All right so here I am updating! There's a cheerio routine here and I'm bad at detailing dances/routines/choreographies. So I put a link here just so you can get a better picture of what I mean.
www. youtube watch?v=vPhAXENSjiw
So yeah, that's the routine and the song used in the chapter is, "Hey Mickey" by Toni Basil. So ignore the song used in the video and picture "Hey Mickey" playing instead.
Another song used in this chapter is "Coffee and Cigarettes" by NeverShoutNever!
Enjoy!
The Hudson Family walked in to their grand home after the glee club auditions. Adeline already knew what was coming. She just wished she had a bit more time to tell them…
Oliver and Cheryl didn't even think twice and ran up the stairs to their rooms, some brother and sister they were. But really she couldn't blame them; her mother could be pretty scary at times…
Finn had gone to Burt's shop that he had recently taken over and Adeline was sort of thankful for that.
Adeline carefully walked up the stairs, hopefully wouldn't get noticed by her mother…
"Adeline Barbra Hudson don't even try to avoid the conversation!" Rachel shouted at her youngest.
Adeline sighed as she turned around towards her very angry mother. She swore she's never seen her angry before. Unless you count the time Oliver and her accidentally dropped one of her Tony's, then you could say she was angry.
"All right. I'm sorry for joining the cheerios even though you strictly told me not to. But I love being on the cheerios even though it's only been a day I've been in this uniform! I love it mommy! It's possibly one of the best things I have ever done." Adeline explained.
Rachel stepped closer to her daughter, "Yes, but do you realize how dangerous it is? Especially for you? You could get seriously hurt and I don't want to risk it especially in your—"
"—I don't have cancer anymore mommy! Can you get that through your head? It's been 5 years since I'm cancer-free and I won't get it again! Stop treating me like a baby!" Adeline interrupted, she just wanted to be treated normally by her parents—especially her mother.
"I do this because I want to protect you Adeline not anything otherwise! Cheerleading is a very dangerous sport—especially if Sue and her daughter are running it!" Rachel answered.
Adeline laughed," Really? So you let me be in ballet—which is possibly as equal to dangerous as cheerleading, but you wont let me be a cheerio? Wow nice decisions you're making there mommy." She replied sarcastically.
"Adeline, ballet is an art form, and if you want to be a successful Broadway star like myself, ballet is something you have to do." Rachel answered.
"Cheerleading is a sport that keeps me active and healthy. Not to mention it would look amazing in my applications for college when the time comes. So can you please let me be on the cheerios?" Adeline pleaded.
Rachel shook her head, "No Adeline! It's too dangerous!"
"Why won't you let me do anything? I'm not a little girl anymore!" Adeline exclaimed.
"Well you seem to keep acting like one!" Rachel retorted.
Adeline felt her face turn red with anger, "Well you seem to keep acting like a bitch!" Adeline shouted at the top of her lungs.
Upstairs Oliver and Cheryl were in shock of what Adeline had said. Ada loved and worshipped her mom and never disrespected her. Until now at least.
Back downstairs, Adeline felt a hand collide with her cheek. She felt the stinging sensation and felt hot tears glisten in her gray eyes. Her mother had slapped her. Her mother had never laid a hand on her, ever.
Rachel's angry face immediately turned to a sympathetic and regretful face," Oh my god Adeline I am so sorry." She said, reaching to touch her youngest daughter's cheek.
Adeline pushed her mother away, "Get away from me! Don't touch me!" she exclaimed, running up the stairs.
"Adeline! Adeline! I'm so sorry Birdie!" Rachel exclaimed, using the nickname she had given her.
Adeline walked inside her room and slammed the door; she felt so many emotions rush through her. She was angry, she was sad, and she was in so much pain.
The brunette looked at herself in the mirror; you could see the red hand mark on her cheek, god how it hurt.
She walked in her closet and took out a suitcase; she wasn't going to stay here. Not after what happened. Adeline packed her things; she was going to leave the house. Adeline was going to go to the one place she always felt welcome in.
Once she finished packing her things, she opened her bedroom window and threw the suitcase down. She grabbed a hold of a pipe and carefully brought herself down. She grabbed her suitcase and walked away from her home.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
Delilah and Nikki watched as Mason and Connor played a round of Modern Warfare 23. The two have always been competitive when it came to things like that.
"You're totally going to get your ass kicked Connor!" Mason said, gripping the control a little too much.
Connor playfully pushed Mason," Yeah right Mase, this is my game and you're totally going to lose!"
A couple of minutes of constant bashing and joking, Connor had won the game.
"Hell yes! Little bro just lost!" Connor exclaimed.
Mason rolled his eyes," I purposefully let you win."
Connor shook his head," You lost! Admit it!"
