Chapter 12

Thanks for the reviews, follows and favs :-)

After the night at Brandon's Mercedes thought her and Sam were good, so she thought, but they weren't it was always awkward between them they would attempt to talk but just end up talking over each other fumbling over their words, Sam made a extra room in the condo into a office and spent most of his time in there, while Mercedes stayed locked up in the room, she would cook and they would eat in silence, they would attempt to go out and buy gifts for each other but end up running in to each other, talking at the same time fumbling over their words once again

"Umm... I b-brought you-you a gift, ummm here"
It would end in them throwing the bags at each other and hurriedly walking away

The atmosphere was awkward as hell

Sam was sitting in the office one day debating on if he should approach Mercedes about something he thought back to a talk he had with Brandon after him and Mercedes night at his home

"So Sammy how did it go with your lady last night? Did you put it on her?"

"It went great and no I didn't put it on her"

"Why not?"

"Wasn't in the mood"

"Wow, speaking of mood, what was up with you and shorty last night, last time I was around you guys, you were all over each other but last night was different"

Sam gave in and told Brandon everything from the fight with Santana, to Santana and Mercedes knowing each other, to everything Mercedes told him about herself and him telling her about his life Brandon was speechless for the first time ever

"Dude are you just going to sit there with your mouth open? Or are you going to say something?"

"I don't know what to say"

"Really? for the first time no filter Brandon is speechless, I guess you hate Mercedes now too huh?"

"No,no,no, I like Mercedes my opinion of her haven't changed but dude I told you something was up with her,I'm not going to judge her people make mistakes I actually feel for her because bro she had it rough but what I will tell you is, maybe you both should go get checked seriously or at least make her get check"

"Are you serious?"

"As hell dude, I know it's been in the back of your mind, if my girl told me her life was like that, I'm sorry but she would have to get checked out, she was basically a watered down escort dude"

Sam was quiet deep in thought after that

Sam sat back in his office chair tapping his foot thinking and replaying Brandon words over and over again in his head "damn you Brandon"
It was like Brandon to always bring something to his attention

He pushed back from his desk and stood up, he made his way up to the bedroom and watched Mercedes lay across the bed reading a book, he lightly tapped on the door and her head popped up from the book she smiled at him

"Hi"

"Ummm hi Cedes?"

"Yes?"

"Umm I think you should.. Well we should... Well I don't know me... Shit just forget it"

Mercedes gave him a weird look and he hurriedly walked away before she could say anything he ran down the stairs and she jumped out the bed following behind him

"What Sam?"

"It's ok Cedes forget it, forget I said anything"

"No Sam we haven't talked or been intimate in weeks, now you attempt to say something to me then say forget it? Say what you gotta say!"

"Fine! I think you should get checked"

"What?"

"I think..."

"No forget it Sam I heard what you said, I just really wanted to make sure I heard it correctly, so you want me to get checked huh?! Why because I'm a slut! That's why?!

"No Cedes I didn't mean it like that"

She turned and ran back up the stairs into the bedroom plopping on the bed in defeat and crying

"Shit"
He followed her into the bed room

"I get it Sam, you don't wanna touch me until you see that I'm clean! What man in their right mind would wanna be with me! I'm nothing,I'm the slut who father walked out on, I'm the slut who was sleeping with a guy for money at only 14, I'm the slut who friend who she had a sexual relationship with at one point was killed by her crazy ex along with her mother, I'm the slut who was known in high school as the girl who mother and friend was murdered and who didn't have friends because everyone thought she was trouble! I'm the slut who don't have a education pass 12th grade, I'm the slut who's rich from using guys for money! I'm the slut who's boyfriend don't want to touch her anymore because she's disgusting! I'm the slut who took you from your fiancé!"

"You didn't take me Cedes I left because I wasn't treated right there's a difference,if she was doing her job I wouldn't have left"

"But you were still with her! I'm nothing Sam, you're beautiful and smart you have a college education, what do you want with me! Santana might've been a evil bitch but at least she's beautiful and is going to have credentials behind her name in the future! I'm nothing but a ugly dumb slut who never amounted to nothing! What are you gonna tell people when they ask you how did we meet? Are you gonna tell them the truth?! Are you gonna say you saved me from being killed! And that you had to take me to your home to keep me safe and I slept with you that first night in you and your fiancé bed!"

