WARNINGS: Alcohal use, excessive drinking, creepy guy, fighting

For the fight scene, I need y'all to watch this video and pay attention to the last move where Oscar swings his legs around the guy, THATS what I'm talking about in the upcoming scene

Bold is Steven's thoughts

Italics is Marc

Red is Jake.

ENJOOOOYYYY

What’s the plan, Steven?

“What are you talking about? I already met them.”

Yes, and now you need to win them over

“Sam doesn’t want me to ‘win over’ anyone, she wants me to be myself”

 Elena likes you but Jess is warey.

“What? Since when?”

Don’t over think it. She’s just protective.

“Like when you were met Sam?” Steven teased.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sure. Just be yourself and she’ll warm up to you.

“I’ve been dating her longer than you, I think I can handle it.” Steven approached Sam’s door and knocked

Jessica opened the door “Hi Steven, Elena is finishing up Sam’s make-up in the bathroom.” She let him in and motioned for him to take a seat, smiling lightly, but not enthusiastically. 

Steven squirmed. “Hey Jessica” He sat as instructed “You look nice…” Don’t be creepy I’m being polite, she does look nice! Don’t compliment her friends, dumbass You Americans always take compliments as flirting, fuck off.  I can’t stand you two. Shut up Shut up

“Thanks Steven, so do you.”

See? “Thank you.”

Silence. Ok loverboy, whats the grand plan now? Since when are you involved? I’m bored. Let him be Marc, maybe he can be helpful. Well? You gonna be helpful? Probably not.

“Always thinking…” Jessica comments, snapping Steven out of it

“Pardon me?” Steven looked up at where Jessica was standing.

She was studying him, leaned against Sam’s counter. “You’re always a bit in your head, aren’t you? It’s like you’re always trying to sort something out. You’re eyes always always seem to dart around… Like you’re having a conversation with yourself.”

Oh god Good luck

Steven gave a nervous smile “I supposed I am a bit in my head, yeah?” He paused as she continued to look at him “You aren’t too fond of me, are you?” Why would you say that? He’s being direct, that’s kinda his thing.

Jessica’s expressions softened “It’s not personal. I just worry about her.”

“I do too.”

“I know you do. But it’s just my job to watch out. Sam is an idealist, as I’m sure you know. She see’s the best in people. Her naivety has brought danger and makes people target her. They think she’s easy to take advantage of, one way or another. I’m not saying you would-”

Steven stood up “No, but I understand what you’re saying. You don’t have to like me but I’m glad she has someone else looking out for her. Someone has to, because it isn’t her.”

“And what about you?”

Steven smiled again “I try my best, but it’s always helpful to have a team. I think she needs it.”

Jessica smiled at him, stepping closer. “You’re sincere. I like that about you.”

Before Steven could respond, Sam exited the bathroom with a squeal.

Jess leaned in “They did pregame shots.”

Steven matched her lean, but kept his eyes on Sam “Not you?”

“Someone has to watch the drinks.”

Sam looked beautiful as always. Her dress was red and velvet long sleeves, it was short with a little flare at the end and she wore her thick wool legging. Her auburn hair was curled, not by her natural curl but he assumed by Elena.

“Sam, love you look stunning” Steven went in for a kiss but she pulled away.

“Aht! No messing up my lip stick!” Her lipstick was a deep red and glossy to match the dress.

Steven held her head, careful to only touch in her hair so he didn’t mess up the contour and blush, he tilted her and kissed her forehead. “Better?”

“Much better” She went in to kiss him, then caught herself, settling to pat Steven on the head “Good boy” She giggled.

Elena grabbed onto Sam, pulling her away “Alright, that’s enough. Hi Steven.” Elena went to pour more shots “Jessica, you are taking one of these” She pulled out a bottle of tequila rose.

“No way, I’m the designated adult”

Sam whined “You’re always the designated adult”

“Because you have a drinking problem and Elena gets drunk off of one mixed drink!”

“I don’t have a drinking problem…” Sam muttered, but smiled as she poured her shot to the brim.

Steven interjected “Jess, I can be the ‘designated adult’, you have fun with them.”

“No way” Jess held up her hand “You only get two drinks the entire night. That’s the rule. You gotta watch the drinks and watch out for everyone. I’m used to it, you enjoy yourself. I know you havn’t seen Sam in forever.”

