Mercedes' Pov
All I could do was think why me? I looked over at Shane my boyfriend of a good six months now and I have to honestly say he was getting really tiring and plain to me. I mean he was a sweetheart but plain and boring like a broken record, everyday the same thing, '"Cedes babe why dont we take the next step?"' "'Cedes maybe if you slimmed down just a tad bit you wouldnt feel so self conscious,"' "' Oh I cant wait to meet the college scouts again. I know Im guaranteed a spot already but I want to meet other colleges too,"' Ugh he was getting on my last nerve and to think I lost all this weight just to please him what was I thinking? If I was still with, no I cant think like that I wont think like that. But I miss those eyes that smile that trouty mouth. That put a smile on my face then.
"Hey Im going to head to the choir room," I tell him as I get up and grab my purse and the lunch tray that was as empty as I felt.
"Ok babe Love you," he says with a smile.
"Yeah me too," I say as I walk toward the exit and drop my tray off in the bin by the trash.
My feelings were overflowing for the millionth time since this past summer.
Whats up?
I know we haven't spoken for a while
But I was thinkin bout you
And it kinda made me smile
So many things to say
And I'll put em in a letter
Thought it might be easier
The words might come out better
How's your mother, how's your little brother?
Does he still look just like you?
So many things I wanna know the answers to
Wish I could press rewind
And rewrite every line
To the story of me and you
I made it to my locker to grab my music notebook for glee club dropping off my purse. I felt like I couldn't move.
Don't you know I've tried and I've tried
To get you out my mind
But it don't get no better
As each day goes by
And I'm lost and confused
I've got nothin to lose
Hope to hear from you soon
P.S. I'm still not over you
Still not over you
Excuse me, I really didn't mean to ramble on
But there's a lot of feelings that remain since you've been gone
I guess you thought that I would put it all behind me
But it seems there's always somethin right there to remind me
Like a silly joke, or somethin on the t.v.
Boy it aint easy
When I hear our song
I get that same old feeling
Wish I could press rewind
Turn back the hands of time
And I shouldn't be telling you
I headed to the choir room.
Don't you know I've tried and I've tried
To get you out my mind
But it don't get no better
As each day goes by
And I'm lost and confused
I've got nothin to lose
Hope to hear from you soon
P.S. I'm still not over you
Still not over you
Did you know I kept all of your pictures
Don't have the strength to part with them yet
Oh no...
Tried to erase the way your kisses taste
But some things a girl can never forget
Don't you know I've tried and I've tried
To get you out my mind
But it don't get no better
As each day goes by
And I'm lost and confused
I've got nothin to lose
Hope to hear from you soon
P.S. I'm still not over you
Still not over you
As I entered the choir room I see Mr Shue and Ms Corcoran standing and talking I was a little confused.
"Mr Shue?" I asked.
Santana flew to my side in a heartbeat. "You never guess what captain booty chin did," she whispered to me.
"What?" I ask looking over my shoulder.
"He wants us to rejoin new directions. I said no and that we'll wait on you oh royal one," she says with a roll of her eyes and a sly smirk.
"I dont know, let's hear him out I guess," I was too tired to really argue at this point didn't have the energy.
"Well as you guys know that I have a daughter," Ms Corcoran begun.
Brittany raises her hand.
"Yes Brittany?"
"The people from the stork factory messed up because it was Quinn's baby but you got it. I remember I was watching looney tunes one time and the stork was drunk and dropping off the wrong babies. I think your baby is still lost," she says with the most serious face. God bless her little clueless heart.
"Anywho, managing the troubletones and being a single mother is kind of hard and as much as I would love too I cant do both and so," she motioned for Mr Shue.
"That's where I come in and want to know if you ladies want to come back home? And Suga you're welcomed as well," he says with a hopeful smile.
"Cedes?" Santana Suga and Brittany said in unison.
