Neither glee nor it's characters belong to me just this story.
Sam was sitting on Rachel's bed looking the room, it was very different from her room in NY. You can see clearly how much Rachel had changed in the last year. Sam noticed a particular object, he got up from the bed and he went to see that object, he took it with his hands and he stared at it.
-I love that picture- said the brunette behind Sam, then he turned his head to face her -when he was singing in the choir room the thing that I loved the most was watch him playing the drum and when he noticed that I was looking at him, he used to smile at me with his particular and handsome smile and everytime he did that he made me blush-.
Sam smiled -the first time that I heard you guys sing he smiled at me that way and then he found me just to asked me if I wanted to join-.
Rachel took Sam's hand and she drag him to her bed, she sit down on the right side of the bed and then she took off her shoes when she finished she climbed into the bed, Sam was still holding the picture in his hands.
Rachel turn up her head and she saw that Sam's eyes were red and bright, watching that made that one tear streamed down on her face, Sam looked at her and he enclosed her with one of his arms, in that way Rachel's head was resting in his chest.
-I'm still missing him like crazy- said the brunette which had started to cry and Sam was crying too.
-I know, sometimes I think that one day i'll go back to that choir room and he will be next to cheering the future glee club kids and giving them advice and keeping them united when they threatened with quitting- Rachel let out a slight laugh listening to the blond as he kept talking -Finn was one of my best friends, we had our disagreements with the whole Quinn thing but I knew that I could trust him and during the months that I was living with him we became really good friends-.
Rachel kept smiling at Sam – I know that in the last months we weren't very close, but I knew that I can always count on him and I knew that in the future we will get back together and then nothing would ever break us apart again- Sam pressed more the brunette against his body and kissed her on the forehead. They kept that way for awhile without saying anything until Rachel moved and Sam take away his arm from Rachel's back - if you don't mind i'm going to change my clothes and prepare something to drink and I'll bring a little thing that you're going to love- Rachel smiled as she said that last thing and that made Sam intrigued.
Sam passed his hands through his hair and took a deep breath, he has always been a very emotional kid and that was the reason why he didn't mind that Rachel saw him that way, anyway it wasn't the first time that Rachel had seen it the blond that way.
When Rachel came back to the room she brought a big box and a tray with two cups of tees, when Sam saw the brunette he went to help her, when he reached her, he took the tray and Rachel put a big smile on her face as a way of gratitude.
Rachel left the box on the bed and she sit down crossing her legs, Sam left one of the cups on the table that was next to Rachel and then he sat on the bed too.
Rachel opened the box and she took a picture out of it, she looked at her a couple of minutes and then she gave it to her, when Sam saw the picture he laugh, it was a picture from the day that the girls join the football team.
-That was a good day- said Sam while he was staring at the picture.
-Yes it was, I remember Puck cheering me up and teaching me different ways of how to bother the other team
Sam laugh and then he took out of the box another picture, it was from the same day but when they were dressed up like zombies.
Then they saw pictures of their trip to NY and of the christmas which they gave food to the homeless people.
-Rachel i'm afraid to tell you that some of the greatest pictures that we've have together aren't in your box- Said Sam smiling at the brunette and at the same time he was trying to look disappointed.
Rachel smiled, she stared at Sam's eyes and said: -that is because the best ones are with me in New York.
-In that case I can live quietly knowing that you have in NY a picture of Mercedes, you and I from Prom, no?- Sam was staring serious and intensively at the brunette as he said that words.
Rachel looked back at Sam in the same way as he did -indeed.
After that intense moment Sam started to feel guilty again and he started to think about Finn again and he started to talk again about him.
-Did someone told you the story of how Finn got us back together after loosing sectionals- Sam got nervous and when he finished talking he smiled at Rachel from ear to ear.
Rachel was surprised by the sudden change in Sam's behavior and before she could answer Sam was talking again.
Rachel felt a little bit rejected when she saw that the blond had drastically changed his attitude after having a moment of sexual tension, but when he began to talk about Finn she realized that she was still his friend's girl and as such he would't want any misunderstanding between the two of them, so she played along and began to hear stories of how Finn had helped everyone and had become a much more mature and kind man after graduating but without losing the small details that made him so unique and the person that everyone loved and would miss.
There was a moment in which Rachel had laid on the bed and after a couple of minutes she had fallen asleep. Sam looked the clock and it was almost 6 in the morning, he looked Rachel as she sleep, he came closer to her and very carefully he put her under the sheets, Then he walked through the door and before he left the room he stopped and stared at the brunette for awhile.
Sam went downstairs and lie on the couch, he closed his eyes and all he could seen was Rachel curled up and relaxed on her bed.
-Common Sam- he said to himself -stop thinking about her, she's your friend's girl and besides she had never been your type of girl, but she looks so pretty and changed, she's not the same Rachel Berry that went to school with you, she's the Rachel Berry that is going to become a Broadway star.
