Hello everyone, finally an update. I want to apologized for taking so long, especially to those of you I promise I would update and then didn't. Its not that I didn't want to update, but as you know life gets in the way and unfortunately writing fanfiction its not going to help me pass my classes or keep a roof over my head. I really enjoy writing fanfiction and I love doing so without anything hanging over my head, its so liberating to just focus on what you enjoy and now that I'm on break that's exactly what I'm doing. Hope you enjoy the chapter. Thanks for sending your reviews, adding to your favorites, following, and not forgetting this story it even if I've been lousy at updating.

"It's confirm, its photoshoped." Said Puck as he placed the picture on Sam's desk.

"I knew it." Sam got up from his desk and starting walking around his office. "Last night I confronted Finn and of course he denied everything. But then I talked to Mercedes and she told me the whole truth."

"You mean…

"That Finn introduced himself with my name, falsified documents etcetera, etcetera." Sam said getting angry.

"And her family"

"They all found out after my suppose death."

"You are going to sue them for fraud right?"

"No, I'm not going to do that. I won't' do that."

"Sam, I think you've become enamored with her."

"No, don't you understand. Mercedes is a victim in all of this. The one I should be suing for fraud is Finn."

"True, but think of your family."

"What about her and her family. A family desperate, force to lie and deceit." Sam shouts angrily. The phone rings and Sam picks up. "Let him in." He turns to Puck. "I suppose you don't agree."

"I think you're letting yourself be manipulated by a woman with the face of an angel but who is very conniving."

"That we will see." Responds Sam before Finn opens the door and comes in.

"Mom tells me you want me to leave."

"That's right."

"Alright I'll leave."

"Really, I didn't expect for you to accept so readily."

"But I need money."

"Don't you have enough in your account?"

"Yes, but…I want more."

"How much.'

"Ten million."

Sam chuckles. "Don't you think you're exaggerating?"

"Come on, that's chunk change for you."

Sam thought of Mercedes. If Finn left, he would leave her alone. He would no longer manipulate and hurt her. He could finally have a chance to start a real relationship with her. "I'll give you half. Take it or leave it"

Finn thought about it. "Okay."

"I'll have Sunshine wire the money." Finn turns to leave but he's stopped by Sam.

"And Mercedes.' He says smiling. "Don't you care, are you really going to leave her to me." Taunted Sam smugly. It took everything in Finn in him not to punch Sam in the face and walk away.

"You're provoking him."

"Because I want him to blow." Screams Sam angrily. "I'm going to call extra security in case he tries to take her."

"Sam remember that you only have a month from the date of the wedding to have an annulment. Unless the marriage was consummated. So think about what you're going to do, because you're running out of time." Sam look angry yet pensive.

"Hey can I borrow one of your shoes mine are so ugly." Asked Tina entering Mercedes room.

"Of course, just don't scratch them."

"I won't. So what was up with Sam last night, he looked furious."

"I guess he and Finn had an argument."

"About what?"

"I don't know, issues between them I guess."

"Anything to do with you."

"No."

"You know I get the impression that he's a very possessive guy."

"Finn?"

"No, not Finn. Sam, he's obviously jealous of Finn. Which means he likes you."

"Maybe, but in what way it's the question."

"Who cares, you're his wife. And if you're trying to tell me you're indifferent to him, you're lying your ass off. No one would be indifferent to a guy like that."

"Too bad Finn didn't choose you, you would have no problem sleeping with him."

"Not in the least."

Mercedes gives Tina money. "Look I want you to go to the mall and buy dad two shirts and a pair of pants."

"And what about me. I don't want to keep dressing like this, people keep judging me."

"Tina we don't have a lot of money left."

"Then tell Sam to give you some."

"No. Tina you have to get it through your head that this will end."

"Why? Why does it have to end?"

"Because it is." Mercedes put the rest of the money in her purse and left the room. Tina was about to leave then went back and took the money from Mercedes purse before leaving the room.

Mercedes ran into Carol, who asked to talk to her. They sat in one of the terrace.

"I saw you with my son Finn. I just want to ask you to please not to accept any invitation he may have made to you. Sam might take it the wrong way. They had an argument last night and I don't want another."

