Chapter 11

Morning After

Mercedes smiled feeling soft feather like kisses along her stomach and the delicate caress of fingers brushing against her thighs. She could feel the cool soft fur underneath her lightly tickling her back as she stirred awake, she fluttered her eyes open and was immediately met by Sam's intense green ones. His hair was tousled and he had slight stubble showing and when he brushed his cheek along the apex of her breast she couldn't help but let out a soft groan.

"Morning beautiful." He said his voice was husky but also so damn sexy to her.

"Morning?" She asked blinking her eyes, moaning when used his tongue to lightly flicked one of her erect nipples.

"Mhm, it's technically morning." He teased slipping a hand between her legs earning a slight hiss from her before it turned into a moan. Sam smiled down at her loving how eager she was and how responsive her body was as well but he knew how to pace his self and she needed some pacing. He removed his hand placing a tender kiss on her lips before sitting up pulling her up as well before leading her to his bathroom.

Sam started the shower for them which was massive, it took up half of the bathroom which was saying a lot because there was a full Jacuzzi bath tub, his and her sinks and a vanity that was noticeably bare. The shower had marble tiling with frame less glass, a large bench and a large rain shower head that had a detachable option which she noticed Sam eyeing it with a devious grin.

He nodded her in first with him close behind, so close in fact she felt his length pressing against her lower back and she couldn't help the slight shiver that flowed through her. They stepped under the water where he turned her around running his hands along her sides and smiling down at her.

"You're so beautiful." He said moving his hands up gently caressing the underside of her breast before wrapping his arms around her holding her close.

"Thank you, you definitely make me feel like that's true." She said smiling up at him bashfully because she'd never showered with a man before and she'd come to realize that Sam really enjoyed making her moan so she was slowly growing excited. However he surprised her by taking a step back and allowing the water to wash away her soreness as he grabbed some body wash putting some in his hand and began rubbing it on her body earning a soft whimper from her.

He gently massaged the body wash onto her skin paying extra attention to her breast, kneading them and plucking her nipples before turning her around and moving his hands down her back gently caressing her ass. He groaned when she pushed back against his hands with a soft moan, he moved his hands down her thighs and knew he was entering dangerous territory especially when she turned around looking down at him with a sweet smile.

"You're a little tease you know." He said running his hand up her legs leaning in slightly placing a soft kiss to mound earning a moan from her.

"But we won't be doing that until after you eat and get some real rest." He informed running his hands up her thighs and stomach before he was fully standing again looking down at her wet body wanting so badly to bury his self back into her.

"You know for someone who said I'm in control you certainly have no issue taking control." Mercedes said cutely and he couldn't help but chuckle.

"Mmm… knew you were feisty." He replied wrapping his arms around her kissing her letting out a deep groan when she softly bit his lip.

"You need to rest." He breathed before kissing her again trying hard to stay in control catching her hand as it began to move down his body.

"Make me tired and I will." She countered and Sam couldn't help the growl that escaped him before picking her up and easing into making them both moan.

"Shit." He breathed pressing her against the shower wall wasting no time thrusting into her this time not holding back and he could tell by the gasp she noticed. She told him make her tired and he fully intended on making sure she was indeed tired.

"This is very unlike Jones, she usually answers whenever I call." Anthony said looking at his phone confused while Sebastian just smirked shaking his head.

"You can just send one of the interns to get what you need." Sebastian said.

"Nah Jones knows that office inside and out, it's easier to just send her besides she likes doing her job." Anthony said sending her yet another text message, right as Sebastian received a message.

Why is he calling her?

He needs a file.

Tell him to send a damn intern, she's sleeping.

I suggested as much, he wants 'Jones'.

Sebastian waited for another reply but never got one instead his assistant let him know that Sam was on the line so he put him on speaker.

"Evans! How are you?" Sebastian asked trying to not to show his amusement.

"Good just checking in how are the contracts going?" He asked not really giving a damn about that he needed Anthony to stop blowing up Mercedes' phone because they'd just laid down well… he laid her down.

"Great! Just trying to get a few files brought over but I can't for some reason get my lovely assistant-"

"Just send an intern, what other progress has been made?" Sam interrupted earning a chuckle from Sebastian and if he was there he would have there he would've seen the look that crossed Anthony's face.

"I said as much but he seems very stuck on sending Jonesy after said files." Sebastian said covering his mouth to hide his growing smirk.

"As stated I only trust her because she knows the office better than-"

"Please email me all the updates when you have them completed and if you can't get the files yourself I don't see why you would send Ms. Jones especially since you gave her the time off. I don't know how you run things at your business but I would be mindful of my actions regarding honoring an employees' time off." Sam said before hanging up leaving them both stunned.

