Crash
This Fic is dedicated to my sister who was in an accident recently, thank God she's alright but it was close
"Babe we have everything come on" Sam shouted for the fourth time as Mercy went back into the house to get a bottle
"Are you sure we shouldn't have got the plane it would have been quicker" she came out saying
"Three children, Mom and a wheelchair and cases no babe pack them once and in seven hours tops we should be there" he replied loading the small bags, she'd just brought out, onto the trailer
"I'm sure I can hear adventure in your voice Mr, this is a nightmare" she laughed
"It is an adventure and a wedding to boot" he laughed
"So" Mercy said standing teasingly against the car door "Teething nearly 1 year old, 5 year old still in terrible twos mode and 7 year old sulk almighty is your idea of a family ready for adventure?" she grinned
"And a leaky, disabled Mom" his Mom shouted through the open window laughing
"Come on" Sam said rolling his eyes at the negative talk "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, or something like that" he smiled "Look we'll have plenty of stops for them, leaks included" he looked at his Mom saying making her laugh as he pulled Mercy towards him and opened the door for her to get in "Humour me babe" he asked before he kissed her and let her into the car shutting the door before getting in himself.
The drove for 2 hours before the children showed any signs of boredom and Mercy insisted a stop, spending money on rides, burgers and drinks and then waiting for everyone to empty their bladders before started off again. 2 hours away from their destination and Sam pulled up sharpish at a red light the car behind him swerved round him and decided to chase the light just as this lorry came through the light and inevitably there was a collision. The car was sent reeling into the air and landed on its roof, it happened so quickly Sam and Mercy didn't have time to react before everyone in the car started screaming and because they had the windows down they could hear the chaos going on in the streets as everyone stood around trying to focus on what just happened. The next thing they heard was the screech of the breaks being slammed down on the lorry that had sent the car hurling.
"God Sam there are children in the car" Mercy screamed as she focused on the upturned car and got out of the car
"God" Sam said getting out himself as they moved towards the car
"Get my babies" the woman in the car shouted "get my babies" she kept repeating over and over again
"Okay" Mercy said as she neared pulling at the rare car door "Sam I can't open this" she shouted to him as he went round to the other side of the car to try the other door
"Try the front" Sam shouted busy pulling the door on his side open "I have one of the children" he shouted shortly after, "Two" "Three" "Four" "How many children are in here?" he asked as he worked to get them out
"I'm calling an ambulance" Mercy shouted back at Sam "I've got the front door open" she shouted back as she saw someone running towards them
"How can I help?" the male said
"Take the children to safety" Sam replied "And get more hands on deck we need help here" Sam said "I've removed 4 children so far and there are more"
"How many children in the car?" Mercy asked the woman
"Five and one here" she said pointing at her belly
"God Sam she's pregnant" Mercy said almost crying
"Babe you need to stay calm, if we're going to help these people" he replied looking at her across the car
"Are you hurt?" Mercy asked the woman in the passenger seat, composing herself
"My husband hasn't moved since the collision" she said as Mercy looked over at the very pale man laying unconscious watching his chest for movement
"Sam can you get in on that side and see if the driver is alright?"