"Trust me, it's not me who seeks him out… What I mean it's, that we all are in this house."

"Still, listen to me." They see Sam arriving.

"Son you're back early."

"I forgot some documents. Excuse us mother." He says pulling Mercedes away.

"Finn came to me asking for money to leave. Did he asked you to leave with him?"

"Yes."

"Did you accept?"

"No."

"Then what? He's leaving alone?"

Mercedes sights. "He thinks he's going to convince me."

"Why did you say no?"

"Because I want to be honest with you. I want you to know that I'm a good person and I have to admit that I'm hoping you won't sue me and that you give me a divorce." She responds entering his office.

"All of this that has happen to us, it's so strange. Do you believe in destiny?"

"I don't know. Maybe, or maybe it's just life, the mistakes we make."

"Well, I hope I'm not making a mistake with you."

"The only thing I can say it's that I'm very sorry. That I wish this have never happen."

He approaches her. "Why don't we give ourselves a chance Mercedes? Don't you like me?'

"Yes. But I'm afraid that you'll use me too. You guys are so different from us."

"If what you mean by different is money, that doesn't matter, it's just paper. Underneath it all we are all humans, and we feel, just like you." He lowers his lips to meet hers and kisses her sweetly. Mercedes kisses him back but he can feel her apprehension.

"Does it bother you?"

"No, I just don't know if I'm doing right or wrong." He chuckles and kisses her again putting his arm around her. He holds her face in his other hand deepening the kiss. He can't get enough of her sweet lips, if he were to die this moment he would die a happy man. He lowers his hand to her waist and pulls her towards him. The feel of her body against his brings cock to attention. Mercedes can fell the bulge of his pants swelling and feels herself getting wet but can't stop herself from kissing him back.

Finn walks in and looks devastated at the sight. Sam notices they are no longer alone and pulls back. "How many times have I told you to knock before coming in?"

"You left without authorizing the wire transfer." Finn passed a folder to Sam.

Sam takes it to his desk and signs it. "When are you leaving?" He asks returning the folder.

"As soon as possible." Answers Finn looking hurt at Mercedes. Mercedes tries to avoid his gaze.

"Well Mercedes and I hope you have an excellent trip. Right love." He kisses her lips while putting his hand around her waist possessively pulling her to him.

"Yeah."

Finn leaves.

Mercedes moves away from Sam looking upset. "You're provoking him intentionally and I don't like it. What plans do you have for me?"

"What were Finn's plan, had I died and you as my suppose widow would have inherited everything. What was he going to do, marry you?"

"Yes, but I told him I would never do it."

"But you love him, and a woman in love always ends up forgiving…

"NEVER, I will never forgive him for what he did to me. But you have yet to tell me what's going to happen with me. Finn is leaving the country. Are you going to wait for him to leave so you can put all the blame on me? Because I won't go down without a fight and I will tell everyone everything, how he used a fake name and force me into this."

"Don't worry I won't."

"How do I know that? He's your brother and I'm just a stranger."

Someone knocks on the door. "Sir the extra security you order is here."

"Why the extra security?"

"Let's just say its protection."

"It's my understanding that this is not the first time someone tries to kill you. Finn said that you have a lot of enemies."

Sam scoffs "And you still believe him after everything he's put you through."

"I know, but I don't know you, who you were before I met you."

"Mercedes, did I tell you that what happen with the trailer was intentional. That it was coming straight for my car and that an innocent man I have picked up died and maybe even his wife as well."

"No, I didn't know. But I don't think Finn…

"Finn, Finn stop mentioning him." Sam shouted losing his temper. "Don't you see that he's capable of that and much more?" Sam pauses and looks at her suspiciously. "Finn is leaving and you want a divorce. And I'm sure that in time you'll meet up again and get back together and live happily ever after." He's jealousy was showing.

"I am never going to marry him." Insisted Mercedes shouting.

"Alright. We'll get divorce and you will get half of what I made since we've been marry."

"I told you I don't want your money. Nothing, it's that clear."

"Crystal."

"Hey."

"Hey, you're Sam's sister in law am I right?"

'Yes, Tina."

"I'm Marley."

"Nice to meet you. So how do you know the Evans?"

"Our families are old friends. I just came to see Rachel, but I'm leaving now."

