Chapter 16: Lifetime by Yinx


"Ready to go, Yawne" Sam asked knocking on the bathroom door in Jones home.

"I'll be right out"

Sam sighed shaking his head he laid down on her bed. He heard her come out a few minutes later. He closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. He took her in through his lashes she wore a short purple springtime dress and jeweled wedges. He caught a groan in his throat as he watched check herself out in the mirror.

She saw him laying on her bed as she set her bag down and walking over. "Sam I didn't take that long" Mercedes said poking him and seeing him smile slyly still pretending. Mercedes rolled her eyes and laid down beside him and started kissing him. "Sam I'm ready" she whispered against his lips.

"Ready for what" he asked opening one eye.

Mercedes shook her head raising herself over him "I'm ready for you to take me, Samuel Evans, no holds bar" she grinned taking his hands and slipping them under her dress.

Sam smiled up at her feeling her barely there panties he gently pinched her butt. "I promise you I will" he said giving her quick kiss as they stood up. Here he said to her giving her a blindfold.

"Um...I"

"I'd never let anything happen to you Mercedes you trust me right" he said slightly hurt that she didn't take it immediately.

"Yes of course I do" she said looking up at him.

"Okay then" he smirked smacking her on her butt "Turn around so I can put this on."

Mercedes rolled her eyes "You know when you do that it gets me wet" she said turning around.

"Shit Cede" he said tying the blindfold loosely. "Don't tell me things like that when you know I can't act on them" he growled pulling her close and letting one hand pulled up her dress and the other entered her panties feeling that she was right. He felt her hand palm his crotch arousing him.

"Can we have a little quickie" she asked unzipping his pants and reaching inside.

"We can't, Love" he gasped as she pulled his hard member out and stroked it faster.

"Well I don't think it's fair that you can take me in your bedroom and I can't in mine" faking her pout. "Do you think it's fair" she whispered as she moved her panties to one side and arching her back guided the tip of his manhood inside her; sighing with pleasure as she did so.

Sam groaned gripping her hips.

"Do you, Samuel Evans, think it's fair" she cooed teasingly.

"Mercedes" he sighed into her hair as he slipped his full length inside her gently. He felt her walls vibrate from being denied him a long time he almost came just from entering her; he pulled at his balls to give himself more time. Hearing her whimper he swore with desire "Fine Woman one quickie" he said in her ear as he slowly began to love her.

"All I asked" she smiled turning her head to kiss him.

He picked her up and chuckled when she grabbed his arm to hold on to; surprised by the gesture because she was still blindfolded. He laid her on her stomach on the bed and straddled her increasing his thrusts. Mercedes bit her lip and buried her face in a pillow as she tried to muffle her cries. Sam smiled watching her; squeezing her butt as he pounded harder into the softness of her womanhood. He felt her try to raise up and start meeting his strokes with some of her own he stopped her by pressing her softly back down with his body.

"Fuck me" Mercedes screamed into the pillow as her body began to shake from the orgasm in the nearing future.

"That's what I'm doing, Cede" he laughed in her ear, feeling himself buckling on the verge of his own release.

"I'm cumming, Sam" she whimpered gripping the pillow she felt herself beginning to clasp hold of him.

Sam cupped her face and turning her head to kiss her grunting he came inside her. Still slowly grinding inside her "You made us so late, Cede" he chuckled against her lips.

"Don't even think of putting the blame on me" she giggled feeling him pull out and put her panties right.

"And why not" Sam asked tucking his manhood back into his pants and pulling her up to stand with him and straightening her blindfold.

She smiled finger combing her messy curls "I wasn't the one to smack my ass was I"

Sam laughed as he picked up her tote bag. "Ready to go on our honeymoon, Babe" he asked.

"More than ready" she smiled.

Sam stepped up to her and just starred at her. He smiled as she twitched her lips waiting on him.

"Um… Sam you know I can't see so..." she crossed her arms.

Sam remained quiet

"You can't fool me; I can feel you standing in front of me Sa..."

He kissed her softly making her jump. "Do you think anyone heard us this time" he watched her ears go red.

"Oh god I hope not" she bit her lip "I tried to be quiet."

"I didn't, besides we are married now, Mercedes. They can't get mad at us for showing our love to each other" he pecked her forehead taking her forearm and guiding her out the door.

Sam led her to the foyer of the Jones home he took off her blindfold as he called to her parents. Simeon came running to them already for bed in his Backyardigans pajamas. Mercedes knelt down and hugged him.

"Mommy going to miss you so much" she said feeling tears in her eyes.

Sam set her bag by the door and swatted down beside her "Don't give the grandparents a hard time okay, Bit" he smiled hugging his son.

