So, this little one shot is inspired by Chord's new song - Cold Feet. A nice and lovely song that reminds me that I am still single, but totally suit my OTP - Samcedes. So, if you haven't listened to it, please do.
The loud thunder woke Sam up in the middle of the night. He squinted his eyes as he felt Mercedes snuggled closer to him, resting her cold feet on his own. He chuckled at her action as he pulled her closer to him – warming her body up against his. He smiled at her beautiful sleeping face. A thought suddenly appeared in his mind. He reached for the bedside drawer and took out his torn-out lyrics book. Using the light from his phone, he started jotting down some lyrics.
Hey, meet me at the lake
Mercedes stared at the cryptic message as she typed a reply.
Why?
Seconds later, a reply came.
Just come
Rolling her eyes, she gave herself a once over before deeming that she looked decent. She grabbed her keys and got into the car – driving to the lake. When she arrived at the lake, she saw Sam's truck was parked there. Mercedes got out from her car and locked it before she walked to their spot. She frowned when she saw Sam standing there – alone with his guitar.
"Sam?" she started. Sam raised up his finger as he silently asked her to listen. He started strumming the guitar and his sweet voice serenaded her.
Under these sheets
Thunder and lighting
Keeping us awake
Makes me love the rain
Little shivers
Turn to whispers
Will you keep me warm
Hiding from the storm
If you get cold feet
In the middle of the night
I'll always be there
If you wanna get cozy
Just put em on right on mine
Cause darling I'm right there
You love questions
Where we're headed
Somewhere down the road
All the places that we'll go
Saying shyly
Will you still like me
In 100 years
If we're both still here
If you get cold feet
100 years from now
I'll always be there
If you still want me
In another 100 years
Baby I'll be there
Standing up here waiting on you
Nervous
Just to make it last forever girl
If you get cold feet
In the middle of the aisle
I'm standing right here
Yeah if you get cold
And you heart is running wild
Just know that I'm right there
As Sam finished his last note, he looked at her before he took out a tiny box from his pocket and kneeled down on his knee.
"So, baby. If you still want me in 100 years, I'll always be there. So, why don't we make it official? Will you marry me?"
"Yes! Let's be together forever!" Mercedes nodded as she wiped her tears. Sam put on the ring on her. He kissed her and hugged her before he twirled her around.
"I love you, Mercedes Jones soon to be Evans!"
"I love you too, Samuel Evans!"
Sam looked at his reflection in the mirror. He adjusted his silver tie and his white suits. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly – calming his nerves. His hand reached for the small box on the dresser – a gift from his bride. He opened it and saw that it was a watch. He took it out of the small box and saw the inscription behind it.
'I'll always be there
Love, M.
He smiled at it as he took off the watch that he was wearing and put on his new one. He then reached for his phone and typed something. As soon as he sent the text, Mike came in and told him that it was time. He gave himself another once over and followed his best man out of the room.
The phone chimed and Mercedes took it. A smile appeared on her beautiful face as she saw that it was Sam's.
If you get cold feet
In the middle of the aisle
I'm standing right here -waiting for you at the end of the aisle.
She shook her head at the message and began to reply to it before her dad knocked on the door. He opened the door and let himself in – admiring her looks.
"It's time, baby girl" Mr Jones said. Mercedes nodded. She gave the phone to Tina as her bridesmaid helped straightened her veil before they took their places. As she stood next to her father, waiting for her turn to walk, Mercedes took a deep breath and let it out slowly. A wide smile on her face as she started walking towards her waiting groom.
"I now pronounced you husband and wife! You may now kiss the bride!"
As soon as the priest announced it, Sam pulled Mercedes to him and kissed her. Once the kiss ended, they looked at each other eyes – wide smiles on their face.
"Hi, Mrs Evans" Sam whispered.
"Hello, Mr Evans" Mercedes replied, also in whispered. They turned around to look at their guests – each of them having a wide smile on their faces – beaming with happiness for the married couple.
I do hope you guys enjoy it. I wrote this in 30 minutes since I was doing some work and was listening to Cold Feet. The song somehow just gave me the inspiration. On other note, I bought the looped VIP ticket and Chord finally knew my that I'm exist! LOL. Joke aside, he was sweet and I was behaving like a fool because I was too nervous. Watching the clip make me cringe at my behaviour *facepalm*
And, Amber is engaged!