"Tina let's go… oh I'm sorry Ms. I did not see you there."

"It's alright sir, I'm Marley." She said extending her hand.

"Peter Jones. It's nice to meet you young Ms."

"The pleasure its mine, please call me Marley. Are you on your way out."

"Yes, we are going to the mall."

"Well in that case let me take you."

"Oh no, we don't want to impose."

"You're not imposing anything Mr. Jones. I'm offering. I was on my way out myself."

Mercedes comes closer to the group.

"Mercedes look, this is Marley, we met her at the suppose funeral."

"Yes, hello."

"You wedding to Sam has been a huge shock to everyone. You're very pretty." Comments Marley.

"Thank you."

"Of course if Sam was to get marry he would choose someone out of the ordinary. Did you know he and my sister Quinn used to date?"

"Yes, I heard."

"But they only dated on and off, never anything official. But don't think that because of that I have anything against you. No, no, if my sister and Sam didn't work out, no one is to blame. Much less you."

"I know."

"We are having a party tomorrow night, want to come?

"I don't know, I'll have to talk to Sam."

"Uhg don't slave yourself away to married life. If he doesn't want to come, then leave him at home."

"Yeah, Mercedes please I want to go." Begged Tina.

"I'll think about it."

"I hope to see you there. Ready to go, I'm taking them to the mall." Marley explain to Mercedes.

"We don't want to bother."

"It's no bother Mr. Jones."

Mercedes watch as they left. At that moment she saw Sam's best friend arrived. He look at her with suspicion. It didn't take a genius to know that he didn't trust her. A part of her felt relief that at least Sam had a friend who was concern about his wellbeing. Puck nodded to her in acknowledgement and went inside. She saw him go directly to Sam's office.

"Hey."

"It's official, I just called Brittany to start the divorce proceedings. We decided on separation of property."

Puck nodded but didn't say anything.

"I know you don't trust her, but I know her better than you and I'm convince that she's a victim."

"You don't have to explain yourself to me, you're entitle to make your own decision. I only want you to be careful. It's easy to sympathize with a sweet and pretty woman that shows herself as a victim of a man you detest."

"The enmity between us goes back decades."

"Exactly so again, be careful with her. Anyway I talked to Beiste she's still investigating the scene. See if she can find any trace of the woman."

"Good, we need to find her."

"Sir, lunch is ready."

"Join us for lunch?"

"Of course. God you're whipped. You used to never come home for lunch." Chuckled Puck.

"Shut up."

They sat down at the table with Carole, Finn and Mercedes. It didn't take long for Finn to start antagonizing Sam and for them to start arguing.

"Enough. For once I would like to have a peaceful meal between my sons." they stop arguing.

"Sorry we're late, Marley invited us to lunch."

"Yes, that was very nice of her."

"Well then at least join us for coffee." They sat at the table.

"Mercedes did you tell Sam about the party?"

"No…"

"What party?"

"Marley is having a party and she invited us." Answered Tina excited.

"Yeah, but I don't feel like going."

"Why, you love to party. Mercedes is an amazing dancer, she can dance all night and not get tire. She loves dancing, we used to go out dancing all the time."

"Tina, that's enough."

"I would love to take you." Said Sam smirking.

"Yeah, we should go. It was very nice of Marley to invite us and it would be seen like we're antisocial if we don't go."

"You're sister right." Said Finn looking at Mercedes. "You must start introducing yourself to high society. Besides I'm sure my brother would love to show you off to his friends. He always enjoys parading his women around."

"Finn, how can you say that?" admonish Carole

"It's the truth. It's no secret Sam has dated the most beautiful women. Sam loves displaying his girlfriends." Mercedes looked annoyed.

"Finn stop saying things like that."

"It's okay mother, Mercedes knows I've dated other women. Besides that just goes to show I have good taste in women. Don't you agree Finn? Isn't Mercedes the most beautiful woman you have ever laid eyes on?" taunted Sam. Finn lost his smirk when Sam kissed Mercedes.

"I would love to accompany you to the party. You know all I want is to please you."

"They're right it's not good to be indoors all the time. I think it would be good for you to get out of the house, have some fun." Carole told Mercedes

"Alright we'll go." Decided Mercedes.

