I own nothing. I don't own Ho! Hey! by the Lumineers or For The First Time by the Script.

Prom. The most exciting and horrifying time of year. Everyone dressed up and went all out, but the Glee club, as always was the entertainment. That meant all of the members, even the under classmen, were being dragged to the dance. It wouldn't be the first Prom Kinsley had been to. She had been dating a senior freshman year and had gone with him. She didn't remember much of it through the alcohol fog that covered that night. But, she did remember waking up in the bed of a truck in a dress that wasn't hers and curled up with a junior. It took two days to get over that hangover, but it hadn't been the first time.

This year, her and Jake were gonna go together. They were going to Breadstix with everyone else in Glee club, taking pictures in front of the fountain outside the mall and then they were going to sing most of the night. She had her dress picked out and everything. Mr. Shue and Ms. Pillsbury had given her, despite her resistance, one hundred dollars for a dress and shoes.

Kitty and Marley met her at the mall and the three girls spent quite a few hours trying to find suitable dresses to wear. The other two had fond a dress and shoes, but Kinsley hadn't. She was getting frustrated with the fact that she didn't really like much and the things she did like wouldn't zip in the back. It wasn't until then had she realized her usually flat stomach beginning to round out a little and her hips starting to widen.

In fact, she had pretty much given up. Then, as the girls were sitting down at tables in the food court with strawberry milkshakes –Kinsley had been craving them like crazy lately –she saw it. It was in the window of a boutique with a name she couldn't pronounce. Without saying anything, Kinsley stood up and walked over ignoring the others' questioning. Huffing, Marley and Kitty gathered their things, careful not to forget to grab Kinsley's milkshake, and followed after her. By the time they walked through the door, she had already grabbed a dress off the rack and was locking herself in fitting room.

Looking in the mirror, Kinsley peeled her t-shirt and shorts away from her body. Pulling the dress off of the hanger she kicked her red converse off. She slipped into it easily and zipped it pulling her hair out of the back. It was a skin-tight red dress with thin straps and barely reached mid-thigh. It hugged her body in all of the right places, outlining her new curves. She smiled at herself in the mirror before walking back out into the store.

Kitty and Marley were waiting for her and the second they saw her, their eyes lit up.

"What do you think?" Kinsley asked smiling.

"It's perfect," Marley gasped.

"You look… amazing," Kitty said struggling to find a word to actually explain how the dress looked on her.

"You really think so," Kinsley asked examining herself in the three-way mirror.

"Yeah," Marley said.

"Do you like it?" Kitty asked.

"I love it," Kinsley replied turning to look at the girls behind her.

"And," Kitty said looking at the tag. "It's fifty bucks."

So, Kinsley put her clothes back on and hung the dress on the hanger. She paid the cashier for the dress and walked with the bag in hand smiling. Less than two minutes later, they found themselves in the shoe store and Kinsley was trying her best not to trip over the heels.

Kinsley walked down the hallway quietly peeking around the corner. She could hear Mr. Shue and Ms. Pillsbury talking about something in hushed tones with Jake. Smoothing down her dress, she walked into the room not meeting anyone's gaze. She could feel everyone's eyes on her, but she didn't want to see the looks on their faces.

"Wow," Jake gasped taking in her appearance. Her hair was curly resting on her shoulders, light eye shadow was dusted on her eyelids, cherry Chapstick smeared on her lips, he marveled at the way her dress looked on her and she had stepped into black pumps that just looked painful.

Blushing, Kinsley looked up at the people surrounding her.

"Let me take a picture," Emma said running into the kitchen. She returned a few seconds later holding a camera in hand. Smiling, she posed the two teenagers in front of the fireplace. She snapped several pictures of the couple; Kinsley standing in front of Jake with his arms on either side of her waist, one with the two standing side by side with their arms snaked around each other, and then a few caught by accident. One of Jake pressing a kiss to Kinsley's cheek and another of the two laughing. The last one was of Jake bent down so his head was close to her stomach. He was kissing the small bump, though you couldn't tell it was there unless you were really looking, and she was laughing at him.

