Chapter 4.
Tina looked at Artie, what could it be? She took the box and opened the lid, inside the box was a silver necklace, on the chain was a cresent moon, with a small five point star attached to it.
"Artie… it's beautiful…" She gasped, tears filling her eyes.
"Turn the moon over. " He said, smiling at her.
Tina turned the moon over to see the back engraved with writing. It read:
Tina, I love you more than the stars above, Love Artie x
A tear trickeled down Tina's face, she looked up at Artie. "I love you. " She whispered, reaching across and taking his hand.
"I love you too Tina. " Artie replied, placing his other hand ontop of hers.
She giggled nervously "So, shall we order something? " Tina asked, looking at the menu.
"Sounds good to me. " He replied, grabbing a menu and scanning the different foods. "I think I might have the Pasta in Tomato Sauce, what about you? "
"I think that sounds quite tasty, I think I'll have the same. " she replied, smiling.
The next day at McKinley High.
"I think this trip is going to be amazing… don't you Finn?... Finn? " Rachel said, as her and Finn were walking into school.
"Huh? What? Oh sorry…" Finn said, distracted.
"What's up? "She asked, with a concerned look on her face.
"It's Kurt, he's about to be thrown in the dumpster again. " Finn said, pointing over at the Football Team gathered round a rather unhappy Kurt.
"Right, well let's go help him. " Rachel ordered, walking swiftly over to the football team, shortly followed by Finn.
"Excuse me? " she asked, tapping a 6ft tall football on the shoulder, having to stand on her tip-toes to do so. "What do you think you are doing? "
Kurt looked at her in surprise. The football team turned around to look at the tiny girl standing infront of them.
"What does it look like we are doing? " The football player asked, folding his arms.
"It looks, to me, like you're about to make a very big mistake. " she replied, smirking slightly at how good her comeback was.
"Are you some kind of idiot? Do you not know who we are? I think you're the one that's made the mistake, 'cuz you'll be joining this loser in the dumpster if you're not caref-"
"Hey, back off dude. Don't talk to her like that. " Finn interupted, standing between Rachel and his team mate.
"Oh look who it is, Mr I'm in Glee Club but I'm still on the football team. " the football player said, getting closer to his face. "You're a loser, just like all of the other people in your stupid Glee Club. "
"You need to stop pushing my friends around. " Finn ordered, stepping away.
"Oh yer? Well who's gonna stop me? " he asked, turning around and grabbing Kurt.
"We are. " Rachel and Finn said in unison, folding their arms.
"Ha! You and what army? " he asked, picking Kurt up.
"This army. " A voice said from behind Finn.
Mercedes stepped out from behind Finn and folded her arms. A few seconds later, Tina wheeled Artie over to where they were standing.
Kurt smilied slightly at the sight of his friends.
Mike and Matt followed, standing next to Finn. Shortly followed by Brittany.
"Leave him alone. " A voice shouted in the distance. After a few moments, Quinn, Puck and Santana walked over.
"This ends now. " Puck said firmly. "Leave us alone, and we won't bother you… deal? "
The football players thought for a moment.
"Deal… just don't get in our way again. " One said, and walked off, the group of players followed.
Kurt stared in disbelief. "How… what… why? Thank you. " he stuttered, turning to the group. "That was brilliant. " he added.
"Ah no worries, we don't let anyone push our friends around. " Tina said, walking over and hugging Kurt.
The group walked into school together.
After a long day at school, the last lesson finally appeared, Spanish. Everyone was fairly excited about Spanish, obviously not because of the work, but because of the field trip.
"Right, now today's lesson is going to be devoted to explaining what's going to be happening on our field trip. So I want you all to listen closely, because otherwise you won't know what's going on. " Mr Schuester said, sitting on the edge of his desk. "We have an itinerary, that we are going to use so listen up. " he added pulling out a sheet of paper.
"Tomorrow morning, we will meet here at 6:30. "
The class groaned in dissapointment.
"Yes, I know it's early, but just deal with it. Then from here we will travel to the airport on the school bus. When we get there we will check in, and then fly to England. We will land at Birmingham Internation Airport and then travel to our hotel, which is the Paragon Hotel. That's the first day all sorted. There will be two teachers on this trip, that's myself and Miss Pillsbury. "
"Make that three teachers Shue. " A voice said from outside the door.
Sue Sylvester popped her head around the door. "Figgins said he wants three people, so I said I'd do it. "
The entire class turned to look at Sue, their faces dropped… this was not good. Kurt looked at Mercedes.
"What are we gonna do M? " he whispered across to Mercedes.
Mercedes just shrugged her shoulders.
"Right… well… right. " Mr Schuester said, looking dissapointed. "Right guys, make sure you're here nice and early tomorrow, we do not want to miss our flight. "
The bell rang out and all the students left the classroom. Mr Schuester walked straight out and into Principal Figgins' office.
"Figgins…what is going on? How could you let Sue come on that field trip? " He demanded, pacing the floor.
"My hands are tied Shue, it's a legal requirement, and Sue offered to do it. " Figgins replied, sitting back in his chair behind his crowded desk.
"But… she'll ruin it! " Will said, turning to face Figgins. "This is ridiculous! "
