A/N: I should slow down because I just barely finished Chapter 15, which is the "Smooth Criminal" performance. :) I hope you don't mind Lexi taking Santana's place. ;3 It was just a perfect opportunity and I found Santana's involvement - while lovely, quite random. She'd never interacted with Sebastian except for the "Michael" episode and the "On My Way" episode briefly. It would've been more interesting to have Kurt confront Sebastian or something, but oh well.
Before I forget: OH MY GOD GUYS. Did you know if you search of "Sebastian S." and "OC" on the Glee fanfictions, this fanfiction comes up as the most reviewed?! You guys are AH-MAY-ZING! *hearts*
I also need to remember that I'm changing this to an "M" rating. There's no smut of what I have so far, but there's a make-out session in this one and there's nudity in chapter 15. It's just a precaution - for now. Smut will come up eventually - after all, Sebastian is quite the seducer and Lexi's virginity wouldn't be mentioned unless I was gonna do something with it in the future. Hahah. ;)
And now begins the "Michael" arc, which will span from this chapter to the sixteenth chapter. I know - that's a long time, but Sebastian only appears in seven episodes of Glee, and of those five, he hardly participated in the last one he was in, which was episode 1 of Season 5 so I wanna milk it for all its worth.
I said you wanna be startin' somethin'.
Sebastian Smythe: Jett misses you.
Lexi Hummel: :( I do, too. I'll visit him tonight.
Sebastian Smythe: Alright, see you in a few hours, sexy. ;)
Lexi smiled softly to herself as she locked her phone just as Santana spoke up. "Admit it, Wonder Triplets, the only reason why the New Directions beat the Troubletones at Sectionals is because that pervy clown judge was freakin' high as a kite."
"And we did Michael Jackson, you guys didn't," Kurt replied simple. "But that was like, weeks ago. Why are you still obsessing?"
Mercedes grabbed Kurt and explained, "One word, Kurt: Michael."
"You guys, fear not," Blaine spoke up. "The world tour of the Cirque du Soleil tribute show, Immortal, to Michael Jackson, is coming to Columbus in June. We should all go." Lexi nodded in agreement, adjusting her bag.
"You don't get it," Mercedes said, approaching the curly-haired-boy (but no one knew but Lexi). "I don't want to see the spectacle that is Michael, I want to be the spectacle."
"Hey, guys," Will said, approaching the six, seeing them gathered in the hallway. "Everything okay?"
"Look," Mercedes sighed, "we love being back in New Directions, but we hate that we missed our one chance this year to do Michael."
"Yeah, I get it," Will nodded in agreement. "You know, I've been thinking a lot about Regionals, and maybe we can do Michael again."
"Well, I, for one, know exactly what song we should do to start Michael week with," Blaine grinned, and all of his companions looked at him with interest.
You got to be startin' somethin'.
"So you don't have any idea on what to do for Regionals yet?" Sebastian asked as he and Lexi walked to find a seat in the Lima Bean.
Lexi gave Sebastian a look. "Why do I have a feeling you know something that I'm aware of that you're not?"
Sebastian looked down at Lexi and leaned down, pecking the tip of her nose, making her scrunch it up. "You're lucky I understood what you said," Sebastian replied, taking her right hand in his left.
"I'd throw this mocha in your face, but it's not nearly scalding enough," Lexi heard an all-too familiar voice say.
"Okay, but just, since you guys are so jazzed about him, I think it's a good idea for Regionals," Rachel said, just as Lexi spotted her, Santana, Artie, Blaine, and Kurt gathered around one of the faux-lounges for larger groups.
"Well, that might not be the best idea," Sebastian drawled, causing the New Directions members to look up. Sebastian nodded to one of them. "Hey, Blaine. Hello, everyone else."
"Does he live here or something?" Kurt asked incredulously. "Seriously, you are always here."
"Why don't you think that's a good idea?" Artie asked, looking up at the taller male.
"Because we're doing MJ for Regionals," Sebastian replied simply. "You see, Warblers drew first position, so as soon as I heard what your plan was, I changed the setlist accordingly."
