Chapter two: Spies undercover
(Rebecca walked nervously into the faculty lounge, her folder tucked neatly under her arm which Figgins had given her. It took her all she could muster not to giggle at the principal as he waffled on about the budget cuts and that`s why he was bringing in a substitute to save money. She looked around the room at the different teachers but didn't recognise any_
"Must be extras" she thought as she balanced her tray, which contained her lunch in her brown paper bag and slowly again looked around the room until she caught sight of Shannon Bieste, sat at one of the tables looking through what looked like a play by play
""Bingo" Rebecca thought as she crossed across and walked to the table of the football coach who glanced at the young woman curiously
"Hey" Rebecca smiled at Shannon "I was just wondering if there were any tables spare. I just came here today, I`m a new substitute teacher". Shannon looked her up and down then nodded
"Figgins said something about a new sub starting today. You can sit here nobody else will be eating here, well my friend was but he`s running late. Probably got stuck behind with one of his students" Shannon muttered something under her breath but Rebecca couldn't hear as her heart was beating wildly and she couldn't eat the sandwich she had just placed in her mouth
"Surely I couldn't be that lucky" she thought to herself. She gave a slight cough as Shannon looked at her curiously
"Sorry" Rebecca smiled "So your friend does he work here?" she looked at Shannon who nodded
"We haven't really been friends that long I only started at the school in September I replaced the existing football coach but people say he wasn't that good" Shannon shrugged "We actually got off on a bad footing but I believe that was the influence of another colleague. But he did something to me that I will never forget" she smiled "And since then we have been firm friends. He`s had a few problems this term and he doesn't have that many friends really" she sighed "I shouldn't really be telling you this" she glanced at Rebecca who smiled
"Wont tell a soul" she nodded "Us newbies have to stick together"
"Ah here he is now" Shannon glanced across to the door as Rebecca felt her heart sour as she saw the figure of Will Schuester walk into the faculty lounge, but his head was bent and he didn't have the confident walk that Rebecca recognised him though. He sat down next to Shannon, just across from Rebecca and it took all Rebecca`s energy not to swoon at the sight
"If I faint then its game over. I must keep my emotions in check" Rebecca thought taking in a big suck of breath then looked up again from the floor to see Shannon talking to Will
"... doesn't she know you don't want to go to her party" Shannon sighed
"I told her it would be best if I didn't go. It's bad enough hearing about it here then having to see it with my two eyes." Will shrugged as he took a bite of his cookie. He then for the first time noticed Rebecca and his eyes grew wide in surprise
"Oh shoot I forgot. Will this is Rebecca, she just joined the faculty today new substitute teacher, Rebecca this is Will Schuester Spanish teacher and Glee club director" Shannon introduced the pair as Will leant across and shook Rebecca's hand who shivered at the firm handshake. She gave a shy smile back
"Welcome to Mc Kinley Rebecca" Will smiled "It's a pretty friendly school not many people to worry about but just for your first few days keep your guard. Who are you subbing I haven't heard nobody is ill" he glanced at Shannon who gave a sharp shrug
"Oh erm the English teacher Miss Mason. English is my major "Rebecca replied looking down at the ground. "Glee club director, I quite like to sing but I`m no good at it" she replied with a slight laugh
"Well why don't you pop along one day after class and see for yourself how we run things. If some of the kids give you a hard time" Will said thinking of Santana and possibly Puck but knowing Puck he would probably develop an attraction towards Rebecca. Rebecca nodded and was about to speak when a tall blonde haired woman walked into the room and across to their table
"William, you" she spoke to Will and Shannon then turned her attention to Rebecca "And who are you?" she glared towards Rebecca
"Sue this is Rebecca she is just subbing for a while. Please go easy on her Sue" Will pleaded
"You know me Will I don't go easy on anyone" Sue started to speak when Rebecca stood up
"I have to go my class is starting soon. Nice to meet you Will, Shannon" she smiled at the two of them ignoring Sue as she crossed across to the entrance of the faculty lounge and exited. As she left the room she leant against the wall breathing slightly hard. Sue was one of the faculty that she didn't want to meet just yet as she was very observant. Rebecca looked up and down the corridor which was filled with bustling children heading to their classes as Rebecca started to head to hers as she noticed a tall boy staring blankly at her