"Whohoo we're going to have so much fun." Tina said excited, then lost her smile. "But we don't have anything appropriate to wear. Right Mercedes." Mercedes looked annoyed at Tina.

"You don't have to worry about that." Said Sam making Tina smile.

"Why? Why can't you just keep your mouth shut?" Yelled an angry Mercedes as she walks in the garden with her father and Tina.

"And what go to the party in the clothes we have, we would be the laughing stock of New York City." Scream Tina.

"Then why did you insist on going to this party knowing you didn't want to go with the clothes you have. Do you think Sam is going to keep giving us money whenever we need it? I told you to that this will end. Get it through your thick head."

"But until then, we should milk the situation for all we can. Besides you heard Finn, Sam always goes out with beautiful, elegant women."

"Yeah, that's another reason why I don't want to go."

"But you agree to go anyway, even before I mention the clothes."

"Because I'm tire of Sam and Finn using me as a pretext to start fighting. It's very annoying."

"Please girls calm down."

"No dad, I'm tire of Mercedes conformity. You have a multibillionaire husband and you can't even ask you to buy you decent clothes, and not so much for you, but for him so you don't embarrass him."

"Sam it's not my husband."

"Oh really? Didn't you marry a man name…oh what's his name SAM EVANS, aren't you living in his house. Doesn't he treat you like his wife?"

"Tina's right, you're marry to that man. There's a marriage certificate."

"A fraudulent marriage certificate dad. Sam never sign that document, he never chose me to be his wife."

"But he looks so happy, so in love with you."

"You guys don't understand, you will never understand." Mercedes leaves, Sam who is leaving his room catches up with her.

"Hey beautiful."

"Don't call me that. Leave the pickup lines to your beautiful elegant women." She says as she enter her room, Sam follows and closes the door.

Sam noticed she was annoyed. "What's wrong?"

"I'm not a toy for you and your brother to play with, and I don't want you to mock me and please stop lying."

"Why are you getting mad, we are living a lie."

"Still you shouldn't have said those things." Mercedes turn her back on him.

"What things."

"That I'm beautiful and that all you want is to please me."

Sam chuckles and stands close behind her. "If I had chosen to marry; of all the women I know I would have chosen you." He rubs his hands on her arm. "You're the best in many ways." He says snuggling her neck.

"That's not true." She said shrugging off his hands.

Sam doesn't give up and encloses his arms around her. "It's true. Mercedes I want to give us a chance. You captivate me, I'm completely enthrall with you."

"Sam, I'm… scare."

"Of what?"

"I notice there's a great enmity between you and Finn and I don't want to be used. It's that your intention?"

"My only intention is for you to accept an invitation to dinner tonight."

"Okay."

"Great."

"Tomorrow night they are going to a party, while there I'm going to take them with me."

"Should I rent a private plane?" asks Tim Finn's personal servant.

"No, that's the first place Sam would look. We're driving to the border. I need you to get Mercedes and Tina's passport from their house and get a fake passport for her dad, we don't have time to wait for a legitimate one."

"But sir."

"Just do it, go now."

Finn enters a restaurant where Quinn is waiting for him.

"I'm surprise you called me."

"Remember what you talked to me about?"

"Yes, you ignore me."

"Well it turns out that Mercedes wants a divorce."

"Really." Quinn says delighted. "Why?"

"Because she and Sam are constantly fighting and she wants nothing to do with him. He practically has her kidnapped and gave orders for her not to be let out of the premises."

Quinn smiles turns into disgust. "God, is he that much in love with her."

"It's not that, you know how stubborn Sam can be. Marley said you guys were having a party."

"Yeah so."

"Marley invited Mercedes and Sam is going with her. What I need is for you to distract Sam so Mercedes can take advantage and leave."

"Are you taking her with you?"

"Of course"

"Well then, absolutely, you can count on me."

Sam and pulls Mercedes to the dance floor.

"I want us to put the cards on the table. You already know about me, my history, how I got here. But I don't know much about you." They start slow dancing looking at into each other's eyes.

"What do you want to know?" asks Sam.

"Well you have behave like a gentleman, you have been very considerate with me and my family, but Finn told me that you're only being nice because….

