Rory's POV
As I walk into the wedding, I see many people wearing extravagant outfits.
I feel really under dressed in just my tux.
Oh well.
I take my seat and as I watch Sugar walk down the aisle, it takes me back to that night.
The night of the party.
The night I saw Sugar for the first time in years, just to find out she was engaged.
It hurts.
We weren't together long, but it was the only relationship I've ever had.
My first, and, quite possibly, my last.
It's amazing how no girl Ireland at my school wanted me.
"You may kiss the bride." The man says. Sugar jumps into the arms of her fiance, now husband, Bobby, and they lock lips for a good minute or two.
It's a little awkward watching them, not knowing if we should clap, or give them privacy or something.
They eventually break apart and we applaud.
In the after party, I fill up my glass with what I hope isn't alcohol, and watch as Sugar, in a fluffy white party dress, talks to her dad.
After that, she looks around the room and her eye catches mine. She smiles her adorable smile of hers and bounces of to me, Bobby holding her hand.
"Rory! Awesome you could come! I hope it wasn't too awkward for you as my ex to watch me marry my amazing fiance."
"Sugar-" Bobby starts. Sugar covers her mouth and giggles.
"Oops, sorry, Asperger's!" She exclaims. I smile. Bobby looks at me.
"Oh, hey, you're that one kid who came to our door that one night!"
"Uh, yeah, I am."
"Well, I'm Bobby. Nice to meet you, for real, Rory."
"You too." We shake hands, him grasping mine a little too tight for a friendly handshake.
Sugar runs off, dragging Bobby behind her and I sigh.
What might have been if I didn't have to go back to Ireland...
Blaine's POV
"Welcome to Glee, new members, and welcome back old members! We have a exciting new year ahead of us. Now last year, we made it to Nationals, and, unfortunately, did not do well. But that will not happen again! The New, New Directions will win big this year and prove to everyone how great glee is! So, I-" The door slams shut behind me, and I turn to see Rory waking in, hair ruffled, looking little disheveled.
He's wearing a tux.
Oh god. Sugar's wedding!
He looks up and realizes he's interrupted class.
"Oh, whoops."
"Everyone, this is Rory Flanagan, the assistant coach of the New, New Directions. He's here on a special type of scholarship from Ireland. Rory was apart of the Original New Directions with me and people like Rachel Berry-" McKayla squeaks at the mention of Rachel and I ignore her, "my husband, Kurt, and we were coached by the one and only Mr. Shue."
"Wait, he's how old?" Kelly asks.
"18, about to turn 19." Rory answers.
"Then how come you weren't in high school last year?"
"I had to return to Ireland after my year here at McKinley, and my school didn't count my American history for my sophomore year, so I had to retake a semester in Ireland."
"So, shouldn't you be like 20 or something?"
"Uh, no. I graduated in 2016 in December, received a special scholarship that brought me over to America, and here I am."
"The Scottish are confusing."
"Irish."
"Same thing." Rory smiles at Kelly and rolls his eyes.
"Anyway, this weeks assignment is: Team Bonding! I want you all to pick a song and preform as a group for the first time together!"
McKayla's POV
"Well, as a returning member and basically the best in this whole group, I think we should sing a song that shows off my amazing vocal range."
"McKayla, that wasn't the assignment." Natalie tells me. I shoot her a look.
"So?"
"So, how about we choose song that we all can sing?"
"Ugh. Fine. We can do it your way, but only this once."
"So, I wanted to do this song last year, but, here's what I'm thinking..."
Blaine's POV
"Okay, let's see what this group has come up with." Rory and I back and the kids come on stage, all wearing red McKinley tshirts and jeans.
"We are family" They sing the first three words and I know that this isngoing to be amazing
"I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing"
"Everyone can see we're together
As we walk on by" Natalie sings.
"And, and we fly just like birds of a feather
I won't tell no lie" Fauna sings.
"All, all of the people around us they say
Can they be that close" Dana sings.
"Just let me state for the record" Sierra sings.
"We're giving love in a family dose" McKayla sings.
"We are family
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, ah)
I got all my sisters with me
(I have, I have)
We are family
Get up everybody and sing
(Sing it to me)
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing"
"Living life is fun and we've just begun
To get our share of this world's delights" Nick sings.
"High, high hopes we have for the future
And our goal's in sight" Garrett sings.
"We, no we don't get depressed
Here's what we call our golden rule" Aiden sings.
"Have faith in you and the things you do
You won't go wrong, oh-no" Jack sings.
"This is our family Jewel" Simon sings.
"We are family
(Yeah, yeah, sing it to me)
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
(Oh I can hear you now)
Get up everybody and sing
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
(Get up, get up now)
Get up everybody and sing
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing
We are family" The group finishes. Rory and I applaud. That number was great. I LOVED it. It showed what glee was all about.
It's official.
Glee is back to it's former glory.
