Hey everybody here is the next chapter. Let's see what Mercedes does. Thanks for reading. I still don't own glee.

Mercedes rolled over and looked at her alarm as it blared and jumped up. She overslept. It was 9:45 and she was supposed to have picked up Jayden at 8 am. She knew it was because she spent the entire night listening to Mike talk about Tina until he fell asleep. She turned over and called a cab to come over and pick him up and then rolled over and stared at the ceiling before getting g up. She grunted as she ran to the shower and quickly wash up. She got out and began brushing her teeth and unwrapping her hair when she heard the bell ringing. She quickly spat out and ruffled out her afro curls and wrapped her bathrobe around her body before running down the stairs to find Mike standing at the door with his shirt in his hand and Sam looking as if he had the wrong door. Behind him was Aaron and Jayden holding bags with the same look. "Oh hell to the no…he did not just answer my front door like he lives here." She grunted to herself as she made her way to them.

"Where's my mom?" Jayden asked pushing past Mike and noticing her glaring behind him. "Mom, who is that?"

"Just a friend that is on his way home." Mercedes said walking over to the door and glaring at Mike and then smiling at Sam who was glaring at Mike as well. "Come inside, Sam! I am so sorry I overslept." She moved aside as Sam and Aaron walked in. Sam looked at her bathrobe and then at Mike's bare naked chest and then continued into the kitchen. She could tell what he was thinking and hated what this looked like but the kids were there and she did not want to get into it.

"Well I guess that explains everything." Sam grunted.

"Mercedes, I am so sorry." Mike whispered. He noticed that she was angry and she was happy that he noticed because of him she was looking bad. "I didn't notice how late it was…"

"Put your shirt on Mike." She bent down and grabbed his sneakers and pushed him outside. "You need to go…like now."

"Wait…hold on…" he scrambled to put his shirt on and then his shoes as Mercedes pushed them into his chest and followed him outside. "Is that your boyfriend or something?" Mike asked and for a split second she felt her belly flip. She looked behind her and noticed that Sam was looking right at them through the window. "Oh wow…he is…just my luck. I finally find a cool chick that I like and she already has a boyfriend."

"Hold up!" Mercedes placed her hand up just as the cab pulled up. "Ain't nobody said anything about him being my boyfriend…and you have some nerve. You're not even over your ex!"

"I am!"

"No…Mike…you're not! You came all the way to Lima for her and now that she is dating another man…which by the way, the guy last night was definitely gay…"

"How do you know that?"

"Look my gaydar maybe off but homeboy damn near snap crackled and popped just by looking at my heels."

"They were really nice ones."

"What color were they Mike?" she asked and watched as he tried to remember the color of her heels. "Exactly. He would have told me the color, length, maker and price if I had asked him, but that's besides the point. You need to go talk to Tina and get your girl back." Mercedes crossed her arms and watched as he opened the door to the cab.

"Alright…well…can I at least get a hug from one of the best dancers I have ever met?" he asked with pleading eyes. Mercedes sighed and moved towards him and hugged him before stepping back and watching him get in the cab and leave. She turned and walked back to the house and inside to find Sam gathering his bags.

"I got us some breakfast but I guess I'll just take mine and leave. The kids took theirs upstairs." Sam stated not looking her way. She could tell he was upset and right now he had every right to be. He probably felt used. She was supposed to be blogging not going out on a date.

"Umm Sam can we talk for a second?" she asked placing her hand on his arm to stop him. "I really feel I should explain what happened here last night."

"No, you don't need to explain anything to me. I think I know exactly what happened here last night." He looked her way.

"Wait a minute, you think I had sex with Mike? That's not at all what happened, Sam. I came home to blog and he asked me out…"

"Mercedes, what you do when you're alone with your boyfriend is none of my business." He stated cutting her off.

"First off, he is not my boyfriend! And secondly, you're right it isn't any of your business what I do. You have a girlfriend to worry about don't you?" she retorted.

"For your information, Tina is not my girlfriend."

"Who was talking about Tina?"

"I have no girlfriend, period."

"I have no boyfriend either!"

"Than what are we arguing about?"

"I don't know!" she shouted back and then they both fell silent. "Look, I really left the pool party to work and then he asked me out and I said yes. I would have taken him home last night but he was locked out and had no where else to go."

