Chapter 1: Invisible

No one made me feel like she did. I could bring an audience to its feet with one song; I had Finn following me around with a flick of my hair. When she walked by, if she wasn't insulting me, she wasn't seeing me. I almost longed for her insults, man hands, treasure trail, hobbit. I felt hobbit was more of pet name than an insult; it made me melt inside.

It seemed the Glee kids were getting closer, which meant her too. For me, it was an end to her insults, and instead she just pretended I didn't exist, that I was invisible. I couldn't do the same to her, when she wasn't glaring at me I saw this girl transform into a beauty beyond compare. Her beautiful golden-brown skin and long dark hair, long legs that seemed to go on forever, and her smile which could light up a room. A smile we didn't get to see too very often, especially me.

When I sang in glee she would stare off into space as if there was nothing going on in front of her and she was completely bored. If we had to interact at all she acted like she didn't know me and ignored me as much as possible. Like now, Mr. Shue had just assigned us all duet partners randomly. I hated when he did things randomly, it never worked out for me. I, of course, had to sing a duet with Santana. She didn't bat an eye when he said my name and hers together. She grabbed sheet music out of her backpack along with an orange highlighter and started working on it.

Mr. Shue let out the class 15 minutes early so we could all talk with our duet partners about what song we would be singing. Santana didn't move, she just sat looking at something on her phone ignoring everyone, most especially me. I rolled my eyes and got up and walked over to her. Before I could open my mouth and utter a word she shoved sheet music at me, "You are the highlighted part, practice on your own." She never looked up from her phone.

I took the sheet music, "Hungover" by Kesha. "Santana, this isn't a duet."

She looked up at me for a moment and glared, "It is now Hobbit, if you mess this up, I will mess you up." With that she grabbed her bag and stormed out of the room. Other gleeks were looking at me, but I had nothing to say, her behavior wasn't my fault. Instead I put in my head phones and brought up Kesha on my phone so I could get acquainted with the song. Before I left school for the day I was able to procure Santana's phone number from Brittany. Quinn had tried to get her attention so she wouldn't give it to me but I was able to quickly snatch it before Quinn was successful.