Mrs. Jones took Simeon from them as the couple hugged the grandparent's goodbye. Simeon started to scream as he saw his parents leaving. Mercedes started to turn back around seeing him reaching for her with big fat tears on his cheeks; her heart broke.

"He'll be fine, Yawne" Sam whispered softly as he stopped her pulling her out the door.

"We could take him with us, we will only be gone for a week" she sniffed back tears still hearing Simeon cries through the closed door.

"No" he said firmly leading her down the walk to the town car waiting on them. "Simeon is my son but you are my wife and I haven't spent any time with you for six months, allow me two weeks" he helped her in the car.

"But he's young he probably feels like we are abandoning him" she whispered snuggling close to him laying her head on his shoulder.

"He's grandparents will take care of him, he'll be fine by tom…"

"Wait did you say two weeks" Mercedes asked sitting up looking at him.

"Yes, I did" he answered linking their fingers together.

"But…" she began.

"Mercedes it will be okay, alright; no more worrying" he said kissing her hands. "We are going to enjoy our honeymoon" he smiled at her.

Mercedes took a breath "Okay" she said glancing out the window "Um this is not the way to the hotel"

"We aren't going back to the hotel, Love" he said pulling out the blindfold from his back pocket and tying it around her head. "I hope you love your surprise."

"I'm sure I will" she smiled laying head back down on him.

They rode for twenty minutes more until the car stopped. The driver got out and helped with their luggage. Sam helped Mercedes out of the car; she gave a short scream when Sam picked her up and put her over his shoulder.

"I'm not your cavewoman" she cried for him to put her down hoping her dress wasn't showing the world her business.

"Bam Bam, love Pebbles" he replied walking up a short flight of stairs. He sat her in a seat. "Stay Pebbles" his said kissing her.

"Nor am I a dog Samuel Evans" he heard her say as he helped load the suitcases; laughing as he went.

Mercedes dug her fingernails into her palm. She hated hearing bizarre sounds and was able to identify what it was. Sam put the last of the suitcases in and sat down across from Mercedes. She jumped we he took her hands.

"Mercedes" he said harshly quickly untying her blindfold "What's this" he asked holding up her hand. He watched her blinking for her eyes to adjust.

"What"?

"This" he pointed glaring at her.

Mercedes looked at the nail marks on her hand and shook her head. "I don't get it" she said looking from her hand to him.

"The marks Mercedes, why didn't you tell me you didn't like being blindfold."

"Oh I mean it's okay... Wait are we on an airplane" she asked looking around the posh luxury interior.

"Yes, don't change the subject, Mercedes why didn't you tell me" he asked quietly massaging the marks away.

"Because you wanted to surprise me Baby, it was just the different persons walking around and me not being able to see that's all, just nerves, and we are moving" she said looking out the window "Mind telling me where I'm going" watching the takeoff.

"Is there anything else I do that scares you" his green eyes asked sadly.

"Sam" she whispered stroking his face she leaned over and kissed him "Baby nothing okay."

He nodded "Okay" he mumbled against her lips.

"Good" she said sitting back and crossing her arms "Okay Sam, one where am I going, and two who's jet is this."

Sam smiled "This is just a rental jet, and Milan."

"Really" her eyes widen with surprise.

"Yes" he grinned seeing the fasten safety belt light go off he got up and offered her his hand. He led her to the back of the plane with a nice bedroom. "Impressive" he heard her say as he watched her crawl on the bed.

"Care to earn some mile high points" she asked lying down on the bed.

Sam locked the door and joined her on the bed. "It won't cost extra will it" he asked pulling her close.

"How much you willing to pay" she teased unbuckling his belt and pulling down his pants and boxers.

"I can't put a price on a priceless treasure, Mercedes" he said removing her panties and fingering her to get her wet.

"Wow you are so lucky you are cute cause that was as corny as I don't know what" she laughed as he entered her.

Sam pushed her gently onto her back "I meant it though" he said quietly moving within her "Mercedes you are priceless to me. I would never do anything to hurt you" he said gazing down at her seeing her smile fade as she took him seriously. "When I saw the marks on your hands and it was because of me..." his voice broke as his eyes stung with tears. He felt her kiss his tears away and pull him down into a hug.

"Sam it's okay, Love" she whispered softly; stroking his hair feeling him pull her tightly to him. She rub his back as he shudder to keep from sobbing.

"I'm sorry, I ruined the moment" he said raising his head up to look at her a few minutes later.

"I liked this moment better" she smiled wiping his tear stains away kissing him.

Sam pulled the kissed deeper as he began to thrust in her.

