Sing It Loud Chapter 10, a glee fanfic

Cori walked into the school with bright red hair. Winter break had passed and Jasmine was going to be coming back to school. She had moved into Aria's house. It was a bit of an adjustment considering that Aria's family was rich as she grew up poor.

She walked into the choir room and waited for Sebastian to come in. He walked in all eyes were on Jasmine.

"Welcome back, Songbirds." Sebastian declared. "And I'd like to give a special welcome back to Jasmine. It's good that you're feeling better. Now I'd like to announce the theme for this week. This week's theme will be reality shows: American Idol, The Voice, both versions of The X-Factor, the shows that made people famous."

"Does it have to be one of those shows?" Cori asked.

"No it could be anyone who got famous from a reality show. For example, Christina Perri and A Great Big World got famous from shows that they weren't even competing on." He explained. "Would anyone like to go first?"

"I'll go." Abby volunteered as she got up.

Heart beats fast, colors and promises
How to be brave, how can I love
When I'm afraid to fall but watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years, I'll love for a thousand more

At that point, Kayla stood up.

Time stands still, beauty and all she is
I will be brave, I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath, every hour has come to this

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have love you
For a thousand years I'll love for a thousand more
And all along I have known I will find you
Time has brought your heart to me, I have loved you
For a thousand years, I'll love you for a thousand more

The rest of the room clapped as they finished. After the bell rang, the two of them decided to talk in the hall.

"I wasn't expecting you to come in like that." Abby admitted.

"Abby I think that song made me realize that I love you." Kayla stated.

"Wow." Abby responded. "We've only been going out for a few weeks."

"You don't love me, do you?" Kayla asked. "I messed up, didn't I? I'm so sorry. I can't believe that I did that."

"Kayla, calm down." Abby told her. "I don't love you because I feel like I don't know you well enough, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to break up with you. You just need to slow down a little."

"I don't really have a lot of experience dating." Kayla replied.

"Have you dated anyone?" The redhead questioned.

"Once, but it didn't turn out well." Kayla explained. "My best friend Gina and I got together, and her family wasn't really cool with it. She ran away and no one's heard from her since. I'm starting to think that she's dead."

Abby then gave the brunette a tight hug.

"I never knew that your life was that bad." She stated. "This is the stuff that I wanted to know about you? So how do you feel about Chinese tonight?"

"I feel like it sounds great." Kayla stated as she gave Abby a kiss on the cheek.

Elsewhere in the school, Cori was having lunch with Addie. They were seated close to each other so they could touch if they wanted to.

"So is it okay if I come and help you babysit tonight?" Addie questioned.

"You know I could probably bring Sara over some time you need to watch your sisters." Cori suggested. "I don't like to introduce her to new people, but they're your family."

"You're going to have an interesting time when she gets older." Addie noted.

"You know the song that I'm singing today has to do with Sara." Cori told her.

"What is it?" Her girlfriend asked curiously.

"You're just going to have to wait and see like everybody else." Cori said, waving her finger.

That afternoon, Cori was in the choir room singing.

She been my queen since I was 16 alright
We want the same things, we dream the same dreams alright
I got it all cause she is the one, when I'm with her I always have fun alright
I know I know I know for sure

Everybody wanna steal my girl, everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole world, find another one cause she belongs to me
Everybody wanna steal my girl, everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole world, find another one cause she belongs to me
She belongs to me

She knows, she knows that I never let her down before
She knows she knows that I'm never gonna let another take her from me now

Everybody wanna steal my girl, everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole world, well find another one cause she belongs to me
Everybody wanna steal my girl, everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole world, find another one cause she belongs to me
She belongs to me, she belongs to me, she belongs to me

"Another great love song." Sebastian told her.

"Sorry to interrupt, but that wasn't a love song." I declared. "At least not in the traditional sense because I was singing about my daughter."

"Oh well, it was still a great song." Sebastian declared in embarrassment. "That's all the time that we have for today."

After the rehearsal was over, Sebastian knew that he needed to make his way to dinner. We wasn't going to lie that he was a little jealous of the love that the students had, while he had none of his own. He really did want to help them, but he could not help but wonder why he had to be miserable.

