on his eyes saying
"I swear I just read your mind then" he laughed
"I just put something in your mind" she told him getting her sexy chat on, as he felt his pocket and rolled his eyes
"David brought protection the other day and I left it in my other trousers, sorry"
"Sorted" she said leaning over to her side cabinet to take a box out her move revealing more of her upper leg than Sam was geared up for, he nearly dived in but she came back at him with the protection and he caught that instead
"Is this what you really want?" he asked
"We're in my house, I'm on my bed I think the question is, is this what you really want?" she smiled
Sam didn't answer he approached the bed with some urgency grabbing her face and kissing her deeper than he'd ever dared before, stopping when he realised this was no thank you Mam sex scene in his head this was the woman he planned on spending the rest of his life with. He looked at her for the longest time making sure they were in the same place emotionally, physically and sexually before he took her lips again much softer this time as they fumbled around not knowing where to touch or what to say in his mind all he could do was sing "I don't wanna do too much, I don't wanna speak too much, I don't wanna breathe the wrong way, I don't wanna kill this moment, this moment shared between us cause I been thinking 'bout it all day, oh woah' you told me I'm all you wanted, I don't wanna ruin your expectations, and all your body language, I'm gon' read it, as best as I can (as best as I can) cause tonight I am, having sex with my number 1 fan, so why am I so nervous? So why am I so nervous? Having sex with my number 1 fan, so why am I so nervous? Having sex with my number 1 fan, so why am I so nervous?
Mercy's mind had been racing since her parents announced they were taking Joe to some college visit up in Los Angeles and her Grandmother would be popping in the check on her, she knew that wasn't going to happen Grandma never checked she'd have to go see her. Sam was going back to New York in a few days, they'd decided they were going to be together and she needed something other than tired fingers to remember him by, she was out to get what she needed from him and she knew he was a willing candidate, she couldn't remember them having a kiss that his hardness wasn't pressing into her threatening to push through her wet draws. So now she'd got him in her bedroom, the fact that he'd professed to being a good boy the day before let her know she'd have to lead on this and she was going to give it everything. That kiss he'd lunged at her with was hard, talk about instant gratification she went from entice to need now in zero seconds and he was blowing her mind with that stare stuff that brought her from now to pretty please and I so love you she needed to give him all of her whatever that meant, slow down she told herself in her head she started singing I don't wanna move too fast, boy I wanna make it last, today we gonna do it my way, oh, I know you been waiting for it, I gotta just lay back, I just wanna take my time, babe, you told me I'm all you wanted, I don't wanna ruin your expectations, and all your body language, I'm gon' read it, as best as I can (as best as I can) cause tonight I am, having sex with my number 1 fan, so why am I so nervous?, So why am I so nervous? Having sex with my number 1 fan, so why am I so nervous? Having sex with my number 1 fan, so why am I so nervous?
"Are you ready for this?" he finally pulled away asking as she pulled him back in and carried on as if he'd said nothing their hands started wondering finding familiar unfamiliar places and bringing smiles as unspoken satisfaction came to their eyes. Sam moved to the side and grabbed the protection off the side cabinet, there was an awkward moment when they both looked at instructions and laughed before getting to grips with it and he put it on before they made that painfully pleasant journey from childhood to adulthood together laying there not long after having done the deed "Are you alright?" he finally asked when he'd got his breath back
"I'm fine but please tell me that's not it, I didn't shudder" she laughed
"I think I was more focused on the hurt noise than the shudder stuff I couldn't help mine" he frowned "It will be better next time I promise" he told her as they lay still
"You ready? When I leave it up to me, s/he sees, will I give her/him everything s/he needs? I just hope that when we're done s/he's pleased, I hope it's everything you thought it'd be, oh" they both sung at the same time laughing
"It was" she smiled and more
"And more" he laughed
"Go get that thing off" she told him following him to the bathroom as they both washed up and went back to the bedroom
"You ready to go again" he asked her a smile on his face "I guess we could get a bit more adventurous now don't you think?" he said wiggling his eyebrows and making her laugh hard which soon turned to a wiggle and a moan followed by an explosive scream when he brought her to peak with his mouth
"That Sam Evans was a whole lot more than a damn shudder" she giggled as her body still shook out of control as he watched her coming down from her high and so the afternoon went on "what time you got to get back?" she finally asked him some time later that afternoon
"I said 6 but I'm fine to call DJ he'll make something up for me, I don't want to go just yet"
"Addicted?"