"Ugh, if we have to go back we go back. Ms Corcoran has responsabilites guys," I say.
"Well if we have to but I want more solos," Santana says.
"I will make sure you all shine especially you Cedes you been with me from the beginning," he says while holding his arms out.
I smile and walk into his arms it felt like I was home again. It felt right.
Santana and the girls joined the hug. I look at Ms Corcoran she looked sad but gave me a wink. I smile at her.
Sam's Pov
Well here I was in the backseat of Rachel's ride and on my way back to Lima Ohio. Her and Finn were chatting. I tuned them out all I could think about was Mercy, my girl. She changed my life. One thing my folks didn't know was I was saving up to get my own car to come and go as I pleased but mainly to come and show Mercy I could make a long distance relationship work. She was so determined to have us just stay friends when I left last summer it was a reluctant move but my family was going threw a tough time when my dad lost his job. I had alot going on for me but also alot of responsablities as a teenager but my parents told me to go and live and enjoy being that, a teenager. It got darker outside and it started to rain.
"So what have I missed at ol' Mckinley high?" I ask.
"Well alot has went down since you been gone, we dont have to cover it all now," Rachel says and shot Finn a look. I guess I was'nt suppose to see the exchange but I did.
"What?" I ask.
"Well," Finn starts but looks back out the window.
"Oh come on I thought we were boys," I say. Then I look at the driver, Ms Big mouth herself. "Come on Rach you know you want to tell me," I press.
"Fine. Santana well she needs to work on herself and Quinn has kind of found herself. So those two are out of the question," Rachel said matter of factly.
"Oh that's cool how about everyone else?" I ask still curious.
"Well Artie is still well Artie. Tina and Mike are still the it asian couple. Brittney is still clueless. Oh well Kurt and Blaine are doing well and hear this Blaine is at Mckinley," Rachel says all excited.
"Really wow," I had to hide my boredom.
"And our diva Cedes has a new boyfriend he's a jock he's big and he's kinda scary looking to me, even though he is as sweet as a teddy," she says looking confused then stuck on awe.
"Wow," was all I could manage to get out.
"Then Puck is still well no he's doing very well actually," Rachel says. I sigh. "Oh Im sorry Sam here I am babbling on and on. So did you find you a girl?" she asks eyeing me in the rearview mirror.
"No not really," I say siting back and looking out the window and tune those two out.
So she moved on that's why she kept pressing the just friends issue and to find someone for me but she is well was the one for me.
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That dont bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let 'em out
Im not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend Im ok
But thats not what gets me
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin to do
Its hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But Im doin It
Its hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and Im alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken
What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
What hurts the most was being
so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
I'm saying that loving you
Thats what I was tryin' to do
Nobody's Pov
Mercedes was determined to get this week done and over with mondays was always the worst she thought as she headed to her locker.
"Coach Sue," she spoke.
"Aretha," Sue responded and that got a smile from Mercedes.
She opened her locker and seen a little piece of folded paper on top of her stuff it must of been from Shane. She opened it.
Dont you want me?
She was confused because the handwritting didn't look like his it looked like, but HE was a whole four hours or so away but the line made her drift down memory lane.
Rachel really went through with having this party and everybody was wasted. Blaine and Rachel was partying and singing a duet "Dont you want me" and killing it. Everyone enjoyed it. Artie decided he wanted to sing too and was determined to sing some Tevin to his boo Brittany. Mercedes had to pee as she woobled and stumbled her way to the bathroom upstairs she was thankful she didn't have to do the other flight of stairs because the Berry's had a bathroom off the side of the basement door.
As she opened it she bumped into Sam.
"Oh Im sorry I didn't know anyone was, Im sorry," she slurred a little and giggled.
"Oh it's cool Im done," Sam said as he gave her a quick look over.
"What's with the eye cowboy?" Mercedes seen this as funny and snickered somemore.
"Ha ha." He says and takes one more look in the mirror.
