We Can Do This….Forever
Chapter 5: I Chose You
Once at Burt and Carole's house, Sam and Mercedes split up. Mercedes went with the girls and Kurt and Sam went with the boys in Finn's room.
"So Kurt, How are you and Blaine?" Tina asked while she painted Sugar's nails.
"Blaine and I are trying to make this long distance thing work like Sam and Mercedes; its hard but we love each other so I know we can do it for a couple of more months till he graduates. All the girls awwwwed over what Kurt said as he blushed.
"I know you and Blaine will work out…." Quinn was also in town with the rest of them. Quinn decided to fly down from Yale because everyone else was down here and she missed them.
"Thanks Quinn!" Kurt smiled the biggest smile at her.
"I don't know about Sam and Mercedes though." Quinn looked over to Mercedes. Quinn never really liked Mercedes again after she took Sam. Them being close the week of graduation was Quinn just in the moment of missing everybody and needing someone there to relate to, sing with and cry with.
"Excuse me," Mercedes lifted her head from doing Brittany's nails. She wanted to make sure she heard Quinn right. "What did you say?"
"I said that I don't know if you and Sam will work out." Quinn tried to act sincere about it but Mercedes saw right through her fake face. Mercedes saw jealousness in Quinn's eyes. She knew Quinn was still mad after theses years but Mercedes wasn't going to add fuel to the fire.
"Quinn I'm going to act like you didn't just say that." Mercedes went right back to painting nails. Everyone in the room closed their mouths after gapping it open to what Quinn said to Mercedes.
"No Mercedes let's talk about what I just said." Quinn kept her eyes on Mercedes and turned to face her. Mercedes knew Quinn was about to drop some heavy stuff in here. This was not what she wanted to do after all that stuff with her dad earlier.
"Quinn please not today," Mercedes asked nicely.
"No Mercedes I've had a lot to say to you for a long time now." Mercedes began to get really angry with Quinn she knew not to feed Quinn's foolishness but she wanted to shut Quinn up.
"What is it you want to say then," Mercedes stopped what she was doing again and turned in the desk chair to face Quinn.
"Well for starters you and Sam will never work." Quinn put an emphasis on the k.
"And why is that?" Mercedes asked raising her eyebrows.
"Sam likes girls like me. Who look good with just a tiny bit of meat on their bones not a lot. He likes the girls who are preppy and actually are known to this world. Sam prefers girls that look good with him and won't embarrass him on the daily." Quinn watched as tears gathered in Mercedes eyes and smiled at her. Mercedes got up to go to Kurt's bathroom and locked the door. Tina ran to go get Sam in Finn's room. All the girls except for Quinn gathered by the door telling Mercedes through the door she was beautiful and she and Sam would last forever. They had no luck getting Mercedes to open the door.
"Sam! Mercedes needs you, come to Kurt's room," Tina ran into the room grabbing Sam's hand and running to Kurt's room.
"What's going on?" Sam went into panic mode. "Where's Mercedes?"
"Ask Quinn," Kurt looked over to Quinn giving her a stare and eye rolls.
Quinn walked over to Sam. "I kind of just told her that you two wouldn't work out and you prefer women like me." Quinn touched his chest. "She'll be ok."
Sam threw Quinn's arm off of his chest. "Don't touch me Quinn. You just disrespected Mercedes and you expect me to respect that. I always knew you were mean." Sam began to hear Mercedes crying in the bathroom. He walked over to the door and turned the handle to see that it was locked. He knew that if he were to ask Mercedes to open the door, she wouldn't.
"One of you have a bobby pin?" Sam turned to all the girls by the door. Brittany pulled one out of her hair and handed it to Sam. He picked the lock with the pin and after a minute of jiggling the handle, the door opened. Sam walked in and shut the door behind him.
"Baby." Sam sat down with her on the floor. "Stop crying, I've told you before you are beautiful." He kissed her hands that were over her face and sat her in his lap and lied back on the wall so her head was resting on his chest. For a few minutes he just let her cry in his arms. The thing that hurt him the most in the world was seeing Mercedes hurt and crying. He wondered how somebody that beautiful could cry. If it was a boy who said this stuff to Mercedes, Sam would have made sure he was knocked out on the floor but it was Quinn. He knew Quinn still had feelings for him but he had no feelings left for her.
"Mercedes look at me." Sam tried pulling her hands down from her face. He got one down and when he looked into her big tear filled brown eyes his heart stopped. It hurt him to see such a perfect person in emotional pain like this. In that instant he wanted to make everything better for her. Mercedes took Sam's face as a sign that she looked really bad. Mercedes covered her face again and began to sob.