I can't feel a pulse" Sam said to someone who appeared at his side "Lady I'm going to have to get you out first"
"Is he's dead" she asked looking at Sam "Is he dead, oh my God he's dead" she screamed chillingly as the man lay across her legs upside down in the car
Mercy couldn't help it tears left her eyes at the woman's pain "Okay" she finally said "Calm down remember your baby, the ambulance is on it's way and the children are fine, he looks like a strong man he'll make it" she said rubbing the lady's arm and wiping her tears
"We'll try lifting her out" the man standing next to Mercy said to Sam through the car. Sam made his way round to help with the lift, as they carefully lifted her out of the car and lay her on the ground far away from the car
"Hey the engine's sparked" a guy shouted as Sam and the guy made their way back to the wreck
"Mercy get back" Sam shouted
"He's not moving" she shouted back
"Mercy move, get away from the car" Sam said running towards her "Babe will you do as I ask please?" he said as he neared her "There are sparks which means this could go up like a firework you need to get further away from here"
"So why are you standing here?" she asked
"To get you, come on" he ordered
"There's a man in there, a father of six Sam" she said looking back at the car "You can be my hero baby" she smiled as Sam rolled his eyes and went to go towards the car
"I love you" he stepped back to say and kissed her
"Go babe there's sparks apparently" she smiled as Sam ran to catch up with the man that was helping him and came back minutes later with the driver in hand still floppy as they heard the ambulance in the vicinity "Ambulance is here" Mercy shouted as Sam came towards her "Babe run" she said running herself "Sparks" she shouted as Sam and the guy came running towards her dragging the Driver as the car exploded
"Sam" Mercy shouted as he dropped the driver and went to get her, grabbing her and covering her with his body as the flames flew up in the sky and held her there until the flames died down
"Are you alright babe" he said as he pulled her up and hugged her before they went to see how the victims were and pass any information they had to the services
"He's going to be fine, come on it's time to go we're late enough as it is" Sam said as Mercy hugged the woman once more before leaving them and going back to their family
"What in God's name did you two think you were doing going in like that?" his Mom asked crying as Sam rolled his eyes and smiled at Mercy
"You don't say anything when you see me do that on TV" he laughed
"Sam don't play with me everyone knows TV isn't real" she hissed as Mercy gave him a stop look "I'm disabled for God sake, how in hell do you guys expect me to cope with 3 small children if anything had happened to you?"
"Sorry Mom" he said looking over his shoulder before starting the car "I guess someone needed help and we acted on instinct"
'Just saved the lives of six children and their parents feeling superhuman' Mercy Sapped their friends
'You been on set with Sam' Satan replied
'No for real there was a crash right in front of us'
'OMG is everyone alright' Kurt asked
'Guys be specific T is in bits here' Artie wrote
'As I said we're hero's' she wrote with a smily face
'But did you see any dead people?' Kurt asked again
'LOL, No Sam saved everyone'
"I videoed it all" his Mom said as Mercy turned to smile a her "For the children to see the last act of their dead parents" she spat out cutting her eye at Sam through his rear view mirror
"You Tube it babe" Sam said ignoring the look, as Mercy did just that, sending the link to their friends, of course the commentary the media put on it was more about Mercy Evans the R&B Diva and Sam Evans the Movie Star than it was about the poor victims of the accident.
'You've just scared the crap out of me, so you guys weren't in an accident?' Tina wrote
'No T we just witnessed the crash' Mercy wrote
'You just helped me chose my theme for our hen/stag night, songs about crashes' Tina wrote
'Who the hell wants to sing about crashes and death for their hen/stag night' Rachael sapped
'Goth remember!' Tina Wrote as everyone sent smily faces 'Seriously I was affected by that news I went somewhere else on that'
'She really did Mercy, we both did the thought' Artie wrote with a sad face
'Love all you guys too' Mercy wrote 'obviously going to be late'
"Tina's set the theme as crash" Mercy told Sam as they drove along
"She's always been extreme" he laughed "it's their event" he said shrugging his shoulders "Maybe its her way of dealing with trauma"
"As she wrote it reminded me of that fact yeah, she was Goth when Artie and her first got together I suppose she's taking it back there, that's romantic" Mercy smiled to herself "How long left I need some sleep before this hen/stag thing starts, life saving is hard work" she laughed
"Not impressed" his Mom said cutting their laugh
"Yeah I hear that I need some sleep too" Sam said looking at Mercy before rolling his eyes at his Mom's comment
"So who's going to look after the clan while you two 'Sleep'?" his Mom asked doing comment box hands as she said sleep
"Too many relatives there to pick" Sam said laughing
So they eventually got to the venue and found their rooms before joining everyone in the great hall, saying their hellos and stuff. About an hour later Tina shouted "Everyone's here" clapping her hands "So everyone thanks for coming to help Artie and I finally tie our already secured knot" she smiled "We wanted to do something different so I guess we've took everyone's ideas and mashed them up a bit to come up with something adventurous" she laughed "The children and young adults will be just through there with the Nanny's and stuff they have lots to keep them busy; playing, limited music, games or eating" she said pointing to the room on the left of the great hall. Mercy and Sam moved forward with the children in tow obviously to have a look at the place and check credentials before depositing their children there.