"Yes check and make sure your Bieber do is fine," she says. "Come on I have to pee or Im coming in and doing it and dont care if you see or not," She warned.
"Come on then," he challenged eyeing her in the mirror.
She was was'nt expecting that she was speechless. He was just saying that to be cute. Besides she was certain him and Santana went to the bathroom together all the time.
"That's what I thought," he smiled grabbed his red cup and slid past her from behind.
"Um, I guess," Mercedes was on stuck.
Before she closed the door though he leaned in front of her and whispered in her ear.
"I know you want me," he singsonged it and smiled walking away.
She had to hurry and get to the choir room she dropped her bag in her locker and grabbed her notebook. They were meeting before first period and that gave them just a good ten minutes before homeroom starts for everyone. When she walked into the choir room to greet her old family she was hit with such a force of shock she had to grab on to the doorframe. There he was sitting in his old chair. Talking and chatting like he never left. Smile still the same. He looked so different but the same. Sam.
"Mercedes you ok?" Mr Shue asked and Kurt rushed to her aid too.
"Yeah I um got a little dizzy I'll be fine," she reassured them. She looked back over and sure anough green eyes were looking back at her with worry.
"I got her Mr Shue our little diva probably running on just fumes," Kurt says. Mr shue walks off and Kurt loops his arm with hers. "Dont you answer your phone anymore?" he whispers.
"What is he doing here Kurt?" she whispers back.
He paused and stopped walking, "Take a wild guess," he said placing his hand on his hip.
She instantly became angry why the hell would Rachel and she was guessing Finn too, have him come back?
"Why?" is all she could manage after a short pause.
"Who knows with those two," he says. So she had guessed right.
"I cant be in here," Mercedes chocked out.
"Oh you'll be fine just sit next to me," he says grabbing her hand. "Such a drama queen," he laughed as they sat down.
She knew he was looking at her but she looked everywhere but at the body sitting in a chair next to her empty one in the top row. Kurt after much questioning a week after Sam left last summer wanted to know if what he seen (which was suppose to be a secret date at the drive in movie spot miles out) was legit. He seen kissing, hand holding and passionate glances. Who knew him and Blaine knew about that one drive in out of so many. Her mind also went back to Josh aka Jew fro and his back from summer vlog he broadcasted he had asked her was rumors true about her and Sam she denied and introduced Shane instead.
"Oh we are meeting in the auditorium today to hear a try out from a old member. Everyone welcome back Sam." Mr shue clapped and everyone wooted and so on.
"Damn Mercy you are so beautiful," he would whisper every so softly in her ear.
"So guys what comes to mind when you see this word?" Mr Shue speaking brought her back to reality which she was thankful.
Grease.
Rachel's hand flew in the air first, everyone sighed annoyed I just rolled my eyes she was public enemy number one at the moment she just could'nt know because that deserved an explaination she was'nt ready to give.
"It reminds me of the iconic musical that changed my life personally," Rachel chirped.
"Didn't you have a sad desperate hooker transformation of your very own Rach?" Santana laughed.
Kurt stiffled a laugh so did I. Wow talk about bad high school memories.
"Santana," Mr Shue scouled.
Rachel glared at her and swung her brunette hair as if the comment didn't offend her in the slightest but nobody was fooled. She'll be crying to Finn after this meeting.
"Well Rachel is right. Mr Figgins along with a few folks on the school commitee loved what we did with west side story they want us to put on another play," Mr Shue was very thrilled as he delievered the news to the club.
"Oh my God really?" Rachel squealed.
"They loved the diversity of it and plus I told them about the Rocky horror show too, so what do you say class?" he asked.
There was shouts, yes's and clap's of argreement and excitement. Mercedes stole a secret gaze at Sam. Damn he was really looking good. He was talking very animaded about something but she was to busy trying to picture him outta that jacket he was wearing. Kurt was suddenly turned in her direction looking right at her.