He took her hands into his

"Hey stop it! Stop talking like that. You are something you're the most beautiful person I have ever met, you're smart, you're funny, you're lovable, and you can still be something you're 27 you might not think you're young but you are, you can go to school or do something you love, even If you don't go to school it's ok because I'm going to be here every step of the way I told you I got you, we're in this together, I'm sorry if I made you feel some type of way, I love you baby and I would never intentionally try to hurt you, I didn't mean for it to come out that way I want both of us to get checked together not just you by yourself I should've said that you know? But you know what forget it we don't have to get checked I shouldn't have listened to Brandon's stupid ass"

She laughed through her tears
"I should've known Brandon had something to do with this, I'm not mad I understand any man would feel the same way if they found out their girlfriend lived this certain lifestyle, just know that I always protected myself you might night believe that I've only been with 4 people 5 including you but it's the truth,we can get checked so you would know that we could trust each other ok?"

"Ok, and I'm sorry beautiful I've probably been with way more people then you I shouldn't have approached you like that"

"It's ok honey"

"I know this clinic that gives free testing we can test for everything if your comfortable"

"It's ok we can go today if you like"

"Ok baby"

They both got dressed and made their way to the clinic as they was walking up they heard their names being called it was Santana running up to them out of breath

Sam pushed Mercedes back he didn't want a repeat of what happened before

"Santana didn't I tell you to leave us alone what do you want?"

"I just wanna talk ok,what are you guys doing here? Cedes are you really pregnant?"

"It's none of your damn business!"

Sam gave Mercedes a look and she shut up

"Santana did you follow us?"

"Yes, I just wanna talk ok please I'm sorry Sam I'm sorry for what I did to you all you did was try to love me and I didn't appreciate that, I'm getting help I want to be a better person please forgive me, and Cedes I'm sorry I hurt you ok, I looked up to you I've always been this constricted person with a wall up and you were pretty with this bright smile and bubbly personality and I was jealous I admit I was so jealous and hateful towards you when you were nothing but a good friend I know I can't bring Puck or your mom back but all I can say is I'm sorry, I some what blame myself too because I could've kept my mouth close I didn't know he was capable of murder Cedes I swear, I thought he would do something as simple as embarrass you and break up with you, I did think that was what you deserved at first but I had no reason too, no one deserves that cedes and I'm sorry, this has been on my mind since it happened and that was one of the reasons why I was so unhappy because I was guilty and I prayed and prayed on it plenty of times but yet I still felt guilty and I still hated you Mercedes I kept asking myself why did I hate you? What have you ever done to me? How can I hate a person who had my best interest at heart, you and Sam, maybe I don't know what love is maybe all I know how to do is push away the people who love me! Just try to forgive me both of you I know it won't be soon but just consider it ok?"

Mercedes shook her head
"Santana I think you should leave, I might can forgive you I might not but for now just leave us alone you cause us too much hurt Santana, I'm happy you're getting the help you need but a simple apology is not going to make me change my opinion of you that quick I don't know about Sam, but right now I'm not buying it, bye Santana"

Santana dropped her head
"Sam"

Sam looked at her then to Cedes but stayed quiet, he didn't know what to say, and didn't want to risk saying something that could possibly piss Mercedes off and cause a scene between them so he dropped his head too

Santana dropped a tear and started walking away
"You have every right to feel that way Cedes,both of you do, I hope you find it in your hearts to forgive me"

She dragged her feet to her car, got in and sped off

Sam grabbed Mercedes hand and noticed she was crying
"Are you ok baby?"

"Yes,lets just get this over with"

They both got tested and patiently waited on their results Mercedes was nervous and kept moving around in her seat she knew she was clean but you know how the doctor goes, go into the situation thinking the worst,with a lot of what if's, what if I slipped up and didn't realize it, what if I'm dying and ignored the symptoms she kept shaking her leg until Sam took his large hand and placed it on her thigh stopping her from moving with a raised eyebrow

"You ok?"

