A/N: This is going to be a series of drabbles. Each chapter will be a different character's thoughts on Mr. Schue. I don't own Glee.
A Great Man
Chapter 1-Finn
Before Glee, my life was a monotonous, dull routine.
But, I didn't really know what I was missing.
School. Football. Video Games. Food. Friends. Girlfriend. Popularity. Video Games.
And, repeat.
That was my life.
I was content, but I wasn't truly happy.
I didn't understand why. I had the girl, the friends, the game.
What was missing?
One day, during math, I got called into Mr. Schue's office.
He found drugs in my locker.
I was so confused. Where did those come from? Did Puck put them there?
Yeah, he probably did. Ugh! Puck was so gonna get it when I saw him next!
I pleaded with him not to tell my mom. I didn't want her to be ashamed of me.
I did the only thing I could do to keep him quiet.
I joined New Directions.
And, it was the best decision I ever made.
In glee, I found friends who liked me for my personality not my reputation.
I got a family.
I discovered my hidden talents.
I discovered my hidden not-talents.
But, most of all, I found the father I never had.
I don't remember my dad. I was really little when he died.
But, I know if he was anything like Mr. Schue, I would've loved him.
Mr. Schue told me I was good, no matter what other people said.
He said I was funny and talented.
He told me I could make something of my self.
When, I found out Quinn was pregnant, he let me cry on his shoulder.
He let me cry on his shoulder again when I found out it wasn't my baby.
And, again when I found out Quinn was putting it up for adoption.
He helped me when my best friend betrayed me.
When Rachel and I had problems, he let me vent.
He was not just my teacher.
He was my mentor, my role model, my hero.
My dad.
While it wasn't the normal relationship to have with a teacher, I wouldn't trade it for the world.
