Chapter 13.-No one
Hey guys! I'm so happy that you loved the Phil Collins tribute so much. Surely you didn't notice that Phil himself made a cameo appearance when he played George, the owner of the music store where Blaine and Kurt met.
It was really funny and his character was great even though his scene was small.
Until today I could start writing this chapter; to be honest being an adult is hard and complicated, between work, church, seeing my friends, being a writer in my free time and stuff I barely have time to work on this fanfic, also I recently updated my other story focused in Latin America named Marigold on Wattpad.
Anyways, two important people return in this chapter: Rachel's cousin Peyton (Grace Fulton) and Mike's little sister Michelle (Peyton Elizabeth Lee), who was the one that calmed Josh (Asher Angel), when he suffered the panic attack and the two ended up sharing their first kiss.
As you know, in each chapter things happen and there are recaps; In this case, the things that will happen are:
1.-Peyton, Rachel (Lea Michele) and Olivia (Olivia Rodrigo), are stressed as they start their day at college and school respectively and the three of them have to deal with a chaotic monday.
2.-Finn (Cory Monteith), Puck (Mark Salling), and Josh notice that Rachel and Olivia are stressed out and they sing to them trying to make them feel better, with an unexpected response by the two friends.
3.-Marley (Melissa Benoist) confronts Sebastian (Grant Gustin) want to know if he loves her after they kiss
4.-Rachel is tormented and slushied by Quinn Fabray (Dianna Agron), so Olivia stands up for Rachel and the two girls share an emotional moment.
5.-And as for Jake (Jacob Artist) suddenly quitting glee club after he finds out that his ex-girlfriend and Sebastian kissed, Ryder (Blake Jenner) talks to his girlfriend Marissa (Ginny Gardner) about joining New Directions.
Warning! This chapter rates M for sexual themes
Okay, so…Having said this, let's get started.
A week ago…
Peyton turns in bed trying to sleep, it is impossible since disturbing and erotic sounds wake her up from her cousin's room.
"Please don't" Peyton begged, placing the pillow on top of her but the moans and groans were more intense. "Are you kidding me?!"
Ohh! Yes! Ooohhh, Finn!" Rachel moaned in ecstasy.
"Come on" Peyton groans in frustration as she hears her cousin and then hears….
"Rachel! Oh, baby! I love you!" a familiar voice groaned as Rachel moaned.
"Ohh! Ohh! Oooh, Finny! Ohh, yes!" Rachel arched her back in pleasure.
"That's it!" Peyton removes the blankets from herself, gets up from the bed and walks barefoot towards her cousin's bedroom, where she hears the bed squeak and the headboard bang against the wall. Furiously, she knocks on the door with her first. "RACHEL! Do you want to stop having sex with Finn for five seconds?! I'm trying to sleep and I can't because of your moans and I'm going to college early tomorrow! do me a favor and shut up!" Suddenly, the noises stopped. "Thank you!" She adds sarcastically and then sighs of relief. "Thank goodness, Now that the nightmare is over, I'll go back to sleep"
After an intense moment of sex and Finn screaming Rachel's name with pleasure and Rachel gasping for breath from the powerful orgasm her handsome boyfriend gave her, the two collapsed on Rachel's bed totally exhausted, sweating, tangled in the sheets and totally naked.
"That was..." Finn started to say.
"Amazing" Rachel finished and the two of them looked into each other's eyes. "I didn't know you were so good in the sack"
"Considering you're the first and only girl I've ever slept with I appreciate the compliment babe" Finn smiled and kissed her mouth again. "So what about you huh? you drove me crazy, you're so sexy"
"Would you please shut up?" Peyton's voice sounded again. "some of us are trying to sleep here
"Oh God" Rachel exclaimed, hiding her face in Finn's bare chest. "please tell me we didn't have sex while my cousin was asleep"
"Yeah we did," Finn sheepishly says. "She heard us"
"Oh my God!" Rachel sits up and puts the blankets over her bare chest. "That was embarrassing, Poor Peyton, now I won't be able to look her in the eye"
"well, your room isn't exactly soundproof Rach" Finn told her. "surely everyone heard you when I was giving you pleasure"
"Shut up Finn Hudson, you're not that quiet either" Rachel told him. "And now what are we going to do? I can't face my cousin, she will surely hate me and I don't blame her"
"I'm sorry love, I didn't measure the consequences" Finn approached to kiss her forehead. "I promise that I won't sleep with you again"
"Don't be silly, of course I want us to continue having sex" Rachel told him. "It's amazing and I'm closer to you, but...let's just try to be more discreet next time"
I don't get it" Finn was confused. "The last time I came to your house and that was when we made up; I made love to you three times and there was no problem"
"I was home alone," Rachel said. "Peyton went for a run in the park; now it's different because she's here now" she yawned. "I'm sorry"
"You're exhausted babe" Finn lovingly said to her pulling her closer to him. "Let's get some sleep okay? We have school tomorrow"
"Okay" Rachel agreed and kissed Finn on the lips. "I love you"
"I love you too beautiful" Finn reciprocated laying next to her and wrapped his arm around her stomach. "Good night" then both of them close their eyes and fall asleep.
Rachel was sleeping peacefully on her bed when suddenly opened her eyes and saw her alarm marking 6 o' clock in the morning.
"No" Rachel exclaimed and she immediately woke up from the bed putting her robe over her pajamas. "No"
She started running looking for her things; realizing that she had fallen asleep and was coming to school at 8; she had half an hour to get ready. and the reason was that she had stayed up all night talking on the phone with Finn until the clock struck one in the morning. After what had happened last week, they both agreed not to sleep together when someone was in the house .It was a manic Monday and for that reason Rachel was having problems.
