Glee does not belong to me... just this story...
The Power of Madonna
Sunday night I'm at Jesse's house after a fun date. We went to an amusement park in Akron and after that we went to his house, and we are currently in his bedroom, making out.
"I really love kissing you" Jesse says between kisses.
"So do I" I tell him while kissing his neck.
"I don't want to pressure you, but every day is getting difficult to restrain myself from wanting to move forward with you" he says after coming for some air.
"I know what you mean… but I'm not ready yet" I say before kissing him again. "But I think there are something's we can do" I say whit a seductive look on my face.
"Really?" he says with tempting eyes.
"Totally" I says nodding my head, so he jumps in, making me laugh.
Monday at school the girls from glee were sitting in the choir room on our free period, when Lila says:
"Can I asks you guys something private?" she asks nervously.
"Yes, you should move to Israel" Santana says making Quinn and Brittany laugh.
"Santana, that's mean" I tell her, making her roll her eyes.
"It's about dating" Lila says after sitting in front of us. "Not that I'm dating anyone. We all know that Finn and I are no longer an item, even though sometimes he agreeds to make out with me behind the bleachers. So let's just says I'm seeing someone. Let's just say hypothetically we went to my place after going out and because my parents weren't home we move to my room and started making out. It was fun and erotic, and then he said 'We should do it' and I say I wasn't ready, what if then he got really crappy and left and let my sad and kind of depressed?" she asks us after that long introduction. Wow she really talks a lot.
"Would you please stop talking, you're grossing out my baby" Quinn says.
"I just wanna be ready. I know I'm getting older, and thinks are gonna happened someday. But, how do I stop a guy from getting mad at me for saying no?" Lila asks us we a desperate look on her face.
"Just do what I do. Never say 'NO'" Santana says making me roll my eyes.
"Totally. I mean… what's the worst that can happen?" Brittany says before directing her eyes to Quinn. "I'm sorry Quinn"
"Well, girl, don't ask me. The last guy I liked was the mayor of gay town" Mercedes says, and I kind of feel bad for her "I can way for a guy to be mad at me for saying no" she says making me regret feeling bad for her.
"We just have to accept that guys don't care about our feelings" Tina says. "Like the other day I was walking with Artie, and he was going on and on about me changing myself to be with him"
"That's got to stink" I say to her. "But guys, that's not true. I mean, yeah some guys are idiots. But not all of them" I tell then trying to reason with them.
"And how would you know" Santana says.
"I-I don't… I just think we can't judge every guy because some have treated you badly" I say coming out with an excuse.
"Yeah… right" Santana says being suspicious.
"Hey, guys" Mr. Schue says coming towards us. "I'm sorry to interrupt your little sorority, but I couldn't help but overhear… Are you really having… that much… boy trouble?" he asks a little surprise.
"You wouldn't understand Mr. Schue. You're a guy" Quinn says.
"Well, then maybe you should talk to someone else about it" he suggests. "Like Miss Pillsbury"
"I try that" Lila says. "But it didn't work out at all" she says before the bell rang.
So I grab my bag and went after Lila. I find her at her locker getting some books out.
"Hey, Lila" I say once I was next to her.
"Hi, Rach" she says before closing her locker.
"Are you really are having problems with guys?" I ask her getting concerned.
"No!" she says and after I gave her a serious look she says "It's just that, I want to be with Finn, but I'm not ready to go that far, you know?" she says.
"Yes, I do. I was having that problem with Jesse" I confess to her.
"And how did you guy manage to fix it?" she asks curiously.
"Well… I-I… Mm…" I stutterer nervously "Well, that's kind of intimate. But it's different with other people. You just have to found a balance where you feel comfortable with what you're doing but without losing who you are" I say trying to explain without give too much information.
"Thanks… that really help" she says before leaving.
"Good" I say out loud.
That day at Glee practice, Mr. Schue wrote Madonna on the board.
"What comes in mind when you see that name?" he asks us.
"Genius" I says.
"Icon" Kurt says.
"Hall of fame, MILF" Puck says, totally grossing me out.
Then Mr. Schue started talking about Madonna's influence in culture and music, before announcing that this weeks we are doing Madonna. I'm so excited. Which made us celebrate between us, until Puck opened his mouth.
"Mr. Schue, as a dude, Madonna makes me kind of uncomfortable" he says making me confuse.
"Yeah, she's hot and all, but can some of us do something else, like the guy version of Madonna, like… you know… Pantera?" Finn says backing him up.
"Typical" I say under my breath.
"Guys, you know it come to my attention, that many of you haven't been treating the young ladies of our group very nicely lately. Your disrespectful, bullies, sexists, and I hate to say it, misogynistic" he says to the boys.
"I don't even know what that means" Finn says, not surprising me at all.
"What it mean is… put yourselves in their shoes for a moment" Mr. Schue told them before giving us a speech about Madonna's culture. And then Kurt said something I dind understood, ans said that he was doing a digital project with Mercedes, and then Puck say something stupid about nobody intimidating Puckzzila. Like seriously, that was it.