"I did not!"
"Did too!"
"I did not!"
"Did too!"
"I did not!"
"Did too!"
"I did not!"
"Did too!"
"I did not!"
"Did too!"
"I did not!"
"Did too!"
Nikki rolled her eyes ," Will the two of you shut the fuck up! You guys are making me want to slap the shit out of both of you!"
Connor and Mason quickly shut up; they did not want to get in Nikki's bad side…mostly because she was pretty scary at times.
Delilah giggled," Thank you Nikki. I swear I was this close to snapping."
Nikki smirked and hugged her little sister," Your welcome. Though I sure as hell would've loved to see you snap!"
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure you don't." Delilah argued.
Nikki nodded, "Probably."
The two girls shared a laugh and the doorbell suddenly rang.
"Not it!" Nikki exclaimed first.
"Not it!" Delilah said second.
"Not it!" Connor said last.
"Damn it!" Mason exclaimed.
The rebel boy huffed as he walked to the door and opened it to reveal a teary Adeline with a red mark on her cheek and carrying a suitcase.
His expression turned worrisome," Adeline? What are you doing here?" He gently touched her cheek," And what happened to your cheek?" he asked.
Adeline sniffled and looked at Mason," Can I come in? Please?"
Mason nodded, moving out of the way. Adeline slowly walked in and Mason closed the door and led the short brunette to the living room.
Delilah quickly stood up as she saw her best friend teary and with a red mark on her cheek that was slowly turning purple.
"Oh my god Adeline! What happened to you?" Delilah ran over to Adeline worriedly.
Adeline wiped away tears," M-my mom and I had an argument, I kind of called her a bitch and she slapped me." The tiny brunette explained.
Delilah hugged her friend," It's okay. Do you want me to get my mom and dad?"Adeline nodded, she desperately wanted Quinn's comfort. The blonde quickly walked towards the kitchen to get her parents.
Nikki walked towards Ada and cringed," Wow, your mom has an arm I swear. I'll go get you an ice pack." Nikki said, retreating towards the kitchen.
"Adeline take a seat. You must be pretty shaken up." Connor offered.
Adeline smiled softly and nodded, taking a seat on the couch. She touched her cheek and flinched, it hurt like hell.
Seconds later, Puck and Quinn with Delilah and Nikki behind them walked in the living room and Quinn rushed towards Ada.
"Oh my god Adeline what happened to you?" Quinn asked worriedly. Nikki gave her mother the ice pack and Quinn put it on the brunette's cheek.
"My mom and I had an argument over me joining the cheerios. I said some things and she slapped me quite hard." Adeline answered, taking the icepack. Quinn nodded, she was going to have a talk with Rachel later when she had the chance."I-I was also wondering if you and Uncle Noah would let me stay here for a while. I just don't want to go home."
Quinn and Puck nodded," You can stay here for as long as you want. We have an extra bedroom you could stay in. But I'm going to have to tell your parents." Quinn said.
Ada nodded," That's fine. Thank you so much." Adeline said, hugging Quinn tightly.
Quinn smiled softly, hugging the tiny girl back," Delilah why don't you help Adeline get situated in her room?" Delilah nodded, leading Adeline upstairs, taking her suitcase with her.
Quinn sighed getting her phone and calling Rachel, who she was going to have a nice conversation with.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
Rachel was curled up in her and Finn's room, crying. She couldn't believe she slapped her own daughter! She wasn't a good mother, she just wasn't.
Suddenly her phone rang and saw it was Quinn, she took her phone and answered," Hello?" she croaked out.
"Rachel, can you explain to me why your daughter came to me with a bruised cheek and in tears telling me you slapped her?" Quinn exclaimed.
Rachel stood up from her bed and walked over to Ada's room and opened it to see she wasn't there," Well Adeline and I had an argument over her joining the cheerios—which I am very against of. She ended up calling me a bitch, and I don't know what came over me but I slapped her—my own daughter Quinn! I-I-I feel like a monster, I would never hurt my children Quinn, ever!" Rachel exclaimed, feeling her voice crack.
"Yes, Adeline told me—and I wasn't too happy that she said that to you. But Rachel, you should really give Adeline more freedom. She is a teenager after all. I know you're worried about her, since she went through a lot—and believe me I saw how scared you were during those tough times. But Adeline wants to move on from the rough experience, and you constantly remind her of it when you deny her some freedom to be herself." Quinn explained.
