Santana's P.O.V
"The titanic is a classic!"
"Brit it's a movie about thousands of people drowning."
"It's also about finding your one true love."
"You such a fairytale princess."
It's been a month since the evans moved in and we all gotten pretty close. Mercedes is hanging with sam more , even brooklyn has taken a liking to him. He's really funny but he he also very relentless, He wants to take Mercedes on a date but she doesn't wanna complicate things . She likes just being friends.
Unique is still ducking Ryder and i don't know why she is obviously into him and he is obviously into her but the only problem is that annoying lil girlfriend of his. She is a bitch and that's coming from the top bitch.
As for me and brittany. I don't know what we are, I mean no never made me feel how brittany does not even carson. I don't know this feeling but i do like it. She treats me so nicely and She loves the girls. We've become like the best of friends.
"Do you hear your mama?" Brittany said picking up Macy as I looked for a other movie. We were currently watching movies in her apartment. She and i both had the day off so we figured why not spend the day together. With the kids of course.
"Oh hush." I said picking up the movies. "We've got Mulan, Princess and the frog, Bad teacher, Nutty professor, or Life."
"Bad teacher is good." She said bouncing macy."
"It's also not kid friendly." I said laughing.
"Well let's the girls pick." She said putting her down next to Marylin.
"Great let the one year old's pick." I said looking at her. "What about Instant family? it's for the family."
"So we a family now?" She asked smirking.
I just looked at her not really understanding her question.
"Let's just watch the movie." I said popping it in and grabbing Marylin as she grabbed macy.
"Santana?" She asked looking at me.
"Wassup?" I said keeping my eyes on the tv screen.
"Have you ever been with a girl?" She asked.
I froze. Why was she asking me this? Was i giving off that vibe? Did i look like a lesbian? I can't tho. I mean i have 2 kids.
"Umm no. Have you?" I asked still not looking.
"Duh. I love sweet lady kisses." She said and we started to laugh.
"Well ive only been with one gender." I said rocking my baby.
"Go out with me."
"What?"
"Go out with me."
"Like on a date?"
"Duh silly."
She said smiling. God her smile is beautiful.
"Brittany I'm not gay." I said.
"I know. but a date won't hurt." She said.
I just looked at her. Why is it so hard saying no to tell her. Santana! what are you doing?! YOU NOT GAY!
But She is really cute and what's one da-
"Santana? are you ok?" She asked looking at me confused.
"Umm yes." I said smiling. "Im fine and your right one date won't hurt."
"Great!" She said so excited.
"So where are we going?" In asked.
"A ball." She said smirking.
God what am i doing?
Unique's P.O.V
"You are so rude to that boy for no reason." Mercedes said as she did my hair.
"Mercedes i thought we talked about this." I said flipping through my magazine.
I love my girl but her AND santana can be a lil nosey. Especially since this whole ryder situation.
"All im saying is he is only trying to be nice to you and every time he so much as utters a word you shut him down." She said.
"That is not truth." I said defensively.
"Then what you call it?" She asked.
"Mercedes ok i get it. Now finish my hair please." I said.
"You shutting me down because you know im right." She mumbled as she finished up.
"Mercedes you have a visitor." LaShonda said coming into the cube smirking.
"ma!"'Sam said in a baby voice as he walked in with brooklyn on his hip.
Him and Mercy have gotten super close. We all think they have a thing for each other but they deny it every time. Well mercedes does , sam on the other hand is falling and falling hard.
"Hi my baby." Mercedes said walking over to him and taking brooklyn.
"Hey unique." Sam said waving to me.
"Hey sam." I said not taking my eyes off my magazine.
"So how was the park." Mercedes said looking at him.
"Great! but i never knew a little girl could run that fast." He said laughing.
"She saw a dog?"
"German Shepherd."
"Ahh her favorite."
She said and the both laughed.
"No, seriously we had a good time and we ate alot." He said tickling brook.
