Chapter 6: Never Leave You
Mercedes was putting on her make up to go have breakfast with her mom and Sam. She had forgotten about the event with Quinn and remembered the fun things about last night with her glee club family. Getting to fall asleep for the night in Sam's arms was her favorite part.
Sam came up the stairs and stuck his head in the bathroom. "Babe, we got to go, we will be late, and you know how our parents have rules with times." Mercedes was putting the last touches on her make up while Sam took the time to enjoy looking at her body. Mercedes noticed the staring and took a towel off the rack and threw it at his face.
"A picture last longer." Mercedes giggled as Sam snatched the towel from his face.
"A picture doesn't last as long as the time I want to spend my life with you." Sam kissed Mercedes cheek as she laughed. "That was so cheesy Sam." She closed the door on his face.
"Hey open the door, come on so we can go!" Sam sat there and knocked on the door. Mercedes just fixed her hair and laughed at her silly boyfriend. "Fine then, I'm going to leave you, bye." Before Sam could get down the steps Mercedes ran out the door and jumped on his back. She kissed him all over his neck and he carried her down the steps. "No, don't leave me!" Mercedes pouted. Sam loved when she pouted; it was the most adorable thing to him. "You know, I'd never leave you." Sam kissed her pouted lips. Mercedes smiled, "That's why I love you."
The place Mercedes and Sam ended up in with Mrs. Jones was a new place called Oodles. Oodles was a breakfast karaoke joint downtown. "How did you children sleep last night?" Mrs. Jones smiled at Sam and Mercedes as she drunk her coffee.
"We slept well." Mercedes and Sam said in unison.
"That's good!" Margret said she dived into her food consisting of eggs, bacon, grits, toast and milk. Margret looked at Sam and Mercedes in front of her and saw endless love. She could tell her daughter was set for life. She just wanted her husband to be on the same page. Margret didn't want Daniel to miss out of Mercedes life. Daniel would have to stop being so stubborn and see that his daughter was happy in love with Sam. Until he got that he would not be able to see the moments like these.
Margret grabbed Mercedes hand on the table. "Mercy, I just want you to know I'm here for you, always. I'm lucky to have you as my daughter and if your daddy is not talking to you, don't think we don't love you, ok?" Margret rubbed Mercedes hand in a soothing motion.
"Mom, I know you are always here, you have proved that to me in so many ways. When everyone turns their back I have you. I love you." Mercedes lifted up from the chair to kiss her mom's cheek.
"Awww Mercy I love you more. Thanks for making me an honored mother. I'm proud of what you have become." Mercedes and Margret hugged hard over the table. Mercedes was very appreciative of her mother. From giving birth to her to accepting her and Sam's relationship. She loved her mom so much and would if she could give the world to her mom. The three of them enjoyed a nice breakfast at the spot. The performers of the morning were really good and could sing well.
"The last performers we will have this morning are Sam and Mercedes. "The owner at the microphone said as the last performers finished.
"Wait what?!" Mercedes looked at her mom surprised.
I signed you two love birds up for the last singing spot, go up there." Mr. Jones said pushing the two away from the table. Sam led Mercedes to the stage and helped her up the stairs. Mercedes tapped the mike twice when she got up there to see if it was working.
"Hi everyone ummmm I'm Mercedes and this is Sam," Mercedes pointed to Sam, "Enjoy." Mercedes took the microphone and turned around for the beginning of the song.
Mercedes~ you'll always be mine, sing it to the world
Always be my boy, I'll always be your girl
Nobody's business, ain't nobody's business
Ain't nobody's business
But mine and my baby
Mine and my baby
But mine and my baby
But mine and my baby
Ooh
I love to love to love you baby
I love to love to love you baby
Me and you, get it
Ain't nobody's business
Said it ain't nobody's business
Mercedes felt like she was singing to the world that Sam was hers and nobody had to worry about it. She wished her dad was here so he could hear this.
Sam~ your love is perfection
Please point me in the right direction
Imma give you all my affection
Every touch become infectious
Let's make out in this Lexus
There's no other love just like this
A life with you I wonder can we become love's persona
Mercedes' love for Sam was so special to him. He would go to the ends of the earth for Mercedes. Mercedes watched as Sam sang to her. She truly wanted everything with him.
Mercedes~ you'll always be the one that I come home to
Boy let me love you and show you how special you are
I wanna be your baby; you'll always be my baby
Tell me what you want now
Let's sing it to the world
Baby give me time
Imma be your girl
Sam ~ I wanna make you mine
And it ain't nobody's business
It ain't nobody's business
It ain't nobody's business
It ain't nobody's business
Just mine and my baby
Mercedes felt like she was on cloud 9 singing to him. She felt that Sam meant every word he said in the song. Their love for each other was nobody's business but there's.
Mercedes~ your love is perfection
Please point me in the right direction
Imma give you all my affection
Every touch becomes infectious
Let's make out in this Lexus
There's no other love just like this
A life with you I wonder can we become love's persona
Sam twirled Mercedes around and grabbed her waist to put her to him. He sung looking into her eyes.
