-Chapter 43-A good return-

-Shelby pov-

Today is the first day back to school. I really do not expect much from this day. The kids probably will all be exhausted. I have honestly not seen any of them all morning.

I wonder if they are all ok? Maybe they just have been busy! I guess I will find out in a minute. Is that music I hear?

I open the door to the club room and my jaw drops.

-Blaine singing-

(Ho!)

(Hey!)

(Ho!)

(Hey!)

(Ho!) I've been trying to do it right

(Hey!) I've been living a lonely life

(Ho!) I've been sleeping here instead

(Hey!) I've been sleeping in my bed,

(Ho!) Sleeping in my bed

(Hey!)

(Ho!)

(Ho!) So show me family

(Hey!) All the blood that I would bleed

(Ho!) I don't know where I belong

(Hey!) I don't know where I went wrong

(Ho!) But I can write a song

(Hey!)

1, 2, 3

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet

(Ho!)

(Hey!)

(Ho!)

(Hey!)

(Ho!) I don't think you're right for him.

(Hey!) Look at what it might have been if you

(Ho!) took a bus to China Town.

(Hey!) I'd be standing on Canal

(Ho!) and Bowery.

(Hey!)

(Ho!) And she'd be standing next to me.

(Hey!)

1, 2, 3

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart

Love. We need it now

Let's hope for some

'Cause, oh, we're bleeding out

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet

(Ho!)

(Hey!)

(Ho!)

(The last one)

(Hey!)

"Yeah that was good" Sam walks up to the piano with a smirk "But I have learned the piano!"

-Sam singing-

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday

The regular crowd shuffles in

There's an old man sitting next to me

Making love to his tonic and gin

He says, "Son can you play me a memory

I'm not really sure how it goes

But it's sad and it's sweet

And I knew it complete

When I wore a younger man's clothes."

Sing us a song you're the piano man

Sing us a song tonight

Well we're all in the mood for a melody

And you've got us feeling alright

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine

He gets me my drinks for free

And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke

But there's someplace that he'd rather be

He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."

As a smile ran away from his face

"Well, I'm sure that I could be a movie star

If I could get out of this place."

Now Paul is a real estate novelist

Who never had time for a wife

And he's talking with Davy, who's still in the Navy

And probably will be for life

And the waitress is practicing politics

As the businessmen slowly get stoned

Yes they're sharing a drink they call "Loneliness"

But it's better than drinking alone

Sing us a song you're the piano man

Sing us a song tonight

Well we're all in the mood for a melody

And you've got us feeling alright

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday

And the manager gives me a smile

'Cause he knows that it's me they've been coming to see

To forget about life for a while

And the piano it sounds like a carnival

And the microphone smells like a beer

And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar

And say, "Man, what are you doing here?"

Sing us a song you're the piano man

Sing us a song tonight

Well we're all in the mood for a melody

And you've got us feeling alright

I fully walk in as Kitty walks to the band. She says something and they all nod. Soon they are playing and she walks to the front. What is happening in here?

-Kitty singing-

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I don't like your girlfriend!

No way! No way!

I think you need a new one

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I could be your girlfriend

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I know that you like me

No way! No way!

You know it's not a secret

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I want to be your girlfriend

You're so fine

I want you mine

You're so delicious

I think about you all the time

You're so addictive

Don't you know what I can do to make you feel alright (alright, alright, alright, alright)?

Don't pretend. I think you know I'm damn precious

And—hell, yeah!—

I'm the motherfucking princess

I can tell you like me too, and you know I'm right (I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, I'm right)

She's like so whatever

You could do so much better

I think we should get together now

And that's what everyone's talking about!

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I know that you like me

No way! No way!

You know it's not a secret

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I want to be your girlfriend

I can see the way, I see the way you look at me

And even when you look away I know you think of me

I know you talk about me all the time again and again (again, again, again)

(So come over here)

So, come over here and tell me what I wanna hear

Better yet make your girlfriend disappear

I don't wanna hear you say her name ever again (and again, and again, and again)

'Cause she's like so whatever

And you could do so much better

I think we should get together now

And that's what everyone's talking about!

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I don't like your girlfriend!

No way! No way!

I think you need a new one

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I could be your girlfriend

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I know that you like me

No way! No way!

You know it's not a secret

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I want to be your girlfriend

In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger

'Cause I can, 'cause I can do it better

There's no other

So, when's it gonna sink in?

She's so stupid

What the hell were you thinking?!

In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger

'Cause I can, 'cause I can do it better

There's no other

So, when's it gonna sink in?

She's so stupid

What the hell were you thinking?!

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I don't like your girlfriend!

No way! No way!

I think you need a new one

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I could be your girlfriend

No way! No way!

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I know that you like me

No way! No way!

You know it's not a secret

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I want to be your girlfriend

No way! No way!

I don't like your girlfriend!

Hey! Hey! You! You!

I want to be your girlfriend

No way! No way!

Hey! Hey!

"Well" Everyone turns toward me and I smile happily "Anyone else got a potential solo tryout?"

"I-I do" Marley stands up slowly "I have one"

"Floor is yours Marley!" Blaine leans on sams back "Show us what you got!"

Marley nods and walks down to risers. She goes to the band and takes with them. She slowly walks over to the front and takes a deep breath. She begins when the band starts.

-Marley singing-

I don't wanna hear you've got a boyfriend

Sometimes you're better off alone

But if you change your mind, you know where I am

Yeah, if you change your mind, you know where to find me

But I don't ever wanna be your boyfriend

And never did I think that I

Would be caught in the way you got me

Push another girl aside and just give in

Girls love girls and boys (sophisticated, manipulated)

Girls love girls and boys (sophisticated, manipulated)

And never did I think that I

Would be caught in the way you got me

But girls love girls and boys

And love is not a choice

Pose, you've gotta save your reputation

They're close to finding out about your girlfriend

But if you change your mind, you know where I am

Yeah, if you change your mind, you know where to find me

But I don't wanna save your reputation

And never did I think that I

Would be caught in the way you got me

Push another girl aside and just give in

Girls love girls and boys (sophisticated, manipulated)

Girls love girls and boys (sophisticated, manipulated)

And never did I think that I

Would be caught in the way you got me

But girls love girls and boys

And love is not a choice

I am just a villain vying for attention from a girl

A girl who can't decide and here's the reason why

Girls love girls and boys (sophisticated, manipulated)

Girls love girls and boys (sophisticated, manipulated)

Girls love girls and boys (sophisticated, manipulated)

Girls love girls and boys (sophisticated, manipulated)

And never did I think that I

Would be caught in the way you got me

But girls love girls and boys

And love is not a choice

The room erupts but I notice the looks. Kitty and Marley have eye contact on each other. The looks say all they have to. No words need to be said between them.

"You all did amazing!" I open the club door with a smile "I will take the time and tell you who got the solo! Go one and enjoy a day! Take you times!"

Everyone rushes out but two girls. Kitty is the first to break eye contact and leave. She gives me a nod before walking out. I slowly walk over to Marley and look at her.

I pull her into me as she starts to cry. Glee definitely just got more interesting. Hopefully these two figure this out. They both deserve to be happy.

All I can do now is watch and wait.