“I’LL BE THE ADULT!” Sam shouted after she finished the shot.

“Sam, that’s your 3rd drink, you’re already disqualified.” But Jess was smiling at Sam with nothing but love. She turned to Steven “I have this job down to a science. It’s okay, they are my girls.”

Steven grabbed the 3rd shot Elena had poured and handed it to Jess “Take it. I wasn’t planning on drinking much anyway” This was true. When Elena had called Steven that night he had to find her, she had said she’ll wonder off with anyone while drunk. He intended to keep an eye on her. “Go have a girls night. I’ll watch out for you guys, I promise.”

Jess looked hesitant, but grabbed the shot “Okay, but I’m not getting super drunk so if anything goes wrong, we’ll both deal with them. Jess took the shot and grabbed Elena’s arm “Come on love, out we go.”

Steven took Sam’s hand and followed Jessica’s lead.

Jess lied. She got drunk. Very drunk. All three did. Steven did as he promised and kept an eye on all the drinks, and made sure to keep track of Elena and Jess’s whereabouts in addition to Sam. As he watched Sam dance with her friends to some One Direction, he was relieved to find how happy she was. Carefree, joyful. It was her usual self but amplified and without the burdun of anything besides buying another drink. He watched her when men approached, she’s talk and be friendly of course, that was her nature. Anyone might mistake it for flirting. But Steven knew when she was flirting. Her flirting was obvious. This? This was her just in love with the high of life. Sam loved people. Despite everything, she loved meeting new people and making new friends. Even after Jordan, she still made friends with anyone. He loved that no matter what, it seemed no one could take that youthful exuberance, the lust for life and that shine in her eyes.

So.  Jake started

What? 

When are you guys gonna deal with her drinking problem

Oh shut up, I’ve seen drinking problems, getting drunk every few weekends isn’t a drinking problem.

What do you mean Jake

Start paying attention to how often she drinks. Especially when she’s upset. And I’m not the only one, Jessica thinks so too.

Jake, Steven and her have been dating for 2 months. I don’t think it’s exactly enough time for us to be judging her drinking habits.

Fine, but when she’s in the hospital for alcohol poisoning, don’t come crying to me.

Jesus christ, Jake.

Steven considered his words, however. He had a point. She did seem to drink a lot. But there was no time to consider this further, he looked over to Elena and immediately stood up. She was on the dance floor, and some guy had come up behind her, trying to dance with her but when she tried to step away, he wrapped an arm around her waist. As Steven made his way over, Elena tried to get free, but her petite frame was nothing against the man’s grip.

“Hey! Let her go.” Steven called out, getting Jess and Sam’s attention.

The man took his arm off her waist, but his hand gripped Elena’s arm, keeping her with him. He then stepped up to posture at Steven. “Got a problem Mate?”

Sam had yanked the mans grip from her friend and gently pushed Elena away, into Jess’s arms.

The man was significantly taller than Steven, and although Sam was about Steven’s height she still felt defensive of him. Sam stepped between the two of them, facing the man “Back off!” She shouted, then felt a hand on her arm. Steven, give me the body. You aren’t the only one who can fight

“Sam, go with Jess, I got this.” You can’t summon the suit here, you gotta fight without it.

Sam didn’t listen.  I’m not trying to get in a fight If I have to take over, you aren’t going to like it. Get Sam away Steven

The large man looked at Sam, slightly confused. “Are you his bodyguard?” He teased.

She cocked her head “Maybe I am, what are you gonna do about it?”

Before Steven could do anything, the man shoved Sam to the side, knocking her over and punching Steven in the gut Takethebodytakethebody Marc thebodytakethebody oh my godtakethebody

That’s what I thought. Marc took over, dodging the next punch and decking the man in the face.

Sam wanted to yell at them, try to stop them, but she didn’t want to distract Marc. She knew it was Marc as soon as his face set into that determined look he had. 

Marc was in his fighting stance, she had never seen him fight before, it was much different from Steven. When Steven saved her all those weeks ago, Steven was direct, simply trying to stop the man. Marc was a bit different. Marc was a fighter.

