So even though the glee club and Ashley's family haven't met I put this chapter in here as it's necessary for the storyline, for 2 reasons. 1, the more people that come to the concert the more that'll buy the CDs to raise money to help with Kate's hospital bills. And 2, by going to the concert the glee club can see how good a singer/dancer Ashley is.
Puck
I was sitting in a wood chair in Spanish with the rest of the glee club that morning listening to our teacher Mr. Schue drone on. Outside it was sunny and warm. I knew this from looking out the window.
"Puck," Mr. Schue said from the front of the room getting my attention.
He had light brown hair and green eyes. He was tall and thin.
"Um…..que?" I asked a bit out of it thinking I'd get credit for at least asking in Spanish.
"I just asked you the answer to the math problem written on the board. 'que' is not the answer nor is it a number."
"Oh," I said slightly embarrassed.
The class laughed.
"Alrite well it seems everyone could use a break."
"You're letting us out of class early?" Tina a member of the club asked excitedly.
"Well, no. not….not exactly."
"Oh."
"I'm letting you out of the class. But that's only so we can go to the park."
"For more class?"
"No, actually. You'll find out on the way. Cmon let's go."
We stood, chatting.
"Dude I would've done the same thing," Cory another member of the club and a football player told me trying to help.
He meant that if he hadn't paying attention he would've had a similar response.
"Thanks," I told him.
I noticed he smelled good. Like cologne. He was about my height. He had dark brown hair. He was built as they say. Like a football player. Prolly bc he was one. I was built too but not as much as him.
"I hope we're not out too long it could cut into our rehearsal time if we're out too long," Rachel a 3rd member of the club said already annoyed.
She had dark brown hair and brown eyes. She was smaller than the others.
She was known to put the club and her ambitions of being a star ahead of everything.
"Rachel would you relax? We have hours," Mike a 4th member said.
He had dark hair and eyes. He also smelled good. He was tall and thin.
"Yeah and everyone could use a break," Santanna a 5th member and cheerleader said.
She had dark hair and eyes.
"Yeah," Brittany a 6th member and another cheerleader echoed.
She had blonde hair and blue gray eyes.
Santanna and Brittany were all shorter than Cory, Mike and I. They smelled like perfume. Cory, Mike and I were 5'8. Santanna and Brittany were 5'4. Rachel was 5'2. Rachel was thinner than the others.
-XXX-
We walked out of the class, down the hall, down the stairs and out the big tall red brick front doors of the big tall red brick school. From there across the wide green front lawn and black street to the big green park.
"So what exactly is going on?" Dianna a 7th member and the 3rd cheerleader asked.
She also smelled like perfume and was the same height and body type as Santanna and Brittany. She had light brown hair and hazel eyes.
"We're going to a concert," Mr. Schue informed us.
"But, we don't have tickets," Brittany said confused.
She was easily confused.
"I'm pretty sure it's free."
"Oh."
"Yeah I heard about it from a friend of mine."
We walked further into the park. We heard a crowd chatting and headed that direction. There was a big crowd sitting in front of a big black stage.
"Wow look at all these people half the school must be out here!" Amber a 8th member said surprised.
She had dark hair and eyes. She was built, a lot more than the others. She was 5'4.
"Yeah I know," Chris a 9th member said.
"So everyone have a seat," Mr. Schue told us.
We sat on the green grass behind the crowd.
Chris was taller than Santanna, Brittany, Dianna and Amber but shorter than Cory, Mike and myself. He also smelled like cologne. He had dark brown hair and blue eyes. He was small. He was 5'6.
I looked at a gorgeous blonde in pink and black. Her hair was medium length. She was thin but not too thin. Built as they say. She looked to be about 5'4. She stepped onto the stage. She had a good stage presence.
She introduced herself and said one of her sisters had cancer which is why they were having the concert.
"Wow," I said taken aback by how pretty she was.
"Yeah I know. She's cute," Cory, who was next to me, said, following my gaze.
"And beautiful."
"I wonder if she goes to our school."
"Well if she does I haven't seen her.
"Though it's a big school, so."
"Yeah…yeah."
"Mr. Schue we should do that!" Chris cried.
Mr. Schue looked at him; "what Chris?"
"Have a concert to raise money for her sister."
"Sure why not?"
"And our upcoming glee club trip!" Rachel cried.
"Ok."
"I just hope she's not our competition."
"And girl even if she is, we can beat her. We're what, 8 to 1?" Amber told her.
"Yeah. You're right."
The blonde onstage opened her mouth and started to sing. She was really good had the vocal range of Rachel.
"She is really good," Dianna said.
"I know," Brittany said.
"If she does go to our school think I'll ask her to join the club," Mr. Schue said.
Even Rachel was impressed sitting there for once not talking with her mouth shut. She was known to talk a lot.
"She's as good as I am," she whispered in awe.
"Yeah," Cory said.
"I want a CD," Dianna said.
"Me too," amber said.
"As do I," Rachel said.
"I think we all do," Santanna said.
"Alrite I'll buy," Mr. Schue said.
"Thanks!" Chris said.
"Hey it's the least I can do. And why not help out someone else?"
"Yeah. Yeah…..exactly."
A few minutes later the girl and a few others stood and began dancing.
"Wow," Dianna said in awe.
They were as good dancers as they were singers.
"And I'll, ask them to join the cheerios," Brittany said.