Mercedes moaned as he slipped his hands under her dress and bra and palmed her breasts. She broke the kiss to breath "Baby" she looked up at him smiling as she met his thrusts "I feel very safe with you, I know I don't have worry because I know you love me". She cupped his face with her hands and brought his lips back down to hers "And I love you" she whispered.

He looked at her as his body brought her to ecstasy "Thank you, Mercedes for saying that" he smiled.

Eyes closed she nodded. "You're welcome" she gasped as he came within her.

Sam rolled off her and pulled the covers over them "Get some sleep Yawne because you won't be getting any once we land." He pulled her close and kissed her forehead.

Mercedes rose up to look at him grinning mischievously "Pinky Swear".

Sam linked his pinky with hers "None" pecked her nose.

Sam scooped her up and carried her over the threshold of the hotel room. "This place is amazing, Sam" she said as he set her down watching her run to the window and lookout to the view.

"I should show you where I lived, it was a hole in the wall compared to this"

He tipped the hop for putting the luggage in the bedroom and moved over behind her and pressed himself so she was pinned between him and the window. "Ready to be ravaged, Mrs. Evans" he asked turning her head for her to look at him. She smiled looking from his eyes to his lips biting her own. Sam starred at her seeing the setting sun cast golden flakes in her brown eyes "You're so beautiful, Mercedes" he said softly.

"Thank you" she whispered blushing.

"No thank you Mercedes, I don't know where I'd be if I hadn't persued you"

"Sam you would have done well for yourself if we weren't toge…" she began.

"Maybe but I wouldn't have you to share my life with" he said shaking his head. "Thank you, for helping me with my math, and English classes in high school and getting me a scholarship to play football as well so I can provide the life for you that you deserve. Thank you for calling me out on my bullshit, I'm sorry our break-up happened but those three years made me a better man and a more qualified one to love you" he thumbed her tears away. "Thank you for letting me be your first, and only, because you are mine. Thank you for giving me my son Simeon, I hope we can have more really soon. And lastly thank you for becoming my wife, and corny yes, for making me the happiest man in the world" he whispered and bent his head down and kissed her.

Mercedes turned around so she could kiss him better. "That was so sweet Sam" she said looking up at him smiling shyly.

"It's all true" he said stepping away from her and crossing the room opening the door and putting the 'Do Not Disturb' sign out. "So I was thinking" he said beginning to take off his clothes as he made his way back to her "Maybe go a few rounds in the bed, then take it to the shower and maybe a few on the couch" he grinned striding over to her naked. He placed his hands on either side of her head and drew his face close to where their noses touched "What do you think"?

Mercedes glanced down at his large member that twitched at the sight of her. She felt her womanhood start to dampen "Maybe a few on the balcony if you feel adventurous" she said slyly.

"You got it, Babe" he grinned taking her hand and leading her into the bedroom.

Sam kissed her passionately as he slowly took off her clothes. Flicking the clasp of her bra open; feeling the weight of her breasts in his hands he took one of the nipples in his mouth while pinching the other one to erection. He heard her whimper as he made his way down to her womanhood placing soft sweet kisses as he went.

Sam placed his face on her mound using his nose to part the lips flicked his tongue inside tasting her salty sweetness. The smell of her he would never get out of his head. He stroked his member as he licked the wetness on her inner thighs.

"Sam" Mercedes whimpered as her knees buckled.

"Mercedes" he smiled his tongue flicking inside her.

"I…I won't be able to stan… stand up much longer.

He rose up told her to lie on the bed. Laying himself between her legs he continued where he left off. He wasn't going to be selfish this time placing her legs over his shoulders pressing his hand on her abdomen. Sam slipped two fingers in using the 'come here' motion as he worked within her.

Mercedes squirmed when she felt him gently nibble on her clit. "Sam" she screamed as she tried to push his head away with her hands. He didn't budge. She tried to move away but he wrapped a toned muscled arm around her leg and held her fast. "Oh god Sam, please stop" she cried arching her back as his tongue wrapped around her nub and he sucked it hard.

"Do you really want me to stop, Mercedes" he mumbled glancing up at her smiling at what he was making her body do.

"No" she rasped as her toes started to curl.

Sam groaned letting his fingers increase the pace and lapping up her spilling juices. Her legs began to shake violently and he could feel her walls collapsing around his fingers. He moved them faster and pressed down harder on her abdomen.

Mercedes screamed as she squirted in his mouth. She jerked as she moved away from him sitting up and holding herself shaking from the very intense orgasm he just gave her.

Sam sat up and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand as he watched her shiver. He crawled up to her and sat between her legs. "Did I do good" he asked raising her face up to look at him.

