One Decision Changes Everything

Chapter 2

Sam shook his head, "Could you repeat that?" he asked, sitting up straight, and moving closer to her. Clearly he misunderstood her. So he thought.

She closed her eyes, saying it one time was hard enough, now he wants her to say it again, sighing again, as she clasped her hands together in front of her. Just like ripping off a Band-Aid, Mercedes, you can do this. She says to herself. "I want you to get me pregnant!." she repeated, as she opened her eyes, giving him a pleading look.

She said it so quickly that all the words merged together, and if he didn't know her so well, he wouldn't have heard her. But he heard her. God, did he hear her. The grimace on her face was adorable. It was as though she was holding her breath waiting for him to tell her she was insane, or yell at her for requesting something so ludicrous.

"You want...what?" he asked, still not to sure what to say, completely confused, and shaking his head, as though that would help him to understand better. This was not what he expected her to ask. Well to be honest he really didn't have no idea what she was going to ask, but this, this just took the cake.

She run her fingers through her hair, " I want a baby Sam, and I don't want to wait till I meet Mr. Right, I know we are friends. and I know this is asking a lot of you" she bit her lip, "Sam, please say something?" Mercedes said, in a low whisper. She was desperate to know what he was thinking. His opinion matter more to her then anyone elses.

" Um..." he said, as he continued to look at her wide-eyed. When she said she needed a favor he never imagine her asking this. A baby? she wants a baby with him, that was a lot to process. Truth be told he was kind of longing to be a dad to especially tonight, as he watched how happy Artie was. But he doesn't just want to have a baby he wants everything, he wants the marriage, the big house, the dog, most importantly he wants love. having a family has always been one of his dreams, yes it's taking a little longer than he expected it to, but he always figured someday, someway, somehow it would happen, when it's suppose to.. Not that having a baby with Mercedes Jones is a bad thing, hell she's Mercedes Jones for god sake. At one time she was his dream, she was the one he wanted to have his children, she was the one who he used to picture a future with, and deep down he knows she's still the one. But this isn't how he thought it would happen.

"Okay," she said, noticing he wasn't going to say anything anytime soon. " I know this sounds, absolutely insane, " she stood up. " And I know millions of things are probably going through your head right now, It's just...I want it...I mean... I know it's stupid to even ask, and...Oh God, I can't believe I am even here, standing in front of you, and rambling like a lunatic," she said quickly. " I wouldn't have asked you if I had any other choice and..."

"Well, that makes me feel special," he said slowly and squinting, interrupting her rant. She'd always found that squint undeniably sexy, and certainly seeing it now wasn't helping her situation any.

"No! I didn't mean..." she started. "You know what? Forget I even said anything.. This was...this was a mistake."

She was beyond embarrassed. He'd barely said two words, and she'd said far too much. She was sure he'd never speak to her again. She could feel her face getting hot, and just before she turned to leave room she saw the smirk on his lips. He was laughing at her. Great. This was so not how she thought this would go, well she really didn't know how it was going to go. She can't believe she actually asked him, she figured she would chicken out.

"Mercedes," he said urgently. "Wait." She took a deep breath, and turned around to face him. " Sit down, let's talk about this, let's lay it all out on the table." he took her hand, and led her back to the couch.

She sat back down, looking at him." I pretty much already did Sam, there isn't more to say, I want a baby, and...

" Are you sure you really want a baby?" he interrupting her again. " Or it's because you've heard stories from Santana about how incredible I am in bed, so you just want a great fuck, Cause if that's the case, I'm all yours..." he wriggled his eyes brows..

"Sam!" she squealed, swatting his side as he laughed. "I'm serious!"

"I'm starting to get that impression," he said with wide eyes as he chuckled. He raised his hand, and rubbed the back of his neck like he always used to do when he was fighting an inner battle, trying to make a quick decision. " Okay, seriously you do get what you're asking of me..right?"

