Out in the hallway they looked at each other, none of them could believe that they had just left glee club. Mercedes smiled at all of them quickly.
"You guys didn't have to leave with me." Kurt shook his head slowly still trying to believe they had walked out but not regretting it.
"Mercedes, we did it because you're right." Santana nodded agreeing with Kurt.
"Yeah, I don't feel bad. Schuester needs to get it together. Brits and I got your back." Mercedes heart swelled at show of support.
"Thanks. We'll see you tomorrow."
"OK, bye." Brittany and Santana headed towards the gym while Kurt, Finn and Mercedes headed toward the parking lot.
"Finn, don't you have practice today?"
"No, coach has a meeting. I have tutoring with Tina later tonight though."
"So, I have you to myself all afternoon?"
"If you want me." Kurt interrupted before the couple split into a conversation not suitable for one brother to hear about another.
"Before you two get too cozy, Finn give me your keys. I'm going to visit Blaine. You ride with Mercy. See you at home." Keys in hand Kurt practically skipped across the parking lot. Finn followed Mercedes to her car. When they were in her car leaving school Finn broke their silence.
"Where are we going?"
"My house."
"Oh. Are your parents home?"
"My dad's at a conference and my mom won't be home until later."
"Cool." He couldn't say anything else. The road to her house was silent but not awkward with the radio playing in the background. Mercedes parked in the garage and led Finn inside.
"Are you hungry? We have some spaghetti left over from last night."
"Um, yeah that would be great."
"OK, take our backpacks to the dining room." Mercedes headed to the kitchen followed by Finn a few moments later. Mercedes placed a bowl on the table before Finn and he smiled and started eating. Mercedes figured they had to talk about what happened and what was going to happen next for New Directions.
"What do you think is going to happen with Glee?"
"I don't know. At least Mr. Schue realizes we're serious."
"Yeah, but if you want to go back, it's OK."
"Why would I go back? Mercedes, you were right! A lead is not more important to me than you!" Mercedes knew that he supported her fully but she just needed to here it.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome. Puck text me after we left. He said to tell you he has your back. And he stayed to eavesdrop on Rachel and Schue. He said he'd meet us tomorrow and let us know what happened after we left."
"That's sweet, in a Puck kind of way. I don't know how short of a new director anything will change."
"I don't know. Want to watch a movie?"
"Sure." After washed their bowls she found Finn standing in front of the DVDs trying to pick one. Mercedes waited on the couch for Finn to join her. When he finally joined her she got cozy next to him. Finn had picked some action movie that Mercedes didn't know the name of. He was immediately immersed in the movie. Mercedes was immediately bored. She started to talk to Finn about the movie but got easily tired of explaining it to her and said it would be best to 'hold all questions until the end'. Mercedes began to run her fingers through Finn's hair. She kissed the underside of his jaw. When she kissed his neck he looked down at her, she smiled up at him innocently. Finn pulled her closer to him. Mercedes decided to kick it up a notch. She climbed into Finn's lap straddling him. She kissed him all over his face ignoring his lips. She kissed and nipped at his neck. Finn tried to concentrate on the movie, he really did, but pretty soon he just wanted Mercedes to kiss him. She leaned in like she was finally going to kiss him but at the last minute she kissed the corner of his mouth. Then she giggled and buried her face in his neck. Finn chuckled lightly and pulled her back, he framed her face in his hands and kissed her passionately. Finn trailed kisses down the column of her throat and across her bared shoulder. She whimpered when he ran his tongue along her neck. He peppered her with kisses before settling the area right above her collarbone.
"Finn, don't leave a mark."
"Sorry baby, too late. I want everyone to know you're mine."
"I should be mad but I'm not."
"Stop talking." Before Mercedes could say another word Finn was kissing her again. Finn pulled Mercedes shirt over head and tossed it to the side. Next he removed her cami and it joined her t-shirt on the floor. Mercedes pulled Finn's shirt up and over his head. She pulled Finn closer and the places where their skin touched lit them on fire. He nuzzled her neck again.
"You want to take this upstairs?"
"Yeah, I don't want to be down here like this when my mother gets home." Mercedes and Finn gathered their discarded clothing and went to Mercedes bedroom. Finn sat down on her bed and pulled Mercedes into his lap. He kissed her gently, she ran her fingers through the hair at the back of his neck. Finn laid back on the bed taking Mercedes with him. His hand gripped her waist tightly as she settled onto his hardening erection. They were separated by several layers of clothing but they could both feel the intensity of the moment. Finn flipped her over on her back gathering both of her hands above her head with one hand. The other hand he used to place her leg around his waist. He dipped his head and nibbled on her collarbone while he thrust gently against her denim clad core. Her breath hitched in her throat and she locked her ankles around Finn's waist arching her back drawing him closer. Finn didn't need any further prodding. He went after their looming climax with ardor. Mercedes whimpers of pleasure goaded Finn to give her exactly what she, what they both needed. He could feel himself getting closer and closer but he refused to leave her behind. He released her hands and grabbed her headboard and with three hard thrust they tumbled into bliss. Finn collapsed next to her on the bed spent. Mercedes cuddled into Finn's side and drifted off to sleep. The couple remained asleep until Mercedes phone woke them.
"Hello."
"Hi, Tina."
"Are you OK?"
"Yeah, why?"
"After what happened in class today, I was checking on you."
"Thanks. I'm fine, just fed up. I didn't mean to incite a rebellion. I'm tired of taking a backseat to Berry."
"Are you mad at me?"
"Why would I be mad at you?"
"Because I didn't leave with you. I don't want you to think that I disagree with you. I think you are completely right. I was shocked."
"Tina, it's OK. Don't worry about it. Hopefully we won't be gone long."
"I hope you're back soon, it's a different feel without you guys."
"It depends on Mr. Schue."
"Right. Tell Finn I'll see him later."
"OK, bye."
"Bye." Mercedes hung up the phone and looked at Finn. He smiled a lazy smile and crooked his finger at her. She joined him again and he wrapped his arms around her.
"That was Tina. She was calling to check on me."
"That was sweet."
"She thought I might be mad."
"Mad, why?"
"Because she didn't leave. She thought I might think she agreed with Berry."
"Oh, she doesn't right?"
"No, she is tired just like the rest of us, but the ball is in Mr. Schue's court. She also reminded me to send you to tutoring."
"Yeah, I've gotta get home. I have to shower and get Kurt's car so I can be at Tina's house on time."
"OK. I'll be ready as soon I take a shower, alone Finn, I see that look in your eyes!" Mercedes dropped Finn off at home and headed to the Lima Bean where Blaine and Kurt were having coffee.
"Diva, come join us."
"Hi, guys."
"Hi, Mercedes. Kurt told me all the exciting glee club news. Good for you!"
"Thanks, Blaine. I just hope Mr. Schue does the right thing."
"He will if he wants to win. Actually if he even wants to compete, with you guys gone New Directions doesn't have the required number of competitors. He really doesn't have a choice."
"I hope you're right."
"Don't worry. We'll see where we are tomorrow." Mercedes nodded trying to be positive but not counting on Mr. Schue to do the right thing. He hadn't done the right thing for the past two years why would he start now.
