Day of the pageant
In honor of Gatekeeper opening today here's a new chapter
"Sami sweetie it's time to wake up" Artie says waking up his daughter
"Few more minutes daddy" she says burying her head under the pillow
"Okay sweetie I'll let you sleep a few more minutes then you have to get up eat breakfast and get ready for your pageant" he says rolling over to check on Anna
(Few minutes later)
"Sami come on it's time to go down and eat breakfast and come up to get ready for your pageant" he says pulling the covers down
"Okay daddy she says getting up to use the potty
Once everyone was up showered and dresses they all headed downstairs to the breakfast buffet to eat breakfast, and after breakfast they all headed upstairs to Kurt's and Blaine's room to get Sami ready
"First Sami let's put on your pretty pageant dress" Artie says as he gets her dress out of the suitcase
"That's a real pretty dress for a really pretty girl" Kurt says smiling
"Thank you Sami says
"Now turn around so daddy can zip you" Artie says when the dress is on her
"Since your dress is on now to get all prettied up for the judges" Kurt says lifting Sammy up and onto the chair
"I'll be right back guys I'm going to get Anna ready" Artie says heading back to his room
"Okay Sami can you look up so I can do your really pretty eyes" Quinn asks her
Sami looks straight up at the ceiling while her eyes got done
"Now to give those lovely lips some color" Kurt says applying the lipstick
"While Quinn does your eyes, and Kurt does your lips I'm going to do your cheeks" Blaine says as he starts to apply the blush to Sami's check bones
(Ten minutes later)
"There we go Sami now you look like a movie star" Kurt says after Sami had her make-up all done
"Really?" she asks
"Yeah see for yourself" he says handing her a mirror
"Daddy I look really pretty" she says when her dad rolls back in the room with Anna on his lap
"Yes you do sugar bear now let's go down and get you checked in" he says as he takes her down to check in for the pageant
"Now to put on our Team Sami shirts" Kurt says as he goes puts his on
(An hour later)
"Welcome everyone to the little Miss Speedway pageant" the announcer says welcoming everyone to the pageant
"First we are going to start with our 0-12 months" the announcer says as the little babies begin making their way across the stage
After the infants were done it was time for Sami's age group to go on stage
"Now if the two year olds could please making their way to the side of the stage please" the announcer says nicely
"Come on Sami" Artie says taking his oldest one to take her place with the others
"Coming daddy" she says following her father
Sami felt confident in herself that she could do the routine without her daddy there, so she had him wait in the audience with Quinn. Backstage she was shaking those jitters out of her so she was ready when it was her turn to go on stage
"Next contestant number #17 Samantha Abrams" the announcer says as Sami walks on stage
"Sami has one sister name Anna and her favorite color is purple, and she loves singing and dancing with her daddy" the announcer says as Sami does her stage presence for the judges
Sami did everything perfectly, and got off the stage so she could up to get into her doll costume
"Sami sweetie hold up" Artie says as he goes after the excited two year old
"I think she has this pageant in the bag" Kurt says to Blaine as they follow Artie back up to the room to get Sami ready for outfit of choice
"I guess she doesn't want to miss her cue for outfit of choice" Quinn says as she carries Beth and tries to catches up with Kurt and Blaine
"Sweetie you were great now to get you in your Regionals dress and get you prettied back up for the judges" Artie says getting into the elevator with her
"Thank you daddy" she says smiling
In the room Sami got a snack to munch on while she got into her regionals dress, and got her make-up re-applied before heading back down to compete in the outfit of choice
"Kurt don't forget to grab the box" Artie calls as he leaves the room with Sami and Anna
"I won't Artie I got it right here" Kurt says carry the colorful box that says show choir doll on the box
They got downstairs just in time for the outfit of choice to start, and when it almost time for Sami's turn she went backstage with Kurt and Blaine to get into her box
"When we take you on stage remember to stay in the box until the music starts" Kurt reminds her
"Okay" she says inside the box
"Please welcome back to the stage contestant number #17 Samantha Abrams" the announcer says as Kurt and Blaine bring the box onto the stage and quickly exit to watch from
When the music started Sami open the box and stepped out to showcase her moves that she learned from dancing with the New Directions, and the dance class she is taking. After the music was over Sami went back into the box and Kurt and Blaine came back on stage to get her to take her back up to the room.
"Sami you got this pageant in the bag" Artie says as he carries the sleeping Anna back up to the room to put her down for her nap
"Daddy how long until I get a crown" she asks
"Awhile sweetie right now let's go get you some lunch and you take a nap and rest up for crowning" he says opening the door to their hotel room
"I am a little hungry daddy, and a little sleepy" she says sitting on the bed
"Okay I'll order us room service" he says going to the phone to order lunch for the two of them
Sami ate her lunch and watch cartoons before taking a nap. While both girls snoozed Artie took a nap as well
(Crowing)
"Who's ready for crowing?' the announcer asks the crowd
The audience cheers
"Okay if our 0-12 age group please come up here please" the announcer asks
While the babies were getting crowned Sami was getting antsy for her turn to go up on stage. Once all the babies got crowned Sami's age group got called up
"Prettiest eyes goes to Samantha Abrams" the announcer says as Sami gets her trophy
Sami pretty won every category in her age group, and when she didn't get queen she got really excited
"Daddy look at my trophies" she says trying to carry them to her daddy
"I see them give them to Kurt to put in the R.V" he tells her
During the rest of the crowning Artie kept wondering what higher title she pulled for
"Now it's time to move on to our mini supreme" the announcer says as she starts announcing the winners of each age group mini supreme. Quinn got excited when Sami didn't get called for mini supreme
"Artie she won the pageant" Quinn says all excited
"She won a big title her first time out" he says as the announcer announces the grand supreme
"Our grand supreme winner is Samantha Abrams" the announcer says as Quinn, Beth, Kurt, and Blaine cheer as Artie takes her up to the stage to get her big crown and trophy and a bounce doll house, and another ride on, and a big wad of cash
"Daddy can I drive it out of the hotel" she asks as she drives it on stage
"We'll see sweetie" he says as he takes her picture with the other big winners
After Sami had her picture taken Artie put the money in a safe spot for now until they got home
"Beth you want a ride?" Sami asks her friend
"No thank you" she says as she keeps walking
"Anna you want a ride?" Sami asks her sister
"Ya Sa sa" she says clapping her hands
"Hang on sweetie let daddy secure you in and sissy can drive you put to the R.V" Artie says following behind with the bounce doll house in his lap
"Artie where do you want us to put this trophy?" Kurt asks from behind
"In the master Kurt" Artie says as they approach the doors out of the hotel
Artie puts Sami's new bounce doll house under the R.V in one of the storage compartments, and he looks where he could put her ride on for now
"Sami, Anna you guys can go up daddy's lift cause I don't see a spot to put your ride on for now sweetie" he says lowering the lift
"Ya" they say together as Sami drives up to the ramp to go back in the R.V for the ride home
Once Sami and Anna was in she takes it to the master so she can get her pajamas on, and get Anna's on. After Artie was in the R.V they headed home
"Daddy look at Anna" Sami says driving out in her little convertible
"You got your sister ready for bed?" he asks her
"Yes daddy" she says happily
"Thanks sweetie for trying you did a good job but you forgot to give her a new diaper" he says taking Anna to get a dry diaper on
