Chapter 7 – Getting back on track Glee style
NARU'S POV
Naru end up arriving much later to Rachel's house than he hoped, around 2:00 am, because of that the young man tried to be as quiet as he could. Walking slowly, he closed the door thanking the gods he had a key to the house… tip toeing he looked briefly to the living room seeing that the Tv was on.
'Little one must have forgotten to turn it off' thought Naru walking towards the Tv. However, when he looked at the sofa he saw the petit figure of one Rachel Berry sleeping. 'I thought I text her to go to sleep… stubborn' smiling Naru moved his back pack no his right shoulder, then he lifted Rachel bride style, always carefully to not awake the diva.
Walking up the stairs he felt Rachel snuggle up to his chest while mumbling about 'Barbra and Tony's…'. 'even in her sleep she is thinking about the stage'.
After reaching Rachel's room, Naru opened the bed before slipping Rachel on it. The diva didn't wake up and so Naru went to his own room, trying to catch some deserved sleep, while fighting all the problems he had to fix… 'life was going to get harder before it gets easier'
WEDNESDAY NO ONE'S POV
After seeing that she was not on the sofa like she remembered to fall asleep at, Rachel conclude that Naru must have arrived… waking early like she usually did, the young diva checked to see if her best friend was indeed asleep, after confirming her suspicious she went to do her daily routine. Working out, showering, dressing up and making breakfast…
Around 7:45 am, the heavy steps of Naru were heard through the house… already dressed the teen walked into the kitchen. Yawning he said "Good morning Ray, smells wonderfully like always" with that he went to Rachel's side hugging her before grabbing a plate with food and a mug with coffee.
Hugging back Rachel said "Morning Ru, thank you for carrying me to bed last night" she too grabbed a plate and a mug seating across Naru on the table
"No problem, though I did tell you to go to bed" mushing on his toast Naru looked at Rachel with mock anger
"Yeah but that would be disrespectful so I waited for you" countered Rachel smirking while drinking from her mug
"More like you fall asleep but yeah… so how did it go yesterday with the tryouts?"
"You were just too late… It when good I'm on the team, and I made two new friends Jack and Fred I think you are going to like them, Fred is on the fencing team while Jack is on the wrestling team"
"If you say they are cool they I believe you. I need to talk to the coach to see if I can tryout"
"I'm sure she will let you on the team you are a former player so that counts for something"
"Maybe we will see" looking at the clock Naru said "It's almost time to go, wanna take the car or the bike?"
"The car today people always look strangely at me when I take the bike" said Rachel while grabbing their plates and mugs
"I thought you already knew that you shouldn't listen to the sheep cause they are dumb as fuck" with that Naru grabbed the key for his car and his and Rachel's bags.
"I know that but old habits die hard I guess, I'm trying though" Fowling Naru to the garage the two teens went to school bickering about what was best Broadway or old rock n roll…
SCHOOL NO ONE'S POV
For some reason, it was now tradition for the glee club to meet up on the parking lot before school, no one admitted but they all knew it was to see the tiny diva and if her bodyguard would be in school or not.
Looking around the lot, Kurt asked while standing next to his boyfriend "Does any of you see any bikes?"
"Not really maybe Rachel hasn't arrived yet" answered Tina with mike by her side with his arm on her shoulder
"That or Rachel finally stopped this faze, we knew it was only a matter of time" said Mercedes while walking towards Sam who has just arrived
"Probably yesterday that Bodyguard of hers was not in school so maybe he decided to leave" bitterly said Lauren
"Would you stop saying shit about my Jewbabe! I mean I think she proved that she is badass so let her be" came the voice of Puck who was next to a clues Finn who was just looking around the Parking lot. Mohawked teen had taking a like to the wrestling girl, but right now he wasn't liking the way she was talking about Rachel
"There is still time until the bell rings so maybe they are just late. Rachel did tell us Naru was going to school today…" Said Artie
"Yeah Rachie is never late" an excited Britany said while linking her pinkies with Santana and Quinn
Just then a car stopped less than twenty feet from them. Quinn recognized it "Rachel arrived" the rest of the Holy trinity and the glee club all watched as both Rachel and Naru walked out of the car.
Like the first time Naru was carrying their bags while Rachel upon seeing the Glee club started to walk towards them.
"Hi guys, I hope you had a wonderful restful sleep" greeted Rachel smiling at the group. Naru just gave them a nod.
"Hi Rachie you look hot today" came the voice of Britany who jumped out of her girlfriends embrace and hugged the tiny diva
Blushing Rachel said "Thank you Britany you also look very pretty today… can you let go of me now please I'm afraid I cannot breathe" remorsefully the tall cheerio let the tiny diva go, walking back to her girlfriends
Mercedes was watching Naru, narrowing her eyes she asked "So Naru, are you going to school today?"
Lifting his eyebrow Naru answer "Well I'm here aren't I?"