He stood crouched a bit, light on his feet as he practically danced around the burly subject. He dodged almost every hit. Sam stifled a scream as she saw Marc take a hit to the mouth, but it didn’t look hard. Jessica had helped her stand up.

Faking a British accent the best he could, Marc asked “Are you done yet?” Marc had landed a particularly hard punch near the man’s eye, causing him to stumble back. To Sam’s horror, the man pulled out a knife. This time Sam did scream, causing Marc to glance over, fists open and loose to check she was okay. 

Sam took a step to go to Marc, but Marc needed her to stay out of this. “Jess!” He called, hoping she wouldn’t notice the accent change.

Marc…  I got it

Jess grabbed Sam to prevent her from going to Marc. The man changed Marc, but Marc was quick. He grabbed the hand holding the knife, swung his legs around him, landed on the floor with the knife extended and in Marc’s control, and Marc’s legs wrapped around the man’s throat.

Finally, the bouncers came, taking the knife and removing Marc “Get out! Your banned!”

“HE PULLED A KNIFE ON ME!” He forgot to mask his accent.

“Steven, lets go” 

Marc glanced over to see Sam. She was holding his arms, smiling gently. Jess and Elena look scared shitless. Great. They were gonna hate him now. He let Steven take the body back.

Steven was panicking as they were ushered out of the club, Jess was going to chew his ass… Sam held his arm the whole time.

But when they got outside, he was surprised to find Elena pulling him into a tight hug “My hero!”

He looked at Jess “That was pretty impressive, Steven. Where did you learn all that?”

Steven was relieved to see that Jess wasn't mad, but looked impressed.

Sam piped up “Steven took martial arts all throughout high school!” She lied.

Steven ordered an Uber. He intended on riding with and getting the girls home safe, but Jess insisted it was fine, she had Elena and it would be the opposite direction Steven and Sam needed to go. Elena thanked Steven for helping her, and Jess thanked him as well. Steven didn’t need the thanks, but it did make him feel good.

Sam and Steven opted to walk home “Think they noticed the accent switch?” He asked

“If they say something, I’ll just say they were drunk.”

Steven laughed “You just going to gaslight your friends to keep my little secret?”

“Yes, yes I will.” She gasped excitedly “A KARAOKE BAR!!” She shouted. “Can we please? Just for a bit?!”

Steven was tired and his lip hurt, but she just looked so excited. Just say yes, how can we say no to that face?

“Your wish is my command”

“My wish is that you sing” She began pulling him inside.

“Maybe not that…” He mumbled.

Sam sighed up immediately. They ordered a round, Steven feeling he could let down his guard just a bit.

“You doing Stevie Nicks? You always sing her so pretty, love” Steven loves waking up to her singing when she cooked him breakfast in the mornings, singing her favorites

“Thank you Sweetheart. But I decided to switch it up.” She sipped her cranberry vodka.

When it was Sam’s turn, she got on the stage looking nervous. “Steven Marc, this is for you” She said their name as if it was one for the crowd.

She sang Bruce Springsteen’s “Born to Run.”

“Wendy let me in, I wanna be your friend, I wanna guard your dreams and visions”

Steven was in aw. It wasn’t that Sam was good. She wasn’t bad, she was better than average. That wasn’t really the thing that got him.

“We'll run till we drop, and baby we'll never go back

Will you walk with me out on the wire

'Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider”

It was the way she smiled broadly, the way she put herself out there, the way she was always ready for the next adventure.

“I wanna die with you Wendy on the street tonight

In an everlasting kiss”

Marc thought that sounded like heaven, the perfect way to die. Second only to suffocating between her legs.

“Tramps like us, baby, we were born to run”

Steven and Marc gave a standing ovation to which a few people in the bar joined in. Marc ran to catch Sam in his arms, spinning her “Baby you were great” He almost kissed her but pulled back “Am I clear for kisses now?” Sam grabbed his shirt collar and pulled him in.

Steven watched as she sang a few more songs between other bar patrons: Love is a Battlefield, Life after Love, and Boys of Summer, all of which she killed. But Steven wanted to hear her sing Stevie.

“Steven, you’re up next” The DJ called.

Sam turned to Steven, surprised by smiling “When did you sign up?”

Standing up, Steven took her hand “ While you were busy working the crowd during Boys of Summer. Don Henly gave me an idea.” He led her up to the front of the small stage and stepped up.