"Hello earth to planet obivisous," Kurt say waving his hand in her face.
"What?" she said.
"What part are you going to go for?" he asked.
"Oh I dont know yet," she answered.
"Well hopefully it does'nt end up with you venturing off again," he said with a glare then smiled at her. She could'nt help but to smile back.
The bell rung. "Dont forget auditorium." Mr shue called out.
Mercedes hurried out of the room but Sam was right on her heels.
"So Shane huh?" he asked walking alongside her without a care in the world.
"Look Sam I cant. So yes there is a new man in my life and me and you cant get back together. We had our time but that is over," she said.
"Who said anything about getting back together?" he asked with a smile.
She glared at him to stop the smile that she knew was coming, he laughed.
"I got your letter real cute," she said as she headed to her locker.
"What letter?" he smiled even more.
"Dont play me," she said as she put in her combination number.
He leaned over and whispered in her ear "You know you want me," a shiver went threw her as his minty breath was so close to her. "Incoming," he said as he backed up.
She was confused about what just happened.
"Remember auditorium." he shouted as he walked off.
"Hey babe," Shane's booming voice made her jump "Sorry I scared you," he chuckled. "Who was that?" he asked.
Mercedes didn't know what to say, "Oh no one just a guy trying out to be in glee club," she lied smoothly.
"Whats happening in the auditorium?"
"He's trying out," she said a little annoyed. Why was he all curious all of sudden or was it just her imagination?
"Oh," he said then seem to think about something. "Well can I come and watch?"
She was shocked. Nope it was'nt her imagination, "Sure if you want," she was hoping he would say no.
He kissed her cheek, "See you later babe," he said not answering her silent hope.
"So why cant we tell people?" Sam asked for the millionth time sounding like a broken record.
"Sweetz I told you not yet. We will eventually." Mercedes said.
They were sitting outside her house on the porch swing.
"You have yet to tell your family but my family knows. What is the real problem?" he asked.
"Why you say it like that?" she didn't like his tone.
"Are you? Are you ashamed of me? Of us?" he asked looking at her face for a reaction. He knew she could lie but he knew how to tell when she was lying and when she was being truthful.
She looked heartbroken well at least that's not the case. "How could you even fix your mouth to say something like that?" she was furious and started talking with her hands which Sam knew was her way of getting ready to explode and she didn't want to hit him so she'd talk with her hands to make them do anything other then hit.
"It's just I dont know anymore," he said and got up. He pulled out his keys. "Im just going to go," he said walking away.
She grabbed his free hand. "Why are you leaving?" she asked hurt.
"What was your excuse to your parents this time on why I was here tonight? Studying, glee club business?" he asked.
She didn't and could'nt lose Sam not now. He fit in her life so perfectly he made her feel like she was the most beautiful girl in the world. He told her every chance he got and she told him he was the most handsome guy in the world. And she told him every chance she got. They were like day and night but that's what made them so perfect. She stood up pulled his hand and they both walked inside her house.
"What are you?" he begun.
"Shut up," she said.
The two teens walked in to the Jones' sitting on the couch watching some game show. They turned the tv off once they saw the looks on both their faces. Mercedes' determation, Sam's fear beyond belief.
"Mercedes what is going on?" her mother asked.
"Well," she started she was squeezing the life out of Sam's hand it took all he had not to yell out in pain.
"Cedes," her dad scoled.
"Me and Mercedes are together," Sam blurted out.
Mercedes breathed out a relieved sigh. Her mother bit back a smile she was very pleased because she thought they were but didn't know for sure.
"How long this been going on," her dad asked.
"For a few weeks now I wanted to introduce myself a long time ago but Mercy said," Sam was cut off.
"Mercy?" her dad asked with a chuckle. "Well what did she say son?"
"She said she didn't want to tell you right away," he finished and he noticed Mercedes loosen her grip on his hand.