"Okay our Parents are in that space" she said pointing to a room at the right of the great hall "You'll find, Food, TV, piano and, just ask for anything you don't see" she smiled "Everyone that's not fit a category yet back here in like 2 hours" she said clapping her hands, signalling she'd finished
Sam and Mercy didn't need telling twice, a couple of hours without children and Mom, they had no problems knowing what their time was for exiting to their hotel room.
2 hours Later
"Okay guys" Artie shouted across the room "We all know the wedding itself is going to be low key which is why we're going all out on this do tonight, with the no children allowed thing" he smiled "We're heading down to the cabin in the woods for our off the wall party and guy's what happens in cabin stays in cabin and" Artie said holding his hand up "No wife swapping" he laughed as he led everyone out of the room
"Well guys you can see by the tables what kind of night we expect this to be" Tina laughed as everyone looked around at the shots, eats, games, couches and chairs around the room
"It's a back in the day lock in like I used to have" Rachael announced
"No Rachael" Blaine said "No locked cabinets and you can sit on everything in here" he laughed
"And no tickets for drinks" Puck added
"Okay 3 shots each then we can get this party started" Tina announced going towards the drinks table to pick up a tray with drinks to serve
"You will not" Mercy said looking at Sam for his attention "I repeat, will not, be kissing or anything else any of these bitches tonight or any time soon, are we clear?"
"Crystal" he said smiling at her for her jealous coming out "Neither will you" he said in her ear "or the guys" he smiled making her smile too as they grabbed their drinks and downed on three like everyone else. After the third shot Rachael, clearly already affected, was the first to suggest singing
"A song about crash, Crashes or crashing or something?" she asked looking at Tina who nodded "Okay I choose 'Crash' by Jamie McDell some clapped while others sat looking on when she finished
"Are you sure this is the theme you want T?" Blaine asked as everyone looked on hoping she'd change her mind
"Yeah it is" she smiled
"Okay I guess I'll go next" Jessie smiled "I'm thinking to keep it as uplifting as I can so here goes" he said looking at Rachael "I choose 'Crash into me' by Dave Matthews Band he announced before singing his slow jolly song and afterwards everyone clapped his efforts as he went back to cuddle Rachael and watch everyone else for the evening
"All about the sexy I like it" Sam commented looking at Mercy "Hike up that skirt a little more, and show my world to me" he laughed
"I think I'll do mine" Brittany piped in "It's a bit jolly" she giggled "I'm going to sing 'Crash' by Gwen Stefani she smiled at Santana who raised an eyebrow at her choice, of course Mike got up and done some of those old school moves with her and surprisingly so did Sugar.
"I'm waiting for you to crash into me real hard if you know what I mean" Mercy whispered in his ear as they danced
"Back it the fuck up" he laughed grabbing hold of her waist and pulling her in with such force she bounced back off him as she turned and smiled
"You got it" she sang in time with the song dancing and playing until the end of the song when everyone cheered and clapped
"Game" Tina shouted as she handed out another shot glass "Okay she said handing all the girls balloons "Tie these to your ankles" she instructed as all the girls did as instructed "Now" she said when everyone was ready "The aim of the game is to be the only one standing with unburst balloons on their ankles and no hands" she smiled "After three, two, one go" she said as everyone set about bursting the balloons. Twenty minutes later and a lot of encouragement from the watchers Santana stood victorious earning herself an extra shot
"Can I sing my crash song?" Kurt asked
"Sure" Artie replied
"I'm going to sing 'Crash this train' by Joshua James he smiled I guessed I'd sing something that sends a message since it has to be so mournful" he said before he started singing his version of the song as everyone sat around hugging their loved ones
"Sons of Anarchy" Sam shouted when he finished, clapping louder than everyone else obviously appreciating the music
"That was really powerful" Puck said "Reminded me of my service days" he said hugging Kurt
"I'll take the next slot if no one minds" Quinn announced walking to the small stage "And I chose 'Crash' by The Primitives she smiled as everyone caught the beat and got up to dance about as she sang, some joining in the chorus with her until it came to an end and everyone clapped and collapsed in their chairs