Rachel sniffled," She's my little girl Quinn. I don't want her to get hurt. I don't want any of my kids to get hurt. It's just I'm scared it'll come back and –oh god I don't even want to think about it coming back. I want to give her freedom but I'm scared something will happen…"
"Rachel, I know you're scared. But she just wants to be a teenager. Let her be a teenager Rachel. You have to admit to yourself that she's all grown up. Adeline isn't a little girl anymore. She will always be a little girl in your eyes like I see with Nikki and Delilah, but I know they're grown up now and they need their freedom. They're only teenagers once Rach, let her enjoy hers." Quinn said.
Rachel sighed," I guess so. So Adeline is at your house, I'll go get her and—"
"—Rach, I think its best she stays here for a while. Let her set her mind straight. She's in good hands Rachel don't worry."
Rachel nodded," Fine. I-I guess that's okay. Just take care of her for me okay?"
"Of course. I'll talk to you later Rach."
"Yeah. Bye Quinn."
"Bye." And Quinn hung up and Rachel sighed, it was going to be rough not having all of her kids with her.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
The Lopez-Pierce sat down for dinner, like they've always have. The 6 sat in the table and smiled.
"So how was school today? The first day is always nerve-wracking—especially if you're a senior or freshman." Santana asked.
"It was all right. I'm already popular even though I've only started school today." Rowan answered.
Santana smiled proudly," That's because the Lopez-Pierce's have always been popular when it comes to social status."
Keegan laughed," It's true. It just gets creepy when girls follow you home…" he said, remembering when Taylor Ben Israel stalked him—well still does.
"That's because we Lopez-Pierce men have the good looks and charms that girls can't resist." Gabe remarked proudly.
Adrian rolled her eyes," We Lopez-Pierce women make men melt and fall to their knees so don't include us out."
Brittany chuckled," Point in case, the Lopez-Pierce's are very well-known people."
Their lovely conversation was interrupted by a cell-phone ringing. Santana stood up and took the phone call," I'm sorry I got to take this." She said.
Brittany sighed and nodded as Santana left," Someone doesn't obey the, 'No electronics of any kind during family bonding time' rule." Brittany huffed.
The 4 kids remained silent, they knew their mami tended to be very busy all the time. But they have grown accustomed towards Santana's busy schedule, considering she was a lawyer. But Brittany always had a problem with it, she wanted Santana to spend time with their children as much as possible—especially Gabe and Adrian since they were graduating this year and they certainly weren't planning on staying in Lima for another year. One of the reasons why Brittany suggested 5 years ago they move back to Lima, for Santana and her can bond more with their children. But it didn't seem to be working that way for them.
Santana came back and picked up her plate. Brittany sent her a bewildered look," What are you doing?" Brittany asked.
"I need to head back to the office, I have a very important case that I need to work on. So I'll be back late." Santana answered, from the kitchen where she placed her plate.
Brittany gave a disappointed look," Oh. I guess so. I'll see you later then?"
Santana nodded and gave her a quick peck on the lips," I'll see you guys' later okay?" Santana said.
The 4 kids' nodded solemnly; they didn't really want their mami to leave. But it's a routine they have come accustomed to.
Once Santana left, the table grew eerily quiet. Brittany put on her best smile and tried to continue the conversation," So…you guys did amazing in the glee auditions and performance."
Keegan nodded and smiled softly, "It was fun. It's going to be a cool year."
Rowan looked up from her plate," Can I be excused?"
Brittany sighed and nodded," Yes, you're excused."
Rowan quickly got up with her plate and there were only 4 of the Lopez-Pierce's left.
"Can I also be excused?" Adrian asked.
Brittany nodded, "You're excused."
And the oldest child stood up and took her plate; she didn't want to stay awkwardly in the table.
Gabe stared at his mom, "Can I—"
"—yes you're excused." Brittany interjected.
And so only Keegan and Brittany were left in the table that once had 6 happy faces, Brittany knew her family was slowly drifting apart. And she wanted to do something about that.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
Ethan was in his room, softly petting his golden retriever Skye. Thinking a bit too much about a certain Lopez-Pierce. He stared out of his window and saw Rowan playing with her black border collie, Clark. He smiled softly as the brunette ran around with the dog. He needed to do something; he couldn't let Rowan slip through his fingers so easily—not if someone else could easily get to her.
He turned away from his window and played with his lip piercing, there had to be something he could do…that's when it hit him.
The Asian boy grinned, Rowan was going to be his. She had to. He couldn't lose her, not now—not ever.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
The next day there was school again, and everyone was slowly getting accustomed to the school year.
Gabriel strolled through the McKinley hallways and caught sight of Annie, who he was just looking for. He put on his best smile and walked towards her.
"Hey there Annie." He greeted.
Annie looked away from her locker and rolled her eyes as she caught sight of him," What do you want?" she asked impatiently.
"I was wondering if maybe you and I can maybe go grab a coffee later. Just the two of us." He said.
