Young Love
Will Schuester was a sophomore at McKinley High School in Lima, Ohio. Will was a popular jock who played on the football team but he had a talent that he didn't want to share and that was singing. To Will singing was for girls or for guys who were gay, he thought he would loose his popularity if his friends found out. Will loved to sing he would sing in the shower or in the car but never in front of his friends. One day Will was walking down the hallways of McKinley and heard a beautiful voice coming from the choir room, Will walked over to the room to see who was singing. As he approached the door he saw a unfamiliar red head singing, Will was mesmerized by her beauty. Will had never seen a girl as beautiful as she was and Will just stood there watching her even when she did stop singing. Will had never seen her here at the school before but he wanted to meet her and know who she was, so he waited.
The door to the choir room opened and he walked up to her. "I heard you singing in there, your really good" Will smiled shyly.
"Thank you very much"
"Are you new here? I've never seem you here before?"
"Yeah today is my first day, my dad got transferred from Virginia. If we had it our way we would of waited till the start of a new semester. Its hard to start at a new school almost 3 weeks into the first semester."
"Well my name is Will Schuester and I would love to help you out if you need a friend."
"My name is Emma Pillsbury and that would be really great thank you." Emma smiled.
"Sounds great" Will said as they began walking outside.
As they stepped outside the school Emma saw her mom waiting for her in the car. "Well my mom is here to take me home. So I guess I will see you in school tomorrow" Emma smiled.
"Ok see you tomorrow! Have a great rest of your night Emma." Will said as he opened the car door for her and then closed it and waved to her.
Emma was speechless; she never felt this way around a guy and her mother noticed. "Ah young love"
"What was that mom?"
"Young love, I know it when I see it"
"Mom I just met him, this isn't love"
"It isn't now but it will be as time passes, I can see it in your eyes and his. You won't admit it now but you definitely like him and so does he and can I just say he is a very handsome young man"
"I know he is so good looking" Emma said blushing not realizing she said that out loud and her mother gave her that 'I told you so' look.
"Well darling I definitely think you are going to end up liking it here in Lima"
"Oh yeah I think I'm going to love it here"
The next day Emma saw Will and ended up having lunch together. Will and Emma laughed and talked the whole hour, they were both enjoying the time they spent together. As they packed up there lunches Will became fidgety like he had something important to say.
"Is something wrong?"
"Oh well I did have something I needed to ask you…I, I know it's kind of soon to be asking you this…but homecoming is in a few weeks and I wanted to…well you see I really like talking to you…and you know I wanted to see if you…you know want to go to the dance with me?" Will said nervously thinking she would say no because it was too soon.
"You want to take me...to the school dance?" Emma said as Will nodded looking down in his lap, too scared to look her in the eyes. "I would be honored to go to homecoming with you Will." Emma smiled and all of a sudden Will perked up happy and excited that she said yes.
"Really? You really want to go with me!"
"Of course I would love to go with you, why wouldn't I?"
"Well I don't know I figured since you just met me yesterday, you might of thought it was too soon"
"Will it's a school dance, it's not like you just proposed marriage to me" Emma giggled.
"I know I was just nervous asking you cause I really do like you Emma, I know I have only known you for a day but I want to get to know you more"
"I like you also Will and I would love to get to know more of you"
"Would you maybe like to on Friday…go on a…a"
"Date?" Emma giggled
"Yeah" Will blushed "I'm sorry I seem so nervous around you I promise I'm not always like this"
"I understand Will" Emma smiled resting her hand on top of his "I would love to go out with you on Friday" Emma smiled as she grabbed her bag and she kissed his cheek and left leaving a stunned Will in his seat. Will felt on top of the world, Emma said yes to a date and a date to the school dance in a few weeks, Will couldn't be any happier then he was right now.
At the end of the day Emma ran out to her mom's car "Mom he asked me out for Friday night and he asked me to the school dance in a few weeks!" Emma said happily.
"Oh Emma! I'm so thrilled to hear that! This is your first school dance with a boy, I guess this means we have to go dress shopping!"
"Oh no mom, I can wear a dress I alrea-"
"No you will not this is a special occasion and we will be getting you a new dress!"
"Thank you so much mom!" Emma said leaning over the enter console to hug her mom.
"Anything for my little girl, of course your not so little anymore. You are turning into a fine young woman Emma"
"Well I had the best mother teaching me everything I needed to know" Emma laughed.
Later that night at Will's house
"Mom can we talk?" Will asked his mother
"Of course honey. Is something wrong?"
