*Got the idea for this on my commute to work today!
It was the first day back, after a great summer, and the Glee kids were excited to see each other again, and get back into the music.
"Alright class, hope you all had a great summer. But there will be no essay about it, no monologues, your assignment this week is to sing about your summer! You can do solos, duets, groups, whatever works to express yourself," Mr. Shue announced.
The students immediately began talking amongst themselves. Santana found her way over to Puck and Mike.
"Can you guys help sme with my number, I have an awesome idea, but I need some male vocals to back me up, and some epic break dancing," Santana asked and Mike and Puck excitedly agreed.
The next day in Glee, Santana got there before Rachel did and informed Mr. Shue her group was ready to "rock it" as she put it.
"Alright everyone, this is my tribute to summer…and having to come back to school. This is a fun old school song, hope you like it," Santana said.
The band started rocking the music, with Puck strumming the guitar like no one's business. Mike waited to the side, ready for his cue.
Santana started singing:
You wake up late for school
man you don't wanna go
You ask you mom, "Please?"
but she still says, "No!"
You missed two classes
and no homework
But your teacher preaches class
like you're some kind of jerk
Puck joined Santana on the chorus.
You gotta fight for your right to party
During the 1st Chorus, Mike entered and started wildly break dancing.
Santana smirked as she sang the next chorus, and jumped up and down.
You pop caught you smoking
and he said, "No way!"
That hypocrite
smokes two packs a day
Man, living at home is such a drag
Now your mom threw away
your best porno mag (Bust it!)
You gotta fight for your right to party
During the musical interlude, Mike stepped his dancing up a level, while Puck took the guitar solo. Santana tapped her foot and let them take the spotlight.
Don't step out of this house
if that's the clothes you're gonna wear
I'll kick you out of my home
if you don't cut that hair Santana ran her hands through Puck's hair at that line, and everyone elaughed.
Your mom busted in and said,
"What's that noise?"
Aw, mom you're just jealous
it's the Beastie Boys!
You gotta fight for your right to party
The class went wild as they finished, even Rachel.
"I have to say that was some great 90's music and Santana, your vocals were perfect for that number." Rachel said grinning, and Santana about fainted.
The only one not up congratulating everyone, was Brittany. She had an odd look on her face. She went over quietly and talked to Mr. Shue.
"Alright everyone, simmer down. Brittany has just asked to go next." Santana was surprised at this, but took her seat.
"Hey everyone, I am glad some people had a rockin good time this summer. I guess I did a lot of thinking during mine. So this song is about what I have thinking about. This song is from Lord Tubbington's and I's favorite movie." Brittany said.
Somewhere out there beneath the pale moonlight
Someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight
Santana felt an odd feeling..was it butterflies? She remembered watching American Tail with Brittany, and remembered how beautiful this song was, but it sounded even more beautiful with Brittany singing it.
Somewhere out there someone's saying a prayer
That we'll find one another in that big somewhere out there
And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star
And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky
Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we'll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true
And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star
And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky
Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we'll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true
The room was silent as Brittany finished. Santana didn't even try to wipe away her tears. She knew Brittany was singing to her. Her classmates finally applauded and Brittany smiled softly.
Santana stood up, and looked at Brittany, who gazed back. Santana found her way to the front of the room, and paused and then gave Brittany a gentle hug.
"Thank you B, that was beautiful. I want the dream to come true, I do. I'm just so scared…" Santana said, and realized she was starting to cry.
"Shh S, it's ok, I know you do. I am waiting, it's just hard…so hard." Brittany responded softly.
Neither girl was aware of the fact that the classroom had become dead silent.
"Umm..Mr. Shue…." Rachel Berry asked tentatively, only to be shushed by Quinn and Puck.
That seemed to snap Brittany and Santana out of it, but Santana whispered something in Brittany's ear before stepping back from the embrace.
"Mr. Shue can I talk to the class," Santana asked
