So here is another one. I hope you guys like it, I am still new at this.
Sorry for any errors, perfection is overrated.
I love the reviews guys. I can't react to some of them so I do it here. Mercedes (amber) is a very beautiful woman and she deserved all the attention. Maybe the next fic I'll do it about a confident Mercedes. Don't pin me down on it though! ;)
I love the enthusiasm of Whoknowstv. I was bouncing around like a 2 year old :D
I do not own Glee, if I did I would have made Kurtcedes a thing throughout all seasons.
Please review, I need your guys opinions.
"How do I look?" She walks down the stairs and Sam hands her his hand. She is wearing a black fitting dress, red lipstick and her curls loose. Her killer heels making her a bit taller. Her earrings dangling from her ears and a beautiful smile on her face.
"You look breathtaking." A pinch of jealousy runs through his veins, but he shrugs it off.
"Thank you." She blushes. Get it together Mercedes she thinks.
"There is just one thing missing." He smiles at her confused face. "I wanted to give you this, but there wasn't a right time for it." He hands her a black box.
"Sam… you shouldn't have." She looks at him with glassy eyes. When the box opens she gasps. "Ooh Sam it's beautiful." It contains a necklace with a music note and the letter 'M' attached to it.
"It is a thank you gift, for everything you have done for me. I know you deserve so much more, but this is a way for me to say thank you." He rubs his neck, a little nervous.
"I love it. Would you be so kind to put it on me?" She walks towards him and turns around, nearly brushing her ass against his front. "Now?" She chuckles and hands him the necklace. His fingers carefully brush her hair aside and she shivers. He smirks at her reaction and puts the necklace on gently. His hand lingers on her neck and he just wants to kiss her goosebumps away.
The doorbell rings and she squeals in excitement.
Nobody really gave her any attention especially not the opposite sex. She is more than nervous. Dating is not her forte. She opens the door and sees the smile getting bigger on his face. "Hi, Finn." She smiles back at him. He is a tall man with dark hair and brown twinkling eyes. He is well build and has a kind face. He is a friend of Tina and she hooked her up on a blind date. Well, not really blind, because she already saw a picture of him.
He gives her a quick kiss on the cheek. "Hi, Mercedes. You look incredible." He offers her his hand and she takes it. When they are almost at the car she remembers that she had a purse with her. "Wait a second." She walks back fast because of her heels she can't run.
She walks inside and sees Sam still standing in the hallway. She kisses him on his cheek. "Don't wait up babe." She winks at him and chuckles when she sees his face. Someone is jealous she thinks.
*At dinner*
Mercedes is having a lovely time. She laughs and Finn is a very nice guy. But he is not Sam her heart screams. When dessert arrives they ordered the same thing. He compliments her and she is eating it up. This kind of attention is very new to her and she is enjoying every minute of it. Finn talks about him being in college on a football scholarship. He is not very bright but is the star of the team. She listens to him with a lot of attention. Her smiling makes him slightly blush and she likes the effect she has on the man. It gives her more confidence in that she is more beautiful than she would think herself.
After a lovely first date he drives her to Sam's home. They talked about him and the situation. Finn was quite confused at seeing Sam, but she explained that it's not like that. That they are just friends and that she is taking care of him. Finn thinks that is very honorable of her.
"Thank you for the lovely evening Finn." They are now standing at the door. She smiles and he hugs her. "I had a great time too. Maybe we could do this again." He kisses her cheek again and stands straight.
"I'd like that." The porch light flickers and she rolls her eyes. "That is my que. I'll text you." She kisses him back on his cheek before entering the house. Finn smiles to himself while walking to his car.
"What the hell Evans?" She yells at the man sitting on his couch. He doesn't look up and shrugs his shoulders. She walks towards him and stands in front of him. "What is wrong with you?"
She doesn't see she is now standing in between his legs and his face gets a little red. His hands go up around her waist, careful not to touch her behind, although he wants to. He has been eating himself up all day over the fact that his best friend had a date. She never has a date, she is never interested in men. He didn't know why he was jealous, he just didn't want to share her with another guy. He doesn't want her to leave him. He knows that is selfish and he should be happy for her.
