I was in the choir room getting some songs around for Glee practice tonight when a beautiful young woman walked into the room and knocked on the door. "Hello? Are you Mr. Schuester?" she asked.

"Yes, I'm Will Schuester." I answered, standing up from the piano where I had been throwing together some chords for my own song. "Can I help you?" She was wearing a red frilly blouse, a pencil skirt, and some sensible red high heels.

She introduced herself as Gianna Blackburn, and said the Figgins had alerted her of the assistant directing job I had practically begged him to give out. I extended my hand to her, and she set her dainty little hand in mine, though she had a sort of tough handshake. I went into my office, grabbed an application off my desk, quickly scribbled my phone number and 'Call me anytime' in the corner, hoping I wasn't being to forward and handed her the application.

We made a little small talk before she left. I realized that I had to get ready for my first hour Spanish class, but I waited around the choir room, hoping that Ms. Blackburn would come back, even just to talk. I should have offered for her to fill out the application in here, but I didn't want to seem like a creeper.

I sat in my office, hoping that my student teacher had already started class. If he asked me where I was, I could just say that I was in my office, trying to get over a stomachache. I heard a knock on the door and instantly knew that it was Gianna. I smiled and pretended that she had surprised me. "Oh, Ms. Blackburn." I said, opening the door. "You're quite a fast one."

She giggled and then said "I'm just really excited about the job." I laughed too, and turned around to put her application at the top of my non-existent stack of others. I told her I'd look it over, but I knew I was already going to give her the job. I asked for a business card so that I would have her number to give her a call, since she seemed to give me my number back.

She walked out of the office, and then so did I. I practically ran to my Spanish class, and taught for the rest of the day, before Glee. At the end of school, I walked to the choir room thinking about Gianna and trying to figure out a way to ask her to dinner. Everyone but Finn was there, so I wasn't really worried about where he was. He was most likely in the bathroom, like always. "Puck, have you seen Finn?" I asked his best friend.

Instead of Puck though, I heard Kurt, Puck's boyfriend. "Finn was showing one of the new students around today."

"She's smoking hot." Puck threw in. Kurt gave his boyfriend a look and then turned away. "Babe, come on. You have to admit she was. And you know I'm only into you now."

Just then, Finn and the new student came in the door. He introduced her to everyone and then us to her. Her name was Caprice. "Welcome Caprice, will you be joining us regularly?" I asked as she took Rachel's usual seat beside Finn.

"Uh, yeah. I think I will." She said shyly, looking at Finn. I smiled and then turned to my white bored to write this week's theme. "Oops, forgot the sheet music, hold on." I said, walking into my office. 'Now where did I put those?' I asked myself, searching my desk. 'Oh, that's right. I was holding them when Gianna came in.'

I found the sheet music, and I walked out of my office, noticing Gianna talking to either Finn or Caprice. I decided that I needed to talk to her, although I suddenly had butterflies in my stomach. "Ms. Blackburn, what are you doing here?"

"Oh, just talking to Caprice; my younger sister." She replied.

"Oh, well that's good." I turned to Caprice, "Will your mom be picking you up?"

"Um, no actually. See, my mom, our mom, is dead. Gianna is my legal guardian." She responded quietly.

I frowned, not wanting to upset her. "I'm so sorry."

"It's alright Mr. Schuester. You didn't know." Caprice whispered.

I frowned some more, but then I took Gianna over to the side and asked if she'd like to stay for practice. She said she would, and then took a seat in the back. I then realized that this was a mistake, since my stomach was turning and twisting into knots just at the thought of her.

I turned back to the kids and said, "Well, this week we were going to do songs that reminded us of our parents, but I'm sure no one is up to this now." I looked at Caprice who was wrapped in Finns arms. "So, how about we do love songs? Kurt, Puck, do you two have one in mind that you would like to perform for us?"

Kurt smiled, but Puck just looked at me like this was the worst thing I could do to him at the moment. "Yes, actually we do. It's called 'Because You Loved Me' by Celine Dion." Puck looked so angry as he got up on the other side of the classroom, but as soon as he began to sing to Kurt, you could tell that he meant every word. Of course, they ended their song with a kiss.

Everyone clapped and cheered. Other kids got up and sang songs except for Caprice. I didn't say anything but I wasn't sure if it was because of what I said, or because she didn't sing. Finn ended up singing a song with Artie. It wasn't really a 'love song' per se, but it worked.