(Rachel quickly makes her bed and takes a quick shower, when she returns to her room wearing a towel, she looks at the clock and this marks 7: 10 am, Rachel goes to her closet and starts searching for clothes)
[Rachel]
Six o'clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin' Valentino
By a crystal-blue, Italian stream
(On the other hand, Peyton is already dressed and making coffee, but she is putting her notebooks and books inside her backpack, she looks at her watch and starts panicking since she's already late for college, Rachel comes down running the stairs and joins Peyton for breakfast)
[Peyton]
But I can't be late
'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made
[Rachel and Peyton]
It's just another manic Monday (Woah, woah)
I wish it was Sunday (Woah, woah)
'Cause that's my fun day (Woah, woah, woah, woah)
My I don't have to run day (Woah, woah)
It's just another manic Monday
(Olivia is getting ready for school, she can't find her other shoe so she starts searching for it, sees the clock and freaks out, sighs of surrender and leaves the house quickly kissing her dad goodbye on the cheek and gets in the car, she doesn't notice that she is wearing different shoes)
[Olivia]
Have to catch an early train
Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an aeroplane
I still couldn't make it on time
'Cause it takes me so long (Oh, oh)
Just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there
It's just another manic Monday (Woah, woah)
I wish it was Sunday (Woah, woah)
'Cause that's my fun day (Woah, woah, woah, woah)
My I don't have to run day (Woah, woah)
It's just another manic Monday
(The scenes are intercut with Rachel and Peyton leaving the house and getting in the car to go to school and Olivia driving but the car stops midway and won't start anymore, the three girls start to get stressed)
[Rachel and Peyton]
Of all my nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down?
(Last night, last night)
Doesn't it matter
That I have to feed the both of us?
Employment's down
[Olivia]
He tells me in his bedroom voice
C'mon honey, let's go make some noise
Time it goes so fast
(When you're having fun)
[Rachel, Peyton and Olivia]
It's just another manic Monday (Woah, woah)
I wish it was Sunday (Woah, woah)
'Cause that's my fun day (Woah, woah, woah, woah)
My I don't have to run day (Woah, woah)
It's just another manic Monday (Woah, woah)
I wish it was Sunday (Woah, woah, woah, woah)
'Cause that's my fun day (Woah, woah)
It's just another manic Monday
Are you going to talk to me now?" Rachel asked her cousin as they both drove to school.
"You're the one giving me the silent treatment Rachel," Peyton told her. "I don't understand what I did to you"
"I thought you hated me," Rachel confessed. "Finn and I had sex and we didn't let you sleep. I was so embarrassed and...I'm sorry"
"I don't hate you Ray," Peyton told her. "I was just upset because you decided to sleep with your boyfriend one day before school and I had to be at college early," Peyton said. "I have nothing against Finn Hudson, I like him and I'm glad he makes you happy but come on; you guys are too loud and instead of your moans sounding hot it ends up being annoying. But that doesn't mean I hate you, you're my little cousin and I love you"
"I'm so sorry, Finn is so good in bed and when he's on top of me I orgasm" Rachek confesses shyly.
"I didn't need to know that," Peyton nervously says. "I can't believe you're only 16 and you already started your sexual life with Finn; I lost my virginity at 18; it was with my best friend by the way"
"Sean?" Rachel asks as Peyton nods. "Wow um…I never thought you guys were…"
"I'm kidding," Peyton laughs. "I'm still a virgin"
"Oh my God you are so mean," Rachel says. "I thought you slept with him"
"No, I mean…we played seven minutes in heaven in high school but we only made out, '' Peyton explained. "I want to have my first time when I get married" then she looks in the mirror and spots a brunette girl walking on the street wearing different shoes. "Hold on a second, is that…Olivia?"
"Yes she is" Rachel recognizes her friend and classmate as she honks. "Liv!" She stops the car. "What do you think you're doing? Get in!"
"Oh thank god" Olivia sighs in relief. "Hi Rach, hi Peyton" she gets in the car and sits in the backseat fasting her seat belt. "Thank you so much guys"
"What were you doing walking down the street alone and wearing different shoes?" Peyton asked as Rachel got back into the drive.
"Ugh,I hate Mondays, I'm always in trouble and it's Murphy's Law," Olivia explained. "My alarm never went off, I overslept, I couldn't find my shoe and just as I was driving to McKinley my car broke down. Dad had to call a tow truck and take it to Burt Hummel's tire shop"
"I'm stressed because I didn't set my alarm, I didn't do my elliptical, I overslept, I stayed up late..." Rachel began.
"You had sex with Finn and I couldn't sleep" completed Peyton.
"Peyton-Marie!" Rachel snapped, then glanced at Olivia in the rearview mirror. "please ignore that last one Liv"
"Don't worry Rachel, I know Finn lost his virginity with you" Olivia said.
"Yeah he...wait what?" Rachel was outraged. "Olivia you're my friend and I love you but... why the hell did Finn tell you about our sex life? That's private"
"It's not what you think" Olivia clarified. "Finn and I just talked about my awful breakup with Anthony and the reason why he dumped me with another girl just because I wasn't ready to give him my v-card and…he told me his own experience that's why. Please believe me that I don't have a crush on him, I respect the girl code. He's like my big brother"
Okay, you can talk to Finn if you want, I also know that Mr. Schuester made you sing a duet in the glee club" Rachel told her. "Just please don't try to steal him away from me"
"I won't," Olivia promised. "Like I said, Finn is an amazing big brother to me. Just that."
"Hey," Peyton finally spoke. "I don't want to interrupt this lovely conversation between you girls, but we're already late and if you don't want to stay out of school, I suggest you hurry up because I don't want to be late for mine either"
"We're here Peyton" Rachel told him as she parked in front of the university. "I just saw your itinerary and you're on time, your biology class starts in half an hour" her cousin sighed in relief.
"I still don't trust Mondays," Peyton told her. "And coz, promise that you and Finn will do the monkey business when I'm gone or find a soundproof room," she added with a smirk.
"Come on, go, I don't want you to be late for your orientation" Rachel said, shaking her head and opening the door for her cousin. "Do you want me to pick you up after class?"
