Kate and Felicity Chapter 25: The Substitute, a glee fanfic

Kate's POV

Having a closeted bully being in love with you was weird. Part of me wanted to let everyone know it, but the other part of me knew that outing was wrong. I didn't have the right to let people know that she was a lesbian. That was something that she needed to do herself. I probably shouldn't have even told Blake, but I was only trying to help her.

Now Blake, she was different. She was nice. She was beautiful. She was short, but I didn't even know how she felt about me. Just because she was a lesbian didn't mean that she would like me. I was her competition. She might not be as cool with dating the competition as Jessica St. James was. Besides, I imagined that at least one other girl in her group was gay. You probably could go to an all-girl school and be straight, but I'd still think that there would be a higher percentage of lesbians, especially considering they didn't tolerate bullying.

I guess what I was saying was that I was confused, not confused about my sexuality but confused about who my sexuality was going to guide me to. Was there a wrong choice?

Felicity's POV

There was a problem as soon as I walked into school. Somehow, something had happened to Figgins and Sue was principal. That was why you were supposed to have a vice principal so some random staff member couldn't just assume power whenever they wanted. Also, I heard that Lauren Zizes had come to school sick, so I needed to avoid her.

When we got to Glee Club, I couldn't help but notice that Mr. Schue also looked like he was under the weather. He wrote something about Sectionals on the board.

"I think that I'm going to go see the nurse." He announced. "But first I feel like I should get you guys a sitter."

Later in the night, I was over at Quinn's. I was starting to wonder if we should be living together. It would be easier to raise the baby if I didn't have to keep going over to her house, but I would have to talk to my mom about and probably her mom too. The fact in the matter was that Beth was both Quinn's and my daughter. That was what her birth certificate said and that was legally binding.

Anyway, I went to the bathroom after getting there. Of course, I didn't know that Quinn was taking a shower, or that she was coming out right as I opened the door. I stared at her for a second before I immediately ran out.

"You need to knock." She told me.

"I'm sorry." I apologized. Though, those few seconds I saw something. I had seen girls naked before, even Quinn naked before, but this was different. I felt kinda turned on. It was confusing.

How come everything turns out leaving me with more doubts
I feel like I'm upside down and I don't wanna be here
I go right shoulda gone left, and I say things I shoulda not said
Look at me in this big mess I don't wanna be here

Everything I do is making me more confused
Oh it used to be easy, all I had to be was me, now I'm mixed up
Everywhere I go somewhere that I don't know
Oh I hope that I'm dreaming cause I'm sick of this feeling, I'm mixed up somebody help me

So hold me tell me everything is gonna be okay
Cause today it feels like I won't make it to the top now
Don't know how to get out of this
I'm so mixed up, somebody help me

Somebody help me, somebody help me
Somebody help me

Maybe that was a bit dramatic. I probably wasn't falling for Quinn, but I was at least a little bit confused.

Kate's POV

In Spanish, we had a substitute named Miss Holiday. She actually seemed like she knew the language, but she also seemed to have an inexplicable grudge against Lindsay Lohan. Nevertheless, we needed help in Glee club because Rex had commandeered it and it was a disaster. I wondered if she knew anything about Glee club. I was wearing a red sleeveless dress over a pair of jeans with a baby blue cardigan and sneakers with a gold snake bracelet.

"Miss Holiday, my name is Kate Hummel. I was wondering if you wanted to substitute for Glee today." I declared.

"I thought you'd never ask." She replied. Was she expecting me to?

When I got to Glee club, I noticed that Puck seemed to rubbing butter on the floor for some reason.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"Since you got a sub, I'm buttering the floor." He explained. Why?

"Did I hear something about a substitute…whoa." Rex asked as he entered the room before slipping on the floor.

"Yes, it works." Puck declared. At that point, Miss Holiday did a power slide into the room.

"Let's start with some introductions." She stated. "My name is Holly Holiday."

"Is that your real name?" I asked. I didn't know how someone gets a name like that. That'd be like if someone were named Phillip Phillips.

"So I recently watched a video of you performing at Regionals where you came in last." She stated. I was wondering if it was a mistake to ask her. "I'm not your average sub. I want you guys to do things that you want to do. I want you to have fun in our fabulous but fleeting time together. So what songs would you like to do?"

Everyone seemed to have a problem answering that question.

"I see that you don't get asked that much." She responded.

"Can you even sing?" Rex asked.

"Yes." She declared. "Let me show you what I can I do."

I was at the top now it's like I'm in the basement
Number one spot now he's finding a replacement
I swear that I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby
And now you aint around baby I can't think
Should've put it down, should've took that ring
I can feel I through the air
See his pretty face, run my fingers through his hair

My love of my life, your shawty, your wife
He left me, I'm tied, cause I knew that just aint right

I was thinking 'bout him, thinking 'bout me, thinking 'bout us, what we gonna be
Open my eyes, it was only just a dream
So I travelled back down that road, will he come back, no one knows
I realize that it was only just a dream

If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up, if you ever loved somebody, put your hands up
Now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything
If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up, if you ever loved somebody, put your hands up
Now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything

Okay, so she was a good singer. I guess she couldn't sing that Cee-Lo song that was loaded with profanity that is one of the best songs ever, if not for that crying bridge that sounds horribly whiny. I could tell that Felicity was not very impressed by her.