"You are aren't you?" he asked
"So are you" she laughed "Was it the same as your fantasy?"
"No" he said making her frown "It was more than that" he told her grabbing her nipple with his teeth making her scream before sucking it so hard she melted into the bed
"Sam" she said ready for more of the same "insatiable Sam" she closed her eyes saying as he took her back to where she'd been less than an hour ago before switching things up on him and doing the same for him laughing when he screamed louder than her
Finally it was 8 and Sam knew he had some explaining to do at home because he'd been missing all day, still he reluctantly said bye to Mercy "Sam" she shouted after him "If you ever cheat on me don't ever tell me" she told him
"What?" he came walking back towards her asking
"I don't want to know, and if this is it for us, it hurts but I'll learn to live with it" she told him
"Mercy" he said picking her head up "You're it for me, I would never have done all that we did today with someone I didn't care about, I'd go as far as to tell you I love you, I know I do, but I really don't need you freaking out on me" he smiled "I know we're only 14 but in 10 years time you're Mrs Evans believe that" he smiled "I want to marry you eventually"
"You don't freak me out Sam, I so needed to hear that, I love you too" she smiled "And I'll hold you to that marriage proposal"
"Please do" he kissed her saying "Sing it" he told her as they both sang "Had sex with my number 1 fan (so why was I) So why was I so nervous? (Nervous, baby) So why was I so nervous? Had sex with my number 1 fan (I just wanna get it right for you, baby) So why was I so nervous? Had sex with my number 1 fan (I just wanna get it right for you, baby) So why was I so nervous?
"I'll see you in Church on Sunday but don't talk to me" she told him as he drove off, leaving him asking the question in his mind 'why?'
Day 6 – Saturday
Priceless
"Come on Sam, every day nearly we've had to wake you up then yesterday you get up and disappear for the day, now I'm here again forcing you out of bed what's up son?"
"Nothing Dad I just sort of made a new friend and well it was just fun hanging out for the day and stuff" he smiled "I'll be down in a bit"
"Hurry up Mom's got a full day meeting some family or something" his Dad told him before walking out the room
Sam wanted to shout from the rooftops meet my new family, meet your damn daughter in law, meet the woman who took my virginity while giving me hers, meet the love of my life but he didn't he went into the bathroom did his thing and came out to be faced with DJ and David
"No noise last night Cuz leads me to believe someone's not a pure as driven snow any more, I wonder what Aunt Rose would make of that" DJ laughed
"Maybe the same as Uncle Dean would say about David's unprotected sex the other night" he told him closing that conversation down
"Seriously Cuz remember she's black, don't get too involved" David told him he wanted to jump up and take his lights out, he needed to say something, but then thought to say anything might insight them to do anything, he wasn't around when Mercy would have to contend with them and their hate, better not to put her on any radar for them so he left it, got dressed and joined the family
"Hi Sam your like the prodigal son" his Aunt commented he smiled but only because he'd been grown with manners
"Well" his Mom said planting a kiss on his forehead "We're going to Silvers Stake House for Lunch but we're going to see Dionne first and her lovely daughters" she smiled brushing Sam's hair back off his face, telling him without words that it needed cutting "Then we're going to see a show I think you'll be really interested in this Sam someone called John Mayer's playing and singing"
"Oh brilliant" he jumped up saying leaving his breakfast half finished, his mind focused on calling Mercy "hi" he stood outside the house saying as she answered the phone "I missed you last night" he told her
"I missed you too Sam, can you get away for a few minutes today?