"No, I know you guys have a glee club rehearsal at 3pm today," Peyton reminded her. "I'll take a bus and see you at home, I'll bring Chinese food"
"I like the idea" Rachel smiled and her cousin got out of the car, slinging her backpack over her shoulder and holding the books against her chest. "see you later Pey"
"Your cousin is awesome, Rach," Olivia says, smiling.
"I know" Rachel smiles and starts the car. "come on, let's go to school"
Meanwhile in English class, Miss Holly Holiday was giving a lesson on the "Little Women" book, and there were two empty desks.
"As you know, Little Women is a popular novel written by Luisa May Alcott about four sisters," Holly began to tell the class, she was dressed as Jo March, one of the four sisters and was wearing a long brown wig with soft curls. "Today I'm not Holly Holiday, my name is Josephine March and I want to be a writer one day, you can call me Jo" she puts her hands on her hips and frowns. "Are we missing someone?"
"Where are Rachel and Olivia?" Marley asked, confused. "they are never late for class"
"Rachel doesn't answer" Finn looked at his cell phone. "she sent me to voicemail"
"Are they okay?" Josh asked.
"Well... I guess Miss Berry and Miss Michaels won't be here today" Holly said, walking to the door to close it. "it's a pity that we have to continue the class without them"
"Wait!" Olivia yelled running up and stopping the door before Holly closed it. "Please don't close the door!"
"I'm sorry Olivia, but you and Rachel were halfway through class," Holly said. "they will have to wait outside"
"Miss Holiday please," Rachel pleaded. "It was a very stressful day and we can't miss English class..." She looked confused at the teacher's outfit. "Are you dressed like Jo March from Little Women?"
"Yes I am, but don`t change the subject ladies, you`re late" Holly said, folding her arms. "I should send you to detention and give you a report but... I'll give it to you this time if it doesn't happen again" Holly said. "Come into class, I was about to talk about the novel"
"Thank you Miss Holiday" smiled Olivia and linked her arm with Rachel's, Holly shook her head and smiled.
"Where were you?" Finn whispered as Rachel and Olivia entered the room and sat down at their desks. "Rachel, I've been calling you four times"
"Sorry, I overslept, I didn't set the alarm, Olivia's car broke down..." Rachel confessed. "And do you remember what happened last time? Peyton had trouble waking up, luckily she was able to make it to her orientation, but Olivia and I were late"
"Olivia…you're wearing different shoes" Josh said and they all saw the same thing.
"I couldn't find my other shoe," Olivia said. "I know I look ridiculous, I'm stressed lately"
"There are two of us now," Rachel said. "I can't concentrate and Mondays are not my day"
"Okay guys" Holly walked back into the living room. "I had to go out for a bit, I talked to Principal Figgins and he said that Rachel and Olivia are cleared this time, but next time they'll go to detention and have a tardy"
"Don't worry Miss Holiday, it won't happen again" Rachel promised.
"I hope so" Holly smiles satisfied. "Now, let's continue, shall we?"
At the end of class, Finn was walking through the halls with Rachel, Olivia and Josh talking about what had happened when Puck joined the conversation.
"Hello brother from another mother" Puck high-fived Finn. "Boy with dimples who sings like Justin Bieber, Berry and Mini Berry. How's everything?"
"Ugh, quite a stressful day," Rachel said. "Everything went completely wrong for me today, not to mention I overslept and almost made my cousin miss her orientation class in college."
"And Murphy's Law hit me again," Olivia said. "The car broke down, I had to walk from my house to school if it wasn't for Rachel and her cousin picking me up"
"Is it me or are you wearing different shoes?" Puck raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"I know!" Olivia snapped and everyone stared at her, it was the first time that Olivia Michaels, the sweet girl apart from Marley in New Directions who gave a slight physical resemblance to Rachel lost her temper.
"Whoa, Olivia, chill" Finn told her. "We understand that you are stressed but you don't have to take it out on others"
"I'm sorry" Olivia apologized. "I didn't mean to," she sighed in surrender. "The reason I'm wearing different shoes is because I couldn't find my shoe and I was already late for school"
"As long as the others don't notice," Josh said, acting casual. "Look…" he stopped at his locker and the others looked at him. "It's obvious that Rachel and Olivia are stressed, so they need us to help them"
"Please don't," Rachel pleaded. "I don't want any more stress in my life"
"Wait a sec Rachel, Josh has a point" Finn said. "Lately I've seen you stressed and Olivia too, I know what it's like to be stressed because I've already experienced that"
"What we want is for you to relax" said Puck. "because in the end, stress is not a good thing, someone who has a bad reputation tells you and with his Jewish family he has to appear to be the good boy who does not break a single plate; so ladies ... you are with the stress experts"
"Puck, I don't understand what you're talking about," Olivia said. "What do your roots have to do with being stressed?"
"When you're stressed, you care what people think, everything turns against you and you try to pretend that everything is fine when it's not," said Finn. "but we will teach you not to stress out"
("Stressed out" by Twenty one Pilots starts playing as Finn, Puck, Josh, Rachel and Olivia walk down the halls, the boys look at the girls explaining what is like to be stressed)
[Puck]
I wish I found some better sounds no one's ever heard
I wish I had a better voice that sang some better words
I wish I found some chords in an order that is new
[Finn]
I wish I didn't have to rhyme every time I sang
I was told when I get older, all my fears would shrink
But now I'm insecure, and I care what people think
[Josh]
My name's Blurryface and I care what you think
My name's Blurryface and I care what you think
Wish we could turn back time
To the good old days
When our momma sang us to sleep
But now we're stressed out (oh)
[Finn, Puck and Josh]
Wish we could turn back time (oh)
To the good old days (oh)
When our momma sang us to sleep
But now we're stressed out
We're stressed out
(As they walk down the halls, everyone else stare at them, but mostly at Olivia, who is wearing different shoes, Olivia gets nervous as Rachel shakes her head; Finn notices this as he and Puck make a face to ignore the stares and act casual, the girls obey and continue walking through the halls. the scene changes to the choir room, where Finn, Josh and Puck are singing and dancing but their eyes on Rachel and Olivia, the other members of New Directions take notice)
[Finn]
Sometimes a certain smell will take me back to when I was young
How come I'm never able to identify where it's coming from?
