Whew... it's some shit!

The Agreement: Part Five

Sam stood in front of the mirror, buttoning his black silk shirt, tonight was the corporate dinner and it would be the first step to convincing them he and Mercedes were together for real and not just for this event. He brushed his hair back and turned when the bathroom door opened. "You bout re-wow…Merce you look…you look stunning."

Mercedes smiled. "You think? It's not too much right?" She asked, adjusting her dress slightly.

He shook his head. "No…its perfect." His eye moved to the ring on her finger and he swallowed the lump that was forming in his throat. He had to get it together.

She smiled, looking him over. He looked damn good in his all black, she had chosen a black silk cowl dress to match his silk shirt. It was weird, them matching but it still caused butterflies to flutter when he told her she looked great. "You don't look bad yourself… so this dinner is where we gotta be the most charming right?"

Sam nodded, grabbing her clutch for her. "Yes, gotta show them how loving we really are. Think you can handle it?" He said, stepping next to her.

Mercedes shifted slightly, smiling. "I got this in the bag, Evans. You just wait, they're gonna be eating out of the palm of my hands by the time this is over and you're gonna be promoted in no time!"

Sam stepped closer to her. "Well then it's showtime." He kissed her softly. "Let's go." Leading them out the room, Sam walked them to the car so he could drive them to the resort dining hall. After he parked he opened his door and held out his arm to her. "Shall we?"

She took his hand, nodding. "Let's wow them." She said, allowing him to help her out of the truck and lead them inside. "You're gonna have to introduce me to everyone."

Sam looked at her, wondering why it felt so right having her on his arm like this, he had never looked at Mercedes as anything more than his bestie and yet now, he is seeing her as something different, something more." As they walked in he sighed. "Lord okay, Will is coming, remember I told you he is a lot."

"Evans, glad you could make it." Will said, pulling his wife close as he leered at Mercedes. "This must be your ravishing fiancee."

Mercedes looked at Sam before smiling at Will. "Hi, I'm Mercedes." She said holding her hand out for him to shake.

Will removed his arm from around his wife and took Mercedes hand in his. "Pleasures all mines. Evans you didn't do her justice, she is breathtaking."

Sam narrowed his eyes at Will before removing his hand from Mercedes'. "Hello Emma, how are you? Baby, this is Emma. Will's wife." He said, introducing her to Emma.

Mercedes picked up on Sam's tone and couldn't help blushing at how territorial he was being. "It's lovely to meet you Emma, I must say your gown is beautiful." She said, rubbing her hand on his back to calm him down.

"Your dress is gorgeous." Emma said, smiling softly.

"Yo Evans, how much did you pay this Goddess to be your date?" Anthony said walking over to him and patting his back.

Sam rolled his eyes before smiling fakely at his co-worker. "Anthony, this is my fiancee, Mercedes. Baby, this is Anthony, he's head of marketing."

"Fiancee? Seriously?" Anthony looked at Sam then moved over to Mercedes kissing her hand. "Him, seriously? I mean just saying you are a Queen."

Mercedes snickered, before removing her hand from his grip. "Well aren't you forward? But I have to agree, I am a queen and he treats me as such." She replied, looking up at Sam lovingly. "He's simply the best…"

Sam exhaled, pulling everyone close. "Okay I don't want to keep having this conversation. Everyone! This is Mercedes, she's my fiancee, no I didn't pay her and yes she loves me." He said loudly.

"Well it's about damn time someone locked your gorgeous self down." Came a voice and Mercedes smiled seeing a fierce woman looking at her. "I'm Unique honey it's a pleasure to meet you."

Sam smiled, unwrapping his arm from around Mercedes to give Unique a hug. "This is single handedly the best person you'll meet tonight." He said to Mercedes and she nodded.

"Well that's quite an introduction… I'm Mercedes and I must say those shoes need to be in my closet."

"Tell me your size and I can get you a pair as soon as we get back to the city!"

Sam smiled, shaking his head. "Careful, she has a shoe fetish."|

"As is my right too!" Mercedes defended. She looked at Unique. "He's just mad because he has to build me a walk-in closet just for my shoes."

Unique smiled. "Honey, make him dedicate a whole room for your closet and have him throw a bathroom in there too."

Sam shook his head with a smile. "Unique, don't go giving her more ideas!"

Mercedes placed her hand over his mouth. "Ignore him, tell me more about this closet room and how do I make it amazing?" She said jokingly.

Unique linked arms with Mercedes. "I am stealing her and we are going to talk to Jake's wife Marls. I have so much to teach them." She said taking Mercedes with her.