"I don't know Mom's itinerary sounds pretty full but if I can I'll call you and meet up somewhere"
"Try please" she begged "I think it's just dawned on me that you go home tomorrow and I really don't know how I'm going to cope"
"I'll try" he said into the phone suddenly upset for this restriction on his time and leaving her feeling like that "I'm sorry Mercy I've got to go" he said as he heard the noise coming towards him
"Try Sam" she said, and he knew she was crying but the phone had gone down, his family were out the door and he just didn't know how he was going to call her back and have that conversation without having to explain to them what he was doing
Sam hadn't managed to squeeze a second from this family of needy people his Mom had hooked up with the girls were like laughing hyena's and turned up everywhere he went and if it wasn't them it was their damn parents asking if they needed anything else he was mega glad when dinner time came, only to find they were joining them as they sat at the large dinner table boy girl boy girl all the way round like they were couples or something, he sat looking miserable for not getting back to Mercy. Something told him to look up and as he did he was met with her face sitting on the other side of the room from him with her parents and brother and two other people, his face lit up as much as hers did for the few seconds before they realised they weren't actually going to get to talk to each other
"You alright" he mouthed to her
"Yes" she rolled her eyes saying but he knew different, she wanted him and God did he need her 'Why do I think I just read your mind?' he looked at her thinking as a smile came to her face telling him he had 'Read my mind' he looked at her saying in his head 'Girl, your love is priceless, one thing I can't afford to lose, and even though I ball, I would trade it all, to keep you in my arms, baby, cause, girl, your love is priceless, flying in all the jets I flew, yea, and even though I ball, I would trade it all, to keep you in my arms, baby' he smiled "My Queen" he mouthed
"I love you" she mouthed back making him hold his heart
"What's the matter Sam" his Mom looked at him asking
"Nothing" he smiled as Mercy chuckled in her corner "Love you" he finally mouthed back
The rest of the day he sort of tried to get on with and was happy when he finally landed in bed and texted for about an hour with Mercy just talking about their day and their love
Day 7 – Sunday
Come over
Sam woke up with a spring in his step it was Sunday and although it was his last day there he was actually going to see Mercy in church and he was going to take full advantage of that. He'd enjoyed the concert last night, definitely his kind of thing although having the oldies there sort of made everything very adult for him so there was no getting involved with the crowd throw back comments or anything, but in essence a good night had by all.
DJ and David had admitted they'd finally slept with Ann and Dina and they were fully fledged dogs now and he'd told them, he couldn't go through with it and forfeited the 20 dollars each to his Cousins
Church came round fast and Sam was one of the first dressed as he stood outside sending texts to Mercy waiting for a reply putting his phone away just as he felt it vibrate "Damn" he said as the family came towards him
"Eager Cuz" David said knocking fists with him
"Home today Cuz" DJ told him as if he didn't know that "Oh and just so you know we don't talk to the blacks in church"
"What do you mean?" Rose asked him as they stepped into the car and Tina looked at DJ angry
"The Blacks sit on the left we're on the right" he told her
"Get out the car Sam" Rose told her son "We want no part of that" she told her sister-in-law "We'll just stay and pack"
"Mom we don't have to live like them we can do what we want I have every intention on sitting on the left" Sam told her making her smile as she changed her mind and got in the car
"You and me both" she grabbed his hand saying "Anyone would think your grandfather was still alive" she told DJ disgusted
They got to church and seriously, if they could have found anywhere to sit on the left they would have, it was packed. Sam sat looking around for Mercy for a long while as the family had chosen almost at the front to sit so it looked bad him keep looking back for her but every opportunity he got he tried to find her 'Where are you Mercy?' he finally asked bringing a smile to his face when she answered 'Here' and he looked round and directly at her 'Hi' his eyes told her before his Mom nudged him and he turned back quickly 'Come here' he willed her and he knew she'd heard him but she didn't move "Come over, can you come over? Yeah, come over, and I know you're not supposed to but I need you close, boo, come over, even though we fell apart, don't you even start, girl, you still got my heart, come over, you know where I am, if you can't, I understand, won't you come over? won't you come over?" he sung in his head turning to look at her asking the last line to see her laughing 'I'm coming over then' he told her 'No you'll get me in trouble' she told him back. Before they knew it the service was over and the children played while the adults talked, of course they took the opportunity to be children again and went off to say goodbye for a hot minute
"Don't lose your phone" he told her
"I won't and I'll phone every other day"
"Promise?"
"Promise" she told him as they heard his Mother call him
"Shit I've got to go" he stood saying knowing he had to move but not wanting to "Mercy remember I love you"
"I love you too Sam" she grabbed his face saying as he grabbed her top lip and tasted the cherry on it before grabbing her mouth "Sam" she pulled him back saying as she wiped her gloss off his mouth "Bye" she said as she watched a tear fall down his face, he'd taken maybe five steps before he looked back and saw her tear ran back and wiped it away
"Wait for me Mercy" and he was gone