"Wow knackered" Sam fell on the couch saying pulling Mercy down with him
"Na na na na na na" she mimicked at him "That did go on a bit I was ..." she got out before they heard someone shouting
"Come on you unhealthy lot get up and dance" Mike said cranking the music up and singing 'Crash into my love' By Shall Ocin Everyone got up dancing to his favourite mix, as Brittany, Santana, Blaine, Sam and Sugar got into the formation thing going on "You guys need to come to my gym I'd have you on that tune for about an hour" he laughed when the song finished
"Damn this is hard going, I got to slow this down a bit I'm heading for a frigging heart attack" Sam smiled saying to Mercy
"I know that feeling but, seriously there was no need to be jumping up into the heavens for three whole minutes" she laughed as Sam moved away talking and laughing
"I need to slow down so I have one" Sam said stepping forward "Well at most it's a slow rock" he laughed "it's called 'Crash & Burn ' by Savage Garden he smiled at Mercy saying "Babe we just saved like 8 people's lives today" he buzzed at her
"I know" she smiled buzzing too "We did" she nodded saying, as the music started and he sung his song for the night, every one clapped when he'd finished as he bowed before taking his seat and hugged Mercy
"I love you babe" he said kissing her neck
"I love you too babe"
"Another game" Artie shouted "For the guys this time and get ready to get intimate" he said looking at Tina as Mercy looked at Sam warning him with her eyes "Okay guys" Artie said as Tina came forward with a small piece of paper "Stand in a line" he ordered "Now the aim is to pass this sheet of paper" Artie said looking at Tina as she held the paper up for all to see "With only your lips" he added as Sam looked to see Mike on his left and Kurt on his right, rolling his eyes as Mercy broke into a real belly laugh. The game itself lasted about 25 minutes in total excluding the whinging about kissing guys and stuff and then there was the straight verses gay guy kiss Puck went on about for about 10 minutes and then the instagram pictures that threatened to go out almost immediately, all in all it took about an hour to do that one game. Jessie finally announcing that the only good thing about the whole damn game was that they finished it and, got three extra shots.
"Okay" Tina said not impressed with the lack of team player-ship going on in the party "I guess it's my turn to sing" she announced "I'm going to sing 'Crash Your Party' by Karmin as everyone got up and danced around to her jumpy version of the song and hugged her after the performance
"I'm definitely here to crash your party Mrs Evans" Sam smiled
"You know I have a party every night yeah?" she asked sassy
"Yep, I aim to please" he smiled
"I guess as my Lady's done hers I'll take this opportunity to do mine too" Artie announced "You all know I'm going R&B coz that's me so I'm singing 'Crash' by Usher and everyone started dancing as the music started,
"I really really wanna to love you, I'm really only yours" Sam sang in her ear as they danced
"Would you mind if I still love you" she sang
"I'm not thinking about nobody else but you you're the only one that takes me there" ending with a kiss as they broke away and danced to the rest of the song clapping and cheering along with everyone else at the end of his performance
"Drinks" Tina shouted as the tray emerged which seemed to be attached to her arm for the night
"I think I'm tipsy" Mercy laughed saying
"I know you are" Sam giggled at her as he took two drinks for them and sat down
"Okay since we're bringing out the big guns I guess I'll try out my contribution this is my attempt at Rock" Puck said "Grab your guitars, or object of noise pleasure guys" he announced as he started strumming and Sam joined in on guitar as Jessie grabbed the drums and Artie went on the electronic ivories and the rock session started 'Crash' by Decyfer Down as everyone else jumped around banging heads and playing imaginary instruments
"You won't keep me down" Sam laughed as he played his guitar in front of Mercy
"I'm never backing down" she sang back
"You've developed a heavy side" Blaine noted "I like it, well done Q" as Puck smiled as everyone clapped his efforts
"Suits you" Sam told him
"Game" Tina shouted "Okay this is a funny one" she laughed "We're going to see how familiar you are with your man's hands" she laughed "Right you can only touch his hand your not allowed to hold it in any way and you'll be blindfolded" she announced "At the end, when everyone's been up, you'll say what number was your man's hand" she announced as she handed out the blindfolds "Taffy will you come guide us please" she called to one of the party organisers that was setting up the chairs.
