Sam: was really excited for this double date with Joe and Tina. Things were looking up for him and Mercedes, and this date just cemented that fact. After getting dressed, he went out into the living room to wait for Mercedes. She came out right when he was and he was instantly blown away by how beautiful she looked, âYouâre gorgeous, Mercedes. WowâŚâ
Mercedes: was so excited to see Joe and Tina again, and also to have this time with Sam. Things were looking up for them, and she could actually see herself giving herself fully back to Sam. She made sure she looked extra special tonight, and seeing Samâs reaction let her know, she did it right, âThank you Sam, you look rather dashing yourself, we might be the hottest people in the room tonight.â She giggled, grabbing her purse, âYou ready to go?â
Joe: was all smiles during the drive over to the restaurant. It wasnât every day that they got to have a double date with Sam and Mercedes. The two had seemed to find their footing in the midst of all that drama. It was nice to see. âAre you excited for tonight, babe? Iâm sure weâre going to have a great time with Sam and Mercedes. Iâm glad they are getting along again. They need to for the sake of their baby.â
Tina: held Joeâs hand on the drive to the restaurant, she was glad they got a chance to actually interact with other people, not that she minded staying in bed with Joe, but she needed to check on her best friend, and this was the perfect way to do that. âI am excited to see Sam and Mercedes, itâs been too long since we hung out with them, but this time we have to promise not to ditch them.â She giggled.
Sam: âWeâre the only people in the room right now, so yeah, I would hope weâre the hottest people.â Sam laughed, kissed her cheek before taking her arm in his and leading her out to the car. He helped her inside the passenger seat and took his place on the drivers side. âThe last I remembered, they were the ones who ditched us. But I did remember ditching Joe at the restaurant. Poor guy.â He laughed.
Mercedes: giggled and shook her head at Sam, he was being so silly and carefree, she liked that. âI meant once we get to the restaurant crazy man.â She laughed again, getting in the car, and putting on her seat belt. She dropped her head at the memory of ditching Joe, âYeah we did do that, and I think he was trying to pay us back when he and Tina ditched us, but Iâm not mad though. As long as their happy, Iâm happy for them.â She looked out the window as they made their way to the restaurant.
Joe: nodded and smiled as he drove them to the restaurant. âNo, I donât plan on ditching them at all. Once was enough. I think Mercedes would kill me if we tried another stunt on them.â He laughed, although he was mostly sure that his best friend would murder him. He really wouldnât want to test that theory so tonight he was going to be on his best behavior. âDonât try to tempt me, alright? It would end up badâŚâ
Tina: laughed at how afraid of Mercedes Joe was, âMercedes would not murder you, she seems too nice for that, but youâre right, we shouldnât test it. Besides, I miss hanging out with Sam, heâs good for a laugh every now and then.â She didnât want to say that she was also worried about him, he didnât need to know that. She smirked hearing his last comment, âWell Iâll try, but donât you do anything super sexy to tempt me either, you know the things you do.â She licked her lips, and smiled at Joe.
Sam: smiled sheepishly at Mercedes. âOh, I didnât think of that part.â He laughed as he continued to drive them to their destination. âThey did look pretty happy together. I never knew that Tina was capable of being monogamous, but I guess she proved me wrong. Good for her. I just want to see her happy, you knowâŚâ Conversation between them flowed until they got to the restaurant. Sam parked the car and took Mercedesâ arm, leading her inside. âLetâs hope theyâre not late.â
Mercedes: could only laugh, Sam had this boyish quality about him that she found so hot and sexy, and the fact that he made her laugh was an added bonus. âI am glad that Joe could bring that out of her, he is such a good man, and he deserves to be happy. It looks like Tina does that for him, and I canâs see anyone better for him than her.â They pulled up to the restaurant, and Sam helped her out of the car and inside, âI donât think they will be too late, Joe is always very prompt.â
Joe: âYou donât know how bad her temper can be, babe. Trust me, I donât want to test that. Plus, sheâs pregnant, and you know how pregnant women can get when they are hungryâŚâ He laughed. âIâm sure you miss Sam, thatâs why weâre doing this tonight.â He smiled as he pulled into the restaurant. After parking the car, they were on their way inside with their hands clasped together.
Tina: smiled and nodded to what Joe was saying, he had a point, âOkay, I can see her being pregnant, and all, but we wonât have to worry about upsetting her, because we are not going to ditch them.â She sighed, âYeah I do miss Sam, and I think us getting together would be good for all of us.â They made it to the restaurant, and walked inside, âI know theyâre here, I saw Samâs car, but where are they?â She looked around and spotted them, âOh there they are.â She smiled and waved to Sam and Mercedes, before leading Joe to their table.