"You know what Noah, I really couldn't disagreed more with you" I say before going to the band and tell then the name of one of Madonna's best's songs, that I think fits perfectly with this lesson.

"That's what I'm talking about! Yeah!" Mr. Schue says while he and Kurt are the only ones that gave us an applause.
At the end of the day I drive to my mom's house and after doing my homework, I was on the living room doing some thinking. What if I became a Cheerio? I've be popular, I can stop wearing the chip clothes I wear just so my real ones don't get ruin because of the slushies. And I can make Sue let me sing on the competitions, and I can finally touch a trophy from a national competition, 'cause let's face it, is nearly impossible for the Glee Club to win against VA. While I was thinking of this my mom got home with Jesse behind her.
"Hi, sweetie. How was school today?" she asks me after hanging her jacket and her bag on the closet by the door.
"It was okay" I say with a shrug. "We're doing Madonna this week"
"That's cool…. I guess" she says making me laugh. "I'm going to start making dinner. If you're going to your room keep the door open" she tell us looking a Jesse.
"Deal" I say before grabbing Jesse by the hand and dragging him to my room, and give him a big fat kiss.
"Hi to you too" he says after we pull apart.
"I missed you" I tell him.
"I missed you too…" he tried to say something else but I just keep kissing him, I mean he's so hot, and after yesterday, I can get enough. I tell him just that, which makes him pull away from me.
"What is it?" I asks him confuse.
"You can't tell me those things while Shelby is downstairs and she can come up any moment" he says sitting on my bed.
"You're right. I need to cool off" I says sitting on my desk chair. "So…I'm thinking about joining the Cheerios" I said taking him by surprise.
"What? Why?" he ask me confuse.
"Because that way the slushies would stop" I say.
"But aren't those girls mean to you?" he ask.
"Not all of them, I mean… I get along with Brittany and Quinn, and I'm starting to like Santana" I say before going to sit next to him.
"I never thought I hear you say that" he says referring to the Santana part.
"I know, me nether" I say sighing.
"Will Sue let you on the team, though? I mean, you've told me she's evil" he says concern about me.
"Don't worry, I know how to make her let me on the team" I say before giving him a kiss.
"Dinner's ready!" we hear as mom yells from downstairs.
"Coming!" I yell back.
"So I've thinking, and I decided to do a duet with Finn, at Glee" I told them while we were eating.
"Why?" Jesse asks getting mad
"Because that way we can smooth things over, and just be friends" I explain.
"But isn't he, like, into you?" Mom asks me.
"I don't think so. I mean, Lila told me that sometimes they make out under the bleachers" I tell them.
"They, what?" Mom says shock.
"Mom, you can't tell anything" I tell her knowing she'll tell my uncle.
"Well, as long as he doesn't try anything we you" Jesse says making me smile
So next day at school I was talking to the band guys about the song I wanted to sing with Finn. When I was giving them the music sheets I saw Finn entering the choir room.
"Finn, I was just going to find you" I say to him walking towards the piano. "Look, I know that the guys are a little uncomfortable with this week Madonna's assignment. So I figured, that you and I as co-captains could do a mash-up, and it could be fun. And that way we could show them how cool it can be" I say giving him the music sheet.
"Yeah, sure… whatever. Look are you still dating that Jesse kid?" he asks me taking me by surprise.
"Look Finn, I really don't want to talk about this. And besides it's really none of your business" I say getting defensive.
"Look I know thinks have been weir between us, but I never though you'll lie to me" he says making me feel bad.
"Okay… yes, I'm still dating Jesse" I tell him. "But please don't tell anyone. I really don't want to have a problem with them"
"Unbelievable" he says throwing his hand in the air.
"Look, I know that you want to have something more than a friendship, but that's what I can offer you. And as my friend I'm asking you to trust me" I say to him.
"Okay… I'll trust you. But I'll still be here when you realize that I'm right about us" he says before going to sit behind the drums.
"Note it" I say turning to him. "Alright, lest rehears then" I say to Brad.

Open your heart with the key
At the end of the song we ended next to the piano, breathing hard.
"That was good" I say to him.
"Totally" he says looking me weir.
"I'm gonna go now. I have something to do" I say to him before living him next to the piano and going to Sue's office.
"Miss Sylvester?" I ask as I get in her office.
"What do you want, Barbra?" she asks me with an annoying look.
"I want to be part of the Cheerios" I says cutting to the chase.
"Yeah, I want David Bowie to be my husband. Why would I let a loser like you on my team?" She says sarcastically.
"'Cause I can make you get a lot of sponsors for the team, starting from my Mother" I tell her.
"And who the hell is your mother?" she says
"Let's get real. I know that you know who my Mother is, and really I still don't know why you haven't used against me, but you know the truth, and that is that my Mother have influences, and she can get people to donate. Plus I was a cheerleader at my old school, and I was co-captain, oh and we won all of our competitions" I say making her look at me impressed.
"Okay" she says taking me by surprise. "You're in. Tell Becky to give you an uniform"
"Thank you. Pleasure doing business with you" I tell her smiling.