"Because I want to make love to you."

"Is it true? Is that your condition for you to let me go?"

"And if it were?" he snuggles up to her neck making her shiver. "Would you do it, if it meant I let you go with your family, give you a divorce and get out of your life, would you sleep with me?"

Mercedes looks away uncomfortable. "What's the matter?" he caresses her face. "Are you worry that I'll get mad if you say no?" Mercedes nods.

"And I haven't been with anyone."

"I get it, you need to be in love to take that step."

"Yeah… But that is what you want?"

"Well I'd be lying if I said no. I want you, god do I want you. But I would never pressure you."

"Isn't that you've been doing. You flirt with me, you compliment me, you take me out, you buy me gifts…

"Hey, I like being with you and pleasing you, is that bad?"

"No, but if it never amount to anything."

"Then too bad." He said shrugging his shoulders.

"So you'd let me go."

"Why? So you can go back to Finn." He said jealously.

"No, no…

"If I were sure that you wouldn't do it then maybe I would."

"I told you I won't."

"I don't want words Mercedes, I want actions."

The song ended and they decided to head home. He walks her to her room.

"I made arrangements with Kurt to help you with whatever you need."

"You didn't have to do that."

"It's my pleasure."

"I just don't feel comfortable. If you were really my husband…"

"I'll make you a deal. If it makes you that much uncomfortable, then when you go you can leave everything I bought you if you want."

"Yes, thank you."

"Did you have a good time?"

"Yes." Sam moves closer as if to kiss her making her close her eyes nervously but he instead opens the door. Just when she breathes in relief, he kisses her passionately and she has to back off of him slowly until he lets her go.

Mercedes goes into her room with a daze look on in her eyes, she touches her lips and smiles but its interrupted by Finn walking in through the terrace.

"What the hell are you doing here? Leave." She whispers looking at the room door.

"Why; is he coming back?"

"No."

"Then what are you so worried about."

"Leave Please."

"I haven't being able to talk to you all day and we have to make plans for tomorrow."

"Tomorrow, what's happening tomorrow?" She asked alarmed.

"Since that asshole has security all around the premises, tomorrow we are leaving while at the party."

"But I don't want to leave, I mean I can't."

"Why can't you?

"Because he already agree to a divorce."

"How can you believe in his lies?"

"He's not lying, I believe him."

He grabbed her forcefully by her arm hurting her. "You know I'm getting tire of this, I'm won't allow him to win this battle. He can stay with his rotten money, but not with you. If you don't agree then tomorrow I will tell the police what kind of business your father is involve in."

"And I will tell them that…

"I don't care what you tell them. You got no proof, while I do have the means of burying your father along with his so called friend. So you decide." He let her go roughly leaving a distraught Mercedes.

In the morning Mercedes told Tina Finn's plans and she did not take it very well.

"Are you crazy, don't you see that Sam is crazy about you." Screamed Tina crying.

"Lower voice, Finn threaten to tell the police about dad being a drug trafficker."

"But it's not true, you don't believe that."

"I know. Maybe he's partner it's responsible, but whether it was out of desperation or foolishness, I can't let dad go to jail."

"I don't think Finn will really do it. It's also not fair that we have to give up all of this." Cried Tina angrily.

"Don't you even dare say it. Tina please, he's our father. He adopted us, took care of us, kept a roof over our heads, kept us fed and clothed. We can't turn our back on him now."

"I'm not saying that. You have to tell Sam…"

"If I tell Sam, then a fight will break out and by tonight dad could be in jail."

"But we can't abandon all of this."

"I'm sorry sis. We have to leave the country."

In the morning Carole, Mercedes and Tina arrived at Kurt's store.

"Well hello divas." Greeted Kurt.

"Hi Kurt, you remember Mercedes. This is her sister Tina, she was at the house when you help her find a dress for her dinner."

"Yes, I remember, welcome to my salon and boutique, anything you need just say the word."

"Thanks."

"Mrs. Evans loving the outfit."

"Which Mrs. Evans." Asks Tina.

"Obviously Mercedes because without Kurt I would be a mess."

"Nah you're just being nice."

