A/N: Back for another chapter. And cant wait for Samchel duet & kiss tonight. Although I am not sure how I feel about Rachel being rejected again. And has anyone seen the photo of Lea Michele and her ring? Hmmm, well whatever it is I wish her nothing but happiness. And she has a new series in the works called Scream Queens.. And I was so happy to see the Nielsen Ratings Tues night and the Flash was #5. Way to Go Grant Gustin and cast. It was such an awesome episode plus the two from Prison Break reunited: Dominic and Wentworth! Anyways, I'll try to include some Samchel in this chapter in honor of tonight's episode but again Smytheberry is endgame in this story at least. Happy Reading!

Disclaimer: I don't own Glee, characters, or song lyrics.

**********************************

Rachel sat in her room getting ready for her date with Sam. Sebastian hadn't called or texted back. She had literally left a dozens of messages. She knows he was hurt, but so was she. How did they go from making love to not speaking? And what was it with Sam? Maybe Sebastian is right and perhaps she needed to explore something with Sam. She knew one thing is for certain. She loves Sebastian. And she knows he loves her too. Sam is well confused. She didn't want a repeat of Rachel /Finn/Quinn triangle. In tho case it would be Rachel /Sam/Mercedes. She felt something in their kiss, but how can he want to date her but he still loves Mercedes. At least with Sebastian, he knew who he wanted. She was HIS first choice. Guess it wouldn't hurt to have one date with Sam.

Soon, Rachel's door bell rang. She ran down to open the door and gasped to see Sam and how handsome he was. She admits in high school she thought Sam was very attractive. He was one of the sweetest and honest guys she's ever known.

Rachel: Hi Sam! You look handsome.

Sam: Hello Rachel. * hands her a single yellow/red rose* you look amazing! Are you ready?

Rachel: Yes, let me grab my jacket and purse.

Rachel grabbed what she needed, and was shocked to see a horse and carriage in front of her house.

Rachel: Omg Sam, what-

Sam: I wanted to do something special. I know we're friends, but I've always wanted to do tho when we were in New York.

Rachel: You didn't with Mercedes?

Sam: Never got a chance. Plus I want tonight to be kinda special.

Rachel: Awe the rose, carriage ride, and handsome date. Cant be any better.

Sam took her hand and led her into carriage. Sam was doing everything. Rachel thought this was romantic. They came upon the lake, and Sam had a picnic basket.

Rachel: A picnic at the lake under moonlight?

Sam: Yes, ma'am.

Rachel was impressed and can't remember when any guy ever did this for her, not even Sebastian. Okay she was on a romantic date with one of her best friends, yet her mind keeps thinking of Sebastian.

Rachel and Sam continued to chat and feed one another. Sam was enjoying himself and hadn't thought Mercedes at all. He knew he still was competing with Sebastian for Rachel's heart. Right now he just wanted to enjoy this special night with Rachel.

Sam: Are you enjoying yourself, Rach?

Rachel: I am, Sam, thank you. I'm just confused and I don't want to be someone's second choice.

Sam: Second choice?

Rachel: I'm so stupid. I'm sorry. I don't want to ruin this special night.

Sam: Rach, you're not stupid. I am confused too and both of us have feelings for others but you have to admit there is some sparks between us.

Rachel: True. I don't want anyone to get hurt.

Sam: That is one of the things I like about you. You always think of others. Lets just take this one day at a time. No high expectations. Just give us a chance.

Rachel: I will try.

Sam: I wanted to sing something for you.

Somewhere Only We Know"

(Sam)

I walked across an empty land
 I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
 I felt the earth beneath my feet
 Sat by the river and it made me complete

 Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
 I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
 So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
 I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

(Rachel)

 I came across a fallen tree
 I felt the branches of it looking at me
 Is this the place we used to love?
 Is this the place that I’ve been dreaming of?

 Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
 I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
 So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
 I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

(Sam)

 And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
 Talk about it somewhere only we know?
 This could be the end of everything
 So why don’t we go somewhere only we know?
 Somewhere only we know

 (Some - where)

 And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
 Talk about it somewhere only we know?
 This could be the end of everything
 So why don’t we go? So why don’t we go?

(both)

 And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
 Talk about it somewhere only we know?
 This could be the end of everything

(Sam)
 So why don’t we go somewhere only we know?
 Somewhere only we know
 Somewhere only we know

Sam pulled Rachel into his arms and deeply kissed her.Rachel found herself giving into the kiss. His lips were warm and soft. She fit into his arms. But, something kept nagging at her...Sebastian...

Sam pulled away and he looked at her sadly.

Sam: Its not me you want is it?

Rachel: Its not that. I care for you and want this to happen, but I honestly feel if there wasn't Sebastian or Mercedes in the picture, I'd give myself completely. But..my heart belongs with Sebastian. If you want to hate me, I understand.

Sam: I could never hate you. Maybe if things don't work out with Sebastian, we could try again. I feel heartbroken but I get where you're coming from. I care for you a lot, Rachel. I am just upset I took too long.

Rachel: I care for you too. Right now, its just not our time.

Sam: I guess I should get you home.

Rachel: Hey, how about you and I have one of our movie marathon dates like old times? Just us.

Sam: I'd love that. I love you Rach.

Rachel kissed his cheek.

Rachel: Nga yawne lu oer (A/N: I love you in Na'vi)

Sam:Nga yawne lu oer, Rachel.

**************************

Meanwhile, Sebastian sat in his car taking a drive to clear his head. What he wasn't expecting was driving to same spot where his love and her friend were having a picnic. Sebastian fought back the urge to pull Rachel away from Sam. It pained him more to watch the two kiss.

Sebastian you're an idiot, he thought. Go fight for her. Get your heart back.

Sebastian turned up the radio and heard a song come on.

She's My Kind Of Rain" (A/N: Tim McGraw)

(Sebastian)
She's my kind of rain
 Like love in a drunken sky
 She's confetti falling
 Down all night

 She sits quietly there
 Black water in a jar
 Says, Baby why are you
 Trembling like you are

 So I wait
 And I try
 I confess like a child

 She's my kind of rain
 Like love from a drunken sky
 Confetti falling down all night
 She's my kind of rain

 She's the sun set shadows
 She's like Rembrandt's light
 She's the history that's made at night
 She's my lost companion
 She's my dreaming tree
 Together in this brief eternity
 Summer days, winter snows
 She's all things to behold

 She's my kind of rain
 Like love from a drunken sky
 Confetti falling down all night
 She's my kind of rain

 So I wait
 And I try
 I confess all my crimes

 She's my kind of rain
 Like love from a drunken sky
 Confetti falling down all night
 She's my kind of rain

 She's my kind of rain
 Like love from a drunken sky
 Confetti falling down all night
 She's my kind of rain

 She's my kind of rain
 Oh, rain on me
 She's my kind of rain

Sebastian wiped tears and saw that Rachel and Sam were getting ready to leave. So Sebastian hurried to leave hoping that he could leave unnoticed. He was halfway across town, and his heart aches and he knew he had to get Rachel back. He liked Sam, he was a good guy. He just loved Rachel more than anything. Suddenly he got a notification on his phone..he pulled over to check his message he received.

?? Sebastian why were you following me then leave?

Sebastian sighed and responded...

Sebastian: I love you. I miss you. Forgive me?

Rachel: I love you too.
