So with this story, I am having a bit of writer's block. So I don't know when the next update will be, but just know this story will get finished one way or another. Enjoy lovebugs. ;)
When Sam Evans woke up at three in the morning he officially began his day. His alarm goes off he curses at it but quickly turns it off so as to not disturb Mercedes's sleep. He rubs his eyes before leaving the bed and then he goes into the bathroom. He uses the toilet, brushes his teeth, and washes his face. Then he gets dressed in his gym clothes and heads down to the gym across the street. He works out and doesn't come back to the condo until five, and by that time Mercedes is already in the bathroom turning on the shower.
Without her noticing, he slips off his sweaty clothes and goes into the bathroom with his girlfriend. They lather each other up and squeeze in a quickie before they so desperately have to get out of the shower if they want to make it work on time.
Sam dressed in a grey turtleneck, and grey overcoat and placed on his silver watch. Mercedes dressed in her grey pantsuit and just finished putting her hair in a high ponytail. The two made it downstairs to the kitchen both grabbing their mugs of coffee.
"What do you have today?" Sam questioned.
"I have some paperwork to fill out at the club, then I have to do my routine check-in, why?"
"Dad, texted me this morning and he wants us to come over and visit for dinner," Sam answered.
"We can go but we can't stay long I promised Santana I would come back to the gentleman's club at night," Mercedes answered.
"Why are you going back tonight?"
"Apparently the girls need me to handle the men, some of them have been getting a little too comfortable, so I have to handle that," Mercedes answered.
"Ahh, ok well I will let them know. I will see you beautiful later. I love you," Sam said. He stood up and walked over to Mercedes and gave her some sweet pecks on the lips.
"I love you too," She replied. Then Sam grabbed his stuff and headed out the door to his restaurant.
When Sam made it to his restaurant his best friends Artie and Puck were already setting it up. He walked in and started helping them with their tasks.
"What up Evans," Puck greeted him.
"Sup Puckerman,"
"How is my lovely lady doing?" Artie questioned.
"Artie, Mercedes is my girlfriend," Sam replied.
"And she is going to be my wife the minute you fuck it up," Artie jabbed. Sam rolled his eyes at his friends' antics.
"Don't let your girl Kitty here you say that," Sam replied.
"Oh please, Kitty knows what is up, so how did the meeting go with Will and Ken?"
"It was solid they both agreed on their terms, Ken should be gone, and Will, well we haven't heard anything from him so maybe he does care about his wife," Sam replied honestly.
"I can believe hot mama found out that he was a regular at the club though, that's kind of offputting isn't it," Puck added.
"What do you mean Puck?"
"Well, if he is a regular at the club, and he continues to go at the club won't you be worried about Mercedes's safety, I mean he can get to her can't he?" explained Puck.
"Mercedes's being the owner of the club is strictly anonymous, as far as most people know she is the head lady who works under a boss who barely shows up. And two if Will truly was a dumbass then and only then would he ever think about harming Mercedes. So with that being said you two get this place cleaned up, we open in an hour," Sam replied as he headed down to the speakeasy.
"Sir yes sir," Artie laughed. Sam rolled his eyes as he made it down to the speakeasy. In the speakeasy, there was a closet and in that closet hidden in the far back was a safe that Sam kept all his valuables in. He entered the lock and pulled out the small ring box. Inside held the lavender trillion engagement ring. He was ready to pop the big question to Mercedes, it was all just a matter of timing. He needed everything to be perfect, and he knew that time was coming sooner than later. He placed the ring safely in his pocket before locking the safe back up and heading back upstairs.
He was going to make Mercedes Jones his wife, and nothing was going to stop him. Hopefully.
When Mercedes Jones arrived to work she headed straight for her office to put her things and boot up her computer. When that was finished she did her routine check-up. The daytime girls typically didn't have much to do, because in the day the customers were mostly old men who wanted to talk for a couple of grand, and men who just wanted someone's breast up against their chest as they started day-drinking.
She headed to the women's locker room, where Santana, Quinn, and Brittany were there counting their money and putting on their uniforms.
"Hi Mercy," They greeted as a trio.
"Hi my Unholy Trinity, so tell me what I need to know?" She replied sweetly.
