Chapter 15: You're Still The One by Yinx
The couple had wasted no time in to know each other again. Sam made her straddle him. The poof of her ivory gown wasn't going to get in the way of him loving her. Careful not to give her hickies on her neck and chest he stuck to her lips which were just as dandy in his book.
"Mrs. Evans"
"Yes, Sam" she moan as Sam's hands wandered over her breasts.
"Nuttin I just can't stop myself from calling you that" he groaned into her lips; her hands gently rubbing the bugle growing in his pants and started to unbuckle his belt. "Stop, Woman" he said grabbing her hands.
"Why" she whimpered backing out of his kiss and looking at him.
"One the first time I make love to you as my wife won't be in a car we'll save that for the honeymoon. Two once I start I won't be stopping for a long time, Babe, no holds bar remember" he said putting his hand in the nap of her neck and pulling her down to his lips again.
"Fine" she giggled; she kept her hands on his chest for now.
They were sitting in the town car in the parking lot of Lima, Ohio botanical gardens. Kurt had taken a sleeping Simeon and had told them to wait twenty minutes for the rest of the wedding party to arrive for pictures.
"Mercedes" he whisper breaking her kiss and looking up her.
"Yes" she answered smiling down at him softly stroking his cheek.
"Can we make a vow right now" he asked.
"Sure, Baby" she grinned at him.
"I vow from this day forward to love and respect you, to love and treasure our child and future children, to always tell you the truth with love, to support you and your dreams. I vow all these things and more to you Mercedes".
Mercedes couldn't even see straight for all tears. She felt Sam kiss them away. "Ditto, Samuel Evans, and I vow to you to focus on love, joy and happiness of our marriage, to remember that what matters in life is our love for each other, to celebrate every moment we have together as our last, and that you will always be my kindred spirit" she smiled at him.
"Ditto, Mercedes Evans" he said cupping her face and kissing her softly.
Mercedes laid her head on his chest and wrapped her arms around him. She felt him kiss the top of her head as he pulled her close; both listening to each breathing, and being happy that they had finally made it.
Kurt tapped on the window five minutes later waking the couple from their cuddling bliss. They met the party a few minutes later in what looked like a scene from the Secret Garden. Mrs. Evans handed a fussy Simeon to his mother where he calmed down as she wiped his tear-stained face.
"He really did miss you last week" Sam whispered as the photographer told them where to stand.
"Poor Lit Bit" Mercedes cooed softly as Simeon laid his head on her chest and I think it's time for a nap too.
They posed for pictures for the next twenty minutes first with the whole party then just the parents then each set, then just their friends and finally just them and Simeon who was asleep. Sam handed him off to grandfather, Mr. Jones as he hurried back to pose with his wife.
The reception area was decorated with touches of Kurt everywhere he even added crepe paper streamers over the bride and groom table. The couple sat between their parents as they ate their dinner. Sam had pulled her chair closer to him as she feed him from her plate and she from his. They snuggled close as the crowd started clinking their glasses. The couple kissed as commanded.
The DJ came up to the mic, "Okay welcome everyone to celebrate the joining of Sam and Mercedes Evans. Let's get started with a little Father/Daughter moment, Mr. Jones"
Mercedes looked down the table at her father as he got up at went to the mic.
"Hey Baby Girl" he said "Um, this is from your mother and I." He cleared his throat. "I guess I'll start with you Samuel Evans". Mercedes felt Sam tense a bit. "There is no easy way to say this… I hate you."
The room went silent as Mercedes and Sam glanced at each other.
"Yeah I hate you. I hate that you took my Little Princess away from me" Mr. Jones continued. "I hate that I'm not the only man in her life. I hate that instead of me she will depend on you. I hate that she isn't my Baby Girl anymore, she's mother and a wife now." Mr. Jones wiped a tear from his face. "But I know that she loves you dearly and that and that alone is why I can accept you, and would love to welcome you to my family. Mercedes I am so proud of you and I know that you have found your prince. I wish you both the best and long happy years together" He stepped away from mic to a wave of applause.
Mercedes got up went over to her father and hugged him "Thank you Daddy" she whispered.
"I think it's time for the father/daughter dance" the DJ said and started playing the famous Bob Carlisle song as Mr. Jones sang it to his daughter.
Mr. Jones led his daughter out onto the dance floor. Sam watched them beaming from ear to ear. He was very thankful that Mr. Jones had given him the go ahead, before it was like Mrs. Jones was twisting his arm. The song ended soon after and Mr. Jones returned Mercedes to her seat. Sam stood and held out his hand for a shake but Mr. Jones gave him a strong hug instead. Sam sat back down and wiped tears from his wife's cheeks; he kissed her softly as he linked their fingers together.