Anthony turned towards Sam. "Okay Evans spill it. There is no way you had that Ebony Goddess on your arm and we are just now finding out about her!"

Sam chuckled. "Maybe I wanted it that way, I know how sexy my girl is and I don't want to share her. You're lucky I'm letting you look at her now."

"Please you are lucky I respect you and the sanctity of marriage or I would be trying to pull her from you, I mean dayamn! You don't find women like that anymore. How did you meet her?"

Sam looked over to where Unique had taken Mercedes and smiled. "We met when we were younger, and have known her practically my whole life." He replied looking back at Anthony. "We just really got serious a few years ago…"

Anthony nodded looking back over to Mercedes. "Some guys have all the luck I tell ya."

Sam laughed as Shane approached him. "Hey Shane I didn't know you were gonna be up here this weekend."

"Hey, I know it was a last minute decision. Who's the girl with Unique?" Shane asked, looking in their direction.

"That is Mercedes." Anthony said looking at Sam, he could have said more but he liked a bit of drama and Shane and Sam definitely had history. "She's fine ain't she?"

"Fine doesn't even begin to describe her, when did she join the company and why haven't I seen her? Damn that slit in her dress is making me wish I'd come alone."

Sam started to say something but Anthony moved him aside. "It's not like you're married, you should put the Tinsley charm on her… I would but I brought Jane." He said, egging him on.

Sam shook his head. "Yeah, go for it man, a woman like that won't stay single long." Sam said through slightly gritted teeth, he knew Shane was not Mercedes type even if they weren't dating but he still didn't like the way Shane was leering at his girl.

Shane nodded. "Bet, and if Dana asks, I'm training a new employee. I'm sure she doesn't need much but I think I can teach her a few things." He said arrogantly before walking over to her.

Sam looked at Anthony. "After she turns him down I am gonna punch him dead in his jaw. And you aren't funny either trying to set them up. "

"Hey I gotta get my kicks somehow, now let's watch the show." He said all too happy to see what would happen.

Mercedes laughed, shaking her head. "Oh my God yes! I promise I felt like Will was undressing me with his eyes, and right in front of his wife! He is a damn pervert!"

"Excuse me, I'm Shane. I don't think I've seen you before but I would love to welcome you to our company." Shane said not caring he was interrupting their conversation. He held out his hand for Mercedes, smiling as he looked her over again. "You are very beautiful."

Mercedes sighed looking at the man. "Okay one, we were in the middle of a conversation, and I really do appreciate you introducing yourself all like that, but I am not here with the company I am actually here with someone."

Shane smirked. "Well whoever you are here with is a fool for letting you out of their sight. I apologize for interrupting but can you blame me? You are stunning and obviously have stolen the attention of every man here just by your presence." He replied, taking her hand and kissing it.

Mercedes removed her hand from his grasp. "I am here with my fiancee and even if I wasn't I am not interested. You are cute and all but just no. Thanks though." She turned back to the other woman.

Sam walked over to them and smiled. "Excuse me ladies, hate to interrupt, but I saw you from across the room and I knew I would regret it all night if I didn't come over here and tell you just how stunning you look in that dress."

Mercedes smiled, walking over to him and wrapping her arms around his neck. "And now that you have my attention how do you plan on using it?"

Shane looked at them disgustingly. "She has a fiance dude… no dice."

Sam smiled. "Well he is one lucky man, I am sure he won't mind if you and I get to know each other better. "I am Sam Evans, the man you've been waiting for your whole life."

She giggled. "Well, I'm sure if we kept it between us it would be just fine… I have a little time now but he has this dinner so… we'd have to be quick."

Shane shook his head. "You're giving Evans some play but not me? You do know he's a man whore right?"

"Oh is he? That's hot." She teased.

Sam wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close. "I can show you a few things, if you're interested. I'm sure you taste better than anything they're serving here."

Mercedes giggled, taking his hand in hers. "I know you can talk a big game, but are you sure you can handle curves like these?" She said placing his hand on her hips. "Not everyone is suited for this kind of ride."

Shane shook his head. "So she's easy…" He muttered.

"If I were easy…" Mercedes said, looking over to him. "Then you would have a chance. Maybe, he's just better than you."

Sam smiled. "I'm going to show you just how much better, say goodbye Mercedes." He said, grabbing her hand, leading them away from everyone.

"Bye…" Mercedes said and laughed. "That was fun, let me guess, he's your rival for the promotion?"

"No, he's just an asshole who thinks he's God's gift to women and he's in a relationship… classless." Sam replied, walking them out of the dining hall and to his truck. He opened the door for her to get in shooting her a sly smirk. "I want those panties off before I get in." He added closing the door and walking over to the driver's side.

