I walked into the school with my brother Stevie. Once we got inside, we met up with our friend Ashley Puckerman. I don't really have any other friends. It's hard to make friends when it's likely that you're about to die. I have a kidney disease that has pretty much rendered them useless. I'm pretty sure I'll be dead in a few weeks if I don't get a kidney. Still, I want to live my life to the fullest if it is about to end.
I wore what I usually wore: a hoodie, this one said Paris on it even though I've never, and sweatpants. I'm pretty self-conscious about my body because my disease causes some swelling.
We headed to the bulletin board and looked at a piece of paper.
"Hey, Glee Club is back." Stevie stated. There used to be a show choir here at school. Our older brother was one of the stars of it. He was just finishing college this year. We should sign up."
I watched as Ashley and Stevie signed their named on the piece of paper before handing me the pen.
"No thanks." I declared as I reattached it to the clipboard. "I'm not interested."
"It sounds really fun." Ashley told me. "I know that Noah loved being in Glee Club. He said that it taught him how to be a man."
"It probably would be fun, but I'd probably die before Sectionals." I pointed out cynically. "I don't want to get anyone's hopes up."
"Stace, you're going to get a new kidney, maybe even two." Ashley assured me. I kind of had a crush on her. I was a lesbian just like she was, but unlike her I'm not out and I'm also still a virgin. She really was the best friend that I could have.
"You don't know that." I declared. "Look guys, I'm all for having hope, but you know what they say. Hope breeds eternal misery. Besides, if I joined the Glee club, I'd just have more people caring about me, which I don't really want. I do not want a ton of people at my funeral."
"I really wish that you would stop being so bitchy and negative." Ashley told me. "When you first got this diagnosis, you kept talking about how you were going to not die."
"And look where that's got me." I told her. "Look, I love that you care about me, but I'm doomed and I don't want to sing about how Pharrell's 'Happy' when I'm obviously not."
So now I have Stacey and Stevie cast. I will no longer be accepting submissions for them. Here is the cast that I currently have
Ashley Puckerman, 16, Sophomore, Lesbian, Miley Cyrus
Stacey Evans, 15, Sophomore, Lesbian, Dove Cameron (made by Linneagb)
Laura Rossi, 16, Sophomore, Straight Laura Marano (made by joshiferjennoist)
Ana Campbell, 16, Sophomore, Bisexual, Nicole Anderson (made by angierae101)
Josephine Salvatore, 15, Sophomore, Straight, Lorde (made by Purpleshampoo)
Stevie Evans, 17, Junior, Straight, Alexander Ludwig (made by LocalXmusicXjellybeanX)
Kyle Preston, 16, Sophomore, Straight Sam Woolf (made by KlaineLoverForever07)
James Grant, 16, Junior, Straight Austin Butler (made by Calisurfingboy2)
So I currently have two spots on hold. That leaves me with a gay/bi guy that needs to be a minority and either a straight guy or gay/bi girl.