"Are you ok?" Charlotte replied as she spoke through the communicator they had given Rebecca. Rebecca nodded it was the last lesson of the day and she had noticed from the register she had a few of the glee clubbers in, one which included a certain Rachel Berry
"Apart from Sue that is. She came in the faculty lounge at lunch and I thought she was going to inquire so I bolted. Luckily Shannon and Will didn't seem to mind" Rebecca blushed
"And is Will as good looking off screen as he is on screen" Lorna smirked popping up between Charlotte
"Better" Rebecca smiled with a far off look in her eyes "He`s kinda dreamy" she sighed. Lesley looked at her watch and nudged Charlotte
"Won`t class be starting" Charlotte replied as Rebecca looked at the clock in the room and nodded
"Look" Lesley replied "Maybe you should get one of the glee clubbers to fill you in on the Emma and Will situation. All you know is from what we have seen on the TV so maybe things have got better. Just ask one of them" she smiled
"Oh" Rebecca remembered about Shannon telling Will about the Christmas party Emma was hosting and was about to tell the four girls when she heard Rachel Berry talking outside the door
"Better go" she replied as she placed the communicator in her drawer on her desk and waited as the students filed in. Rebecca glanced and noticed that Rachel, Brittany and Quinn were in the class. Rebecca thought that Rachel would be the best one to ask even if Brittany had seen the Toucha Toucha incident she would have probably forgot the next day and Quinn had her own share of problems last year, Rebecca set them some work then just walked around the room checking on their work. There wasn't that many troublemakers in the class and so they worked peacefully despite Brittany's complaints. At the end of the lesson they left the room but Rachel stopped behind
"I know English isn't my strongest subject but after all you are only a substitute there is no reason to keep me behind" Rachel started to say but Rebecca interrupted her
"I was speaking to Mr Schuester at lunch time and found out he runs the glee club. I just wanted to know more about it that`s all. He said along with a boy called Finn" Rebecca said questionably at Rachel as it would sound weird if Rebecca knew his name
"Finn..." Rachel said sadly but then pulled herself together "Yes Finn and I are the co captains. We have just won sectionals so next year we will be going to Regional's those are different competitions and we are hoping to go to Nationals this year" Rachel carried on talking as Rebecca half heard Rachel talking about what a big star she was hoping to become in the future almost as big as her many idols
..." I feel concerned though. Mr Schuester doesn't seem to be himself this term. I believe it's because his ex girlfriend just got married to her boyfriend. She was supposed to come to Sectionals with us but she couldn't come, I caught her giving Mr Schuester a good luck kiss on the cheek but it didn't work we tied"
"Wait" Rebecca stopped Rachel but then managed to hold herself in. That sounded a bit too excited as a normal sub teacher wouldn't act like that
"Anyway I better go to glee rehearsal. Practising Christmas songs to give to the homeless. That`s what we do" Rachel replied as she left the room. Waiting till Rachel had gone Rebecca got her communicator out of the drawer and switched it on. Only Charlotte was in the room and it looked as if she was watching Castle
"Charlotte" Rebecca whispered as Charlotte picked up her communicator
"Did you get anymore information" Charlotte whispered
"Looks like Emma WAS meant to go to Sectionals but Carl wouldn't let her. Rachel told me she gave Will a good luck kiss on the cheek" Rebecca smiled
"Yeah that happened while you were out cold" Charlotte replied "But at least Rachel is keeping a close interest but knowing Rachel she will be involved in something again" they shared a laugh
"I don't know what to do about sleeping arrangements and I don't really want to sleep at the school don't want to sleep on some mattresses" Rebecca murmured. Charlotte thought for a moment and then nodded looking satisfied
"Come to where we told you to come before hand, the janitor's closet. I have something to show you" Charlotte replied before hanging up. Rebecca wondered what she meant by that but she picked up her messenger bag and headed out of the classroom door making sure none of the staff saw her. She walked to the janitors closest, opened the door and closed the door behind her which shut with a creak and a thud.
Next time
Rebecca explores her new surroundings more and meets Emma for the first time as she tells Rebecca about her wedding. But will Rebecca keep her cool or not. Meanwhile Rachel is curious about Rebecca and chats to the other glee clubbers about it
Hopefully chapter three won't be as long as chapter two in waiting time. Again I can only apologise for that and hope you will review this chapter.