"Yea Sam I'm just, well I'm fine"

"if you say so"

She had to get it together she didn't want Sam thinking she had something to hide so she took a deep breath ,sat up straight and forced herself to stay still, while Sam sat there super cool and calm

They finally was called to the back the doctor made them both sit and took a deep breath making Mercedes more nervous

"Why do nurses and Doctor's always do that? make you think they're going to tell you some horrible news"

"Well you're both clean, keep it that way"

"Of course Doc"

Sam stood up with a smile

They went to the desk to get their paperwork with proof on it that they were clean

Mercedes took her hip and bumped Sam with it as they were walking out
"See I told you, you had nothing to worry about"

"I know Cedes, let's go eat I'm starving"

They found a little restaurant and sat down to eat it was still slightly awkward

Mercedes reached over the table and grabbed Sam's hand
"Baby lets just stop all this awkwardness ok I know you're still kind of mad but that's not going to change anything, we've already put everything out on the table all we can do is try to work this out if you're willing too"

"Of course Cedes you're right I'm sorry, I do wanna work this out"

"Good"

After that day everything did get better no Santana, no drama just them Sam barely had to see his therapist, they were good Mercedes didn't know why saw continued to pay this lady for sessions when he really didn't need her Mercedes kept telling herself that she could be his therapist if she wanted too for free because his therapist sucked literally sucked him out of his money, Mercedes wanted to voice her opinion but she knew Sam would just shut her down so she kept her mouth closed, they were back being intimate but continued to use protection even though they were clean and Sam for some reason thought he was infertile, Mercedes wasn't on birth control but she didn't care if they used condoms or not

One day they slipped up and Mercedes thought Sam would be pissed but he surprised her with his reaction

They were taking a bath together, Sam was laid back relaxing with his eyes close on the verge of falling asleep and Mercedes was between his legs laid back on his chest with her eyes close as well, it was something about being in a steaming hot bath and feeling his member on her back that had her horny she wanted to jump his bones but didn't wanna interrupt his relaxation, so
She stayed quiet it was like he read her mind when he lazily reached a hand around her and started rubbing at her mound, he took two fingers and started rubbing her clit in circles she was so horny that she almost came as soon as he touched her she looked up at him and his eyes was still closed

"Baby?"

He answered her with a
"Hmmm"

He started rubbing a little harder but still gentle she lifted one leg out of the water over the edge of the huge bathtub still studying his face he continued to keep his eyes closed while biting his lip he took one finger then two and inserted them in her

"Fuck"
She started moaning and riding his fingers so hard that her bottom half lifted up out the water splashing water over the edge of the tub onto the floor he looked down at her and smiled finally opening his eyes and giving her the most sexy look ever
He whispered to her licking the shell of her ear

"You're so wet baby,is that all for me?"

"Oh fuck Sam yes,shiiitttt"

He removed his fingers quickly with a disappointed Mercedes she lowered her bottom half back into the water and sucked her teeth with a pout he smiled and took his fingers into his mouth licking them clean

"Hmmm, so good, let's get out this bath we can bath later"

He helped her out the bath and dried both of them off making Mercedes walk in front of him into the bedroom he smacked her behind and she giggled like a school girl

He wrapped his arms around her from behind and started sucking her neck she could feel his arousal on her behind and that made her more horny, he walked her to the bed with his mouth still connected to her neck leaving bruises somehow she flipped them over to the bed with her being in the dominant position

"Hmmm so you wanna be in control baby?"

"Yes, now scoot all the way back on the bed and lay flat"

"As you wish"

He did just what she said and laid back on the bed she did a sexy little dance then crawled onto the bed towards him he laughed and licked his lips gesturing for her to come all the way she crawled in to she was hovering over his erect member
He thought she was going to stop there until she gave him a devious smile and continued to crawl up his body until she was hovering over his mouth he licked his lips

"Wow so it's like that sexy?"

"Yes it's like that"

Before he could say anything else she lowered herself onto his mouth and moaned out loud he grabbed her cheeks digging his fingers into them and dived right in sucking her clit into his mouth

"Oh baby yeeesss"

She grabbed onto the headboard to steady herself riding and pushing herself deeper into his face he was sucking, licking,slurping eating her like she was his last meal and soon as she was on the brink of an orgasm she lifted up from his face

He looked disappointed
"Baby I wasn't done yet,why you take my delicious meal away?"

