Okay, so I'm not sure how this works or if I'm doing this right so please, bear with me! This story is supposed to be about Blaine's past I do have a writing schedule and I'm almost done the second chapter so yes I'll update often and no don't send tons of messages asking for more chapters. (Ha! I'm getting ahead of myself, i don't even know if anyone is going to read this yet!) This chapter is short and kinda more like an introduction so the actual plot will come later in the longer, better chapters! I don't want to make this too rambly so I'll wrap it up. Reviews will be greatly appreciated but nothing mean please! :)
Thanks, MsTalented25 :)

He's Not So Popular
Blaine Anderson is definitely not popular. At first you would wonder why, he is nice, kind, generous, and an all around great guy. He is a little short but still very handsome. He is athletic, although he didn't play on any sports teams. He's smart without coming across as a know-it-all or being grouped as a "nerd". Of course that's just at first, get to know him a little better and it's apparent why he's not part of the popular clique. He is part of the schools show choir, the only one of two guys in the group and the other boy was at the very bottom of the social food chain. He auditioned for the school musical and of course got the role. He doesn't really like to talk to anyone out of his group of friends, which he doesn't have to worry about because people ignored him anyway, and he always seems like he's nervous or even afraid. You could tell that he was hiding something, that he wasn't being true to himself, and you would be right. Although the main reason for his failed social status would probably be that he didn't care. He was perfectly happy being a loser, he had some great friends and that's really all that mattered to him. So here he was sitting with his four good friends and of course Judy. Judy was truly his best friend, they had so much in common and they hung out all the time. He felt like he could tell her anything, well, almost anything.
"So who finished the math homework last night? I certainly didn't!" Angie, or Angela, said. Angie was short with a cute brown bob haircut and equally cute big brown eyes. She had a very warm smile that sadly she didn't show very often because of the monstrous amount of metal attached to her teeth supposedly making them straighter.
"I did!" Cassandra piped up. She preferred to be called Cassie and most people only called her Cassandra when they were mad or wanted to annoy her. Cassie wasn't fat, she was just very muscular due to how much training she was doing. She wore baggy clothes to try and hide herself and was constantly being teased about her figure. Add glasses, bright red (really it was orange) hair and freckles and she was instantly an outcast. Joining glee club, mathletes, and quiz bowl definitely didn't help either.
"You always finish, normal people like us don't!" Katie grumbled. Katie had a very quick temper, and was upset very easily, her mood could be all over the place depending on the day, place, and time. Right now she seemed to be irritable and crabby. Only her close friends really tolerated her mood swings, everyone else was intimidated or weirded out, but she was actually a very nice, intelligent, honest girl. She had dirty blonde/light brown hair that she was constantly changing by adding highlights, clip-on extensions, and cutting it in different ways ever few days. Today her blue and green bangs were hanging down in front of her face while the rest of her thick brown hair was pulled into a high ponytail. She had piercing green eyes and small, defined features.
"What about you Maddy?" Angie asked. Maddy just shook her head in response. She had just come to the school a few weeks ago and her friends were trying to get her to come out of her shell but the only person she had spoken to was Katie. All Katie would tell them is that she's been through a rough time and wasn't ready to talk to people about it yet, problem was she wasn't ready to talk to people about anythingyet. She still sang though, no solos, but she did harmonize in the background. She was pale with blonde hair, and deep hazel eyes filled with sadness.
"See!" Katie protested, "Normal people don't do homework!" Cassie just rolled her eyes.
"Okay well what about you guys, did you finish?" She asked turning to Judy and Blaine.
"Almost," Judy sighed, "There were only a couple of questions I didn't understand so I just left them." One might say Judy was perfect. She was tall and blonde with bright blue eyes. Her fashion sense was impeccable and she always looked polished and put together. She was smart as well as a star soccer player, and part of many other extra curricular activities, her favourite being glee club. One also might ask why she was hanging out in the "loser gang" as the popular kids put it, but the answer to that was simple. They were her best friends and she loved them. She felt comfortable around them and wasn't afraid to let her mask slip a little. She loved all her friends. Especially Blaine, he was her very best friend, and sometimes she wished they were more than that. Of course he was being an average teenage boy and was completely oblivious, but she found that cute and was actually a bit thankful because if he found and didn't feel the same way it would make their friendship incredibly awkward. Yes, being best friends with Blaine and secretly crushing on him was mush better than telling him how she felt and not being friends with him at all.
"I can help you later if you want. I got it all!" Blaine offered with a smile.
"Sure!" Judy agreed because any excuse to spend time with Blaine was one she was definitely going to take. Just then the bell rang, and the six of them got up with very little enthusiasm.
"Ugh! I have chemistry! I seriously swear if Ms. Thompson gives us anymore homework I'm gunna give her a piece of my mind and fist!" Katie scowled.
"I'd like to see that!" Angie said with a laugh. Katie shot her a glare and opened her mouth to snap back, but Maddy whispered something in her ear.
"What'd she say?" asked Cassie.
"She says that she has English and will need to stay a bit late for some help on the essay, so she'll probably be late for glee." Katie replied, all the bitterness from earlier gone from her voice.
"That's okay!" Blaine said with a smile, and Maddy returned the smile very shyly.
"Well me and Blaine are off to History, see y'all later." Judy said grabbing Blaine's hand and heading away from their friends. She knew that if they waited much longer they'd be late and neither Judy nor Blaine had been late that year, Judy very much wanted to keep it that way, being the perfect student and all.
"Okay class, this month we are going to be working on partner projects. These projects will require minimal help from myself and you must choose your partner wisely, I don't want anyone goofing off so the partners must be girl/boy. You are going to split the work, but you will still need to work together during class, and on your own time, so let me know once you've chosen a partner and I will give you the instruction booklets." When the teacher finished her little speech, students began to mill about the classroom trying to find a decent partner that they might actually get a good mark with. Off course Judy didn't have to look for her partner, another advantage to having a boy best friend. Her and Blaine went up to the front got their booklets inwardly groaning at the size, they must have been 30 pages thick double sided, all filled with questions and activities to be completed by the end of the month. Slumping back down into their seats they began to discuss the project, their previously happy mood ruined by the workload now bestowed upon them.
"Okay this looks like a lot of work." Blaine said flipping through the book, his eyes wide.
"We should probably start as soon as we can, none of the other teachers gave us homework today so how about you come over tonight and we'll get right to it?" Judy asked with the same determination she used when facing any other challenge, because really, Judy loved a challenge.
"Sounds good to me!" Blaine said with a shrug and one of his signature smiles. Judy was inwardly squealing, yet another reason to spend time with her best friend and secret crush, how much more lucky can she get!
