Hi guys!
SORRY SORRY FOR THE REALLY LATE UPDATE! I'll try to be on time!
I just saw that I was added on this community/Best-of-Samcedes/98645/ "Best Of SamCedes FanFic" so I'm really happy and surprised, thank you!
Thank you again for the reviews, I love it: D I just changed my summary: I added that this story is a big mix of Angst/Fluff, not only Fluff! So if you can't handle the angst, that's not a story for you. I just wanted to be clear on that. J
Here is chapter 11! Lisa, Caroline… it's all ending here! You'll see how. ;)
Enjoy it! x
- Thank you guys, I had a blast during these 3 days with you here. Thank you for your support, and love, you're all amazing. I love you all! Till next time! She said, before leaving the stage.
The crowd yelled, begging her to stay. When she got off the stage, all of her staff congratulated her.
- We all need to go celebrate our last night in London before taking the plane to Paris! I reserved in a night club! Exclaimed Haley. But, before, someone's waiting for you in your private room. She smiled
- Who? Don't tell me it's a sponsor or something, I really don't…
- No, no. Just go! You'll see she said, before rejoining the others member of the staff.
Mercedes raised her eyebrow and opened the door of the room. Her husband was there, sitting on a stool, a guitar in his hands. She was about to say something but he began to sing.
Still feels like our first night together
Feels like the first kiss
It's gettin' better baby
No one can better this
Still holdin' on, you're still the one
First time our eyes met - same feelin' I get
Only feels much stronger - wanna love you longer
You still turn the fire on...
So if you're feelin' lonely don't - you're the only one I ever want
I only wanna make it good - so if I love you a little more than I should
He got up, and came closer to her.
Please forgive me - I know not what I do
Please forgive me - I can't stop lovin' you
Don't deny me - this pain I'm going through
Please forgive me - if I need you like I do
Please believe me - every word I say is true
Please forgive me - I can't stop lovin' you
Mercedes closed her eyes and turned. She wanted to forgive him, she wanted so badly, but she couldn't. Sam stayed behind her, still singing.
Still feels like our best times are together
Feels like the first touch - still gettin' closer baby
Can't get close enough
Still holdin' on - still number one
I remember the smell of your skin - I remember everything
I remember all your moves - I remember you yeah
I remember the nights - you know I still do
So if you're feelin' lonely don't - you're the only one I ever want
I only wanna make it good - so if I love you a little more than I should
Please forgive me - I know not what I do
Please forgive me - I can't stop lovin' you
Don't deny me this pain I'm going through
Please forgive me - if I need ya like I do
Oh believe me - every word I say is true
Please forgive me - I can't stop lovin' you
Mercedes began to shake, and cry. She was remembering every memory they had together. The first time they met, their first date, their first time, their wedding, the first time they saw Alicia… Everything came at once. Their love was so strong… Could she really give up on that?
One thing I'm sure of - is the way we make love
And one thing I depend on - is for us to stay strong
With every word and every breath I'm prayin'
That's why I'm sayin'
She opened her eyes, turned and looked at him, tears streaming down her face. Sam smiled at her.
Please forgive me - I know not what I do
Please forgive me - I can't stop lovin' you
Don't deny me this pain I'm going through
Please forgive me - if I need you like I do
Babe believe me - every word I say is true
Please forgive me - if I can't stop lovin' you
Never leave me - I don't know what I'd do
Please forgive me - I can't stop lovin' you
Can't stop lovin' you
The song ended, Mercedes wiped her eyes.
- What are you doing here? You were supposed to come Friday with…
- I know he cut her, but I couldn't wait. Mercy, we need to talk…
- I-I can't right now, Sam. I have to…
- I'm not the father of Caroline's baby.
Mercedes eyes widened.
- W-what?
- She lied. Everything was a lie.
They sat on the couch, and Sam explained everything to her. The drinks, Lisa, how Santana helped… everything. At the end, Mercedes was so relieved, but confused. It was a lot to take.
- So… You're telling me that Lisa and Caroline made this plan because Caroline wanted to be with you and they wanted to separate us? She asked, shocked.
- Yeah. I-I know it might be hard to believe cause it's pretty crazy, but it's the truth. I-If Santana wasn't there, I would have never knew.
Mercedes sighed.
- S-So, I-It's not true, you didn't… You didn't sleep with her, you didn't…
- No I didn't, he repeated, taking her hand. I didn't sleep with her, and she's pregnant of another guy.
She closed her eyes, and nodded, sobbing. Sam took her in his arms. She was so happy that everything was a lie, and that her husband was the same guy she always knew. She missed him, she was incomplete without him. After weeks of cries and stress, she was finally feeling good in his arms, the truth being out.