So they put their blindfolds on and the partners were seated ready "Remember no talking, giggling nothing and no holding hands just a touch" Tina warned before she put her eye covers on and Taffy was left to do the last minute things
Each person went down the line and when they had all passed they were asked the number of their partners hand
"My Man's hand was number 3" Kurt said smugly
"Correct" Blaine jumped up saying
"The hands I want feeling me are number 6" Santana said
"That's my girl" Brittany said leaving the line
"I'm in the dark here because I thought my man's hand was number 3" Rachael said "But as a second I'll go with 2" she smiled taking off her blindfold to see Artie sitting there
"Don't say who it is" Tina rushed to say hearing it wasn't Jessie
"Okay, I'd have been pissed if number 2 was yours Rachael because he should be mine" Tina voiced taking her eye cover off to find Artie smiling at her
"4's mine" Mercy said dragging her eye cover off to see Sam smiling at her"
"Okay if 4's yours then my second option was 1" Quinn said as Mercy rolled her eyes
"No 1 is definitely mine" Sugar piped up
"Correct" Mike shouted with his hands up in the air
"Okay I'll take 5" she smiled taking the eye cover off to see a sad Puck "I knew you were 5 all along Hon I just need you angry tonight" she purred
"I've been frozen out I guess, my hands could be anyone's on my wife" Jessie laughed
"Don't be like that love you know I like these rough" she said grabbing his hands open to sit in his lap
"Okay" Santana said getting up "Wacky" she smiled looking at everyone wide eyed at Rachael's uncharacteristic comment "I'm up for singing, I'm going to do 'Crash Landed' by Sweetbox she announced as the music started and Britt was up dancing around
"Definitely a crash landing" Sam said lifting his eyebrows "I didn't get it" he said when she finished
"I'll give you a week to catch up Trouty" She replied as everyone clapped her contribution happy it was Sam that had said that and not them
"Apparently she's got Britt in her head all the time making her out of control" Mercy paraphrased "And Satan" she shouted getting everyone's attention "I'd love it if you stopped calling my husband Trouty, and believe I have names for you, even you haven't heard yet or, referring to him as if he's stupid he's far from it" she said as Sam hugged her tighter and kissed her forehead
"Okay I guess that leaves me before the finale" Blaine said jumping up to take the stage before the face off erupted, and the music started as he sung 'Crash' By Sum 41 a really sombre song as everyone rocked holding their partners
"I never want to say goodbye to you babe" Mercy lifted her head off his chest to say as they danced around
"I don't plan on seeing what life without you looks like babe" he replied pulling her back in
"I feel so grateful" Kurt said once they all stopped clapping "I mean seriously we all saw that newsflash today and I'm stood here now thinking things were really dangerous for Sam and Mercy today, I mean I think I need to thank God you know, and I don't even really believe in him" he smiled as everyone came in for a group hug
"Let's have a game and another drink" Tina announced trying to lighten the mood as she went to get the tray to pass around
"Spin the bottle" Brittany suggested looking around the room
"Girl I know you know I own this" Mercy said pointing to Sam "and spin on me is all he plays nowadays" she announced looking at Brittany
"Hold up I choose the games and it's a partners one" Tina said rubbing her hand together "lets see who's had the most to drink" she said handing out Carrots on stings to the girls and bottles to the boys "Okay ladies your job is to get the carrot into the bottle" she smiled "Men your job is to make sure the Ladies don't hurt themselves in doing it" she laughed as everyone looked at her puzzled "The carrot will be tied around your waist using the string of course and hanging at the back of you" she said to the ladies "And the bottles will be on your chest" she said the men
"That's not fair my booty's bigger than everyone else's" Mercy moaned as Sam smiled proudly
"No hands can touch the carrot" Tina instructed "Men it's easier if your laying down" she prompted as they all got down on the floor and set the bottle up ready
"I could just go to sleep just now" Mike said
"I could just go to bed right now" Sam smiled looking up at Mercy's backside above him with her legs spread eagled across him
"Okay" Artie said grabbing everyone's attention "but before we start" he said looking at Tina for a smile "Another shot" he said as everyone gave out a sigh in defeat
"This is like the 10th shot" Mercy protested
"Yeah we have a few more to go" Tina said laughing as the shots came round, everyone drunk as instructed and the game started
Sam and Mercy finished first with precision "That's why I have game in the bedroom" Sam shouted as they watched the others struggling "I listen to instructions" he laughed as he rested his head in Mercy's crutch her having sat directly above his head when they finished
Puck's attempts began getting ex-rated as he tried to guide Quinn down onto the bottle which he'd placed by his mouth
Rachael gave up and flat sat on Jessie's face "Put it in" she said frustrated at the game
"Yeaaaa" Kurt shouted some ten minutes later when Blaine and he had achieved the goal
Everyone else finally gave up "Okay guys you get a..."
