The bell rang signaling the end of classes. Santana opened her locker and stared at the mirror that hung on the door and breathed in deep. She couldn't believe how bad the day had been. First coach sue had made her do suicides for the remaining of cheerleading practice for being a half a second late and Quinn had stood there smirking the entire time. Second her and Britney had had a fight during lunch and the blonde refused to talk to her about it.
" I used to think we'd tell the story of us…How we met and sparks flew instantly and people would say ' They're the lucky ones' " Santana sang, her eyes lifting to a picture of her and the other blonde cheerleader. She rolled her eyes and slammed her locker door shut. Turning she held her head high and her books against her chest as she made her way to the choir room. The rest of the group was there but instead of her girlfriend saving her a seat like always Brittany sat beside Mercedes instead.
" I used to know my place was a spot next to you , now im searching for an empty seat, cause lately I don't even know what page your on."
" oh. A simple complication, miscommunication leads to fall out" Rachel sang casting furitive glances at finn from beneath her eye lashes, " So many things that I wish you knew, so many walls up I cant break through"
Santana walked deeper into the room meeting Rachel who had stood up and began walking to the head of the class half way. Together they sang.
" Now im standing alone in a crowded room and were not speaking"
Santana stepped closer to Brittany, " and Im dying to know is it killing you like its killing me yeah"
Rachel put her hands out in front of her and shrugged slightly, " I don't know what to say, since the twist of fate and how it all broke down"
Sharing a glance before looking at their significant others both girls sadly sang," and the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now"
" Next chapter" Finn said while standing up. He watched as Rachel and Santana leaned against the piano talking to Mr Shuester about something.
" How we'd end up this way, nervously pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy" He sang while flattening out his shirt and adjusting his hoodie, as if any of that mattered in the end, " and your doing your best to avoid me" He rolled his eyes at Rachel who was pretending not to be paying any attention to him.
Brittany joined finn her normally blank blue eyes filled with emotion, gone was the act of the dumb cheerleader, " Im starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us, how I was losing my mind when I saw you here, but you held your pride like you should of held me" she sang, her eyes closing with the emotion of the lyric. Everybody knew Santana wasn't easy to get to open up but sometimes it was so hard for Brittany to deal with.
" Oh Im scared to see the ending" Finn sang thoughtfully.
" why are we pretending this is nothing?" Brittany added, her body moving to the rhythm of the song.
Santana looked over her shoulder her eyes almost pleading, " I'd tell you I've missed you but I don't know how" she hung her head and Rachel stepped forward Her hands rising above her head, as she belted, " I've never heard silence quite this loud"
And then they were all four dancing and jumping to the beat of the song. Their voices mingling together brilliantly, finding the correct pitches out of habit.
" Now Im standing alone in a crowded room and we're not speaking and Im dying to know is it killing you like its killing me yeah"
" And I don't know what to say since the twist of fate when it all broke down" Rachel crooned, her eyes scanning the room as if looking for some kind of revelation.
" and the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now" All of them sang their voices much more subdued then they were moments before and neither one willing to meet the others gaze.
The rest of the glee club looked on with wonder as their friends were letting them all in on what should have been a private moment. Kurt and Mercedes were softly singing along rocking in their chairs. Quinn watched with intensity and Puck just nodded his head to the beat. Tina and Mike had their fingers intertwined thankful for how happy they were together.
Santana walked up to Brittany," This is looking like a contest, of who can act like they care less" She sang her voice strong and sultry.
Brittany twirled and was now standing behind Santana, and leaned in as if to whisper the next verse to the latina, " But I liked it better when you were on my side" Santana smiled to herself at the admission.
" the battles in your hands now" Finn sang stepping towards Rachel who looked at him with longing before singing " but I would lay my armour down… if you said you'd rather love then fight"
" So many things you wished I knew" Santana sang with her hand over her heart,
" But the story of us might be ending soon" they chorused together.
" Now im standing alone in an empty room and were not speaking" Brittany sang while she danced.
" and Im dying to know is it killing you like its killing me yeah" Santana added matching Brittanys moves.
" I don't know what to say since the twist of fate when it all broke down" Rachel sang her leg tapping to the rhythm of the music, " But the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now…now now" the girls sang together.
" and were not speaking" Finn shouted.
" and Im dying to know is it killing you like its killing me yeah" Santana took the lead.
" I don't know what to say since the twist of fate cause were going down'' Rachel took it back, staring between her singing companions " and the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now"
When the final note was sung the glee club erupted in applause and it seemed like they all had a comment about the performance. Only the ones who had sang stood quietly staring at each other with absolutely no idea where they should go from there.
TBC….please let me know what you think.