"No everything is great!" Will smiled
"Oh I know this look, it's a girl isn't it?"
"Yes it is. Her name is Emma Pillsbury, she has beautiful red hair, I can't even begin to describe how pretty she is, mom. I heard her singing in the choir room and that's what attracted me to her. I asked her on a date for Friday and she's also my date for homecoming. I have never been so nervous for a date mom, you have no idea, I'm afraid of saying or doing something wrong. I don't want to screw this up cause she is really special."
"Sweetie the only thing I can say to you is to just be yourself. Just be your wonderful self and that's what she will love the most about you."
"Thanks mom" Will said hugging his mother.
"Anytime, I'm happy for you honey"
Will and Emma had lunch everyday and hung out every other day that week after school. Will and Emma didn't know it at the time but they were slowly falling in love. Friday came quickly and Emma was thankful for that, as she was getting nervous for her first date with Will. Will told Emma he was going to take her to some of the attractions in Lima to show her Lima since she was new there. Emma was excited to explore Lima with Will; since Will grew up there he knew everything about the small town.
It was six at night when the doorbell rang and Emma went to answer the door and there Will was standing there in a dress shirt and pants and holding a single red rose "Hi Will, please come on in" Emma said stepping out of the doorway for Will to come in.
"Thank you, and this is for you" Will smiled looking at Emma and handed her the rose "You look really pretty tonight"
"Thank you" Emma blushed at his comment. Emma's mother walked into the hallway. "Oh and this is my mom, mom this is Will"
"Very nice to meet you Mrs. Pillsbury"
"Oh please call me Rose" Rose said shaking Will's hand "So what are you two going to be doing tonight?"
"I thought I would take Emma to the park here in Lima and show her some of the places here"
"Sounds fun, you two have fun and be home by midnight" Rose said
"I will make sure she is home on time" Will smiled as he shook Rose's hand once again and then he opened the door for Emma and they headed out on their first date. "The park is walking distance from here are you ok with walking there?"
"Of course, sounds fun"
Will and Emma talked the whole way to the park and when they got to the park they saw that they had a carnival going on. "Wow that looks like fun! I have never been to a carnival before!"
"Well I guess today will be your first time" Will smiled
Will and Emma walked to the fair and Will played a baseball toss game and won Emma a teddy bear. "Do you like rides?"
"Oh I love them!"
"Great would you like to go on the Ferris wheel"
"Yeah sounds amazing!"
On the ride Will grazed the top of Emma's hand with his and Emma took the hint and gladly accepted and she laced her fingers with his. Will looked over at Emma and smiled at her glad that she was now holding his hand.
By the end of the night Will and Emma went on every ride there and ate food and enjoyed each other's company. Will and Emma were really enjoying her first date and didn't want to see the night end. As they were walking back Will noticed Emma was cold and he took his jacket off and put it over Emma's shoulders.
"Thank you" Emma smiled at Will for his kind gesture. Emma's hand soon returned into Will's hand. They soon arrived back to Emma's house "I had a really fun time tonight, I can't wait to do this again" Emma smiled.
"I'm glad you had fun, I had a lot of fun also" Will wanted to lean in to kiss her but wasn't sure if he should but he didn't need to think much longer as Emma leaned over and kissed Will. The kiss took them to a whole different world of bliss, it was that kind of kiss that Will and Emma would soon never forget. At that moment Will and Emma knew they were meant for each other, yes they weren't going to say it to each other but they were thinking it. Emma said goodbye to Will and walked into her house. Emma closed the front door and leaned up against it trying to regain her balance.
"Hi Emma, how was you date" Rose smiled at the sight of her daughter in love.
"Oh mom it was amazing absolutely amazing. Mom he is just wonderful he is so sweet, kind and so handsome. Oh mom when he kissed me, I was weak in the knees and I forgot about everything around me. I have never felt like this around a guy before its amazing."
"Lets go sit in the living room I made you a little snack so we could talk about your date, I know you wont be going to bed anytime soon" Rose laughed
"No I won't be" Emma laughed "I'm so happy I feel like I might burst in excitement!"
"I can tell honey, and he seemed like a nice boy, hopefully I will be seeing more of him around"
"Oh I hope so! Oh I hope so…is it just me or is it really hot in here?"
Rose laughed "No honey that's all you"
"Mom is this really what love feels like?"
"If you feel on top of the world and can do anything or can't stop thinking of him and when the guy loves you for you and all of you even the bad stuff then yes"
"Mom, I'm in love then"