“How does Marc feel” Sam giggled.

Steven winked “He’ll be less annoyed in a few minutes” 

Sam immediately grinned when the intro to “Leather and Lace” came on.

“Sing with me, my love?”

He held out a hand and assisted her in stepping up onto the stage. He stepped a bit aside to allow her the spotlight.

Stevie Nicks' part came first.

“Is love so fragile? And the heart so hollow? Shattered with words, impossible to follow.” 

Sam looked at him adoringly. Gone was her previous performance, she only had eyes for Steven and Marc, trying to convey the love she felt.

“Still I carry this feeling when you walked into my house, that you won't be walking out the door.”

Steven harmonized along to the chorus with Sam

“Lovers forever, face to face. My city, your mountain, stay with me, stay. I need you to love me, I need you today.”

Would you like to take this one mate? Singing isn’t really my thing buddy I think she’d really like it.

Marc took over just in time to take over Don Henley's part of the song. Sam covered her mouth in shock, her eyes tearing up at the thought that Marc would push apart everything about himself to sing to her.

“You in the moonlight, with your sleepy eyes, could you ever love a man like me?”

She did, good god did she love him. She loved him with everything in her.

“I knew with you to light my nights, somehow I would get by”

Steven took the body back to sing the chorus, taking her hand in his.

“Give to me your leather, take from me my lace.”

The song ended to applause from the crowd. A few couples had scooted closer to each others, holding hands and cuddling.

“Steven, Marc, that was beautiful. I’m gonna remember tonight for the rest of my life.”

She felt his face with her hand, giving him a kiss which Marc quickly deepened, sucking on her lip and giving it a bite before it broke.

“I can’t believe you did karaoke, you sing so beautifully, both of you.” and short pause as Sam considered. “How many drinks do you think it’ll take to get Jake up there”

Marc laughed “Somehow, I don’t think there's enough tequila in this bar for that.

4 shots later, Jake Lockely was on the stage singing “No Me Doy Por Vencido” By Luis Fonsi.

Sam sat with her mouth a gap. She only had heard Jake say a few words in Spanish, most of them Carina. 

She was stunned as she watched him belt out “Pase lo que pase seguiré” with his whole heart.

Jake walked with Sam home, the tequila allowing him to talk more freely than he ever did, even giving the occasional smile and sliding his coat over her to protect from the cold.

Sam wondered if Jake was flirting, but something about his kindness just didn’t feel romantic. She couldn’t get a read on him.

He changed in the bathroom, getting into his Pj’s. Sam knew this was more about giving her privacy to change, but couldn’t help but laugh. It was the same body she had seen a hundred times, but he still hid it. She supposed that was his prerogative. He had to share so much, he might as well feel like something was his.

“Marc and Steven fell asleep, sorry”

He moved to go to the couch, as he always did.

“Jake?”

Jake didn’t turn around, he went to the sink and drank a glass of water, then got a second one “I’m not sleeping on the bed, Muñeca, you don’t have to offer it to me every time.”

“It’s just…”

Jake brought the second glass over to her “Drink”

“I’m not thirsty”

“You will be in the morning. How do you have a drinking problem and you don’t know how to d damage control on a hangover”

“I don’t- ugh. I’m not doing this. Fine” Sam drank the glass.

Jake went to the sink and drank another glass.

“Don’t make me drink another” Sam whined.

Chuckling, Jake replied “I won’t. Just making sure they are fine in the morning.”

Sam shifted in the bed as he went to the couch. 

“Jake… Please? Their neck always hurts when you sleep on the couch.”

Jake turned to her. Her expression was genuine concern.

“I want you to be comfortable too of course, and I know that being in bed with me makes you feel uncomfortable but just… consider it? Or try sleeping differently? Or I can sleep on the couch it doesn’t bother me-”

“Stop” Jake thought for a minute “Fine. Only because it hurts their neck. And if they yell at me for sleeping next you, I’ll telling them to blame you.”

Sam smiled, relieved that Jake was feeling comfortable around her and that Marc and Steven wouldn’t have a sore neck for their dates tomorrow. “It’ll be ok. Thank you Jake.”

“What are you thanking me for?” he settled into the bed. 

“Watching out for them”