Sam: âThey are good for each other, they balance each other out.â He stated as they were shown to their seats. âYeah, Iâm sure that theyâll be here on time. Itâs not Joe that I worry about, Itâs Tina. The girl is a sex fiend.â Sam laughed before pulling up a chair for Mercedes and taking a seat right next to her. He had just pulled up the menu when Joe and Tina walked in. âWell, speak of the devil.â He laughed, âWe were just talking about you guys. Glad you two could make it.â
Mercedes: agreed with Sam, they were good for each other, and she had never seen Joe more happier than he was with Tina. She laughed hearing Sam call Tina a sex fiend, âWell if they are late due to sex, then Joe wouldnât have objected either,â She giggled, but then looked up in time to see them walking in. âThere they are now.â When they made it to the table, she got up and greeted them, âYou guys made it, Sam thought you were going to be late, because Tina made you guys have sex before you got here.â She sat down and smirked at Sam, knowing she just threw him under the bus.
Joe: smiled and scanned the room for his best friend and Sam. âI didnât even notice that they were here.â He shrugged his shoulders and finally spotted them when Tina pointed them out to him. âAhh⌠So they are here.â He smiled and led Tina towards the table. âHey, guys. Nice to see you to here.â He leaned down to give Mercedes a kiss on the cheek before smiling at Sam. âHowâs it going, man?â
Tina: walked over to Sam and Mercedes and greeted them both, âItâs so good to see you both.â She glared at Sam, after hearing what Mercedes said, âYou really think highly of me huh Sam? Not that Iâm offended or anything, I mean who wouldnât want to have sex with this sexy man.â She giggled and rubbed Joeâs thigh, âBut thatâs not what tonight is about, itâs about hanging out with friends. So howâs everything going in baby land?â She smiled and started looking at her menu.
Sam: smiled at Mercedesâ best friend and nodded at him, âItâs going good, man. Thanks for showing up and not being late. I know how this one can beâŚâ He pointed at Tina, teasingly and then rolled his eyes. âGod⌠See what I mean? Sheâs hopeless.â He laughed. Teasing Tina was one of the best things, she never took things to heart and he liked that about her. âThe babyâs growing and Mercedes and I are doing better together.â He told his best friend while staring into Mercedesâ eyes.â
Mercedes: laughed at how Tina came back at Samâs comment, she loved it. "Well I have to agree with Tina, Joe is looking good tonight.â She dusted off Joeâs shoulder, âUsually I would ask you if you were all dressed up for a woman, but now I know the answer to that.â She smiled hearing how Sam gushed about her and the baby, âThat we are, and I couldnât be happier. It has been a long road to get to this point, but itâs looking good now.â She took Samâs hands, and stared back into his eyes.
Joe: beamed at both women. âThank you, ladies. I feel like a million bucks sitting next to the both of you.â He chuckled at Mercedesâ remark, âYeah, I wanted to look nice for Tina.â He took Tinaâs hand and laced their fingers together. âTake it easy on Tina, Sam. Sheâs trying to be good tonight. Right, babe?â He winked at his girlfriend. Joe couldnât be happier to hear that Mercedes and Sam were on the mend, that was all he wanted to hear. âIâm glad that things are working out. You two deserve to be happy too. Just like Tina and I.â He looked at Tina and winked at her.
Tina: was so proud to be on Joeâs arm, and hearing him say he dressed for her, just made her feel good. âWell mission accomplished baby, you look like a million bucks.â She looked over at Sam and stuck her tongue out at him, âThatâs right baby, Iâm trying to be good, but you all know, Tina and being good is rarely in the same sentenceâŚâ She blew a kiss at Joe, âand thereâs a good reason for that too.â She smiled and picked up the menu looking over what she wanted to eat. âYeah, you guys need happiness in your lives, especially for that baby of yours. Now enough of all this chatter, letâs talk about the important things, what are we going to eat?â
Sam: felt his heart swell up at Mercedesâ words. It was important to him that they work towards getting back together, not only for their baby but for themselves as well. He picked up Mercedesâ hand and kiss the back of it. âWeâre getting back to that place, and weâre happy.â He said that to Tina. âAnyway, youâre right, letâs order. Iâm starving! I donât know what Iâm going to order yet, so letâs just look at the menu.â
Mercedes: smiled back at Sam, âYes we are.â She was on the path of happiness again, and seeing Joe with Tina, and how happy he was, only added to her happiness. She giggled hearing Tina asking about the food, âYouâre right Tina, itâs time to eat, enough of this talking.â The rest of the date was as smooth as they all knew it would be, they had a great time talking and catching up, and even agreed to do this again real soon.

