I really like doing these. They are fun when you get stuck in a story.
Without the Girl – Daniel Bedingfield
Sam didn't want to live without Quinn. He prayed that one day she would come around and want him but right now, she was still getting over Finn. Sam tried not to let her know how much he still liked her, no, loved her. He hid his heart from her because he wanted her to come after him for once. Sam wanted to be chased. He sat in the boy's locker room with Puck, Finn, Artie and Mike. The summer had come gone and football was back up. Sam's parents had finally landed jobs and his family was renting an apartment. He felt much better about everything.
"Evans, I heard you were with 'Cedes," Puck said from across the room.
Sam shook his head. He wasn't with Mercedes anymore. They tried things out but neither of them felt any real chemistry. It just wasn't there. Plus, the girl knew his heart wasn't with her. It was still with the blond ex-head cheerleader.
"Nah, we broke up within the first month of summer. There wasn't anything there," he said with a shrug of his shoulders.
"Dude, I'm sorry," Finn supplied.
Sam shook his head. There was no reason to be sorry. Except for the fact that the girl of his dreams only wanted to be friends. That kind of sucked.
Mike put his hand on the blond's shoulder. "Giver her time dude, she'll come around. We all know how much she loved you."
All eyes were on the usually quiet Asian boy. He wasn't one to give advice out like that. Though everyone knew exactly who he was referring to.
"Don't look at me like that," the boy said to the other three. "Unlike you three, I can keep a girl. I can stay in a relationship without cheating or being idiotic." He turned back to Sam, "Much like you, man. Give her time."
Sam smiled at him. He appreciated the boy's advice. Though he felt it wasn't going to work, he still was thankful that Mike was his friend. Sam shrugged his shoulders and walked out of the locker room to the parking lot outside. His eyes were trained to the floor but the moment he looked up, they caught the eyes he'd been dying to see.
Quinn licked her lips and smiled at him in that cute way. He had never seen her smile at anyone else that way before. Sam blushed a little and smiled. No, he wasn't going to live without the girl and maybe...just maybe, it seemed she felt the same way.