I'd make a candle out of it if I ever found it
Try to sell it, never sell out of it, I'd probably only sell one
[Puck]
It'd be to my brother, 'cause we have the same nose
Same clothes, homegrown, a stone's throw from a creek we used to roam
But it would remind us of when nothing really mattered
Out of student loans and treehouse homes, we all would take the latter
[Josh]
My name's Blurryface and I care what you think
My name's Blurryface and I care what you think
Wish we could turn back time
To the good old days
When our momma sang us to sleep
But now we're stressed out (oh)
[Finn, Josh and Puck]
Wish we could turn back time (oh)
To the good old days (oh)
When our momma sang us to sleep
But now we're stressed out
[Finn and Josh]
Used to play pretend, give each other different names
We would build a rocket ship and then we'd fly it far away
Used to dream of outer space, but now they're laughing at our face saying
"Wake up, you need to make money", yeah
[Puck]
We used to play pretend, give each other different names
We would build a rocket ship and then we'd fly it far away
Used to dream of outer space, but now they're laughing at our face saying
"Wake up, you need to make money", yeah
(Rachel and Olivia shake their head and with a big smile on their faces get up from their seats and go to dance with Finn, Josh and Puck)
[Finn, Puck and Josh]
Wish we could turn back time
To the good old days
When our momma sang us to sleep
But now we're stressed out (oh)
Wish we could turn back time (oh)
To the good old days (oh)
When our momma sang us to sleep
But now we're stressed out
[Puck]
We used to play pretend, used to play pretend, money
We used to play pretend, wake up you need the money
Used to play pretend, used to play pretend, money
We used to play pretend, wake up you need the money
Used to play pretend, give each other different names
We would build a rocket ship and then we'd fly it far away
Used to dream of outer space, but now they're laughing at our face saying
[Finn and Josh with New Directions]
"Wake up, you need to make money",
[Puck]
yeah
"Cool, Twenty One Pilots is my favorite band," Ryder said with a smile.
"Whoo!" New Directions exclaimed and started clapping.
"I must say that was the most decent performance they've had so far," Santana said with a smirk.
"Well done guys," said Will. "You can go back to your seats." Finn, Olivia, Rachel, Josh and Puck sat back down.
"Olivia…sweetie, you look so cute today and I love your outfit," Kurt told her gently. "but your shoes don't match"
"I think everyone saw that Olivia is wearing different shoes" Tina points out.
"You were abducted by aliens and your shoes were stolen?" Brittany asks Olivia innocently. "Because if so Lord Tubbington and I will travel to their planet to demand that they give them back to you"
"What is she talking about?" Jake was confused. "Olivia was not abducted by aliens"
"I know that" Olivia says shyly. "I lost a pair of my shoes and I was already late for school. Oh God this embarrassing" she covers her face with her hands. "now Quinn Fabray and her sidekicks will make fun of me"
"I have a pair of shoes in my locker that can fit you," Mercedes told the sophomore softly with a smile. "so when we finish the rehearsal you're coming with me"
"Thank you Mercedes," said Olivia, smiling. "You're my savior"
"Anytime girl" Mercedes told her.
"Are we going to talk about Olivia wearing different shoes or Finn, Josh and Puck singing a song about being stressed out?" Mike asked, raising his hand.
"That's exactly what I want to know." Will was curious. "I like the choice in that Twenty One Pilots song, but...what was the reason you guys decided to sing about stress?"
"I think we've all been stressed at some point," Amanda commented. "When I caught the cold and missed Phil Collins week I got stressed because I hate missing out on glee club"
"I'm stressed because even though I went to the doctor and they took my cast off, I still have to use crutches," said Danielle. "I never thought that a sprained ankle could affect me so much" some of the New Directions members turned to look at the redhead girl with sadness.
"I think you didn't realize something," intervened Tina. "although the song that the boys sang was about being stressed out, They never took their eyes off Rachel and Olivia, who even got up to dance"
"It's because the song was for Rachel and Olivia," Josh explained. "They were both stressed so Finn, Puck and I taught them how to relax"
"Great job" Will applauded and the others did the same, Marley was silent the whole time and didn't say anything. "Marley, is something wrong?" He looked at the girl with concern. "You haven't said anything in the whole rehearsal"
"I...I'm sorry" Marley confessed. "I was thinking" actually what she was thinking about was the kiss that she shared with Sebastian and neither of them had said anything about it. "I was distracted"
"ooh la la" Santana smirked. "Isn't it because of a certain boy whose name rhymes with Stefan Smile?"
"Actually last week something happened between Marley and me but she hasn't spoken to me since and I want to know what I did wrong" Sebastian explained.
"Wait…did you and Marley kiss?" Jake was shocked.
"Well…we`re not together anymore Jacob; so yes, I made out with Sebastian in the auditorium after we sang that beautiful song by Phil Collins" Marley snapped at Jake. "Is there any problem with that? I`m single now and I can do whatever the hell I want"
"Oh snap!" Artie exclaims, giving a clap.
"You ruined your chances with Marley dude" Finn told him. "so deal with it"
"Screw this…I quit" Jake got up from his seat and left the choir room.
"Great, just when there was no more drama, now we have to find a replacement for Jake" Tina said. "What's his problem? He was the one who cheated on Marley with that obnoxious cheerleader in the first place and now he's playing the victim because now Marley likes Sebastian? it's ridiculous"
"I'll go talk to him" Puck got up from his seat and left the choir room in pursuit of his brother to talk some sense into him.