Annie shook her head, "Sorry, cant."
Gabe stared at her, "Well why not?"
"I have to babysit for the Smith's later. They're going to this dinner and they have 3 kids and I'm the only one who they trust on short notice." Annie explained.
Gabe didn't want to lose Annie so easily, he was a persistent boy and all he wanted was Annie," C-can I babysit with you?" he stuttered.
Annie gave him a quizzical look," You want to babysit 3 energetic children for 3 hours?" she asked.
Gabe nodded," Yeah, why not? I'm pretty good with kids." He answered.
Annie ran her hand through her blond braid," If I do say yes, what's in it for you?"
Gabe leaned closer to Annie, "I get to spend time with you." He whispered.
Annie felt chills rush down her spine but quickly composed herself," Fine. Here's the address and you have to be there at 6, no later or earlier." She said, handing him a paper with the address.
Gabe grinned, "Got it."
Annie stared at him and nodded, "I'll see you later." And the blonde closed her locker and left the boy there.
Gabe slowly grinned like a maniac and pumped his fist in the air, "Yes!" he exclaimed. Things were going well for him.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
Scotty walked out of class and adjusted her glasses and walked towards her locker to her books and when she started to walk to her next class, she accidently bumped into someone causing all her books to fall out of her arms.
"I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" a deep voice asked worriedly.
Scotty nodded and kneeled down to pick up her books. "Here let me help you." Keegan kneeled down and helped her pick up her stuff.
Suddenly they both reached for the same book their hands touching. Scotty felt Goosebumps envelope her body. She looked up and noticed it was Keegan Lopez-Pierce who was helping her. He smiled at her and she softly smiled back. Keegan was one of the most popular boys at school yet he was helping her. She never thought someone like him would help her.
"Well here you go. I really am sorry." The sophomore apologized.
"It's okay." She said sincerely.
He gave her a dashing smile. "I'll see you around."
"Okay." She said.
He smiled at her one last time and walked away, and weirdly, Keegan felt something that he really couldn't describe. He knew Scotty from long back, she was always the quiet girl in the background. Nothing else. And he suddenly clashes into her and he feels something in his stomach, something he couldn't describe. He turned to see if Scotty was still there, but she was long gone. He sighed and continued walking. That Scotty girl sure was mysterious…
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
Oliver saw Adeline walking down the hallway, a purple bruise on her cheek that looked like she tried covering up. His mother told him about the whole ordeal and how Ada was now temporarily living with the Puckerman's. He heard his mother cry the whole night—and one thing he didn't like was seeing people cry.
He approached Ada calmly,"Hey Ada."
Ada looked up and smiled softly, "Ollie."
"I think you should come home." He blurted out.
The freshman shook her head," I'm in no way planning on going back home anytime soon. Not after what she did to me." She said.
"She's only trying to protect you." He replied.
The tiny brunette scoffed, "Some protecting then."
"You provoked her Ada. You shouldn't have called her a bitch."
"So this is my fault then?" Adeline asked.
"I didn't say that."
"But you're implying it. Look, I don't want to go home. I-I-I need some time to think. Can I at least get that? All I want is some freedom and mom and dad don't give it to me. I just want to be a teenager yet they treat me like I'm still that little girl with cancer when it's clear I don't have it anymore." Adeline explained.
Oliver sighed, "Mom loves you. And she misses you. If she's doing all of those things it's because she's scared. She cares about you."
"She clearly didn't show it yesterday."
"And she's sorry about it. Look, you take all the time you want, but know that mom and dad do love and care about you. No matter what you think." And with that, the sophomore walked away from his little sister.
Adeline sighed, her brother always seemed to be the one to give those pep talks that'll get you to do anything. But it wasn't going to work on Adeline—not this time.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
Ethan played with his blue bowtie and buttoned his red flannel shirt. He gulped, he couldn't believe how nervous he was, and he was one of the most confident guys ever yet he was nervous to ask a girl out on a date!
"You could do this Ethan. You could do this…" he thought to himself.
He walked inside the choir room where Rowan was sitting by herself reading what appeared to be a comic book.
He gripped the red tulips he had gotten for her and took a deep breath and walked up to her.
"Hey Rowan." He greeted.
Rowan looked up and quickly put away the comic book she was reading, "Hi." She greeted nervously. Someone almost saw her with a comic book…
He smiled softly and handed her the red tulips (red roses were too cliché in his opinion…)," I-um got you these."
Rowan took the flowers and smiled, "Thanks."
"So I was thinking," he began," A-a-and. I thought maybe—"he sighed. This wasn't going to work, and then he thought of something."Hold that thought." He said.
He walked over to the band and whispered something in their ear. Rowan stared quizzically at Ethan, what was this boy planning on doing?