His face and mouth was glistening with her juices and his eyes were a darker green he looked so damn sexy

She giggled and lowered herself from his face and kissed him hard sucking and biting his lower lip, tasting her sweet and salty essence on his mouth

He stopped kissing her and looked at her
"Wow, you naughty girl"

"Only for you baby"

She kissed him again then lowered herself onto his member
"Oh Sam baby you feel so good, I love you"

"I love you too Cedes Shiiitttt"

Mercedes closed her eyes and started riding him with her nails digging into his muscular chest
She could feel Sam looking at her and opened her eyes to see him giving her a intense look she couldn't quite figure out why he was looking at her like that but it was sexy as hell he looked down between them watching her ride him watching himself slide in and out of her slickness he looked back up at her with that same intense look she looked down and realize what he was looking at, this was their first time not using protection she gasped and tried to jumped off of him

"Oh Sam I'm so sorry I know you wanted to continue to use protection I sorry I didn't say nothing baby"

He grabbed her hips and steadied her and started thrusting upward
"It's ok baby, I don't care, just ride me baby, this feels so good"

She started riding him then flipped over into a different position with her back facing him lowering herself back onto him

"Ohhhh I like that baby yeeeess"
He smacked her cheeks and grabbed her hips guiding her movements she started bouncing on him slowly

"Harder Cedes, harder baby"
She started bouncing harder making the bed squeak she flipped back around facing him and kissed him hard he flipped them over to where he was on top with their mouths still connected he took a leg and raised it over his shoulder making him deeper inside her, he started thrusting hard he could feel himself getting closer but needed Mercedes to reach her peak first

He started kissing and talking into her neck
"Come for me Cedes baby, come for me"

"Oh Sam, I'm bout to co- I'm bout to, I'm bout to! Sam!"

With ever word he thrusted harder
She reached her peak screaming his name and flooding him with her juices

She squeezed him tight and that brought on his orgasm
"Oh shitttt Cedes!
He bit into her neck hard letting out a deep groan spilling his seed deep inside her

That brought on another orgasm for Mercedes
"Oh Sam!"

When they were done they laid there breathing hard and looking into each other eyes Sam was still on top of her
"Wow, that was wow"

"Amazing"

"It sure was Cedes,I love you"

"I love you too Sam"

He rolled off of her and laid there staring at the ceiling,they both decided to take separated showers to avoid having sex again, Sam took
His first and asked Mercedes to take a nap with him after hers, she took a long shower when she got out he was already asleep, she crawled under the covers and laid on his chest drifting off, Sam woke her up talking on the phone whoever he was talking to, he wasn't expecting their call she laid there listening and pretending she was still asleep

""Yes? how did you-umm yes,ok... Yes I don't know, maybe, can I think on it? But why after so long? I don't know if I can, I'll think about it, until then don't call me again I will call you if I decide, if I don't well you know why bye"
He angrily slammed his iPhone down and Mercedes jump up playing it off like he woke her up

"Shit I'm sorry Cedes did I wake you?"

"Ummmm yes,what's going on?"

He put his hands over his face
"Sam what's the matter baby?"

He removed his hands and looked at her with a exhausted look
"You would never believe who that was"

"Who Sam?"

"Melissa"

"Omg, are you serious I mean how did she get your number? How did she know you were in LA after all these years really?"

"She said she searched me, and found a known artist and photographer in LA name Samuel Evans and she tried her luck and called me"

"So what did she say?"

"She wants me to come to Tennessee to see her I haven't been back to Tennessee since I left, I don't want to see her and I'm scared I will run into my dad, I don't even know if he's still alive or if he's still in Tennessee"

"When was the last time you actually saw your dad?"

"After I came to LA with my grandmother he visit every so often up until I was 14 then my grandmother and I just completely cut him off"

"So you haven't been in contact with your dad in 13 years? Wow maybe this would he a good thing Sam I know she left you behind when you needed her but that was 13 years ago we said we're going to help each other get better, maybe this could be a part of your healing process, I sucked it up and went back home after 13 years even though I had other motives but, maybe you could do the same"

"I'll think about it"

Hope this chapter was enjoyable :-)

So why did Melissa call Sam after all these years? The last time she saw him he was 9 years old

Will Sam go back to Tennessee and would it be a horrible experience or a good experience?"

"Will he see his dad?

And Mercedes got another secret that she totally blanked out of her mind, but talking to Sam about going to Tennessee will bring it back to her memory,hmmm what could she be hiding that happened in Tennessee?
And will she tell Sam this secret? Or keep it to herself

Next chapter coming soon :-)