Hearing that Mercedes loved him made him feel as though he could fly. "It's so good to hear you say that you love me." He smiled, "I almost thought that I would never hear those words again. I'm glad we're moving past things. Because I really can't imagine a life without you in it." He chuckled at her next words, although he really couldn't say much because being around her was a huge temptation and not to mention distraction as well. "I can't resist you as well, but I am trying very hard... Like right now for instance, I really want to kiss you, but I'm worried that you might slap me silly for even bringing up the topic."

Sam wanted to jump from his seat, run around the place a few times and kiss Mercedes passionately for what she was telling him. She acknowledged the fact that he loved her, and not only that, that he was actually doing something to make the situation between them right. That made him feel like a million bucks. Suddenly full, he wiped his mouth and hands and reached out for her hands. Giving the digits a firm squeeze, he looked into her eyes and let out what he had been thinking all this time, "I love you, Mercedes, and I love our baby. I know that we still have a lot to work out, but I'm happy to be here. I'm happy to be given a chance to love work on making things right for us. Because I really do want this, I want you to be with me forever. I can't picture anyone else with me, but you." Smiling, he picked up her hand and gave the back of it a kiss.

"Oh... I don't feel so bad now then. It must be old way of saying things." Sam laughed off his stupidity. "But thanks. I'm glad that you liked it." The day that he thought was already great, became even better when she complimented him for his initiative and not only that, but also kissed him. He felt a blush creeping up his cheeks. This was unheard of. He never blushed, but yet here he was acting like a virginal school boy when the woman that he loved kissed him. "Not that I'm complaining that you're kissing me, but what was that for?" He asked, unsure if she was only kissing him out of gratitude for the picnic or if she in fact did it because she felt her anger and guard towards him being lifted.

"You know, I've never actually heard that expression before. Put my foot into something... Must sound dumb to you, huh?" Sam laughed, peeling off the skin of the fried chicken before he bit into the crunchiness. "Mmm... Yummy." He moaned in pleasure. "Eat up. There's plenty for you, me and the baby." He smiled. Her question was easily answered. "It's the beautiful weather and the fact that I wanted to spend some time with you. We said that we were going to try again, so why not start now?" He smirked.

Sam was happy to hear that Mercedes liked the food. It was good, he thought too. He wasn't much of a cook, but he was glad that he didn't screw up the fried chicken at least. "Yes, I did. I'm not the best cook, but I can definitely cook up some mean fried chicken." He said in a laughing tone before he lowered his head to bite into his fried chicken. "Eat up. I made plenty. Our baby is going to need nutrition to grow." He smiled, "I know it's not healthy stuff, but hey, food is food, right?"

"I got us some Fried Chicken and all the fixings." His stomach involuntarily rumbled and he laughed a little at that. "Sorry, I'm starving, running around has got me starving." She wanted to help, and he really would let her, but he didn't want her to have to lift a finger today. "No, I'm fine. You just relax. I'll have everything done, okay?" He smiled before setting off to work to get lunch ready. Five minutes later, they were both enjoying their food. "How's the food? Good, I hope? I'm so hungry, everything taste like heaven." He confession, letting out a chuckle.

Sam beamed, happy that Mercedes had agreed with his suggestion. He wanted this to be perfect, and for that to happen, he had to have Mercedes be a willing participant. "Great. Let's do this then." He led her out of the house and to the back yard where their picnic was waiting. He didn't have to ask what she thought of the picnic before she was complimenting his work. It made him feel proud that he was able to pull this in the short time that he gave himself. "I thought it was a great day for us to enjoy our meal outside." He smiled, a little tingle traveling to his cheek as she kisses them. "Now, let's eat." He told her as he set up their meal.

Backyard Picnic || Samcedes
It was a few days after the move and sun was shining. Not wanting to waste the opportunity, Sam used this as his chance to make a picnic for both him and Mercedes. He got the food, laid out the blanket and once everything was ready, he went to call for Mercedes who was in her room. "Mercedes," He knocked, "Are you hungry? I cooked for us, we could have a picnic in the backyard..

