Enlightenment

A/N: This was written before 'Sexy'.
Sam sat at the back of glee club, glaring at the backs of his two ex-girlfriends. As he glared at them, Rachel Berry watched him. He hadn't been the same since the break-up from Santana, after he found out she cheated on him with some British transfer-student she met at a club. He became angry, at everything, everyone. Sam would yell in the corridors at people he didn't know, he was always in Principal Figgins' office. Just yesterday he was centimetres away from slapping Mr Schu round the face.
"Guys, we will be doing duets again!" He said, happily.
"Oh, Great." Sam said sarcastically. He said it quietly so only Rachel heard it.
"Ok…" Who to pair," Mr Schu wondered, "Sam. You and… erm… Rachel."
Finn spun around, Rachel noticed, looking at her with wide eyes much to the annoyance of Quinn. Then glaring at Sam.
"What? You mother fucker stop staring at me!" Sam yelled at him.
"SAM! No bad language likes that in here please!" Mr Schu yelled, before turning to Rachel, "I hope you will be a good influence on him." He said mournfully, before turning to pair the shocked others up.
They met at her house the next day, as soon as he had taken his shoes and coat off she said sternly, "No bad language, no sulking, and no not trying hard. Ok?"
"Whatevs. Fine." He grumbled.
She sighed, "Sam. C'mon." Then pushed him up the stairs to her bedroom.
He sat down on her bed watching her as she paced up and down her room.
"Listen to me, Quinn Fabray was the wrong girl. She's cheated on every boy she's dated and you, Sam Evans, need someone who won't cheat and is willing to be in a serious relationship. So Santana? What were you thinking? She would cheat on anyone for sex. You need to find yourself a girl who is responsible, loving and attractive. Also, Sam, glaring at people's backs in glee, getting into fights, and coming close to bullying a teacher won't change the past or make the present and the future better. I know you are a nice, kind, talented boy but you just need to find a way to control your emotions and find someone nice to be with. And cheerios and really the best to be with if you want that."
Sam looked at her with wide eyes, trying to take it all in. "Woah. I feel enlightened. Like seriously enlightened. I know the path in which I should take."
Rachel laughed. As he watched her, it became slow motion. He watched her hair moving smoothly, her head going back. God, she was beautiful.
"Ok, we need to get to work on a duet now." She said going serious now, "How about hold my hand by MJ?"
"Yeah. Awesome." He grinned.
They practiced and it sounded great, at the end he grabbed her hands.
"Hold my hand. Things will be better." She sang, smiling up at him.
"You know you are beautiful." He smiled back.
Their faces slowly came closer, lips pressed together.
They didn't do any more practising.