"I can send Jessica, she's efficient and will get whatever you need." Sebastian informed and Anthony just nodded.

See that all phone calls come to me and not Mercedes.

So demanding, I'll see that he doesn't bother her.

"What's his deal?" Anthony asked after he finally gave in and sent one their interns feeling annoyed that Mercedes had ignored all his calls.

"Well you did give the poor girl the weekend off. He doesn't like people who can't keep their word." Sebastian answered.

"She's my assistant, she already knew I didn't really mean it when I told her she could have the whole weekend off." Anthony defended with a look that made Sebastian uncomfortable.

"Ms. Jones still deserves to be treated fairly and here at Evans and Smythe we pride ourselves on treating everyone no matter what level they are like equals. Everyone is entitled to a break and to have time for a personal life."

"Does Evans even come here, he's usually not this involved in projects like this is he?"

"Do you even know Sam that well?" Sebastian asked and for a moment Anthony had to stop what he was doing to think about it before he shook his head.

"No, not really."

"Well when you have time I'd definitely look into Samuel Evans." Sebastian informed before shooting Sam an email regarding the contracts and a few other things.

After getting off the phone with Sebastian and Anthony, Sam walked back into his bedroom smiling slightly when he saw that Mercedes was still sleeping. After their fun in the shower he took her again when they attempted to make some form of dinner/breakfast, she had been so cute in his button down helping him put something together that he couldn't resist.

He knew he would actually have to make sure she ate some real food so he put in an order for some breakfast to be delivered before getting into bed and laying down with her. He admittedly hadn't slept with when she fell asleep and when he tried to doze off her damn phone kept going off, he thought it was an emergency before seeing it was just her boss, he got angry and decided to make sure he didn't call her again.

When he got comfortable and started to doze off he felt her small arm wrap around his stomach and felt the subtle brush of her breath on his chest, he smirked knowing that the other women he'd been with never even tried to do that with him well one did and he regretted allowing her to get as far as she did with him. He quickly pushed that thought from his mind when Mercedes snuggled up closer to him, he wasn't sure what was going to happen but so far his assumptions of her were spot on.

Flashback

"SAM! Just talk to me, I swear I will do whatever you want." Marley shouted as she was escorted off his property for what seem like the hundredth time that week. Sam knew it was a bad idea getting involved with his personal assistant but he had and now he was stuck with dealing with the aftermath.

He didn't want things to end this way but she made it difficult for him to have female clients or any clients at that because she would show up at meetings or events and cause a scene. It had gotten to the point that his father even called him to ask about what was happening with his personal life. A man he hadn't talked to in over a decade called because of her, Marley Rose had made the impossible happen she made his father acknowledge that he had another son.

"I'm not leaving! I will stay out here all night until you tell me what I did wrong!" Marley shouted and he just sighed, he'd already contacted the authorities and hired a new assistant who was indeed married and had absolutely no interest in him.

"I can take care of her if you want." Kitty offered giving him a look that only slightly worried him.

"No just see that she doesn't reappear while I'm rebuilding all the bridges she managed to burn." Sam said before walking away to his office to figure out where to begin. Lucky for him he could make some deals to some of the clients that suddenly backed out of the deals they had with him but for the larger companies he was going to need to bend a lot.

Everything was going fine after a few weeks, that is until Marley did the unthinkable and released a formal statement about Sam's plans to take over several business he was still working with and when that happened his father came from Tennessee to have a 'meeting' with him.

…

"Dwight."

"Samuel." His father said looking very much annoyed by having to be there.

"Look-"

"Don't you tell me to do a damn thing, you've been a board member to my company since you were born and I would think your teenage years would be the time you embarrassed me but you choose now when you're thirty to do just that and then some."

"I didn't know she was going to do any of that and I-"

"What's the first rule?" His father asked slamming his hand down on the table making Sam let out a deep breath.

"Always have a contingency plan."

"And do you?" Dwight asked knowing the answer to that question.

"I didn't know I needed one for my personal life."

"Your net worth requires you have at least three contingency plans and you fucked up with the first woman you dated since college!"

"Didn't realize you knew that much about me being that you shipped me here the second I graduated thinking I wouldn't be able to make something of myself."

"The success you have is because of my last name, any woman you come in contact with will know this and now that I've said you you'll always think if she's with you for you or for my name. You have forty-eight hours to fix this mess or I'll have your brother replace you on the board."

"Yes sir." Sam said without an ounce of emotion. Dwight Evans tended to do that to him, he stopped treating him like a son when he was old enough to work at his company. He was Samuel Evans, board member and business associate.

"If I have to come back you won't like it." Dwight said before walking out of Sam's office and out of his life yet again.