Another Episode || Samcedes
When: Wednesday night
Where: Samcedesâ new home
Notes: Mercedes witnesses one of Samâs mental breakdown
There it goes again. Out of the corner of his eyes, he could see his dad, smiling at him, taunting him. Sam has been trying to ignore him for the past few hours, but as time passed, he was losing his patience, then finally, he snapped. "Go away, old man! You're not here and I'm not crazy!" He swore loudly enough that he was sure that Mercedes would hear him.
Mercedes was walking back from the kitchen, from getting a glass of water, when she heard Sam screaming out to someone in his bedroom. She didn't think anybody was there with him, but he was indeed talking to someone. His tone scared her a little, because he sounded angry, so she decided to knock, "Um, Sam, are you okay?" She leaned against the door to try to hear what was going on in there.
The mocking tone on his dad's voice, agitated Sam even more. "Go away! I don't want you here!" He grabbed the pillows on his bed and begin throwing it in the direction of Henry Evans. Sam couldn't see anything past reason now. All he could hear was his dad's laughter and mocking words, getting louder and louder by the minute.
Mercedes was confused at this point, all she heard from Sam was him yelling saying go away, "Fine Sam, I'll leave you alone, but you don't have to yell." Her feelings were extremely hurt, but then she heard noises and things being thrown, and that scared her, so she decided to just go in, "Sam! What's going on here?" Sam was not answering, and he looked possessed and angry, and it scared her. She made her way to him and put her hand on his shoulder, "Sam, what's going on with you?"
Sam's head was hurting, his skull felt like it was about to bust apart, and all he could do was scream at Henry to leave. "Leave! I never want to see you again!" He couldn't hear anything past the pain he was in. He only snapped back from the trance he was in when Mercedes touched him. "Mercedes, did you see him? He was right here, he was mocking me." He told her frantically, his eyes searching everywhere, trying to get another glimpse of Henry, but of course he had disappeared by now.
Mercedes was now really scared, Sam was screaming at the top of his lungs, and he was not looking right at her, but past her. She had never seen him like this before. Finally he looked at her, but she could see in his eyes that something was still off, and he was asking questions about seeing someone, "Who Sam? There's nobody in here." She looked around and saw that no one was there, "Sam please calm down, try to relax, there's no one here but you and me. Take a deep breath, and please calm down." She didn't know what was going on, but she hoped he would calm down.
"My dad. My dad." He answered her, his eyes still scanning the room. Sweat was pouring from his face, and despite only being with Mercedes, his heartbeat was irregular, pumping too hard for his comfort. "He's here, Mercedes. He keeps showing up and giving me hell. He's telling me that I'm a bad father, and that I will hurt you and our baby. I'm not going to!" Then just so Henry could hear him, he shouted to the air, "I'm not going to hurt my family, you hear me!? I love them!"
Mercedes was so scared at this point, Sam was screaming at her that his dad was there, but there was no one there but the two of them. "Sam, there's no one here, baby please try to calm down." She was rubbing his back, hoping that would help, but it didn't seem to b working. She listened as he told him what his "father" was telling him, and she was so confused, "Sam, that does not even sound like something your dad would say. He was a kind and good man, and I know he would be excited about this baby, and you being a good father." He started yelling again, and she jumped out of fear, covering her ears, "Sam please relax!" She was trembling, and felt completely hopeless.
If he could, he would kill whatever demons who was impersonating his father. Mercedes was right, Henry Evans would have never done this. He was a loving father first and foremost, but even despite all of that reasoning, he couldn't dispute the fact that it was his father's face that was tormenting him. "He looks like my dad, Mercedes. Why would that demon look like my dad?" he said hysterically. Maybe he's the angel of death. He might be coming to collect my soul. He wanted to add, but hadn't even admitted to Mercedes to Mercedes that he was dying, and he didn't want to talk about it now. Eventually, he was able to calm down enough to talk reasonably with Mercedes. He breathed deeply and looked her in the eyes. "I'm fine. I'm fine. It must just be the medications that I'm taking and how tired I've been lately."
Mercedes was concerned about Sam, and now hearing that he was hallucinating, and seeing his dad in a demon form, that concerned her more. "Sam, whatever this is, it's playing tricks on you, and messing with your head. It chose to take your dad's likeness, because it is the total opposite of who he was, and it knows that you would take it more seriously coming from your dad, but it's not him, and you have to fight it. Don't listen to anything it says, because you are going to be an amazing dad, and I know you will never hurt me or this baby. Trust me, if I didn't think you would be a good dad, I wouldn't be here." Seeing him finally start to calm down, made her do the same. He assured that he was fine, and it was the medication that was messing with him, and she had to take his word for it. "Okay Sam, we need to take you to the doctor, and maybe get them to change your medication. Also you need to rest, and I am going to make sure you do that." She pulled him in for a hug, "What do you need? What can I do for you to help you get through this?"
Sam was grateful that Mercedes bought his story. He didn't want to worry her beyond what he was already doing to her, and knowing that he might be dying would definitely put a lot of worry on her. She didn't need that. It was already stressful enough for her right now, and he wanted to make sure that she was always healthy. "We'll do that. I will ask my doctor to change my medication." He said, reassuring her. When she hugged him, he felt solace and relaxed. He never wanted for that feeling to end. "Can I get you to cuddle up with me until I fall asleep?" Sam asked, feeling vulnerable and scared that she would deny his request.
Mercedes was glad that Sam agreed to talk to his doctor, and get his medication changed, that was a good start to getting him back on track. "Good, I'll even go with you if you want." The last thing Mercedes wanted was for Sam to see her nerves, she needed t be strong for him, so she was going to be his rock." Hearing his request made her smile, she liked knowing that her presence could keep him calm. "Sure Sam, I will stay with you." She got into the bed, and held her arms out, so he would join her. Once they were comfortable, she wrapped her arms around him, and held him close, softly singing in his ears, and stroking his hair until he fell asleep. She didn't even bother leaving after he was sleep, so she fell asleep right after he did, and they both rested peacefully for the rest of the night.

