I am so sorry guys that it's taking me this long to get the stories out. I am trying my best to do it, but my creativity has left the building. Tomorrow I will try to do better for you guys and these stories. This is at least another chapter for this one, there will be one more and then maybe an epilogue.

I do not own Glee, just the storyline.

Sorry for any mistakes, perfection is overrated.

Enjoy my loves and please review, it will literally give me life.

Sam sighs before opening the backdoor. He can still feel the anger running through his veins. He feels betrayed by his little brother. At the same time he is asking himself if he could have prevented all this as his big brother.

Shaking that thought out of his mind he looks over the garden. Mercedes is still sitting on the bench, humming a tune and kicking her feet off the ground. Sam can't help it and smiles, she looks like a cute little girl who just enjoys life.

He chuckles and she looks up at him and smiles. He walks towards her and sits beside her. They don't talk, but Mercedes leans against his side as he wraps an arm around her. They sit there both for a while, just taking in the beautiful day as they hear the bees fly and the birds chirp.

Sam can feel Mercedes relax at his side and he puts his head on her hair, inhaling her as much as he can. Moments like these make him realize that Mercedes is it for him. There is no other person on this entire earth that can make him feel quite like she does.

He feels the butterflies in his stomach as he remembers the last few months with her and realizes that he doesn't want to spend another minute without her.

She shifts in his arms and looks up at him. He looks down at her and their eyes lock. She pulls herself up a little and they kiss. It's slow and passionate, when she moans his arms tighten around her.

Her hands snake into his hair as he bites her lip, asking for entrance. She gives it to him greedily and he picks her up until she straddles him. Their tongues are fighting for dominance while their hands explore each other.

"We need to slow down babe." Sam murmurs against her lips as they break the kiss. Mercedes is having non of it and attaches her lips to his neck and he groans. She can feel his hands tighten around her hips as his manhood grows beneath her.

"I am serious Cedes or I won't be able to hold back." He pushes her gently back and she looks into his eyes. She sees his hunger for her and it makes her feel all fuzzy inside.

She kisses him again sweetly. "I am sorry. I got kinda carried away."

"I don't mind it at all, but we wanted to take it slow remember. Besides I want to tell you something."

Mercedes looks at him with a raised eyebrow as she tries not to look shocked. This is the moment she has been dreading. The moment he is going to tell her that he had a good time and she needs to move out.

"Are you still here babe?" Sam looks concerned at her face and she comes out of her own thoughts. She nods and pulls him a little closer, not wanting the connection to be broken just yet.

"I think I love you more than anything Cedes. I hope I am not scaring you with this, but I think… no I know you're it for me."

He looks at her shocked face and he regrets saying these words immediately. "I mean… I know it maybe sounds ridiculous, but-"

He can't finish his sentence because she is kissing him again. The kiss is more intense than before and her lips crash into his. She pushes her tongue into his mouth and he lays back against the bench.

Her hands are back in his hair as his rest on her behind. He squeezes her ass and she moans. She is growing wetter as each moment passes and without realizing it she is grinding against him. He moans against her lips and she can't help herself as she smirks.

When air becomes an issue they part their lips. "What was that for?" He asks breathy, trying to compose himself and failing miserably.

"God I love you." She says and pecks him again. Sam smiles at that and pulls her into a hug.

"I just want you to know I feel the same. It's weird, because we only know each other for a few months but there is nothing I couldn't share with you and I never had that. I just hope that my rule isn't an issue for you?" She shifts uncomfortably.

He pushes her hair out of her face to have a good look at her. "Babe you know how I feel about that. I can wait as long as you want me too. Don't think it's an issue for me, because it is not. I love you and I don't care if I never have sex with you as long as I have you I'll be okay."

Her heart melts at his words and her vision becomes blurry. She feels a tear leaving her lashes as it falls on her cheek. His thumb wipes it away and she gives him a watery smile. Not able to talk she kisses him again, slowly but firmly.

"I wish I could share everything with you. Even my body and the purest part of me." She holds his face in her hands while she studies his green eyes. He smiles at her and kisses her softly.

When she opens her eyes she sees a wicked smile on his face. She furrows her brows at him and cocks her head to the side. "What are you thinking Sam Evans?"

His smile grows even wider at her question and he pulls her off him and sits her down beside him on the bench. Still baffled she looks at him as he stands up and begins to pace.

What is he doing? She watches him walking from one part of the garden to the other and back. She has no idea what is going on in his mind and she chuckles a little at his antics. This is the man she fell in love with the moment he opened his eyes.

She knew it back then, but was never sure. She has never been in love, not really at least. And then all the stuff with Stevie happened. She winces at the thought of him. He has to be sick for sure to do something like that.

But she can't blame anyone else for what he did and she certainly can't feel guilty anymore about her part in it. She can finally forgive herself and maybe even Stevie at one point. They were both young and very stupid.

He needs to work on himself to make himself grow and be better, but this all wouldn't have happened without the man who is making her dizzy right now with his walking around. This handsome man who got hit by a car, while she got hit by love.

This couldn't have gone better than it did. Couldn't it? She laughs at her own thoughts. Okay maybe it could have gone better, but this is growth and growing up and that with the man you love and loves you.

Without warning Sam turns towards Mercedes. She inhales sharply as his hands grab her thighs. It happens so fast that she can't really register what is happening.

"I thought about this for a while. You told me you wanted to wait and I respect that. You also have to know that you are amazing and beautiful and so goddamn gorgeous. And I will forever want you, you have to know that. So after saying all that, my dear Mercedes?"

He stops for a second and looks at her. She feels her cheeks go red as she looks down at him. He is on one knee in front of her as she is still sitting down on the bench. Mercedes knows where this is going, but damn it feels like a dream.

She nods for him to continue. He clears his throat.

"Would you make me the happiest man on earth and do me the honor of becoming my wife?"

I hope it's not too short of a chapter. Please tell me what you think, because I really need it and I hope it will give me more energy to continue writing. It's just really hard right now. If you have any ideas for what you want to read in the next chapter, please tell me.

Thank you so much for reading. Please stay safe.
