As requested:

This was longer than I anticipated. Very fun to write! well, there's a second part coming up. enjoy! would love to hear your feedback!

The cast is doing a photo shoot for Seventeen magazine after the praise they got for the MJ episode:

Photographer:

Okay Glee boys! I want you guys to give me your best Mj pose. Kevin, we'll start with you and Harry first since you two did Scream. The fans will love it.

Harry and Kevin nod and fist bump.

Kevin: Stand back guys, sexy is coming through.

Harry: He's talking about me.

Kevin: you wish.

The guys start posing for the camera, laughing and the photographer is loving it.

Photography: That was perfect! Okay I want all the guys. Give me your best "bad" look.

The guys join Kevin and Harry and give their all.

Photographer: Okay Cory, I said bad not constipated. Come on pretend someone just stole your lunch money

The boys start laughing.

Photographer: [laughing] okay that's good. Guys, take a few minutes. I'm going to check on the girls.

The girls were in the next room going through make up.

Kevin: [to chord] so you've been spending a lot of time with Amber

Chord: oh you know. We have to. We have a lot of scenes coming up and Brad wants to kill us after giving him a hard time for the mj scene.

Darren: Right. RILEYSTREET

Chord: [confused. Did amber tell them about her teaching him about tumblr?] You know about that?

Kevin: yeah, who doesn't? Get with the times. And listen, you're not the only one paired off with her. There's Mcriley, Damber, Monriley ,Shumriley, ….need I go on ?

Chord: [a bit disappointed that the fans thought of amber with the other glee guys and not just him] oh. Really? That's funny! [Laughs lightly]

Mark: Dude, do you ever get mad? It's like you're letting us win here.

Chord: Win? Win what? What's the prize? Because I don't get it and I'm tired of you guys treating me like I'm an outsider. I'm part of this group too you know.

Cory: hey man, relax. You are part of the group. It's just that everyone's jealous. Including me. We'll get over it.

Chord: okay, fine but jealous over what?

Darren: Are you dense?

Kevin: Seriously dude. If Darren can call you out then something's wrong here.

Darren: Hey!

Kevin: shh! Well, Chord…you really have no idea what this is about?

Chord: well yeah. You guys are upset you didn't get a duet with Amber which I get because she's an amazing singer. I mean I've wanted to duet with her since the first time I heard her sing. I can understand why you guys are jealous but that's not my fault.

Harry: [getting up] it's not about the duets anymore Chord.

Chris: I'm going to get Danish. I'm not sticking around for this moronocity [walks away from his friends]

Chord: Tell me what it's about so I can tell you guys that you're all wrong.

Darren: [laughs] we're not wrong. Trust me.

Chord looks at them confused pleading for an answer

Mark: There's something going on between you two.

Chord: Between me and Amber? [laughs. Although he wishes it were true, it wasn't happening but he wasn't going to admit that to his friends] Nothing is going on between us. We're good friends trust me. She helped me through a hard break up and we hang out. You guys hang out too you know.

Cory: So if one of us went up to Amber and professed our love for her, you wouldn't care?

Chord: [something in his stomach wasn't sitting right. He didn't know what this feeling was. Was it jealousy? ] no, I wouldn't

Kevin: If I went up to her the moment she walks in and tell her she looks smokin', you won't care?

Chord: Not if it's true. I mean, I'm sure she looks great

Darren: If I tell you that we spent the whole night watching the first three Harry potters and making muffins, you won't want to kill me?

Chord: [his heart was really racing now. Somehow in his head he thought that if Amber did want to be someone else it would be Darren] no Darren, you're my bro.

Kevin: you're the worst liar I have ever met in my life.

Darren: you should listen to him, he's a professional liar

Kevin: Dude? Really?

Chord: [laughing] you guys think I have the hots for Amber. I think she's attractive, I think she's talented but I have no romantic feelings for her. None whatsoever. I'm not her type and she's not mine. Plain and simple.

Darren: Now I know you're lying. Did we attend the same after party for the SAG's? you two danced all night.

Chord: she's a good dancer

Kevin: So am I. Why didn't you dance with me.

Chord: I don't think I need to answer that.

Darren: Heather's a great dancer. Why didn't you dance with her?

Chord: Because Amber was sitting right next to me

Cory: because, you switched seats with Lea!

Chord: I wanted to tell her how well she handled the interview with E!