"If you need one more member, my girlfriend Marissa is interested in joining the glee club," Ryder pointed out. "And if you ask, yes she can sing. The other day I heard her singing Colors of the Wind from Pocahontas and it was a beautiful sound"
"Ryder, we need another guy," Sebastian said. "there are already too many girls n the club"
"Watch it," Mercedes said, annoyed.
"Guys!" Will finally spoke. "now is not the time to fight, we have to focus on regionals and it's too late to recruit new members, it's a shame that Jake decided to quit at the last minute but… sign-up sheets for New Directions are over and there will be no new places until next year"
"This is Jake Puckerman`s fault" Rachel said. "I was there when he cheated on Marley and I witnessed how devastated my best friend was, she loved him and that jerk hurt her. He doesn't deserve her, it's better if he doesn't come back, Puck is a better person than him"
"Hm, preach" Artie raises his hand in agreement. "he always gave me bad feeling"
"Can we please stop talking about my love life?" Marley asks them gently. "I`m fine and honestly I just want to move on" the bell rang suddenly, indicating next class and Will sighs in surrender.
"See you later for rehearsal" Will said. "I have a new assignment that I want to give you" the kids picked up their things and started leaving the choir room in silence.
"Marley…" Sebastian walks behind Marley and softly grabs her arm to stop her. "can we talk?"
Marley immediately stopped and looked at Sebastian, she gave him a shy smile and blushed.
"Hi" Marley greeted. "Sure, follow me" The two walked to Marley's locker where they stopped. "How is everything?"
"I want to know if I did something wrong," confessed Sebastian. "You haven't talked to me since we kissed, I don't know about you but...I thought you and I had a connection"
"Sebastian...I really like you," Marley told him. "And of course I feel the same way too, I've never felt this way for someone, I thought Jake was the one but I was wrong. I'm in love with you..." realizing her, she covered her mouth with her hand. "I... I'm sorry, I don't know why I said that"
"You love me?" Sebastian was surprised, Marley Rose was not only beautiful, she was also sweet, kind and lovely. it was impossible not to fall in love with her.
"I do," Marley confesses. "But I don't think you feel the same and I get it"
"Marley, wait...I didn't say that," Sebastian tried to tell her.
"Listen, I'm not pressuring you to confess" Marley told him. "I can't make you love me, I just... I want to know if the kiss we had was real and we can be more than friends, because otherwise I don't want to get in your way"
"Marley, what are you talking about?" Sebastian was confused. "the kiss was real, but suddenly you ran out and you haven't talked to me until now"
"Sebastian Smythe... do you love me?" Marley asked him, looking him straight in the eye.
"Marley, I…" Sebastian tried to tell her.
"You know what? It's too soon" Marley said sadly. "I shouldn't have told you anything" she turned around and hugged the books to her chest as she walked down the halls.
(Marley walks down the halls sadly thinking that Sebastian doesn´t love her like she does and thinks that he only kissed her out of instinct but not out of love)
[Marley]
I haven't slept at all in days
It's been so long since we've talked
And I have been here many times
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there
(Scene changes to the auditorium where Marley is standing on the stage and pictures Sebastian sitting in the audience and looking at her)
There's only so much I can take
And I just got to let it go
And who knows I might feel better, yeah
If I don't try and I don't hope
What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there
(Marley is sitting in history class staring longingly at Sebastian who is paying attention to )
No more waiting, no more, aching
No more fighting, no more, trying
(Scene goes back to the auditorium where Marley sings and she keeps picturing Sebastian at the audience)
Maybe there's nothing more to say
And in a funny way I'm calm
Because the power is not mine
I'm just going to let it fly
What can I do to make you love me (what can I do to make you love me)
What can I do to make you care (what can I do to make you care)
What can I say to make you feel this (what can I do to make you love me)
What can I do to get you there (what can I do to make you care)
What can I do to make you love me (what can I do to make you love me)
What can I do to make you care (what can I do to make you care)
What can I change to make you feel this (what can I do to make you love me)
What can I do to get you there (what can I do to make you care)
And love me
Love me, love me
Love me, love me
Love me, love me
Love me, love me
Love me, love me
Love me, love me
Marley takes a deep breath, realizes she was alone the whole time, sadly walks off the stage, and leaves the auditorium closing the door behind her after turning out the lights.
Ryder confidently walked towards his girlfriend's locker holding a gorgeous bouquet of daisies hoping to surprise her; both had been dating for months and each time their love was more intense; Marissa turned out to be a sweet, funny and nice girl, and they discovered that they had things in common.
On the other hand, Marissa was putting some books in her locker when he felt a presence behind her.
"Hey beautiful" Ryder said with a smile as he held the bouquet of daisies.
"You're always full of surprises, aren't you?" Marissa laughed, closing her locker and turning to look at him. "Hi babe" she greeted, approaching him and kissing him sweetly on the lips.
"hello" Ryder greeted again. "how did you know?"
"I sensed it," Marissa said, shrugging with a smirk. "but that's one of the things that made me fall in love with you, you're a spontaneous guy"
"And speaking of spontaneous...these are for you" Ryder said, handing her the bouquet.
"Daisies!" Marissa exclaimed happily, taking the flowers and smelling their delicious fragrance. "my favorites, oh my gosh., thank you love, but... you didn't have to"
"You are my girlfriend Marissa Fitzgerald and you deserve the best," said Ryder stroking her long blonde hair. "as I know you love daisies, I wanted to surprise you"
"You're the best boyfriend ever" Marissa wrapped her arms around his neck holding her bouquet of daisies. "Every day I fall more in love with you"
"the feeling's mutual babe" Ryder smiles. "so…are you still considering joining the glee club?"
