"Hey mama!" Mercedes whispered into the phone as she stepped out of the bedroom where Sam was asleep.

"Did I wake you, Mercedes? It's only nine o'clock!" her mother exclaimed in shock. Normally Mercedes would have been up but after long lovemaking sessions with Sam they were both tired and spent. Of course, she would never tell her mother that especially since her mother had no idea that she was already seeing someone else.

"No mama, you didn't wake me…well not exactly." She replied as she stepped into the bathroom and closed the door.

"Oh ok good. Your father and I were just out and about and we bumped into Finn." Mercedes rolled her eyes and took a seat on her toilet bracing herself for whatever her mother was about to tell her. "He looked so sad. It's obvious the poor boy misses you. I just can't understand why you can't just take him back."

"It's not for you to understand…all you have to do is respect it!"

"I'm sorry, Mercedes, but you know he loves you. He's a good man and yeah he made a mistake…"

"He cheated on me numerous times and lied every chance he got, Mama! That is no mistake. That is a choice! He chose to cheat! He chose to lie! And I have the right to choose not to deal with that!" Mercedes replied firmly. She loved her mother but sometimes she gave her the worst advice ever.

"Mercedes, you think you're the only woman who's ever married a cheating lying man?" her mother laughed and continued. "We all end up marrying a lying cheating man, one way or another! It's part of their nature to prey on the next willingly available woman. What matters is who he comes home to and he is choosing to come home to you every day for the rest of his life!" her mother added. All this did was made Mercedes sad. She never thought of her father as being unfaithful. Sure he was always gone, working long hours and going to dentist conventions but she never thought he was cheating on her mother. She couldn't believe how naïve she had been to have not ever considered the fact that her father might have been stepping out on her mother.

"I deserve better than that, mom, and you do too!" she replied getting up and walking to the door. She opened it and looked over at Sam as he slept. Sure, he had his issues. She knew all about his urges. But, unlike Finn he told her everything. At that point, they had been secretly seeing each other for a month by then. Despite the warning from Blaine, Mercedes had decided to throw caution to the wind and allow herself to enjoy Sam's company. Although they were dating secretly, they did however go on dates as a normal couple would. In the meantime, she did convince him to continue seeing Blaine to deal with another issue of his, the relationship issue between his mother and himself. Sam agreed to continue seeing Blaine but only because he wanted to have an excuse to sneak upstairs after every session and spend the rest of his lunch with her in her office. Mercedes remembered sending Marley out to lunch every time Sam would come over and they would enjoy each other in her office anyway they could.

"You can't get no better than what we have, baby! Your father is a good man, he takes care of home. We never go without and I know Finn will provide the same for you."

"Mom, I can provide for myself. I don't need a man to do that for me. And I have found someone better who I believe will love me how I deserve to be loved and I know I can trust him." Mercedes responded. Although Sam hadn't expressed that he loved her, she could tell that he did by his actions. With Finn, she was always wondering who was he with, what was he doing, why was his phone screen locked. With Sam, it was different. He was always on time for their dates. And just a few moments ago, he allowed her to answer his phone while he showered. Sure it was his mother but Finn would never allow her to touch his phone. Joan was excited to hear Mercedes answering the phone and took the opportunity to confirm she was coming for the reception. Mercedes was shocked as well at how excited she was about going to see the Evans' family this time around.

"My poor child, how in the world do you know this man loves you when you just met him unless you have had this man on the side while you were with Finn. Were you cheating on Finn with this guy?"

"No!"

"Then there's no way he already loves you in such short time."

"Love knows no time, ma!" Mercedes replied smiling as she remembered Joan's words.

"Sure it does and in short time it will show you that it does." Joan replied. Mercedes frowned and shook her head as she looked at her phone. There was no way that she could explain her relationship with Sam to her mother. She would never understand.

"Ma, I gotta go…I love you and kiss daddy for me too."

"Hmmph, I will…I love you too." Mercedes crossed her arms and leaned against the door feeling relieved that she finally found the courage to tell her mother about Sam.

Sam started to stir as he felt the side of the bed next to him was cold. With his eyes closed he placed his hand on the bed and then turned his head both ways then stopped when he noticed her leaning up against the wall. Slumping back down on the bed, he waved her over then looked back up when he noticed she wasn't moving.

"What are you doing all the way over there?" he asked sitting up and opening his arms to her. She smiled and then walked over to him slowly. He wrapped his arms around her midsection then hugged her tight as if he never wanted to let her go. Mercedes giggled then ran her fingers through his hair before kissing the top of it. There was nothing her mother or anyone could say that would make her leave Sam. It was too late; she had completely fallen for him. "You feel so soft." He mumbled as he crushed his face into her tummy.