After Glee club was over, I came across Sara in the hallway.

"Hi." I greeted her.

"Did you tell someone else?" She asked.

"No." I responded. It seemed like she was a bit paranoid.

"If you tell anyone else, I'll kill you." She declared before she pushed me into a locker. She acted like she meant it.

Felicity's POV

Throughout the day, Quinn was still on my mind. The fact that I had had a sex dream about her was not helping. I had known Quinn for so long and I had never felt anything towards any girl before. I didn't want to talk about it because it was nothing. I was not falling in love with Quinn. I had a boyfriend. I decided to go to his house and have sex with him.

"I've never seen you so into it before." He commented.

"Well it's been a little while since we've done it and we finally got some condoms." I argued.

"Well you've never given me oral before." He remarked.

"That was before I knew how good it was." I pointed out. "Can we not question the sex? I wanted to have sex with you. Shouldn't that be enough?"

"I guess so." He replied. "Do you want to do it again?"

"Fuck yeah." I declared before we began to roll around in the covers some more. It was proof that I was straight. He began to go down on me…and I ended up imagining that Quinn was doing it. I shook my head. Even if I did like her, there was no way that she would like me back so I just needed to get the thought outs of my head immediately. I needed something to distract me.

The next day at school, I was wearing a floral camisole with a long black coat, mesh black embroidered skirt with peach heels and a black floral ring with a sapphire necklace. I may have been overdressed for school, but I didn't care.

Anyway, we found that Ms. Holiday was our new permanent Spanish teacher and Glee Club instructor. It was why it was a bad idea to make Sue principal. Though, I was surprised that she did not just outright disband us. I had to say that I was not okay with it. In fact, I was pissed about it, but I don't know if there was anything that I could do. Everyone else seemed to really like Ms. Holiday, but we can't just throw out Mr. Schue like he had never been there for us, despite the fact that she could actually speak Spanish.

Kate's POV

I wanted to do whatever I could to get Mr. Schue back, but I was kind of dealing with my own paranoia. Sara wouldn't actually kill me, would she? Could she? Well she could have a knife or something. I didn't want to talk to anyone about it. I just wanted to sing.

Bum, bum be-dum bum, bum be-dum
Bum, bum be-dum bum, bum be-dum
Bum, bum be-dum bum, bum be-dum
Bum, bum be-dum bum, bum be-dum

What's wrong with me
Why do I feel like this
I'm going crazy now

No more gas in the rig, can't even get it started
Nothing heard, nothing said can't even speak about it
Out my life, out my head don't wanna think about it
Feels like I'm going insane yeah

It's the thief in the night come and grab you
It can creep up inside you and consume you
A disease of the mind it can control you
It's too close for comfort

Put on your brake lights, you're in the city of wonder
Aint gonna play nice, watch out you might just go under
Better think twice your train of thought will be altered
So if you must falter be wise

Your mind's in disturbia, it's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia am I scaring you tonight
Disturbia aint used to what you like
Disturbia, disturbia

I didn't know what to do.

Of course, the situation with Miss Holiday kind of resolved itself when Sue fired her for letting Mercedes stuff some tater tots up Sue's tailpipe. Luckily, Mercedes wasn't going to be expelled for it. I didn't understand why any of that even happened. Maybe Mercedes was mad because of the lack of tater tots in the lunchroom after Sue apparently banned them. None of it mattered to me because I was smart enough not to eat school lunches.

On the plus side, it meant that Mr. Schue was going to be back. I was pretty sure that Sue never had any grounds to fire him in the first place. I didn't think it was legal to fire someone while they were sick.

One thing that surprised me was the fact that Mr. Schue let Miss Holiday sing with us. I didn't think that he would like her since the woman had taken his job.

Seconds, hours, so many days, you know what you want but how long can you wait
Every moment lasts forever when you feel you've lost your way
And what if my chance was already gone, started believing I could be wrong
But you gave me one good reason to find and never walk away

So here I am
Still holding on

With every step you climb another mountain
With every breath it's harder to believe
You make through the pain, weather the hurricanes
To get to that one thing
Just when you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you almost gave up on your dreams
They take you by the hand and show you that you cam
There are no boundaries, there are no boundaries

You can go higher, you can go deeper
There are no boundaries above and beneath you
Break every rule because there's nothing between and your dream

With every step you climb another mountain
With every breath it's harder to believe
You make through the pain, weather the hurricanes
To get to that one thing
Just when you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you almost gave up everything
They take you by the hand and show you that you cam
There are no boundaries, there are no boundaries
There are no boundaries, there are no boundaries
There are no boundaries

I went home and laid on my bed. It was somewhere that I felt safe. I wanted to feel safe. I put my head and fell into an uneasy sleep.

So I know what Sara said was pretty bad, but she will be redeemed. She's not going to follow the same story arc. Something may happen between her and Kate before the season is over. The song are "Mixed Up" by Hannah Montana, "Just a Dream" by Nelly, "Disturbia" by Rihanna and "No Boundaries" by Kris Allen. Please don't forget to review.