I'd love to," Marissa said with a smile, then frowned in confusion. "But I thought there weren't any more places in New Directions until next year. The last girl who joined is Danielle, and I know because we both take chemistry class, actually… she is my lab partner "
"Jake quit," Ryder explained. "Apparently he didn't take anything well about Marley dating Sebastian"
"Wait what?" Marissa was shocked. "oh my god, now what's going to happen?"
"I don't know, but…I'll talk to Mr. Schuester about you joining New Directions" Ryder told her. "It will be Jake's decision if he comes back or not, after all he was the one who cheated on Marley in the first place. Besides... I've already heard you sing Mar, your voice is beautiful"
"You think my voice is beautiful?" Marissa asks sweetly.
"Totally, you sing like an angel" Ryder said, offering her hand. "so…what do you say babe?"
"I say…I´m in" Marissa says smiling as she takes his hand, both of them run towards the halls and enter the choir room.
(The band starts playing "Let´s love" by Echosmith, as Ryder and Marissa sing and dance around the choir room, having fun and sharing flirty glances, their voices harmonize perfectly, and Marissa has a beautiful singing voice)
[Marissa]
I'm just a girl from the city
You came to me, like Calvary
And now, all I want is to hold you now
I've been saving my soul for someone like you
[Ryder and Marissa]
So, let's love while we're young
So, let's love before we've even begun
Oh, darling, we'll be fine
So, let's love while we're young
[Ryder]
You were the girl that came with the sunrise
Long, blond hair and ocean eyes
[Ryder and Marissa]
And now, I can't think of a day without you
I've been saving my soul for someone like you
So, let's love while we're young
So, let's love before we've even begun
Oh, darling, we'll be fine
So, let's love while we're young
So, let's love while we're young
So, let's love before we've even begun
Oh, darling, we'll be fine
So, let's love while we're young
As they finished singing, Ryder and Marissa laughed and brought their foreheads together, gazing at each other with adornment.
"That was amazing," Marissa said laughing. "I never thought that singing a duet with the person you love was... magical"
"Whenever you want we can do it again, pretty girl" smiled Ryder. "you just say when"
"it's a date?" Marissa asked, smiling.
"I don't know, maybe" Ryder flirted and they both kissed again sweetly; before sitting down in one of the seats. "Do you remember the first time I brought you to this choir room?"
"How can I forget," Marissa remembered. "You sang that beautiful Elton John song to me and we danced together," she added laughing. "I said you were such a good singer and your arms were so hunky I was literally dying"
"You were wearing your baby blue t-shirt with the pink scarf wrapped around your neck," Ryder remembered. "You looked so cute that day; the t-shirt matched your eyes"
"Stop it" Marissa blushes. "You really know how to make a girl nervous"
"Only with you" Ryder says and nuzzles his nose with her. ""Well, you know" he added. "If you join the glee club, we'll have more duets together, plus you'll make a lot of friends"
calm down boy" Marissa told him. "I'm dying to join the glee club, but I'm not the one who decides, it's Mr. Schuester, I'll see you later, okay?" She slung her flowery bag over her shoulder, approached Ryder and kissed him on the cheek "I love you"
"Yeah, me too," Ryder said with a smile, though he later felt sad that Marissa left.
"Jake, we need to talk" Puck said to his brother, who had entered the gym and was furiously pounding a punching bag. "Is that my face?"
"No, from Sebastian" Jake said furiously without stopping hitting the punching bag. "He thinks he's a big deal because he's a pretty boy, he can sing and he made out with Marley to rub it in my face. as if he had to remind me that I have to deal with too much crap in my life, I hate him!"
"I don't understand why you blame Sebastian when you were the one who cheated on Marley with Bree" Puck told him. "And not once, it was three times. And I know because I caught you guys coming out of the janitor's closet, her adjusting her cheerleading uniform and you putting your shirt back on. Marley is a beautiful, sweet and innocent girl, she really loved you and she didn't deserve such lowliness from you, that wasn't cool at all and that's coming from me"
"Are you crushing on her or something?" Jake was outraged.
"No, I don´t," Puck said. "I´m dating Quinn, plus Marley and Sebastian are sorta dating, so you need to respect that, now stop acting like a little kid crying for his mommy, grow some balls and accept that you were wrong so all of us can move on and you need to come back to glee club"
"I'm sorry Puck, but I can't be in a place where the girl I love is with someone else and I can't be in that same room without feeling like punching Sebastian and his chipmunk face" Jake said. "I'm not going back to the club glee, not now, not ever" he returned to punch the punching back. "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to release my frustration" Puck sighs in surrender.
"Fine, don´t say I didn't warn you" Puck says, sighing in surrender. "Just don't forget one thing, regardless of the decisions you make, you will still be my brother" he left the gym and found himself face to face with Will. "sorry Mr. Schue, I tried"
"Did you talk to Jake?" asked Will looking at his student.
"Yes but he didn't want to listen to me" said Puck. "he's stubborn as a mule, and he won't come back to New Directions, so we'll have to find one last member because otherwise they'll beat us at regionals this year"
"I'm sorry to hear that" said Will sadly. "I was really hoping that Jake would reconsider and come back"
"He won't," Puck said. "My brother already made his decision"
""I understand" said Will. "don't worry, I'm in charge of recruiting the last member, we still have time since the regionals are in two weeks before the summer"
"I hope it's someone who can sing, otherwise we're screwed," Puck said.
"Hey, I got this" Will says with a confident smile patting him on his back and walking away, Puck sighs as she leaves for the football practice.
"Hi RuPaul," Quinn says, walking towards Rachel´s locker and standing behind her. "I see you came back and didn't stay in the school for the rich kids, in the end everyone got sick of you and kicked you out?" she laughed.