"Well, a lot of the old guys keep paying extra, they are so sweet by the way. Some of the new girls are starting to get catty with each other causing some slight tensions," Quinn answered.
"Give me a list of names and I'll handle it," Mercedes said.
"Lord Tubbington says there is going to be bad times before the good times," Brittany said.
"Tell him I said thank you for his warm words of wisdom," Mercedes remarked.
"Some of the guys are becoming a bit too handsy especially with newbies, the security guards have been handling it though so that is great. Um, Will however he keeps on making some of the girls uncomfortable and we think it is time we officially banned him," Santana commented.
"I figured as much, alright I start the necessary paperwork and hopefully Will will just leave it all alone, alright thanks girls I will see you all later tonight, oh Satan do you still need me to come in tonight?"
"Actually, I think we should be ok, just make sure there are lots of security on staff tonight please?"
"I will, alright see you guys later," Mercedes replied as she walked out and headed back to her office.
When she made it back she pulled Will's membership status and sent an email letting him know that he was no longer allowed to be in or around the club, and if anyone was to find out that broke the rules the police would be involved. Then she texted Sam to let him know that they could stay at his parent's longer than originally anticipated. Everything was going smoothly today.
Will had just pulled up his email and saw the message from Luxe, and to say he was pissed was an understatement, but he couldn't let that affect him now. He had a mission to do. When he saw Mercedes and Sam leave their home he snuck in started placing cameras all around the apartment. If his plan of weakening Sam Evans was going to work then he needed the proper equipment. He placed cameras in the bedroom, the living room, and the kitchen before he snuck back out of the apartment and waited.
He was about to fall asleep when he heard movement from the front door and entered Mercedes. Sweet and innocent Mercedes. To Will, Mercedes was a special kind of gal hell he wouldn't have minded seeing her at the gentleman's club, but alas that wasn't reality. He watched her walk into her bedroom with Sam and strip down to her underclothes which made him have to readjust himself as she went and picked out a different set of clothes.
He was nearing the end of giving up on his willpower and enjoying himself when Sam walked through the door and went straight to the bedroom. He gave Mercedes a kiss before picking her up and pinning her against the wall. That should have been Will. He should have been the wall making Mercedes call out his name. He became so furious that he slammed the laptop shut and punched his steering wheel. He was going to be able to watch any more of this. However, he had to keep reminding himself that if everything was going to go his way then he had to make the hard decisions.
If he wanted Mercedes Jones as bad he did he was going to have to get Mercedes Jones. By. Any. Means. Necessary.
"Does my hair look ok," Mercedes asked Sam as she looked up at him after they had arrived at his parent's ranch.
"You look fine, I promise, come on let's go I am starving," Sam replied as he got out of the car.
"I bet you are," Mercedes joked. She got out of the car and walked with Sam to the front door where Dwight and Mary already were.
"Hi kiddos," Mary greeted them as they made their way through the house.
"Hi momma," Mercedes replied as she gave the older woman a hug and did the same with Dwight.
"Mercedes you must come to the kitchen with him and help me out dear," Mary replied as she tugged Mercedes into the kitchen.
"What about us Mary?" Dwight called out.
"Go to the man cave Dwight," She yelled back.
"Yeah, c'mon I want to show you something in private anyway," Sam laughed. He and his father made walked to the man cave which was all the way in the back of the house. They shut the door and headed to the cushy leather seats that Dwight had picked out that turned towards the t.v.
"So what do you want to show me?" Dwight questioned. Without saying a word Sam pulled out the ring box and popped open the lid showcasing it to his father.
"You are going to propose? Today?" Dwight said quietly.
"No not yet, but I wanted you to see the ring, dad I am ready for her to be my wife, I just don't know when to propose. When did you propose to mom?"
"Oh son, I proposed to her after I won an election in politics, I knew if she could withstand the mudslinging, and constant media attention and still love me for who I am flaws and all that she was the one. I planned the perfect dinner, and then I popped the question. Just know that when you decided to propose to Mercedes it should be special." Dwight said.
Sam took everything his father said into consideration and he knew he was right. Mercedes was a special girl and she deserved a special proposal.