Sam smiled when she took his hand. He led her out of the room and continued to speak, "I have no doubts about us. We will make things work because I want to make things work and so do you." They watched the movers for a while and he chuckled at her comment, "No, it's a little sad actually, but I'll be fine." He sighed, taking comfort at her touch, "Yeah, let's go. It's time for us to go home..." They both headed to the car and although he was still a little sad about leaving his old home, he was looking forward to starting a new life in his new one, with Mercedes and their unborn baby.

Sam nodded his head. Although he wanted more, he respected her decision. He didn't want to force the situation. Things had to progress in due time, "Of course. I'm here, I'll wait. We'll get there eventually." He smiled at her before standing up because being so close to her without touching her was literally killing her, "I'm ready to start moving. If you're ready, let's get out of here." He took a lasting look at the room, a smile playing on his lips. "Now come on. We have a lot going on today." He offered his hand out to her and waited for her to take it.

Sam was relieved that Mercedes didn't judge and that she understood where he was coming from fully. "Thank you. It's a little scary, you know..." He squeezed her hand back, finding comfort in her touch. It was always a good feeling to have when Mercedes was trying to comfort him. It meant that they were moving in the right direction. "I'll be okay though. I'm sure it won't always be scary, especially with having you in my life." Her question about their sleeping situation didn't catch him off guard at all, he expected it because although they were moving in the right direction, they weren't completely solid yet, it was understandable for her to have questions, "If you'd like your own room, you can have that. I'm not going to force you, Mercedes. We'll go at your pace, alright?"

Today was a bitter sweet day. He was moving out of his penthouse, his bachelor pad and moving into a new home that he would co-own with Mercedes. It was exciting, yet gut wrenching as well. Today signified the end of his bachelorhood. It wasn't that he was afraid of commitment, he was afraid of not being good enough, or being able to be there for his family. That was his biggest fear in all of this. "I am, but I'm a little sad as well." He smiled at Mercedes before looking around the barren room, "This was my first home. I'm always going to miss it just a little bit, but I am also happy that we're going to be doing this. It will be good for us, and our baby."
Moving Day || Samcedes
Mercedes couldnât believe that today was the day, that she and Sam were going to move into their new home. It was so beautiful, and everything that she wanted to in a home, this house had to offer. The movers were already putting things in the truck, and she was directing them to where they were everything was and needed to go. She walked into the bedroom where Sam was and sat on the bed next to him, âAre you ready for the move? I mean, are you as excited as I am?â She smiled, âI canât wait to get everything in the house and set it up just the way we want it.â
