Best Friends
Sam and Mercedes were best friends since first grade. Sam and his family moved next door to the Jones family and since their first meeting Sam and Mercedes were inseparable. Now that they were in high school thing were still the same. Their friends called them "Frick and Frack" because they were always together. You would never see one without the other. They were sitting outside in the courtyard at school with their friends eating lunch;
"Logan did you bring-"
Before she could even finish Sam handed her a granola bar.
"Great I love these" she said taking the granola bar.
"Can you hand me-"
Before he finished she handed him a bottle of water out of her bag.
"Thanks I was so thirsty" he said taking a swig of water.
Mike and Tina were watching their exchange in shock.
"You guys are too weird" Mike said.
"What are you talking about man?" Sam asked.
"The way you two know each other's thoughts and know exactly what the other one wants or needs is freaky" Mike explained.
"I think it's cute" Tina said "I just wish that they would just get together already."
"What are you talking about Tina?" Mercedes asked "Logan and I are just friends you know that."
"Yeah I know what you guys say but I know what I see and I see two people who need to be together."
"Benz and I are best friends and we would never ruin our friendship by dating" he said "what if it doesn't work out?"
"And what if it does" Tina said "you guys already got pet names for each other."
"They are not pet names Tina" Sam said "they are nicknames."
"Yeah we didn't want to call each other the same things everybody else calls us so we came up with our own nicknames."
"Well I understand why you call her Benz as in Mercedes Benz" Mike said "but why do you call him Logan?"
"Logan is Wolverine's real name and we bonded over our love for X-Men so I call him Logan" Mercedes said.
Just then a group of Cheerios walked by and one of them apparently caught Sam's eye because he was focused really hard on her.
"See Tina I don't think Logan is interested in a relationship with me" she said pointing out the Cheerio he was staring at "he has his eye on Ms. Fabray."
"I don't have my eye on her" Sam said "I just think she is pretty."
"Please Logan" Mercedes said "you were practically drooling just then. I think you should go talk to her."
"She would never be into a guy like me."
"She would definitely be into you" Mercedes assured him "you are a good looking guy and very funny. She would be crazy not to want to be with you."
"You think so Benz."
"I know so, but if it makes you feel comfortable I will ask her how she feels about you."
"You'll be my wing woman" he said laughing.
"I always am Logan."
"I will have to do the same for you one day" he said.
"Oh I'm going to hold you to that."
After lunch Mercedes was at her locker and she saw Quinn walking down the hall and she waved her over.
"Hey Quinn" she said
"Hey Cedes" Quinn said "how's it going?"
"Going good I want to ask you something."
"Sure what is it?"
"How do you feel about Lo- I mean Sam?"
"I don't know" she said blushing "I mean he's cute I guess."
"So would you go out with him if he asks you?"
"I don't know I guess" she said "are you pimping out your best friend?"
Mercedes cracked up laughing "not exactly pimping him out just trying to help him find a good girl to hang out with besides me."
"Oh ok well since you think I'm good enough for your best friend I guess I should be honored."
"You should" she joked "I just think you and Sam would be cute together, so should I inform him that he needs to properly ask you out?"
"Yeah give him my number and tell him to call me" she said writing her number down and gave it to Mercedes "between you and me I have been waiting on him to talk to me since he stares so much."
"I told him that, but you make him nervous Q."
She just laughed "well I'll be waiting for his call."
"Oh he'll call, bye Quinn."
Mercedes was waiting on Sam after school by her car and he walked over to her;
"Benz what's up?"
"Not too much Logan just waiting on your slow behind to get here so I could go home."
"Sorry I had to stay over to talk to my teacher about some extra credit work so I won't fail American History."
"You know I love history I can help you."
"I know, I have to come up with a presentation on the American Revolution, too many dates and facts makes my brain hurt."
"Well you know I got your back Logan and I'll help you figure everything out, but I got something that will make you feel better."
"What's that? Cause I could use something good today."
She went in her purse and pulled out a slip of paper and handed it to him.
"What's this?" he asked.
"Look at it" she said.
He opened the paper and his eyes bugged out of his head "is this what I think it is?"
"If you think its Quinn's phone number then yes it is what you think it is."
"Are you serious right now" he said excitingly.
"Who's the best wing woman in the business?"
He grabbed her and hugged her picking her up and swinging her around "Benz you are the best."
"Put me down boy" she screamed "I am glad you're happy but I want my feet on the floor this instant."
"Sorry Benz" he put her down "I can't believe you got her number."
"She is expecting your call, and you know I always come through for you Logan."
"You always do, I owe you one."
"Oh I do plan to collect."
"I know."
"Now let's go so I can get home I got a lot of homework to do" she said.
They jumped in the car and headed home. When they reached the house they jumped out the car and were heading to their perspective homes;
"Hey Logan let me know when you call her."
"You'll be the first call after I hang up with her."
"Cool Beans."
"I can't believe you still say that" he laughed "and you call me a dork."