He walked back to Rowan and grinned then nodded to the band.
1, 2, 1,2,3,4
Coffee and Cigarettes are my only escape.
I got my cup of Joe, my pack of stokes,
And I'm on my way downtown, to
Set up shop, and sing my cares away.
So, won't you sing with me,
'Cause it's cold outside, and I'm feeling kinda lonely.
Ethan bobbed his head up and down to the music; he really wanted Rowan to know how he felt. And hopefully this song showed it.
Friday nights are always the same in this town. Coffee and Cigarettes are best when shared with you.
I'm looking up, but I'm feeling kind of down.
So, I'll light this cigarette and smoke the night away,
And I'll hope that Saturday will be the day
When everything feels okay.Ba da da Da da da da da da
Ba da da da da
And share a cup or two.
Yeah, I have friends, but they have friends,
And they have parties, and I'm so awkward.
So whatta ya say, just as friends, we see a movie
This weekend, alright? Okay.
Rowan stared at Ethan, what was he trying to say? Then it hit her, she looked down oh god…Ethan liked her! She should've seen it! What was she going to do? Friday nights are always the same in this town.
I'm looking up, but I'm feeling kind of down.
So, I'll light this cigarette and smoke the night away,
And I'll hope that Saturday will be the day
When everything feels okay.
The Asian boy sent her a smile and continued pouring his emotion in the song.Ba da da Da da da da da da Ba da da Da da da da da da
Ba da da da da
Ba da da da da
He finished the song and walked closer to Rowan, "So I was wondering if you'd like to go see a movie this weekend? Whichever movie you want to see, I don't mind." He asked.
Rowan sighed and stood up, "Listen Ethan, you're a really nice guy. But I just got this newfound popularity and I want to experience what popularity has to offer before I stick to just one guy. It was really sweet what you did, but I just don't feel the same way." Rowan gave back the flowers to a heartbroken Ethan and walked away from the choir room.
Ethan stood there, he just got rejected by the girl he had a major crush on for 3 years…god how it sucked to get rejected.
He grabbed the tulips and threw them in the trash can; they were no use to him anymore anyway. He dragged himself out of the choir room, with a sad face plastered on his face.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
Gabriel walked towards his big sister, Adrian and put his arm around her,"Hey there Adrian…"
Adrian smiled softly and took Gabe's arm away from her shoulder," Hey."
"So I was wondering," he began," Alex Newman is throwing this party that is claimed to be pretty awesome. And I was wondering if you'll go with me? Since we are the 'Wonder Twins'." He offered.
"Thanks. But no thanks. I'm not into parties. And you of all people know that." Adrian replied.
Gabe sighed, "Come on sis, it would be fun! What are you planning on doing this weekend anyway?"
"Things that don't involve partying." She answered simply.
"In other words, nothing." Gabe retorted.
Adrian rolled her eyes," I just don't want to go to a stupid party."
"God, you're so uptight." Gabe said.
Adrian scoffed," Me uptight? I am not!" she answered, angrily.
"You are! You never do anything fun and you're always just there doing nothing that involves getting in trouble. When was the last time you ever had fun?" Gabe asked.
Adrian remained quiet, her brother was right but she wasn't going to admit to anything.
Gabriel smirked," I thought so."
"That doesn't mean I'm going to go to that party. I'm not going to go. No matter how uptight you think I am, I'm not going and that's final." Adrian said.
Gabe rolled his eyes and nodded," All right then. Later little miss uptight."
Adrian sent him a glare and walked away," Ass." She muttered to herself.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
The cheerios did an over the top performance with killer dance moves and stunts, Jeanette Sylvester stared at the performance and looked at her mother.
"Can I get the megaphone? I have a few words to say to this little pack of losers." Jean asked.
Sue smirked, handing her the microphone," Have the honors."
The performance finished and she put the microphone to her mouth," That was absolutely horrible. Do you expect to win Nationals with that routine? It looked like Sarah Palin tried to teach you guys to do this routine! Which she never learned how to, she's horrible. Now I want you sloppy babies to do the routine over and over again until you get it right! You get a five minute break and until you get it right, you will do the routine over and over again. Got it?"
The cheerios nodded and dispersed, my god how hard being on the cheerios was.
Rowan, Adeline, and Delilah sat on a bench and let out a breath," I swear, Coach Jean is trying to kill us." Delilah said.
"You just figured that out now? She was put on this earth to torture us!" Adeline exclaimed.
Rowan laughed," Maybe she was. But if this means we get to be popular, I say whatever."
"Even if it means your mother slaps you?" Adeline joked, touching her covered up cheek.
Rowan chuckled," Even then." Her expression then turned serious as she remembered the event that occurred between Ethan and her.