"Please not another shot" Mercy waved "I'm going to vomit" she said as Sam jumped up from his under her mouth position "What are you saying Evans?" she asked him
"Do you need the bathroom?" he asked offering his hand to pull her up
"No"
"You sure?"
"Yeah" she said as he resumed his position
"Just please not in my mouth" he looked up at her saying making her laugh
"I was going to say as it's you two an extra song" Tina said "From our unsung heroes" she said cocking her eye at Mercy
"Don't have to ask me twice" they said together before laughing
"Can I go before the finale?" Sugar asked
"You gonna sing Sugar?" Santana asked
"Yeah I've been practising and having lessons and stuff" she said looking at Mike who was encouraging her "So I'm going to try and sing 'Crash, Boom, Bang' by Roxette she announced as the music started and everyone sat rocking and listening to the angelic voice coming out of this person who couldn't hold a note when they first met her at school
"That was brilliant" Mercy said as Mike went to get her "Keep that up you'll be giving me a run for my money" she smiled
"Stop exaggerating Mercy" Rachael said side eyeing her
"What! She's good" Mercy replied
"For Sugar she's good" Rachael corrected
"Ok" Mercy said making to get up "I guess I have the last song of the night" she smiled lifting Sam's head up to get up and take centre stage "I'm going to sing 'Crash & Burn' by Traci Braxton she said as everyone wooed as the music started an she sun her song
"I miss your voice Girl" Santana said as Mercy found Sam again and sat back down
"If you crash I crash babe" he said hugging her "We'll go as far as we want" he said kissing her "Are you happy babe?" he looked at her to ask
"You make me happy babe, yes I'm happy" she said kissing him
"Okay lets rap this up" Artie said
"Not so fast" Tina said "Sam as Mercy owe us all a song"
"Do you want to go first babe?" Mercy asked
"Sure" Sam said getting up "Seriously I'm impressed at how many crash songs we've found but there are more" he smiled "I'm going to sing 'Crash my Party' by Luke Bryan yes Puck Country" he laughed as the music started and he looked at Mercy for his smile before singing his rendition of the song directly to her, everyone appreciating the country song when he finished as he went forward and pulled Mercy up for her song
"I haven't got another crash song" she announced as everyone booed "Hold up the theme's crash and I'm sticking to that" she smiled as Sam threw food around at those booing her "One of my favourite films is Crash does that count?" she asked as she fanned through her playlist standing on stage "Oh I got one here I don't really know it that well I just downloaded it" she smiled
"You do best on the fly Babe" Sam smiled taking her phone and giving her his as he put hers in the pod
"Okay just let me get the words up and I'll be ready" she said concentrating on the phone "Alright ready" she said looking up and giving Sam the nod to start the music
"I love her sound" Rachael whispered to Jessie as they snuggled into their corner they had created early in the evening
Mercy smiled at Sam as she sang 'Crashing Down' by Kady Z as everyone bobbed around to the song and clapped at the end
"I've never really heard that before" Santana said
"No me neither I just like looking for budding talent, its a hobby" Mercy smiled
"That's the second sad song you've sung today you sure you're alright?" Sam asked as she grabbed hold of him
"I'm fine babe" she said not looking at him
"Mercy" he said pulling her to look at him "What's up, talk to me"
"I might just be too tired and too drunk" she said before sighing
"It's me your talking to I know what tired looks like on you, something's wrong, what's up?"