"You're just now realizing that?" she asked giggling again. Sam looked up and gave her that small grin as he moved his hands placing them behind her knees. As his hands slipped up her robe slowly Sam pulled the tie loose with his teeth allowing the robe to open displaying her naked body underneath. "Sam, we just…"

"I know." He replied cutting her off as he placed light kisses to her tummy and cupped her butt with his big strong hands pulling her to him as he laid back and allowed her to fall on him. "I just love how it feels like the first time…every time I feel you." Sam looked into her eyes and noticed she was looking at him in a way he never noticed before and he loved it. He wanted to tell her then that he loved her then but remembered that she wanted to take things slow. Last thing he wanted to do was say something that would scare her off. "I don't know what I would have done had I never met you…"he shook his head as he held her to him tight.

"Sam, why are you holding me so tight?" she giggled and tried to wiggle free. He looked up at her and released his grip a bit.

"I don't want to lose you." He confessed. She looked into his green eyes and could see the fear behind them. He still felt he wasn't worthy of love. He still didn't think that any woman would ever trust or love him because of his urges. He was still holding onto those insecurities and that shocked her.

"Sam, you won't lose me. I am not going anywhere." she replied and kissed him tenderly. He smiled and kissed her again then pulled back to ask her once more.

"Are you sure?"

"Trust me, Sam! I am happy right here where I am!" she smiled before kissing him once more. He held her tight once more then moved over on the bed as they cuddled.

"Okay, well I am going out to L.A. tomorrow and won't be back till Friday to seal the deal with Microsoft. I want us to go out and celebrate when I get back, if that's okay with you." He mentioned in her ear as he nibbled along her neck.

"I'll be here when you get back." She replied causing Sam to smile. Everything was going so well for him. He could almost see that he was getting everything his mother always wanted for him and he owed it all to the woman in his arms at that very moment.

"So doc, I took your advice and had a conversation with my nana finally." Santana stated before looking over to where Mercedes sat. "I also, spoke to Puck and Quinn, together."

"Oh really? Very productive month for you I assume…so how did it go?" Mercedes asked removing her glasses. She had been working on Santana's inner issues for a while and finally got her to accept the fact that her issues were more so from her than anyone else.

"Well, after I spoke to Puck and confessed my feelings to Quinn…he was upset and then asked if he could join in." she rolled her eyes and smiled. "I told him that my feelings for Quinn were more than just sexual and that I wanted to be with her, exclusively."

"What did Quinn say about this?"

"Well, she was shocked and sort of told me that she wasn't ready to commit herself to another woman. That she was enjoying being single and carefree. She explained that right now her main goal in life is to no longer chase after love but to let it come find her…" Santana rolled her eyes and shook her head. "Or some bullshit like that. Here I am, doc, telling her that I love her and I am coming to her and she is telling me some bullshit like that! I was too through, doc!"

"So, how did you feel once you were done speaking with them?"

"I took that as a sign that I was ready to speak to my nana. If I could take rejection from the only person that ever made me feel something I knew I could take whatever my nana would throw my way." She smiled proudly. "I explained to my nana that I was a proud lesbian and that I love her with all my heart and hope that she could love me unconditionally."

"I am proud of you Santana." Mercedes added genuinely.

"Yeah, well I feel it is worth it. You were right though, because once I accepted me for me she accepted me as well. She doesn't fully understand but she respects my decision and choses to love me no matter what." Mercedes was just about to ask her more questions when she heard Marley shouting and then her office door opening.

"You can't go in there!" Marley shouted as Sue walked in with a smile on her face. Mercedes was in shock seeing her and knew it couldn't be good news that she was bringing her.

"Hey there, Mercedes!" Sue said with a smile on her face.

"Ummm excuse me, old rag, but you're butting in on my time with the doctor." Santana stated standing up and crossing her arms.

"Sue, if you don't mind, I am currently busy." Mercedes stated and sighed when she saw that Sue had no intention of leaving the office.

"Actually I do mind, I am pretty sure that my tax dollars are paying for this session since Ms. Mexico here is probably here illegally or on a visa." Sue replied walking towards a seat and sitting down.

"Uh…I am an American and my parents are not from Mexico!"

"Sure you are…Mexico is part of North America." Sue continued. "But trust me; you don't want to get help for your sexual urge to hump whatever you allow to crawl between your legs from the likes of this woman. You have a better chance of receiving help from the bottom downstairs. This is ironic, because he would never be on top." She licked her lips and smiled. Mercedes could see where this was going and decided to end the session with Santana early. Last thing she wanted was for Sue to start spreading rumors and causing her to lose out clients.

"Look, Santana, how about I reschedule you for tomorrow?" She stood and walked her to the door where Marley stood shaking with fear. "Marley, it's okay, I will deal with this."

"I can't do tomorrow, doc, I have a commercial for yeast-a-stat to do in New York."

