As I See It (College Years)
Sean was sitting in his dorm room studying for an economics test he had the next day when his roommate walked in being loud and annoying as ever.
"Do you mind I'm trying to study?"
"Oh my bad bro" he said "I just had a rough day at practice today."
Sean just nodded and rolled his eyes and went back to studying.
"So do you have any more DJ'ing gigs lined up?"
"I have a couple for next week why?"
"Just wondering"
Silence fell over the room and Sean was so happy he didn't need to force any more conversation with this guy, but soon the silence was broken;
"So how do you know Mercedes and Santana?"
Sean looked shocked as to why that question came so out of the blue "we have a class together. How do you know them?"
"We went to high school together for a year before I transferred" Matt said
"Oh so you know Sam too?"
"I met him here actually he came the year after I left McKinley."
Sean just nodded and went back to studying.
"What class?"
"What?"
"What class do you have with Mercedes and Santana?" he asked.
"Music Appreciation" Sean said "why are you so interested?"
"Just wanted to know" he smirked "I'm going to hang out with some friends I'll see you later."
"Alright" Sean said shaking his head going back to his studies. I don't trust that dude as far as I can throw him he thought I'll just keep my eye on him.

Santana was just coming home from cheerleading practice and walked in to see Puck sitting on the couch watching TV.
"Hey" she said putting her bag by the door.
"Hey" he replied "you look tired."
"I am" she said plopping down next to him "coach had us working extra hard today because we are getting ready for a competition."
"Oh" he said taking a sip of beer.
Silence fell over the room both wanting to say something but neither one brave enough to speak first.
"So" Puck said.
"So" Santana said.
"Are we going to talk about what's been going on between us" Puck asked.
"I guess we should" Santana said "I just don't know where to start."
"I say we start at why we can't stay away from each other."
"I don't know I guess it's because we are in a new city and don't really know anybody so we cling to each other and since we got Trouty and Wheezy going at it all the time it's hard to not want some too and you're here so."
"Yeah but it feels different" he said looking at her directly in her eyes.
"Yeah I know, I feel it too" she said "I just don't know how to deal with it."
"How about we start here" he stood up and pulled her from the couch cupped her face "Santana Lopez will you go out on a date with me?"
Santana laughed "are you serious?"
"I don't joke about these things" he said "I want to take you on a real date just me and you. We get dressed up and go to a nice restaurant and dancing afterwards."
"And what is all that supposed to prove?"
"If we have a good time and want to continue doing that we could decide if we want to make this official between us."
"Puck you know I like my lady kisses."
"I know that and you know I am all about being a part of that" he said with a smirk on his face "look we make our own rules for our relationship. One thing I do know is I like you Santana and I wanna see where this could go for real this time not like in high school."
"I like you too Puck" she said "and if there is something going on between us then I guess we should find out what it is."
"So is that a yes you'll go out with me?" he asked.
"Yes Puck I will go out with you" she said smiling "when is this date going to take place?"
"How about Saturday after the game?" he said.
"That sounds good to me" she said.
"And Santana" he said.
"Yeah Puck" she said.
"Where something sexy" he winked and turned to go in his room.
"I always do" she said going into her room.

Sean had some great news and the first person he wanted to tell his news to was Mercedes because he knew if things worked out the way he planned she would be a huge part in his master plan. He quickly grabbed his phone and scrolled down to Mercedes name to call her. She finally answered on the third ring;
"Hello"
"Hey Mercedes its Sean" he said.
"Hey Sean what's up?"
"I just got the best news of my life and I wanted to share it with you."
"Ok what is it?"
"I just got a huge gig to do a show at the Hard Rock" he said "it's for up and coming producers and artists to come and show a group of record executives what kind of show they could put on with limited resources and time."
"Wow Sean that is amazing" she said "I am so happy for you."
"Thanks" he said "but this is why I wanted to talk to you. What you, Santana, and I did at the party was amazing and I would love for the two of you to help me out and be a part of my showcase."
Mercedes looked at the phone as if she could not believe what she had just heard.
"Mercedes are you still there?" he asked.
"Yes I'm here" she said "are you serious about having us in your showcase?"
"Very serious" he said "I am putting a full band together as quick as I can because we only have three weeks to make a great show that the big wigs will love."
"So what if they do love it then what?" she asked.
"They could hire me as one of their producers."
"That is amazing" she said "well you can count me in I would be more than happy to help you out with your show."
"THANK YOU SO MUCH MERCEDES!" he yelled "you have maybe just helped me start my career and I will never forget that."
