Chapter 1- The New Guy
"So, Quinn, who's that guy you've been hanging around with in the hallway? You two look pretty close." Mercedes asked her as they entered the choir room together.
"Oh, you mean Jack? He's the new guy. Just moved here from Michigan. I met him in my English, and we started talking. He's actually pretty cool." Quinn answered.
"And hot." Santana added.
Quinn smirked and let out a small giggle.
"Ooh, you like him don't you?" Mercedes asked when she saw a rosy blush come to Quinn's cheeks.
"He's alright." Quinn tried to quickly stop the speculation. "He did mention that he can sing though."
"Girl you better invite him to glee club soon." Mercedes fixed her stare on Quinn to see how she thought about it.
"Yeah, of course," Quinn didn't particularly want to but she saw no harm in it.
Just then Mr. Schuester walked into the room.
"Alright guys, this week's assignment-" Mr. Schue was interrupted by an unfamiliar face walking into the choir room.
The man stopped and looked around for a second as if he had just walked into the wrong building but still trying to figure it out. Mr. Schue got a skeptical look on his face. Quinn's eyes widened.
"Can I help you?" Mr. Schue asked, saying his words slowly.
"Ah, hey. My name's Jack, I'm new to this school. I hear this is the singing club?"
"Glee club," Mr. Schue corrected. "Great to meet you, thanks for joining in Jack. How about you take a seat over there?" Mr. Schue pointed toward the rows of red chairs on the opposite side of the room. "I was just about to get started."
Jack walked over and took a seat next to Quinn.
"How did you know I was here?" Quinn whispered, sounding almost angry.
"I saw you walk in a few minutes ago." Jack replied without expression. "I heard you say something what song you thought some annoying girl was going to be singing today? Thought I'd see what was going on in here."
Quinn drew her eyebrows together and pursed her lips.
"Ok, that's not alright. You can't just walk around stalking me and following me into wherever I go." Quinn quietly yelled at him.
"Seems like I just did." Jack said with a certain kind of charm. He was one of those people who's just naturally charming to others.
Quinn's mood lightened but she pretended to still be angry.
"Well don't do it again." She said to Jack.
"Quinn! Save the discussion for after class." Mr. Schue scolded.
"Sorry." Quinn said as she glared at Jack.
Jack chuckled quietly. Quinn rolled her eyes.
"Alright so as I was saying, this week's assignment is to sing a Florence and the Machine song. Would anyone like to give it a go before class is over today?" Mr. Schue questioned.
Rachel raised her hand high.
"I would!" She spoke before being called on.
Mr. Schue took a sip of his coffee and set it back down on top of the piano.
"Sure." Mr. Schue said to Rachel. "The floor's all yours."
Rachel stood up and hurriedly walked to the center of the room.
"I am going to be singing the song 'What Kind of Man'," She announced. "It's dedicated to a certain person I know."
Finn looked around and scratched his head awkwardly.
After about 40 more minutes of Mr. Schuster lecturing about how Florence and the Machine came about, class was finally over. Quinn tried to quickly walk out so she wouldn't have to talk to Jack again, but he caught up to her.
"Quinn! Wait!" Jack yelled.
Quinn stopped for a moment to let him get closer to her.
"What?" Quinn asked in an annoyed voice.
"Have a good rest of your day, I'll make sure to see you tomorrow morning. See you later, Quinn."