Darren: so, why didn't you switch back

Chord: BECAUSE! Because for once in the last 4 weeks, I was having fun and I didn't have to think about my break up. Because I was actually enjoying myself. Because I finally had a good interview without worrying about wanting to punch the paparazzi. Because Amber makes me feel good.

Kevin: I thought so.

Chord: BUT that doesn't mean I want to be with her.

Kevin: Why not? What's the big deal.

Chord: I'm done with this conversation.

Darren: okay. But when I ask her out on a proper date, remember back to this time.

Kevin: You won't do such things because I'm pretty sure I will be the one to do that.

Mark: [sighs] what these loons are trying to say is if one of us ends up actually dating Amber…remember we bought this up with you. We didn't have to. Hell, if Di knew we were on speaking terms with you, she'd kill us.

Kevin: yeah a slow slow death

Darren: She'd take away my baking utensils

Kevin shot Darren a look

Chord: Di?

Cory: We won't get into that now. Anyway, I'm sorry man I guess we were mistaken.

Kevin: yeah, maybe you don't have feelings for Amber after all.

Harry: So it doesn't bother you that I went to her house the other day? Our dogs had aplaydate.

Chord: Don't you have a girlfriend?

Harry: Yes. But are dogs are in love [looks up towards the sky smitten]

Darren: Really? [beaming] that's so cute. Do you have pictures?

Kevin: [rolling his eyes] I'm the only sane one here.

Photographer: [on the phone walking back into the room.] okay Ryan. Yes Ryan. Of course Ryan. Sure thing. I'll tell him right now. CHORD! CHORD? Where are you?

Chord: [getting up] I'm right here.

Photographer[looking at him up and down]: okay, this won't do. Go to wardrobe.

Chord: [confused] okay. But you chose this outfit. I thought it was okay.

Photographer: [nervous] listen to me kid. Human nature is number 5 on the itunes list. You and Ms. Riley are what we in show business like to call the "it couple". Ryan needs you two on the front page. This outfit is cute for the boys shoot but you and Amber need to look HOT. I mean hot hot hot. I mean, so hot that people will want to buy your clothes, boys will want to be you and girls will want to be her.

Chord: [nervously] Does Amber know?

Photographer: They're working on her now.

Chord: okay. I'll go to wardrobe.

Photographer: oh and Chord? Ryan wants you two to kiss. He wants passionate not boy next door. You got it?

Chord: [laughs nervously] got it. [to himself: oh shit]

The boys were all giving him the death stare now.

Kevin: [shouting out to Chord as he goes into the next room] That should be easy for you bro since you have no feelings for her. Huh? [laughs and sits back down next to Darren]

Darren: I wonder what she's going to be wearing. It's gonna be sexy and I don't think I can handle that.

Kevin: [smacks Darren] snap out of it. You're a man. Be a man!

Chris walks in with his Danish and coffee.

Chris: just took a peek at the ladies. Looking hot in their mj costumes but you have to see what Amber has on. I've never seen her look this good. [smiling. Knowing he was stirring the pot]

Kevin: hotter than the essence shoot?

Chris: She's going to make that shoot look like readers digest after this. I wonder why she looks so smoking.

Mark: Because Ryan is a traitor.

Darren: [shaking his knees while sitting] I'm gonna need a muffin. Make that two. [gets up]

Kevin follows.

Chris looks at the boys and laughs.

Chris: This is priceless. You guys are something else.

The other guys sit around waiting for the girls.

Photographer: Okay ladies, you guys go first then Amber you will come out with Chord.

Amber:[ from the next room] are you sure you look okay? Isn't this too risqué for seventeen magazine?

Photographer: you're talking to a genius here! Chord and any guys with testosterone is gonna love it.

Amber: But it's very not like me…

Photographer: You look amazing girl. No worries. Okay ladies come in. we're ready for you. Amber wait for my call.

The ladies come out looking absolutely stunning. Chris and the guys are admiring them, cat calling and making them laugh. Darren and Kevin walk in pale as ghosts.

Mark: you guys look like shit. What happened

Kevin: we saw

Darren: everything

Kevin: it was

Darren: spectacular

Kevin: I can't

Darren: process thoughts

Kevin: she looked like

Darren: and angel

Kevin: a Goddess

Darren: A super model

Kevin: I need a cold shower

Darren: Ditto

Kevin: Chord's going to

Darren: loose his shit

The boys started laughing and waited for the onscreen couple to come out. This was going to be good.