Sam ~ you'll always be the one that I want to come home to
Girl let me love you and show you how special you are
I wanna be your baby; you'll always be my baby

Nobody's business
But mine and my baby
Sam grabbed Mercedes neck and brought her into a kiss. The audience cheered for the best performers of the morning. They would definitely have to come back.
"MMM that was fun." Mercedes blushed after the kiss.
Mercedes and Sam said their goodbye's to her mom. Mercedes promised she would come to the house before her stay in Lima was over. Mercedes had to leave in two days. She would have to go back to a lonely house with Puck in L.A. For right now she wasn't going to think about leaving but instead enjoy the rest of the stay. Sam and Mercedes went back to Burt and Carole's after breakfast.
The first thing they shall when they pulled up the house was Quinn's car in the drive way. Sam looked over to Mercedes and could tell she had an uncomfortable look on her face. Sam grabbed her hand and smiled a tiny smile at her. She smiled back. They got out of the car once Sam parked it and about to go in the house when Mercedes shall Quinn crying in her car.
"Come on Mercy," Sam tugged on her hand so they could go in. Mercedes let go of his hand and walked over Quinn's car.
"Sam go ahead and go in. I'll meet you in the house in a minute, ok." Sam looked at her like she was crazy and then remembered his Mercy had a kind heart and she hated to see people cry.
"Ok Mercedes, I'll be in the house if you need me baby." Sam watched Mercedes walk over to the passenger door before he walked into the front door. Mercedes grabbed the handle of the passenger side door and got in. She at first didn't know what she was doing in the car with the person who put her down badly yesterday. Mercedes wrapped her arms around the crying girl and put Quinn's head to her chest. Quinn just let Mercedes hold her. It felt good to be in her ex-best friend's arms. Quinn missed the feeling of when everything was so bad around her she knew she could find comfort in Mercedes. Mercedes brushed Quinn's hair as she cried on her chest. This was the same moment they had when Quinn told Mercedes she was pregnant.
"Quinn what's going on?" Mercedes asked between Quinn's sobs. Quinn shaked her head on Mercedes chest. "Quinn you can tell me. I'm here for you promise." Quinn started to talk but she was hyperventilating so it was hard to understand. "Take a deep breath and then talk to me, ok?" Quinn nodded with tears still failing from her eyes.
Quinn sat up and wiped some tears away. "I'm pregnant again Cedes." Quinn began to sob again.
"Awww Quinn it's gonna be ok." Mercedes laid Quinn back on her chest and brushed her hair away from her face. Quinn felt like a jerk in the moment. The same girl she bullied yesterday was in her car holding her in her arms.
"Cedes I'm so sorry." Quinn rose up to look at her.
"Quinn it's ok."
"No it's not. I took my anger and sadness out on you yesterday. That was not acceptable. A good person like you doesn't deserve that. I'm such a bitch. Through everything that I've ever done, you are always here for me." Quinn hugged Mercedes tight. "I love you cedes."
"I love you too Quinn."Mercedes said.
"Would you care to tell me who this baby daddy is?" Quinn began to look like she was going to cry again. "Quinn doll, no crying just talk to me." Mercedes let Quinn sit fully back in the driver's seat and grabbed her hand.
"It's William my boyfriend from Yale." Quinn sobbed again. "I called him though and he said he doesn't want the baby." Mercedes' tears began to fall down her face. Why would William do this to Quinn? He was just as much as Quinn was to this baby. "And the worst thing Cedes is I'm starting to fall back in love with Puck. We have been talking a lot since we have been in Lima."
"Quinny, you are going to be ok." Mercedes turned to face her fully in her seat. "I'm here for you just like I was when you were pregnant with Beth. Tell Puck what is going on and how you still have those feelings for him. Quinn I still believe he loves you. Don't forget I do live with him and he is always telling me how much he misses you and the relationship. I believe that man would do anything for you. If William doesn't want to be a part of the baby's life then he is missing out on you as his and the baby as his. Let's go talk to Puck." Mercedes got out of the car and went over to Quinn's side of the car and opened the door. She grabbed Quinn's hand.
"I can't do it Cedes." Quinn stayed sitting in the car and looked down shaking her head no.
"Yes you can. Puck could comfort you better than I could. Come on doll." Quinn took a deep breath in and got out of the car. She wiped her eyes and straightened her clothes. Mercedes led her to the front door. They walked to the room where the boys were. "Puck, come here." Mercedes said as she opened the door. Puck walked out and in that moment and he saw Quinn with the sadness all over her. He grabbed her hand and went into the guest room shutting the door. Mercedes turned to go down stairs and there was Sam right in front of her.
"What was that Mercedes?" Sam asked looking confused.
"Quinn just needed to talk to Puck. That's all."
"Why couldn't she get him herself?" Sam asked wanting to know what was going on.
"It's nothing Sam. Everything is all good." Mercedes tried to walk pass him and drop the subject.
"I wanna know Mercedes. What did she say to you?" Sam followed Mercedes down the steps.