End Flashback

There was a dinging sound that woke Mercedes up, she opened her eyes feeling surrounded by warmth before realizing she was wrapped up in Sam's arms who was sleeping soundly next to her. She blushed when she thought about why she had slept as hard as she had before the dinging sound came again, she slowly wiggled out of his embrace getting out of bed to stop the noise because she didn't want to wake him.

The sound was faint so she had to follow it until she realized it was coming from the doorbell and she nervously debated opening it because it wasn't her home. She hesitated before the thought of it being important crossed her mind and she opened it slightly only to see the smiling faces of Karl, Joe and Artie.

"Oh, hi." She said smiling back at them. "Sam's sleeping and I didn't want to wake him but I can go-"

"It's fine we just have some breakfast for the both of you." Karl said holding up a basket.

"Well that was awfully kind of you." She replied taking the basket feeling herself blush when she looked a Joe who was seemed very much engrossed in her for some reason before she realized she was only wearing a shirt.

"Please enjoy and we hope to see you again sometime." Karl said before they all walked away as she close the door. As soon as she turned around she ran straight into Sam's firm chest and before she could fall back he wrapped his arms around her steadying her.

"I see Karl came by." He said looking down her with a smirk.

"Mhm… sorry I didn't want the sound to wake you and I wasn't sure if it was important… so I answered the door." She replied and he couldn't help but find her rambling adorable.

"And if it had been important?" He asked teasingly noticing her shift slightly because the realization that it could have been important and she was literally wearing next to nothing which would have probably embarrassed him.

"I… I need to go change." She said with nervous smile and Sam just shook his head before kissing her gently.

"The only changing you'll be doing is me taking that shirt off of you but we need to eat, I'm starving and I know you have to be too." He said taking the basket from her and leading them into the kitchen where she immediately blushed at the unfinished food and his boxers.

Karl jam packed the basket with pancakes, crepes, homemade syrup, a wide variety of fruits and pre-made mimosas. There were also some bagels, cream cheeses and yogurts. Sam immediately got a few ideas on how much fun it would be to taste the syrup off of her body making other parts of his body grow excited which only grew she gently brush against his arm when she reached for a bagel.

"So we won't be leaving for several hours… is there anything you'd like to do while we're still here?" Sam asked trying to calm his self because she needed to eat but damn it if he wanted to eat too.

"Umm is it cheesy that I want to do all the touristy things?" She asked spreading some cream cheese on on bagel as he poured her some mimosa with a light chuckle.

"You want to see the Statue of Liberty?"

"Mhm and Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and maybe Times Square if we have time." She replied. Sam just watched her take a bite out of her bagel trying to figure out a way to work all that in without giving in the growing urge to keep her holed up in he bedroom.

"We can do anything you want." He said finally and she couldn't help but hear the subtle offer of more than sight seeing making her blush then clear her throat.

"I… ahh don't think I have anything to wear so I'll need to stop somewhere to-" She started before he shook his head.

"Unique sent over some pieces for you they're over there and what you don't choose you can leave here for your next visit." He said sliding the last half in before taking a bite out of a pancake noticing the semi-shocked look cross her face before a small smile graced her lips making him groan.

"Oh shoot! I haven't called my friend to let him know that you didn't kill me!" She said jumping up from her seat right before he caught her turning her around in his arms with an amused look.

"You thought I was going to kill you?" He asked in a teasingly voice before chuckling when embarrassment flashed over her face.

"Not kill me… more so lock me up in sex dungeon." She answered innocently which made him laugh even harder.

"What is with you and sex dungeons?" He asked before kissing her deeply earning a deep moan from her, she quickly wiggled out of his embrace blushing and letting out a heavy breath.

"Umm I think I'm going to make that phone call and then I'll pick out something to wear." She said feeling hot all over.

"Or…" Sam started closing the gap between them before kissing her walking her backward without even touching her. He kept walking back until her back hit the wall and he couldn't help but smirk when she gasped before he kissed her again grabbing her hands and placing them above her head. Sam groaned when he pressed his self into her soft body feeling her arch up into before releasing her hands and taking step back noticing the flushed look on her face.

"Get dressed before I keep you here until it's time to leave." He said running his hand through his hair and she smiled sweetly before walking over to the selection of clothes and picking something simple which was saying a lot because those outfits were anything but simple. She shot him another smile as she passed him heading to his bedroom to make her call and to get dressed.

"Can I ask you something?" Mercedes asked as they walked around the south end of Central Park.

"Sure."

"Your place in Savannah is different from your home here…"

"Mhm." He said looking at her wondering where this question was heading. They'd done pretty much all of the touristy things that she wanted and even though he'd seen just about everything New York City had to offer it was fun watching her light up every time they knocked something off of her list.

"Well… I noticed that your bedroom was more umm lived in, if that makes sense." She said and he just nodded waiting for her to get to her question.