Eyes still dazed she nodded.

Sam pulled her onto his lap and wrapped him arms tightly around her "Say it, Yawne" he entered her "Tell me how good was it" he kissed her as she clung to him for support.

Tears came to Mercedes eyes as he gently began to move "Too good" she whispered as she trembled; the orgasm slowly fading away.

Sam chuckled as he made her look at him "Why the tears, Mercedes"?

She shook her head.

"Tell me, Love" he whispered; pulled her closer as she jerked in his arms again.

Mercedes placed her face in the crook of his neck "If I tell you do you promise you won't laugh"? She felt him nodded saying "I promise".

She took a deep breathe "When I was younger Kurt and I use to dress up and play wedding. We would get married and divorce so many times you would think we were a Hollywood couple." Sam chuckled "Since we were so close I guess my gaydar was off so I asked him out our sophomore year, and he came out to me. I was hurt at first but it made our friendship stronger. Kurt set me up with some guys on the football team but it never worked out".

"I'm glad it didn't"

Mercedes smiled "Then I joined glee club and coach Sylvester wanted me on the Cheerios it was over night popularity for me and as a result Noah asked me out. I knew he didn't want me for me but for the popularity and I wanted a hot guy on my arm. But I could do better, than him. So I waited while everyone around me found and even lost love yet nobody loved me until you. You taking me and Rachel to junior prom was very nice thing to do". She shifted so she could look at him "I know Rachel told you to ask me to dance, you didn't have to".

"I wanted to"

She gave him a soft smile "I know, and thank you for doing so. When we started dating I was so happy but never fully happy because all good things must come to an end, right."

"Wrong, Mercedes"

"Yes I know now but I didn't then" she chuckled. "When I came home for my first fashion show and you gave me that hug, the way you held me Sam… I felt at home again" she looked down her ears turning red. "I never thought we would be together again, but here we are".

Sam smiled "Here we are, and here we are going to stay, Love" he kissed her deeply.

Mercedes wrapped her arms around him pulling his body closer. Sam moved slowly inside her. His lips moved from hers to her neck. Hearing her moan as he laid down on top of her. His hands moved over body as he made sure that none of her was left untouched. He kissed his way down to her breasts and licked her nipple to erection. Sam took it into his mouth and sucked hard drawn a moan and shudder from its owner. He palmed its twin getting it ready for him.

Mercedes felt him give a small thrust as she gasped as he took her other nipple into his mouth giving it the same attention. He rose up and kissed her gently he hands moving to her hips. She could feel his strokes increase and changed each time he moved within her; sometimes giving her only a quarter or half then his full length it made her cry out as her body began to shake. Mercedes loved the way he felt inside her. With every stroke he filled her to her limit. She had never been with another man and the way Sam loved her; she never wanted to be. She looked up at him. His eyes where closed and his head tilted back and forth as he called out her name. They were made for each other and were so lucky to find each other.

Sam groaned as he increased his thrusts. He loved the way his wife could get so wet. She moaning and crying out with every sensation he gave her. He lifted her legs onto his arms and buried himself to the hilt inside of her just to feel her walls vibrate. They gave him no give it was like a puzzle piece long and lost fitting were it belonged all the time.

Sam felt her start grinding her hips against him. He swore with passion but he grabbed her waist and stopped her; just for tonight he alone was going to bring her pleasure. He pulled her close and quickening his pace her cries of ecstasy made him take her harder. He push back to watch her grinning big when her eyes fluttered and she bit her bottom lip as she tried to hold on wanting it to last longer. Sam gripped her hips hard; he could feel himself on the verge of ecstasy. Groaning he grind her against him her walls were beginning to pulse as they began to collapse around his shaft like a vice. Mercedes called out his name as she felt him give her a few last strokes. Sam grunted as he filled her.

The couple starred at each other panting hard. Sam moved inside her slowly. Her walls still squeezing him "Let me know when you're ready to go again" he whispered brushing his lips against hers.

Mercedes gently pushed him on his back. She moved down his body placing soft kisses as she went. She flicked her tongue to his nipples and heard him groan her name. She continued with the kisses until she reached his manhood. She tucked her curls behind her ears "I'm ready the question is, are you" she licked her lips as she wrapped her hand around his member. Looking up at him she took him into her mouth.

Sam groan as he sat up watching her take him deeper and deeper into his mouth with each stroke of her hands. He held her hair out of the way as she licked the tip causing a little pre-cum to squirt on her lips. She wiped it off with her finger and put it in her mouth and swallowed. Mercedes spat onto his member as she jerked it faster and harder. She winked at him as went down and deep throated him.

