So here I am listening to Puckerman going on and on about "rocking my world". I feel flatter but very much offended. Yes he is standing there singing that he likes me and blah blah blah. But come on! If you have seen me, you would know what I'm talking about. I'm huge, I'm three sizes he is, and I could possibly "hurt" him. So why me? Well from what I've heard he is a major player! Last year he got a girl all prego. Dated Rachel, made out with Santanna and Brittany. He had a "thing" for Mercedes. The only one that he has not yet swoon over is Tina. So to me this is just another one of his silly mind games, so I for one I'm not falling for it. While I'm pondering this I hear Mr. Shue talking about our topic for this week. Did I just hear "anything" free range! Sweet. Great I feel my hand going up why? I was planning on lying low for a while, go unnoticed. "Mr. shue?" wait was that me? Yeah that's me cause he is staring at me and everyone else in the club. "Yes, Lauren?" say some thing "I already have a song that I'd like to sing, and get something out of my chest, is it okay if I do mine now?" stuttering as I speak, just when I need my confidence the most it runs away from me. "Sure Lauren goes ahead." All right he gave me permission!
As I walk over to the band all eyes are on me including pucks! He has the confused and oh crap what is she going to sing look. (kinda cute) okay that was weird? So I whisper the song to the band I what song I want to sing and the intro starts. All I hear is the music and what I feel.
Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance, mmmm
Miss unafraid
Miss out of my way
Miss don't let a man interfere, no Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help her off her throne
I look over to puck his face is priceless I hope he gets this, and that he just looks stupid.
So, by keeping her heart protected
She'll never, ever feel rejected
Little miss apprehensive
Said ooh, she fell in love(Chorus)
What is this feeling taking over?
Thinking no one could open the door
Surprise, it's time, to feel what's real
What happened to miss independents no longer need to be defensive?
Goodbye, old you, when love, is true
Wait hold on what did I just say!
Misguided heart
Miss play it smart
Miss if you wanna use that line, you better not start, no
But she miscalculated
She didn't wanna end up jaded
And this miss decided not to miss out on true love
So, by changing a misconception
She went in a new direction
And found inside, she felt a connection
She fell in love (Bridge)
When miss independent walked away
No time for love that came her way
She looked in the mirror and thought today
What happened to miss no longer afraid?
It took some time for her to see
How beautiful love could truly be
No more talk of why can't that be me
I'm so glad I've finally seen
(Chorus)
What is this feeling taking over?
Thinking no one could open the door
Surprise, it's time, to feel what's real
What happened to miss independent's no longer need to be defensive?
Goodbye, old you, when love, is true (when love, is true)
Miss independent
Alright I guess the message came out a little vague, but I rocked that song! Everyone was clapping and cheering when I am done. Now they left me along with Puck. I thought we were a "team", and since when "team mates" leave you alone with the one thing or person you can't avoid. All right time to face the music.