"That's still none of my business."

"Yeah I know I just don't want you thinking that I left Jayden with you so that I could go on a date." She walked over to the takeout bag and grabbed two plates. "But I would really like it if you both stayed and had breakfast with us for a bit." She watched as a smile spread across his face and mirrored his smile back.

"I'm sure Aaron would love that." He replied and followed her to the kitchen.

After breakfast, Sam and Aaron ended up staying a bit longer. Sam stayed in the livingroom and watched a movie while Mercedes was on her laptop blogging. He wanted to ask her questions about what she was blogging but decided to just let her be. He was happy to be there instead of having left like he wanted to the moment he saw that man answer her door. It was almost as if he had walked in on his girlfriend cheating on him again. Back when Aaron's mother was alive, he had walked in on her cheating on him with his coach. The affair almost caused them to break up but then she got really sick and he took her back and helped her out for Aaron's sake.

"So how did you meet him?" he asked causing her to look over at him.

"Who Mike?" she asked as if he had known the man's name. "I'm embarrassed to say but my friend convinced me to sign up on a dating site called Lima Meets." She covered her face as she giggled.

"Wow really?"

"Yeah, don't judge me. It's been an experience I have to say."

"No judgment here."

"I actually thought Mike was cool. We had a lot in common like dancing and such but then last night his ex came by and he became a wreck. Next thing you know…" she paused and looked over at him. "I shouldn't be telling you this."

"No it's fine I'm a great listener." He lied. He tuned out after she said they had dancing in common. Sam couldn't dance worth a thing. How could he compete with a guy like that?

"Either way, I'm not seeing him again." she frowned then a smile broke reappeared on her face as her skype began to ring. "Oh God, this is my bestfriend Santana." She clicked accept and immediately an attractive Latina took over her screen.

"Okay I want details! Did you and sexy Asian have sex? Was it good? Is the rumors true about the package sizing?" Santana immediately said then stopped when she noticed the shocking look on Mercedes face. Mercedes turned the laptop to show that Sam was sitting next to her. "Well damn…you work fast, Mercedes! Hi Sam…I've heard soooooo much about you from Mercedes." Sam smiled and waved at her and then looked at Mercedes as she looked away.

"Really? What did she say?"

"Oh my God! Nothing I only told her you were a teacher at Jayden's school."

"Lies! Lies! Lies!" Santana screamed over and over till Mercedes shut the laptop and then looked over at Sam and shook her head.

"She likes to start drama." She moved the laptop over and got up to grab the remote. "I'll just call her later." She flip through the channels then stopped at a music video and stared. Sam looked and noticed what she was staring at and smiled.

"That's you!" he inched closer to the screen and then looked back at her as she nodded with a frown on her face. "I've never known anyone who dance on a music video before." He smiled as he watched her dance and then turned to her. "Can you teach me to dance like this?"

"Say what now?" she asked looking at him as if he were crazy. He smiled and moved the coffee table out of the way and then extended his hand to her.

"I'm a quick learner." He lied. She looked at his hand and giggled before throwing the remote down and taking his hand. She walked over to put music on then turned to him and smiled.

"Um…okay I will show you some simple 8 steps and we'll take it from there."

"I'm ready." He lied again. She did the first few steps to the music then paused it to show him the steps. Sam tried to do the steps the way she showed him but then just fell into his infamous bodyroll. "Look when in doubt body roll out." he said causing her to laugh.

"No No No….stop…you're doing it wrong…oh my God, Sam!" she laughed so hard she doubled over. He twirled around and then landed on his tiptoes before grabbing his crotch. "Okay Michael!"

"It's Jackson…Mr. Jackson if you're nasty." He said impersonating Janet. Mercedes doubled over again laughing before walking over to him and standing behind him. She took his hand and while standing behind him she showed him how to body roll. He was loving her being this close to him but he wanted to be behind her instead. He turned around and pulled her close till they were close enough to feel each other's heart racing.

"What are you guys doing?" Jayden asked. Sam turned and noticed that the kids were staring at them from the stairs. Mercedes moved away from him and grabbed her laptop.

"Nothing. Just trying to teach him how to dance. I'll be in my room working." She replied before walking past them and up the stairs. Sam sighed and looked at the boys, one of these days he was going to put some bells on those kids.
