This is a very long chapter just so you know! I'm putting up a poll for this story on my profile so please answer. I know with the way this chapter went it's obvious where I'm heading. REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW PLEASE!
"Uh!" Sam panted as he rolled off of Finn and onto the bed next to him. "Damn it dude, what a day!" Sam wiped sweat off of his forehead as he looked over at Finn, who was panting as well.
"I know! We've been fucking on and off all day, well most of the day, it's three freaking thirty." Finn rolled on his side and made out with Sam. Sam rolled on his side as well to make out with Finn better.
"I'm tired!" Sam smiled at the tall teen.
"I'm up for a long break then!" Finn smiled back as he lightly caressed Sam's chest while Sam did the same to him.
Sam smiled brighter and rolled onto Finn as they made out passionately. Finn rubbed his hands down his friend's smooth back and held his butt tightly. "I'm gonna go out on the porch and read, maybe take a nap." The blonde teen said while looking into the tall teen's eyes and stroking his short hair.
"Go right ahead!" Finn said and kissed Sam as they got up. Finn took his condom off and discarded it as Sam got shorts on. Finn, still naked, stood behind Sam and wrapped his arms around him and kissed his back. Finn lightly kissed his shoulder and then Sam turned his head and they made out again. Sam extended his arm back and held Finn's head as they made out.
"I'm gonna go now!" Sam said and stepped away. He grabbed his book and smiled as he left the room, slapping Finn's bare ass as he left. Finn got shorts on and went into the family room to watch some TV. Sam laid on the couch on the patio and read for about a half hour but found that he could barely keep his eyes open. He put his book down and rested his eyes, the warm breeze blowing through the screened patio and warming his skin. Sam quickly drifted off into a nice sleep.
Finn came out a few minutes later to see Sam sleeping there. He walked over to him and put a light blanket on him because it was cooling down already a little bit. Finn started to walk back inside but took a glance back at the sleeping boy. He smiled a half smile and knelt down in front of him. He looked around him to make sure no one was around outside. He leaned forward and softly touched his lips to his friend's lips. Finn lightly made out with Sam, the butterflies flew like crazy in his stomach. The quarterback slipped his hand under the blanket and caressed his hand down Sam's warm bare chest and then back up it. Finn lightly kissed his friend's chin, then his neck, and then the top of his chest. Finn brushed the blanket off of the blonde boy and kissed down the rest of his chest while his hands groped the nipples. Finn went back up and kissed Sam's soft lips again before standing up. He covered the sleeping boy back up with the blanket before going back inside. That kiss meant more than sex, just as their kisses lately have felt like as well, but he wanted to try it again and it confirmed that he is developing feelings that were more than just friendship and sexual.
Sam too was developing something more, because he was half awake while Finn was kissing him just then… and it felt amazing. However it triggered a dream that turned into a nightmare. In this dream Sam and Finn were on a piano in the 69 position sucking each other off. Sam cam first into Finn's mouth and Finn choked on the cum. Sam raised his head to apologize to Finn for not warning him and noticed they were in the choir room on the piano… the whole glee club was there watching them, even the piano guy was sitting at the piano. "Shit!" Sam said and hopped off the piano and looked for his clothes. Sam was speechless and Finn just lied there on the piano saying stuff like 'I thought you would want to ride me because you love to so much.' Sam didn't wake up then though, he had other dreams and nightmares like that for a few more hours until finally he woke up. "Ah!" Sam sat up suddenly, panting and sweating.
"Dude what's wrong?" Finn asked, he was sitting out on the patio, he had just ordered pizza and took it out there.
"I had a bad dream." Sam said as he wiped sweat off his forehead.
"Are you gonna tell me it?"
"We were caught in the act by all the other kids in glee."
"That's not going to happen." Finn said and paused, he got a little sad because of what he was about to say. "We agreed at the beginning that this would stop when we got back to Lima."
"But I think I had the dream because I don't want to stop anymore. I mean now I do but at the same time I don't. I mean we both said it felt different recently and it does, it feels better and I want more. I don't want to end it but I'm afraid our friends will find out if we don't."
"They won't. We have a few more days; let's make a decision closer to the time we have to leave. I think right now we both want to continue this after our vacation, but I know we both don't want to risk being caught and I don't think we will, I mean we have rooms that lock and we'd be more careful in Lima."
"Yeah you're right, it was a scary dream though."
"I bet, it's not that there is anything wrong with being gay but you don't want to go through with the hardships it brings sometimes… either do I. We'll figure it out, for now let's eat pizza." Finn chuckled. Sam spontaneously kissed Finn hard on the mouth.
"Thank you!" Sam said with a smile on and then grabbed a slice of pizza. Finn smiled at him and then stood up, turned the patio lights off, knelt down in front of Sam, and climbed under the blanket. It was almost pitch black as Sam felt his fly being un-zippered and his member getting pulled out. Sam felt his friend's warm mouth wrap around his erect member and move up and down. "Mm!" Sam moaned and leaned his head back and put his hands on his face before running them through his hair. Sam grabbed Finn's head and pulled it up and leaned over and found his friend's lips in the shred of moonlight. "Let's just enjoy some pizza!" Sam whispered although he was hard and getting sucked felt great.
"Ok!" Finn whispered and sat back next to him while Sam put his member back into his pants. Finn turned the lights back on and the two started eating pizza. Sam wanted to spend time with his friend and not just have sex, even though it was amazing! Finn was also happy to just sit and talk with Sam.
"Can I ask you something?"
"Of course dude!"
"Have you ever had feelings of curiosity towards boys before we started doing things?"