"I will hold you to that once you all big and famous" she said laughing "so you are going to have to ask Santana this time."
"Ok I will do that" he said "this news is so big I don't mind telling everybody."
"So just let me know when you are ready to start rehearsing."
"Will do" he said "it will be soon."
"Ok well I'll talk to you later Sean."
"Alright Mercedes" he said "and thanks again."
"No problem Sean bye."
"Bye" he said smiling from ear to ear.

Sam had been practicing all week with the team and coaches getting him ready for the game on Saturday. The coaching staff spent extra time with him so that he could perfect the plays that they made. His teammates were also becoming more comfortable with his leadership. After the last practice before the game Sam was in the locker room getting showered and changed when Matt came up to him,
"Looking good out there Evans" he said "coach was real impressed."
"Thanks man" he said putting on his shirt "I felt good out there. I think I finally got that trick play that coach wanted me to get."
"Yeah I saw you were struggling with it at first."
"Yeah for some reason I was just not comprehending what exactly I was supposed to do but eventually I got it."
"Yeah you did" Matt said "so how are Mercedes, Santana, and Puck doing?"
"Everybody's good" Sam said "you haven't been back to the apartment since that day."
"Yeah I've been busy."
"Well you know you are welcome any time."
"Thanks it's so good to have friends out here" he said "sometimes I get so lonely out here you know?"
"Yeah I know" Sam said "even being here with Mercy I do still miss my family."
"Are your folks coming out for the homecoming game?" he asked.
"Yeah" Sam said "they are already making plans with Mercy's family to come out here that weekend."
"Wow it's so cool your families get along so well."
"Yeah if my dad had his way Mercy and I would already be married."
"That's kinda heavy seeing as you guys are still so young" Matt stated.
"Some might say" Sam said with a huge smile "but I would have married Mercy right after graduation if she let me."
"You're joking right?" Matt asked "you would seriously get married so young."
"If the girl was my Mercy then I would do it in a heartbeat."
"Dude you are sprung" he said.
"That I am" Sam said "I am so in love with that girl it's sometimes scary."
"And you know for a fact that she feels the exact same way about you?" Matt asked.
"I know she does" he said "Mercy tells me every day but that's just words she shows me with the little things she does."
"What do you mean?"
"Like she is genuinely concerned about me when we're not together, she makes sure I eat properly and she make sure I got clean clothes and she always make sure I'm doing well with my classes because she knows my dyslexia sometimes messes with me and I get frustrated."
"So she is like your mother?" he joked.
"OH HELL TO THE NAW!" he yelled "the things I do with Mercy I would never do with my mom."
"She has definitely rubbed off on you" Matt said laughing.
Sam laughed "she just looks out for me and I do the same for her. I promised her dad I would take care of his baby girl."
"Now I know her parents and I would have never thought they would be so cool about you two living together."
"It took some major convincing" he said remembering that conversation "but they realized we were going to be together no matter what even if they didn't give us their blessing."
"Well maybe one day I'll find a love like you and Cedes" Matt said "but not right now because I am going to enjoy all the free pussy I can get while in college."
"Well you enjoy man" Sam said "while you're out "looking" for pussy I'll be at home where mine is guaranteed" Sam smirked and glanced at his picture of Mercedes before he closed his locker and headed out humming Love, Sex, Magic.

"Excuse me is this seat taken?"
"Yes"
"Well I don't see anyone sitting there."
"My friend went to the restroom but she will be back."
"Well I'll just keep her seat warm until she gets back."
"What do you want?"
"I wanted to talk to you."
"I'm not interested in talking to you."
"I'm Matt by the way Matt Rutherford" he said extending his hand.
"I didn't ask."
"Listen I am here to help you."
"Help me with what? I don't even know you so how could you possibly know I need help."
"I know you have your eye on a certain quarterback and I also know he turned you down flat on several occasions but if you don't want my help getting him then I'll just go" he said standing up.
"No wait" she said grabbing his arm "please have a seat. I'm Katie by the way."
"Nice to meet you Katie" he said.
"So how are you going to get Sam away from that cow?"
"Before we discuss that you need to know this I will not tolerate you disrespecting Mercedes ever you got me?"
She nodded looking shocked at how quickly his demeanor changed.
"If I hear it again you will be on your own when it comes to Sam and you will fail."
"Fine I got it" she said "so how are we going to get Sam away from Mercedes?"
"You leave everything to me" he said "all you have to do is be waiting for my call and look pretty on my arm in public."
