A/N: I'm back. Sorry it's taken me so long to get anything new out (for Glee, at least), and I know this isn't what you guys were expecting. I haven't abandoned "What Makes Us Strong," but it's hard to work on while I'm at work. I've used my last couple of lunch hours to write some drabbles, a modified version of the I-Pod challenge. I set my MP3 player to shuffle and wrote a drabble for each song that came up. I'm doing something different with each drabble though. I'm going to post the title of the song and artist and include the lyrics of each song, followed by the drabble. If you know the song or don't want to read the lyrics, then skip straight to the drabble. I'm posting the lyrics because I never seem to know the songs in others' fics and thus never know what the drabble has to do with the song, so I thought posting the lyrics might help anyone who doesn't know the song. Song lyrics are in italics. I'll post several drabbles at a time, so I'll only post the first from each day's group in the community. Just follow the links to get to the next ones - they'll all be connected like a multi-chapter story. Finally, the drabbles are unrelated. Please read and review! Thanks!
Love Story by Taylor Swift
We were both young when I first saw you See the lights That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone So I sneak out to the garden to see you 'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone Romeo save me, they try to tell me how to feel I got tired of waiting Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone And said, marry me Juliet Oh, oh, oh, oh
I close my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the party, the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don't go, and I said
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don't go and I said
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story baby just say yes
Oh oh
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you is fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story baby just say yes
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
Rachel was standing on the edge of the floor watching her friends dance. She sighed. Her prom wasn't anything like she had expected. She hadn't thought she'd be on the sidelines watching. She definitely hadn't thought that Finn would dump her two days before the big event.
"So, Berry, you here alone?"
Sighing again, Rachel turned to the annoying source of the voice. She fully expected Puck to make fun of her. Instead, he simply asked, "Want to dance?"
When he led her onto the floor, she thought that maybe going to prom alone wasn't so bad.