Puck stood up and walked up to the speaker podium "Okay so Kurt told me it's time for toasts from the wedding party, so here I go" he cleared his voice "So to Sexy Mama looking fly as always" Mercedes shook her head as Sam pulled her closer to him "You found yourself a good guy in Sam and Sam treat her right or else you can come and slushie your ass with blue-raspberries if you don't" he grinned at them as he chugged his beer.
Sam raised his glass of water at him as Puck stepped down and the band began to play and he and Lauren got up on stage.
This is our dedication song to you, Sexy Mama. He began to play his guitar.
Puck:
"She's so big hearted,
but not so remarkable
just an ordinary humble girl
expecting nothing as we're made to think
its a pretty person's world"
Lauren:
"But you are beautiful and you better go show it
go look again, you gotta be true to your own
if you really wanna go to the top
do you really wanna win?
don't believe in living normal, just to satisfy demand"
Puck and Lauren:
"Well if you wanna get free
and if you wanna do the passionate thing
and if you wanna get smart for the sake of your heart
you should own your name and stand up tall
and get real and see the beauty in ugly
Lauren took Mercedes hand and led her back on the dance floor where they were joined by Santana, Brittany, Kurt, Tina and Rachel.
Puck:
well you are fresh, you're face is fabulous
don't forget you're one of a kind
when nobody is checking the deeds you've done
and nobody is hearing your cries
you make all of the fashion statements
just by dressing up your mind
Puck and Lauren:
well if you wanna get free
and if you wanna do the passionate thing
and if you wanna get smart for the sake of your heart
you should own your name and stand up tall
and get real and see the beauty in ugly
and see the beauty in ugly
Puck, Lauren, Santana and Brittany:
well if you wanna get free
and if you wanna do the passionate thing
and if you wanna get smart for the sake of your heart and oh
you should own your name and stand up tall
and get real and see the beauty in ugly
see the beauty in a ugly
The guest cheered and hollered as the song ended. The DJ began to play Nelly's Shake Yo Tail-feather and the rest of the wedding party and some guest came out onto the dance floor. Sam and his best friend Skye talked as watched his wife dance with her friends.
"Everything is set for tonight" Skye smiled at him.
"You're the best friend any guy could ask for" Sam beamed hugging her.
"Excuse me…um… hi my name is Finn Hudson" he tapped the mic. "Um I've been Sam and Mercedes' friend for a long time…er… I would like to say that I'm truly happy for you two. Now Sam if you permit me can I have a dance with your wife"?
Mercedes glanced at Sam who nodded at Finn. The music started and Finn began to sing.
"We are standing at the crossroads
And now it's time
For you to go your way
And me to go mine
I will pray the Lord
Will keep you safe
I know HE will because you will always be"
Finn walked off stage over to Mercedes and took her in his arms for the last time. This was his last time he would be able to hold her like he always wanted to. He smiled down at her and continued.
"My friend
We have been through so much
And you have been my Godsend
With your sure and steady love
My friend
You know I will be there
If you ever need
'Cause you've always
Been a friend to me"
Sam felt a twig of jealously watching his wife dance with Finn but he brushed it away Mercedes was his there was no reason for him to worry.
"I may travel the world over
But one thing I know for sure
One day this road will lead me
Back 'round to your door
I will pray the Lord
Will keep you safe
Some bonds are just too strong
To break in the end"
Sam was surprised when Finn waved him over. He took Finn's place and wrapped his arms around his wife. The couple watched Finn go back up to the stage and finished the song.
"Nothing will change the way
I feel about you
Not the miles or the years
Or the place this life takes me to"
Finn watched his love turn her attention from him to her husband. As he sang the last few words tears stung in his eyes. He saw them kiss he gave a small smile wishing them luck and walked off the stage. The DJ started a melody of songs starting with Dance, Dance which Blaine sung too.
The wedding was off and jumping the couple separated Sam talking to some of his teammates and Mercedes off on the dance floor. Sam checked up on her every few minutes but his last glance she was nowhere to be seen. He excused himself and went around asking where she was.
"We have a special presentation for the groom by his lovely wife" the DJ said as Mercedes voice came over the speakers; Rachel, Kurt, and Tina singing backup.
"Samuel Beck Evans when we first met I didn't know that I had met the One I'm supposed to live out the rest of my live with. We had our ups and we have had our downs and after all the time together and apart. You are still the One I love."
"Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong"
The crowd on the dance floor parted and made a way for Sam to see his wife. She had changed out of her poofy wedding gown to a simple cream springtime dress; her hair was down and in a curly side ponytail. She held hands with a now woke Simeon.
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'
Mercedes knelt down and pointed Simeon's dad out in the crowd and he ran to him. Sam scooped Simeon up in his arms and kissed his cheek.
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
Mercedes hand the mic off to Blaine; she, her husband, and son began to dance in their own little world as she finished the song.
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
Sam bent down and kissed his wife "You're still my one too" he whispered smiling.
"Alright you two enjoy the rest of your party" Mrs. Jones smiled taking Simeon and giving the baby a toy. "I'll see you tonight" she kissed their cheeks. Mr. Jones and the Evans were right behind her and they said their goodbyes as well.
"Now that the Rents are gone let's get this party started" Puck yelled into the mic. "Sam come on up".
Sam kissed Mercedes cheek and went up on stage taking his jacket off as he went. He rolled up his sleeves and took the guitar Puck handed him. "Thanks everyone for coming out and supporting us on our wedding day. It really means a lot. Now come on Diva let's bring the house down" he winked at her as he, Puck whistling, started playing guitar and Finn on the drums.
Sam:
"OH!
Just shoot for the stars
If it feels right
Then aim for my heart
If you feel like
And take me away
Make it OK
I swear I'll behave"
Mike started dancing with Mercedes; the latter trying to keep up with the awesome dance moves.
"You wanted control
So we waited
I put on a show
Now I'm naked
You say I'm a kid
My ego is big
I don't give a shit!
And it goes like this."
Sam, Puck, Finn:
"And it goes like this
Take me by the tongue
And I'll know you
Kiss me 'til you're drunk
And I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I don't need to try to control you
Look into my eyes
And I'll own you with them
Moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger"
Puck: Jumping off stage and gyrated with his wife while he sang.
"Maybe it's hard
When you feel like
You're broken and scarred
Nothing feels right
But when you're with me
I'll make you believe
That I've got the key
Oh
So get in the car
We can ride it
Wherever you want
Get inside it
And you want to steer
But I'm shifting gears
I'll take it from here
And it goes like this"
Mike danced Mercedes up on stage where Sam handed her the mic and she danced with him.
Mercedes:
You wanna know
How to make me smile
Take control
Own me not only for the night
And if I share my secret
You're gonna have to keep it
Nobody else can see this
So watch and learn
I won't show you twice
Head to toe
OOOH Baby rub me right
But if I share my secret
You're gonna have to keep it
Nobody else can see this
Sam, Mercedes, Puck, Finn:
"And it goes like this
Take me by the tongue
And I'll know you
Kiss me 'til you're drunk
And I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I don't need to try to control you
Look into my eyes
And I'll own you with them
Moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger"
The couple had everyone up on the dance floor. Kurt doing his sexy dance to Blaine's drunk one. Brittany and Santana making out while dancing. Artie and Quinn chair dancing. The song ended with a deep kiss from the wedded couple; Sam escorted his wife down from stage as the DJ spun records from Adele to Robin Thicke to Beyonce's Diva. When Kelly Rowland's Motivation Mercedes found herself in a dark corner of the room straddled on Sam's lap.
Sam kissed his wife hard "I can't wait to get you on our honeymoon" he mumbled against her lips as his hands went from her hips to squeezing her butt.
Mercedes moaned "Me neither" as Sam's lips went from hers to her neck and collarbone.
Mercedes head fell back as one of his hands cupped her breast and pinched the nipple to life. Sam sucked on it through the thin fabric. Mercedes gave soft whimper as he did the same to its twin. Sam cupped her chin and brought her lips back to his again.
"Whoa, bad timing"
The couple broke the kiss to find Finn looking everywhere but at them. Mercedes started laughing as she moved off Sam and they stood up.
"Kurt told me to tell you that it's time for you guys to go" Finn said blushing.
Mercedes kissed his cheek. "Thank you, Finn" she smiled up at him then taking her husband's hand lead him back out to the party.
Mercedes threw the bouquet and Brittany caught it.
"I guess that means I have to marry the Cat Lady" Santana smiled kissing her girlfriend.
"Another wedding" Kurt clapped his hands.
Sam and Mercedes said goodbye to their friends and got into the town car.
"Thank you Samwise for letting me have my day, what can I expect on our honeymoon" Mercedes asked snuggling close.
Sam lifted her face so he could look at her. "You can expect a few surprises, and not leaving the bed for at least three days" he grinned down at her.
Mercedes kissed him softly smiling "Can't wait"