"It's nice to see you Quinn," Rachel said, turning to look at her. "I see that you are still the same mean girl as always, and now you not only torment Marley or Olivia, you continue to make my life,a living hell" she crossed her arms. "I don't understand what you want but you won't have Finn. he was already more than clear with you that he is not interested"
"Oh sweetie, Finn Hudson doesn't interest me anymore" Quinn said with a smirk. "The poor guy has no sense of direction in his life, he's a Lima loser and he's so tall he could hit his head hitting a traffic light. besides... he is with you because he feels sorry for you; just think about it man hands, you dressed as a creepy school girl, your nose is ugly as a witch and you are so short as a dwarf. You don't belong here Rachel and you can't blame me for being honest"
"You think you're great because you're the captain of the cheerios, but I assure you that no one will remember you when you leave school" countered Rachel. "you enjoy making life miserable for innocent people because you're envious, we all know that Puck is with you because you give him pleasure and he's not really in love with you, plus...I know what you and Kitty Wilde did at sectionals, sabotaged the New Directions set list and gave it to Aural Intensity to cheat on."
"I have no idea what you're talking about stubbles"" Quinn snarled. "But I would think about it carefully before you open your big mouth, Puck loves me and he's never going to leave me" she was cornering Rachel. "You have no evidence to give me away"
"I witnessed and saw everything," Rachel commented. "Besides, the school has hidden cameras" Quinn's jaw dropped. An outcast girl was challenging her. ""It will only be enough for me to show the video to Figgins for him to suspend you and Kitty and Sue Sylvester to kick you out of cheerleading"
Don't you dare mess with me manhands or I´ll make you sorry," Quinn said. "If you accuse me to the principal and have Sue Sylvester take my cheerleading position away from me? I'll make your life really miserable"
"I'm not afraid of you Quinn" Rachel said. "Think what you want, but I'm going to do the right thing, even if it means you hate me. There are many people who bully like you and want to see others fall, but the weak always become stronger. You were cruel to Marley, you made Olivia's life hell just because she chose to join the glee club instead of being a cheerleader and you have tormented me since middle school because you wanted to seduce my boyfriend, since did he not fall for your trap you continue to torment me, but this ends here"
"I told you not to mess with me," Quinn snarled and pushed Rachel to the ground. "Now prepare to face the consequences Rachel Berry" she snapped her fingers and a group of cheerleaders and the football team surrounded Rachel with slushies in hand. "Guys, this loser needs a refreshing bath" she crossed her arms.
"No Quinn…please don't do this to me" Rachel's eyes filled with tears.
"You should have thought of that before you stupid girl" Quinn said and looked at her sidekicks. "Take care of her guys, I've had enough"
"No! please!" Rachel screams tearfully.
"Enjoy your shower tooths" laughed David Karofsky, throwing a slushie at Rachel's face. Within seconds, all the cheerleaders and players were throwing their slushies at Rachel, drenching her from head to toe. "Now nobody will want an eyesore like you"
Rachel stood up, everyone started making fun of her, including the students in the hallway; thick tears slipped down the girl's cheeks and she ran away in tears.
"Oh my God Rachel '' Olivia was horrorized, she had seen how her friend was slushied and publicly humiliated. "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER FABRAY?!" she snapped at Quinn furiously.``What the hell is wrong with you?! Are you a psychopath or what's wrong with you?! Rachel didn't do anything to you, she never messed with you and you're just looking for ways to make her life miserable. you humiliated me when I didn't want to join the stupid cheerleaders and no way in hell I am going to join, you make fun of Marley´s mom because of her weight and she works in the cafeteria. STOP! You are a bully and disgusting person"
"Oh sweetie, I was doing your friend a favor" Quinn smirks. "she's a loser and no one wants her"
"You´re wrong, Rachel is an amazing person; yes she may be a diva sometimes but that means she´s has more talent in her little finger than in any part of her body" Olivia says confidently.. "and I'd rather aspire to be like her or Marley than someone like you who spends her time ruining people's lives; grow up Fabray, you're not perfect; you are the same devil in person and when Puck finds out about the horrible mistake he made in dating you; you he will leave you for someone who's worth it, while you are stuck in Lima cleaning the toilets, while Rachel is happily married to Finn, having beautiful babies , succeeding on Broadway and living in New York City. Rachel is my friend, no... she is more than that, she is my sister. and you're going to leave her alone"
"Or what will you do Thumbelina?" Quinn mocks. "a pathetic little orphan with wishes for greatness who writes depressing songs because her boyfriend dumped her? now I get it why you and Berry are so alike, you are both losers"
"I don't give a damn what you think of me" Olivia said defiantly. "And if you mess with Rachel, you mess with me" she started to turn around, when she pulled something out from behind her back. "Oh and Quinn…" she smirks and then throws a slushie in her face, Quinn was in shock. "Now you know what it feels like getting slushied"
"YOU LITTLE BITCH!" Quinn roared angrily as she wiped the slushy out of her face. "YOU´RE GOING TO REGRET THIS, YOU AND BERRY WILL LEARN NOT TO MESS WITH QUINN FABRAY!"
"Do me a favor and get lost" Olivia simply says, Quinn makes an angry noise and leaves the hallway, meanwhile everyone else was surprised. "the show is over snoopers; you have nothing to do here" the students left to their respective classes.
An hour later, Rachel was crying as she tried to wipe the milkshake off her face, her clothes a mess, her hair soaking wet, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Rachel…" Olivia told her entering the bathroom and seeing her friend. "I'm so sorry, you didn't deserve this. Quinn Fabray is a witch"
"It's what I am, a failure" Rachel sobbed. "No matter how many times I try, I will never find my place here"
"That's not true," Olivia told her. "You're amazing and you have real friends and people who love you; your dads, Finn, the glee club, your cousin Peyton, Marley, Danielle" she took her hands in hers and stared at her. "and you have me, you will never be alone"
"Sometimes I feel like a doll on a shelf" Rachel sniffles. "I feel so alone and invisible" she looked down and more tears slipped down her cheeks, Olivia sighed, took a toilet paper and carefully dried Rachel.
