„Hey, get out of there! You stand in my way! Why you move so slowly?"
That belongs to my daily routine. Getting up, going to the school and listening to people making fun of me. I often wish to be invisible, but I am not the lucky one.
This all starts, when my father gets a job in a small town called Lima and we needed to move. We were living in Chicago, the best city in the whole world, but I had to leave all my friends, my memories and my whole life and move here. At first, I didn´t know, where exactly Lima is. I have never heard of tis town before, so I knew that it must be really small. I was right.
When I first come to McKinley High School, I thought that I would be able to find friends as I was in Chicago. I have never mistaken so bad in my entire life. Everybody in this stupid place is making fun of me, all because of my weight.
Ok, Roderick, come on, I told myself. I have nobody to talk with, so I have to comfort myself. I hate those kids. I hate this school. I hate this town. I hate my entire life. If I hadn´t got music, I would be very depressed.
I was listening to some songs, I can´t remember which one, when I saw new wall post. New Directions, Glee Club, Sign up below.
I´ve always wanted to be part of something like this, but in Chicago, we didn´t have any choir. You need to think about it. Ok, but I have to go away of there as fast as I can, because I see some people in Cheerio uniforms, and if they see me looking at this, they will have fun of me even more than now. I recognised them. Kids nicknamed them Creepy Incest Twins because of their strange close relationship. I have never heard that they have made fun of anybody, but I don´t rather risk, so I go away.
„Hey, Mason, check out that new wall post! We may sign up to that New Directions!"
„Are you sure that this school is ready for our talent? I think we should wait, until they have more members."
„Why? Maybe we will win some championships!"
„Not this time, Mads, not this time."
I sometimes don´t understand, why she acts like a little child. She´s the older one, so I think it should be different, but, in variant situations, she behaves like an older sister. Of course, in that types of situations in which she can be just normal. But otherwise, I sometimes let me ravish the same way she does. We are twins after all, right? And maybe it´s because we spend all time together. We go to school together, to lunch together, to cinema together, even we have the same extra school activities - The Cheerios. That´s why other kids from our school call us Creepy Incest Twins, but it doesn ´t matter to us. We don´t need any of them.
But, come back. Because we have been both very artistic since our early childhood, we tried a huge amount of activities, for example balet, hip-hop class or painting, but in all those classes they told us, that we are too hyperactive to be in their class. This is another memory from our beginnings – we always run around and make noise, so our parents called us little loud steam of energy, because we were sometimes invisible because of our high speed (I´m not lying, that´s 100% truth!). We were just like a Duracell Bunny, but we didn´t own a drum.
Few years later, our parents signed us to the cheerleader camp for beginners. There we found out, what cheerleading is and that it is such a fun. And we have won our first singing competition there, too. It was like a dream for us.
Then, as we get older, parents enrolled us to McKinley High School, because The Cheerios are legends and they have won many national competitions. We also wanted to try glee club, but they weren´t very popular, and we as freshmens wanted to be as popular as we can. So we hadn´t signed up and we later regretted it, because they made it into Nationals and they were at second place. The next year there wasn´t any glee club and almost all members were transferred into another school, everybody except Kitty Wilde, who later became the Cheerios Captain.
And now, there is a perfect chance to become a New Directions members. But of course not now, because there´s nobody signed up, and if we are the first members, then there is possibility that no one will sign after us because all that stupid gossips.
„Mason, we need to hurry up, if want to get the lunch!"
„Yeah, let´s go!"
I catch her elbow and we walk together to lunch not noticing any of those insulting nicknames they shout at us. One day they will deeply regret all the things they said!
On our way to cafeteria we met Spencer, a gay football player, who actually doesn´t look like he plays for opposite team. He shout at us and then laughs, but because we are a part of Cheerios, he and his teammates can´t give us a slushie.
„Spencer, I heard that someone wants to reunite New Directions. Maybe you can sign up..."
„Shut up, Steve! The fact that I am gay doesn´t mean I like singing and dancing! Go to hell ..."
I stand up and walk away by our tale. I hate that stupid prejudices. Why everybody thinks that I automatically love singing? Of course, in the privacy of my room I try to sing and dance, but nobody should know about this, because it could ruin everything I built in this school. None of this people make fun of me because of my orientation, except Steve. That´s because I hate him. He is simply jealous of me, because I am more handsome and hot, and he isn´t. He´s like a big, sweaty pig. He is also one of the reasons that I can´t sign to the glee club. Another one is the fact that nobody is actually in there and of course, my teammates think that only gays sing and dance or are members of something like a glee club. Oh, hell, my life is like a big tuft of lies!