"Something on your mind Ro?" Delilah asked.
Rowan nodded," I didn't tell you guys this but earlier, I was in the choir room and Ethan came up to me and sang this song and asked me out on a date."
The two girls grinned, "Really? That's amazing Rowan! You said yes right?" Delilah said.
Rowan shook her head," I told him that I recently got popular and I want to experience what it has to offer and that I don't want to be in a serious relationship right now." She answered.
"What? Are you an idiot? You guys would make an amazing couple! The dude's liked you for years and he's possibly one of the sweetest and cutest guys I've ever met and you reject him? What is wrong with you?" Delilah exclaimed.
"Will you calm down? I'm not interested okay? And I might as well be honest than lead him on." Rowan retorted.
Adeline nodded," She does have a point. I've been led on once…" Adeline said.
The two girls looked at the girl," Really? Who? Give me the details." Rowan said.
Adeline sighed," It was 2 years ago. Delilah, remember when you guys came to visit us in New York?"
Delilah nodded," We were there for the holidays. What about it?"
"Well, Mason and I…we kind of kissed. He was my first kiss. He claimed to have a crush on me and I told him I did too. And –well in the end he said that there was someone else. Saphirra Renolds to be more exact. And I ended up heartbroken. And that's why your brother and I don't get along that well." Adeline explained.
The two girls stared at her in shock," No way! Mason and you kissed? You guys had a thing? How did I not know this? "
Adeline chuckled," I wanted to forget that's all. But it's in the past. It's not like something was going to happen anyway."
"You still like him don't you?" Rowan asked.
"No I don't! It's all in the past, we've both moved on." Adeline lied.
Rowan and Delilah smirked," You totally do." They said in unison.
Adeline turned red," I don't."
"Whatever you say…" Rowan trailed off.
"5 minute break's over! Let's go over the routine!" Coach Jean exclaimed.
Adeline, Rowan, Delilah, Nikki, Adara, and Emily all looked at each other. They had another plan in mind…
Nikki grabbed her iPod and connected it to the speakers they were using for the routine and put the song they were going to perform.
The music began playing and Jean gave a baffled look, that wasn't the song…
The 6 girls stepped forward and began swishing their hips back and forth.
Oh Mickey Oh Mickey
You're so fine
You're so fine
You blow my mind
Hey Mickey!
Hey, hey, Hey Mickey. The six sang
You're so fine
You're so fine
You blow my mind
Hey Mickey!
Hey, hey, Hey Mickey.
Adara executed the perfect back flip and Rowan stepped next to her. Hey, Mickey! Oh Mickey, what a pity Oh Mickey
You've been around all night
And that's a little long
You think you've got it right
But I think you got it wrong
But can't you say goodnight
So you can take me home Mickey,
It always means you won't
You're giving me the chills
Baby, please baby, don't
Every night you still leave me all alone Mickey , Delilah sangAll the cheerios did the choreography simultaneously, Oh Mickey, what a pity
You don't understand
You take me by the heart
When you take me by the hand
Oh Mickey, you're so pretty
Can't you understand
It's guys like you Mickey
Oh what you do Mickey, do Mickey
Don't break my heart Mickey! , All 6 girls sang together.Adeline did a flip forward, Hey Mickey!
Now when you take me by the
Who's ever gonna know
Everytime you move I let
A little more show
It's something we can use
So don't say no Mickey, Adeline sang.
C'mon and give it to me anyway you can
Anyway you wanna do it
I'll treat you like a man
But please baby, don't leave me in the damn
Mickey, Adara sang doing a handspring.
You don't understand
You take me by the heart
When you take me by the hand
Oh Mickey, you're so pretty
Can't you understand
It's guys like you Mickey
Oh what you do Mickey, do Mickey
Don't break my heart Mickey!
You're so fine
You're so fine
You blow my mind
Hey Mickey!
Hey, hey, Hey Mickey.
Jean and Sue watched the performance unravel and thought it was all right for a routine the cheerios choreographed. Oh Mickey Oh Mickey, what a pity Oh Mickey, what a pity
You're so fine
You're so fine
You blow my mind
Hey Mickey!
Hey, hey, Hey Mickey.
You don't understand
You take me by the heart
When you take me by the hand
Oh Mickey, you're so pretty
Can't you understand
It's guys like you Mickey
Oh what you do Mickey, do Mickey
Don't break my heart Mickey!
You don't understand
You take me by the heart
When you take me by the hand
Oh Mickey, you're so pretty
Can't you understand
It's guys like you Mickey
Oh what you do Mickey, do Mickey
Don't break my heart Mickey!
Jean put the megaphone to her mouth," Who choreographed this routine?"
