As I See It
Future Plans/West Side Story
Mercedes and Sam were sitting at their favorite spot in the park.
"Sam"
"Yeah"
"Have you thought about which college you're going to choose?"
"I've been thinking about it but I think I have narrowed it down to three."
"What are your choices?"
"I was thinking about University of Tennessee, Syracuse or UCLA."
"Are you only considering UCLA because you know that's where I want to go?"
"Yes and you know that."
"Sam I want you to go to a school that is best for you and your talents."
"And that is why I am considering these schools. All three has offered me a full scholarship and I can play football as well as major in Art and creative writing."
"Yeah UCLA does have a great arts program."
"I know babe I am taking all this very serious but know that your decision to what school you go to is a huge part of my decision. I want us to be together."
"That's what I want to boo. So we decide together agreed?"
"Agreed so are you ready for your audition tomorrow?" he asked.
"I am" she said "I think I picked a great song."
"Whatever you sing you will kill it I know it."
"I am glad you think so."
"I know you will baby, I believe in you" he said smiling "it is so your time to shine. Good things happen when you do like us beating the New Directions."
Just the mention of that made her smile because it showed everyone that ever doubted her that Mercedes Jones was an asset and was worthy to be out front. She was happy when Mike, Tina and Rory wanted to join the Trouble Tones and was shocked when Finn apologized to her for the way he treated her and asked if he could be a part as well.
"Thank you babe and I am just going to do my best and see what happens. So are you auditioning too?"
"I was going to audition for a small part so I can commit to the play as well as baseball."
"That's smart and after just getting over all the football games I went to now I have to gear up to go to all the baseball games too" she said smiling.
"Yup you do" he said "because you know I can't play without seeing your beautiful face in the stands."
"You know I will be there screaming the loudest for my number seven."
"Well I better get you home you got a big day tomorrow."
"Sam it's just an audition."
"Yes and I want you well rested and at your best."
"Ok fine I am a little tired since someone had to go for round three in his truck."
"Hey you were a willing participant in that."
"Yeah I was" she said smiling.
They got in Sam's truck and he drove her home. With a few more kisses she finally went in the house. Getting her things ready for the next day she showered and put on her pajamas. She heard her phone buzz and saw a text from Sam;
Made it home ~Sam I Am

Of course ~Sam I Am
Cool well I'll try to be ready when you get here this time ~M

Goodnight ~M
Goodnight ~Sam I Am
Mercedes was excited about today. She was ready for her audition and she was not going to let anybody distract her from her goal not even Rachel. After the incident after sectionals Mercedes hadn't talked to Rachel. She would not acknowledge her presence in the hallway or in class and she had plan on keeping it that way. Rachel on the other hand had a different plan. Mercedes and Sam were walking down the hall when Rachel approached them.
"Mercedes, Sam how are you guys doing?"
"Were fine Rachel" Sam said.
"Mercedes are you going to say something?"
Mercedes just rolled her eyes and was getting ready to walk away.
"Mercedes wait I just wanted to see if you had still plan on auditioning for Maria?"
"Yes she does" Sam said.
"Are you going to be answering for her this whole time Sam? Are you her mouthpiece now?"
"I will answer for her until she decides she wants to talk to you. And no I am not her mouthpiece I'm her man."
Mercedes looked at her man with so much pride and love the smile that crept on her face was a mile long.
"So what do you want Rachel? Mercedes and I have better things to do than to be standing here talking to you."
Rachel was obviously taken aback by Sam's word's and attitude but Mercedes has seen this Sam before and 'ain't shit' Sam has no patience for Rachel and her mess.
"I just wanted her to re-think the whole thing."
:"And why would she do that?"
"This is my part. I was made for this part. Also I am better than her."
Mercedes was about to speak when Sam put his index finger to her lips and looked at Rachel.
"You are clearly delusional right now because where I stand she proved how much better than you she was at sectionals when we beat you. And furthermore you coming over here to try and mess with her head is rather pathetic of you. I guess you know that the only way to get the part is if she chokes and we all know that's not going to happen. So we're going to go now because talking to you has been a waste of our time. Come on baby it's time for your audition."
Sam grabbed Mercedes hand and they began to walk away from a stunned Rachel and headed to the auditorium.
"Sam"
"Yes Mercy"
"I love you so much."
"Forever and Always Mercy."
"Listen to the song I sing for my audition it is all for you."
"Ok"
She went backstage to get herself together. Artie called her onstage.
"Ok Mercedes what role are you auditioning for?" Artie asked.
"Maria"
"Ok great well whenever you're ready."
She looked over to Sam who had made his way to the side of the stage and gave him a wink. Nodded to the band to start playing;
I used to cry myself to sleep at night
But that was all before he came
I thought love had to hurt to turn out right
But now he's here
It's not the same, it's not the same
[Chorus:]
He fills me up
He gives me love
More love than I've ever seen
He's all I've got,
He's all I've got in this world
But he's all the man that I need
This is going to be how it is in the future when she's onstage and I'm watching her off stage he thought. She looks so beautiful
And in the morning when I kiss his eyes
He takes me down and rocks me slow
And in the evening when the moon is high
He holds me close and won't let go
He won't let go
He fills me up
He gives me love
More love than I've ever seen
He's all I've got,
He's all I've got in this world
But he's all the man that I need
Everyone in the auditorium cheered and applauded,
"Wow Mercedes that was amazing" Coach Bieste said.
"You look stunning as well" Ms. Pilsbury said.
"I just wanted to show you who I feel I really am" Mercedes said.
"And what's that?" Artie asked
"A leading lady." She replied
She ran offstage into the waiting arms of Sam who just hugged her so tight. He cupped her face and gave her the sweetest kiss possible.
"Your all I need too Mercy please know that."
"I know Sam."