Katie had no idea what she was getting herself into and at that moment she didn't even care all she knew is that she wanted Sam and she was willing to do anything to make that happen. They exchanged information and Matt told her that he would keep in touch.
Part one of my plan is now in motion and now all I need is to get reacquainted with my New Direction family and get them to trust me again. Mercedes Jones you will be mine again and no white boy is going to stand in my way.

Sean saw Mercedes and Santana in class he let them know that he had most of the band together and he wanted them to come in for a rehearsal on Saturday.
"Sean I can't do Saturday" Santana said "I have plans."
"What plans?" Mercedes asked.
"I have a date" she said smiling.
"With who?" Mercedes said getting very excited.
"Puck" she said nonchalantly.
"PUCK!" Mercedes yelled "when the hell did this happen?"
"Calm down Wheezy" Santana said "we are just trying to figure out if there is anything going on between us since we seem to always end up in each other's bed after a night of partying."
"I'm happy for you guys" Mercedes said "I hope you two do get together because just like Sam and I was obvious to the two of you, you and Puck are just as obvious."
"Whatever" she said "so Sean when is the next practice?"
"Sunday night" he said.
"I'll be there" Santana said "I am so excited about this. Thank you so much for even thinking about me."
"That was a no-brainer the moment I heard you sing" he said "I just need one thing from you guys."
"What's that?" Santana asked.
"I have a partner in this and he wasn't at the party and he wants to hear you guys sing to make sure you guys will fit well with the sound we're trying to achieve."
"Doesn't he trust your judgment?" Mercedes asked.
"Yeah he does but he also wants to see for himself" he said.
"We understand" Santana said "will he be at rehearsal?"
"Yeah he will."
"Ok we'll sing for him then."
"Ok, well I gotta get to class" he said "I'll see you on Saturday night Mercedes and you on Sunday night Santana."
"Bye Sean" they said in unison.

Saturday turned out to be a really good day. Sam lead the Bruins to another victory and his coaches and teammates were so excited about Sam's leadership skills and his finesse on the field. He was cool, calm, and collected under pressure and he was even able to pull off the trick play which led them to the win. Mercedes was in the stands screaming so loud with yet another version of her number 6 jersey. They decided to skip the after party because Mercedes was going to rehearsal with Sean and his band and Sam decided to tag along so he could support his girl and to hear her sing because he loved that. They pulled up to this building that looked abandoned;
"Are you sure this is the right place Mercy?" Sam asked.
"This was the address Sean texted me" she said.
"It looks abandoned" he said.
"I know right" she said "I'm going to call Sean to make sure."
She called him and he let her know that she was in fact in the right place. She and Sam walked up to the door where they could hear the music playing. When they walked in the inside did not look like what the outside said it should look like. It was very spacious and music instruments and equipment was everywhere.
"I'm so glad you guys made it" Sean said "I am so ready for you to start rehearsing with the band, well most of them anyway."
"What do you mean most of them?" Mercedes asked.
"We have yet to get a guitar player or a bass player."
Mercedes smiled and looked at Sam and then at Sean.
"What are you smiling about?" Sean asked.
"I might have your problem solved" she said looking at Sam again.
"Mercy you know how busy I am with practice and classes" he whispered.
"Wait Sam you play?" Sean asked.
"Yeah I do" he said "but I can't really commit to rehearsals due to my already busy schedule."
"We can work around your schedule" Sean said "Trey we got a guitar player" he yelled to a guy across the room.
"Wait I never said I would do it" Sam said.
A tall light skinned guy came over to join them "what are you talking about Sean?"
"Sam here plays the guitar" Sean said.
"Is he any good?" Trey asked.
"He is amazing" Mercedes said looking at her man with so much adoration.
"I do ok" Sam said.
"Well you must be Mercedes the woman Sean says has the most amazing voice" Trey said shaking her hand.
"I do ok" she said mocking Sam's tone.
"She does better than ok" Sam said smiling "she is as amazing as Sean said."
"Well I can't wait to hear you" Trey said turning to Sam "and you too."
Sam was stunned he was not here to play just to support his girl.
"Come on babe we can kill two birds with one stone."
"What do you mean babe?"
"I have to sing and you can play for me" she said "that way they can hear you play too."
"So what are you going to sing?"
"We can do the song we have been singing during our jam sessions" she smirked.
Sam smiled thinking about their naked jam sessions but he had to shake the thoughts from his head "ok but I need to run back to the car and get my guitar" he headed out to the car. He came back in and got set up along with the rest of the band.
"I'm ready whenever you are Miss Jones" Trey said.
