Author's Note: Hello! I've been watching the second season of The Glee Project and I am a huge Blellie shipper. I cannot even describe how sad and angry I am that Nellie was sent home. She was my favorite contender and I wanted her to win. I cried when she was eliminated. But I won't get really into it or we'll be here all day. So this is my second fanfic. To those of you who read my first fanfic The Glee Project: Marissam, I'm sorry to say that it is discontinued. I lost inspiration for the story. My interest is now in Blellie. So I hope you enjoy this fanfic and please leave reviews! They are greatly appreciated! Enjoy!
Nellie sat quietly on the couch with the rest of the contenders as they talked about the celebrities they were chosen to become.
"I can just picture you in the meat dress!" Ali laughed, pointing at Shanna.
"I know! That's the only thing running through my mind right now," Shanna laughed back.
Abraham put his arm around Nellie's shoulder. "And Nellie as Britney Spears! That's gonna be exciting!" He gave her a little shake.
"Yay," Nellie said with little enthusiasm.
"Oh c'mon! You're gonna be great," he said encouragingly.
"Yeah, especially with that outfit of yours! You're gonna look sexy as hell!" yelled Aylin.
Nellie sunk lower in her seat and turned red, pouting while everyone laughed and agreed.
Some of the contenders left the room only leaving Nellie, Michael and Blake. Michael and Blake were talking on one side of the couch while Nellie went to the kitchen to get something to drink. She had been thinking about the music video and that darned outfit. Why do they always pick me to do these sexy parts? Nellie thought as she opened the refrigerator. She stared blindly at it, spacing out.
"You okay?'
Nellie jumped at the sudden presence. She whipped around to see Blake standing behind her with an apology in his eyes.
"Sorry…I didn't mean to scare you."
"No, it's fine," Nellie said, forcing a smile. "What's up?"
"You looked out of it before. I just wanted to know if you were okay." Blake leaned against the counter, crossing his arms across his chest.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Perfect," Nellie lied. She again forced a smile. She turned back to the fridge and snatched a water bottle.
"Nellie, I know you're lying. We're best friends. Tell me what's wrong." Nellie turned around to face Blake. Darn him for knowing me so well, she thought.
She sighed, looking down at the floor. "I'm just nervous. They're always giving me parts that make me uncomfortable," she mumbled.
Blake understood at once what was wrong and gave a small smile. "Nellie, you are beautiful. You were amazing in each of the music videos we've done so far and you're gonna kill this one."
Nellie blushed a deep red with the compliment and shrugged, avoiding Blake's eyes. He stepped closer to her and lifted her chin up, forcing her to look at him. "Trust me, you are going to be wonderful. I promise."
Nellie gave a small smile, looking into his eyes. Then she noticed how close they were to each other. She didn't want to break the spell so she remained still, staring into Blake's big brown eyes. She could feel his warm breathe on her face. Her heart pumped faster and faster.
Nellie had a crush on Blake ever since the first week of The Glee Project. She was closest to Blake and Michael in the house and they were always together. Nellie had at first had a small crush on Michael, but during sexuality week, newfound feelings started to surface for Blake. The chemistry between them was evident. She always found herself staring at him. She was always admiring his eyes, his hair, his muscles. Nellie loved the way his voice sounded when he talked, and when he sang, it was gorgeous.
Blake ran his hand from her chin to her neck, cupping it. Nellie worried he would hear her heartbeat as it pound impossibly faster. "You promise I'll do good?"
"I promise," he breathed.
Blake leaned in ever so slowly, looking from her eyes to her small, cute lips. Nellie looked down to his lips and started leaning towards Blake. Their lips got closer and they were a breath away when-
"Blake!"
They jumped apart quickly and took several steps away from each other. They both smoothed out their unwrinkled clothes just as Michael entered the kitchen.
"Blake, I need you to listen to me practice the song for the music video."
Blake gave Michael a death glare while Nellie looked around the room. Michael noticed the look Blake gave him and gave an innocent shrug. "What?"
"Nothing. I'll be right there," Blake said, waving him off.
"Ok," Michael said, turning around and leaving.
Blake looked at Nellie until she met his eyes. He sighed and went over to her and kissed her forehead. He turned around and left to go strangle Michael. Nellie blushed and closed her eyes, wishing Michael hadn't interrupted.
She sighed. Darn Michael.