"Baby, No, I'm sorry…What did I do?" Sam lifted her head towards him. He grabbed both of her hands and held them down in her lap.
"Why did you make that face?" Mercedes asked looking away from him.
"It hurts me to see you cry really badly." He lifted her back up so he could look into her beautiful eyes. "Don't listen to Quinn she is just mad because you won my heart." He kissed one of Mercedes hands and laid it on his chest where his heart was. "Don't let no man tell you, you aren't beautiful or your body isn't flawless cause guess what?"
"What?" Mercedes murmured against his chest.
"You are perfection to me Mercedes. You really are and I'm the only man who should be able to state his opinion on your body." He rubbed his hand down her back slowly and over her butt and down her legs. "All this, is mine." Mercedes lifted her head up closer to kiss Sam. She kissed him and then kissed down his face and neck to his heart. Mercedes kissed her hand and put it to his heart while Sam put his hand over hers.
"I love you Mercy, always have, and always will." Mercedes moved to straddle Sam's lap and she kissed him with force and passion to show him she also felt the same love for him. She loved how Sam showed her she was something special if not to anyone else, to him. She laid her head to his shoulder and breathed his scent in and out. Mercedes felt comfort in Sam's arms. She lifted her head with a curious look on her face. "How did you open that door Mister? Don't say magic or super powers because I know you."
"With Brittany's bobby pin."
"When did you learn to pick doors without the key?"
"When you learned to lock doors when you cry or when you are mad at me. Stacey does the same thing too so I have to pick the lock to get in." Mercedes just laughed and kissed him on the cheek.
"Thanks babe," Mercedes said.
"No problem gorgeous." Sam dragged out the s to make Mercedes laugh. Mission Accomplished.
Outside of the door Kurt was talking to Quinn. "You don't care about anybody else but yourself but I think you need to leave now." Mercedes heard him in the bathroom and got off of Sam's lap. She had something to say to Quinn. Everybody turned heads when the bathroom door opened and the couple walked out. "Mercedes," They all said with sympathetic looks.
"Are you ok?" Kurt brushed her hair with his hands.
"I'm fine." She hugged Kurt knowing through everything her best friend was right there. Sometimes Sam got jealous of the relationship between the two of them but he was reminds himself if he can't be there for Mercedes he knew Kurt would.
Mercedes moved out of the circle that was around her and went in front of Quinn to where she was on the bed. Quinn continued to pick her nails like Mercedes was invisible.
"I feel stupid for letting you speak to me like that. I should have known not to let you speak for Sam. He is mine Quinn and you just can't seem to get that in pretty little head of yours. I didn't steal Sam from you. If I'm not mistaken, you let him go and I'm glad you did cause now I have him." Mercedes went to walk out of the room and turned around at the door. "By the way Sam left your pancake booty for this." Mercedes tapped her butt as she walked out. Sam was instantly turned on by the action but then remembered this was his friend's house and everyone was here.
Quinn closed her mouth at that which she had gapped open. "Fine then." Quinn grabbed her purse and keys and left not saying a word to anybody. Mercedes was down in the kitchen fixing a drink when Quinn walked past her to the door. Quinn had tears in her eyes as she walked out the door to her car. Tears fell down Mercedes face as she put the juice carton back into the refrigerator. Sam walked in a she turned back around.
"You ok Mercy?" He wrapped his arms around her.
"Yes it's just sad that me and Quinn use to be really close and now I don't even know. We came to each other for everything. When she was pregnant she lived with me and my family for awhile. I thought of her as a sister but I apparently came between you and her." Sam lifted Mercedes chin from his chest.
"You didn't come between me and Quinn. She let me go and I chose you. Everything ended before you were ever mine." Sam put her hair behind her ear and looked over her shoulder to her backside. Looking back at her face he said, "You looking fine baby." She laughed and blushed while she backed away out of his arms.
"I know, I know, you want to jump all up on this chocolate thunder." She shook her butt to him and ran back upstairs. Sam ran after her.
The rest of the night was filled with fun. The whole gang sat around and watched movies in the basement on the big screen. Burt and Carole were still in the house so noting inappropriate was done. All the boys agreed to have their nails painted by the girls. Blaine and Kurt cuddle on the couch also did Sam and Mercedes. Everybody lied up on the same big couch and watched movies till everyone fell asleep.
I really like this chapter! Sorry I had to make Quinn a mean character but it was good. The next chapter will be the rest of Mercedes stay. I tryna move faster on the updating stuff.
