Marley sighs as she tries on yet another dress for the dance. Her, Kitty and Unique went shopping together after glee. Out of the three of them, Kitty is the only one going with a date, which is Artie. Kitty walks out of the changing rooms and spins, showing off the bubblegum pink dress that she's wearing. "Didn't you ask Jake to go with you? He would've said yes." Kitty says as Unique holds up two dresses, both her and Marley pointing to the one on the right. "Well I did ask someone but he can't make it so I just decided to go stag with friends. Jake doesn't deserve to be asked even though he's going with Bree." Marley rolls her eyes as she picks up a floor length purple dress which Kitty shakes her head at. "Isn't Tina going with Sam?" Unique asks, deciding on a dress. "Well I think she was going to but then he ditched to go to New York with Blaine." Marley adds as she struggles to get into a baby blue tight dress. Kitty hands her a jade green short dress that flares out at the waist and then shoves her into the dressing rooms again.

"Dude I had girls throwing themselves at me all week and now I can't even go." Sam complains as he bench presses weights. Jake and Ryder are doing arm curls, trying to out do each other while Blaine works over a punching bag. "Then stay here, trust me I don't think this weekend is going to be as fun as you seem to think." Blaine grunts in between swings.

"Dude and miss the Klaine reunion? You're crazy. Absolutely not." Jake and Ryder both sniffle back a laugh as the punching bag swings back and hits Blaine because he's too busy glaring at Sam. "I'm going to ignore that. Kurt and I are not getting back together." Blaine mutters before turning his attention back to the punching bag. "Come on, the dance would've been fun." Sam presses. "Yup, one hell of a night." Blaine sarcastically remarks, clearly focussed on fighting, "Had a date and everything." Both Ryder and Jake are shocked. Neither one is excited about the dance. Jake is going with Bree and Ryder is going with some other cheerleader. He was hoping that Marley would ask him but she never did so he said yes to some cheerleader.

"Wait," Jake starts, Ryder following with, "Who?"

Blaine has his back to them so they can't see the smirk spreading across his face. "Just a friend. Feel kinda bad, she seemed really excited." Blaine states, not telling them who 'she' is.

"Hold up," Ryder starts this time, having Jake follow up with, "Who?"

"Oh, uh Marley, she asked about a week ago. If I didn't have this audition I'd totally go with her." Blaine holds his hand out, stilling the swinging bag before pulling the velcro back and taking off the boxing gloves and unwrapping the tape on his hands. Blaine punches Sam in the leg on his way by. "I'll pick you up in about two hours," Blaine volunteered to drive to the airport because it's about fifteen minutes away from Dalton and he knows the fastest back roads. After Blaine heads out Sam does too, heading home to shower up and pack. He's known about going to New York with Blaine for a while now but he still didn't bother to pack, waiting until last minute like everything else he does in his life. After both of the seniors clear out Ryder asks Jake if he's going to ask Marley to dance at the Sadie Hawkins. "Doubt it. I have a date and I've moved on. Are you?" Jake asks back, trying to act disinterested. Ryder did want he promised Jake, back off of Marley while they were in a relationship but then Jake cheated on her and broke her heart so now it's Ryder's turn. "I'll probably ask to dance." Jake just nods, brushing it off that his best friend is moving in on the girl that should be his. "Cool."

"Are you excited for LA? I mean I know that you've been there with Puck before but are you excited for Nationals?" Ryder asks, changing the subject for Jake. "It's warm. I'm excited for the warm weather."

"I'm so excited to try surfing." Ryder says, only to be made fun of by Jake. "Oh please, you don't have the balance to go surfing. You'll just hurt yourself."

Ryder doesn't have the finesse that Jake does but he has the drive to beat Jake.