"Diva I told you I love your style. I'm telling you marrying Sam is the best thing you could have done. He took you out of that small Lima loser town and brought to the big city where your sense of style can shine."

"Well I don't have much to work with, so I make do with what I have."

"And you have more style than this rich spoil brats that think they're all that. Carole can testify to that."

"Absolutely. They don't hold a candle to you." Commented Carole.

"Can you pick me something like you did for Mercedes?" asked Tina.

"Oh child, that was all Mercedes. I just showed her the dresses, she picked it all on her own. I was amaze by her knowledge of fashion. The fabrics, the textures, the colors. She's got a great eye for fashion. But anyway, Mercedes I already picked up some dresses base on your tastes. So have a look and tell me what you think, you know I'm here to help."

"Thanks."

"Carole I have some for you as well."

"Oh no, I'm not attending the party."

"Well that's a shame. You should be having fun instead of lounging around at home."

"I'm going to an art gallery so don't worry, and I already picked an outfit."

"Good, Tina work with me, tell me what you like…

"I want something short and sexy, something that can show off my legs and gives me a little cleavage."

"We can work with that."

After hours shopping, they went to the salon part of the locale to do their hair and makeup.

After they arrived home Mercedes and Tina went to their respective rooms to get ready. Caroled was fixing a bouquet of flowers she had bough on the way home when Sam walked in.

"Hey son."

"Hey, how was the shopping trip?"

"Tina looked a like a little girl on Christmas morning." Said Caroled amused.

"And Mercedes."

"I don't know, I can tell she likes fashion, but she looked sad, she was mostly quiet, distracted. Something's wrong with that girl."

"I don't know what to tell you, she seemed fine last night."

"And she still sleeping in the guess room and you in your bedroom."

"It's… its… just that my ribs still bother me."

Carole didn't buy his excuse. "Stop giving me childish excuses. Do you still not remember? Or you remember but won't tell me."

"Sorry mom, I have to make some calls." He said changing the subject before leaving.

Carole decided to go upstairs and talk to her daughter in law.

Mercedes was almost ready to go. She grabbed her purse to transfer her ID and money to the one she was taking to the party, but when she open her purse the money was gone. She looked through the other pockets, still empty.

Tina walks him dress very elegantly.

"Can I borough your lipstick."

"You took the money that was here, that's why you had so many bags when you came from the mall yesterday."

"Are you crazy, it was probably stolen by one of the servants."

"That's not true, it was you." Someone knocked on the door. "And now we have nothing." Says Mercedes walking to the door.

Mercedes opens the door to Carole. "Mercedes Sam its waiting for you." Mercedes nods and goes back into the room.

"I'm ready, I just need to get my purse." Tina walks to her room.

Carole turns to Mercedes as she comes back with a jacket on her arm and her purse.

"You look amazing sweetie."

"Thank you."

Carole takes a hold of Mercedes hand as they walk together.

"Mercedes, if you're having problems with Sam, I want you to know that you can talk to me. You can trust me."

"Thank your Mrs. Evans." Said Mercedes squeezing Carole's hand. Carole is left pensive. That thank you seem final and full of gratitude for more than just offering an ear to listen.

They leave for the party as soon as Tina comes down the stairs. Sam can't stop looking at Mercedes, who keeps blushing at his obvious staring. She looks like a goddess in a strapless red dress that hugs her curves in all the right places. He can't resist kissing her shoulder and her neck making her shiver. Mercedes tilts her head towards Tina and he controls himself.

When they arrived to the party immediately someone approaches them to greet Sam and he shakes his hand and introduces Mercedes. "This my wife Mercedes Evans."

"Nice to meet you." She's tense at first but as time passes she's more at ease. For someone who constantly tells him how inadequate she feels, she fits right in. Sam it's impressed with Mercedes as the party goes on, he's in awe of her. How she manages to win over just about everyone they meet with her charm and her wit. She treats everyone as equals and won't let anyone treat her as anything less. She was having fun and he was so glad of that. She needs to smile more often that's for sure. God he loves her smile. Her smile it's contagious and he can't help but smile with her.

Finn it's also at the party flirting with anything in a skirt. He sees Quinn and approaches her pulling Rachel away making his intention clear he wants to talk to Quinn alone. Quinn looks less than happy.