"Nope, I never thought of it before, Kurt had a crush on me last year so I've had a boy be into me but I've never thought about doing any of this; not kissing, not touching, not even jerking off in the same room as a boy… no curiosity whatsoever." Finn said and looked at Sam and paused for a few seconds. "What about you?"
"Well you know the boy I told you about that showed me his junk?"
"Yeah!" Finn nodded, wondering where this was going.
"Well I didn't want to do anything with him but I thought about what it would be like because of the situation I was in. But like I said I wasn't interested at all."
"Knowing what you know now, would you have done anything with him?"
Sam thought for a second but shook his head no. "This is girlish but I'm glad you were the first boy that I experimented with… you were the first person. That boy wasn't a really close friend but you are and I think that made experimenting better and all the sex that came after better, doing it with someone close to you." Sam smiled at Finn who smiled back. Finn definitely thought that was girly but it meant a lot because he agreed, although Sam wasn't his first, he was his first boy.
"I agree. I did lose my virginity to Santana but it didn't mean anything really… I find out that you mean more to me with every passing day." Finn said. This conversation was really girlish but they both wanted to get it off their chests.
"You too bro!" Sam said and Finn grabbed his face and kissed him. Sam kissed back as that kiss turned into making out. The shirtless boys groped each other's bare chests as they made out vigorously. They stopped several seconds later and ate more pizza with smiles on their faces.
"You want to go for a walk?" Finn asked.
"It's dark out!"
"It doesn't matter, it's a very safe neighborhood. It's not even as cold as it was suppose to be tonight either."
"Didn't we get enough exercise today?" Sam smiled.
"But you're Sam Evans, you over exercise all the time."
"Not in the way we did today!" Sam chuckled. "Whatever let's go, it's not everyday we are in Florida!"
"Let's go." Finn said and they got up, got shirts on, and walked out of the house. "Do you want to play some tennis? There's a tennis court in this little community, along with a playground and a public pool, well it's a gated pool for the community."
"We can bring tennis rackets sure!" Sam said. The two boys walked around the community before going to the tennis court. "Are you good at tennis?"
"I've played with some of the neighborhood kids but I'm about as good at tennis as I am at dancing." Finn said. Sam burst out laughing. Finn smiled and lightly threw a tennis ball at Sam's chest. "It's not that funny."
"I know, I don't know why I laughed that hard."
"You're funny Sam!"
"You're dancing is funny." Sam said and chuckled. "I'm kidding dude… well you aren't the best dancer but you aren't as horrible as everyone thinks." Sam said to be nice.
"Thank you! You're impressions aren't as bad as everyone thinks they are."
"My impressions are amazing!"
"I was kidding, you are really good at them. Anyway, how are you at tennis?"
"Pretty good! I do a lot to keep fit, tennis is one of things I do every once in a while. Getting a body like mine is not easy at all."
"I know, plus you told me everything you eat in the locker room that one time."
"You're body is great even though you don't do what I do. Seriously, you have a really nice body. Like I've been telling you this whole vacation, you shouldn't be ashamed of your body and you should not be jealous of mine. Tomorrow, when we go to Peanut Island I'm going to prove it to you, I've been trying to boost your self esteem on this all week, so tomorrow we are going to walk around the beach at Peanut Island without shirts on and we will see how many girls give you a double take."
"Nobody would give me a double take when I'm walking next to you."
"Stop it dude, if I'm not going to be negative here then you can't be negative either. Girls will give you a double take. Now can we stop talking about how good each other's bodies look, it makes us sound not straight!" Sam said.
"Oh, on this vacation, that's what makes us look not straight?" Finn said with a chuckle and then gave Sam that adorable half smile of his.
"Yes, that' what makes us look not straight!" Sam said sarcastically as he chuckled. Sam gave Finn his adorable smile while Finn still had a half smile on his face. They stared at each other as happy as ever, it turned out to be a nice warm night and they were with each other. For the first time Sam realized just how cute Finn's half smile was and Finn realized just how cute Sam's big lips were.
"Do you want to serve?" Finn finally asked to break the silence.
"Sure!" Sam said and walked to other side of the court. As he walked away from Finn he was kind of confused but happy at the same time. There wasn't a doubt in his mind that the last day or two hasn't been way different then before; could he be falling for his best friend who stood just across the court from him, could he be turning gay for Finn Hudson. At the moment he wasn't going to think about it, he was happy and that was good enough for him. Finn had the same feelings; he was sure he was falling for Sam Evans. "Are you ready for this?" Sam asked as he turned around.
"I think I am." Finn smiled and said, he was ready for more then just the serve; he was pretty sure he was ready to further his friendship with Sam and maybe try something more.
"What do you mean you think? Can you handle this?"
"Yes!" Finn said confidently and threw the racket to the ground and walked confidently over to Sam. Sam was not expecting that, he didn't know what to expect really. Finn grabbed Sam's racket and threw it to the ground before grabbing the blonde's head and pressing it firmly against his; giving his friend a firm kiss. A couple seconds later Finn let go of his head and looked into his beautiful eyes.
"Shit!" Sam said happily while looking into Finn's eyes. They were both mesmerized by each other in a whole new way.
"I know!" Finn said and paused for a few more seconds. "Well, you can serve now." Finn said and turned around kind of awkwardly but at the same time he was happy. Sam bit his lip as he thought about how great that kiss felt.