Rachel looked at the couple incredulously. "I'm sorry, how – how did you hear?" Her eyes immediately shot to Lexi, who released Sebastian's hand and held up both of her hands defensively.
"I didn't say anything to him," Lexi replied as her teammates' eyes fell on her.
"Blaine told me this morning," Sebastian replied, gesturing to the sheepish-looking boy, making all the New Directions members turn to him. "I just called for a tip on how to get red wine out of my blazer piping and he would not stop going on about it."
"I may have mentioned it," Blaine admitted with a small look on his face, showing his guilt.
"How often do you talk?" Kurt demanded, looking at his boyfriend.
Sebastian faked an astonished look. "Oh, my God, hey, Kurt. I didn't recognize you. You're wearing boy clothes for once." Lexi nudged Sebastian, throwing him a look to tell him to behave. Sebastian simply smirked, throwing his free arm around Lexi and pulling her tiny body next to his. He leaned down, kissing her temple.
"All right, twink," Santana said, standing up, pointing a finger at Sebastian. "I think it's time that I show you a little Lima Heights hospitality."
Sebastian pulled away from Lexi briefly before rolling his eyes. "Unless you want to join your relatives in prison, that's probably not the best idea. You see, my dad is sort of what you'd call a state's attorney," he informed. "But if you had a piñata you wanted to delivered, I bet he could make sure that got to them. All right, so here's what you guys should know: I am captain of the Warblers now and I am tired of playing nice."
The New Directions looked at Sebastian incredulously. Lexi looked up at Sebastian, furrowing her eyebrows slightly. She had forgotten just how mean Sebastian really could be. She was so used to him being nice to her, that she simply forgot that Sebastian Thomas Smythe did not do nice.
"I was going to show Lexi a little routine we've been working on," Sebastian winked. "Why don't you guys stop on by, too?" The girl jumped when Sebastian tapped her butt gently and he said, "I'll meet you at Dalton."
He walked out of the Lima Bean, and Lexi turned to look at her teammates.
Kurt was the first to speak up. "I really don't like that you're with him. He's a total jerk, Lexi."
"I forgot," Lexi replied simply.
"Forgot?" Rachel asked in a high-pitched tone. "You don't forget your boyfriend is an evil, manipulating little… little…" She searched for an insult.
"Meerkat," Kurt provided.
"Meerkat," Rachel confirmed.
Lexi pursed her lips and replied, "Okay, first off, it's not like he's abusing me or anything, okay? Yeah, Sebastian's kind of mean–"
Artie scoffed. "Kind of?"
"Okay, a lot mean," Lexi edited. "But he's really nice to me. And his little brother."
"I still don't like him," Kurt said, earning collective noises of agreement from everyone but Lexi and Blaine.
Lexi frowned, but decided to drop the subject. "Let's just go to Dalton."
You're stuck in the middle.
Lexi was the first to enter the Warblers' grand rehearsal room, followed by Blaine and Kurt, who helped Artie. Santana and Rachel followed shortly after and they turned to the Warblers, who had already begun harmonizing upon seeing Lexi arrive. Sebastian slid out to the front towards is guests, teasing them:
Ooohoo!
Let me tell yah now
Ooh
When I had you to myself,
I didn't want you around
Sebastian approached Rachel, who gave a fake smile, ignoring him. He smirked, knowing she was definitely feeling threatened. He was Sebastian, after all:
Those pretty faces always make you
Stand out in a crowd
He flicked a finger under Santana's chin, causing the cheerleader to scowl. Picking on her was an amazing feeling, Sebastian had to admit:
Someone picked you from the bunch,
Sebastian got close enough to Blaine to make him feel uncomfortable, causing him and Kurt to move to one of the many couches. Lexi sat on the armrest of another couch, with her boyfriend tossing her a flirty look:
One glance is all it took
And now it's much too late for me
To take a second look
The Warblers came together again and Sebastian stood in the center with the Warblers harmonizing while moving to the music perfectly:
Oh baby,
Give me one more chance (To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me (Back in your heart)
Oh, darlin' I was blind to let you go (Let you go, baby)
But now since I've seen you in his arms (I want you back)
If Lexi had to be honest, she was actually quite amused by her teammates' poker faces. Kurt was giving no shits, Rachel looked fake, Santana looked annoyed, Artie was ticked off, and Blaine was emotionless. Lexi, on the other hand, was actually impressed at Sebastian's slightly teasing dance moves, which… well, to be honest, made her want to drag him back to his house and have a hot make-out session with him or two… or ten.