"Fuck Mercedes" he screamed grabbing her head and began to grind in her mouth and finally coming. His body shook as she sucked him dry. Mercedes sat up smiling proudly.

Sam pulled her to him and kissed her. "Your mouth is amazing" he moaned answering the question she was about to ask.

Mercedes laid her head on his chest "So is yours" she sighed peacefully as she wrapped her arms around him.

Sam kissed her softly as he moved her onto her back. He grinned down at her. "I loved you so much, Mercedes."

"I love you too" she stroked his face.

Sam placed his hand over hers and kissed her palm. "Will you give me fifty years, Yawne" he asked her.

Mercedes smiled "No Sam, I'll give you a lifetime". She kissed him as she made him enter her again.

"Just can't get enough can you, Cede" he groaned while she took him deeper in her.

"Probably never will" she gasped as he gave her what she wanted.

Sam was the first to wake up. He looked at the clock and saw it was quarter after three in the afternoon. He chuckle as he turned over to find Mercedes still asleep. He watched her for a while until his stomach growled.

Getting up he found some boxers in one of the suitcases and put them on. He bent down and kissed his wife and closed the bedroom door quietly after him. He looked over the room service menu and decided on toast, eggs, bacon, juice and a mixed fruit. He called in the order and turned on the TV to watch as he waited.

The food came thirty minutes later. He tipped the hop and rolled the cart into the bedroom. Mercedes was still asleep. He sat down and shook her gently.

"Yawne wake up I have food" he smiled down at her.

Mercedes groaned as she buried her face in the pillow. "What time is it"?

"Almost four"

"In the afternoon" she asked sitting up and rubbing her eyes.

"Yes Sam" said kissing her. He pushed her back down on the bed. It something about his woman that made him want her right then and there; maybe that her eyes were still slightly dazed or her hair was loving messy. He felt her cup his face and pull him into a deeper kiss. Whatever it was he knew he would never be able to get enough of her.

"I thought you said we have food" Mercedes moaned into his kiss.

"We do" Sam sighed moving the covers aside and pulling down his boxers. "Fuck, Woman, how the hell are you still wet" he growled as he entered her.

Mercedes laughed "I have no clue"

Sam shook his head trying not to lose control and bang her like a drum. Not yet anyway. He kissed her as he filled his hands with her breasts. He felt her met his thrusts. "Mercedes I will never stop loving you" Sam said breaking the kiss and looking down at her.

She chuckled "I hope not that would really suck cause I love you too."

He laughed as he kissed her again.

Sam held her in his arms afterwards. "Our food is probably cold."

"This was much better" Mercedes said her head on his chest.

"I'll order us a new batch."

"No" she said kissing the spot her head had laid on and sitting up "Cold food is fine" she draped the sheet over herself.

Sam grinned as he got up and pushed the cart closer to the bed. "Here we go my lady cold toast, cold eggs, cold bacon, and cold juice and fruit." He smiled making her a plate.

"I can deal with everything else being cold but not bacon. It sacred" she teased him sitting on the edge of the bed and taking the plate he handed her and she took a bite of it.

Sam laughed as he sat next to her and kissed her cheek. "I can't make any promises but next time I'll try not to make love to you before you had your hot bacon."

Mercedes shook her head giggling. "Come to think about it I like the way you make love to me a wee little bit more than bacon. No worries here." She kissed him.

Sam kissed her back hard. When he withdrew he smacked his lips "Bacony".

Mercedes shoved him as they both fell out laughing.

It was five days before they even got out of their hotel room. Mercedes had wanted to stay in but Sam coaxed her out with a shopping trip. They were both swore so a day off was welcomed.

The couple walked down what Mercedes called Italy's Rodeo Drive. Both sides of the street line with shops from Gucci to Prada and Chanel to Valintino. Mercedes bought a Prada jacket for Kurt as a thank you present for working so hard on their wedding and Chanel tote for Santana for being an awesome manager.

She stopped in front of Hermes.

"I used to window shop this store every day when I lived here" she told Sam. "And I still do."

"Why don't you just buy something" he asked not getting the appeal.

She scoffed "Because this compared to Hermes" she held up the shopping bags "is like chump change." She stepped closer as she looked at the purses. "Just a scarf cost five grand" she said longingly.

Sam looked at the display "I'll probably never get the fashion world" he chuckled.

Mercedes turned to look at him "Neither will I" she laughed.

Sam grabbed her hand and led her to the door.

"Sam no" she whispered harshly as she tried the plant her feet as he pulled her inside.

"Why not" he asked?

"It would be coveting something I can't have besides I just like to look" she whispered as her mouth dropped open at all the shining and pretty things.

