A/N: This was inspired by Chord Overstreet's tweet about the fancy. com. I wrote it up in like 20 minutes so forgive any errors. I posted it on my tumblr, then I realized that some people probably aren't on tumblr and decided to make it available here, too. It is the Little Wonders universe, after all. Enjoy! :)

Mercedes quickly ran through her list of errands for the day as she wrapped a fluffy towel around her body and prepared to step into the bedroom. Her shower had been the rejuvenating kind—she kind of wished she could just sink into her mattress and go back to sleep, but the work of a mother, wife, and world-renowned diva was never done.

She opened the bathroom door and was about to step into the room when she saw a hooded figure running into the room. The piercing scream she let out stopped him dead in his tracks, and she kept screaming as she picked up everything within reach to throw at him.

The intruder dodged and weaved the flying items—shoes, pillows, magazines. He was trying to say something to her but, Mercedes wasn't about to stop her actions to listen.

Her eyes widened as Cameron and Lilliana showed up at the door. Her first instinct was always to protect them.

"Run! Call the police! I'll be fine! Go ahead! Run!" Mercedes called to them, still picking up more things to throw—lotions, combs, purses.

She was frustrated as her kids continued to stand there and—were they laughing?

"I said RUN! GO!" Mercedes called to them again.

The intruder moved closer to her and Mercedes prepared, this was it. It didn't seem like he had a gun. He'd have probably used it already, right? He was tall, but she could take him.

He was about Sam's height, Sam's build, he was even wearing the same jeans and shoes Sam had been this morning…

Mercedes stopped, finally quieting her screams, and cocked her head to the side, a picture frame in her hand poised to be thrown.

"Sam?" she asked in disbelief.

Sam pulled the hoodie off his head and blew out a relieved breath that the items had finally stopped flying at his head.

"Samuel Evans!" Mercedes asked, ignoring her two children bent over in the doorway who were crying under the weight of their laughter. "Boy! What the hell were you wearing on your head?"

"It's a Knight's Armor hoodie, 'Cede," Sam said offering her a small sheepish smile. "I was on this cool site a couple of weeks ago and they have all this stuff." The excitement creeped into his voice as he spoke. "I was coming in here to show you, and then you started throwing stuff."

"You scared me half to death! I thought someone broke in here!" Mercedes said, still feeling the effects of her scare. She pulled her towel tighter and tried to get her breathing in order.

He only stared back at her, flashing her another sheepish smile. "Sorry," he said wincing. "I didn't think about what it would look like. I just wanted you to see it."

Despite herself, Mercedes shook her head and laughed at him as she headed into her closet to get dressed. She could hear her kids ribbing Sam and reliving the events of the last few minutes as they kept laughing.

"Mom almost killed you," she heard Lilliana say through her giggles.

"She was sizing you up. You were gonna get it," she heard Cameron say. Sam laughed right along with them.

"Let's go look at the other stuff we got," he told them, but before he could step foot outside the room, Mercedes poked her head back in.

"Hey, no! Get back in here! You're gonna help me clean up this room," Mercedes said. The kids laughed harder but, took off down the hall so they wouldn't get roped into it.

"You don't get to complain," Mercedes told him as he pouted. "If you hadn't stormed in here like some crazed hooded robber, I wouldn't have had to throw anything."

Sam conceded her point with a nod and went to work, but not before pulling his hoodie back onto his face and asking, "But admit it. It's cool, right?"

Mercedes only rolled her eyes and went back to getting dressed.

"Right?" she heard him ask again. "'Cede? Right?"

I went on the website, saw the Knight's Armor hoodie and was convinced Chord owned it. Then I got to thinking about Sam owning it and this happened. Hope you enjoyed! Leave me a review if you did! Love to read them. They make my day! :)
