Chapter 2

After her encounter with Sam, Mercedes went down to business and concentrated on her study session. She barely looked around to see what was happening around her. Her grades were one of the most important things because she needed to keep her scholarship and she wanted to be a good contender for the law school admissions run later in her college life. A few hours later, Mercedes was on her way to her dorm to get ready for work. With her iPod on shuffle and listening to her favorite jams, Mercedes felt ready for the work shift ahead of her. Working as a server at one of the trendiest cafés nearby school had its benefits. Since she started working there around two weeks ago, she has managed to get good tips, to have a reasonable schedule to juggle her academic life properly and she has enjoyed getting the chance to know the people from around the town and from around the campus.

On her way to work, Mercedes remembered the incident with Sam and how things turned out between them. She knew she was right to ask him to help her after he stumbled with her but everything else was a mess. She did not know him, yet she spat a very certain and clear opinion about him based on practically nothing. Yes, what he was wearing probably cost more than what she could earn in two months, still, she did not know a thing about him to tell him the things she did.

"What's on your mind, Mercedes?" Her co-worker and friend, Joe Hart, asked her. Joe was a few years older than Mercedes and was known around town as Teen Jesus because he was a devoted Christian.

"Oh… Hey… Joe! It's nothing. I was just thinking about something silly." Mercedes answered while putting her purse inside her locker. "I had this strange incident with a guy at the library earlier."

"Interesting." He said wiggling his eyebrows.

"Get you head out of the gutter, Joe." Mercedes said playfully hitting him in the shoulder.

"Hey! Just because I'm Christian doesn't mean I don't know about things." He answered rubbing his shoulder.

"Anyways, it's not what you think. What happened was that I was on my way to the library and this guy I have never seen in my life bumped with me and knocked my things down. I asked him to help me and he didn't. I called him an asshole, sorry for the curse; he answered me telling me his name and I just stormed away from him." She recounted as they walked to their work area.

"That's not a big thing."

"The thing is that he followed me and he asked me if I did not know who he was and I told him that he was just some snobbish asshole that thought that looks and money can get him away with everything." Mercedes said with a hint of embarrassment.

"Oh… That changes everything. Why did you say that? I mean, if you don't know who he is. In what exactly did you base that judgment about him?"

"I don't know. Perhaps, because of the way he was dressed."

"That's not a valid reason."

"I know, I know. I was just frustrated at the situation but I regretted what I said as soon as he walked away."

"Don't worry, Mercedes. It's over, you can't turn back time and probably he must have forgotten about everything by now. Just make sure that if you are in the same situation in the future you will act differently."

"I'll try." She said with a shy smile.

"That's my girl!"

XXXXX

During his study session, Sam never concentrated or at least tried to pay attention to his classmate. His mind was replaying what happened with the nameless girl over and over again. He was upset at himself for not getting her name and he wanted to know her name, he needed that information not because he was getting romantically interested in her but because he could not believe, she did not know who he was. Who in their right mind doesn't know who I am? I am one of the most popular guys around campus and one of the richest. Unbelievable! He thought.

"Dude, I'm sorry but this study session is no longer working. We have been here for the longest time and I still don't get a thing." Sam said.

"I'm sorry. Am I not making myself clear?" His classmate asked.

"No. You are making yourself perfectly clear. It's me who doesn't care about a word your saying."

"But-"

"Don't worry about. I will find my way to score an A." He interjected as he stood up and left his classmate stunned.

As he walked to the library's exit, he tried to look for the girl who a few hours ago left him speechless but she was nowhere to been seen.

"Shit! Where is she? I need to find her!" He whispered to himself.

While he tried to glance around one last time to see if maybe she moved to another table, someone approached him.

"Hey handsome!" A girl said seductively in his ear.

Sam rolled his eyes and slowly turned around to see who the girl was. The least he wanted to do at that moment was to deal with girls that were not his unknown library girl. "What do you want, Quinn?"

"That depends on you." She said placing her hands on his chest.