"Which one do you want, Mercedes" he asked ignored her words.

She shook her head "I don't need anything from here, Sam."

"I didn't ask you if you needed anything I asked what you wanted" he said watching her shake her head again. "Mercedes I've watched you shop for your clothes at Target and Forever 21 while you sell your designs at Bloomingdales, Neimans, and Normstorm. Which Kurt told me are very expensive in their own right."

"Are you trying to say I look tacky" she asked crossing her arms "'Cause I thought I did pretty well today for a $40 dollars."

Sam took in her white oversized off-the-shoulder boyfriend shirt over dark metallic skinny jeans and red pumps that match her hoop earrings. Tonight she was going to keep those pumps on. "Never but there is nothing wrong with a few designer labels Kurt taught me that."

"Sam the only designer I have in my closet is some Jimmy Choo riding boots that are five seasons old that I got off eBay".

"As a wedding present then."

"Okay so I'll get you something too."

"You gave me my son."

"The purses cost more" she sighed.

Sam shrugged "Which one, Yawne"

"Fine Sam" she said as she walked over to the display. "This one" she said taking one off the shelf. "Victoria Beckman has one and I fell in love with it as I was dressing her for her husband's gala."

A saleswoman came over "That purse is perfect for you. Would you like the matching wallet, coin purses, tote, and make up bag. We also have a new baby diaper bag" she asked.

"Oooo no, thank you this is enough" Mercedes smiled handing the purse to the woman as they walked up to the counter.

"Go look around some more make sure this is it" Sam said.

She rolled her eyes and muttered 'Thou shalt not covet though my husband is telling me to; I will not… Oh my god this is too cute".

Sam smiled as she went. "I would like the collection, and the baby bag as well" he said to the saleswoman.

"You two have a baby"? She asked pulling out a binder and scanning the barcodes of the items.

"Yes a son he's almost two" Sam pulled out a picture from his wallet and showed it to her.

"Adorable, he looks like his mother" she nodded toward Mercedes.

"Thanks" Sam grinned handing her a card "Just wrap the purse she gave you. Have the rest delivered to the hotel" he gave her the address and room number.

"She is a very lucky woman" the clerk blushed.

Sam laughed "She's my wife and I'm the lucky one" he said watching Mercedes as she looked at the home accessories.

"I think I'm going to sleep with my purse as a teddy bear" Mercedes said hugging it to her chest as they rode up the elevator to their room.

"I hope not 'cause where does that leave me" Sam asked as they walked down the hall. It was night and they had just gotten back from eating and their day out.

"Right here between me and Mr. Hermes" she laughed hugging him. "Kiss me" she smiled looking up at him.

He obliged her as he opened the door; making her walk inside first and turned on the lights.

"Sam" she whispered as he watched her walk up to a huge Hermes shopping bag sitting on the foyer table of their suite "What's this"?

"You got to open it to find out" he smiled as he put their bags in the bedroom.

"Sam you don't have to spoil me" she said as she walked after him carrying the bag.

Sam watch as she opened the bag and pull out the rest of the collection. She was grinning ear to ear when she examined every piece. He lay down on the bed. "Being spoiled can be a good thing don't you think"?

Mercedes giggled as she climbed into bed as well. She kissed him "Hugs, kisses and a simple 'I love you' will do just fine Samuel Evans. Seriously no Christmas or birthday presents for at least five years" she smiled at him.

"I can't promise that"

"Sam" she frowned.

"I'm sorry but if I want to buy you something I'm going to get it" he said tangling his fingers in her hair and pulling her down for another kiss.

"You're too good for me Sam" she smiled stroking his face.

"No I'm just right for you" he said moving on top of her.

"Maybe we can try out the balcony, tonight" she said breaking his kiss to take off his shirt.

"No can do, Cede. Saw a couple getting arrest this morning for trying the same thing" he smiled down at her. "Besides I don't need anything really adventurous, all I need is you; preferiblely naked."

Mercedes laughed "Wearing clothes today did feel a bit odd"

Sam pulled off her shirt and undid her bra freeing her breasts "It was what God intended" he said fondling her breasts. Sam's phone rang; he groaned into Mercedes kisses as he pulled it out of his pocket and look at the caller id. "It's Stacie" he mumbled.

"Answer it" she said as she stopped kissing him.

Pouting he pressed the speaker button. "Hello"

"Sammy" Stacie voice rang out.

"Hey, Stacie is there something you want, I'm busy"

"Don't be mean" Mercedes hissed at him.

Sam rolled his eyes.

"Actually I want to talk to Mercedes I have a surprise for her"

"Hi Stacie what's the surprise" she asked.