"Wait!" Sam said and ran to Finn. The tall teen turned around and the blonde boy jumped into his arms and made out with him. The butterflies in their stomachs fluttered like never before as their hearts beat rapidly. Several seconds later Sam backed away from Finn, they were in public and as good as it felt, they shouldn't be making out in public. "Ok, I'll serve now." Sam smiled at Finn who smiled back. Sam smiled all the way to his racket and picked it up and hit the ball across the court to Finn who successfully hit it back. They played for a while until they got really tired and wanted to go back. On the walk back they passed the community pool.
"Dude, that water is freezing! No joke, it seriously almost feels like it's ice." Finn said.
"Wow, sounds harsh, good thing you have your own pool."
"Yeah, I dare you to jump in this one though."
"No way!"
"I'll do it if you do it!"
"Really?" Sam asked.
"Yeah, we can run right home and get in the hot tub." Finn said.
Sam sighed. "Fine!" Finn smiled and unlocked the pool gate and the two teens went into the pool area. They put their phones and tennis equipment on the deck.
"Don't even feel the water, let's just jump in!" Finn grabbed Sam's hand and the two ran and jumped off of the edge into the cold water.
"Oh shit!" Sam yelled as he came to the surface. He could tell now Finn was not over exaggerating; the water was really freaking cold.
"Oh fuck!" Finn said very loudly.
The two swam to the edge and hopped right out. "Oh shit, you were not kidding!" Sam panted as the cold water dripped from his clothes and body.
"I know, it's so freaking cold." Finn shivered as they picked up their stuff and left the pool area. They raced to the house, which was down the street a little ways. They got there like a minute later, still so cold and so wet.
"I need to get in that hot tub now!" Sam said while Finn unlocked the door. They ran in, locking the door behind them, and instantly ran to the hot tub. Sam hopped right in and dunked his whole body under. Finn hopped in as well and did the same thing. Sam came up right before Finn, who looked at Sam in the moonlight, his body showed through the white t-shirt he's wearing. "Oh god, that's better!" Sam said and then took his wet shirt off and threw it aside. Finn took his shirt off too and they sat across from each other, both of their bodies were fully under the water with their heads sticking out above the surface. "Thought I was going to get hypothermia or something." Sam said.
"Told you it was really cold!"
"Yeah, they need to heat that up… like a lot."
"What do you say we go to bed on the early side tonight so we can get up a little earlier and go to Peanut Island?" Finn asked as he scooted closer to Sam.
"Definitely!" Sam said and turned his head to face Finn's. Finn put his arm around Sam and they made out while Finn's other hand caressed Sam's chest. Sam turned a little towards Finn and wrapped his left arm around his friend's waist and held his cheek with the other. Sam put each of his legs on either side of Finn without distancing their lips. The two teenagers sat in the hot tub with their shorts on just making out for minutes. Finn rubbed his hands up and down Sam's smooth back and through his wet blonde hair. The tall teen wrapped his arms tightly around his friend and began to get out of the hot tub. He laid him on a towel that was on the pool deck and laid on top of him, hardly taking their lips from each other. Sam caressed Finn's back while they passionately made out on the ground. For a few minutes Finn laid on Sam making out vigorously.
"Let's go to bed!" Finn said as he stood up. Finn held his hand out and Sam took it. Finn pulled Sam up to his feet… and to his lips. They groped each other and made out for several seconds. Finn got a dry towel and put it on Sam's head and massaged his head. He took the towel off and Sam's hair was all crazy so he laughed. Sam grabbed the towel and twirled it and whipped Finn with it. "Hey!"
Sam chuckled and whipped him again. He went to do it a third time but Finn grabbed it and pulled it towards him. The tall boy pulled the blonde right into him and gave him another firm kiss. Sam ran with the towel and then turned around and whipped Finn with it again. Then he backed up a little and ran and tackled Finn, both of them flying into the pool. The two came up laughing before Sam wrapped his legs around Finn's waist and Finn held him as they made out yet again. They loved all the kissing and making out they have done tonight… it made this all more romantic then purely sexual. That scared them deep down but they were enjoying it while they could on their brocation; they didn't want to think about it until they got back to Lima.
"Ok seriously, we should go to bed. Tomorrow is a new day and the last day of 2010, we are going to be celebrating in a lot of different ways." Finn smiled and gave Sam a quick peck on the lips before climbing out of the pool. Sam started to climb out of the pool as Finn took his soaking wet shorts off and hung them on a chair.
"Five days ago we didn't want to change in the same room as each other. We've come so far since then!" Sam said as he held a naked Finn from behind and kissed his shoulder.
"We've cum so much too!" Finn lightly chuckled and Sam did too. "Just kidding, I know what you mean, I can't believe it's only been five days, I'm liking the way they have progressed though."
"Me too!" Sam said and Finn turned around and unbuttoned his shorts and took them off and hung them next to his. They really fell hard for each other, they weren't in love by any means but the past five days have left them definitely more then friends or fuck buddies.
"For the third time, let's go to bed." Finn said and the two went inside and locked all the doors. Then they went to their bedroom, put underwear on, and slipped into their warm and cozy bed. In the spooning position, Finn was behind Sam holding him as they drifted into a deep sleep in each other's arms.
The next morning the alarm went off at nine o'clock. The two boys were turned around, Sam behind Finn in the spooning position as they awoke. Sam kissed Finn's shoulder before getting up and turning the alarm off. Finn rubbed his eyes as he tried to fully wake up. Sam jumped up and down on the bed to wake Finn up more. The tall teen smiled and grabbed one of his friend's ankles and pulled it so he fell back on the bed. Sam chuckled as he bounced on the bed before Finn rolled onto him and made out with him. "How did you sleep?" Finn asked.
"Great, no bad dreams!" Sam said.
