Kate's POV
This weekend was the wedding. It didn't feel that much different because I basically already though of Carole as my mother and Felicity as my sister and they were just making it official. On the other hand, I was glad about the dress that I would get to wear. I liked the idea of being a bridesmaid. Felicity and Quinn would also be bridesmaids with me. I kind of wanted to see Blake wanted to come to the wedding with me.
Of course, another part of me wanted to ask Sara to the wedding, even though I was pretty sure that she would say no. It was difficult because I kind of liked her and she may have genuinely wanted to kill me. I was terrified whenever I was school. All I wanted to do was help her come out of the closet and she wanted to kill me for that. She was crazy and it was a little bit hot, but it was also really scary and I didn't know how much more of it I could take. I just wanted to feel safe at school and at the moment, I really didn't even though I wasn't sure if she was serious.
At school, I wore a black lace dress with a transparent blue maxi overskirt and blue heels. As soon as I got there, I started to look for Sara. I kind of just wanted to talk things out with her. I might not even mind being her closeted girlfriend. Not to mention if I convinced her to come out, she would probably be less angry. I believed that there was probably a good person underneath all of that anger and self-hatred which she would also need help with, but I didn't think she wanted my help.
Felicity's POV
I was downstairs ready for school while my mom and Burt were in the kitchen. I wore a black cropped sweater over a magenta blouse and jeans with a pair of black boots. We were making plans.
"We're going to Waikiki!" Burt declared. I wasn't sure if Kate and I were going. "I'll also get a bigger house where you each can have your own room and probably a nursery in case Quinn ever wants to stay over."
Speaking of Quinn, I wasn't sure what I was doing about my feelings for her. I needed to see if there was anything mutual.
When I got to school, I noticed a problem with the wedding, so I went to talk to Kate about it.'
"We can't release 305 doves." I remarked. "It's not in the budget and if we did, we couldn't release them indoors. Also I want to do something special here. For some reason, everyone says I'm a leader and I want to show that I am."
"Well maybe after your speech, you can sing a song." She suggested. "I love planning weddings. My Barbie dolls got married and divorced more times than Larry King and Liz Taylor."
I then decided to talk to Quinn to see if she wanted to bring Beth to the wedding.
"So we need to discuss what we're going to do about the baby." I stated. "Do you want to bring her?"
"I want her to see her non-biological grandma get married." Quinn admitted. "I'll have my mom hold her during the ceremony in case there are any issues."
"So do you think you'll want to dance when we get there?" I asked.
"With you?" She countered. "I guess we could, but I thought you'd want to dance with San. We haven't danced together since we were freshmen."
"Well I can dance with Sam too. We'll probably be there for a while." I pointed out.
"Hey, Kate, can I talk to you?" Rex interrupted.
"About what?" I inquired.
"Well this stuff between Kate and Sara is a little out of control. I was wondering if maybe you could knock some sense into her." He declared.
"Are you suggesting that I fight her?" I asked.
"You want to fight violence with violence? Classy." Quinn remarked.
"Well do you know how bad it is?" He challenged. Kate really hadn't told me anything about it. "She looks terrified to be here. It'll send a message."
"I don't think that's the way to go." I replied. I was pretty sure I could get kicked off the team for fighting.
I wondered if I could talk to Sue about it. It kind of terrified me that I was considering it. I didn't even know if Sue would do anything about it. Would she even believe that her head cheerleader was doing things to Kate? Would she even care? I decided that it probably wasn't worth it. I would have to talk to Kate to see what was going on.
Kate's POV
When I got to Glee club, I noticed that Santana had a black eye.
"What's going on?" I asked.
"Santana got into a fight with Sara." Brittany declared as she rubbed some ice on the Latina's eye. It must have been during Cheerios practice. "You know that was very brave of you."
"Wait, I thought you hated me." I stated in confusion.
"That doesn't mean I want someone else picking on you." Santana said.
"What's going on?" Mr. Schue asked as he walked into the room. "What happened to Santana's eye?"
"She stood up to Sara Morrison." Brittany explained proudly.
"Is everyone okay?" Mr. Schue responded. "Do we need to go talk to Principal Sylvester?"
"No, but I think it'll send a message for her to back off Kate." Santana stated.
"Are you okay, Kate?" He questioned.
"I'm fine." I lied with a fake smile. "I don't need anyone to fight my battles for me."
"Well let's get ready. We need to rehearse for the wedding." Mr. Schue declared.
Felicity's POV
The next day, Kate and I were in the choir room with Burt.
"So what are we doing here?" I asked my future stepsister.
"Well you may not know this but my dad's dancing is kind of…bad." Kate stated. "He needs someone to practice with who isn't me, and I figured that you would be good for the job. Felicity, put your hand on my dad's shoulder and now dad put your hand on her back."
It was a bit uncomfortable, but I wanted him not to suck when he danced with my mom. I didn't think anyone would mind, but it would probably be better if he didn't.
At that point, we noticed Sara in the door, making an offensive gesture towards Kate.
"What the hell was that?" Burt asked.
"It was nothing, Dad." Kate told him.
"That was not nothing." Burt stated. "She was making fun of you. What's her name?"
"Her is Sara Morrison." Kate relented. "She's been bullying me for weeks. She even threatened to kill me."
I could see a look of fire in Burt's eyes. I figured I should do something before he did something illegal. I was pissed too. The next thing I remembered, I was being torn off Sara.
Kate's POV
I was in Sue's office with my dad, Sara and her mom. We were discussing what happened.
"So it seems the situation has reached a boiling point." Sue commented.
"Damn right it has." Dad replied.
"I didn't do anything." Sara tried to say.
"I'll tell what you did. Mrs. Morrison…" Dad started.
"My name's Paula. Call me Paula." Her mother interrupted him.