The phone was silent for some minutes. The couple looked at each other "Stac" Sam said.

"Mama" said Simeon voice.

Sam got off his wife as she sat up and took his phone.

"Simeon" she said tears coming to her eyes "hey baby how are you" she heard him say momma again then dada. She felt Sam kiss her cheek. Stacie got back on the phone.

"I taught him that" she beamed.

Sam pulled Mercedes to straddle him. "That's awesome, Stac, thanks for doing it"

"Thank you Stacie" Mercedes whispered still hearing Simeon start singing a song of their names.

"No problem, enjoy the rest of your honeymoon" she clicked off.

The couple sat in silence for a while until Sam broke it "What's going to happen when Bit goes off to school"?

"He can be home schooled" she shrugged looking at him.

Sam chuckled "No Babe. What about our future children, are you going to be this way with them as well"?

Mercedes handed him his phone back and moved off him. "You can't blame me for being a little over-protective with him, Sam. We almost lost him, remember" she said sadly. She moved to the side of the bed and took off her shoes biting back tears.

"I try not to think about it." Sam whispered moving to sit beside her and taking her hands in his. "It makes me too sad, Yawne." He placed his forehead on hers. "When I saw him lying there still on the table and the nurses and doctor trying to get him to breathe..." his voice broke as he sniffed.

They had never talked about how they almost lost him.

"I couldn't do anything to help him." He sighed looking into her eyes "I don't ever want to go through that again".

"Neither do I" she whispered wiping her tears away.

Sam stood them both up and hugged her tight. "We can't live in fear of what will happen to our children, Mercedes, it's not fair to them or us."

"Can we do this with the next one and keep Lit Bit in a bubble"?

Sam laughed "Okay"

It was their second to last day in Milan and the couple had left their room a total of three times. It was late afternoon that morning they had gone site seeing and Mercedes had shown Sam where she use to live and her internship job. They had a late lunch and come back to the room where they made love again. They had each stopped counting.

Mercedes eyes shot open. "Oh no" she thought "Maybe but I can't remember." She stirred as she tried to get out of bed. Sam was half on top of her his face nestle in the crook of her neck as he slept peacefully. Mercedes tried to move again and Sam increased his pressure and snuggled closer.

Slowly but surely Mercedes managed to maneuver her way out and replace herself with a body pillow. She got out of bed and began to quietly rummage through the suitcases. Not finding what she was looking for she decided to wake Sam to see if he knew where it was but looking at him sleeping so peacefully she decided against it. Mercedes got dressed grabbed her wristlet and hotel key she left the suite. Going down stairs to the concierge desk she asked where the nearest pharmacy was. He gave her directions. Mentally kicking herself she set off. How could she forget her birth control?

Sam cuddle closer realizing that the softness he felt wasn't real he woke up to find the pillow cuddling back. "Cede" he called groggily turning over and clicking on the side table lamp. He saw their suitcases ransacked he called her name again. No answer. Slightly panicking he got out of bed and rushed to the bathroom then to the living area and small kitchen nook. He opened the front door and looked out into the hall. Some middle age women passed him giggling and pointing.

"Impressive package Goldielocks care to bring it over to the three cougars house" one of them said winking at him.

Sam looked down realizing he was naked closed the door with a sharp snap. "This isn't fucking funny, Mercedes" he yelled back into the suite his blood boiled as he marched into the bedroom and quickly dressed. He checked the bathroom others rooms again. Running his hands through his hair he grabbed his phone and pressed her speed dial number and heard it ring on the other side of the bed. His stomach dropped Mercedes never went anywhere without her phone. Grabbing the hotel key he left for the lobby.

Mercedes could believe how late it was getting; she checked the clock above the counter at the third pharmacy. She cursed herself for forgetting her cellphone she would have called Sam and told him what was up but he was a deep sleeper.

Sam hurried through the lobby showing Mercedes picture to the patrons asking if they had seen her. Finally he asked for the number for the local police.

Mercedes' Italian was rusty Jean had made her speak English to him because he was dating an up and coming American super model. But it was the fifth store where she finally got the morning after pill and she rushed back to the hotel.

Sam was tired of explaining as he paced the living room floor. He watched as detectives and forensics dusting his suite. Bad thoughts came to his mind and why he couldn't wake up to help her. He heard his name through the open door and he ran outside.

Mercedes stood behind yellow tape and two burly police officers.

"That's my wife" he yelled at them pushing forcefully between and wrapping his arms tight around her. "The fuck Mercedes what hell where you thinking"? He pushed back and checked to see if she was hurt; finding she wasn't he pulled her back to him.