He gently removed her hands off his chest and said, "Quinn… Baby…" Quinn was getting oversentimental and she started to blink as rapidly as her heartbeats. "When are you going to understand that I am not interested in you and that I will never be? Stop following me; stop proposing ideas about us because we are never going to happen. Just a little warning, if you do it one more time I will get a restriction order against you." Sam said close to her ear. He pulled away from her personal space, alluringly smiled at her, blew her a kiss and left her standing there with her eyes full of tears.

After his fluke with Quinn, Sam left campus for his lunch meeting with Finn. Since he did not know where to find him, he called him. After a couple of rings, Finn picked up the call.

"What's up, Evans?" A cheerful Finn answered.

"Where you at, dude?" Sam said dryly.

"I'm at the café down Yale Blvd. Can I ask you something?"

"What?" Sam said annoyed.

"Why are you mad?"

"Nothing major. I've just been bumping into people." Sam spat.

"Care to share?" Finn asked curiously.

"I'll tell you everything as soon as I get there." Sam answered and hung up.

Sam drove to the café, dropped his SUV at the valet and walked into the café. He has not been there in the past weeks so; he was unaware of the changes around the place. The host walked him to where Finn was seated and as soon as he put his butt on the seat the interrogation began.

"With whom did you run into today?"

"Dude, I bumped into this girl. Wow! Dude, I can't get her out of my mind." He said running his fingers through his hair.

"Damn! Could she be the one?" Finn teased.

Sam gave him the death glare. "Oh… Fuck off, Hudson! What I mean is that she's like no other girl I've seen before."

"So, she's someone we don't know, right?"

"Yes! She's just different to the rest of the silly girls that we know." Sam said too smiley for Finn liking.

"What's so special about her?"

"Everything! The fact that she speaks what's on her mind not caring about anything. Dude, she insulted me and honestly I was flattered."

"What?" Finn said astonished.

"She left me speechless and I didn't even care or try to fight her."

"Sam Evans got bitten by the love bug." Finn quipped.

"Again… Fuck off! Anyways, the other person I ran into to was Quinn."

"Oh shit! Quinn Fabray, the paranoid stalker?"

"Damn Finn… can you be more cruel?" Sam said laughing.

"Whatever." Finn said uncaringly.

In that moment, Sam looked around the restaurant and he saw the mystery girl who was driving his day upside down. He felt the same stinging feeling he felt when he walked away from her earlier. His heart was beating faster than normal and suddenly his hands started to sweat.

"Sam, are you ok?" Finn asked concerned.

"I'll be right back." Sam answered and left the table.

The closer he got to her, the more nervous he got and still he could not understand why. She was just a girl, a girl he has never seen in his life yet, she was the girl that called him up on his bullshit and did not care about not knowing him at all.

"Hey!" He said.

Mercedes took a deep breath and slowly turned around. She recognized that voice from earlier in the day and she was surprised to run into him twice in one day.

"Umm… Hi!" Mercedes said. "Look, I am going to keep it short because as you can see I'm on the clock. I'm sorry for what happened earlier at library. I don't know you and I said some things I shouldn't so, please accept my apology." Mercedes said sincerely.

Sam surprised to see her so calm started to laugh.

"What's so funny?" Mercedes asked confused.

"I don't care about your stupid apology. Actually, I felt flattered with your insults. I only came up because I want you to give me your name. I need the name of the girl who didn't give two flying fucks about insulting a stranger." Sam said shamelessly.

"You have got to be kidding me." Mercedes replied annoyingly confused.

"Nope." He said emphasizing the last syllable. "Are you going to give me your name?" He added with a lopsided grin.

Mercedes was fuming. She could not believe she even tried to apologize to him. He did not deserve an apology or anything like that. He was a douchebag plain and simple and she was going to play his game. She looked at him charmingly and smiled.

"Yes I am going to tell you my name. My name is… You can rot in hell!"

As soon as she said that, she turned around and went back to her duties leaving him speechless once again.

**A/N: Thoughts? Yes/No? Liked it or Hate it? Should I keep this alive or should I kill it?
