Chapter 1: Welcome Home
Matt was waiting for his best friend in the airport. Mike has been in Los Angeles filming a movie. When he told the Glee Club he got the role they were all proud. Matt looked out at the runway waiting for his best friend to come home. Matt sat down remembering the day Mike told glee club
Flashback
Everyone was in the choir room waiting for Mike and Matt to get in. Mike came in with his best friend right behind him.
"Ok guys I think are resident choreographer has some news for you" Mr. Shue said
Matt looked at his friend and smiled since he was the first Mike told. Mike smiled at him and everyone
"Well guys as you may know I was in LA for a dance competition, but that turned into something more. I got a role in the new step up movie. So I wanted to thank you guys for being there for me." Mike said
"Guys I have a number that will get us going" Mr Shue said
Everyone smiled at what the song was. Matt took the first song and sat Mike down in front. The New Directions got up and stood behind him
[Matt (with New Directions):]
(Ooo you make me live)
Whatever this world can give to me
It's you, you're all I see
(Ooo you make me live now honey
Ooo you make me live)
Ooh you're the best friend that I ever had
I've been with you such a long time
You're my sunshine and I want you to know
That my feelings are true
I really love you ([New Directions:] Ooo)
Oh you're my best friend
[New Directions:]
Ooo you make me live
[Matt:]

Back to you ([New Directions:] I still come back to you)
In rain or shine
You've stood by me boy
I'm happy at home ([New Directions:] I'm happy, happy at home)
You're my best friend
[New Directions:]

[Matt (with New Directions):]
Whenever this world is cruel to me
I got you to help me forgive ([New Directions:] Ooo)
(Ooo you make me live now honey
Ooo you make me live)
Oh, you're the first one
When things turn out bad
You know I'll never be lonely
You're my only one
And I love the things

[Blaine with New Directions:]
Oh, oh,

Mike smiled and hugged his friends. When Mike got home that night after dance and telling his friends he got the part. He smiled and screamed and sang
Bed! Bed! I couldn't go to bed.
My head's too light to try to set it down.
Sleep! Sleep! I couldn't sleep tonight.
Not for all the jewels in the crown.
I could have danced all night,
I could have danced all night,
And still have begged for more.
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things I've never done before.
I'll never know what made it so exciting.
Why all at once my heart took flight. I only know when he
Began to dance with me I could have danced,
danced, danced all night!
A few days later, Matt, Mike's parents were with Mike at the airport seeing him off.
"Well my baby boy has grown up and I cant wait to see his big movie debut" Mrs. Chang said smiling
"Yes he has Cristina, and Michael I realized what you meant by dance is a dream not some hobby" Mr. Chang
Mike hugged his parents and saw Matt standing their smiling . Matt walked over to him and smiled.
"Well buddy this is it" Matt said
"Yes it is, and Matt no matter what happens we'll still be friends right" Mike asked
"Yes we will" Matt said hugging his best friend.
"Flight 2346 bound for LA is now boarding"
Mike smiled and hugged his family and best friend for the last time for two months. Matt smiled and went to the window. Mike sat down knowing this was his first time flying. Matt started singing a song that they knew.
If I should die before I wake
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air
Oh
I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
Wish there was a way that I can make you understand
But how do you expect me
to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
[Chorus]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
No air, air - No
No air, air - No
No air, air - No
No air, air
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down for real
But somehow I'm still alive inside
You took my breath, but I survived
I don't know how, but I don't even care
So how do you expect me
to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
[Chorus]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air - (Uh - oh)
Can't live, can't breathe with no air - (No - No)
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep - (So Deep)
Tell me how you gonna be without me - (Without Me)
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe ( Breathe - No - No- aha)
It's no air, no air (No - No)
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No more
It's no air, no air
[Chorus x2]
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
You got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
No Air (No)
No Air (No - No)
No Air
No Air
No Air
Matt left the airport smiling knowing his best friend was having fun.
Back to Present
Matt was startled when he heard a familiar voice.
"Hey best friend" Mike said
"Mike" Matt screamed
"Hey buddy" Mike said smiling as Matt hugged him to death
"I missed you so much Michael Robert Chang"
"Woah, one how do you know my middle name, two I know you did you wouldn't stop texting me about how much you and the glee club miss me"
"Hey Mike whose your friend" a guy asked
"Chris this is my best friend Matt. Matt this is Chris my friend from set" Mike said
Matt turned around and looked and swore he was being replaced.