But she was also pretty angry at Lisa and Caroline. She just couldn't understand. Those girls had no limit! She almost lost the love of her life because of them! They weren't safe anymore, with Lisa in the corner.
- W-we need to do something about Lisa, this can't continue…
- I know, I know… She's insane. But I'll take care of that later, right now, I want to apologize. Mercedes lifted her head from his shoulder. I-I'm so sorry Mercy. Even though nothing really happened, I still want to apologize. I shouldn't have drunk that much, I was… irresponsible. It will not happen again, you can be sure of that. I-I almost lost you, and those weeks were the hardest of my life. I'm so sorry honey, I really am. He said, touching her hand.
Mercedes took his hand.
- I know you are. And I'm sorry too, I should've known that you would never cheat on me, it's just that everything was against you, with the paternity test and…
- Hey, don't worry about that. I thought it was true too. We've been trapped.
Mercedes just nodded and rested her head on his shoulder.
- I can't believe people would do something like this. They almost broke our marriage, our family! I just… What kind of people does that?
- I know, I'm going to talk to Lisa…
- You know it's not going to change a thing, Sam. I think we should just… move out. Move in L.A, Alicia will change school, and…
- What? No, no, no! We're not going anywhere, we're staying in NYC. I'll find a solution for Lisa, don't worry. I'll take care of it. You, just concentrate on your Tour okay. Nothing else.
She sighed, and hugged him tightly.
- I missed you. I'm happy that you're here.
- I just wanted to make sure you know the truth and that we're going to be okay… Are we… are we going to be okay? Will you ever forgive me…? he asked unsure.
Mercedes kissed him. It was a long, passionate kiss.
- I love you she said. I always will. I didn't forget our promises; I'll never give up on us. It might need some time, but… we're going to be okay.
Sam sighed, relieved.
- Okay. I love you.
They kissed, and Mercedes didn't go to the party. She went at her hotel with Sam, and they spent the night together.
The next day, Sam was back in NYC and Mercedes on a plane to Paris. She smiled the whole time, remembering the night she spent with her husband. They'll be okay. She was serein now.
As for Sam, as soon as he arrived to NYC, he went to Lisa's house, but no one was there. The house was empty.
- Excuse me? Are you here for the house? Asked an old woman in suit.
- Hmm no, I'm here to see Lisa. Lisa Crawford. She lives here.
- Well not anymore. I work for the New Deal Agency, and this house is for sale. Clients are coming.
Sam's frowned.
- Okay… Thanks…
Meanwhile…
Puck was watching TV with his children and wife. His phone buzzed. It was Sam. " Bro – Dude it's so weird… She's not here anymore, she moved out! I didn't even get the chance to yell at her… that's sad. But whatever, she's finally out of our lives! Wonder why she decided to go so suddenly though. "
Puck just smiled. He replied " – That's so cool bro! We're going to live peacefully again. And seriously, don't even worry about her; I'm sure she's fine. Let's just move on!"
- You're never going to tell him the truth, aren't you? Asked Lauren, looking at his phone.
He smiled, remembering what happened while Sam was in London.
Flash Back
Puck went at Lisa's house, after hearing the truth from his wife about the whole "Sam-Caroline-Lisa" story. She opened the door.
- Ah, Puck! What are you doing he…
- Just take this. He said, handing her an envelope. Take this; go away and never come back here. I know you just lost your job, and the opportunities aren't showing up lately for you so you can't say you don't need money. Here's 100 000 dollars. Take the money, and get the hell out of NYC. Go in Hawaii or Russia, or I don't care. But just... Leave my bro alone. Leave all of us alone okay. I never want to see you around here again. It's better for you to run anyway, because when Sam comes back, he'll ruin your entire career. So, go now. Pack your stuff, sell your house and go away.
He threw her the envelope, knowing that she'll take it, and quit her house.
End of the Flash back.
Puck smiled.
- Nope. He doesn't need to know. She's never coming back, and that's what matters.
A week later, Friday night, Alicia and Sam went to the airport, to take a plane to Paris, and surprisingly, they weren't alone. Kurt, Blaine and Leo came too, Kurt wanted to see his best friend perform, they were on break at Montgomery and Leo wanted to go to Paris, so they came along. They arrived in France Saturday around 6pm. As Blaine, Kurt and Sam were famous, especially in France, a car was waiting for them at the airport. When they got out, they were encircled by a lot of teenagers screaming their name, crying.
- KURT HUMMEL ANDERSON YOU'RE SO AWESOME!
- BLAINE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!
- SAM! I WANT TO MARRY YOUR DAUGHTER! Said a teenage boy.
Sam laughed at that one. The body guards led Leo and Alicia in the car, while Blaine, Kurt and Sam decided to give some autographs.