"Me neither!" Finn said and started to crawl backwards off the bed. He got on his knees on the bed and pulled Sam up to him. The two kneeling boys, wearing nothing but underwear, made out while caressing the other's warm body.
"Let's get going before I take off our clothes and ride your cock all the way to 2011." Sam panted.
"Tempting but we are waiting to swallow each other's load tonight." Finn said and stepped off the bed. He grabbed Sam, who wrapped his legs around Finn, and carried him to the door and pressed him against the door as they made out.
"Ok seriously dude!" Sam said and got down and opened the door. "We need to get on with the day before we end up doing it all day again."
"I know, I know!" The two went to the kitchen and ate some cereal. "I had a fun time playing tennis last night!"
"Me too! And jumping into that freezing cold pool!" Sam said and the two chuckled. "And of course everything else that happened."
"Of course!" Finn agreed. He wheeled his chair right in front of Sam's and kissed him again. They loved the feeling of kissing each other so they have been doing it a lot lately… probably too much really.
"Stop, let's wait until later. We've done like nothing but kissing since we got home last night and since we woke up this morning."
"I'm so excited for later!" Finn said.
"Me too!" Sam said. "Oh, Happy New Year's Eve by the way!"
"Happy New Year's Eve!"
The two got ready and drove out to the marina where a ferry took people back and forth to Peanut Island. They got on the ferry and it took about five minutes to get to Peanut Island. "Can't wait for this!"
"It's fun! Is this your first boat ride?" Finn asked.
"Yeah, I mean we rode jet skis the other day but this is my first time on a boat."
"Just wondering! Sometimes a vacation is about trying new stuff; your first time in Florida, your first time trying certain foods like calamari, you're first time on the boat…" Finn said as he lifted up a finger for each one. "First time trying all that other 'calamari'." Finn said with a brief chuckle, Sam smiled. They un boarded the boat and ran to the beach, finally feeling the warm sand between their toes. They set up two beach chairs in the sand and laid towels out in front of them. Sam and Finn took off their shirts.
"Let's have that double take competition first."
"I'm not…"
"Shut up dude! Don't say you aren't going to win. You helped me with my firsts, now I'm going to help you say for the first time that you have a kick ass body."
"You have a kick ass body!" Finn chuckled. Sam punched him lightly in the stomach.
"I meant you are going to say 'I have a kick ass body'!" Sam said. He knew on paper that he had the better body but Finn was still very good looking and had a great body. "Look at all the girls here, you got this! You walk around first, if we walk together we won't know who some of them are looking at. You can do this dude!" Sam said as he held Finn's arms for support. Finn nodded, not so confident about himself though. Sam sat on the chair and casually watched Finn walk down the beach. Obviously not all girls are going to look at a boy walking down the beach but some girls will just to judge if they are hot or not. Finn was definitely hot in Sam's eyes; his chest, his half smile, his ass, his huge penis, his hips, his eyes, his whole face and body in general were the physical aspects of Finn Sam really liked… so all his physical aspects were what Sam liked about him. Sam also liked the way Finn could make him laugh and make him feel good, not just in a sexual way, and how he can be just a great friend all around. Sam shook his head to snap out of it, was he falling to hard and fast for Finn, last night and this morning have been filled with more romantic elements then just friendly elements; the kissing, the making out, the thoughts, and the talks about it. Sam just needed to slow down and take a breather, but it all felt so good and right. Finn turned around and walked towards Sam. The blonde bit his lip as he watched his tall lean friend walk towards him.
Finn sat down next to Sam. "How did I look?"
"Amazing!"
"A few girls looked at me, thanks man. That actually helped my self esteem." Finn said and rubbed his friend's knee in gratitude.
"I'm glad! You deserve to have higher self esteem… you are really handsome and hot!" Sam said, kind of in a daze.
"Dude, you said yesterday we should stop talking like that."
"I know what I said, but we keep talking about this stuff and we keep doing things that we say we shouldn't talk about or do and I don't think it's going to change. This vacation… this brocation has changed us in so many ways so we need to talk about this stuff. Who knows what's going to happen when we go home but right now we are here, on the brocation that changed our lives. Right now what I think is… I wouldn't have it any other way. Yes I'm scared about the future and what's going to happen when we get to Lima but like I said we aren't in Lima, we are in Florida and I don't know about you but I'm having one of the most fun times I've had in my life." Sam said.
Finn paused for a second, very touched by what Sam said. "You are so right man. This vacation changed us almost the moment we got here. We became closer in everyway and I too am having one of the most fun times I've had in my life."
"I'm glad, let's keep going with the time of our lives then!" Sam said with a smile on. Finn wanted to lean over and kiss that big grin. Finn thought Sam was so hot; his hair, his lips, his chest, his six-pack especially, his penis, his ass were all things that he liked about him. He has noticed that more since yesterday, along with his personality that made Sam an amazing friend.
"I'll show you what I brought it this bag." Finn said and put the bag on his lap. He took out a two pairs of fins, two masks, and two snorkels. "We are going snorkeling!"
"Awesome!" Sam exclaimed.
"I'm guessing you never have been snorkeling."
"No I haven't, we will have to add that to the list of firsts. I'm so excited though." Sam said basically jumping in his seat.
"I can tell!" Finn said and put a mask and snorkel on Sam. The two got their fins on and Finn got his mask and snorkel together and on. "It's easier to walk backwards in these."
