I had to do it—James just strikes me as a Glee lover! I don't know why...
And I don't own BTR or Glee, or anything else of that sort. But I do have some Glee Ritz crackers in my cupboard and a download of "If I Ruled The World"! :) Yay!
James Diamond loved to sing—that was no secret. He was a part of one of the hottest boy bands ever. He also loved to act. A few people knew that. What no one knew was that he loved Glee.
Yes, the hit Fox T.V. Show was his biggest guilty pleasure. Everyone knew about his love of shows like Entourage, which seemed to describe his life perfectly at some moments. (Vincent Chase was totally his idol.) And it was obvious to anyone that was around him for more than 30 minutes that he loved action-packed movies like X-Men. But Glee was an obsession he'd rather not share with the world.
He couldn't help but watch it. The romantic storyline between Finn and Rachel, the "Romeo and Juliet"-West Side Story-ish relationship Quinn and Puck seemed to have since Quinn cheated on Finn (the names got him to laugh every time) with Puck and got pregnant, the drama with Sue Sylvester every week... James couldn't get enough! Not to mention the most epic performances of songs that seemed to be dead to the world for years. The show was perfect.
—ly girly. Perfectly girly. With his constant obsessions with his hair and fashion, James was already given some strange looks. If he mentioned to even his very best friends that he loved the dramatic, humorous, epically awesome show that summed up Glee, he'd surely be made fun of for life.
But one day as James sat in the empty apartment 2J, watching the entire season one on the DVD he secretly stashed in his and Carlos' bedroom, something changed.
Kendall, Logan, and Carlos came into the apartment, just as James was half way through the DVD. It was the sectionals episode—one of James' all-time favorites—and he wasn't quick enough (or willing) to turn it off.
"Hey, James, wanna go to—are you watching Glee?" Carlos said as they entered the apartment, interrupting himself once he saw the television screen.
"Uhh..." James wasn't sure how to reply. Carlos didn't seem like he was going to make fun of him...but you never know with Carlos.
"Oh I love this episode!" Logan exclaimed, sitting next to James to watch.
"Oh yeah—this is the one where Sue gave their set list away!" Kendall followed, also taking a seat, along with Carlos.
"Sweet! I didn't know it was coming on today," Carlos excitedly commented as he stared at the screen.
James stared at his three best friends, a confused look on his face. "You—you guys like this show?" he finally questioned.
The other three gave him the "duh!" look.
"Who doesn't love this show?" Logan answered what he thought had to be the dumbest question he'd heard in weeks.
"Seriously—it's the best!" Carlos followed.
"Shh! Shut up, guys—they're about to win!" Kendall interrupted, waving his arms to shut the other three up.
Carlos and Logan immediately followed the blond's direction, turning back to the television screen in front of them. James gave a big smile to himself, and continued to watch the show.
It was official: Glee was awesome.
