I ran quickly to my first class. I arrived fifteen minutes early to my class, as I did in Middle School. The teacher arrived a few minutes after me. She took a look at my purple polka dotted shirt and white skirt, then cleared her throat. A stampede of students came in! I saw a girl with a curly blonde ponytail and right behind her was...
"Hi, do you mind if I sit here?" A boy asked me,
"Um, not at all." I said quickly, my mouth dropped at amazement. I never thought a boy could look like that. He of course was going to be popular while me with my skirts and knee high socks were going to be not as popular.
"My name is Finn, what's your name?"
"R-rachel, Rachel Berry." I stuttered as the blonde next to him started to laugh.
"Nice to meet you. This is my girlfriend Quinn Fabray." He said pointing to the girl with the curly blonde ponytail next to him.
"I'm going to be a cheerleader this year, and what clubs might I ask are you going to join?" Quinn said with an attitude only girls can understand.
"I want to join the Glee Club, I was a member of our show choir at my Middle School. We were the B-Sharps, I came up with the name." I smiled, I was very proud that I could admit I had joined the best club at my middle school.
"That sounds so cool! Quinn, we should join Glee Club with Rachel!" Finn exclaimed, but Quinn did not look amused.
"I can't sing, I would rather be doing my back handsprings and splits. Do you know how many calories you do by singing, Rachel? Not very many, I would watch what you eat." She gave me a sour look, but I could tell she was jealous by me and Finn's sudden connection.
"I am a vegan, so I have nothing to worry about. I am trying out for Glee Club on Thursday. You can join me if you want, Finn." I said hopefully.
"I would love to join. I really wish Quinn could come though."
"I'm really not in the mood for arguing with you, Finn, so I am just going to talk to people who really understand me. Santana, what are you doing after school today?" Quinn asked the puerto rican girl next to her.
"I am practicing for my tryout with the cheerios. While Finn is off with the dwarf you could come over to my house and give me some feedback. I will be sure to give you honest feedback about what I really think of your routine." Santana replied, she got up to sit with a different blonde. Quinn followed Santana. She was leaving me alone with Finn.
"You should try out for the School Play, we are doing Into the Woods, its one of my favorites." I said, hoping he had the guts to perform in front of people.
"Oh yeah, I am thinking about the part of Cinderella's prince." Finn said, I smiled at him and I thought to myself whether or not this was fate. I wanted to be Cinderella!
"Thats great, I want to be Cinderella. I guess we could work on this some time after school and help each other audition?" I smiled, Quinn was eying my across the room. I was just having a simple conversation, its not like he is cheating on her with me. Although I wouldn't mind if he did.
"Yeah totally, I will talk to you after class. I kind of need to listen on the first day of school." He responded, I simply smiled and nodded. Its not like me to not pay attention during class. Something was definitely going on with me, and I must say I like it.
After class Finn and Quinn walked hand in hand down the halls, then there was me walking behind them while trying to hurry to my next class. I could not see what he saw in her. She is very rude to him, and her friends are very rude to other students. Santana and Brittany walked pinky in pinky down the hallway too. They must be close.
In my next class, some boy was sitting in front of me wearing an Alexander Mcqueen outfit. I could spot that outfit anywhere, my dads wear those clothes all the time. I swear my dad wore those boots last week. You see I am not homophobic, I have two gay dads. I don't know who my mom is, but that dosen't really matter right now.
"Hello my name is Rachel Berry, I am here to compliment on your outfit. Don't you worry I am not homophobic I-"
"Im not gay..." He said quickly, I sat there looking embarrased.
"Oh, Im sorry I just assumed-"
"My name is Kurt Hummel, nice to be acquainted with you, Rachel. I have an eye for designer clothes and bargains. I have to go and by the way, keep your comments to yourself."
He was really offended, I knew that if I wanted to survive in High School than I am going to have to stay focused on graduating. You see my dreams are so big, I can't believe I have not mentioned them yet. I want to be a star, preferably on Broadway! My favorite musical is Funny Girl, which starred Broadway Legacy, Miss Barbra Streisand. I have many idols, but all these years I have really looked up to Barbra.
My last period was finally over, I rode the bus to get home. My dads can't pick me up from school due to their jobs, they put on musicals for the community. I have starred in all of them, it is not just because I am their daughter. They want me to have as many opportunities for experience on the stage as they can give me. I got back later than intended, but I finished my homework. I went straight to bed after my night time ritual, I had to skip the evening tea with my dads. I think High school is going to be a blast!