Always having Mercedes back Kurt said "Well you could just be here to drop Rachel off"
"Or to say Goodbye" offered Mercedes
Instead of making a big deal about this Naru just let out a sigh while looking at Rachel. The two of them seem to have a conversation with just their eyes, because studently Rachel turned to the rest of the group
"We are going to class now… Santana I take it you are taking advanced Spanish? I made Naru change classes so now he also takes it. Want us to hold you a seat?"
The Latina just nodded while Quinn said "Actually me and Brittany are also in it. Coach makes all cheerios go to at least two advanced classes so we choose Spanish as one of them"
"Ah okay in that case we will also hold one for you guys" turning to the rest of the glee club she then said "Bye guys"
However, before she and Naru could walk away Mercedes spoke with some anger on her voice "We were talking to you, the less you could do was to answer"
Stopping his pace Naru turned to the two gossips, Rachel put an arm on his shoulder as a warning, but the young Calcifer just send her a smile before turning to the other two. "I don't talk to people who have their head so far up their asses that they can almost fill their shit coming down"
"How dare you! We were just asking a simple question, no need to been an asshole" Said Kurt who gasped upon hearing Naru
"How dare I? How dare you! You cannot see other people enjoying their lives or having the spot light, you guys have to immeadetly drown their flames. Well I am not Rachel and therefore I'm not as kind as her, so next time you piss me off I will just forget I'm dealing with ladies" Naru said this as he sneered at Mercedes and Kurt a disappointed look on his eye "A families my ass" with that he grabbed Rachel's hand and leading her to their class
"Well you guys just got burned" said Arties when half a minute passed and no one said anything
Feigning indifference Mercedes said "As if… He may look like a badass but I bet he is all talk and no bite" Kurt nodded along
"Dude did you forget he kicked Azimo's ass plus is friends all by himself. He could make into a puddle in two seconds" said Puck looking at the two divas as if they were crazy
"While that maybe you forget Naru does everything that Rachel says. He is like a glorified bodyguard. There is no why Rachel will let him hurt us" said Kurt while rolling his eyes
"I'm not really sure about that…" said Tina
"What do you mean?" asked her boyfriend, though he had a pretty good idea already
"I meant that Rachel clearly has shown that she is not as forgiven as she was in the past"
"Please that's just a phase little miss diva will return to her loser normal in no time" Said Mercedes dismissing the idea
While all of this was going on, the Holy Trinity were trying really hard to not kill the two divas.
Murderous thoughts clouded their minds, and the only thing preventing them for making them a reality was that they knew Rachel would not be happy with them.
But alas we all know that a certain Latina as little to no patience what so ever…
"That's it! I'm sick and tired of you stupid losers saying shit about Rachel! You May have forgotten but we made her off limits that also means no saying shit about her! She has done nothing to deserve that!"
"Looks who's talking. Lopez, you were one of the main people who torture Berry so you cannot really say anything right now" came the voice of Lauren
"Shut it hippopotamus! I apologized to Rachel, I'm trying to mend my wrongs so don't you dare say I'm the same as you!"
Seeing that her girlfriend was getting madder by the minute, the two blonde cheerios quickly walked next to her grabbing her hands.
With a calm and soft voice Quinn said "We are going to be late to class, let's just go"
The Latina was about to disagree but looking at her two girlfriends made her slightly calm down. "Okay lets go then" and with that the three girls walked away
The bell rang and with that without voicing their thoughts the rest of the group all went to their respective classes, an aura of uncertainty was in the air…
SPANISH CLASS NO ONE'S POV
Mr. Schuester was a man that always tried to be the best he could be. If is best was the enough well that was another story. The teacher knew that he didn't always stood up to the bullies for his club like he was supposed to do. He would be the first to admit, only to himself of course, that there were even times where he witnessed bullying between his glee club and did nothing to stop it. In the end, he would make up excuses to justified his actions. What he could not understand however was how could he let Rachel Berry change so much in so little time.
He had always known that the tiny diva was meant to be greater than all the rest of his students, perhaps it was why he always pushed harder when it came to her, and why he would turn away when her own supposed family, glee club, would make fun of her and treat her as if she was nothing. His reasoning was that she need to grow a back bone because Broadway was not a walk in the park, of course in his most honest moments he would admit that it was just his jealous acting up. He also tried to make it in the business and look at where he was now… so maybe he was getting his frustrations with the world on someone that had no fault whatsoever… He was only Human.
"Mister Schuester the bell just rang don't you think it's time we begin todays lesson" the voice of Rachel Berry interrupt his thoughts
'Why can she learn, now the rest of the class will make fun of her' thought the teacher while waiting for the usual name call and alike to begin. However, when nothing happen he put the board marker down and turned to his class. There next to Rachel was the new member of New Directions, glaring at everyone who dared make fun of the diva. The girl in question just smiled at her friend before saying something that made the boy stop glaring.
'interesting it seems Rachel made a friend' He was about to start the lesson when the Holy trinity entered the classroom. What made him wide his eyes was the fact that the three most popular girls in the school choose to sit next to the tiny diva all the while smiling and waving hello.
