The original Glee guys and girls are now in their senior year so who will continue on New Directions after they leave? This story is about a new girl joining glee club and about fitting into the tight-knit group and the new friendships she makes, especially with a select few in the glee club.
I'll be writing the story from different POVs, I don't have particular ones picked though. I'll probably write at least one scene from most of the students in glee club. A lot of the story though will be in the POV of Marcie. There will be occasional tweets from Marcie, these tweets are not real and neither is the Twitter account.
Note: This is set at the very beginning of Season 3 so there is no Trouble Tones yet. Not sure yet if there will be.
Disclaimer: I don't own Glee nor do I own any of the character's from the TV Show.
CHAPTER 1: New School Year
Marcie's POV
If you're gay in high school, you're likely to be bullied. It's a fact for most high schools across the US and the World. Marcie has never been bothered by that fact.
. MarcieRose Marcie
. 'Starting high school today. More excited than nervous.'
Marcie stares at the newest tweet on her timeline, at her own Twitter name. She's about to start as a freshman in high school and still she has such a childish Twitter name. "MariceRose" makes her think of a younger version of herself, she doesn't like still having that name. She could change it, she has that choice but for some small reason, she doesn't feel she should.
She flicks the little slider on the side of her mobile to make the screen fade silently to black and slides it into the pocket of her new jeans. She can hear her mum calling out to her, telling her that it's time to leave. She doesn't want to be late to her first day of high school.
With a nervous smile, she skips down the stairs and outside to the car where her mum is waiting.
Rachel's POV
This is going to be the year, Rachel thinks to herself as she walks into Mckinley High for her last year of high school.
That thought, of course, is referring to Glee Club and them winning Nationals. She knows that she must not be the only one thinking this, most of the members will be going to college next year so a win would be a nice way to end their high school lives.
"Good morning," greets her wonderful boyfriend.
Rachel smiles at Finn. He's standing by her locker, waiting for her to get there so he can see her before their classes start for the year. Rachel leans up and gives him a soft kiss.
"Mmm," she hums, "This is going to be the year."
"You're already thinking about Glee Club?" Finn laughs.
"Of course!" She beams, "And I have the perfect song ready to start off the new year!"
With another quick kiss, Rachel and Finn head off towards their separate classes.
As she walks along the corridor, Rachel goes over the song she had prepared for Glee Club in her head, very quietly humming it out loud. She walks right into another girl heading in the opposite direction.
The girl is short and obviously young. Her hair is dark brown, straight and only going down a little past her shoulders. The little amount of weight she holds makes her look like she hasn't eaten in a week. Rachel would expect to see a girl as skinny as the one in front of her in a Cheerios uniform.
"I-I'm sorry," the girl stutters.
Rachel smiles, "It's fine." Neither girl had dropped anything so no harm had been done.
The girl nods before walking off in a rush. Rachel easily comes to the conclusion that the girl is a freshman. She shrugs to herself and continues walking towards her first class.
Marcie's POV
Apart from being late to her first class, Marcie had gotten through her first day of high school without any trouble. She hadn't had any fun either though.
In two of her classes she had talked politely to the person sitting next to her and at lunchtime she had sat with a group of girls that were in her grade. She had managed to make any friends, she hadn't tried to. Everyone was starting to move into groups already but she hadn't found one that she felt she would fit into.
She's the last to run out of the last class for the day thanks to the teacher wanting to ask her a couple of questions. When she manages to get out of the classroom, she walks down the corridor, hoping not to get lost as she makes her way to where she thinks she'll find the exit. Her mum will already be waiting for her.
When she hears the sound of students talking, she follows it. It's in the direction she is already going in so all she does is walk a little faster. If this isn't the way to the exit, at least she can ask which way is. Marcie wasn't too sure how she managed to get herself lost. She never ever worked out how she always managed to get herself lost in new places. She just makes the assumption that it's a bad sense of direction.
Turning a corner she catches sight of the exit and a lot more students. As she walks towards the door, she walks past a classroom with an open door. Inside the classroom there's the girl she had accidently run into earlier, she's standing out front of a group of students, singing a song Marcie doesn't recognise.
All the students in the classroom look like they're most likely seniors. Marcie doesn't even think of asking what's happening. She walks outside to search for her mum.
One last thing, if in this story anything is written doesn't make sense for an American high school, please let me know. I'm Aussie and schools here are quite different. Thanks!