"Let go." She whispers while his head is on her belly. She always makes him feel safe and how did he make her feel. Like she was less, like she was only good enough when he needed her. He feels a tear going down his cheek. "Sam are you crying?" He shakes his head against her belly, tightening his grip around her waist.
Her hands are now on his shoulders, slowly creeping into his hair. He loves it when she does that. "Sam?" He looks up and she looks down at him. "What's wrong?" He doesn't know what to say. How can he apologize for something that he didn't even fully understand. He just wants to make her happy. Does Finn make her happy?
She crouches down so that they are face to face. "Why did you do that?" She looks for an answer in his eyes but only finds sadness.
"Do you hate me?" His question shocks her and she almost falls backward. He catches her and pulls her into his lap. She brushes his hair out of his eyes. "Of course not. Why would you think that?" Them sitting like this is nothing unusual. He is just sad Mercedes thinks.
"Because I am a terrible friend and I deserve it." He averts his gaze ashamed to look her in the eyes. With her hand she cups his chin and makes him look at her. Her eyes are now glassy and sad.
"I love you." She whispers. Their faces are so close that he moves in to close the gap. She pulls back. "No, Sam. Please don't do that again. You see me as your sister, remember? And you feel lonely right now and I want to be here for you. Just don't make me more confused than I already am."
She wants to get away from his grip but he holds her steady in his lap. She folds her hands over his on her waist. "Let go, Sam." She whispers against his temple before kissing him there.
"I can't." He looks up at her with pleading eyes. She sighs and puts her head on his. They stay like that for a while. They always did that whenever they needed their connection to be renewed or healed after a fight. But now it was because they both wanted something that they can't have.
After several minutes she squeezes his hands. She needs to get away from him or she will cave in. He smells of cologne and pure man and she inhales his hair. Why does he do this to her? Can't he see she is struggling? Why is this so hard for me she is thinking when Sam mumbles something. "What?"
"I love you too." She feels her eyes welling up at the statement. She knows he means as friends, but her heart flutters just at the thought of him actually loving her. She pulls away her head so he can look at her. "You're the only one I will ever truly love."
Her cheeks are now getting wet and he brushes his thumb over them. His hand lands behind her ear in her hair pulling her closer. Without resisting she leans in. He kisses her tenderly.
"Please, Sam don't. It's not true. You love Quinn I heard you say it. I think this was a bad idea. I need to go." She tries to wiggle out of his grip but he is not letting her. "Let me go Sam! I don't wanna lose you." Her tears are now falling again as she digs her fingernails into Sam's hands. He doesn't budge.
"What you heard was true. But what she did is enough for me to never want to see her again. It is obvious I can't trust her anymore and I can't be in a relationship with her because of it. I want to be with someone who is always there for me. Who makes me laugh and loves me with all my shortcomings." She huffs at that. "You don't have any shortcomings."
He cups both her cheeks. "Neither do you. Not in my eyes at least. What Quinn said isn't true. You are beautiful, gorgeous, amazing, kind and the best friend anyone could ask for. You could stop traffic with those smashing eyes and don't make me start talking about that heavenly ass of yours. We would be here all day. It's me who needs to be insecure. You're so perfect in everything. You dropped everything to help me out and my mom asked me if I would do the same. It was a question that has been hunting me and now I know the answer. The answer is yes Mercedes. I would do anything to see that smile again, I would—" He can't finish his sentence, because she kisses him. It's not a rushed kiss, but an assuring one.
When they part he wants more and kisses her again. He licks her lips for entrance and she pulls back. "I'm sorry." He says knowing how she is with physical contact. "No, it's okay. I just want to take it slow, if this is really happening."
He smiles at her. "Yes babe it's really happening. Do you want it to happen?" She gives him a peck on the lips. "What do you think?"
So guys what do you think of Sam's behavior? Is everything okay between them? Is Quinn going to come back? So many questions and only I have the answers. *evil laugh*
Just kidding guys, I love your support. Thanks for reading and stay safe!
