Author's Note: Just a pronunciation note. When Sam calls Mercedes "Cedes" he pronounces it like Sadie or "say-D" or "say-dee". Hopefully this makes sense - haha. Enjoy the chapter! Reader discretion is advised.

The golden riverbank wound through the calming serpentine stream and into a lavender-scented meadow. Encased around pinnate shrubs of grey-green leaves of scattered lilac shoots flowing in the air, a sepia complexion teenage girl with crinkled dark brown hair was covered under a red and white Letterman jacket. Lying beneath her on the soiled earth, with one arm over his head and the other still intertwined with hers, was an ivory skinned guy with bleach blond hair. He was looking up into the darkened morning sky of shapeshifting clouds in navy blue and dark fuchsia gliding ahead of them. His royal blue eyes drifted down to glance at her and noticed that her eyes were still closed from sleep. He glanced back up to the pale morning sky, still feeling the dewiness of the air softly sprinkling his cheeks, as the shadows of the bare trees lightened above them. He didn't notice her waking up at first, as her eyes peeked out from under his jacket wondering where the birds were chirping from, before shifting her head up at him with a smile. He instantly returned a wide smile to her and with no prior intention or thought he felt the incomprehensible feeling and abruptly leaned in to press his lips onto hers. The tug they shared between them quickly magnified as his heart raced and his body warmed once he felt her further kissing him back. Her breath hitched as his tongue wrapped around hers before moaning onto his lips. He groaned back onto hers causing him to pull her closer to him as he felt everything in his body rise within him - never wanting to let go.
"Quinn's right Cedes," Sam revealed to her and palmed her cheek feeling an uplift of clarity and want in him. He began once they finally came up for air but slightly away from each other as they felt their ragged breaths upon each others' lips, "I'm..."
"I know," Mercedes returned a soft smile as she saw, heard, and felt everything Sam proclaimed to be true. She said as she looked into his royal blue eyes and gently weaved her hand through his shaggy blond hair. She watched as Sam leaned closer to her with a huge grin on his lips before closing her eyes and feeling them softly pressing against hers.
"I don't want to go back," she said once she innately positioned herself on top of him again.
"Me neither," he replied back instinctively furthering light kisses down her chest to smoothly roll her over – wanting to be on top.

Quinn Fabray's crimson Volkswagen bug was parked in its usual spot at the school parking lot. Fifteen minutes – on the dot – before school started, she applied a light coat of her ruby red lipstick on her lips as she waited for Sam to arrive. They had a procedure to fulfill regardless of ones' feelings. They were to walk to class together as usual and with his recent departure from yesterday they still needed to make up for their homeless drive as well as prepare for their interview with Jacob in promoting their prom campaign. Quinn had noticed that once the first bell had rung there was no indication of Sam...nor Mercedes. She decided to walk into the hallway, not with embarrassment but with full force confidence, smiling to those who need it and expect it because at the end of the day it'll be her on the ballot as the number one candidate for prom queen. She approached her locker to touch up that needed to be touched up and began flipping through her schedule. She glanced through what she had planned for the day until the final bell had rung – still Sam had yet to be by her side.