She nodded, " I know its crazy, but I'm thirty Sam, I am so tired of the blind dates, and the crazy sets up. I know they say everyone has someone out there for them, which I am starting to think that theory is wrong, at least when it comes to me." She admitted sadly.

" Mercedes, someone is out there for you, I know it, you're going to find love and have a family, I promise. You just have to wait."

" I don't want to wait anymore Sam," she said, as her eyes filled with tears, "I honestly don't even want the real family part, I just want a baby, I check out adoptions, and I even consider that whole Artificial insemination thing. Then I read a lot of horrible side effect online about it, so I marked that off the list."

He couldn't believe she even considered that, " Mercedes," he whispered, as he grabbed her hand. He felt bad for her he was starting to see how much this really means to her...

"My biological clock is ticking Sam, and I can't stop it." she cried. " I'm so jealous, of Quinn and Santana, and now Kitty, I'm surround by moms, all my close friends have kids, If Tina gets pregnant, I'm probably going to have a melt down, " she paused. "What is wrong with me just wanting one, I just want to be a mom Sam.."

He pulled her close to him, allowing her to cry into his chest. His heart broke for her, as he wondered how long she felt like this. " Nothings wrong with it Mercy," he said, as he kissed the top of her head. He closed his eyes, thinking things over, having a baby with her really isn't a bad idea, she would be a great mom, he would love for his son or daughter to look like her. "Why me?"

She looked up at him, " What?"

He wiped her tears away, before saying" Out of everyone you know or even a compete stranger, Why do you want this with me?"

Mercedes was taken back by that question, out of everything she thought he would ask, that one never crossed her mind. " Well, first off most the guys I know are married, and I did almost sleep with one of the guys Brittany set me up with, But...at last minute I couldn't go through with it." she exhaled loudly, " Because I know you, I trust you, I know you care for me like I care for you, and you would be a great father. If you want to be."

He nods, for a second, before her words dawn on him. " What do you mean if I want to be?" he asked, not liking where this was going.

" I'm just saying that there is no strings, If we do this, and I do get pregnant, you have a choice to be in the baby's life as his or her father, or uncle, or not in its life at all.. Sam, I won't ask for anything, I will do this on my own, so if you do find your prefect match one day like I know you will, your free, you're not responsible for me or the baby."

No he didn't like the sound of any of that., " No, I wouldn't do that, if we do this, and if we do have a baby, I want to be in his or her life, I'm not one of those deadbeat parents,, I won't walk away from my child, and I won't let you do this alone either."

" I know you won't" she smiled, " That another reason why I picked you, I want my child to have a big heart like you...and it doesn't hurt that your cute," she teased, easing some of the tension in the room.

Sam smiled, " Oh really...It doesn't hurt that you cute either." He teased back. " We are going to have the most adorable cute baby ever."

" I know" she smirked, laying her head on his shoulder, as she picture what their child would look like, " Oh My God. " she snapped her head up looking over at him, just realizing what he just said. " You said we are going to have the most adorable cute baby ever, " she repeated his words, " So...does this mean...you're on broad with my crazy idea?" She asked, in a hopefully voice.

Sam locked eyes with her, giving her a huge grin, " Yes, I'm on broad, Let's make a baby together Mercedes Jones..."

She hugged him tightly, " Thank you Sam, " she whispered as they hugged, " God, I can't thank you enough, this means so much to me. " she whispered, as they contuined their hug. " You just made me so happy Sam."

Sam closed his eyes, enjoying the feel of her in his arms, me to Mercedes, me to, he said to himself. " So, do you have any idea, when you would like to start trying?"

She pulled back, " Um... " she thought for a moment, "How about we meet here Friday night, around eight, it will give you a week to decide if you really want to do this, if you want to back out then you don't have to show up. I'll completely understand, "

This was like a dream come true for him, yes the dated back in high school, but their relationship never crossed that line. Even though he really, really wanted to.. "Okay, so Friday night..." He repeated, He couldn't believe he was actually setting up a night to when he was actually going to have sex with Mercedes Jones, it's going to be one long ass week...