"I was just wondering if you preferred it here over Savannah?" She asked finally and he waited a moment contemplating on how he would answer it.

"Honestly, I used to love it here but a piece of that excitement was taken away from me." He answered and he could tell she was trying to figure out what he actually meant by that.

"Someone?" She asked and he couldn't help but smirk.

"Tell me about Lima." He said choosing to leave that conversation for another day.

"Well, there's not much to tell… its tiny and people who stay there are stuck forever."

"And you don't want the small town life?"

"Yes and no, I also wanted to live close enough to a big city but far enough away to have peace. So when I got the job in Savannah, I didn't hesitate and so far it was a good decision… I hope." She answered sitting on one of the many benches and he sat right next to her before grabbing her legs and draping them over his, she was wearing heels and they'd been walking all day so he figured her feet were hurting.

"Do they hurt?" He asked taking one of her heels off gently rubbing her foot.

"I'm actually used to wearing heels all day." She answered with a small smile and she couldn't help blushing when he just shrugged before taking off the other heel placing them beside him turning his attention back to her.

"What made you say yes?" He asked not really needing to know but still curious.

"Well I've been safe my whole life. My parents and brother have always kept me in a little bubble… I think that's why I'm shy around most people until I get comfortable enough to be myself. This was something new and exciting but also…" She started before stopping and looking away at nothing. Sam turned her so that she was facing him waiting for her to finish but she only offered a shy smile.

"Also what baby?" He asked.

"But I don't know… I don't want to say what I'm thinking because I don't want you to think I'm using you. Which I'm not I swear, I just wanted see what kind of adventure this would be." She replied honestly hoping like hell he wouldn't take offense to it and for a moment he didn't say a thing he just looked at her with an unreadable expression that made her unsure of what he was going to say.

"That makes two of us." He said finally before his phone went off and he winced slightly when he saw who it was.

"Excuse me." She watched him get up and move a few feet away wondering what could make him react that way.

"Dwight."

"Entertaining another woman I see, this one is cute definitely against the grain."

"Having me followed?"

"Having my investment carefully looked after yes."

"That's not necessary." Sam said looking back at Mercedes shooting her a half smile.

"Funny how you assume you get to pick and choose what I deem necessary, who is she?"

"That is none of your concern."

"Fine, don't tell me but after I look into her you better hope I don't find anything."

"Look, leave her out of this she isn't a threat to yo-" Sam started before he heard the line go dead. He had to take a few deep breaths to calm his self before walking back over to Mercedes.

"Hey I hate to cut this short be we need to be getting to the airstrip." He said kneeling and putting her shoes back on for her.

"Umm okay.' She said shooting him a concerned look to which he just smiled and pulled her into a sweet kiss.

The flight back was quiet and Sam seemed very distant, she wanted to ask if something was bothering him but wasn't sure she should. So she decided to finally look through her text messages that she'd avoided after calling Kurt, who screamed bloody murder when he'd finally answered claiming to be 'three seconds away from calling missing persons'. She skimmed through her messages, some from her parents and brother, some were from Tina and Kurt but a large majority was from Anthony asking her for some damn file. Sam noticed Mercedes' furrowed eyebrows wondering what cause her to make the current face she was making, he could see she was on her phone and assumed it was Anthony.

"Everything okay?" He asked and she looked up before nodding with a small smile.

"Just… work."

"Does he often interrupt your time off?"

"Define time off?" She joked with a humorless laugh.

"Mhm, what are you doing Wednesday at 2:30?" He asked looking at the calendar on his watched and she couldn't help but find that time very specific.

"I don't usually plan that far ahead and it's a work day, umm…" She started before trailing off when he moved into her personal space pulling her into a deep kiss, he gently cupped her face holding her there before biting down on her bottom lip earning a strangled moan from her.

"I have to go out of town and will be back late Tuesday night. I'll be free on Wednesday at 2:30 so I want to take you out for a late lunch." He said with sexy smile and she just nodded.

"Okay." Mercedes said realizing this weekend was really over and now she had to go back to reality but she wasn't even sure what that meant.

Hell she wasn't sure what she and Sam were… were they a thing? Were they just two consenting adult that went from being total strangers to them knowing each other on a sexual semi-deeper level? She had so many questions that she should have asked but when she really thought about it she avoided those topics out of fear of seeming too eager. She couldn't shake the feeling that no matter what happened after they left the plane her seemingly quiet life was about to go on a ride of it's life.

Soooooo... Sam's not at all who you might think he is and Mercedes kind of hinted at why you're noticing a subtle change in her.

1. Dwight? How we feeling about him?

2. Marley... we can all agree she needs to seek help?

3. ANTHONY IS THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE!