"Young diva got anything to say?" her dad asked using her nickname he called her since she was two and first found her voice.
"Well I thought you would'nt approve or something," she says.
"Would'nt approve? Are you kidding? He sure is better much better then that, what was that boy who looked like he had a dead animal on his head?" her dad asked.
"Puck," her mom chimed in.
"Yeah, now you aint some punk looking to get lucky and head out are you?" her dad stood.
"Oh no sir if Im lucky she'll be the one I marry," he boosted and smiled at Mercedes. She blushed.
"My kind of guy, well welcome to the family son," her dad shook his hand and brought him in for a hug. Her mother gave him a hug as well.
"Would you like something eat? I made a big pot of spagetti," her mother started ushering him into the kitchen.
"Are you happy?" her dad ask as he hugged her.
She looked at a smiling Sam. He was in the kitchen laughing with her mother. He looked at her and winked.
"Could'nt be happier," she said smiling back at him.
It seemed like the end of the school day came and gone much to Mercedes dismay. She met up with Kurt and Blaine and they headed to the auditorium. To her horror Shane was already there and sat next to Rachel and Finn. They sat down and the rest of the gang filled in and sat ready.
Sam came on stage. Mercedes was in awe at how good he was looking. He cut his hair and he didnt have that jacket on now she could admire he new fond sexyness. He toned up alot and she seen that the shirt he was wearing was close to ripping because his toned body was ready to break loose.
"Well hey everybody," Sam said into the mic with that famous crooked smile she loved so much. He sat on a stool that was placed in the middle of the stage next to his acoustic guitar.
"Oh just get it over with Trouty," Santana shouted but blew him a kiss.
He smiled, "Um since everybody kinda loved my Justin B phase I wanted to sing a song of his and it's very special to me. If Artie and Puck could join me and help me with back up that would rock," he said.
Puck grabbed a extra stool and sat next to him on stage Artie rolled on the other side of him. He whispered to both of them and they both nodded.
"This is for you," Sam simply said and Mercedes thought she would die. Kurt nudged her. He begun strumming his guitar. They all hamornized. And that's when he sung.
Everybody's laughing in my mind
Rumors spreading bout this other guy
Do you do what you did what you did with me
Does he love you the way I can
Did you forget all the plans that you made with me
Cause baby I didn't
He looked to the center of the auditorium. When they locked eyes it seemed like they were the only two in there.
That should be me holding your hand
That should be me making you laugh
That should be me this is so sad
That should be me
That should be me
That should be me feeling your kiss
That should be me buying you gifts
This is so wrong
I can't go on
'Till you believe
That that should be me
That should be me
She wanted to tell him she wanted it to be him but she was'nt coldhearted she did have feelings for Shane but it was'nt love. What she had with Sam was love or so she thought it was.
You said you needed a little time from my mistakes
It's funny how you used that time to have me replaced
Did you think that I wouldn't see you out at the movies
What you doin' to me
You're taking him where we used to go
Now if you're trying to break my heart
It's working cause you know
With Sam singing this song she knew that he felt the same way and seems he always did.
That that should be me holding your hand
That should be me making you laugh
That should be me this is so sad
That should be me
That should be me
That should be me feeling your kiss
That should be me buying you gifts
This is so wrong I can't go on
'Till you believe
That should be me
I need to know should I fight for love
Or disarm
It's getting harder to shield
This pain is my heart
Ooh Ooh
That should be me holding your hand
That should be me making you laugh
That should be me this is so sad
That should be me
That should be me
That should be me feeling your kiss
That should be me buying you gifts
This is so wrong
I can't go on
'Till you believe
That that should be me
Holding your hand
That should be me
The one making you laugh (oh baby oh)
That should be me
That should be me
Giving you flowers
That should be me
Talking for hours
That should be me (that should be me)
That should be me
That should be me
Never should've let you go
I never should've let you go
That should be me
I never shoulda let you go
That should be me