When he got to the restaurant, he couldn't help but notice someone that he hadn't seen in a long time.

"Dave." He greeted him.

"Do I know you?" Dave asked him.

"Well not really, we met at Scandals one time in high school and I was kind of a jerk to you." Sebastian explained. "I'm Sebastian. So were you waiting for someone by any chance?"

"No, I was just getting something to eat after work?" Dave answered. "I own a local sports agency that represents local athletes, but it's growing. I just signed Billy Hamilton."

"Do you wanna sit with me?" Sebastian asked.

"Sure." Dave stated. "So what are you doing?"

"I'm the choir director at Dalton Academy." He answered. "This is the first year that school is coed."

"I thought the Glee Club got disbanded due to that doping scandal." Dave declared.

"We just got reinstated this year." Sebastian told him. "So how's the rest of your life going?"

"If you're asking if I have a boyfriend, I do not." Dave remarked.

Needless to say, Sebastian was in a good mood when he left the restaurant.

In the morning, he decided to show off his vocal chops.

Well, I was movin' at the speed of sound
Head spinnin', couldn't find my way around, and
Didn't know that I was goin' down, yeah, yeah
Where I been; well, it's all a blur
What I was lookin' for I'm not sure
Too late and didn't see it coming, yeah, yeah

Then I crashed into you and I went up in flames
Could've been the death of me but then you breathed your breath in me
Then I crashed into you like a runaway train
You will consumed me but I can't walk away

Your face, your eyes are burnt into me
You save me, you gave me just what I need
Oh, just what I need

Then I crashed into you and then I crashed into you
And then I crashed into you and then I crashed into you
Then I crashed into you like a runaway train
You will consume me but I can't walk away
Cause I crashed into you

After school, Cori decided to bring Sara over to Addie's house. It was basically co-babysitting. She had brought her diaper bag with her in case it was needed. Currently, Sara was playing with Addie's youngest sister Gracie.

"So why do you dye your hair so much?" Addie asked curiously.

"I don't want to be the girl that you always get the same thing from. School uniforms mean that I don't get to wear what I want, so I resort to other forms of expression." Cori explained.

It was at that time, Addie's mom walked in. She was a bit surprised by the sight.

"Mom, this is my girlfriend Cori and her daughter Sara." Addie explained.

"Did you say her daughter?" Her mother, Jordyn, asked in confusion.

"Yes, I have a daughter." Cori stated before she held her hand out. "It's nice to meet you."

In the morning, Jasmine finally took the opportunity to sing.

"This is for all of you who helped me get better." She declared.

Blue and black, heart torn now
You uncover what's beneath my skin
There and back there's no doubt
Your touch is my medicine

I'll be okay cause you heal me

And I give you all my pieces broken
In your hands there's nothing you can't fix
My heart is frayed, my scars are open
So put me back together now stitch by stitch
So put me back together now stitch by stitch

I'm still afraid of falling somehow it's taking over me
Don't ever let me let it go

There are back there's no doubt
Your touch makes me whole again

On Friday, the group assembled for a performance. They would be performing in front of the school as the first advertisement for the winter formal that was in two weeks.

Speak to me, you're walking closer and it's hard to breathe
I should be running but the heart's naïve and I expect too much
You were good to me, I left a scar that no one else can see
And now you're back here and reminding me that I lost way too much

And you know that night I almost said I loved you
And you almost said it back

Are we ever gonna be more than a memory, no matter how lame my apology
I let go of you, you let go of me are we gonna be more than a memory
Are you just gonna stand in front of me, pretend that I'm not your destiny
I'm not over you, are you over me are we gonna be more than a memory

Stay with me, I really need to hear you breathe
If words can't speak lay your body next to me

Sebastian smiled, noticing that Dave was watching the performance.

So Sebastian has his love interest and Jasmine is back in school. Also Addie's mom played Lucy Liu appears. The songs are "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri (from So You Think You Can Dance) with Steve Kazee, "Steal My Girl" by One Direction (from X-Factor UK), "Crashed" by Daughtry (From American Idol), "Stitch by Stitch" by Javier Colon (from The Voice), and "More Than A Memory" by Carly Rae Jepsen (From Canadian Idol).
