Here I am there you are. Sorry it's been 2 months since I've updated. Everything has been crazy lately and a lot has happened. I mean a lot and it's stressful living my life, but that's neither here nor there. So I hoped I did okay and also criticism is always welcomed. Enjoy my loves.
Mercedes POV
"Well what would you like to know?" I asked lacing my fingers together setting them on the table.
"For starters how are you feeling?" Mason asked with sympathy in his tone. I looked down and place my hands in my lap.
"I'm fine. How else would I be feeling?" I asked allowing myself to look him straight in the eye. He tilts his head to the side giving me a yeah right look and sighs. Seriously he knows about this too. I sink back into the booth. "Oh you meant with the whole Sam thing. I...I guess I will be okay." My fingers started sliding on the edge of the table.
"From the looks of it I don't think you will be." I look up getting ready to protest. He raises his hands up in defense. "Let me finish. I don't think you will be at the moment or at least for a little while you know. Trust me I've been there and I'm still trying to heal from it even though it's been a year and half since my ex and I broke up. She may not have physically cheated on me, but she did emotionally. It hurts like hell, because you put all your love and trust in a person and you end up getting burnt by them. When you love a person so much it's hard to let them go no matter how hard you try you just... can't do it." He rushed out and said. I look at him for a moment and it looked as if his eye's we're watery. It hurts me to see a guy cry. I place my hand on top of his and gave it a squeeze.
"Hey I'm sorry you had to go through that. And yeah you're right it is hard to let someone go." I sigh placing my hand on the table. "But you have to try right?" I asked sympathizing with him. Mason nods his head giving a small smile.
"Yeah." He whispered. I got a little curious as to why someone would cheat on him.
"Sorry I tend go off topic-
"No need to apologize it tends to happen. So Mr. Robinson let's not talk about that. How about we play 1-2-3 go?" I ask waggling my eyebrows causing him to choke on his coffee.
"As longs you don't do that again." He laughed out. "So how do you play this 1-2-3 go?" he asked.
"We ask a question and then we count to 3 and give our answer. It's just another way of playing twenty-one questions. You think you can do it? I ask.
"I'm pretty sure I can."
"Okay birthday? 1-2-3 go."
"August 21st." What no way.
"The 16th of August." We almost said at the same time.
"Wow that's cool." Mason said relaxing a bit. "But I don't think this game is going to turn out to well." Mason said giving a slight laugh.
"Your right; Kind of set myself up for that one didn't I? Have you lived in Lima your whole life?" I asked
"No I moved here from New York when I was about you?"
"Born and raised." I said proudly. "Wait did you transfer to McKinley this past year?" I asked curiously.
"No this is my second year." I've never really seen him around. "What?" he ask sensing my confusion.
"I've never seen you around, but I guess I just don't know everybody."
"No one really notices me-
"Pl-ease." I said dragging it out. "Look at you; you're like an Adonis." He chuckles and I see that he has two dimples that I never really notice until now.
"That is not what I meant. What I meant was I'm more quieter and not really outspoken like the rest of the football team. I'm not really social; my grade point average is slightly above a 4.0 and I've literally had 1 girlfriend. So you don't see girls lined up to get with me."
"Maybe it's an invisible line." I joked trying to lighten the mood. Mason joins in slightly after. We talked so more getting to know one another better. He and I were having a good time until Mason mentioned he had curfew that he didn't want to break. I turned my phone back on to see that it actually was really late it was past midnight. Not to mention missed calls from Kurt. He offered to take me home and I accepted. He pulls into my driveway and the both of us gets out of the car stopping at the bottom of steps. It was dark with an exception of my porch light that shined just a tad bit.
"Thank you for a goodnight." I said breaking the silence.
"Yeah no problem." Mason said stuffing his hands in his pocket. Me being me I reach out and hugged him he returns the gesture and for a minute it felt like Sam, but I knew it wasn't. We pull away slowly looking at one another for a moment before we timidly started leaning towards each other. Closing the gap we pecked each other's lips for a split second before jumping apart.
"I am so sorry. I...I...I don't know what came over me. I'm not even over my ex." He rambled. I felt the same way.
"I don't either. It was just the heat of the moment." I spoke casually. He nods.
"Yeah as much I want to be free, I can't. Ra- I mean Laura means everything to me. I should go; goodnight Mercedes." He rushed out and walks back to his car driving away moments later. Hmm I thought as I enter my house. Just before I was about to close the door it pushes open. Then in walks Kurt.
"You can't just walk off and not say where you were going. There are a lot of people who are looking for you. I was so worried that you could have done something to yourself. Come on Meme you can't be reckless like that." He said pacing the floor. I shake my head not wanting to get into this right now. Walking up to Kurt I hug him melting into his embrace. Letting go I lean back kissing his cheek gently.
"Can we talk about this in the morning? I asked grabbing his hand. He nods his head.
"Just… don't ever do that again." Kurt spoke with a stern tone.
Okay I ended it there sorry you guys it's not a lot. Hopefully I can do better the next time. I just didn't want to leave you guys hanging. So sorry it's not what you were expecting. I've also decided to give Mercedes and Mason a different kind of relationship so expect a different outcome. This story is called Broken Love for a reason so bear with me. Until next time folks!
