This is just a cute, fluffy Glee story. Hope you like.
"Rachel! Will you stop practicing?" Finn groaned from beside her in the cramped van.
Rachel glared at him. "Finn, Nationals are in just over twenty four hours! How can you be so calm?" She asked him, eyes softening just a bit.
"Rachel, we've practiced this every moment of every day for two months. We've skipped class, we've come over to each other's houses, we know it backwards and forwards. We're going to do great. Just stop practicing and relax." He begged, lying his head back on the seat.
"Finn's right, Rachel." Mr. Schue said from the front seat beside Mrs. Pillsbury, their female shaporone...and more. "We all need to calm down and stop practicing. It's time to rest our voices." He suggested, smiling over at Mrs. Pillsbury.
Mrs. Pillsbury nodded approvingly. "I have an idea!" She announced excitedly. "The kids can't talk until we get to the hotel! They have to communicate through their hands."
Mr. Schue glanced back at the kids through the rear view mirror, slightly disapproving. Puck was smiling dreamily over at Lauren and she was smirking back at him. Brittany was beaming over at Artie and Santana was glaring irritated out the window. Quinn was sitting by the window on the other side of Brittany with a small pout on her lips (she'd been in a bad mood since Rachel and Finn got back together). Tina was practically sitting in Mike's lap, making googly eyes at him happily. Mercedes looked around with a small smirk, playing on her lips. Her thoughts practically screamed, This is gonna be fun!Sam gazed over at the irritated Santana.
"I'm not sure that's the...best idea, Emma." Mr. Schue said nervously, reading the looks on the kids faces.
Mrs. Pillsbury shook her head with exitment, niave as always. "Yes it's great, Will! They'll have to use their hands to say what they need to say. It'll be fun! Like a game." She suggested, animatedly.
"I love Mrs. Pillsbury's idea!" Puck chimed in with a smile.
"Me too! Good idea, Mrs. Pillsbury." Sam said, smiling over at Santana again. She just smirked back. Didn't he know it was so beyond over? The boy was kinda slow.
"See, Will? The kids think it's a good idea." She sang happily. "Come on Will! We'll play too. It'll be great."
Will's eyes bugged out a bit at the suggestion. "Um...okay." He mumbled with a frown.
The kids all clapped happily. "Yay!" Rachel said, smiling up at Finn. She leaned up and kissed him quickly before pulling back and smiling at him. "I think I'm going to relax." She whispered quietly.
"Good." Finn answered with a smirk. "You should." He smiled down at Rachel, eyes glittering with love.
Quinn snorted. "Cut the crap, Finn." She growled from her place a few seats up beside Mercedes.
Mercedes playfully slapped Quinn's arm. "Jealous?" She asked, smiling disapprovingly over at Quinn.
"Yeah, Quinn." Puck mumbled, glancing her way. "You lost. Get over it." His attention was won over by Lauren again as she slapped the back of his head.
"Over what?" Quinn growled, turning her back to them all. "They are being discusting! No one needs to see that."
Mr. Schue frowned deeply. "Guys!" He yelled, getting everyone's attention. "Shh!" He whispered. "We're playing the...quiet game." He said quietly.
Everyone nodded quickly.
Mrs. Pillsbury clapped her hands happily. "Yay yay yay!" She sang.
"Mrs. Pillsbury is out!" Mike yelled excitedly.
"Mike is out." Mrs. Pillsbury said, smirking at him. Mr. Schue laughed, turning into the airport. "Ok, guys, you got your tickets?" She asked with a smile.
Everyone nodded.
Mr. Schue pulled into a parking spot, turning to look at them. "Well, you guys grab your bags and we'll be on our way." Mrs. Pillsbury announced, opening her door and grabbing her brown suit case off the floor of the van.
First Tina and Mike hopped out of the van, dragging their suit cases. Tina was dressed in black shorts and a grey top to match her grey suit case and carry on bag. Mike was wearing ripped jeans and a blue tee shirt and pulled a red suit case.
Quinn pushed off the van next, her red and white sun dress twisting in the wind. She walked to stand by Tina tugging her lime green suit case behind her. She swung her white backpack off her shoulder and hitched it over the handle of her suit case.
Mercedes rolled her eyes at Quinn, stepping off the van in her dark wash jeans and black tee shirt that said, "I LOVE NEW YORK!" in big bold letters. She stood by the van with her black suit case and her bright pink purse hanging from the crook of her arm.
Puck followed Lauren loyally off the van. He wore ripped jeans and a tight white tee shirt and pulled an army green suit case behind him. Lauren was wearing all black and had a black suit case.
Sam slipped off the van next wearing tight blue jeans and a red tee shirt pulling his navy blue suit case.
Santana slunk of the van next, following Sam to stand beside him. She was wearing a short black dress and had a white suit case paired with a white clutch just big enough for her phone.
Rachel and Finn slipped off the van after Santana holding hands. Rachel was wearing a white polo shirt, school girl plaid skirt and white tights. She pulled her pink suit case behind her and had a white backpack slung across her shoulder. Finn was wearing jeans and his football jersey and had his black suit case.
Mr. Schue pulled the ramp out so Brittany could help Artie off the bus before grabbing their suit cases from the front. She was wearing jeans with a pink shirt and pulled her purple "flower power" suit case and Artie's plain black one until she gave it to Mr. Schue who had offered to take Artie's suit case so she could push Artie's wheel chair.
"Alright guys, we all ready?" Mrs. Pillsbury asked the group. Everyone nodded. "Alright then, lets go!"
The group nuzzled themselves into their seats, dotted around the plane (only because it's cheaper). Two by two they'd chosen their seats.
Mr. Schue came around holding a sign that said, "You guys okay?" He smiled at the first pair he ran into, Tina and Mike. Tina nodded, smiling brightly. "We're great, Mr. Schue." Mike told him, patting his shoulder.
Mr. Schue laughed as he passed down another row of people and spotted Puck and Luaran a few rows back. He showed him the sign and Puck nodded indifferently, staring at Lauran who had pulled a bag of chips out of her bag and was already munching on them.
Mr. Schue snickered a bit, speeding down the line to find Santana sitting beside Sam who was smiling at her. Sam waved at Mr. Schue and Santana just laughed as she crossed her long legs.
Mr. Schue moved on and spotted Finn and Rachel sitting beside each other with Finn looking down disapprovingly. Mr. Schue frowned when he got close enough to see that Rachel was holding sheet music and humming along to the notes on the page. He took the music and gave her a "you'll get it back later" glare as her face fell. Finn laughed, taking Rachel's hand and kissing it.
Quinn was sitting in the seat behind Finn and she growled quietly when she saw this. Mercedes just rolled her eyes, already tuned into her iPod. She smiled at Mr. Schue when he passed by and sat quietly, humming along to the tune coming from her earphones.
Mr. Schue smiled at Artie and Brittany who were sitting a few rows back, holding hands. Artie smiled at Brittany who kissed Artie's cheek. Mr. Schue turned on his heal and went back to his seat beside Mrs. Pillsbury.
"The kids okay?" She asked with a smile.
Mr. Schue nodded, smiling out the window. This was the New Direction's year.