"I know, I've seen movies!" Sam said. The two walked backwards to the water. They dove in when they got deep enough. They swam around and saw some amazing reef life and fish. They looked at each other happily throughout the swim and pointed to different cool looking fish and reefs. The water was so refreshing to the boys. They saw all sorts of fish and sea life, some they've seen in pictures and some they have never seen anywhere. It was all so cool and mesmerizing to see, especially up this close. They swam around for minutes on top of minutes just looking at the beautiful life in front of them. They came to the surface, took their fins off, took their masks off their face, and went back to their stuff. Girls checked them both out as they walked dripping wet. "See dude, they are looking at both of our fine bodies." Sam said with a chuckle as they dried themselves off.
"Yeah they are!" Finn agreed and high fived Sam. "Do you want to go for a run around the different parts of the island?"
"Sounds great!" Sam said. The two put their towels down and put their cell phones into their pockets and ran towards the trail. "And I want to actually run for a little while, not jog or walk, an actual run." The two ran on the trail, Sam in front of Finn. "C'mon, catch up!" Finn started to run faster, Sam slowed down a little so they could run next to the other. "I can't believe I'm running in a park on an island. I know some of these things aren't as exciting to some people but I'm new to it."
"I know man!"
"So, this is kind of random but how exactly did you get into Glee?" Sam asked.
"Well I had no interest… well I do like singing but I didn't want to be different from the other boys on the football team so I never pursued it and left singing for the shower and when I'm alone. Mr. Schuester found drugs in my locker one day, which weren't mine by the way; he said he wouldn't tell anyone about the drugs if I joined Glee club. So I joined and told Puck that Mr. Schue said he would give me enough extra credit to pass Spanish if I did. And I started to really care for the members of the club; Rachel…" Finn cleared his throat. "Tina, Artie, Kurt, and Mercedes. We became friends almost instantly. The music bought us together you know?"
"Yeah, when I sung Billionaire with you guys it was awesome and I felt happy… I felt like I really belonged. I'm sorry I didn't audition and chickened out for popularity. I should have followed in your footsteps, you didn't let popularity stop you."
"Yeah but it did matter to me, I just didn't give up Glee… well I did when our coach at the time made me choose between Glee or football. But I came back because they needed me and I needed them. And then of course I left because of the Puck and Quinn thing but I came back again… I always come back. Also, it's ok that you didn't audition right away, you still did eventually and that's what matters."
"I joined Glee because of what you said… you talked me into it. And I'm glad you did!" Sam smiled at Finn who smiled back as they ran.
"I'm glad I did too! Anyway, I have to go to the bathroom, there's one up here so I'll be right out." Finn ran up a separate path to the bathroom. Sam cell rang as he waited.
"Hey!" Sam said after he answered the phone.
"Hey!" Quinn said through the phone. "What are you two up too?"
"We are at Peanut Island. What about you two?"
"We are at Vagina Island!" Quinn joked as she giggled and Sam chuckled. "We are just shopping. We are going to a New Years Eve party tonight that Courtney has been to before. I was actually wondering if you and Finn wanted to go."
"Um!" Sam thought about what to say because Finn and him had plans… maybe just tell her that. "Finn and I have plans already."
"What are you two going to do?"
"We are going to hang around at the house and have a bunch of appetizers and food… and beer." Sam said.
"Aw, that sounds fun, but don't you think you two could come out with us. Who are you going to kiss at midnight if I'm not with you?"
"Um, we already bought the food and everything, I'm sorry. We could hang out tomorrow."
"You didn't answer my question; who are you going to kiss at midnight if I'm not there? Finn?" Quinn joked.
Sam cleared his throat because that's exactly who he will be kissing… and doing other stuff with. "Finn and I have been looking forward to this day and…"
"Whatever!" Quinn interrupted pissed off. "This is our first New Years Eve together and I wanted to kiss my boyfriend at midnight but you can't bother because of you boyfriend on the side…"
"Quinn don't." Sam said. "I came here to be with my buddy Finn. I had no idea you were coming so I have every right to be here with Finn and not you."
"But I am here Sam and I just want to go to a party with you and have fun with you and kiss you at midnight."
"Well I'm telling you I don't want to." Sam said and then regretted saying it instantly even though he didn't mean to be rude about it.
"Fine." Quinn said although it wasn't fine at all. She hung up and Sam sighed as Finn walked back to him.
"What's wrong?" Finn asked.
"That was Quinn. She invited us to a party tonight with her and Courtney and I rudely turned it down so she hung up." Sam said angrily.
"That sucks!" Finn said and patted Sam's shoulder. Finn thought for a few seconds and then sighed. "Dude, we can go to the party to make Quinn happy. I don't want you two to be in a bad place. We can do our thing another time."
"I want to spend the first minutes of the New Year with you though. Not with her that's the thing!" Sam admitted. He chose Finn over Quinn just like they chose the each other over the girls the night Courtney and Quinn spent the night. "Quinn is beautiful and great but I like you more and I want to spend my days here with you. And I don't mean like you like like like you, I mean as a friend and a person… but then again our relationship has changed the past two days and I actually think I might like like you." Sam said, not keeping eye contact with Finn until the last few words.
"I think I like you like that too! Like you said this vacation has changed us. But Quinn is your girlfriend so maybe we should postpone our plans. I mean whenever we swallow each other's loads I am pretty sure we will be each other's first of the year." Finn said and shot Sam a half smile. Sam smiled as well.
"I don't know, I have a lot of boys lining up so…" Sam said but started laughing. Finn pushed him while he chuckled. "But seriously I'm torn. I mean that is so nice of you to give up our plans so I can please my girlfriend but I want to spend that time with you but then again I also feel bad for blowing her off."
"We will go to the party, it could be fun and we will still be hanging out together."
Sam stood there in thought until his phone rang. "It's Courtney!" Sam said and answered. "Hey."