She shook her head, clearing her thoughts as Sebastian continued to sing:
Oh I do now (I want you back)
Ooh, ooh baby (I want you back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I want you back)
Na, na, na, na
Sebastian approached Lexi, singing close to her ear. She felt his hot breath against her face, and she blushed softly. He smirked internally. Out of everyone he teased, Lexi had the best reactions of all:
Trying to live without your love
Is one long sleepless night
Let me show you, girl,
That I know wrong from right
He backed up, satisfied at his girlfriend's flushed appearance before heading over to where Santana, Rachel, and Artie were. He continued to sing as he lighted pushed Santana back, causing Rachel's jaw to drop and Lexi's brows shoot up in amazement. She kept an eye on the Latina and once she was sure the girl wasn't going to punch her boyfriend, she refocused on listening to Sebastian's voice:
Every street you walk on,
I leave tear stains on the ground
Followin' the girl I didn't even want around.
He walked back to the center, falling in sync with the Warblers:
Oh baby,
All I need is one more chance (To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me (Back in your heart)
Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go (Let you go, baby)
But now since I've seen you in his arms
Sebastian sauntered over to Lexi, grabbing her hand, twirling her around a couple of times:
All I want…
All I need…
All I want!
All I need!
He set her back near the couch as he lined up with Warblers as they split in half, one to look at Blaine, Kurt, and Lexi, while the others looked at Santana, Rachel, and Artie:
Is one more chance (To show you that I love you)
Baby (baby) baby (baby) baby (baby)
(I want you back)
Yeah, oh, baby,
I was blind to let you go (Let you go, baby)
But now since I've seen you in his arms (I want you back)
Yeah, oh, baby,
I need one more chance, hah
(To show you that I love you)
Oh, baby!
Oh! Oh, oh! (I want you back)
Oh, I do now (I want you back)
Ooh, ooh, baby (I want you back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I want you back)
Na, na, na, na (I want you back)
The Warblers ended together in unison and Sebastian was the first to move. "Well, if you guys wanna forfeit now, you can go ahead. Or, Blaine, if you wanna rejoin the group you abandoned," Sebastian offered, gesturing to the Warblers.
Blaine shook his head softly. "I used to be proud of being a Warbler. Not because we were good, but because we were really classy." He leaned and said in a low tone, "None of that was classy."
Lexi's eyebrows arched. Ouch, she thought and Sebastian scoffed quietly.
"C'mon, guys, let's go," Blaine said to the others. Lexi glanced back and forth between Sebastian and the New Directions. She held out her phone, saying she'd text him later before giving him a thumbs up. He nodded with a more genuine smile on his face.
He then spotted a flash of red and then smirked. "And what did you think Shaqueera?"
Santana turned around. "I thought you sucked, Fievel. If that's your best MJ, I'm gonna wipe the floor at Regionals with your wannabe-Disney-Prince haircut." Sebastian scoffed quietly and Lexi skipped over to him.
"Bye," she said, before pecking him on the lips, earning a few wiggling eyebrows from his teammates. "You guys did great," she said honestly, before running after the New Directions, just in time to hear Blaine ask Santana how she thought Sebastian really did.
"I think we've got a serious problem," Santana admitted and Lexi agreed. While she was proud of her boyfriend's amazing performance, he was her competition, and he seriously brought it.
Lexi looked at her teammates and said, "We should probably have a very serious team meeting."
"I recorded them," Artie admitted. "Since all of us weren't here, I figured it would be best to have everyone listen to it."
"You're not gonna run off and tell your boyfriend now, are you, Very Mini White-Kobe?" Santana demanded, crossing her arms and looking down at the short basketball player.