"Ok" she said turning to Sam "you ready babe?"
"Yeah I am" he said "I already told the band what song and they know it."
"Great" she said "I'm ready."
Sam starts to play;
(The Truth by India Arie)
[Spoken:]
Let me tell you why I love him
[Chorus:]
Cause he is the truth
Said he is so real
And I love the way that he makes me feel
And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly cause
His light it shines so bright I wouldn't lie
[Verse 1:]
I remember the very first day that I saw him
I found myself immediately intrigued by him
It's almost like I knew this man from another life
Like back then maybe I was his husband and maybe he was my wife
And even, the things I don't like about him are fine with me
Because it's not hard for me to understand him because he's so much like me
And it's truly my pleasure to share his company
And I know that it's God's gift to breathe the air he breathes
Cause he is the truth
Said he is so real
And I love the way that he makes me feel
And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly cause
His light it shines so bright I wouldn't lie
[Verse 2:]
How can the same man that makes me so mad
-Do you know what he did-[spoken]
Turn right around and kiss me so soft
-Girl do you know what he did-[spoken]
If he ever left me, I wouldn't even be sad, no
Cause there's a blessing in every lesson
And I'm glad that I knew him at all
Cause he is the truth
Said he is so real
And I love the way that he makes me feel
And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly cause
His light it shines so bright
I love the way he speaks
I love the way he thinks
I love the way he treats his mama
I love that gap in between his teeth
I love him in every way that a woman can love a man from personal to universal but most of all its unconditional
-You know what I'm talking about-[spoken]
That's the way I feel
-And I always will-[spoken]
There ain't no substitute for the truth
Either it is or isn't
Cause he is the truth
You see the truth it, needs no proof
Either it is or it isn't
Cause he is the truth
Now you know the truth by the way it feels
And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly
Cause he is yes he is
I wonder does he know [echoes]
Trey sat there with a stunned look on his face. He looked over at Sean who had the brightest smile on his face.
"I think we have a singer and a guitar player" Trey said.
"Mercedes you were amazing as always" Sean said "but Sam I had no idea you could play like that you killed that guitar."
"Thanks" Sam said.
"We will work around your schedule as long as you can be here for the performance we can work with that" Sean said "please say you'll help me out, I'll be your best friend."
Sam laughed "yeah I'll help you out man no problem."
"Thank you Sam" Sean said "I owe you big time and I never forget when people do me a favor."
"It's cool man" Sam said "I love playing so it will be fun."
"We might be able to solve your bass problem too" Mercedes said smiling.
"Puck" Sam said shaking his head "he can play a mean bass."
"You mean your other roommate?" Sean asked.
"Yes" Mercedes said "he is pretty awesome."
"Do you think he will do it?"
"We can ask" Sam said.
"If he says yes I'll ring him with me and Santana tomorrow night."
"That will be great well let's go over some of the music we decided to do" Sean said.
After they all rehearsed for a few hours they called it a night and Sam pulled Mercedes to the side;
"Hey I feel like having a jam session tonight."
She giggled "you haven't played enough tonight?"
"I haven't played with you" he said wagging his eyebrow.
"Well I think we have the house to ourselves for a while since Santana and Puck are out on a date so I think we can squeeze in a jam session" she said.
"Well then let's go home baby."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Puck and Santana were out on their date and as Puck requested Santana wore a sexy black low cut mini dress with silver strap heels and silver accessories. Puck did not disappoint with his black slacks that fit to perfection, black button up shirt, and black shoes. He took her to Del Mar restaurant which was like Breadstix in Lima and she loved it.
"I love this place" she said "you know me so well."
"That I do" he said "so now that we have had a great meal would you like to go to Circus Disco and dance it off."
"I would love that."
Puck paid the check and they were on their way to the club.
"By the way" Puck said "have I told you how sexy you look tonight?"
"Only a few dozen times" she said smiling.
"That's all" he said "I must be slippin, Santana Lopez you look so good tonight I am the luckiest man in the world tonight to have you on my arm."
"Puck when did you get so sappy?" she asked
"I don't know" he said "it just seemed to happen, what you don't like it?"
"I didn't say that" she said "as long as the bad ass Puck is still in there cause I like him too."
"Oh you know he still in there" Puck said "you saw him the last time you was in my bed" wagging his eyebrow.
She just smiled and licked her lips thinking about their last sexual encounter "yeah that was hot."
They made their way I the club and ordered a few drinks and got loose when Santana heard a song come on that she loved. She grabbed Puck's hand;
"Come on dance with me."
"Right behind you" he said.