"But wait till Friday to put it on. I have a surprise for the school at the Cheerios presentation" she tells me.
"Okay, sure"
"Now get the hell out of my office"
When I got home on Thursday, I found Jesse waiting for me there, which is a surprise to me 'cause he was supposed to meet with her Mom today.
"Hey" I say to him before giving him a kiss. "I thought you were meeting with your Mom"
"Yeah… I did" he says looking sad.
"What is it?" I asks him knowing something is going on.
"My parents are getting divorce" he tells me shocking me.
"What? Why?" I ask him.
"Apparently my dad cheated on my Mom, she found him in their bed with his secretary" he says looking down.
"Wow, that's rough" I say trying to console him.
"Yeah… but wait, there's more" he says making me curious "My Mom is moving with my aunt, and because I'm still a minor, I have to leave with her" he tells me.
"Okay, that's not that bad, is it?" I tell him.
"No, it's just that my aunt lives in Lima, so my mom is taking me out of Carmel and transferring me to McKinley" he say shocking me even more.
"What? What does Mom says about this?" I ask him.
"She tried to talk my Mom out of it, but my Mom doesn't want to hear anything about it" he says before standing and pacing in from the couch. "What am I going to do now?"
"I don't know, babe. I mean you can join the New Directions" I suggest.
"Really, Rachel?" he says looking me like I've gone insane.
"What? It would be like practice while you get back to Carmel" I say.
"What makes you so sure that that's going to happened?" he asks me.
"Because we both know your dad it's going to do something about it. You know he hates Lima" I say walking towards him.
"You really think he'll care?" he asks me with doubt.
"I pretty sure he will" I says to him while giving him a hug "So you don't have to worry about anything"
"What the hell?" it's the first thing that comes out of Finn's mouth the next day when Mr. Schue tells everyone that Jesse is joining the team. "It seem like now, everybody its doing things just to hurt my feelings"
"I thought you'll over took this news much better" Jesse says in a cocky way. "I'm star. You can learn from me"
"We already fighting for second leads, and now that you show up, there goes my hope of getting a solo" Kurt says.
"He's a spy Mr. Schue I would know" Santana says.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa… Guys, I saw the paper work, I spoke to his Mother, they just move in with his aunt, which is in our school district. It's all about board guys, he goes to this school now" Mr. Schue says trying to explain.
"But it's just not fair" Artie says.
"Guys!" Mr. Schue exclaims. "Everyone who's ever auditioned for this group has got in. that's how we do thing here. Okay? To suddenly change the rules know? That's unfair" he lectures them.
"Look guys, Jesse is right we can take this opportunity to learn from him" I say to everybody.
"Didn't you supposedly broke up with him" Kurt says making me sigh.
"Okay…. the truth is… we never broke up" I say standing next to Jesse.
"I knew it!" Santana exclaims.
"But that's because we've been together for years now" I confess shocking everybody.
"What?!" they all say at the same time.
"I've known Jesse since I was ten. And we've a couple for four years now. I can't just simply broke up with him. So you can say whatever you want, but I'm not breaking up with my boyfriend for any of you guys" I finish saying.
"All right guys, we got a lot of work to do" Mr. Schue says taking everybody's attention. "Jesse, great to have you here. Welcome aboard" he says shaking Jesse's hand, making me smile. "Okay, from the top"
So after practice I went to the gym, after putting on my Cheerios uniform, to prepare for Sue's surprise for the school, and I found Kurt and Mercedes there.
"What are you guys doing here? Are you a Cheerio?" I asks them when I realize they were wearing a uniform.
"Yeah, and apparently so are you?" Kurt says.
"Okay, Loser. Let's get this show started" Sue says before grabbing her megaphone. "Five, Six, Seven, Eight!"

After the performance everybody got on their fits to give us a standing ovation.
"Sue, what the hell is going on here?" I heard Mr. Schue ask Sue.
"What the matter buddy? You missed the show?" she ask him sarcastically "Let me fill you in, future gay actor, Kurt Hummel, his sassy friend, Mercedes, and Barbra wanna, Rachel Berry, just torn that Madonna song" she says as we walk towards them.
"Wait, your Cheerios now?" he asks us with a dumbfounded look on his face.
"Yeah, I decided to add vocals to this widely produce Cheerios numbers, it'll give us an edge at nationals" she says to him.
"You guys could at least give me a heads up" he says to us approaching at us.
"Just like you give us a heads up, every week before you decide not to give us a solo?" Mercedes asks him rhetorically.
"Mr. Schue, Mercedes and I talk it over and we love being on Glee, but being in the Cheerios would give us more opportunity to shine. So we doing both" Kurt says before he and Mercedes join the other girls.
"I just want the slushies to stop. Besides I like being a cheerleader" I tell him.
"Since when?" he says not believing me.
"For you information Mr. Schue, I was a cheerleader at my old school in New York, you just never knew that" I tell him before joining Kurt and Mercedes.
"So you guys are really doing this?" I asks them.
"Yeah…" they say.
"Cool"
