A/N : Aaaaaaaaaaaaa! Blaine and Rachel. Please excuse me for a moment while I barf.

Anyway, sorry about the wait, I'll try to update daily/every two days from now on. Hope you like the chapter. Oh, and am I the only one that likes Samtana?

Chapter 21

SAM'S POV

Empire State of The Mind was the first song I heard performed by New Directions. To tell you the truth, I think it was a great show. I really don't know why it got so little response. Then again, who am I kidding saying I don't know why. The students probably liked the show. They just didn't like the people singing. If it was sung by the cheerios or someone that was popular, it would have been remembered as a great performance.

Before McKinley I went to private school. Like here, there was a hierarchy there, but it was different. First of all, the people in the top wouldn't look down on the ones below them, they all simply had their own lives. Secondly, gay people, like Kurt, were just friends with everyone. It didn't matter to anyone whether someone was gay or not. If someone had a problem with them, they had a problem with everyone in the school. In fact, my best friend and roommate for 5 years was homosexual. He wasn't as feminine as Kurt though. He was on the football team with me.

It fact, from all the stories that Kurt has told us, Dalton sounds a lot like St. Louis (A/N: made up name for Sam's old school). We didn't have an anti-bullying policy, but that's just because it wasn't needed. If bullying would have started we would have enforced it.

Suddenly music came out of the speakers and my thoughts returned to the computer.

The first people that appeared on the screen were Rachel and Tina. They were singing 'bam, bam, bam' and snapping their fingers. This is the first video I'm not surprised is on the internet. Someone filmed the performance and not long later it was all over the school, everyone laughing at "the stupid glee kids who think they're good".

Next came Mike and Kurt. I couldn't help myself and I burst out laughing. When I saw it the first time, there wasn't anything weird about how Kurt looked. He was just another boy in the crowd. But now, when I know that he usually only dresses very fashionable and elegant, it seems ridiculous. Everyone else from school was laughing too, while Kurt glared at us. But the corners of his mouth were turned upwards and you could see he was trying not to smile.

'What's going on?' asked Blaine 'Why is everyone laughing?'

We all stared at him. 'You don't think Kurt wearing something like that is funny?' Tina said

'Wait' said a different boy, the one that's slightly insane. I think his name is Wes but I'm not sure.

'A second' carried on his best friend.

It's a bit annoying when they talk like that, interrupting each other all the time. You have absolutely no idea who to reply to. On the other hand, they have made this evening much more enjoyable.

'That is Kurt?' finished the first one.

'Of course it is. Don't you have eyes?' replied Santana. I smiled. Even though the girl could be really mean sometimes her humor was great.

'But, but. Hair. Clothes. Necklace. Gloves. HAIR!' stuttered out Blaine. This made all of us laugh even harder. Now that I think about it, that was the only time I ever saw Kurt looking so loosened up.

'Um, yeah, could we like move on from how I looked and start the video again' asked Kurt, looking highly embarrassed.

Before the video started I heard David whisper to Wes 'Looks like the poor fellow just fell I little bit more in love with Kurt' who started sniggering and gave a slight nod.

The next fragment was sung by Artie, who was being pushed by Kurt. The boy is a great rapper, he proved that here and when he sang Billionaire with me. It's a shame about his condition. He could have grown up to be a famous dancer and rapper.

After Artie came Finn. Hmm.. my opinions on the boy are still vary. On one hand, he helped me with Quinn and he persuaded me to join glee club for which I am very grateful. On the other, he really behaves like a huge jerk sometimes.

Puck and Mercedes! I've got to admit their voices go well together. And they both nailed the part they were singing. When they walked down the stairs Finn motioned for the cheerleaders to join them.

Out came Santana, Quinn and Brittany, each of them looking very hot. Even though Quinn's my girlfriend I have to admit that Santana looked better here.

After they had sang the chorus the girls grouped together and with Mercedes leading they started singing their part. Meanwhile the boys were sitting down, sometimes singing along.

'Oh yeah Berry. Why were you wearing a skirt while we were all wearing trousers?' asked Santana, clicking pause.

'Please Santana. You've known Rachel for a long time, right?' replied Kurt 'Did you seriously think she would dress up like all of you and just blend into the background?'

'No, that's not why I did. I simply don't own - ' Rachel started explaining but was cut off by Kurt.

'You don't own black jeans?' asked Kurt, his eyebrows so high you practically couldn't see them. As she shook her head Kurt put his hands in his head. 'Okay Rach, next weekend, you and I are going shopping. You definitely need it'

'Count me in' added Mercedes.

'And count me out' Puck replied jokingly while pressing play.

When they returned to the chorus they started doing a little dance routine, nearly perfectly. For the ending they all sat down and did little hand moves. When the film showed Kurt Santana butted in.

'Really Kurt? Really? Those hands moves!' she managed to say between chuckles. Kurt looked a little upset but was soon grinning and blushing like mad when Blaine said "I think it was hot.'

When the video came to an end, the Dalton boys and I started clapping. However they stopped when they noticed what was happening on the computer screen.

There, there was no applause. Everyone was simply doing their own thing, talking to their friends, eating lunch, gossiping about someone or another.

'Why'

'Didn't'

'Anyone'

'Clap?' asked the two boys, each of them wearing an identical look of confusion.

'Well, we've learned that we're so down on the hierarchy list in our school, that it doesn't matter how hard we try, no one will notice us anyway'

'What do you mean?' asked Blaine.

This time Kurt started explaining 'Do you remember when I first met you and you told me that the Warblers are like rock stars' The smaller boy nodded so Kurt continued 'Well, at McKinley it was the complete opposite. We were treated like dirt just because we were on the glee club'

I saw Wes and David exchange looks of horror, probably thinking what it would be like to be hated just for what you did in an after school club. Blaine's eyes screamed ANGER but he controlled his emotions and smiled to Kurt saying 'Well, now you're here so you're safe'

Unfortunately not all of us have that luxury. Of course I don't have it so bad, being on the football team protects you quite well, but I've seen how Tina, Rachel, Lauren and Artie have been treated at school. And it isn't pretty.

'So what's the next video' asked Quinn, trying to loosen the tension a little. I smiled at her and she replied with a grin.

'Happy Days Are Here/Get Happy' announced Mike. Rachel and Kurt smirked and high fived.

A/N : Another chapter done! Thanks for all the reviews :) They really make my day