"Sam what's going on, who are all these people" she asked trying to push out of the hug to breathe.

Sam freed her out of the hug an inch or two. His body shook with anger. "You scared the shit out of me" he whispered harshly his eyes red looking down at her.

"Oh god Sam I'm sorry. I forgot my phone well really I thought it was going to be a short trip..."

"Son" the head detective said "Is this your wife."

"Yes"

"Okay wrap it up we will be sending you a bill, kid; for wasting our time."

Sam nodded as he led Mercedes inside the room. He didn't speak until everyone had left.

His blood more at a simmer now he turned to look at her as he finished closing and locking the door; "Continue" he glared crossing his arms "And continue fast Mercedes Evans."

Mercedes set her bag on the foyer table as she walked over to him. "So I forgot my phone well really I thought it would be a short trip so I wouldn't need it. Turns out it was a long one" she laughed hoping he would join in and stopped when he didn't. "Okay" she cleared her throat "So I went to the drug store 'cause apparently I forgot to bring my birth control."

Sam blinked he swore loudly as he ran his hand over his face. "Were the pills in your bag you brought out of the bathroom the night we left"?

Mercedes thought for a moment "Yes they were."

"Fuck I forgot to grab the bag on our way out and I had put it by the door and everything" he smiled sheepishly at her.

"So really this is your fault" she teased him.

"No it's still yours." He smiled pulling her to him "How did you forget all this time"?

"A woman can forget even her last name when she has a lover as wonderful as you Samuel Evans" she winked at him.

Grinning he picked her up and sat down on the couch making her sit in his lap where he just held her. "What did you have to get from the drug store anyway"?

Mercedes laid her head on his chest. "The morning after pill" she whispered.

'Why"?

"I haven't taken birth control for two weeks Sam I could have gotten pregnant."

"Is getting you being pregnant a bad thing"?

"No, Baby, no, actually I was thinking that Simeon could use a little brother or sister" she looked at him.

"I would like a daughter that looks just like you" he smiled twisting one of her curls.

"Or maybe another boy that looks like his daddy"

"Have you taken the pill yet."

She shook her head no.

"Good let's get started baby making then" he grinned mischievously laying her down on the couch and moving on top of her.

"Cause you promise me we would remember" she smiled unbuttoning his khaki shorts "Sam you went commando with cops here" she said pulling out his member.

He shrugged "Wasn't really thinking about boxers at that moment, Yawne". He pulled of her sweats and panties.

"I'm so very sorry Sam but I thought you would still be asleep when I got back".

"I don't sleep well without you in bed with me Mercedes" he confessed to her. "If at all" he cupped her womanhood and made circler motions on her clit with his thumb.

"Really" she moaned.

"Yes I know it's stupid but it's the truth" he said feeling her juices spill into his hand.

"Sam, it's not stupid" she smiled kissing his lips and feeling him enter her. "I love these little things about you"

He sighed into her kisses as gave her his first thrust. "I love everything about you" he groaned.

Sam and Mercedes arrived back home two days later.

"Mercedes you are glowing" Mrs. Evans said as she escorted them inside the house. "Can this mean what I think it means"? She looked from her to her son.

Sam shook his head "If you mean we had a good time then, yes".

"Not exactly"

"Sam and I are going to take things slow but if anything happened then it happened" Mercedes said smiling.

"Oh my goodness, I hope so" Mrs. Evans said hugging her.

Stacie walked in with a sleeping Simeon. "Are you two going to stay awhile"?

"Sorry Stac" Sam said taking his son and diaper bag "I've got to get back to start training camp" he kissed his sisters head.

"But we'll be back soon" Mercedes reassured her "and you all are welcome to come down anytime".

"I hope so it's not fair that you live so far away" Mr. Evans grumped "I don't get to see my grandson grow up".

"How about the family comes down for my opening game" Sam suggested.

"Do we get the VIP treatment" Stevie asked.

Mercedes giggled as Sam handed Simeon to her then put his brother in a head lock.

"Of course little bro nothing but the best for you" Sam said sarcastically.

The family laughed; after a long goodbye Mercedes, Sam and a now wake Simeon were on their way to the airport.

Sam smiled as Simeon crawled from his lap to Mercedes not sure which one he wanted to be on more.

"Santana will be there to pick us up from the airport" Mercedes said laying her head on her husband's shoulder. "She proposed to Brittany last week".

"So Kurt was right another wedding for him to plan" Sam said pulling her close. Simeon had decided on Mercedes lap.

Mercedes smiled as she closed her eyes she felt Sam kiss her lips softly.

"Fifty years, Yawne"?

"Lifetime, Samwise".
