I do not own Glee or anything to do with it. That belongs to Ryan Murphy and FOX
To celebrate my birthday which is tomorrow I thought I would upload my first chapter of my new fanfic which I will be doing as soon as I have finished `Blind Auctions`. This is AU and is based on Strictly come dancing/Dancing with the stars/what to expect when you're expecting as Emma will be a contestant and Will a professional dancer and they get partnered together basically their journey through the show. Other Glee people will feature but will mostly be AU characters and wemma. Hope you enjoy
Stargazing
Chapter one: Pick your partner!
"Hello there. You look nervous" a warm voice filled Emma`s ears as she glanced into the kind face of the receptionist
"Emma Pillsbury I`m a psychologist to the stars. I`m here for Stargazing the new reality dancing show launch night. Although I`m unsure where to go" Emma replied fingering her red dress nervously
"Well how about I get Louisa to show you. She`s my assistant" The receptionist smiled turning around and looking at a young blonde girl. `Louisa please will you help Miss Pillsbury to the studio" she looked at the girl who scowled but then got up out of her seat and walked over to Emma
"Gloria you know I have other things to do. Why can't she find her own way" Louisa scowled
"Honestly I can find my own way if it's easier" Emma stammered but Gloria interrupted her
"Emma I have been receptionist here for over thirty years and seen women nervous as you. The least you could do is have a bit of help" Gloria smiled and Emma nodded. Gloria then turned to Louisa and the blonde girl walked out of the reception area followed by Emma
"So tell me. Who are you looking to have as your partner? Dean is so dreamy plus he is the defending champion." Louisa grinned. Emma shook her head
"There is one I wish I could have. However I don't think I will get him. He`s the best. Plus he hasn't won for over eight years and the judges don't really like him that much" Emma replied
"Who?" Louisa said puzzled and Emma gave a small smile playing with her long red hair which she had pulled up
"William Schuester" she replied "Now I know he has a bit of a reputation but there is something about him" she smiled
"A bit" Louisa scoffed standing against the studio door "Look whoever he has been with since he won with Rosie Daniels the pre teen singer, all the others have either quit or not got to the quarter finals. If you get him good luck" she sniffed. "Here is the studio but I have to go. Gloria is waiting for me" she explained. Emma stared as she walked back down the corridor then hitched her red dress up and proceeded to enter the studio to see who her partner would be.
"Will my good friend!" Dean Rodgers exclaimed as he shook Will`s hand. Dean was the defending champion and even though Will and Dean were best friends Will seemed to harbour something with Dean for getting 2 good women in the space of 2 years.
"Dean" Will nodded shaking it back "So tell me how have things between you and Camilla". Dean and Camilla were professional partners and after years of will they won't they finally admitted they were in a personal relationship. Dean nodded and smiled as he looked across at her the stunning brunette was chatting to another one of the professionals Dani her best friend
"Were good" he replied with a smirk. "And what about you. Found the one yet"
"Dean you know not yet. I thought Raquel was the one but she ran off to America to focus on movies and not so much about dancing" Will sighed running his hands through his hair. For the first few seasons of Stargazing he and Raquel Williams one of the other professionals were in a personal and professional relationship but after rumours spread that something went down between Will and the girl he won the title with in the first season, Rosie Daniels. Raquel called things quit and ran to America. Will always denied the accusations and the last thing he knew about Raquel was that she was in the arms of some American basketball player
"Well you never know. Maybe you will find her this season" Dean smiled as he walked across to join Camilla who swept her boyfriend up in a hug. Will watched the pair and sighed to himself. He wanted that but everything seemed to go against him. He didn't just want girls who were after him for the fame and the lifestyle but somebody who believed him for who he was. He glanced up to see another professional dancer Megan McGosky and his face frowned
"Hello Will" Megan smiled walking over to him
"Megan I don't think we should talk" Will replied "I mean what we had over the summer was lovely but now we are here to go into battle with one another"
"I respect what you are saying" Megan replied pushing her blonde hair out of her eyes "But maybe after the competition is over with. We can talk discuss our future. Because I am not interested in anyone else"
"Megan ok fine" Will replied not interested in what she was saying. Megan gave a wide smile as she left Will, passing the host of the show Rufus Count and his co host Julia London as she got into position beside Camilla, Dani and the five other professional females. Will headed backstage to stand next to Dean and the rest of the professional males
"What did Megan want" Dean whispered
"Just wishing me good luck" Will whispered back. Dean gave his friend a sideways look but couldn't do anything more as the cameras started rolling and Rufus and Julia walked onto set
"Thank you Colin" Rufus smiled. Colin Danzier and Peter Belmer were two of the judges both ex professional dancers and partners and joining them were Leanne Akins a choreographer to the stars and more in the routine side than the performance side. "Now Leanne we move onto the boys. After Dean`s win last season can any of the other guys take his title"
"Rufus I don't know" Leanne replied gigging slightly "I mean Dean he`s charming a brilliant dancer and I think now he has revealed his relationship with Camilla that will only make the public like him more. James is also a strong favourite it just depends on what partner he gets. And as always William you can't rule him out" she blushed slightly
"Very well" Rufus nodded "Let's bring out our first three female celebrities first we have psychologist to the stars Emma Pillsbury singer and songwriter Anna Conway and politician Margaret Watson" he replied. Emma Anna and Margaret walked onto the stage and as Rufus walked across to Anna first she felt slightly nervous. She looked up at the professional dancers and could catch a glimpse of Will stood in front of Dean. She smiled slightly to herself
"So Anna the person you are going to be partnered up with is. Dean Rodgers!" Rufus exclaimed. Dean gave a yell as he ran up to Anna and gave her a hug. The pair then walked off the stage together and Rufus moved onto Emma
"So Emma. You are a psychologist. So whoever you get might need a bit of analysing" Rufus grinned as the audience laughed
"I'll try Rufus" Emma nodded
"Ok the person you are going to be partnered up with is" Rufus replied as there was a pause "William Schuester" Rufus announced as Will walked down the stairs and gave her a kiss on the cheek
"Well William what do you think" Rufus grinned
"Yeah very good" Will nodded as Emma could hardly believe her luck. She glanced up at Will and slowly bit her lip
"Well you two go off to Julia. William and Emma everyone" Rufus exclaimed as there was a loud cheer from the audience, mostly from Will`s fans and they both walked off stage
"Hey man" Dean grinned as he embraced his friend "So you got the psychologist"
"Dean I think you will be winning again this year" Will whispered however he couldn't talk anymore as Julia wanted to talk to him and Emma. He sat next to his partner and wondered what he had done to deserve this because for all he knew he could be going out the competition in the first round this year
Next time
Will and Emma clash in rehearsals and after the first week goes wrong Emma questions whenever she can do this or not. Meanwhile Megan makes it clear to Will she won't take no for an answer
Don't worry this is just the first chapter so everything has to go through its own pace. I also thought I would do something a little bit differently. Anyway hope you enjoyed it and also happy birthday to Nicole (Ma1teo) who also celebrates her birthday tomorrow as well.
