A/N: Let me say that I am a die hard Samcedes shipper. This story only takes place in a world that Sam doesn't exist. I don't mean he moved back to Tennessee, I mean Sam Evans never existed. So let me know what you think and if I should even continue. REVIEWS=LOVE
"Have a seat Finn." Emma Pillsbury looked at the star quarterback of William McKinley High School and wondered what brought him to her office. Finn looked at Ms. Pillsbury and blushed. He didn't know why he blushed but he did.
"I need to know what my options are for college and stuff."
"OK. I have a pamphlet that you can take with you. Do you have any ideas about where you would like to go?"
"Rachel says that there are a lot of schools in New York that I could go to."
"OK, um, where did you have in mind?"
"I don't know. Ohio State maybe, it'd be cool to play football there."
"That's great. Let's have a look at your grades."
"Do we have to?"
"Yes. It's not that bad. If you do some serious studying. Get a tutor and do well on the SAT there is no reason you couldn't end up at any school you want."
"Great. Thanks. I'll get Rachel to start tutoring me right away."
"Um, do you think that Rachel is a good choice? It will be hard to focus with your girlfriend as a tutor. What about someone else from Glee?"
"OK, thanks Ms. Pillsbury." Finn left the guidance counselors office excited about his future. He really wanted to play football in college. The only people who knew about his dream were his mom, Burt and Coach Beiste. He hadn't told Rachel and he didn't think he wanted to. She usually got upset when Finn talked about not going to New York. While Finn was deep in thought he ran right into Artie Abrams William McKinley's resident rapper and genius.
"Artie, I need your help."
"I'm not helping you get Quinn back."
"No, I need a tutor in Math and Science."
"Oh, sure I can help with that. You can join the sessions I do with Noah."
"Thanks, man."
"No problem." Now all Finn needed was a tutor for all his other classes. He could ask Kurt but with the amount of time he spends with Blaine he wouldn't have the time. Maybe Mercedes could help. Finn knew she was really smart and in most of his classes. When Finn got to Glee he saw her sitting in her usual seat talking to Tina and Mike.
"Hi, Mercedes,"
"Hi, Finn."
"Um, I need help with some school stuff."
"What class?"
"Uh, English, History, and Spanish."
"So all of them?"
"Pretty much. Can you tutor me?"
"Why me? Artie would be much better tutor."
"He's tutoring me in math and science. His best subjects and my worst. I'm asking you because you and I have those classes together. Please I need to bring my grades up to get into college."
"Sure Finn. I'll tutor you."
"Thanks. My house after Glee."
"OK." Finn is excited to be getting help with his school work. He didn't like telling Rachel that he had to help Burt at the shop after school but it was better than explaining about Ohio State.
