Somebody to Love Chapter 1: I want to sing, a glee fanfic

Hello! ~khfan12 here! This is my first Glee fanfiction and It's with Sam and someone else! ^^

I hope you guys like it, I've been working hard on this for the past week. I'm going to spend at least a week on every chapter, that way I can correct what errors there are in them and that way I can be sure that nothing is missing. Chaper one has gone through about 3 drafts, and this is the final draft.

So...enjoy.

Discalimer: I do not own Glee. I only own my Character, Emily.

Glee: Thunder

01: I want to sing

A girl walked into the auditorium of William McKinley High School and to the stage. She smiled and looked around. She walked towards the stage and got on it. She faced where the seats are and her smile faded.

"You'll never be good at anything."

The bangs of her chin length light brown hair fell into her face as she looked down. She looked up and tucked some hair behind her ear. She cleared her throat and started talking to herself. "Now…I will sing 'Cosmic Love' by Florence and the Machine….Enjoy." She said, whispering the last part. She closed her eyes and imagined a microphone in front of her and an audience. The music started and she opened her mouth to sing.

"…A falling star fell from your heart
And landed in my eyes
I screamed aloud, as it tore through them
And now it's left me blind…"

In the hallway, Sam and Mercedes were talking, when Sam suddenly stopped walking. "Hey, you okay?" Mercedes asked. "Shh…Do you hear that?" Sam asked. The sound of someone singing floated out of the auditorium and Sam walked in.

"…In the shadow of your heart
And in the dark, I can hear your heartbeat
I tried to find the sound
But then it stopped and I was in the darkness
So darkness I became…"

"Who is that?" Sam asked. "Huh, I don't know. I think she might be new or something. I saw her in one of my classes earlier." Mercedes said.

"…No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart
I took the stars from my eyes and then I made a map
And knew that somehow I could find my way back
Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too
So I stayed in the darkness with you…"

Sam turned to Mercedes. "Whoever she is, she's good." Mercedes said. "Hey…I know this song." Sam said, starting to walk towards the stage. He started singing along with the girl, jumping in on the last few lines.

"…No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart
The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart…"

The girl stopped singing, panting, and was surprised to see Sam and Mercedes, realizing that Sam was the voice she heard singing with her. She blushed and asked them a question. "W-Who are you?" Her voice was uneasy. Mercedes smiled and stepped forward. "Mercedes Jones. That was you singing right?"

The girl nodded slowly.

"You're amazing!" Mercedes grinned. The girl jumped off of the stage and walked over to Sam and Mercedes. She smiled. "Thanks. I'm Emily. Emily Rae." She held her hand toward Mercedes and Mercedes shook it. "Nice to meet you Emily." She said, smiling. Emily turned to Sam and held out her hand. "And you are?" She asked. Sam shook her hand. "Sam Evans." He said. Emily tilted her hand. "Oh? Are you the Sam that doesn't like green eggs and ham?" Emily said with a grin on her face. Sam laughed. "Yeah, I guess you can say that." He said with a smile on his face. "Hey Emily, you should totally join Glee club." Mercedes said.

"Really? You guys have a Glee Club here?" Emily asked. "Yeah, why wouldn't we?" Mercedes asked. Emily shrugged. "I dunno. Some schools don't. Some have show choir instead. My old school did and I was in it there." She said. "You were in show choir?" Sam asked. Emily nodded. "Some of the girls sang like Christina Aguilera, Some like Amy Lee, Kelly Clarkson and Katy Perry. Some of the guys sang like Ne-yo, Nelly and other male singers I won't name for their sake. Some of the girls were total bitches as well, and it was horrible having to be in the same show choir as them." Emily said, a grimace on her face. "Really? Didn't you have any friends?" Mercedes asked. "Oh sure, two of them. They were awesome. One of them was like the sister I've never had. Her name is Raven Williams and she was an awesome singer. She was one of the few girls that had a soprano voice that sang like Beyonce. There was also Brett, who was my best guy friend. He had a kind of…Ne-yo voice, mixed with a tenor voice. They were my best friends." Emily said, smiling. "Did you have a boyfriend?"

Emily froze, feeling a sinking feeling in her chest, one that she hasn't felt since about a month ago. She heard someone call her name, and it felt far away. Everything felt so far away, so…cold. She wrapped her arms around herself and bit her lip, feeling a tear escape. "No…I'm not ever going to go back to that time…I won't ever let that happen again…I…I don't want-" Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted. "Emily!"

She opened her eyes to see Sam holding onto her shoulders, both he and Mercedes were looking at her with concern clearly on her face. "Um…S-Sorry. I…" Emily started, but couldn't find the words. "Hey, sorry I asked, okay? If you didn't want to talk about it…you could have said something." Sam said, a blush appearing on his face, showing his embarrassment. Emily shook her head. "It's…it's okay. It was my fault. I thought of a bad memory. Don't worry about it, okay Sam?" Emily said, giving Sam a smile. Emily turned to Mercedes. "You asked me about joining your Glee club?" She asked. "U-um…yeah. Do you want to go audition now? We were on our way to Glee right now." Mercedes said. "Yeah! I have another song that I would love to sing." Emily said, smiling. "Okay, come with us Rae and we'll introduce you to the Glee club." Mercedes said, hooking her arm with Emily's. Sam smiled and hooked his arm in Emily's other.

"Mr. Shue, this is Emily. She would like to audition for Glee club." Mercedes said. Mr. Shue smiled. "Okay. Nice to meet you Emily. Show us what you got." He said. Rachel stood up. "Mr. Shue, do we really need her to audition?" She asked. Mr. Shue nodded and Rachel groaned, sitting back down. Emily smiled, watching Sam go sit by Mike and Mercedes sit in a corner. "Hello. I am Emily Rae and here is my audition song for your club. I hope you like it." Emily said, flashing a smile. The music started playing, and the words started to flow from her mouth.

"I've got it all, but I feel so deprived
I go up, I come down and I'm emptier inside
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing
And why can't I let it go

There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more
Than wanting more

I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly
Here in this moment I'm half way out the door
Onto the next thing, I'm searching for something that's missing

I'm wanting more
I'm always waiting on something other than this
Why am I feelin' like there's something I missed...

The members of the club started clapping and cheering. Mr. Shue stood, clapping. "Well Emily, welcome to Glee club." He said, smiling. But what they didn't notice, was the glare on Rachel's face.