"Okay, Paula. Your daughter threatened the life of my daughter." He continued. Her mother looked shocked.
"Kate, is that true?" Sue asked. I nodded.
"I didn't say that." Sara argued.
"She said it." I confirmed. "She said she'd killed if I told."
"If you told anyone what?" Sue asked. I couldn't do it here.
"Just that she was picking on me." I lied. Sara sighed.
"She's making this up." She said.
"Hold on. You have been acting differently lately, Sara." Paula declared. "You used to get good grades. You're talking back. You're acting out and now this. So let me ask you why Kate would make that up."
"Maybe she likes me." Sara replied.
"I think we're wasting our time." Dad stated. He looked at Sue. "It's your job to protect people."
"Couldn't agree more." Sue agreed. "After hearing both sides, it seems that I have no choice other than to expel you Sara. I don't care how good you are. I will not have one student threatening the life of another. If you don't think it's fair, take it up with the schoolboard."
Wow, Sue actually came through for us.
"Thank you for your time." Paula stated.
On Saturday, Felicity, Quinn and I were all in red V-neck dresses with. We were doing a grand entrance.
I thought love was only true in fairytales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Love was out to get me that's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams
Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
I thought love was more or less a givin' thing
But the more I gave the less I got
What's the use in trying, all you get is pain
When I needed sunshine I got rain
Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
Love was out to get me now that's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams
Oh then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
Yes I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Said I'm a believer, Said I'm a believer, yeah
Said I'm a believer, yeah
The actual wedding didn't take a lot of time. I suppose it never really does. All I know is that they looked so happy when they kissed. At the reception, I was serenading them during their first dance.
Can this be true, tell me can this be real
How can I put into words what I feel
My life was complete I thought I was whole
Why do I feel like I'm losing control?
Never thought that love could feel like this
Then you changed my world with just one kiss
And how can it be that right here with me
There's an angel, it's a miracle
Your love is like a river, peaceful and deep
Your soul is like a secret I never could keep
When I look into your eyes, I know that it's true
God must've spent a little more time on you
Never thought that love could feel like this
Then you changed my world with just one kiss
And how can it be that right here with me?
There's an angel, it's a miracle
Your love is like a river, peaceful and deep
Your soul is like a secret I never could keep
When I look into your eyes, I know that it's true
God must've spent a little more time on you
Felicity's POV
I then went to give my speech. I hoped I would say the right thing. I took the microphone.
"So I have a speech to give." I announced. "My whole life, I've never known what it was like to have a father. I'd like to raise a toast to Burt and my mom for that. I also want to thank my mom for being my mom and dad for all those years. I know the portmanteau is common right now. Sam and I are Salicity, Quinn and I are Fuinn, but now there's a new one: Fate. I'm sorry I haven't really been there for you lately, sis. Here's me trying to make it up to you."
There's nothing I could say to you, nothing I could ever do
To make you see what you mean to me
All the pain, the tears I cried, still you never said goodbye
And now I know how far you'd far go
I know I let you down, but it's not like that now
This time I'll never let you go
I will be all that you want
And get myself together
Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life I'll be with you forever
And get you through the day
And make everything okay
Cause without you I can't sleep
I'm not gonna ever, ever let you leave
You're all I've got, you're all I want yeah
And without you I don't know what I'd do
I could never ever live a day without you
Here with me, do you see you're all I need
And I will be all that you want
And get myself together
Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life I'll be with you forever
And get you through the day
And make everything okay
I will be all that you want
And get myself together
Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life I'll be with you forever
And get you through the day
And make everything okay
"There's also something else I want to do." I declared as Quinn came up to the stage and I walked over the Burt. "Burt, can I have this dance?"
Back when I was a child, before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me
And then he would spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me and I knew for sure I was loved
If I could get another chance, another walk,
Another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never ever end
How I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again
Sometimes I'd listen outside the door and hear how Mama would cry for him
I pray for her even more than me, I pray for her even more than me
I know I'm praying for much too much but could you send back the only man she loved
I know that you don't do it usually but dear Lord she's dying to dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream
On mother, we were all in Sue's office. She was telling us Sara's expulsion was overturned.
"You've got to be kidding me!" I yelled. "How can they just let her threaten my sister?"
"They decided not to do anything about it." Sue explained. "I don't agree with this decision, but there is no proof."
"I can't go back to being terrified all the time." Kate declared.
"Kids who bully for the most part have been bullied themselves." Sue stated. "Now Sara's not going to like you. In fact, she might hate you more. I'm doing the one thing that I can do and kicking her off the squad. I am also resigning from my position as principal in protest. I'll be an extra pair of eyes in the hallway. Besides I miss my office. This place smells weird."
Later in Glee club, Kate said she had something to tell us. I didn't know what she was talking about.
"For starters, I wanted to thank everyone for helping with the wedding, especially Felicity. It's nice to know that I have true friends here, as well as a true sister…which is why it's so hard for me to leave." She said.
"What do you mean leave?" Quinn asked.
"I'm transferring to Crawford Country Day immediately." She answered. "My parents are using the money they had saved for their honeymoon."
"Kate, you can't do this." I begged with tears in my eyes.
"Felicity, there's nothing you can say to make me stay." She declared. "Sara's coming back tomorrow, so I won't be. The only thing that can really protect me is what they have at Crawford. I'm sorry but I have to go."
"Does this mean you'll be competing against us?" Rex asked. I glared. That wasn't important. I couldn't believe this was happening.
So we don't know if Felicity and Quinn danced. Did they? Plus how will Kate adjust to Crawford because that will be seen. The songs are "I'm a Believer" by The Monkees, "God Must've Spent" by *NSYNC, "I Will Be" by Avril and "Dance with my Father" by Luther Vandross. Please don't forget to review.
