During glee, Mr Shue said that we were going to have a special assignment next time we meet. Well, technically I shouldn't be there, but nobody says anything. Afterwards, I walked out with Sofia and Rory before quickly walking to Finn's car; it's so cold.

Lexie's POV

When the emo-ey girl started to come towards us, Finn told me that she's Blaine's sister. She is epic. Her boots were black DM's with pink lining and stitching on them. She got in the car. 'Hey, you sing really good. My name's Lauren by the way.'

'Um, hey. I like your shoes.'

'Yeah they're cool. And really comfortable. Here, feel them.' She lifted her leg and rested her foot on the seat of the car.

'Um, ok.' I slowly reached out. 'Ooh, they're soft!'

'I know!'

As soon as we got to Dalton Academy, Lauren got out of the car, and Blaine hugged her really tightly and spun her around. After, Lauren told me that it was their routine when they hadn't seen each other for a while. They are really close.

When we got to Finn's house, and all got out of the car, he turned to me. 'So, do you think you'll join the New Directions?'

'Who?' I looked at him, confused.

'The glee club. It's our official name.' He laughed.

'Oh ok. Then yeah, I will. I liked it. Now it's just a problem of getting everyone's names.'

'It'll be alright; they'll help you through it. Can I text all of them your number? That's how we usually communicate.'

'Um, yeah ok.'

'Cool. Everyone will send you a text with their name on; I'll help you know who it is.'

'Thanks Finn.' We walked into the house and into the living room.

'Lexie, come to my room in a bit, and we can do our homework.'

'Um, ok thanks.' I gave him a funny look.

'Hey, don't look at me like that; I know what you're like.'

'Fair enough.' I rolled my eyes.

'Hey Dad.' I sat next to him on the couch.

'Hi sweetie. How was your first day?' He hugged me.

'It was great. I joined Finn's glee club.'

Sofia's POV

I was sitting at my desk, pretending to do my homework, when my phone rang. It was Lauren. Great! 'Hey Lauren, everything ok?'

'Yeah, but I'm kinda nervous.'

'Why are you nervous?'

'Well, you know how I'm gonna go into school tomorrow and try to get kicked out?'

'Yeah...'

'What will my dad say? He might...do stuff.'

'He won't do anything Lauren. You're his daughter. His princess. Don't worry.'

'Are you sure?'

'Yes. What are you going to do?'

'I'm just going to try and break as many rules as possible.'

'Oh ok. Well, good luck then.'

'Thanks. I better go, Burt is calling for dinner.'

'Wait, you're round Finn's house?'

'Yeah, with Blaine and Lexie.'

'Kay. Speak later.' I rang off. That annoying existence better not get too close to Lauren. She will feel the consequences otherwise.

Lauren's POV

The next day, I had to decide what to wear. The two things that we are definitely not allowed to wear at Crawford Country Day school are jeans and hoodies. And make-up isn't liked. Neither are trainers. Private school rules are so easy to break when you want to, especially the uniform ones, because they are so strict. I chose my skinniest jeans and I borrowed one of Blaine's bright hoodies. I checked my timetable. We have English period two. The teacher is definitely the strictest of the school... I mean, she checks our belongings for 'contraband'. Like, seriously? I grabbed my Dad's cigarettes; they are gross, but oh well, they should get a quite a reaction.

I walked into school late and sat in my form room. It was hilarious; my tutor reeled back when I walked in. 'Miss Anderson, can I talk to you outside please?' She stood up as I rolled my eyes.

'Fine.' I followed her out, and she led me to the principal's office.

'As you can see, Lauren is not dressed according to the rules. And she has masses of make-up on.'

'I don't have that much on.' I frowned at the same time as Mr Johnson.

'Lauren, why are you dressed like that?' He asked.

'Because I wanted too. I wanted to be comfortable here for once. Is that a crime?'

'Yes, in this school it is. Mrs Morgan, you can go.' She walked out back to class. 'Where have you been for the past couple of weeks?'

'I don't know; wherever I felt like being. Mostly at the mall or the park.' My cell went off at that point. Loudly. I checked it and it was a text from Rory.

'So you're not in your uniform, you are being rude, you are skipping school, and when you are here, you not only have your phone, but it's on loud?'

'Erm, yeah, duh...' I trailed off.

'Unfortunately, I can't do much about this, other than give you detention. I will call home and tell your parents; and I will see you after school. Goodbye.'

After about an hour, as I was going into English, I got another text - luckily this time my phone was on silent - from my Dad. Oh gosh. 'You are in big trouble missy. I am picking you up from detention. Do not text back.' Oh that's just great. I text Rory back from earlier and then text Finn, asking him not to pick me up.

'Right! Everyone, bags open, on your desk.' The teacher is actually a nut. 'Lauren, you first.' She looked in my bag for a while before pulling out the cigarettes from the morning. I totally forgot about those. 'What are these Lauren?'

'Um, I don't know...'

'So you're lying to me? Go to the principal, with this note.' She handed the piece of paper to me and gave me my bag.

'Lauren! You're in here again? What is it this time?' I gave him the note. 'Cigarettes? Give me your bag. With this morning plus now, you are in big trouble. I'm calling your father.'

'No, please!' I didn't actually want him to stop, he can call my Dad; I just want to go to McKinley with Sofia, Rory, and the rest of the glee people.

'I have to Lauren; this has gone on for too long. You should have got excluded after you bought matches in a few weeks ago, and then didn't come into school. Just sit in that chair for now.' He picked up the phone. 'Your father is coming in to talk to me about your behaviour. He didn't sound too happy, so be prepared.'

Me and my Dad came of the office a few minutes after he got in there. I got permanently excluded. How bittersweet. Bitter because now I am in major trouble, and sweet, because now I can try get into McKinley. YEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!

'What were you thinking Lauren? Bunking off school for weeks at a time, taking matches in, not wearing your uniform. And the cigarettes? You're fifteen Lauren; how did you even get them?'

'Um...'I paused.

'Lauren, how did you get them?' He turned towards me and stopped.

'They're yours.' I looked down.

'So you're stealing too?' He started walking to the car again. 'Come on, we've got some things to sort out.' He opened the passenger door. 'In, now.'