"They haven't been apart all night."

"That's why I want you to distract him, take him away from her."

He leaves and Quinn approaches Sam and Mercedes.

"I'm glad you're having fun." He kisses her. And may I say you look amazing. You're the envy of every woman here."

"Finally I can say hi to you."

Sam turns to Quinn. "Hi Quinn. You look great" She pulls him for a hug and kisses his cheek almost on his lips lingering a little too long.. Mercedes feels uncomfortable but tries to hide it.

"Thank you." She turns to Mercedes. "Mercedes nice to see you again. You look amazing."

"Thanks, you too."

"Sam I need your advice."

"About what."

"About some investments."

"We can talk at the office."

"NO, it really can't wait, it's urgent, Mercedes can I borough your husband for a moment. It won't be for too long."

"Sure." Replied Mercedes uneasy. Quinn pulled Sam with her. Marley approach with two drinks. "Mercedes come with me, I have some friends that really want to meet you." Mercedes took the drink and followed her.

"Come on let's get to some place quieter." Says Quinn pulling Sam who didn't look happy but still walked with her.

"Why?"

"So we won't get interrupted." Sam looked toward Mercedes, and Quinn rolled her eyes annoyed.

"Nothing is going to happen to your wife."

"Speaking about my wife. Never kiss me like that again."

"I've always done it." She shrugged her shoulders.

"But I don't want you to anymore, much less in front of her." He walks and she follows.

"So what was it that you wanted to talk to me about."

"It's about a house my parents left me. I don't know whether to invest in it or sell the property. Its rented for $10.000 now but I'm seriously thinking of selling."

"I think you shouldn't sell. It's giving you good money in rent."

"Yeah but to keep it it's a pain. Something always has to be fix."

"Why not ask the current tenants to move temporarily, fix all the problems with the house once and for all and then rent it again, can be for the same price or higher to cover for the investment."

Finn who has been checking on Mercedes all night, waited for Sam to be gone long enough to make his move. He approached Mercedes that was talking with Marley. "Marley, would you excuse us." Finn did not wait for Marley to answer to pull Mercedes away.

"Your dad, it's almost here"

"Finn I thought about it and I don't want to leave."

"You have to understand, the further away you're from Sam, the better."

"No, I can't go, how we are going to live."

"I can support you."

"NO."

"Why not, you let Sam do it, why not me. Go get your sister."

"Sam its coming back for me."

"Don't worry, Quinn's keeping him very entertain?" Mercedes tense at his implication.

Mercedes leaves Finn and sees her sister hanging out with some people, but doesn't go to get her. Instead she starts looking for Sam. After a few minutes she finds them in a secluded area, his back to her. They were out of earshot but she could see them clearly. They were too close for her liking.

"How could you do this to me, I though you loved me. You could at least have told me. Just a few days before you got married we were together?" Quinn grabbed his face bringing it closer to her. "I love you, I'm in love with you."

Sam didn't pull away, and Mercedes felt her heart breaking.

"Quinn I care about you too, but…

"But you love her more." Said Quinn upset.

"No, its not that."

"They why did you get married?" Sam didn't answered. "Did you have to do it? Asked Quinn. "Is she having your child?"

"No, Mercedes and I… have an agreement that may end very soon."

"You're divorcing." Quinn smiled.

"Probably yes."

"When." Quinn can't stop smiling.

"I don't know, it all depends."

"On what." Says Quinn exited.

"Quinn, I'm sorry, those are personal things that I can't share with you."

Quinn nodded and kissed him on the cheek once again and hugged him tight, he didn't resist.

"Then can we see each other every once in a while, like before. I miss you." She kissed him again, caressing the back the nape of his neck.

Watching them Mercedes felt like crying, but wouldn't let the tears fall.

Next thing she knows she's being pull away by Finn towards Tina whom he had already gotten.

"Finn no, I don't want to do things this way."

"Your dad is waiting for us in the car, or you come with me or I call the police right now." He says taking out his phone.

"No, no."

Mercedes hesitates, not wanting to leave with him.

"Then I'll take him to the police myself." He makes to leave but it's stopped by Mercedes.

"No wait, I'll come with you." Mercedes grabs Tina and they leave with Finn.
