I swear I'm behind on writing ALREADY. God so should have seen this coming when I took up a third story...Oh well I'm updating on time!
Chapter 37: Phone Calls
"Brittany where are you?" Is the first thing Leah says when I answer my phone, I have in on loud speaker as I drive to Lima as fast as I possibly can, keeping track of the setting sun.
"I'm driving home. I had a setback on the way out of New York."
"Did you crash?" She asks
"No, I'm fine." I roll my eyes
"Well when you do get back you need to come to ours because your mums freaking out so I told her you'd stayed here because you didn't want to risk driving back to yours in the dark."
"And how will I get into your house without Aunt Helena seeing me?"
"Climb the tree and come through the window. Duh."
"Okay just promise you won't be 'Stirring up a Storm' When I come."
"Oh Britt that's gross." Stormy's voice comes though the phone. Wow, three way call ambush much?
"And really really bad" Leah scoffs
"I didn't mean it like that." I grin, feigning innocence
"Suuuure…" Leah giggles before sighing "Britt your mums calling I'm putting you guys on hold."
A few minutes later Leah reconnects to my phone and I'm about to make a sarcastic comment when my mums voice comes though
"Are you okay at Leah's Britt?"
"Yeah mum, I'm nineteen; you don't need to worry about me."
"You're still my baby, I don't want you getting hurt."
"Okay mum can I go now?"
"Yes I'll let you get back to the sleepover. Bye Honey!"
"Bye mum." She hangs up and I hear both Leah and Stormy chuckling from their lines which, surprise surprise, remained quiet throughout that whole conversation. "Shut it bitches." I hang up on them and continue the long drive back to Lima.
…
"Hannah!" Lily calls as her and Olivia walk into the apartment after a double date which Hannah and Chris decided not to come on
"H!" Olivia calls as they head into the kitchen. Suddenly the haunting tones of a violin ripple through the house and they both sigh; of course she'd be practicing. They walk into her room as she sets the violin on the bed, not seeing them, and flops down sadly.
"I got this" Lily whispers so Olivia walks out as she shuts the door
"Hannah?" The blonde looks up in surprise "What's up?"
"Nothings up" Lily rolls her eyes
"Is it the violin?" She asks and Hannah looks at her in shock "I've known you since Kindergarten H, whenever you play the violin you get this look on your face like you hate it and I've been waiting for you to admit it.
"It doesn't matter whether I like it or not." Hannah tells her "What matters is that the band needs a violin for a lot of songs and I'm the only one who plays it."
"Well if we use it so much maybe we should just find a violinist."
"Where? It's a god damn awful instrument." Hannah scoffs and Lily laughs
"Tia and Maddy have their ways." Lily's eyes sparkle with amusement as she recalls some of the situations they've got through "We're putting the Hunger Games on" She sing songs and Hannah sighs, secretly unable to resist her favourite movie
"I'll be in in a minute."
…
When Kurt walks into the kitchen early the next morning he is surprised and not at all delighted to see that Rachel is already up and grinning at him from behind a cup of her crappy vegan coffee.
"What?" He asked
"I have gossip." Kurt's grin matches hers as he sits down opposite
"Oh do tell?"
"Right, so you know how Miss Tibedeux went crazy on one of the violinists the other day?" Kurt nods, how could he forget? She lobbed the instrument across the room and practically dragged the poor kid out. "Well I heard they already found a replacement and Pippa, May and Lola say that apparently she auditioned last year but her acting wasn't quite strong enough and she's hoping she might have a chance by being in the band because she'll still be in the school even if she isn't on the musical theatre course."
"No way." Kurt scoffs
"It's true. Ask them."
"Please, they're complete gossips. You can't believe everything they say."
"Well wouldn't you?" Rachel raises an eyebrow "I mean, if you had only just escaped getting in and there was an opening to play the instrument you played in the school's band wouldn't you take it and see if you could convince them to let you in?"
"Well I guess I would-"
"Cool so we're helping her right?"
"What? No!" Kurt yells "Rachel we could get kicked out for this!"
"Come on it'll be fun!"
"No!"
"I dare you." Rachel challenges
"How old are you?"
"Nineteen" She giggles, grabbing his hands "Please!"
"Rachel he said no." Santana yawns from the doorway, grabbing Rachel's coffee cup and taking a sip before running over and spitting it in the sink "Holy crap that's gross!" Kurt laughs at her expense "Remind me not to do that again." She rinses her mouth out from Kurt's cup before sitting down "What's this girl even called Rachel? Do you know anything about her?"
"No but-"
"Precisely." Santana smirks as the phone rings "I'll get it. Hello?" She almost drops the phone when she hears who it is.
"Santana?"
...
Ohhh! Who's on the other end?! My friend took FOREVER to get this and only because I did a really crappy voice impression (Pippa3OneDirection ;).)