She could have refused him, should have but she couldn't. She shot him a sly look. "What makes you think I am wearing any?"

Sam looked at her before leaning over and slipping his hand underneath her dress. "Feels like lace to me." He quipped, grabbing her underwear. "If you don't want them ripped, now's your chance to say so."

A whimper left her lips at his words. "Rip em." She said breathlessly.

Sam didn't wait for her to change her mind and ripped her panties off of her, he brought the ripped fabric up to his nose and inhaled. "I'm going to enjoy devouring you." He groaned.

"Less talking and more eating baby, we don't have that long." She whined.

Sam sat her seat back as he leaned over to take her lips in his as he ripped the panties off of her flesh, growling against her. "Do you know how hot it is, knowing all those men in there wish they could be where I am right now. They wished they could have you and you are mine." Sam whispered in her ear before he kissed her pulse point.

"Sam!" She screamed out as he thrust a finger inside of her.

"Mmm look at how wet you are, is that all because of me?"

Mercedes nodded. "Yes… you should taste it."

Sam smiled. "Oh I plan on it, but I never take things that aren't mine." His gaze fell upon hers. "Tell me you're mine." He stared at her, almost pleading with her though he didn't know why he needed to hear it.

She hissed as he lazily stroked her. "I'm yours." She said staring back, feeling that familiar stirring she tried to keep at bay.

"Damn right." He said attacking her lips in a fierce kiss, sucking on her tongue as he added a finger, wanting to please her in a desperate way now that she admitted to being his. Moving to her thighs he spread her legs, lifting one to the dashboard as his tongue moved from slit to clit.

"Mine." He groaned as his tongue replaced her fingers, thrusting in and out possesively wanting to push her over that edge in record time. She screamed out grabbing his hair as his finger went to her clit while he tongue fucked her hard.

Mercedes arched into him, gripping the headrest as he sent her senses into over driver and pushed her over that edge, his name on her tongue as he lapped up her essence tugging at his pants.

He moved from her pulling his slacks down as he moved his own seat back and she climbed into his lap.

Mercedes slid her pussy up and down his shaft and Sam hissed.

"I need to be inside of you. Now!"

She smirked looking at him as she ran one hand through his hair, and gripped his cock with the other. "Tell me it's mine and I will."

Sam smiled leaning up to her. "It's always been yours." He said kissing her as she slowly slid down on his shaft, whimpering against his lips.

He thrust up to meet her movements, lips devouring hers as they pushed each other towards their releases. "So close." Sam groaned as he held her hips in place thrusting faster and harder causing her to cum, the moment she squeezed him, he came moaning her name, both riding it out.

Mercedes pulled away gently as Sam's hand caressed her cheek lovingly. "You are so beautiful, Mercedes." He whispered, leaning in and kissing her softly.

That same stirring came full force and she couldn't stop herself this time, didn't want to. "I love you Sam." She said feeling him freeze up immediately.

She looked at him wondering if she read this whole thing wrong. He opened his mouth to speak but closed it as someone knocked on the window.

"Dinner is starting y'all need to wrap it up." Unique said before shaking her head and walking away.

Sam looked at Mercedes, wondering if he heard her correctly before she slowly moved from his lap. "I… I guess we need to go finish wowing your co-workers." She said softly, as she adjusted and looked for some type of wet wipe.

Sam looked at her, wanting to address what just happened but he knew she was right, they were here for a reason. "Uh yeah, let's go."

She nodded, cleaning herself off and fixing her hair. "Okay." She replied before getting out of the truck and walking a few paces away. She needed to take a breath before going back inside and pretending to be something she clearly wasn't but recently found herself wanting to be.

After dinner, Mercedes and Unique exchanged numbers and promised to see each other at the games tomorrow. The ride back was a lot different than the ride over, the air around them was thick with a tension that wasn't sexual. They were both in their own thoughts to even realize that they were moving almost on autopilot, Sam helped her slip out of her dress while she helped him with his cuff links. She went into the bathroom first, turning on the shower while Sam went through their bags and grabbed pajamas for the pair of them to wear before joining her.

Neither spoke and neither felt the need or want to have the conversation they both knew needed to happen. Mercedes said she loved him after they'd had sex so there was no mistaking it wasn't because of that. She'd said it after and Sam froze.

"Did… do you prefer a side?" She asked after they'd gotten their pajamas on.

Sam shook his head. "Either side is fine…" He said looking at her, watching as she just nodded before getting into bed.

"Good night Sam." She replied softly and he sighed knowing he needed to say something to make this situation better but he didn't he just laid down and prayed tomorrow would be better.

welllll... idk lol