"I knew I recognized that face." Sue mumbled under her breath.

"Well, I will let Marley see what day and time you will be available and we can finish this conversation then. This session will be considered free since it was interrupted." She added glaring over at Sue. Santana smiled and rolled her eyes at Sue and then proceeded to follow Marley as Mercedes closed the door behind her. "Why are you here, Sue? I don't see any flowers in your hands so I know you didn't come baring gifts from Sam to me, seeing as he fired you." Mercedes smiled and leaned on her desk.

"Good one…I guess I deserve that…but in a way I did come with a gift for you."

"A gift for me? From who this time?" she really had no interest in whatever gift Sue had for her and noticing that she only had a folder in hand made her care even less.

"I don't know let's just say from me. Let's just say I am giving you the opportunity to keep your license and business running. Let's just say I come baring gifts of business." She looked up and smiled as she noticed the smile on Mercedes face fade away.

"You're wasting your time because Sam is no longer a patient of mine, so we pose no threat to anything at the moment." She replied nervously. "Sam has now been with Dr. Anderson on the third floor for almost a month now."

"Oh yes…the bottom…great suggestion by the way." Sue laughed. "There's no way he'd want to hump that, but he has been humping something else anyway right? You've been helping him suppress his urges in a different way other than prescribing him medication."

"That is none of your business and I couldn't share that information with you if I wanted to or not."

"Well it doesn't matter if you share it with me or not. I know what you both have been doing and since you're the reason he fired me…"

"No Sue, you're the reason he fired you, because you don't know how to mind your business. Sort of like, right now!" Mercedes reminded her.

"Be that as it may, but I have never been the type to lie down and take a licking without a plan of revenge and I have come to execute it today."

"Aren't you a little…well scratch that…you're way too old to be playing games with people, Sue."

"I resent that, I am only 29, so I think I am at the ripe age to just begin playing games with people." She retorted. Mercedes rolled her eyes because she knew for a fact the woman was old enough to be her grandmother. "Now, I am sure you've heard of Finn Hudson hiring me as his lawyer after Sam fired me."

"Wait what?" Mercedes never heard that. Honestly, she was so nestled up with Sam that she couldn't remember the last time she watched the news or heard from Finn at all.

"No time to wait, Nicki Minaj, we're working on slim time here." She walked over and handed her a folder. "I have helped Finn Hudson get a deal with BET to film a reality TV show about the two of you on the road to marriage. Granted, since he is only 1/16th black and you being full black, he needs you in order to be on the show."

"Finn is not black Sue." Mercedes rolled her eyes as she flipped through the pages on the contract. "And I am not participating on that show." She couldn't believe Finn put her name on the paper as his fiancée and lied about being biracial.

"1/16th Mercedes, keep up with me. I did an ancestor search on the Hudson's and found that one of his grand pappy's had a thing for the ebony punanny, if you catch my drift." She smiled then stopped when she noticed Mercedes wasn't smiling back. "Anyway, you will do the show because you don't want to lose your license and you don't want Sam to lose out on the deal with Microsoft."

"What does any of this have to do with Sam and his deal with Microsoft?" Mercedes could feel her heart racing as she thought of losing her license but she knew how much Sam was looking forward to this deal with Microsoft.

"Well, I don't know if you know but I am the reason he got the deal to begin with. His issue with Penny could be brought to the public if you for any reason decide to not sign this contract or tell him of my little visit today." She warned.

"They can't pull out of the deal; Sam is over there now getting things started with Microsoft." Mercedes replied. Sue was in shock that things were moving faster than she thought they would but she didn't want Mercedes to know that she didn't know about him being out of town.

"The information I have will make Microsoft pull out faster than a teenage boy on prom night!" She watched as Mercedes thought about what she was just told and then walked over to her placing her arm around her shoulders. "You know, I hate doing this to a fellow sista, but it had to be done. Trust me; I am doing you a favor. The relationship between the two of you would have never worked out anyway." She gave Mercedes a pat on the back and then walked over to her to the door. "I'll be expecting that signed by close of business today." She smiled and then walked out of the door.

Once Sue was gone, Mercedes looked down at the contract that was in her hand and then shook her head. No matter what choice she made, someone was going to get hurt. If she didn't sign the contract, she'd lose most of her clients, possibly her license and Sam would lose out on the deal with Microsoft. She couldn't do that to him. Now if she signed the contract Sam would most definitely be hurt by this. She walked over to her desk and picked up her phone and dialed the number of the only person she knew that could help her figure it all out or at least let her cry it out.

"Dang Bitch, where you been hiding at?" Unique exclaimed on the phone then paused when she heard a sniffle coming from Mercedes. "Wait; hold up, does Unique hear sniffles?"

"Unique….I…really…screwed up this time. I really screwed up!"