- Wow, even though we're used to it, this is crazy. They were screaming our names! Said Leo, watching the fans from the car.
Alicia sighed.
- Yeah… I'm not really comfortable with all of this. Admitted Alicia.
- Yeah, me neither. I'm glad we have each other. You understand what I'm talking about you know. He said, smiling at her.
She rested her head on his shoulder.
- Yeah, totally. We'll always have each other.
She was so happy to have a friend like him. He was his best friend, practically family cause their parents were like brothers and sisters, and he understood. He understood everything. The pressure of having two famous parents, the insecurities… she was glad to have him. She kissed his cheek; something Sam didn't miss when he got in the car with Blaine and Kurt.
- So, are you two a thing or what? He couldn't help but ask.
The two blushed deeply.
- Dad! Yelled Alicia embarrassed.
Blaine and Kurt laughed.
- Sam, leave them alone. It's cute! Said Kurt, cooing at them.
The three adult laughed during the whole ride, while the two pre-teenagers were awfully embarrassed. They arrived at Fontaine Bleau, the prestige hotel of Paris. Again, it was crazy, the Fan were everywhere. They entered in the hotel, and the staff put their suitcases in their room, while Blaine, Kurt, Sam and their children went in the restaurant of the hotel. They were meeting Mercedes there.
- Mom! Yelled Alicia, running in her mother's arms.
- My baby! I missed you so much! Mercedes said, hugging her tightly.
Then she greeted Kurt, Blaine and her godson, and finally, her husband. She kissed him.
- I missed you… He said, kissing her again and again.
Mercedes smiled and pulled off.
- You saw me last week.
- Still…
She rolled her eyes and took his hand. The Evans and Hummel- Anderson had a dinner together, and then they separated, as they wanted to spend some time just in family. Kurt, Blaine and Leo went to see the Tour Eiffel as it was beautiful in the night, while Sam, Mercedes and Alicia went to the famous creator Jean Paul Gautier's fashion event. Sam was bored, while Mercedes and her daughter were in awe in front of the collections.
The next day, in the night, Mercedes performed at Bercy. Kurt, Blaine, Leo, Alicia and Sam were enjoying the concert in their VIP place. Alicia was so proud of her mother, she was beautiful on stage.
- Now, this song is for my family who's here tonight… (The crowd yelled, she smiled looking at them)You obviously already know them; my best friend Kurt, his husband Blaine, my godson Leo… and my two favorite people in the world; my daughter Alicia and my dear husband Sam.
People yelled their name, happy that they were here. Alicia smiled widely and hugged his father.
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yes, my loves
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I needed the shelter of someone's arms
And there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs
And there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotions
I want to stop and thank you guys
I want to stop and thank you guys
She looked at them, and smiled widely. She meant every word. They all were a blessing in her life.
Hey now how sweet it is to be loved by you
Oh, my loves,
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yes, it is
Alicia looked at her father, tears in her eyes. She hugged her tightly and kissed her hair. Yeah, the song was beautiful.
Close my eyes at night
And wonder what would I be without you in my life
Everything was just a bore
All the things I did seems I've done them before
But you brightened up all my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop and thank you guys
I want to stop and thank you my dear loves
Blaine was holding a crying Kurt. Mercedes meant so much to him, she was the best friend he ever had, his rock, his sister.
You were better to me than I've been to myself
For me there's you guys and nobody else
I want to stop and thank you guys
Oh, how sweet it is to be loved by you
Well, it's like sugar for my soul
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Oh, yes, it is my loves.
At the end, most of the fans were crying. Everyone yelled, and clapped, there was a standing ovation.
- Thank you. I love you guys. She said, looking at her family, emotional.
Kurt and Alicia laughed looking at each other as they were both crying. Leo and Blaine were yelling and clapping hard, while Sam mouthed " I love you" to Mercedes, who winked at him.
After this trip to London, the months passed pretty quickly and soon enough, Mercedes was back from her tour, and we were in February. The 14th, it was Valentine's Day. The couple had plans; well Mercedes didn't know what they were going to do as Sam said that it was a "surprise". She had a big announcement to tell him, but she'll wait till the dinner. They called Katherine Evans and Mary Jones, their mother, to watch Alicia instead of the nanny so the grandmothers can have some time with their granddaughter. At 7 pm , they were here.
- Grandma Mary, Grandma Kathy! Yelled Alicia, running in their arms.
- Our beautiful granddaughter! Look at you! You're all growing up! Exclaimed Katherine.
Mary hugged Sam and Mercedes.
- How are you guys?
- We're fine said Mercedes taking Sam's hand. It's been some… stressful months, but we're fine. Thank you guys again for coming, but really if you had plans for Valentine's day with dad and John…
- Mercedes for the last time, it's fine! After so many years of marriage, it's really not that special, it's a day like others! We had our flowers this morning, that's enough. Answered Mary, laughing.
