[accidental video; back-dated to valentine's day]

[whitechocolate]

[Sam is being recorded returning to the Hudson-Hummel residence after Sugar's Valentine's Day party. Finn and Kurt are busy with their Valentines which means he's alone. He dumps himself on the couch with a sigh. He hadn't really wanted to go to the party but he had a song performance he needed to follow through with, and whilst surrounded by couples he reminds himself of those poignant lyrics from that famous song - smile though your heart is aching, smile even though it's breaking - but now he's alone he doesn't have to put on a brave face.

He suddenly misses his family more than anything, but they're about four hours away by car. He misses his sister telling him not to cry when he's sad and he kind of really wants a hug from his mom... And that's when Carole, the mother of the friends he's staying with, enters the living room and asks how his night was. Sam forces a watery smile at her and he doesn't have to say anything, a mother just knows. She pulls him into a much-needed hug and he sniffles into her shoulder.

After the hug and a skype call home to his family later, he's feeling better, appearing in a new video that isn't accidental.]

Was it just me or did anyone else have a sucky Valentine's day?

Cupid isn't even a real fairy.

[whitechocolate]

Cupid sucks and needs to wear more clothes. You're way more awesome.

[broadwaybound]

... can I do anything to help?

[whitechocolate]

Uh... depends what you want to help me with. I think it's too hopeless to help me with Mercedes at this point... We've kind of hit a dead end.

[pettedasnake]

It was good and bad.

You look like you need a hug.

[whitechocolate]

Hopefully the good parts made up for the bad stuff?

I wouldn't turn down a hug from you.

[Oh Sam...must you be so Woobie?]

Sam?

What has happened?

[Video]

[whitechocolate]

[Woobie is his middle name.]

Oh, uh... nothing life-threatening or anything like that. I've kind of just been on an emotional roller coaster with this girl lately... Wait, you probably don't know what a roller coaster is, forget that analogy.

Love sucks, basically.

[6collegecredits]

I don't know. Mine wasn't so bad.

Looks like you had a rough time, though.

[whitechocolate]

How'd you spend yours?

You'd probably think I was being melodramatic if you knew the whole story... Stupid high school romance drama, you know?

[swordplay]

I don't know. We don't celebrate it here so it was just like any other day.

What happened?

[whitechocolate]

Oh... I kind of wish that was the case here. It sucks being by yourself during this holiday.

Long story short, I heard everything I wanted to hear from this girl... except the part where she said couldn't be with me. And it hurts. A lot.

[lebanese]

Mine got off to a pretty rocky start, yeah.

[whitechocolate]

Brittany looked like she enjoyed her singing telegram though.

[deadlydoctor]

[Have a transformer, Sam.] I love how humans enjoy coming up with things that only make yourselves more miserable.

[ video ] watch the mun pretend she knows anything about transformers XD

[whitechocolate]

[Woah. You've officially put a smile on his face.] ...oh my god. [Don't hyperventilate, Sam. Deep breaths.]

[Action...?]

[notasinglelady]

[Kurt saw the post and he know how Sam was feeling. He felt like that a year ago. He will gently knock on the door or the room where he's staying.]

[Action]

[whitechocolate]

Come in. [He closes the laptop when Kurt enters, sitting up on the bed.] Hey Kurt, did you have fun with Blaine?

[whisperingsaint]

You all right? I guess things with your girl didn't go quite as planned...

[whitechocolate]

Well, part of the plan was to get her to dump her boyfriend and she did, and she told me she loved me and sang that she always would...

That's funny, it sounds like there should be a happy ending to this but there isn't one.

[fuckingnarnia]

Valentine's Day is a shitty holiday. [Answer: yes]

[whitechocolate]

I don't think it is if you have someone.

[formercheerio]

Mine didn't exist. It didn't suck, though.

[whitechocolate]

It's good to have you on the God Squad, Quinn.

[antibadstuff]

Sucky just about covers it.

[whitechocolate]

Do you mean literally blood sucky?

[daretotry]

[ Finn's reply comes quite a bit later, after he gets home, since he was out all evening with Rachel and Jesse ]

Mom's hugs are kinda awesome, huh? Sorry your day sucked.

[whitechocolate]

Yeah... your mom makes a good substitute mom. And it's okay. I think I'm used to this day sucking by now.
