'BRITISH MUSIC' was scribbled across the white board in Will's familiar handwriting. Adam and Dev walked in together followed by Cassie, who was being trailed by Cyrus. Will smiled as Luke and Ella walked in his arm thrown over her in a protective manner and a rose in her hand, it was Valentine Week in McKinley, and people were starting to get a little loved up. Hayley walked in alone and worried looking for Ade. She stopped in front of the boys and whispered "Have you seen her?" When Adam shook his head she sighed and took her regular seat waiting for her girlfriend.
"Happy Valentines!" Will cheered out as the group applauded. Adrianna burst in and quickly hurried to her seat "Sorry..." She whispered out croakily, she looked tired and rather pale; Adam raised his brow at Hayley who shrugged her shoulders before putting her arm around the girl who pulled away slightly.
"It's okay Ade... "Mr Shue smiled before continuing "The theme has been revealed, British Music" Ade raised a brow and Adam clapped. "As decided Cassie and Ella are going to be performing the duet, which will be 2 become 1 by the spice girls" The girls smirked and high fived each other. "I decided that Adrianna will be doing the solo" He shot the diva a look who nodded tiredly
"So, what would you say the biggest thing to happen in British music was..?" Mr Shue continued.
"Ed Sheeran" Hayley called out.
"One direction" Autumn guessed.
"The beetles!" Cyrus cheered as he high fived Luke.
"Andrew Lloyd Webber" Ade and Adam cried before turning to each other "Twinsies!" They giggled.
Dev however stood up and looked at Schuester. "Mr Shue, let me take this one" He smirked
Dev:

I feel alive and the world I'll turn it inside out - yeah
And floating around in ecstasy
So don't stop me now don't stop me
'Cause I'm having a good time having a good time

Everyone broke into a loud applause as William wrote 'QUEEN' on the board.
"That's only one part of the challenge this week!" Mr Schuester started "Along with a solo or duet from everybody in the group. I want a boy's and a girl's number to see who will be competing for the group number!"
The next day at Cheerio's practise Adam and Cassie were talking about their week's task as Sue burst into the gym angrily. "We have one week left to nationals and all you sloppy, lazy ass babies have done nothing but pump yourselves up with whatever it is you kids call drugs now-a days!" She cried out "Lopez! Tremor!" She called to the both of them "If you do not have the balls or talent to be on this team, I will not hesitate to shoot you out of the cannon that I was not allowed to use on Pierce!"
Nodding both teens ran back out to the rest of the team as they began stretching before breaking out into their nationals routine. Sue sat back angrily and began singing.
Sue:
Hey!
She walks warily down the street
With her brim pulled way down low
Ain't no sound but the sound of her feet
Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone and another one gone
Another one bites the dust, eh
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
How do you think I'm going to get along
Without you when you're gone
I took you for everything that you've got
And kicked you out on your own
Are you happy? Are you satisfied?
How long can you stand the heat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust, hey hey
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
There are plenty of ways that you can hurt a man
And bring him to the ground
You can beat him
You can cheat him
You can treat him bad and leave him
When he's down, yeah
But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you
I'm standing on my own two feet
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
Repeating to the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone and another one gone
Yes, another one bites the dust
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust, hey hey
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
As she sung Sue imagined knocking each one down at the bottom of the pyramid before flicking Adam off the top before snapping back into reality as the music below her stopped.
"Useless sloppy babies, go and shower of that stench, if you can ever get rid of it" She screamed through the bullhorn.
Adam sighed as he walked into the boy's locker room alone; stepping under the spray he reminded himself that it was only one more year till he was out of Lima, in New York, Himself and Ade. Then it clicked, he knew what song he was going to sing for glee.
Strutting into the choir room late, for their lunch session, followed by a few cheerio's in the same get-up Adam pushed in a vacuum as Cyrus and Luke laughed, Hayley smirked and the girls cheered. Mr Shue let a laugh slip out as he said "Take it away Mr Mercury"
Adam:
I want to break free
I want to break free
I want to break free from your lies
You're so self satisfied I don't need you
I've got to break free
God knows God knows I want to break free
I've fallen in love
I've fallen in love for the first time
In love with a world that's real
I've fallen in love yeah
God knows God knows I've fallen in love
It's strange but it's true, hey!
