A prompt from the lovely Suninthenightsky (oh my god is your username about Midnight Sun?)- Samcedes and Klaine double date!
Title from AVPM :)
Where Our Story Begins
"Oh my god," giggled Mercedes, her hand clenching Sam's tightly. "I can't believe we're all here again!"
After all, no double date could be complete without an overpriced meal at Breadstix, they agreed.
Kurt and Blaine smiled warmly at her, commenting about dinner choices and teasing over choosing the farthest place from them in the country to live in.
"So," Kurt rested his chin on his hand. "Do tell, how's LA?"
"It's so beautiful, Kurt! You guys gotta come visit sometime."
Sam kept his eyes on Mercedes when he answered. "Yeah, it really is. The beaches are really lovely, much better than the New York ones- less crowded, too."
They chit-chatted about nonsense for the rest of the evening, but when the inevitable subject of Plans for the Future came up, Sam and Mercedes began sharing too many hesitating gazes.
"Okay," said Blaine, and after a nudge from Kurt he crossed his arms over his chest as well. "You need to tell us what's wrong."
Kurt nodded.
Another, more frightened look shared between the two and they both started talking in the same time.
"We-"
"That's-"
They stopped talking altogether. Mercedes nodded for Sam to explain.
"Well, we weren't planning to actually tell anyone yet, but…"
"We're getting married!" called Mercedes, her smile shining so brightly it must've been seen from outer space.
"Congratulations, you guys!" beamed Kurt, the first to recover.
Blaine took another second until he replied with an impressed, awe-filled "I'm so happy for you! Did you decide when?"
When they sank back into an excited conversation over tiny niceties, Blaine's mind was elsewhere. Kurt noticed, but didn't comment.
Blaine's 'elsewhere' was in the hidden pocket of his suitcase, in the little square box resting there. He remembered the ring in it to the finest detail, and when Kurt talked eagerly about the pluses of an outdoor wedding, Blaine thought of soon.
Soon, it'll be our outdoor wedding.
Thanks for the lovely reviews, darlings! I'm glad you liked yesterday's drabble, it was a lot of fun to write :D I've also noticed there are more people around here lately, and if you're new (and if you're not) I just wanted to say hi to y'all!