"Quinn is very upset Sam!" Courtney said.
Sam sighed and looked at Finn. "Tell her we are going to the party."
"Really? I don't even know if it will be that easy, she's still going to be mad. What plans did you and Finn have anyway?"
Sam walked away from Finn before answering. "We had private plans, you know the secret, it has to do with that. They were special plans." Sam said and Finn heard the word special and smiled.
"Aw Sam."
"No not aw for me, what would happen if I broke up with her today?" Sam asked and Finn heard.
"Whoa dude no!" Finn said and walked over to him.
"Um…" Courtney was speechless.
"I mean you probably want us too." Sam said to Courtney.
"No Sam I don't, I know I said that I was hoping you would cheat on her that night in the bar but I'm your friend now and I have too bad of a history with people, boys especially, to ruin something for you like that. But don't break up with her unless you truly want to."
"Sam don't!" Finn said.
"I'm going through changes right now but whatever those changes are I know that I would rather hang out with Finn then her."
"I don't want you to hurt her Sam. She's my best friend!" Courtney said. "I understand these changes, I'm in love with my best friend just like you are."
"Whoa, I never said anything about being in love."
"I know but we still are going through the same changes."
"Quinn and I are not working." Sam said.
"Tell me right now that you and Finn will!" Courtney said.
"Dude, we are talking about this before you do anything!" Finn said. "We can go to the party tonight so you can be with Quinn."
"I'm not promising anything but I know that I'm enjoying what I have with Finn right now and I want to continue to enjoy it for the next few days without worrying about Quinn." Sam said, he heard what Finn said and he was happy Finn cares about him enough to fix his relationship with Quinn.
"But why would you give up a relationship that could last for one that you are going to end in a few days?" Courtney asked.
"Why do you care so much? You love her; maybe this will make her vulnerable enough to experiment with you."
"First of all I would rather be her best friend and that would be using her sadness in a bad way, I would never do that; like I've said I've been hurt too many times. I want to have a fun vacation with her… I don't want her hurt."
"So are you saying I should break up with her after we get back to Lima?"
"No I just think you are going to fast and need to slow down and think about what's best for you. Finn is amazing and yes I believe you have chemistry but you don't have anything planned, I know you don't want to go through the hardships of being gay. Yes it could be great but telling the people you love is hard, especially if you get rejected. Quinn likes you a lot Sam and I know you like her, this is just a little roadblock."
"I'll think about it, I don't want her to be sad but I find the more time that goes by, the more I want to hang out with Finn over her. I know it happened fast and I know that it's going to be hard but I like it."
"That's all you know now though and it's great! I just want you to think about it! Let her down easy Sam!" Courtney said, hung up, walked back over to Quinn, and hugged her.
"Don't break up with her for me." Finn said. "I mean as of now we are still planning on stopping the sex when we go back home."
"Even when she first came to Florida a few days ago I was annoyed that I couldn't be hanging out with just you and now that some new feelings came into play, I'm even more annoyed. I want to hang with you bro, sex or not, I prefer our friendship over my relationship with her. And deep down, I feel bad that I'm dating the girl who cheated on you and I feel worse the closer you and I get. So that's why I want to end it with Quinn… it's more then just a on the fly decision, I've been thinking about it for days."
"Well I'm here for you no matter what you choose. If you truly think it's the right thing to do for you, then do it. Quinn had her crazy moments but there were times when you felt she cared."
"I'm still going to think about it but I think I'm gonna break up with her." Sam said. "Can we please just drop it and finish our run?"
"Of course!" Finn said and the two ran off. "But I do want to ask, we are going to the party right?"
"That's what I told her… but I'd rather do what we had planned, a bunch of food, beers, and then you know what." Sam said.
"I'd rather do that too but it will be fun going to a New Years party… and it won't leave Quinn sad and it won't damage your relationship." Finn said. He really did have Sam in mind but he also felt a little jealousy for the couple.
"I guess that's better. But for now I want to drop it like I said."
"Ok for real this time." They got back to their stuff on the beach and laid down on their backs to get some sun. They laid there for a while, sometimes in quiet, sometimes talking, but they enjoyed each other's company the whole time while the sun shined on their warm bare skin.
Quinn and Courtney arrived at Courtney's house after shopping, Quinn was much happier when Courtney told her Sam was coming to the party. She was a little mad about how Sam said he doesn't want to but at least he decided to come. "I'm going to text Sam the time because I didn't tell him on the phone. What time do you think we will go?" Courtney asked.
"Not right at the beginning, I kind of just want to go for a little bit. What about like eleven?"
"That's good!" Courtney said and then texted Sam.
Sam picked up his phone and texted back ok thanks. "We have until eleven so we could still do our food and maybe have a beer. It would be breaking the rule but it's New Year's Eve, a time to party." Sam said. "They won't find out!"
"Yeah! Sounds good!" Finn said.
"We've been laying here for a while, let's go swimming again."
"You can, I just want to relax for now."
"We've been relaxing like this for a while though." Sam said as he stood up and hit Finn's stomach. "Let's go snorkeling."
"Uh fine!" Finn sighed and got up. They got the snorkeling gear on and yet again went to the water. Finn fell backwards this time on the way in and Sam turned and fell forwards on top of him as they laughed. Sam quickly got off of him and they swam out. They snorkeled for a while and it was fun. When they went back to the shore they laid down again on their stomachs to give their backs some sun.
The two relaxed, walked, and talked for a couple more hours until they decided to go home. "That was a fun day!" Sam said.
"Yeah. Now let's make some appetizers."
"Yum!"
"You ok Sam?" Finn asked and set his hand on his friend's shoulder.