I know I'm different, there's so much I have to do
But I have to be sure
When I walk out that door
Oh how I want to be free baby
Oh how I have to be free
Oh how I want to break free
This existence is wrong
I can't get used to living without living without
Living without hope
It's all a lie
I don't want to live alone
God knows got to make it on my own
So people can't you see
God knows I've got to break free
God knows I need to
God knows I want to break free
After glee Hayley pulled Cassie and Ella aside "I need a favour. Please" she asked. Cassie raised a brow "And why would I help you?" She sneered before Ella pushed her lightly.
"Sure Hayley what can we do?"
Cassie smirked at the girls plan "And you're sure she won't get mad?" She asked confused and Hayley just nodded and walked down the hallway "See you guys later" She called out talking about their afternoon glee rehearsal.
"So Hayley is going to perform her Solo number for us this evening" Mr Shue said wearily, unsure of what he'd seen in the rehearsal of the girls' performance beforehand.
Ade was sat next to Adam in the auditorium and turned to face the boy.
"I know nothing!" He drawled as the girl raised a brow at him.
Cassie and Ella along with four other cheerio's walked out scantily clad in crop tops and high waisted shorts, showing a lot of skin, causing Ade to sit up with a growl.
Hayley:
Are you gonna take me home tonight ?
Ah down beside that red firelight
Are you gonna let it all hang out ?
Fat bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go roundHey I was just a skinny lass
Never knew no good from bad

Ade walked up on stage and glared at Hayley "What was that?"
"A song?" Hayley replied sarcastically and slightly confused
"About my ass...?" Ade waved her arms around angrily
"Well... yeah..."
"Yeah?" Ade mimicked her
"What?"
"What?" Ade mimicked her again before walking toward the stairs again as Hayley grabbed her arm pulling her to face her.
"Hey"
Ade rolled her eyes and let her voice deepen to sound like Hayley "Hey"
"Adrianna stop doing that!" Hayley dropped her arm walking across the stage "Stop pointing at me like that!" Ade instantly dropping her fingers standing still as Hayley began signing
(Bold – Hayley/ Italics – Ade/ Bold Italics – Both)
Here we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Wake the dead, fight the fight
Lady Mercy won't be home tonight
You don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
You're just waiting for the hammer to fall
Hey!
Hayley began mimicking Ade pulling girly faces and pouting her lips
Hey!
Yeah!
Yeah, the hammer to fall!
Every night, and every day
A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face, the western way, babe
Build your muscles as your body decays
Toe your line and play their game
Let the anaesthetic cover it all
Till one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall
Hey! The hammer to fall!
Everyone watched uncomfortably as the girls argued it out on stage.
Rich or poor or famous
For your truth it's all the same
Lock your door but rain is pouring
Through your windowpane (Oh no!)
Baby now your struggle's all in vainWhat the hell we fighting for?
Just surrender and it won't hurt at all
You just got time to say your prayers
While you're waiting for the hammer to, hammer to fall
The hammer to fall
Hey? Yeah?
The hammer to, hammer to, hammer to fall
Give it to me one more time!
Hayley slid onto her knees smirking at Ade with a wink before the British diva rolled her eyes and faked a yawn.
In your dreams, mate.
When the song finished Ade whitened and ran off stage, followed by Hayley. With the tension in the room Mr Shue let the rest of the team leave, with just Adam and Dev left in the auditorium as they sat on the stage staring at each other.
"Adam, want to go on a date... With me?" Dev asked quietly bringing the boys chin upward, so both sets of eyes locked on each other.
Adam nodded and Dev smiled.
After a long silence between the two Adam spoke up.
"I have a good duet, for the both of us to sing, If you want?" Adam asked and Dev nodded before Adam began singing.
(Adam – Italics/ Dev - Bold / Both – Bold Italics)
There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams
Yet slips away from us
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever
Who
There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever
Who
Who dares to love forever
Oh, when love must die!
But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is ours today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever
Forever is ours
Who waits forever, anyway?
After the whole, fat bottom girls' debacle Hayley and Ade made up and walked into glee hand and hand, were Cyrus was talking to the others. "So I want to perform for Cassie..." He continued nodding at the couple who just walked in "So I was thinking, instead of doing Boys versus girls, we could all just sing a group song together... For her..." He rolled off looking around at the doors hoping the girl wouldn't walk in.
After a mutual agreement everyone decided what to perform and when to rehearse it Cassie finally walked in and looked at Mr Shue informing him that she had a number for the day. Cassie took her place in the middle of the choir room with Autumn and Ella as her backup.