Lexi frowned. "Okay, first off, don't call me that. Second of all, Sebastian respects me and I respect him. He invited us here and willingly performed that instead of blindsiding you. He has his thing with the Warblers and I have my thing with you guys. There are other things in life besides show choirs, okay?"
"Y'know, you're kind of cute when you get all mad," Santana admitted nonchalantly. Her teammates looked at her incredulously. "What? I'm just stating the truth."
Artie sighed, though he had to admit. Lexi was a looker. "We should just head back to Lima now. I'll e-mail everyone the recording tonight."
Blaine glanced at Lexi and the two shared a look. The Warblers were serious competition, and they'd have to step up their game if they were going to win.
Because you know it's true.
Lexi let out a sharp gasp as she was thrown onto the large, plush bed. Sebastian leaned over her, recapturing her lips with his. Lexi's hands immediately went to her boyfriend of just shy of twenty days.
He was an amazing kisser and she could feel her toes curl as Sebastian's tongue met hers inside her mouth. "Sebastian…" Lexi breathed out, feeling him run a smooth hand up her right leg. He hitched her toned leg over his hip and pressed his lips back down over hers.
Their hot breaths mixed as the room fell silent except for their heavy breathing and the sound of their lips coming together, mixed with the occasional sounds of pleasure.
Sebastian's Dalton blazer was discarded haphazardly on the ground, his tie loosened and the top couple of buttons open, exposing his toned chest that was dusted with little moles and freckles. He loomed over her, his tie brushing against Lexi's clothed chest as he moved above her, kissing her deeply.
He ran his hands up Lexi's side, feeling her soft, toned skin. His thumb brushed over part of her abs, and they clenched in anticipation as he pushed up her shift slowly, making sure to run his fingers over the slowly-exposed, alabaster skin.
Through her haze, Lexi could hear something yip. Their kisses slowed as another one occurred, followed by a sequence of them. The teenagers peered to the source of the noise, and saw Jett, who had awakened from his nap upon hearing the sounds.
He darted over to the bed, hopping up and down in hopes to climb on. Sebastian sighed softly and rolled over to the side, next to Lexi. Cock-blocked by a dog, he thought quietly. Well, to be honest, he knew he was going to take a cold shower, regardless.
It had been occurring a lot as of the last couple of weeks. With back-to-back games until recently, Lexi's adrenaline was on an absolute high most of the time, and that was when she was particularly frisky. He smirked softly, taking off his tie while he watched Lexi sit up before crawling over to the edge of the bed.
She cooed softly at the puppy, and Sebastian's eyes fell on the girl's rounded butt, straining against her skinny jeans. He tapped it playfully and Lexi gasped, sitting up quickly with the puppy in her arms. "Sebastian!" she scolded.
"What a different tone you used compared to just until now," Sebastian drawled, scooting so he could rest against his plush pillows of his backboard.
Lexi placed Jett on the bed and the puppy awkwardly waddled about over the plush comforter, still not used to the soft ground he walked upon that was known as Sebastian's bed. He yipped at Sebastian, who gave a small smile and sat up, scratching the back of the dog's neck.
She looked at Sebastian shyly and Sebastian's smile grew wider. He sat up straighter and patted the spot next to him. Lexi moved to sit next to him, but then an idea popped into her head. Sebastian flinched in shock as Lexi suddenly laid down on his lap. Her face was a bright red, but she didn't relent, firmly keeping the back of her head on Sebastian's thighs.
"Bold," Sebastian commented casually, running a hand seductively over Lexi's arm. He looked down at her, casting a shadow over her face. She shuddered as electric shocks travelled through her body. "You're so confident on the court, but you're actually quite the shy one off it."
"Actually, it's just you," Lexi refuted. Sebastian's eyes widened a fraction, but he quickly reigned in his surprise. "I don't know why," she admitted as an afterthought. "With Samantha, it was… exhilarating and exciting, with the two guys before you, it was boring. But… you make me feel strange."
Sebastian smirked. "I'm betting it's a good strange."