"Sam please don't tell me you fed her junk all day?" Mercedes said looking at him.
"Of course not ... not that much at least." He whispered.
"Sam!" She said smacking him.
"Umm sorry to break up your love fest but i have somewhere to be in a couple of hours mercedes." I said looking at them.
"Well we just came to say hey." Sam said taking the baby back and Mercedes came back to finish my head.
"You guys can just stay. Unique is my last client today anyway." She said unwrapping my silk press.
"That's cool. We will just go to the ice cream shop." He said walking out before she could say anything.
"NO MORE SWEETS SAM!" She yelled. "God he's hard headed."
"Yall are so cute." I said smirking.
"We are just friends." She said combing through my hair.
"Just friends my ass! You like him." I said.
"Yes. As a friend. Like I told Santana, Sam , Brittany, Ryder and now im telling you. Me and sam are just friends and we will continue to stay friends. He's a great guy and he is amazing with brook but i just don't see myself dating right." She said turning me around to the mirror.
Yessss! My girl can slay some hair now.
"Please! you are so into him. but hey no rush. if you say you're not into him , then your not into him." I said looking at my hair.
"Thank you! and where exactly do you have to be that you in such a rush?" She asked sitting in her extra salon chair.
"Well if you must know. Your sista has a date." I said smiling.
It's true! Ya girl met a guy. He is cool and a single parent as well. Such a gentleman. We met at my job , he's the janitor but sweet and good looking.
"A date? Since when?" Mercedes asked surprise.
"Don't act surprised but yes i have a date. With jimmy." I said looking at her.
"The janitor?!" She semi-yelled.
"How do you know he's the janitor?" I asked.
She shrugged. "You talk a lot when you're drunk."
"All i seem to do." I said. "But yes , jimmy the janitor. He wants to take me to Fazoli's."
"Fazoli's? He can afford Fazoli's?! Hell can you?" She said looking at me.
"Just because he's a janitor doesn't mean he can't afford to do nice things." I said.
"He brought you a knock off pada bag , from a convenient store, it was a rotten hot dog in it." She said laughing.
"Mercedes Judge-mental much?"
She laughed. "Im just saying."
"And im just saying. He's a nice guy and im going out with him , so please." I said looking at her as she holds her hands up. "I also need you to pick up grayson for me."
"Fine. but don't be surprise when he pulls up on a bike." She said laughing.
Ryder's P.O.V
"The Brushwell property is up and ready." My assistant patty said over the phone.
"Thank you patty. Now could you give Mr & Mrs Johnson for me." I said smiling.
"Will do and you have some visitors here to see you."
"Do i have any meetings or appointments?"
"No. Only brittany and that's not until friday."
"Send them in."
"Yessir."
Then she hung up.
"Look at big bro doing his thang." I heard a voice say.
Stacy and Stevie the youngest twins of the evans tribe and a pain in our asses.
"What are you two doing here?" I asked standing up.
"Visiting duh." Stacy said hugging me.
"Yall here by yourselves?" I asked.
"Ryder we our mature adults who are bran-." Stevie started to say but was cut off.
"Summer and sander will here saturday for the ball as well they the rest of family." Stacy said.
"So why are you guys here?" I asked looking at my watch. "It's only tuesday."
"Stacy has an audition thursday." Stevie said sitting.
"To one of the best performing arts school in new york." She said smiling.
"That's great short stuff." I said hugging her. "Im so proud of you."
"Im so excited, yet nervous asl NYADA is a tough school. I mean im ready i just wanna be good you know?" She said pacing the floor.
"Stac you are going to be great. you are flawless in your craft and if they can't see that , that's on them." I said looking at her.
Stevie looked up from his magazine. "Buddy you gonna kick ass."
"So why are you here?" I asked looking at him.
He stood up. "Well while stacy is at her audition, imma be bussin the beats at Larsson performing arts."
"Larsson? you do know that's tougher than NYADA right? With that school you gotta actually know what you are doing." I said crossing my arms.