"Can we do this in the morning babe for now will you just hold me?" she asked
"I can't sleep knowing something is wrong for you babe, and tomorrow is busy remember"
"Okay its maybe just thinking about the accident and stuff, that could have been us had it been another day and we didn't have the children in the car we would have second guessed that light and I know I would have gone through and I'm just thinking life is that fragile"
"There are a lot of could haves in there babe, we didn't skip that light today, and today's lesson will hopefully mean that we'll think twice before thinking of skipping lights again and yes life is fragile and temporary and that's why my intention is to keep you happy for every minute I have you here with me" he said hugging her in "We did a really good thing today babe, we should feel proud for walking the talk"
"I know your right and I feel proud too, it's just well I love you, I love our family and I don't know today made me realise that something is going to change and it will be out of our control"
"We can only work with what we can control babe, our love will keep us strong" he said walking her over to their Couch and sitting down
"Shots" Tina shouted as the tray came round and an hour later most were asleep or on the way there
Sam took two more drinks and they downed them before laying on the couch to chill and listen to the background music
"Babe you asleep?" Sam asked an hour later
"Not quite" Mery said sleepily
"But you want sleep yeah?" he asked
"I'm fine here babe, if you are" she replied "I could do with seeing the babies but I've been drinking and stuff" she drowsily said "I had such big plans for tonight" she smiled "I'm laying here like some alcoholic" she said snuggling into his arms as he pulled her in, her whole body laying on top of his with a blanket over them "I think you were right babe I think that was T's way of dealing with things"
"I love you guys" A very drunk Tina crawled over to them saying "If anything ever happened to you I don't know what I'd do Mercy you've been my friend forever" she said as she crawled up the couch and hugged them before flopping back to the ground
"Is she alright?" Sam asked as Mercy looked down the side of the couch
"She's breathing" Mercy replied as she snuggled back in to get some sleep "She maybe had too much to drink" she surmised
"Might as well get it in tonight tomorrow there will be no alcohol with this strict Mormon thing" Sam laughed
"You're right, goodnight babe"
"Goodnight babe" he replied kissing her head
The next morning they woke up worse for ware grateful that the wedding had been set for 4 p.m. which meant they could actually force themselves alive before they had to meet up with the parent, Artie's particularly
"God my head" Mercy said as Sam moved underneath her "I feel you have a pain that needs dealing with too" she giggled
"Mercy" he said looking around "We're in company"
"Are we?" she asked looking around to see everyone either laying looking to the heavens or sitting staring into nothingness, eventually getting up to shower and drench themselves in cologne to face the masses in the main house, eating breakfast in a fashion while listening to conversations before going to their rooms to relax and take their time getting ready.
An hour later, after Mercy's head and Sam's pain was dealt with, Sam collected their children, took them back to their room to get them washed and dressed and handed them back to the Nanny
"I feel like crap not having more time with the children but honestly, it was all I could do to keep a smile on my face I'm so damn hung over" Mercy moaned
"I know, I feel the same but like you I'm pushing through, we need to get some sleep to look half human for this wedding, Artie would never forgive us if his parents clocked on"
"You telling me I look like an alien?" she giggled before holding her head "Don't make me laugh it hurts"
"That was all you babe I was being serious" he smiled calling her to lay down "Sleep babe" he said pulling her in "No funny business" he warned
"Come on babe we've missed lunch" Mercy said rushing about "Mom is going to spit" she said as she tied her hair up "Three hours to lift off and look at my damn hair"
"Stop it. I've seen you crate a perfect do in less than 15 minutes" he laughed "Messy just had sex hair looks good on you anyway"
"Sam you're not helping" she rolled her eyes saying
"Would another crash some help?" he laughed sitting on the bed to get his shoes on
"Definitely" she smiled at him "Not"
"What is it we can and can't do at this wedding again?" he asked on a more serious note
"Well although it's not a temple ceremony, his parents still want some of the traditions kept so I guess it's basically you wear whatever you want, within reason except a tie mind, and I need to put on my long, sack with a slit for my head, no exposed skin, one good thing I get to wear purple pumps" she smiled falsely