Lexi quirked an eyebrow up at him. "It could be bad."
He scoffed, moving to brush his long fingers over her cheek. Her eyelashes fluttered as they relaxed before she opened her eyes again. "I'm me, Sexy Lexi. Get real."
His left hand moved up her bare leg and the pads of his fingertips moved seductively over the skin. She shuddered under his touch, their eyes connecting.
"You know," Sebastian drawled so quietly, it was like a whisper. His eyes moved to Jett, who was chasing his tail enthusiastically before looking down at Lexi again. "I've never touched a girl's body before you."
"Oh, yeah?" Lexi asked, feeling him finger the hem of her t-shirt. "How's it feel?"
"Soft," Sebastian admitted, "but firm. Not hard like a guy's, but I'm willing to bet you're firmer than most girls." To prove his point, he tapped his fingers against her toned stomach.
Well, Lexi was an athlete, after all. She'd been training since she was very young to stay fit and it only got more so when she hit middle school and started playing basketball competitively.
"I am," Lexi informed. "Samantha had the softest skin – or at least, I thought so – until I met Kurt. Now his skin is as smooth as a baby's butt." Sebastian rolled his eyes at the mention of her cousin, but Lexi ignored him. "She had delicate fingers, long, but not as long as yours." She reached up, touching the fingers that were skimming against her collarbone.
Lexi suddenly sat up, picking up Jett in the process. The puppy yipped and Lexi cradled him. She smiled when the dog pawed at her and she walked over to the puppy playpen/kennel located in the corner of Sebastian's room. She placed him inside and Jett yipped, bouncing, wanting to leave, but Lexi bent down, looking at the dog.
"Stay here, okay, Jett? Mommy and Daddy are going to have quality time," she advised. "You don't want Daddy to kick you out, now do you?"
The dog yipped in response before running over to his water bowl, lapping a few times before going to bite his chew toy. Lexi smiled before prancing back to where Sebastian was still half-lying, half-sitting. She bounced onto the bed, causing the tall boy to bounce.
"What's up with that?" Sebastian grinned, sitting up. "Daddy? Mommy?" he mocked.
"Shut up," Lexi replied, throwing her arms around his shoulders. She scooted so she could straddle his lap and Sebastian held her hips. "He's our little baby."
Sebastian rolled his eyes. "Maybe I should've gotten you a hamster."
Lexi gasped. "No! I love Jett!" Hearing his name, the dog barked, most likely sending his love to his owner, too. It was true. Jett was – much to Sebastian's displeasure – Lexi's home and lock screens on her phone for a while.
Of course, now it was Sebastian and Jett that were her home and lock screens, as she had snapped a picture of him playing with Jett the other night.
He smirked before moving his hands down, placing his large hands over the round globes of her bottom. "What was that about Mommy-Daddy quality time?"
Lexi smiled softly, before pulling him in, placing her lips over his. She hummed softly into the kiss in satisfaction and could feel Sebastian's smile.
Like any male, Sebastian's hands began to wander, moving around her waist and her lower back, specifically. He grabbed handfuls of her butt, which was getting toner these days, groping them as Lexi smiled against his kiss.
"Are you trying to tell me you're an ass kind of guy?" Lexi said, giving him multiple pecks. She pulled back and placed her nose over his, wiggling them to give him Eskimo kisses.
Sebastian smirked charmingly at her. "Maybe I'm just a Lexi kind of guy," he replied, before capturing her lips with his again.
Sing it to the world.

Q&A
RHatch89asks: How will Lexi react to Sebastian's scheming?
That's actually something that will be revealed next chapter, which is titled, "Bad". ;)
SwedishFanFictionLover asks: (1) Could Lexi and Sebastian be pansexual? Since they are gay but have fallen for each other anyway (2) I love Fall Out Boy - will we see/read more perfomances with their songs in the story?