"Mhm!" Sam said without making eye contact with Finn.
"C'mon dude, we talk, maybe other bros don't talk the way we do but that's not us."
"It's about Quinn, aren't I technically cheating on her with you?" Sam asked.
"I have thought about that before. And I guess yes, you did cheat. I'm going to be honest, there is no technically, you did cheat on her. Crap, how could I be so stupid?" Finn said in anger. "I made a cheater out of you when cheating is what hurt me so much last year. You cheated on the girl that cheated on me… with me."
Sam sighed and started leaving the room, he was angry with himself. "Damn it!"
"Sam, I am so sorry. I thought since it was experimenting that it would just be that and maybe wouldn't count as cheating. But then we got more serious and I thought about if it was cheating but I still didn't stop it. I couldn't stop it! I was so naïve to think that it wasn't cheating and that it was ok."
"This just adds to the reasons I should break up with her. I cheated on her and I was naïve too to not think about it until today. And two days ago, just two…" Sam said while holding up to two fingers. "I told Courtney Quinn was the second best thing to happen to me at McKinley. Today, I don't know if that's true anymore. She is amazing but I don't know… I don't even know everything that's going on in my head right now." Sam said and punched the wall.
"Whoa man." Finn said and grabbed Sam from behind and held him in place as Sam started to break down. "You're going to be ok!"
"My first girlfriend and I cheat on her. What else is going to go wrong in my life? My house might be taken away from my family, a lot of my family's money is going to gone, and I cheated on my girlfriend while being already in a bad place with her because of one snarky comment. And not that this is bad but I'm falling for a boy… for you. I'm going to have to deal with coming out now." Sam said breathing heavily.
"Sam calm down!" Finn said still holding him. "Nobody said anything about coming out or being gay with me. For now we are just enjoying each other's company and loving what has been happening with each other. Yeah we are changing but we are doing whatever we do together. And that's the same for the other stuff; I'm going to help you through all of it because that's what bros do… that's what we do."
Sam fell slowly to the ground in Finn's arms. Finn sat on the ground against the cabinets, holding Sam in his arms, who sat with his back against Finn. "My life is going to suck!"
"We will get through it dude!" Finn said. It was saddening to see Sam like this and to see all the stuff he had to go through. "Enjoy yourself for three more days…"
"You always say not to worry about it now and just to enjoy the vacation and I've been doing that but I think it's going to be too hard now. This is all so stressful and it's really starting to ruin the vacation." Sam said with a look on his face that conveyed his sadness and anger well.
"Come here." Finn said and got up and held out his hand for Sam to grab.
"What are we going to do?"
"We are going to listen to music because music is a way for us to forget our problems and we are going to continue the night as planned. We have a while before we have to go to that party and I don't want to sit here watching you be sad when fun is what could take your mind off of it. But first, we need to get this sand and salt water off of us. So, you are going take a shower in the big shower and I'll take one in my bathroom." Finn said.
"Really?"
"Yeah, I want you and I to be serious about you not cheating on Quinn. I can tell that's really what you want."
"I mean I want to take a shower with you but I shouldn't and it bothers me that I cheated but I still enjoyed all the stuff we did. But I think for now it's a good idea not to do anything because it will continue to bother me. It's hard for both of us but thank you, for respecting my decision and helping me with everything else. That makes you an even better friend." Sam said and went to the bathroom in Finn's mom's room. He closed and locked the door, turned on the shower, and climbed under the water. He instantly started to bawl his eyes out. He sat on the ground under the pouring water with his face in his hands as he sobbed. He did not want to cry in front of Finn again, he just wanted to sit in private and cry. But then again he kind of wished Finn was in there with him but he couldn't be in there. Sam wanted this to be over, he needed to break up with Quinn so at least he could have Finn back. It wasn't working with Quinn anyway, Finn had a lot to do with that; if Sam and Finn never fooled around they probably wouldn't have started to fall for each other and Sam wouldn't have been more annoyed by Quinn then pleased with her for being in Florida and he also wouldn't have felt horrible for cheating on her. Sam sat there and thought about everything, including how him and Finn can't have their special New Years Eve night now… it's all because of Quinn.
Finn got out of his shower a few minutes later and got dressed. He walked out to the kitchen to see Sam preparing the food. Finn noticed Sam looked sad still. "Hey!"
"Hey!" Sam said. "I put some nachos with cheese on them in the oven."
"Awesome… are you ok?"
"Don't bring it up. You were right telling me from day one that I need to enjoy this while I'm here so that's what I'm doing. I don't have to worry about the home stuff until I get there and I don't have to worry about Quinn until tonight." Sam said and took two beers out of the fridge and handed one to Finn.
"Thanks!"
"And also, I picked this out special!" Sam said and took calamari out and set it in front of Finn before turning away to check the oven, he sighed thinking about the calamari and what that symbolized for the two. Finn smiled when he saw the package.
"Awesome!" Finn said and Sam turned to him and gave him a half smile. Finn opened his beer. "Cheers." Sam opened his and walked closer to Finn. "To the new year that's coming up, to this place, to us, and to the brocation." Finn said as he held his beer up.
"To that… to the brocation!" Sam smiled and they pushed their beers together and then took some sips.
"Let's get some music on!" Finn said and put his iPod on the kitchen stereo. Finn started doing an air guitar and Sam laughed. Finn was happy to make Sam happy again. Sam started doing it too, the two rocked out in the kitchen and ate food and just had an all around good time for hours… too many hours though. It was almost midnight and they had totally forgotten about the party. They had drunken quite a few beers throughout the hours and now they were slow dancing in the kitchen while Unchained Melody played on the stereo.