"We did." The 6 girls said stepping forward.
The blonde cheerleading coach eyed the girls', "Well it wasn't bad. And you all sang ?"
The 6 nodded, "Well then you 6 better get your singing pipes ready because I'm about to overuse them like Kim Kardashian overuses Botox." Jeanette announced.
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
Orion and Aaron walked in the empty choir room for glee," Well it looks like we're the first ones." Aaron pointed out.
Orion smirked," No! Really? Didn't notice until you decided to point it out." He sarcastically remarked.
Aaron playfully pushed him," Hey, hey! No sarcastic remarks unless I say it!" he joked.
Orion laughed," Nice to know." He replied.," So your glee audition was really good." Orion complimented.
Aaron smiled knowingly, remembering the reason why he sang it," Yeah thanks. My mom and I worked on it for a while. It was a good outcome don't you think?"
Orion nodded," Yeah, it was awesome. You're like the male version of your mom."
"Well then I must be pretty talented." he joked.
"Let's not get cocky now."
"I wasn't planning to." He answered.
Suddenly, Orion tripped on a chord and Aaron grabbed him," Be careful there klutz." Aaron joked.
Orion laughed and looked at him in the eyes, he never noticed until now but Aaron had the most entrancing green eyes he's ever seen. Their faces were so close it was like if they were about to kiss. Aaron blushed and looked away at Orion's sudden staring. The curly haired boy slowly composed himself and things just got awkward between the two.
Minutes later, the rest of the New Directions walked in for glee and Orion and Aaron still felt the awkward feelings that occurred only moments ago.
Everyone took their seats and Mr. Schue walked in excitingly," All right guys! Let me just make an announcement, tomorrow after school, we will all take a trip to check our 'Competition'." Will explained, raising his hands in quotations.
"Who are we going to see?" Cheryl asked.
"Vocal Adrenaline. They may be good, but we are the best. So don't worry about it." Will answered. "Any questions?"
Everyone remained silent, "All right then, I guess you guys could just hang for the rest of the time." Will said.
Everyone quickly turned to each other and went into their own conversations.
Aidan looked at Ethan who looked down from the recent rejection from Rowan," So you're just going to be down about this?" Aidan asked.
Ethan nodded, "Nothing else in store for me. "He said glumly.
"Am I really hearing this Ethan Kai Chang? The most confident guy I have ever met? The guy that doesn't give up so easily on things he wants?" Aidan asked dumbfounded.
Ethan nodded," Yes." He answered.
Aidan shook Ethan," You have to get back in the game Kai! Don't give up on her! She's the girl you've had a crush on for three years and you're just giving up like that?"
Ethan nodded staring at the floor," She doesn't want me. That's that. What more is there fighting to?"
Aidan sighed, he had to get through to this boy," You sir will not give up on her! You will do whatever it takes to win her over! Because the Ethan I know wouldn't give up easily. He would dust himself off and get back in the game to win his girl. Look at her Ethan," Aidan turned Ethan's head to Rowan who was smiling and talking to her friends," That's the girl of your dreams you are giving up on. Are you sure you want to do that? Do you want to give up on her? Just like that?"
Ethan stared at Rowan who looked up from her friends and stared back at Ethan and quickly looked away, guilt taking over her. He bit his lip and shook his head," No I wont give up on us." He said to himself.
Ethan turned to Aidan," I'm going to win her over. No matter what it takes."
Aidan grinned and patted the boys back," Atta boy! That's the Ethan I know!"
Ethan smiled," Ethan Kai Chang is back."
On the other side of the choir room, Keegan and Gray were talking in deep conversation.
"So Delilah Puckerman? She isn't half bad. She's best friends with Rowan and Adeline so that's how I know her." Keegan said.
Gray turned and stared at the blonde who's hazel-green eyes were glistening as she talked about a new dance routine she came up with, her friends listening to her.
"Yup. Little ol' Delilah Puckerman has stolen my heart." Grayson told his friend.
Keegan chuckled," You're screwed."
Gray turned to his friend," Why?"
"Her dad is super overprotective of her. Every guy drools over her but from a distance. Puck doesn't let one guy even glance at her. She's his youngest so it seems obvious. But he's not as overprotective over Nikki as he is with Delilah. Mostly because Nikki has eyes for the opposite sex but you didn't hear it from me." Keegan explained.
Gray bit his lip, Puck scared him at times…but now even more…"I'm sure he will like me. I mean what's not to like about me?"
" It's not that. He just doesn't want his little girl to get hurt." Keegan replied.
"I won't hurt her." Gray said.
"I'm not saying that. He just thinks that no guy should come close to her. He believes all guys are pigs and just want her for sex." Keegan said.