"I know you wanna know but I'm not telling you. It's business between friends." She continued to walk away from Sam.
"Why do you let her control you?" Mercedes stopped right in her tracks at Sam's question. Sam wanted to take the question back as soon as he said it but he knew it was too late. Mercedes turned around at Sam.
"She doesn't control me Sam. Unlike a lot of people in this world I hardly have any mean bones in my body. I couldn't sit there and just watched her cry." Mercedes was mad Sam asked her a question like that.
"She sure did watch you while you cried." Sam said it under his breath but Mercedes still heard him.
"You don't know everyone's story." Mercedes walked away from him to the kitchen. Sam knew Mercedes was right. Quinn could be going through stuff he didn't know about. Mercedes truly was a good friend. Sam sat on the couch for 5 minutes to let Mercedes calm down before he talked to her.
Sam went to the kitchen where Mercedes was texting on her phone by herself. Sam pulled the chair out right beside her and sat in it, "Mercy I don't want to argue with you for the rest of your stay. I want you to enjoy the time with me." Mercedes continued to play flappy bird on her phone totally ignoring Sam. He snatched the phone away from her.
"Sam give me back my phone, now!" Mercedes reached for her phone but Sam held it back. Mercedes sat back in her chair, crossed her arms and pouted her lips looking straight ahead. Sam slowly entered closer to her face smiling and laid a peck on her lips. When she didn't respond from the kiss, Sam kissed her longer. A lingering kiss was left on her lips and she touched her lips and smiled. Mercedes giggled when she turned to see Sam looking at her. She pecked Sam back on the lips fast.
"Baby I want to enjoy the rest of your stay. The next two days are going to be time to ourselves. So, no drama between us. Ok baby, deal." Sam held out his hand for her to shake. "Deal," She put her hand in his.
Mercedes next day was filled with enjoyed time with Sam. She felt like every day with him she began to love him more. He was so good to her. Sam and Mercedes last night together was spent at his house. The house was empty so they were alone. That night Sam treated Mercedes like his queen. Love was the only thing in the air. He gave her the best of him. A night spent exploring. He wanted her to remember the night before she went back to L.A.
Sam and Mercedes were lying in Sam's bed on their backs when Sam sat up to see her face.
"So tomorrow is our last time together." Sam said with a sad tone in his voice. Mercedes sat up to comfort him. She knew how he felt because she felt the same way. "Yes," Mercedes said as she kissed Sam on his cheek. She didn't even want to think about leaving Sam here in Lima. She wanted to cherish the moments of her being here with him. Sam made her happy but thinking of going back to L.A. made her sad. "Let's not think about it," She said as she laid her head on his shoulder.
"It's hard not to," Sam said brushing her hair. "I know baby," Mercedes replied. Sam and Mercedes fell asleep in each other's arms. They feel asleep knowing they were with each other not thinking of the next day.
In the morning Sam woke up before Mercedes and fixed her and his whole family breakfast. Sam's parents got home late from their dinner last night. Mercedes had to get in the bed with Stacey when his parents got home. Sam and Mercedes knew their parents would kill them if they knew Sam and Mercedes slept all night in the same bed.
Mercedes was the first to get up after Sam because of her blaring alarm she had set on her phone. The alarm was just another reminder of the distance from Sam she would have to face. She took a shower in Stacey's bathroom. She did everything slow so she didn't have to face seeing what she had to leave behind. "Good morning baby," Sam said as Mercedes walked into the kitchen.
"Good morning." She wrapped her arms around his waist where he was cooking at the stove. He turned in her arms and wrapped his arm around her. He just stared at her for a minute. "What?" Mercedes felt self conscious as he looked at her.
"Did you know how beautiful you are?" Mercedes smiled and looked down at her feet. Tears came to her eyes. She didn't want to leave someone as perfect as Sam. "Are you ok?" Sam went to raise her chin but she turned around before he could do it. She wiped her eyes. "Yea I'm ok," She said as she walked to the table and sat down to eat. "Are you sure?" Sam knelt down by her chair. "Yea baby, let's eat."
Since his parents weren't awake, they ate alone. They talked about the fun spring break and how both of them were doing well in school. Once done Mercedes packed her stuff to leave and put on her shoes. She promised her mom that she and Sam would go to the Jones' house before she left.
The car on the way to the Jones's house was rode in a comfortable silence. Mercedes and Sam didn't let go of each other's hands until they got out of the car. When walking to the front porch they entangled their hands back together.
Mercedes tensed when Sam rang the door bell. He knew that seeing her dad was not something she wanted to do before she left. Before the door opened Sam kissed Mercedes on the forehead and squeezed her hand to let her know he was there. The front door opened and she was met with the eyes of her father.
I don't know if this would be considered a cliff hanger. I'm so tired. Next Chapter would obviously be the visit to the Jones' and Mercedes leaving. I hope you enjoyed. Please please please with a cherry on top review. Glee in two days! We got our Samcedes back guys! Until next time. Love you.