- Agree! Now let's talk about you guys, how was the tour sweetie? Asked Katherine.
- Amazing! Love the fans. But reaaally tiring too!
They laughed.
- I bet! You're both gorgeous tonight! Where are you going?
- Well, I have no idea. You know how Sam loves doing surprises so…
- Hey! He said, smacking her arms gently. You love it! Anyway we should get going if we don't want to be late.
- Have a good time! Said Alicia, as they both hugged her before they go.
Sam drove for 20 minutes before stopping the car. Mercedes looked outside. They were in front of Tiffany & Co. She frowned, and then understood.
- Aww Sam...
He got off the car and helped her getting out of the car. They linked arms and stood in front of the store.
- You remember?
- Of course. When we came with the New Direction for the regionals, we had our first date here in Tiffany's after we followed Kurt and Rachel. She said, tears in her eyes.
He laughed, and kissed her cheek.
- Yeah. I wanted to recreate our first date. We're not going to eat breakfast though. I took this place for the night, and called my friend David Burtka, a chief. He's going to make your favorite plate.
She was feeling too many emotions to even express it in words so she just kissed him passionately.
- I love you.
- Same here, baby. Ready?
- Always.
They entered in the place, and it was beautifully decorated, the theme was obviously love so there was hearts red and pinks everywhere, in the center was placed a big table for two with candles. "Valery" was playing in the back; it was the song that was played in their first date 19 years ago. They sat, and began to enjoy the night, eating, laughing, kissing, and remembering the memories, the good times. They ate de dessert, and then Sam stood up.
- Sam, what…
A new music played in the back. He took the micro he bring for tonight, and began to sing.
My love, there's only you in my life,
The only thing that's right.
Knowing the song, Mercedes stood up, took his hand and sang the next lines.
My first love, you're every breath that I take,
You're every step I make.
She looked lovingly at him, tears in her eyes. They sang the rest of the song together.
And I, I want to share, all my love with you,
No one else will do.
And your eyes, they tell me how much you care.
Oh yes, you will always be, my endless love.
Two hearts, two hearts that beat as one.
Our lives have just begun.
Forever, I'll hold you close in my arms,
I can't resist your charm.
My love, I'll be a fool, for you I'm sure,
You know I don't mind.
Cause you, you mean the world to me.
Oh, I know I've found in you, my endless love.
And love, I'll be that fool, for you, I'm sure.
You know I don't mind.
And yes, you'll be the only one.
Cause no one can deny,
This love I have its fine.
I'll give it all to you,
My love, my love, my endless love.
They kissed, it was a slow, full of love, kiss.
- I know the couple of months have been… complicated, but we got through this again, just like we got through my disease, and Lisa. Our love got us through all of this. I love you, Mercedes Jones. I loved you for 19 years, and I'll love you for 19 more.
Mercedes gave him a teary smile.
- I love you. Our family will get through anything as long as we stay together. You, me, Alicia and the little one that's there will always be…
- W-what? The "Little one"? Asked Sam, his voice shaking.
Mercedes shut her eyes.
- Damn… That's not how I wanted to announce it! She laughed. She squeezed his hands. Yes, baby, the little one. I'm pregnant.
The next second, Sam was carrying her, spinning her around. He yelled " yes!" and Mercedes laughed.
- Get me down immediately Mr. Evans!
He put her down, and showed her with kisses.
- We're going to be parents again! This is amazing! I love you, I love you so much he exclaimed kissing her face.
- I love you, I'm excited too!
- But.. When did this happened? How did you know? How far are you?
- The night we made up when you came to see me in London…
- Oh yeah, that night... he said winking at her
She laughed.
- Well, after that, I did a test two weeks ago. It said that I'm 4 weeks pregnant. I was afraid to lose the baby because of the tour as I'm dancing all the time, so for the last days we changed the choreography and I had a doctor with me all the time. Then I came home, and I wanted to tell you, but I thought it was best to wait till our celebration of Valentine's Day. And I was right, this moment is perfect. But I'm sorry if I didn't tell you sooner, I really wanted it to be special…
He kissed her to tell her that he wasn't upset.
- I don't care. I just can't wait to meet our little boy.
- Huh? Who told you it's going to be a boy?
- I just have a feeling. He winked at her.
She rolled her eyes, he took her in his arms, and they began to dance slowly.
- I can't wait to tell Alicia.
- She'll be thrilled. Let's go home and tell her!
- Can we stay like this a little longer?
- Of course. As long as you want.
Happy days, were here, again.
Voila! Hope you liked it! So, Boy or Girl? ;)
Tell me everything in reviews!
Love you guys
Bibi.