Cassie:
Can anybody find me somebody to love
Ooh, each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
(Take a look at yourself) Take a look in the mirror and cry (and cry)
Lord what you're doing to me (yeah yeah)
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody (somebody) ooh somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me somebody to love ?
Yeah
I work hard (she works hard) every day of my life
I work till I ache in my bones
At the end (at the end of the day)
I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord somebody (somebody), ooh somebody
(Please) Can anybody find me somebody to love ?
(She works hard)
Everyday (everyday) - I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm going crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Ah, got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe in
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh Lord
Ooh somebody - ooh somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love ?
(Can anybody find me someone to love)
Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat (You just keep losing and losing)
I'm OK, I'm alright (she's alright - he's alright)
I ain't gonna face no defeat (yeah yeah)
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
One day (someday) I'm gonna be free, Lord!
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love love love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love somebody somebody somebody somebody
Somebody find me
Somebody find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me somebody to love ?
(Find me somebody to love)
Ooh
(Find me somebody to love)
Find me somebody, somebody (find me somebody to love) somebody, somebody to love
(Find me somebody to love)
Find me, find me, find me, find me, find me
Ooh - somebody to love
(Find me somebody to love)
Ooh
(Find me somebody to love)
Find me, find me, find me somebody to love
(Find me somebody to love)
Anybody, anywhere, anybody find me somebody to love love love!
Wooo somebody find me, find me love.
A few days later Adam was dragging Cassidy toward the auditorium "hurry up! I haz a date a breadstix I need to be getting ready for!" He hurried the girl before sitting her down in the middle of the first row before walking on stage being joined by the rest of the group, who began a slow, quiet harmony of 'Ah-Ohs' as Cyrus burst in on stage pointing directly at Cassie as he sung.
Cyrus:
This thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love
This thing (this thing)
Called love (called love)
It cries (like a baby)
In a cradle all night
It swings (woo woo)
It jives (woo woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love
There goes my baby
She knows how to rock 'n' roll
She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
She leaves me in a cool cool sweat
Oh yeah
I gotta be cool, relax, get hip
And get on my tracks
Take a back seat, hitchhike
Take a long ride on my motorbike
Until I'm ready
Crazy little thing called love
I gotta be cool, relax, get hip
And get on my tracks
Take a back seat
Hitchhike
And take a long ride on my motorbike
Until I'm ready
Crazy little thing called love
This thing called love I just can't handle it
This thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Oh yeah!
Cassie sat their quietly as Mr Shue clapped "I am so proud that you guys worked together on this number!" He cheered as Ade slipped on stage unnoticed. "Before we go I want you guys to try one number and then I will let you leave and have an amazing weekend"
Handing out the sheet music to everyone, Cyrus pulled Cassie on stage with him and she linked their fingers squeezing his hand.
"Cyrus I want you to take the male lead" Mr Shue said much to Adam and Dev's dismay.
"Adrianna take the second verse, Adam the third, Luke the fourth, Dev take the bridge and I want Cassie and Cyrus to finish" The group nodded before standing in a formation.
Cyrus:
Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooo
Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters
Adrianna:
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
My body's aching all the time
Goodbye everybody - I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Adam:
Mama, ooo
Club minus Adam:
Anyway the wind blows
Adam:
I don't want to die
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all
Luke:
I see a little silhouetto of a man
Club, minus Adam:
Scaramouche, scaramouche will you do the fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning - very very frightening me
Galileo
Adam:
Galileo
Club:
Galileo
Adam:
Galileo
Club:
Galileo figaro magnifico
Luke:
I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me
Chorus:
He's just a poor boy, from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Luke:
Easy come, easy go
Will you let me go
Chorus:
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go
Bismillah! We will not let you go, let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go
Adam:
Let me go
Club:
Will not let you go
Adam:
Let me go
Club:
Never let you go
Adam:
Let me go
Never let me go
Club:
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Luke:
Oh mama mia, mama mia
Club:
Mama mia let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me
For me, for me
Dev:
So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Club,minus Dev:
Oh baby, can't do this to me baby
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here
Cyrus:
Nothing really matters
Cassie:
Anyone can see
Cyrus:
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me
Cyrus and Cassie:
Anyway the wind blows...
Ade dropped to the floor just the end chord echoed through the auditorium.