Stevie is more like sander in a way. They like to go with the flow alot and sometimes it ain't always good.
"I know what im doing. I mean come on who doesn't want a white guy with saxophone skills?" He asked smirking.
"A smart person." Stacy said laughing. "But ryder is right. you also have the grades to match your talent."
"That's with any school." I said.
"I get it. But lucky for them i have both." Stevie said.
"You can't even past mathematics." She said.
"Says the person who spelled dog with a b." He said.
"It's called dyslexia stupid ass."
"Yeah! stop. All im saying is what you guys are doing is great and im proud of you, but make sure all your ducks are in a row first." I said.
"We do." Stevie said.
"And can you not say anything because we don't want anyone to know until we actually make it. No need to get anyone's hopes up." Stacy said.
"You guys are going to make it. Your evans." I said smiling. "But since your here , yall can help me with this ball."
"We out!" They both said and rushed out quickly.
"Be at the house by 10." I yelled.
Those kids.
Sam's P.O.V
"It's a family ball. It's actually the first one we had in 10 years." I said as me , mercedes, and brooklyn sat in the diner.
"So you need a date?" She asked taking a bit out of her burger.
Love how she is straight to the point.
"Sorta. I need dates." I said standing up and getting on my knee.
"Sam what the hell are you doing?" She said looking at me crazy.
"Brooklyn Miles and Mercedes Jones , will you be my dates to the ball?" I asked smiling wildly.
I think a rush of relief came over her because she let out a loud woah.
I laughed. "Is that a yes?"
Brooklyn clapped her hands so i knew she was on board. Now it was up to her mommy.
"Yes. I would love to." She said smiling.
"Ugh thank god." I said standing to my feet. "My knees we're giving out."
I sat down and looked at her. Her smile is everything, she is truly a masterpiece.
"You scared the living hell out of me. I thought you were proposing." She said laughing.
"Oh god no." I said and she stop laughing. "No! not like that , im just saying when i do propose it won't be in a run down old diner and it definitely won't be small."
"Are you saying you wanna marry me sam evans?" She asked.
"Only if you let me." I said smiling.
"I'm letting you be my friend."
"Good enough for me...for now."
She just played with her food and we sat in a comfortable silence with the noises coming from brooklyn. Until she spoke.
"So who all will be at the ball?" She asked popping a fry in her mouth.
"Family, friends, colleagues. More important people." I said sipping my drink.
"And you sure you want me as your date?" She asked.
"Well your not really my date. Brooklyn is. I asked her first." I said smiling.
"You know what i mean sam." She said.
"What do you mean mercedes."
"I mean , Are you sure you want your misfit friend and her child joining you at a ball , that "important people " will be at?"
"Why wouldn't i?"
She looked at me and sighed.
"I just don't want people to get the wrong impression." She said wiping brooklyn's hands.
"What impression? That me and you are dating and im taking care of brooklyn?" I asked.
"No that you befriended a poor black girl and now she taking hand outs from you." She said rolling her eyes.
"Mercedes that will not happen. so can you please stop stressing and eat." I said.
"Im just saying ma-
"Dada!" Brooklyn said loudly.
Mercedes and sam stopped to look at her. She was looking at me excitedly , well at least i think she was looking at me.
"Did she just call me dada?" I asked looking at mercedes.
Before she could get a word in. A pair of arms reached around brooklyn and tried to grab her and before i knew it i was pouncing on the guy. I didn't know who he was or what he was doing but you do just come up and grab someone's child.
"Wtf man?!" He screamed and i punched him in the mouth.
"YOU LIKE TO GRAB KIDS THAT DON'T BELONG TO YOU?!" I said punching him again. Im pretty sure people were looking at this point.
"Sam stop! get off of him!" I heard mercedes yelled.
"Do you know him?" I asked looking back at her and got off of him.
"Yes." She said going over to him and helping him up. "Sam this is benjamin , brooklyn's father."
Oh shit