Sam looked into Finn's eyes and rubbed his hand across his friend's face. Sam leaned forward and Finn started to do the same. Their lips met and sparks flew as they kissed each other. The kissed as they danced in the dimmed light. They were interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Oh shit!" They both said at the same time. Sam went and opened the door to find Quinn and Courtney standing outside.
"Oh crap, I am so sorry Quinn, we lost track of time and…"
"Stop Sam! I forgive you!" Quinn said and Sam could not believe what he heard. "Courtney, can you and Finn go talk in the kitchen or something?"
"Of course." Courtney said and walked into the kitchen with Finn. Quinn stepped inside and shut the door.
"You forgive me?" Sam asked.
"Yes. I know there has been tension between us. I don't want to lose you Sam so my New Year's resolution is to keep you as long as it works. And to keep myself together for the New Year. You are special to me so I'm forgiving you. I understand that you need guy time and that's what you came down here for. So are we good?"
Sam smiled at Quinn and all of the thoughts about breaking up with her disappeared for that moment. Quinn was an awesome girl for forgiving him like that. "We are good!" Sam said and leaned forward to kiss her but she turned her head.
"We have another minute until midnight and then we can kiss. Oh and by the way, the party was lame without Finn and you." Quinn hugged Sam and they danced as they listened to the end of Unchained Melody.
Finn walked out of the kitchen and looked at Quinn and Sam slow dancing. Jealousy took over him as he watched the couple. "Don't be jealous Finn." Courtney whispered to him as she approached him. "I know it's hard. Quinn couldn't stop thinking about Sam while at the party. I'm kind of jealous but I put that aside because Sam is a good guy and I want her to be happy. I know she can't be with me so I settle for her having a sweetheart as a boyfriend."
"But I feel like Sam could be with me."
"It will be hard Finn but if it's meant to work out like that it will. I was meant to have a happy life but I had to go through a lot of hardships first." Courtney said and rubbed Finn's back. Finn looked at the TV, which Sam and him had on a New Years celebration. The countdown was on and it was at 10 seconds. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Finn looked at Sam and hoped somehow they could get the girls to leave and kiss passionately but no, Sam hardly glanced at Finn before kissing Quinn. Finn rolled his eyes and went into the kitchen.
"I can't put that jealousy aside. I was a good friend to Sam for talking him into giving Quinn a chance and not letting him cheat on her with me anymore but it still hurts."
"I know it hurts. But you're a better friend for doing that for him and doing everything you do for him. I think being a friend is better then what most likely won't happen… for me at least. But you, things are looking better for you because Sam shares the feelings."
"Yeah." That's all Finn could say. Then his phone rang and he sighed when he looked at the name; it was Rachel. "Hello."
"Happy New Year!" Rachel said.
"Thanks you too!"
"Finn, I have a couple things to tell you. First, my New Year's resolution is to make things right in my life, not just with you but also with everybody and everything. It's also to keep pursuing my dream to the fullest and not giving up like it has been for years." Rachel said. Courtney looked at a saddened Finn on the phone and felt the urge to kiss him; to comfort him and because they didn't have anyone to kiss for New Years. Courtney leaned forward and kissed Finn, he was shocked but he kissed back. "And the second thing is… Finn? Are you there?" Rachel asked and heard two lips smacking. She gasped as she heard Finn kissing someone.
"Happy New Year!" Rachel heard another girl say through the phone to Finn. Rachel gasped again and threw her phone at her bed. She sat on her bed and cried into her hands; Finn had found another girl so quickly.
"Rachel?" Finn asked through the phone. He was so fazed about the kiss he hung up on Rachel. He still hadn't forgiven her so he didn't really owe her anything.
"I'm sorry, we kissed before and I wanted to kiss you again because it's a new year and you were sad."
"It's ok Courtney." Finn said. "Happy New Year." Courtney smiled at him and he smiled back. "I'm going to call my mom and Burt so… yeah."
"I'm going to call Jim, you know the guy that helped me when I was at my lowest." Courtney said.
"Yeah… wait, do you talk to your family at all anymore?"
"No, Jim is my family now. They made it very clear that they hate me."
"Well for the record, Sam and I care about you. Quinn obviously does too!" Finn said and gave her a half smile.
"That means a lot thank you!" Courtney smiled at him before leaving the room to call Jim. Finn called his family and wished them a happy New Year and talked about the vacation so far.
Finn walked out of the kitchen and saw Sam and Quinn still dancing to the music. Sam looked at him and Finn gave him a half smile. Sam smiled back and Finn mouthed happy New Year. Sam mouthed it back and at that moment everything came back to him; his thoughts on breaking up with Quinn, the cheating on her, his family back at home struggling, the amazing friendship he has built with Finn, and the stuff Finn and him have done. Finn turned and walked to his room and Sam could tell he was sad… Sam was sad too. He didn't know what would happen with Finn but he knew he wanted to be available in case anything did.
"Quinn… we need to talk!" Sam said as they backed away from each other slowly, their hearts racing because Sam was nervous and Quinn didn't know what to expect but from Sam's tone she had an idea of what he was about to say.
This was the last chapter before the break! But, I have been considering doing this and TKL and only taking a break from PTR but I have not decided yet. The break would be the rest of March and most if not all of April. New poll: Do you want me to continue the story after they leave Florida and show them in Lima trying to come to terms with this new love and coming out to their family and friends? PM me or review other thoughts about it or the story in general please.
I've said it before but I have a section at the bottom of my profile where I put when the stories should be updated by and other notes about the stories.