(1) They could be, but I'm sticking with the fact that they are gay and they are each others' exceptions. Because if they were to be attracted to anyone else, it would be a person of the same gender. Pansexual means to be attracted no matter what, but Sebastian is still attracted to men and Lexi, while Lexi is attracted to just women and Sebastian. (2) YES! Of course! I'm glad you guys loved Lexi's "Thnks fr the Mmrs" performance and they're actually my favorite American band, so I made them Lexi's, too, because I wanted to share something with my character. xD
RHatch89: Thank you!
Lucy Greenhill: Thank you! I hope you enjoy this arc! xoxo
Briana Bailon: Hahah~ I have something in mind for Samantha, but it won't be until WAY later! :)
Momsen-xxxx: Wait until the next chapter if you thought last chapter was full of feels. Hahah.
Sing97: Thank you!
gossamermouse101: Right? I totally understand that they don't wanna follow the comics (I mean, look at Arrow), but still. :/
Scribbled Truth: Aww thank you! I'm glad you like this! :) It makes me very happy when you guys leave messages like "the best." Hahah! Totally makes the time I set out to write these stories worth it! ^^
GuestLiz: I'm actually hoping to have the flashback of Lexi being kicked out in some future chapter, so yeah. :) I really need to get started on writing NLMN. I'm literally everywhere in the chapter. I've written parts of the beginning, parts of the middle, and parts of the end, but not all of it. :/ Here's to hoping to getting it out this weekend!
kurtjay: No. I don't watching/listen/read anything Korean-related. I never got into that hype. I'm more of a J-drama/J-pop/manga kind of girl. I didn't start watching American shows until last year. xD So yeah... Oh that's cool! And yeah, why would you want Samantha when you have Sebastian? ;)
BecauseYourWorthIt: Awww, girl you flatter me! I'll admit when I saw your name I recognized it from NLMN and questioned why you were here. xD Not that I'm complaining of course. I actually remember my reviewers' usernames, especially since I take time to talk to you guys here. I know it's not much, but just knowing a little bit of you guys is the least I can do for you guys reading my stories. :) Thank you! I'm hoping to update NLMN this weekend (hopefully)!
Ayase Yuuki: They believe disability is a weakness. They want nothing but to win. They follow a sense of "norm" and believe that disabled people are just people who try to take their tax money and have everything served to them - because, sad fact: some people do do that. I mean, Rachel and Finn kind of did that for Finn to get a job. I'm not saying anything bad about that - it's just an example that there are horrible people in the world that pretend to be either homeless/disabled, which ruins the chances for people who are actually homeless/disabled to gain any opportunities, and it's just sad. Hahah - I had to change it because I didn't mean it! Whoops!
Peaches: Thank you! And yes! Sebastian doesn't hide his surface feelings, but we all know he cares more for Lexi than he lets on. ;)
Panda-Chan8: RIGHTTT? And awww. Harley, right? :)
SwedishFanFictionLover: Thank you! I absolutely loved Sebastian. The Warblers are actually my favorite group in the whole series. The New Directions have way too many issues and Kurt and Blaine are my favorite main characters (and they're both ex-Warblers). :) I'm glad you truly enjoy Lexi's character. She's a challenge for me because I actually come from quite a loving family and I'm not gay either, so having parents shun you and not accept who you are is a new thing for me. Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of Lauliver, either. SnowBarry is cute, but eh. I don't know - I'm planning on writing a Flash fanfiction with Barry, so maybe that's why I don't ship Barry with anyone? XD Well, that's a lie, I loved that Barry and Felicity kissed. But Felicity belongs with Oliver, even though Balicity isn't so bad. xD
my otp: Hahah. Olicity ftw. *hearts*
BeautifulDisasterMegan: I didn't even realize I added Barry's quirks in. xD But then again, Sebastian was hardly ever expanded on. :/ I'm glad you ship Selexi! :D
MrsTomMarvoloRiddle: Thank you!
A/N: Holy shit - I love interacting with you guys, but it makes the ending so much longer. xD It's okay, though. You should see my NLMN end notes some time. XDD I think long notes are becoming my thing. But I truly do love taking time out and talking to you guys. It actually takes me an extra half hour to hour to talk to you guys, which actually makes me feel like I actually have friends. LOL. Remember to review my loves and I'll see you again soon! :)
