Brenda's POV

Then next time I woke up, Sam had one of his arms draped lightly over my stomach and back, rubbing the part of my stomach under my belly button, where the cramps hurt the most. I groaned quietly, because of the pain, and turned around to face Sam, who was looking at me with worry in his eyes. I used my legs to push myself higher up on the bed so that I'm eye to eye with him. I put my hand on his cheek.

"You okay?" I asked.

"Better now that I've got some sleep. I haven't 'cuddled', you could say, with my mom in a long time. And I guess she just made me feel a lot better."He said.

"Mama's always tend to make us feel better." I said, smiling at him slightly.

"I think...I think I'm done crying about it, even though I'm still sad about it, but I know he wouldn't want me crying over him." I nodded, caressing his cheek.

"You know he's in a better place now Sam. But hey, he might be with my grandma and dad right now, telling them all about you." I said, making him smile. He nodded.

"I know, I just miss him. I haven't seen him in a really long time."

"I know, Sam." I said, sitting up. I slapped his upper leg lightly."Come on. Let's go get some chocolate ice cream." I said. He laughed and sat up. He picked Bella up and followed me down stairs while she licked his face. The only people here now are Rachel, Finn, Quinn, Puck, there kids, Blaine, Kurt, Santana, and Brittany. The Evans and O'Neil's were outside, trying to make the best of a bad situation. Mercedes was sitting on the couch, and Chord was on the recliner, the leg rest up, his legs crossed, and little Josie lying on her stomach on his chest. I awe'd as I passed him and went to the kitchen. Sam sat on the couch and I went in the kitchen, grabbing two spoons and the chocolate ice cream. I gave Sam one spoon and sat beside him.
