A/N: Thank you for the feedback. Also a quick note, I love both Blainchel and Samchel. I do not want to start any bashing or ship wars. You are all open to ship which team you like better. I just wanted to add some drama and angst to the story. So Blaine may seem a bit OCC. He's actually a great character, as is Sam. My otp for Rachel is Sebastian, but I think it's fun to see her paired with other characters instead of always Jesse or Finn (love both as well). I may keep Rachel with Sam for awhile but my goal is Blainchel. Although you never know what happens. Would you like a happy Blainchel or both just walk away?
I'll be updating The Perfect You sometime this weekend, I can't abandon Sebastian and Rachel. Lol.
Disclaimer: I don't own Glee, characters, or song lyrics.
A few weeks have passed since the last Rachel had spent time alone with Blaine aside from rehearsals. Both were professional enough to not let their differences interfere with the musical. Plus no one else could play her Tony.
She missed Blaine, She really did, and hopes someday soon he will wake up and realize what's in front of him. And perhaps he won't. She can't make him love her the way she wants him to. But she won't be anyone's home wrecker either. He says he loves her, but let's be honest, he has a weird way of showing it. If he truly wants Rachel, he will need to prove it to her.
In the meantime, Rachel has been hanging out with Sam lately. He is so sweet, and she has noticed that Quinn, Santana, and even Mercedes dishing evil glares at her and whispering. Guess they don't believe Samchel would work or not. And for once Rachel didn't care what they think. They didn't work out with Sam, and maybe she has a chance. She doesn't know who she's meant to be with. But isn't this the time when she should sate before settling down with one guy?
Sam arrived a half hour later for their date. Rachel was dressed in skinny jeans, a v neck sweater that accentuated her curves, and left her hair down in a wave of curls plus light makeup. She grabbed her coat, purse, money, and keys. She opened the door for Sam.
Rachel: Hi Sam.
Sam: Whoa, Rachel you look..just whoa.
Rachel: Thank you, you look nice to.
Sam: Ready for the movies?
Rachel: I am ready, so let's get going.
Sam grabbed her hand, while Rachel locked her door, and led her to the truck and helped her into the car.
Sam and Rachel drove to the movie theatre to watch Country Strong starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Tim McGraw. Rachel even noted how much Gwenyth resembled Ms. Holliday.
Rachel and Sam sang along to the songs, laughed, and Rachel even spotted a tear rolling down Sam's face. As they were leaving the theatre after the movie, Rachel turned to stroke Sam's cheek.
Rachel: Sam, are you crying?
Sam: What? No I don't cry.
Rachel: It's okay to show your sensitive side. It's attractive to me.
Sam: Really?
Rachel: Of course. I love how you can be open with me.
Sam: Same here, Rachel. Ooh my song is on the radio. I love this song. Don't freak out if I sing.
Rachel smiled. "Why would I freak out? I love your voice. It is a nice change then to always singing Bieber songs. Just like Blaine's obsession with Katy Perry.
Sam: Haha as opposed to Streisand? *teasing*
Rachel: I'm going to politely pretend you didn't just say that, Samuel Evans.
Sam hummed to the music. It was Tim McGraw's The Cowboy in Me.

"The Cowboy In Me"
I don't know why I act the way I do
Like I ain't got a single thing to lose
Sometimes I'm my own worst enemy
I guess that's just the cowboy in me
I got a life that most would love to have
But sometimes I still wake up fightin' mad
At where this road I'm heading down might lead
I guess that's just the cowboy in me
The urge to run, the restlessness
The heart of stone I sometimes get
The things I've done for foolish pride
The me that's never satisfied
The face that's in the mirror when I don't like what I see
I guess that's just the cowboy in me
The urge to run, the restlessness
The heart of stone I sometimes get
The things I've done for foolish pride
The me that's never satisfied
The face that's in the mirror when I don't like what I see
I guess that's just the cowboy in me
Girl I know there's times you must have thought
There ain't a line you've drawn I haven't crossed
But you set your mind to see this love on through
I guess that's just the cowboy in you
We ride and never worry about the fall
I guess that's just the cowboy in us all
Rachel: Flawless Cowboy Evans.
Sam: Thank you ma'am.
Sam leaned in and kissed Rachel, and she returned the kiss. It felt right. For the first time, at least for now, Rachel felt happy.
Blaine was at Scandals hanging out with Sebastian. Kurt was busy with Mercedes having a Diva night minus Rachel. Plus Kurt particularly didn't like Sebastian. Blaine wasn't in the best mood, but was glad to get out of the house. He was tired of moping. He felt like some Karaoke.
Sebastian: So Blaine, what's been going on lately? Haven't seen you online much, buddy?
Blaine: I've just had a lot going on lately, and someone on my mind.
Sebastian: Lady face Hummel?
Blaine: Kurt, Sebastian. He's still my boyfriend. But, I don't mean him.
Sebastian: Wait what? Are you cheating? What's his name?
Blaine: Well its not so much a him, but a HER.
Sebastian: Oh no don't tell me you're conflicted again? Who is it? I can't see you with Beyoncé (Mercedes), Barbie(Quinn), Satan(Santana) or Miss Fondue for 2 (Brittany). Oh shit, really, Berry?! You got the hots for Rachel?! *Sebastian's eyes widened*
Blaine: More like in love.
Sebastian: Damn, not that I blame you, because I have had a crush on her myself. How far?
Blaine: We've been together intimately. But, our situation is complicated and she's upset because she's tired of being my dirty secret. I'm with Kurt, but I love Rachel. I just have to find a way to work it out with Rachel and what to do with Kurt. I'm confused. Plus, Rachel's been going out with Sam these days.
Sebastian: Trouty mouth? Damn, there goes my shot.
Blaine: Hey, she's mine.
Sebastian: Actually she's not. At least not officially. No wonder she doesn't want you right now.
Blaine: Says the guy who is the manwhore of Dalton.
Sebastian: This is why I don't get involved in relationships, but if I ever find the one maybe I'd stop. Anyways, take a break tonight. Have fun. Get up there and sing.
Blaine nodded, and went up to the stage to sing. He waved to Sebastian to join him.

(Sebastian)
Just come on and come and
Raise your glass
...for me
The whole bar applauded, and Sebastian and Blaine laughed.
Blaine felt good at least temporarily. It took his mind off a situation he would deal with soon, just not tonight.
Blaine said goodnight to Sebastian and called for a cab. He would call Puck to see if he would pick up his car.
Blaine got in cab, and during ride home he stared at Rachel's picture. "Soon, baby, soon we will be endgame."
A/N: I hope you all liked the chapter. I'll be updating The Perfect You soon. Read & Review. Love you all.
