"Marley, you'll be with Santana," I looked at the girl walking up to me and gave a small smile while the rest of the people were being paired up, "Kitty you'll be with Quinn and Wade, Mercedes."

Brittany looked between the two and whispered to Sam, "I knew it, Mercedes was cloned."

Sam and Brittany gave a look to each other and stayed quiet. I cocked my head to the side by the exchange. Usually I was the only one she said stuff like that to. I wasn't angry or anything, just curious with what's changed.

"Now, your mentors are here to help you with whatever you need. Singing, Dancing-"

Quinn cut in and added, "Birth control.."

Kitty laughed at Quinn's joke, "You're so funny and self-deprecating. We're so much alike."

"Hm. Wanky," I said with a smirk. I started day dreaming while the rest were talking. It's not like I actually cared about sectionals. I wasn't even going to this school anymore. I was mostly here for Brittany. If she needed help, I'd be there regardless of the cause.

I picked at my nails while they continued, "Marley and Blaine will handle our duet and for our show stopper we're doing gangnam style."

It was obvious that Finn didn't get the respect Mr. Shue had around here even if they're both clueless at their jobs, "Okay, lumps let me just say out loud what everyone here is thinking. You finally got an okay hair cut, you're not doing that annoying half smirk as much as you used to,but you're still an idiot. No one in this room can tackle a massive dance number except for Brit and that includes your little hand jive which to me looked like a hand j-"

As I was interrupted by Joe I lost interest once again. Marley seemed to be a bit uncomfortable with my little comments but almost a little amused which made me think that this mentoring thing might be easier than I thought. Everyone around here said she was just another Rachel Berry but instead of Broadway she wanted to sing on the radio. It was a step up from being less annoyed by the girl. I gave her a little nudge while she tried to keep herself as involved as possible. It caused her to smile at me a bit.

Once I heard Brittany's name, my head snapped up, "Someone's going to have to do with dance number with Brit."

I saw two boys sit up at the chance but Sam pointed towards himself, "Hello, White chocolate."

He started dancing in front of Brittany and she was amused while clapping along. I laughed at her smile while Mercedes kept saying no. I was happy that she was happy.

Before walking over to join Brittany and Quinn, I sat down with Marley for a bit. She looked a little pale but I figured maybe she was tired or something.

She turned to me and smiled, "So, why are you back at your old high school? Shouldn't you be working on cartwheels or studying for huge tests?"

I smiled at her and shook my head, "No, College isn't that bad for me. I had some time off and I was asked to come down so I did."

I kept my eyes trained on Brittany and that wasn't missed by Marley, "If you miss her why aren't you with her? I mean, you're here. Shouldn't you guys be working it out?"

"There's nothing to work out.", I exhaled and shook my head, "I told her that I didn't want it to end badly so it's better to just break it off before it becomes too messy. Besides, I heard she tried shaving her head out of depression and I don't want to be the cause of that," I smiled again at Marley and looked at her, "You're brave to be talking to someone with a rep like mine about this stuff. I could've said-"

"I don't think you would've said anything mean. You're my mentor and plus I don't see you being the girl your reputation precedes anymore."

I nudged her before I walked up to my two girls and started off the lesson for us, "Along with being beautiful, the three of us are national choir championship goddesses."

I had my attention on Marley until I realized I should acknowledge everyone else in the room, "We are winners which is why Finn has asked us to shower you with the inspiration that is the unholy trinity."

Marley smiled at my cockiness while Quinn continued, "Santana, Brittany and I knew each other so well that I could tell by the slightest quiver in Santana's upper lip which way we were going to move. Whether our hips were going to shake or shimmy."

I thought about how dirty that must have sounded but it was true. We were that close with each other and I'm sure that it was a miracle that Quinn never had a thing for Brit and I, "Now you girls have to be tight up there Okay? The judges love the feminine quality and the warblers just don't have it."

"It's about being individuals. You know, we're all different but it's also about synchronicity."

"Can you give us an example?", Marley said with excitement. I felt bashful as she looked at me for an answer.

Brittany and I turned to Quinn out of habit, "It's been a few months but I'm sure the three of us can put together something on the fly."

We did another rendition of the supremes and while performing I noticed Marley looking really sick. I would've just stopped dancing and singing on the spot to see if she was okay but I knew it couldn't have been that serious.

Keeping performances up I waited until the end of the song to say anything, "Hey are you feeling okay? You look like you're gonna hurl."

She looked alarmed for someone noticing and stumbled over her words, "I-I'm- I think I'm just really tired from all the rehearsing."

I stared her down as she quickly got off the piano and rushed out of the room. Of course Quinn and Brittany also noticed how sick she looked. We sat with each other while I waited for Marley to return.

"Your little buddy didn't look so well. Hopefully we don't catch whatever she has"

I shook my head while keeping my eyes trained on the door, "I'm sure it's nothing you can catch. But she is sick."

I tried shaking the thought and turned to Brittany, "So what's up with you and Sam?"

"What do you mean?"

I gave her a look saying that I knew what was going on and she blushed, "EW no Santana. He's like... My brother. That'd be weird."

"I'm just saying. That's how it looks."

"Who would think it'd be okay for us to be together. That's like incest or something isn't it?"

I laughed and nodded, "That's exactly what it is."

A/N: Playful stab at how Glee is fucking up and Bram shouldn't ever happen. EVER. but yeah. Marley/Santana dig it. Review and all that good stuff.