It seemed that he was not the only one surprised because most of the classroom had their jaws on the floor. A sideway look from the trio thought made the stares stop and suddenly all the class was looking at him…
"So... lest start today's lesson, shall we?" he said while trying to see if he was dreaming or not.
LUNCH TIME NO ONE'S POV
"So Rachie were his Naru? I thought you said you had his lunch" Brittany asked while munching on her lunch. The Holy Trinity plus Rachel were all seating on the tables outside of the cafeteria. Brittany was seating next to the diva while Santana and Quinn were seating across from them
"And I have is Britt, Naru is just talking with Coach Sloam for fencing, he wants to join the team but because he wasn't here yesterday he didn't try out" explained Rachel while separating her and Naru's lunch
"So, you think he is going to get in?" asked Quinn while looking at her sandwich and thinking 'I wish Ray made me lunch, lion quinn wants bacon!'
"Definitely, Naru has practice fencing since he was a little boy. He would be a very good addition to the team"
"At least you won't be alone there" joined Santana who was eating her own sandwich while rolling her eyes at the pout her blond girlfriend had while looking at her sandwich 'Child'
"I'm happy to know that you care for me San, but I know how to take care of myself, plus I also have Fred and Jack now so I won't be alone" Rachel looked at her phone who now had a new sms 'Five more minutes, don't eat my lunch Ray 😊' Rachel replied with 'Okay Ru I will keep your lunch far away from the vultures'
"Who are Fred and Jack" the Latina asked lifting her eyebrow and momentarily stopped eating. The other two thirds of the trio also stopped eating suddenly curious as well
"Oh, I guess I should have said something first. Frederick is my new team mate, I'm mean I'm sure he is in, Jack is on the wrestling team, again I'm sure he will get chosen. I meet them yesterday and they seem to be good people" Rachel explained while getting up and waving her arm. The trio looked up and saw that Naru was walking towards them
"Hey Ray thanks for waiting for me" Turning to the Holy Trinity he nodded in greeting. He received two nods and a small smile back. He then seated in the other side of Rachel
"Hi Ru. Here take this" Rachel said while giving him the lunch "I was telling the girls about the new friends I made yesterday"
"You mean the Fred and Jack? I met Jack today in gym, he seemed okay a little weird but okay. Funny name he has tho" Said Naru while starting to eat
"Is his name Jack Daniels?" asked Quinn
"Yeah, how did you know Quinn?" asked Rachel while furrowing her face cutely in confusing
Santana decided to answer for her "He is one of the lesser known jocks you could say, he isn't really popular but not a loser either"
"Yeah he is in the middle" said Brittany smiling at the look Rachel had
"Oh, okay that makes sense, he did told me as much" nodded Rachel bobbing her head a little making all the rest of the table smile
However, Quinn had to unfortunately break the relaxed moment. "hmm Ray sorry to beak this and all but, are you okay?"
Again Rachel made a confused face "What do you mean Quinn? I feel well thank you"
"What she means Estrella is if you aren't hurt by the words Mercedes and Kurt said" Helped Santana while Brittany just pouted looking worried
They weren't expecting to see Rachel smile "Thanks for your concern but I really could care less about those two"
This answer made Naru smile while looking proud of the tiny diva. But Santana, Quinn and Britanny were looking at her like she had grown another head. Upon seeing this Rachel decided to clarify
"I mean I'm not really happy or anything but I cannot let their words hurt me. They don't deserve that"
"I guess you are right but if they hurt you, there is gonna be hell" said Santana shaking her fist
"I actually agree with Speedy Gonzales on this one. I warned them once I won't do it twice" said the young Calcifer
"Who are you calling Speedy Gonzales, Rasputin? "glared the Latina
"Do you prefer Satna then?" asked indifferently Naru
"You Perro I should go all Snix on you" growled Santana getting up
"You couldn't even make me move an inch"
"Wanna bet on it?"
"You bet" smugly said Naru while smirking
Before the two badasses could go on rampage Rachel simply said "No fighting"
Just that and Santana and Naru stopped whatever they were doing. Looking like reprimanded children at Rachel while pouting
"She started"
"He started"
Letting out a sigh the tinny brunet said "I don't care who started I just don't want to see any bloodshed. You guys need to behave your age and not like children"
Still pouting the two just nodded their heads
Smiling and clapping her hands together Rachel said "Great, now I have math now, quinn want walk to class together?"
"Of course Rach, just let me grab my things from my locker" said Quinn mimicking Rachel's smile
"Well me and Brittany have history so we better go" said Santana while linking her pinkies with the Dutch girl
"Aren't you in class with us Kiev?" asked Brittany
"Yes I do have but I need to meet with coach again, he is going to let me try out for the team" said Naru picking all of the tables trash and putting it in the bin
"Good luck Ru! I know you will make it" an excited Rachel said
"Thank you Ray" Naru said with that special smile only reserved to Rachel
"We will see each other again in glee today right?" asked Rachel while looking at her best friend and the Holy Trinity
"Yes I will meet you there after my last class" said Naru
"We have cheerios practice but we will meet you in the auditorium" said Quinn while Santana and Brittany nodded
With that each of them went to their respective classes
