This fan fiction is about Jeff Sterling the Warbler who is played by the amazing Riker Lynch. This story also has some of Nick Duval / Curt Mega and some of the other Warblers.

If you have anything to say, please review, be it constructive critiscism, something you want to know, inspiration, how good you think it is, or just general things. (P.S. i'm new to this so bare with me).

At the end of this fan fiction, i might write a one shot for the person who has reviewed the most, you can choose a warbler or someone in R5. I might do a Niff one as well.

Disclaimer: I do not own glee, or Jeff and Nick would have way more lines.


Chapter 1

Cara's radio blared out old 90's tunes as she casually drove down the road towards her best friend Nick's school, Dalton Academy. He had invited her up for the weekend, and because she missed him and didn't have anything planned (which was common since Nick left), she agreed. Nick Duval had been Cara Tomlinson's best friend for about 10 years, since she moved from England to Ohio because of her dad's job. For the first few months that they knew each other, she referred to him as literally 'the boy next door' and he referred to her as 'London'. But then eventually, thanks to incredibly pushy parents, and the fact that they were in the same class at school, they made a friendship that could not be broken, and had been best friends ever since.

Unfortunately, Nick had made it into private school, while Cara was neither talented nor rich enough to be able to go. It didn't matter anyway, Dalton was a boy's only school, and Cara certainly didn't feel like shaving her hair off and talking in a low voice for the rest of her years in education, just so she could be at the same school as Nick. Instead, she was sent to McKinley high school in Lima. It was alright, but it still lacked the happiness of school time with Nick.

She pulled up in the small car park at the front of the school, where she noticed Nick leaning against a set of heavy oak doors at the entrance, on his phone. Cara could tell that he wasn't doing anything on it; he just didn't want to look awkward. Eagerly, she got out of the car and walked round to the boot, where she got out her suitcase and placed it on the floor. Nick must have noticed her, because moments later, she heard incoming footsteps. Looking up quickly, she was glad to see Nick smiling down at her. She missed his smile, one of the best things about him. It represented his kindness that so many people over looked. He was probably the kindest person she had ever met.

"Got enough bags there?" he asked laughing slightly. Then again, he was also very sarcastic.

"I have everything I need" she said. They greeted each other with a big hug, just like they always did, but this time, Cara was sure she heard Nick smell her hair.

She had been to his school a couple of times, but only for the day, never had she stayed overnight. Quickly, Nick led her through endless corridors of his school, occasionally saying hello to fellow classmates, some of which greeted her as well. This was different to McKinley, everyone was very reserved. Eventually, they came to Nick's dorm, where Nick pushed the door open in an overly dramatic way. Cara thought the room was empty, until someone popped there head out from the bathroom and stared at them both for a while. Cara recognized him as Jeff, Nicks room mate who she had met a couple of times.

"Hi" Jeff said nervously, looking straight at Cara, completely ignoring Nick wandering around the room already. Cara was about to speak, she always thought Jeff was kind of cute, but nerves got the better of her. Besides, Nick had already replied for both of them.

"Hey" said Nick, not realising that Jeff's hello was mainly based towards Cara. Jeff turned and rushed back into the bathroom, shutting the door as he went. Nick checked himself in the mirror, adjusting his fringe a little bit, before walking back over to Cara and picking up her bag.

"You're sleeping in my bed tonight" he said, placing her bag under his bed.

"Well, where are you going to sleep?" she asked.

"On the floor, there's enough room"

"Are you sure?"

"It's only for one night" he said lying down on his bed as if he hadn't just given it to his best friend. He seemed really happy, almost as if he was excited about squeezing onto the floor for the night.

"Well what are we doing today then?" Cara asked, throwing herself down next to him and snuggling into his chest. You could say this was too intimate for two best friends, but they weren't bothered, they never thought anything of it.

"There's a warbler party tonight, but until then, we can just chill" Nick said just as Jeff walked out.

"Oh and you can join us too Jeff, we're just going to hang out here until tonight" Nick repeated. The three of them did just that. They stayed out in the dorm for the rest of the day, talking and laughing at all of the little Nick stories (Nick never told stories about Cara because he knew she didn't like it).

Cara was certainly in no hurry for this warbler party to begin, she could have sat here all day talking to her best friend. But it had to start sometime, and soon enough, the three of them were heading off to the choir room.