"And you'll absolutely kill that look babe" he laughed "Come on" he said holding his hand out for her to grab, which she did
"Hello" his Mother said as they entered the main room, obviously angry at not seeing them all day "You guys getting time?" she asked cutting her eye "Don't mind me I've been well looked after by Mel and her husband" she squeezed out
"We were just coming to ask you if you wanted to come with us for a while" Mercy said taking the hint while smiling at her
"Sorry Mom you know with all this Mormon stuff everything's been cloak and dagger, we're nursing hangovers" Sam informed her as they wheeled her away
"Oh just to think about getting a damn hangover" she said "I need me a very strong drink after this last 24 hours, can we leave tonight?" she asked making Sam and Mercy laugh "seriously guys this is going to be the most challenging wedding I've ever attended, and they talk like we're intruding"
"I know, telling us what we can wear, no alcohol, dancing, music even, there was no mention of any food being provided and it's in the actual church hall, what the hell is that about?" Mercy asked as they made their way back down to the cabin "You can get a rink down here Mom" she informed her
They didn't spend too long down there apart form being super hungry they had little time to get dressed so they went back grabbed the children and went to get ready for the wedding ceremony. At 4 pm Prompt Artie and Tina walked down the aisle to some random morbid song that seeped dooms day and within the hour they were Mr & Mr Abrahams. The after, it couldn't be called a party because here were some very dry speeches, some clapping, surprisingly a meal and then goodbyes as they went off to their honeymoon. Everyone sat around talking and those that needed to went to bed with the excuse they had an early start in the morning, some actually did
'Meeting at 3 am in cabin' Santana sapped to everyone, some time late that night
"I'm not drinking anything else tonight, I've got to drive home" Sam announced as they walked into the cabin
"Everyone has to get home soon" Rachael replied "So I agree no drinking"
"It's not about drinking" Santana announced "Artie and Tina asked me to get everyone here for 3.30 am for a skype session, I know as much as you" she finished as she got the session up on their 60 inch TV on the wall, settled in and waited for the invite
"Here they are" Sugar called out as the screen flickered and Santana quickly clipped the accept button on the laptop
"Hi Guys" Tina and Artie said together waving frantically
"We're actually at a little church in Vegas" Artie informed them "Determined to get something of the actual wedding we wanted we thought we'd have a private one" he laughed as everyone looked around at each other
"Yeah we couldn't say last night because well Santana" Tina giggled
"I know how to keep a secret" she shouted
"Yeah; Artie's gonna be a baby daddy" Artie mimicked Loren saying as everyone laughed
"Wait that was you" Brittany asked
"Sorry" Santana said smiling
"I knew it" she laughed
"Anyway" Tina said "We need a wedding song to go down the aisle, you all had one"
"And we only want to see people that we actually love there so here we all are" Artie said as every girl got into cry mode and the men hug mode
"Don't start me" Tina said making everyone laugh "This is my third attempt" she said pointing at her make up
"Okay they just called us in so on the count of three everyone I want to hear you guys come out singing 'This very Moment' by Jo jo and K-Ci I don't mind taking the lead but I want to hear you guys alright?" Artie asked
"We're there bro" Puck assured him
"Mercy and Sam best Man and Matron of Honour up front please" Artie instructed before moving off towards the door behind them.
Blaine: Oh...oh...oh...oh...Yee...eee...
Artie: I can't believe it's true I'm standin' here in front of you and you are here with me
Tina: So unbelievable I'd never ever let you go, my heart is yours for keeps

As everyone looked around smiling at everyone else looking up at the screen at Artie's voice "We're the one's tying the knot here guys not you" he laughed making everyone look back at the screen "carry on" he said to the clergy standing in front of them. The service was more than normal to what they'd witnessed a few hours earlier, with cheers and kisses at the end
"Okay guys" Artie finally said after listening to comments galore "Honeymoon time and I know you guys know you're not invited to that" he smiled "Thanks Family see you all soon so much love to you all you really wouldn't know and Sam, Mercy, no more crashes" he said making everyone laugh.