Grayson raised his eyebrow quizzically," Didn't he use to that back in his high school days? I mean he did get Quinn preggers."
Keegan shrugged his shoulders," That's his old self, he's matured since then…kind of. He still plays Mario Kart when he gets the chance."
Gray chuckled," So what about you Keegs? Any girl got you interested?"
Keegan chuckled and looked at Scotty's direction, that girl was so mysterious that he liked it and it had him curious. Grayson turned to see who Keegan was looking at and turned back at him dumbfounded," Scott Hummel-Anderson? You like her?" he asked.
"She's mysterious. I'm curious about her. I like mysterious. And she's not ugly actually. Although Blaine and Kurt tend to scare me—especially Blaine who's overprotective of his girls'." Keegan replied.
Gray nodded," She's a cute little thing. But not my type. Delilah's my type." He said with a wink.
Keegan chuckled, "I'm sure."
~~Glee: The Next Generation! ~~
Gabriel waited outside the doorstep of the Smith's house. It was 5:59 p.m. and he was waiting for it to be 6. Only 60 seconds and he could go in. He couldn't believe he was actually going to babysit. But he was only doing it for Annie, he liked the girl. And not like as a friend, but like, like more than a friend. I know he sounded like a 13 year old with a crush on a girl but in truth, he had been interested in Annie since she first moved here. It was something he was trying to hide, but he couldn't hide his feelings from Annie. Not at all.
He checked his watch and saw it was now 6. He rang the doorbell and waited a few seconds until the blonde he was very much interested opened the door," Hey." He greeted.
"Hi." She said back.
Gabe stood there awkwardly," Can I come in?" he asked.
Annie nodded and moved out of the way," Yeah, come in."
Gabe walked in the house and looked around," So where are the little munchkins?" he asked.
Annie led Gabe to the living room where the kids were playing at," Right here. They've weirdly been behaving. Here, let me present them to you." Annie led Gabe to where the kids were playing.
"This is Alex. He's 8 and the oldest." She said, the 8 year old looked up and smiled softly he had brown hair and striking dark blue eyes.
"And this is Riley, she's 6." The little girl had blonde hair and green eyes that sparkled in the light. She had her blonde hair in pigtails that made her look cute.
"Finally, this is Jamie. He just turned two." The little boy had ash blonde hair and big chestnut orbs and he was quite adorable.
"So these are the kids that you and I will watch over for the next 3 hours." Annie said.
Gabe nodded," Cool. So what do we do now?" he asked.
"Play with them, entertain them, make sure they don't misbehave." Annie listed.
"Okay." Gabe sat down with the 3 kids, and started playing with them.
"So what are we doing here?" he asked.
"We're trying to build a skyscraper." Alex answered.
Gabe smiled," Can I join?" he asked.
Alex nodded and Gabe started helping Alex and Riley build the skyscraper with the lego's they had. After about half an hour, the three had built a skyscraper as tall as Riley.
"Could we not take it down? I want mommy and daddy to see it." Alex asked, Riley nodding in agreement.
Annie nodded with a smile," Yeah sure. That's fine. I'm sure they'll be very proud."
Annie noticed a difference in this Gabe from the Gabe at school. This Gabe was sweet and good with kids and a total dork. And the Gabe at school was a total jerk at times and a non-stop flirt. She preferred dorky Gabe to Jerky Gabe.
After about an hour and a half later of babysitting the kids, they all surprisingly managed to get to get bathed and in bed. And willingly—with the convincing of Gabe. The two sat down on the couch watching TV.
"How did you do it?" Annie asked, not looking away from the television.
"Do what?" he asked.
"Manage to get kids to listen to you; I usually take long to even control them." She said.
He smirked," Jealous?"
Annie rolled her eyes," No. But seriously, how do you do it?"
"I took care of my two younger brother and sister. Usually when my moms' had their date nights. It's experience I guess." He answered.
Annie nodded," That's really impressive."
"Yeah…"
"You're different than what I thought you were, at school you're this popular jock who's a flirt and a bit of a jerk. But here, you're this sweet dork who's good with kids." Annie told him.
He looked at her," Which one do you like more?"
"Dorky Gabe." She answered.
He chuckled," I figured you'd say that."
Blue eyes met Hazel and the two leaned in and their lips met. It was a soft at first, but he pressed his lips more forcefully against her own as he slid his arms around Annie's waist. Her hands reached around his neck and into his hair as the kiss became more passionate. It felt like tingles through her entire body, a spark surged through her.
They finally broke of the kiss and just laid there, their foreheads pressed together. They had no words to say to each other, the kiss alone was enough for the two to realize something:
They had fallen for each other.
But did they want to fall for each other? No. Not at all.
So that was the chapter! What did you think?
