Chapter One

Mercedes entered the combination into her locker and opened the door. Slowly, she picked up her textbooks for the day, checked her texts messages (none) and closed the metal door. One thing was about to change for the worst though, Santana and her group of followers (this is after Quinn get's kicked off) sashayed through the middle of the hallway, which parted like the red sea. Purposely, Santana knocked Mercedes textbooks onto the floor, which Mercedes was not going to take. "Excuse me girl, did you just do that?" Mercedes said beginning to pick up separate pieces of paper. Santana walked up to Mercedes in the eye and spat out sharply, "Listen Wheezy, I know your jealous I'm head cheerleader now because of your fat issues but right now your attitude ain't working for either of us," Santana began to walk away before adding, "Oh and here's an added bonus to your work out," and knocked Mercedes papers out her hand again.

"Need a hand?" Mercedes looked up to see Kurt looking down at her scrabbling at her textbooks and homework. "Thanks Kurt, I don't see why she has to be so mean. I mean, nothing's wrong with her life, why wreck mine?" Mercedes said, handing him her calculus book.

He took the book, "Don't ask me 'Cedes, all I know is that she is the meanest girl I have ever met. Including Quinn, at first anyway." Mercedes laughed, Kurt always made her feel better.