Hand in hand, Kinsley and Jake walked to the table of their friends in the middle of the restaurant. They slid into the booth joining the conversation easily. Kinsley smiled resting her head on her hand and looking around the table. She sat between Ryder and Jake, two of the most important guys in her life. Kitty was sitting next to Ryder laughing at something Unique had said. Marley sat next to Joe pushing the straggling peas around her plate. Sam was trying to explain some impression that he had just done to Sugar who was clueless. Tina and Blaine were talking about something that Kinsley couldn't make out. Though it was unlikely and would've thought you were delusional if you had told her that seven months ago, but this was her family. These people surrounding her, they cared more about her than her biological family ever had.

The entire Glee club stood at microphones standing with their hands at their sides. The music started and they all took a step back. "Ho!" They all shouted. "Hey!"
"Ho!" They repeated. "Hey!"
"I've been trying to do it right. I've been living a lonely life. I've been sleeping here instead. I've been sleeping in my bed, sleeping in my bed," Kinsley started singing standing closer to the microphone.
"Hey! Ho!" The rest of the club shouted.
"So show me family. All the blood that I would bleed. I don't know where I belong. I don't know where I went wrong, but I can write a song," Kitty sang.
"I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart. I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet," they all sang together.
"I don't think you're right for him. Look at what it might have been if you took a bus to China Town. I'd be standing on Canal and Bowery," Sam sang.
"And she'd be standing next to me," all the boys sang.
"I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart. I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart," the girls sang.

"Love – we need it now," Kinsley sang looking over to Jake who smiled back at her.
"Let's hope for some. So, we're bleeding out," Blaine sang.
"I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart," Marley sang.
"I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet," Jake sang.
"Ho!" Ryder shouted. "Hey!"
"Ho!" They all shouted.
"The last one," Joe said into the microphone.
"Hey!" They finished smiling.

The guys stood on the stage now with microphones in their hands.

"She's all laid up in bed with a broken heart. While I'm drinking jack all alone in my local bar," Ryder sang.

"And we don't know how, how we got into this mad situation. Only doing things out of frustration," Sam sang.
"Trying to make it work but man these times are hard," Jake sang.
"She needs me now but I can't seem to find the time. I've got a new job now on the unemployment line," Joe sang.

"And we don't know how, how we got into this mess. Is it god's test? Someone help us 'cause we're doing our best," Sam sang.

"Trying to make it work but man these times are hard," Jake sang.
"But we're gonna start by drinking old cheap bottles of wine, shit talking up all night, saying things we haven't for a while, a while, yeah," Ryder sang.
"We're smiling but we're close to tears, even after all these years. We just now got the feeling that we're meeting for the first time," the guys all sang together.
"She's in line at the Dole with her head held high. While I just lost my job, but didn't lose my pride," Blaine sang.
"But we both know how, how we're gonna make it work when it hurts. When you pick yourself up, you get kicked to the dirt," Sam sang/
"Trying to make it work but, man, these times are hard," Joe sang.
"But we're gonna start by drinking old cheap bottles of wine, shit talking up all night, doing things we haven't for a while, a while yeah," Ryder sang.
"We're smiling but we're close to tears, even after all these years, we just now got the feeling that we're meeting for the first time," Jake sang.
"Yeah," they all sang. "Drinking old cheap bottles of wine, shit talking up all night, saying things we haven't for a while. We're smiling but we're close to tears, even after all these years, we just now got the feeling that we're meeting for the first time."
"Ooooo.., yeah, for the first time. Ooooo.., oh, for the first time. Yeah, for the first time," Blaine sang.
"Just now got the feeling that we're meeting for the first time," Joe sang.
"Oh, these times are hard. Yeah, they're making us crazy. Don't give up on me baby," Jake finished his eyes finding Kinsley in the crowd.
