Sam Evans was walking down the halls at McKinley when he saw yet another kid being shoved against the lockers. I mean, this wasn't exactly a new thing at McKinley. After all, nearly all of the Glee Club has had the very same thing happen to them. However, this year was hopefully going to be a new start for them. Last year they may not have won Nationals, but they came pretty darn close to it. After all, if it wasn't for Rachel and Finn's unprofessionalism, they might've actually won.

Anyway, there was something about this kid that made Sam more than notice him. He looked like the new kid, but not in the "Freshie" type of way, more in the "I-just-transferred-from-somewhere-in-the-South" type of way. Sam could relate to that, seeing as the very same thing had happened to him the previous year. He also remembered that the Glee Club had helped him through the difficulties of moving to a new school, and he wanted the same for this kid. He dropped his books and hurried over to help him.

"Hey, the name's Sam, Sam Evans," he said as he helped the tall, skinny, brown-haired boy up, "what's yours?"

"Thanks, mine's Christopher, Christopher Jones," the boy replied, relieved that somebody was actually there to help him.

"I haven't seen you around, are you new here?" Sam asked, all ready knowing the answer to the question.

"Yeah, I just moved here from Mississippi. My dad got a job offer up here he just couldn't refuse, so now we live here. Hey, you're the guy who used to be the Quarterback until you got hurt last year, aren't you? It's really nice of someone like you to help out 'the new kid.'"

"Well, I know what it's like to be the new kid on the block around here. It was the least I could do." Sam said with a smile.

"Hey, um, aren't you also in the Glee Club? I hear you guys went to Nationals last year? That's amazing!" Christopher said, trying to keep the conversation going.

"Yeah. You know, for a 'new kid' you sure know a lot about what's gone on around here." Sam replied, suspicious.

"Let's just say… I've done my research," he countered, trying to relieve Sam's suspicions, "Oh, idea! Could I like come to Glee Club with you? I would like to check you guys out, and it'd be nice to actually sit with somebody I at least know while I'm there."

"Uh… sure. You can come with me."

"Awesome! Thanks so much." he replied happily as he followed Sam to the meeting.

"Welcome to the first Glee Club meeting of the year!" Will Schuester, coach of the Glee Club, shouted.

The hoots and hollers from the kids began to fill the room.

"Okay, okay! Let's get started," he shouted over the noise.

The kids gradually began to quiet down.

"So this year we have a goal. Winning Nationals."

Shouts once again filled the room, and quickly died down.

"Now we came SO close last year, and I know if we work really hard, and hopefully get some new voices, we can take first place!" he said, convinced they can pull it off.

The whole room shouted in agreement.

"Speaking of getting some new voices… I have something I'd like to say," Sam announced as he got up to face the Glee Club, "There's somebody I brought with me today. Christopher?"

Christopher just sat there in his chair, paralyzed. He couldn't believe Sam just said his name or that he wanted him to stand up. And what was up with that "Speaking of getting some new voices" thing? He couldn't seriously be suggesting that he…

"Christopher? Come on, stand up so everybody can see you!" Sam said encouragingly.

He finally worked up the courage to stand up there, next to Sam.

"H-hi everyone. I-I'm C-Christopher…" he said nervously.

"Christopher is here to check us out; he asked to come with me today. I was also hoping that maybe he would consider joining us?" Sam inquired.

"M-me? But Sam, I can't sing." Christopher replied, still shocked that Sam would even suggest such a thing.

"Come on, just try. I bet you can do it. I'll even sing with you." Sam said reassuringly.

"Um, okay…"

"Hey, Christopher, if you need some help thinking of a song to do, why don't you do a song that tells us something about you or an experience you've gone through? That's our 'theme' for the week, and it'd help us learn something about our possibly new member," Mr. Schue suggested.

"Okay, thanks… Mr. Schuester, isn't it? I think I have the perfect song. It's a little bit of both of those things. It's sang by a female artist, but I like the lyrics. Plus, I think it's a good song for you guys. Okay, here goes…"

He walks over to Sam and whispers the song name to him. Sam goes over to pick up his guitar and begins playing. They both begin to sing.

You, with you words like knives

And swords and weapons that you use against me

You, have knocked me off my feet again

Got me feeling like I'm nothing

You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard

Calling me out when I'm wounded

You, pickin' on the weaker man

Everyone begins singing/dancing along.

Well you can take me down

With just one single blow

But you don't know, what you don't know

"Wow, he's actually good. You know, for a nerdy, suspiciously gay-seeming, new kid," Santana whispers to Brittany.

Someday, I'll be living in a big old city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean?

Sam and Christopher continue singing until the song is finished. Immediately, everyone in the Glee Club starts cheering.

"Wow! That was amazing!" Christopher exclaimed.

"Yes it was! Wonderful job Christopher, we could definitely use someone like you in the Glee Club. Would you join us?" Mr. Schue inquired.

"You should join man, you were amazing!" Sam said in agreement.

"O-okay, I will!" Christopher replied with a huge smile on his face.

"Awesome! Okay guys, let's get to work!" Mr. Schue said as both Sam and Christopher took their seats.

Okay so this is my very first FanFiction ever. I just had to write it for Glee and on Sam Evans, because I'm a huge Gleek right now and he's my favorite character by far. The story is supposed to be set at the start of what would be season 3 of Glee.

I know that everyone is saying that Overstreet won't be on it, so I had to write this even more. If he really isn't, this is kind of my way of "putting him in season 3" so to speak. I also decided to add new characters, because they are going to in the actual show anyway.

I hope Glee fans, especially those who like Sam, enjoy my story. This is only the very first chapter, and I expect to be having 5 total. I have more written, but I'm waiting to see how people like it before I put up any more of this.

I know it's kind of slow right now, it's really only the beginning. I know I basically just introduced this new kid, and that's pretty much it. There's a reason I wrote this the way I did, which you'll see if I decide to put up more (which I most likely will). The story gets much better, trust me!

Oh, and for those who like other characters on Glee, more of the characters will be introduced later on! The main focus of the story will be Sam for the most part though. Well anyway, I'm rambling, so I'd like to finish by thanking people who review my story in advance and by saying I hope you guys like it!

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Glee or any songs that I put the lyrics of in my story. Nor do I own any references to anything in previous episodes of Glee that may be included in my writing. If I did own Glee there would be A LOT more Sam, and everybody wouldn't be so mean to him all of the time!
