A/N: I wanted some happy moments before all hell breaks loose. (: TJ is just the cutest boy I'm just having a blast writing him and y'all favorite character y'all know y'all love him Tank will return in the next post or the post after that. Small update.
Mercedes's POV
TJ wanted S'mores and Sam didn't have any of the ingredients to make them but Sam went out and got everything he needed for S'mores.
"I'm back." He announced walking into the back yard. "Stevie set this up. Where's TJ?" He asked looking at me.
"Catching lighting bugs with Quinn and Brittany."
"Okay." They set up everything rather quickly Sam lit the fire and called for TJ. "TJ, come here son." TJ ran right over.
"Yes, you do the honors of the first toasted marshmallow." Sam held the stick for him as he put it his marshmallow on there and Sam had chairs around in a circle and TJ sat in one but couldn't reach the fire so Sam sat TJ on his lap TJ laid back on Sam and was holding the stick and TJ hands were on top of his. I stood back and watched this because this was cute everyone else sat and began toasting theirs.
"Where's Mercedes?"
"She's right behind you." Rachel answered quickly blowing her marshmallow.
He patted the seat next to him "Come on sit." I sat and right when I sat down he pulled back the stick with and he, TJ and I all blew on the marshmallow.
"Aww… don't y'all look like at little family." Stacey said.
"We do?"
"Yeah, y'all do. Mercedes the mommy of course, Sam, because he warned me about his nickname is the daddy and TJ is the baby."
"I'm not the baby I'm five but they can have one."
"You are the baby you my baby, TJ." Kissed him on the cheek. TJ had 2 S'mores he wanted a 3rd one but not today but I made me one and I shared it with him and Sam. I looked at all my friends who were just laughing and smiling and it had that family feel and it made me miss my family. My parents were upset when I got with Tank and that put a strain on our relationship I was surprised my mom sent TJ something when I told her that I was pregnant with him and to this day she doesn't know how he came to be.
Sam's POV
I looked down at TJ and he was nursing a water then over at Mercedes who was talking to Kurt all I could think was how good this moment felt and we're just one big happy crazy family.
"Sam, what are you smiling about?"
"Nothing."
"Okay, Kurt asked what are we doing tomorrow?"
"Nothing, why y'all got something planned?"
"I was thinking that we all should go to the beach."
"That's cool all for the beach raise, your hands." All hands went up except one.
"Oh, someone is sleepy."
"I'm not sleepy." TJ mumbled.
"He's sleepy. I got him Sam."
"No, I got him. I know how to put little kids to bed remember those two." I pointed over to Stevie and Stacey. "Unless you want to join me as I put him to bed."
"I'll join you." I was carrying a sleeping TJ and holding Mercedes hand when I addressed everyone. "Hey, Mercedes and I are going to put TJ to bed, we'll be back."
"Okay." They said as we headed toward the house and Blaine said it loud for us to hear.
"Why are they so damn perfect? Two days they're the cutest little Samcedes family." I laughed and once we got to the back door I opened it Mercedes went in first and I followed up the stairs we went to TJ's room I laid him on the bed and started removing his clothes while Mercedes got his PJ's. "Are we going to wipe him off? I asked not knowing she was standing right there with his rag she handed it and I did it wiped him off. I put on his shirt and she did his bottoms.
"Socks off or on?"
"Off." I pulled his socks off and tossed them in the hamper.
"Let's go back outside."
"Before we do let's talk."
"Okay, what you want to talk about?"
"What happened at dinner?"
"Oh, giving TJ too much drink?"
"No, that's okay." She fiddled with her hands biting her lip. "Sam, he called you daddy."
"I know…and."
"He called you daddy. Sam, we only was here for what 2 days."
"Okay. Your point."
"That don't bother you that 2 days and to him you're daddy."
"Actually Mercedes it does not I mean after all he's been through with him. I'm just glad I finally have a title, you said nickname earlier today and I knew what you meant no longer am I Mr. Sam or Sam to TJ, I'm daddy what it should have been because that boy" I said pointing to TJ who was lightly snoring. "He's supposed to be my son the creation of Samuel Thaddeus Evans and Mercedes Renee Jones now I didn't plant the seed but I'm going to mold him in my image and from here on out he's my son. No ifs ands or buts about it. You better get used to it mommy." I kissed her on the lips. "Because daddy's home. Let's go back outside before they think we're doing the nasty." She laughed into my chest as we left the room.
"Sam you left the light on."
"I got it. You go on out I'll be there soon." I ran back upstairs was about to enter the room when I heard TJ talking. I gingerly walked to his door and listened.
"I didn't say my prayers." He got out bed and got on my knees. "God in heaven hear my prayer keep me in thy loving care. Be my guide in all I do, bless all those who love me too. God Bless Aunt Brittany, Aunt Quinn, Aunt Rachel, Aunt Santana, Aunt Stacey, Uncle Kurt, Uncle Blaine, Uncle Artie, Uncle Puck, Uncle Stevie, Mommy and Daddy and by daddy I mean Sam. Amen."
He jumped back in bed and waited until he was snoring again and hit the light and joined all of the adults outside.
"Amen."