She shrugged "you are, but I am not going to stop saying that I love cool beans."
"Bye Benz."
"Bye Logan."
She was sitting in her room listening to music and doing her homework and the theme song from Superman began to play;
"Hey Logan did you talk to her?"
"Yes I did Benz" he said "and I asked her out Saturday night and she said yes."
"I knew that she would."
"How did you know she would say yes?"
"Because she told me that she liked you and she saw you staring at her and was wondering when you were going to ask her out."
"She saw me staring" he said mortified "oh no she probably thinks I'm weird now."
"If she did she would not have said yes, so calm down and get it together."
"You're right as usual."
"I know. Well I'm glad you got your date but I still got homework to do so I'm going to say goodnight to you Logan."
"Goodnight Benz and thank you again, you're the best friend a guy could ask for."
"You're a great friend too."
"Night" he said.
Saturday night got here so quickly and it was date night for Sam and Quinn. Sam was so nervous and excited about the date. He could not make any decisions about what to wear so he called the one person he could think of to help him;
"Benz I'm freaking out over here."
"What is the problem?"
"I can't figure out what to wear."
"Ok come to the window."
"Ok"
"Logan you couldn't put on some clothes first" she said.
"What? I'm wearing a towel I just got out the shower."
"Whatever" she said rolling her eyes "what options do you have?"
He showed her a blue and a green button down shirt.
"Go with the green shirt it matches your eyes" she said "and a pair of black slacks will do just fine."
"Should I wear a tie?" he asked.
"Where are you taking her?"
"Breadstix."
"No you don't need to wear a tie" she said "it's not you anyway you just need to be yourself Logan. Don't try too hard to try to impress her she already likes you."
"Ok I got it" he said "so I'm going to get dressed now, thanks for the help."
"Anytime" she said "have fun tonight."
"I will and I will call you when I get back and tell you all about it."
"You better" she said "bye Logan."
"Bye Benz."
Sam and Quinn got to the restaurant and were seated by the hostess.
"Quinn I am really glad you agreed to go out with me."
"I'm glad you finally got up the nerve to ask me" she said smiling "I mean you stared at me long enough."
"You think I am a creeper don't you?" he said shyly putting his head down.
"No, just was wondering when you were going to stop staring and just talk to me."
"You kind of made me nervous" he said.
"Yeah Cedes told me."
"I can't believe she told you that" he said "I am going have to have a talk with her about that."
She laughed "she just wanted to make sure I didn't think you were a creeper and she told me how great of a guy you were so she pleaded your case and that is one of the reasons I gave you my number."
"Well if that's the case then remind me to buy her flowers" he said "so what was the other reason?"
"I thought you were cute" she said smiling.
"Really well that makes two of us."
"You think you're cute too?"
"No, well yeah, but I think you're way cuter."
She laughed at how nervous he got around her but it was cute and she liked it. The rest of the date went well. They enjoyed each other's company and talked more comfortably as the date continued. He took her home and gave her a quick kiss goodnight right after he asked her for a second date and she agreed. He smiled all the way home and after he took a shower and got in the bed he called Mercedes.
"Logan, are you just making it in?"
"Nah, I've been here for about an hour but I had to shower first."
"So how was it?"
"It was amazing" he said "we had such a great time just talking and laughing at silly things, she laughed at my jokes."
"Wow and you're not that funny" she said laughing.
"Hey my jokes are hilarious."
"Sure they are. So did you kiss her?"
"Benz, you know southern gentlemen never kiss and tell."
"Logan you've been here since you were six you need to cut the southern gentlemen crap out" she laughed.
"My daddy has raised me in the southern ways woman and I will always be a southern gentleman."
"Whatever Logan, did you kiss her or not?"
"Ok yes I kissed her and before you ask it was good" he said with a huge grin on his face.
"Way to go Logan" she said "I'm happy for you."
"Thanks and she agreed to go out on another date with me."
"Ooh another date when?"
"Friday night after the game" he said.
"Oh" she said sounding a little sad.
"What's the matter?"
"Nothing Logan I'm happy for you, well I'm going to bed I'm tired."
"Oh ok Benz I'll talk to you tomorrow."
"Goodnight Logan."
He forgot our after game tradition she thought. After every game we go to pizza place get a large meat lover's pizza go back to the house and watch sci-fi movies. "He is dating now so I just have to get used to him not being able to do the things we used to do all the time" she said to herself. Superman theme bean to ring out;
"Yeah Logan"
"I can't believe I forgot our after game tradition" he said
"It's ok" she said "go on your date, it will be other games unless Friday nights are going to your regular date nights."
"No Benz" he said "I'll change my date with Quinn to Saturday night because my Friday nights has always and will always belong to you."
"Are you sure Logan? I don't want to mess up anything with you and Quinn since you guys just started going out."
"I am positive, I'm sure she will understand."
"Ok Logan I will see you tomorrow."
"Yeah you will, sleep well Benz."
"You too Logan."