"I see you" Olivia said softly. "And the others too, you have a special shine and that's why Quinn is envious of you just like the hateful Jenna Castleworth; people like them are not worth it. in Fanny Brice´s words: "Don't let them rain on your parade" Rachel laughs as she wipes her tears.
"You obviously studied Funny girl" Rachel smiled, Olivia shrugged.
"What can I say?" Olivia smiled. "You are my idol and I have to learn about you" she looked carefully at her friend. "Come to think of it, you just mentioned that you feel like a doll on a shelf, Aly & AJ wrote a song about it"
"It´s my favorite song," Rachel says smiling. ""it comes out in the Ice Princess movie in the scene at the beginning where Casey skates in the pond at her house"
"I remember," Olivia smiles. "We watched it the other day when we had the slumber party at Marley's house, now…I know how I can make you feel better; a song always heals a heartache" she takes her hand. "and I know exactly how"
(Scene changes to the auditorium, Rachel and Olivia are sitting in a stools, Olivia plays the guitar softly as she and Rachel share friendly glances and smile at each other softly)
[Olivia]
I am moving through the crowd
Trying to find myself
Feel like a guitar that's never played
Will someone strum away?
[Olivia and Rachel]
And I ask myself
Who do I wanna be?
Do I wanna throw away the key?
and invent a whole new me
and I tell myself
No One, No One
Don't wanna be
No One
But me..
[Rachel]
You are moving through the crowd
Trying to find yourself
Feelin' like a doll left on a shelf
Will someone take you down?
[Rachel and Olivia]
And you ask yourself
Who do I wanna be?
Do I wanna throw away the key?
and invent a whole new me
Gotta tell yourself
No One, No One
Don't wanna be
No One
But me..
Your life plays out on the shadows of the wall
You turn the light on to erase it all
You wonder what it's like to not feel worthless
So open all the blinds and all the curtains
No One, No One
Don't wanna be
No One
But me..
[Rachel]
We are moving through the crowd…
The two girls finished singing, Olivia placed the guitar on its stand, and Rachel stood up to hug Olivia.
"Thank you Liv," Rachel told him with a smile. "that definitely made me feel better"
"Music is good therapy," Olivia reminded her. "When Anthony cheated on me and we broke up, I was able to blow off some steam by writing songs. I know some might find this depressing but..."
"Hey, you're talented," Rachel told her. "I knew from the moment I met you, that's why I felt threatened, you're amazing Olivia and you'll go far, you don't have to be like me or Marley, just yourself. and by the way...the song you wrote with Marley for sectionals...I loved it. You deserve the trophy"
"Now it's different because you're back and we're going to win as a team," Olivia says smiling, wrapping her arm around her shoulders. "Come on, let's go to the cafeteria; Marley's mom baked chocolate muffins and I know how much you love those"
And how do you know that little fortune teller?" Rachel teased. "Wait...let me guess, Finn told you."
"nope" Olivia smiled. "The other day I saw you eating one, that's why"
"You're impossible," Rachel said laughing. "But I still love you, let's go for the muffin" both girls left the auditorium and went to the cafeteria for the chocolate muffin forgetting the bittersweet moment that Quinn Fabray made them go through.
After their first kiss, Josh and Michelle became closer; they were holding hands, flirting or making out; right now they were sitting in the shade of a tree making out; the two of them laughing against each other's lips and Josh stroking Michelle's long hair.
"You're so beautiful" Josh told her lovingly.
"I don't consider myself beautiful but thank you" Michelle said.
"Trust me Mitch, you are the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life," Josh said, kissing her again.
"Josh..." Michelle cut him off. "What are we? friends who kiss and hold hands or are we boyfriend and girlfriend?"
"Michelle, it's clear that you and I are more than friends," Josh clarified. "I love spending time with you, I really really like you; I don't know you but I consider you my girlfriend"
"Oh thank god" Michelle sighs with relief. "I thought you didn't want to date me since you don't like labels"
"I don't know who told you that but I'm not like the rest of the guys out there" Josh told her, taking her hand. "I want to be with you Michelle as your boyfriend; and I'm so lucky to have an amazing girl like you by my side"
"I think the same love" Michelle smiles and when she and Josh lean to kiss…
"¡Hey! What are you kids doing out here?" Shannon Beiste, the female football coach approached them. "shouldn't you be in class or something?"
"Oh my gosh!" Michelle stands up from the grass and wipes the leaves from her dress as she helps Josh to get up.
"We're really sorry coach" Josh apologizes sheepishly as the woman shakes her head with a smile.
"Don't worry kiddo, your secret is safe with me" Shannon said. "I understand that you and your girl are in love, but go to class, I don't want you to get in trouble"
"Yes ma'am; come on Michelle" Josh takes his girlfriend's hand as both teenagers left the garden.
"See you tomorrow guys, we're going to see about The French Revolution" Will said to his students when the history class ended and they were picking their things; he spotted a cute blonde closing her notebook and putting it inside her flowery bag and started to leave the classroom. "Marissa, can I talk to you for a second?"
"Sure Mr. Schue," Marissa said. "Did I fail?"
"No, don't worry," Will reassured her. "You are one of my best students even though dating Ryder could be a distraction, however you are a dedicated and studious girl"
"Oh...that's a relief," Marissa laughed with relief. "I know, Ryder may be my boyfriend but I'm worried about school"
"Speaking of Ryder," Will said. "That's why I want to talk to you; he told me you want to join the glee club"
"Um…yeah, but I thought there was no room until next year," Marissa said, confused.
"Well…" Will told Marissa. "Jake, Puck's brother quit and...we have a spot available if you change your mind, we could use one more voice to win regionals" the blonde girl was shocked but in a good way and a big smile appeared on her beautiful face.
"Oh my god" Marissa smiles. "seriously?"
I'm serious" smiled Will. "I want you to join New Directions"
"Oh my God" Marissa was excited and suddenly she was in shock, the emotion on her face was evident that she even became nervous. "I do not know what to say..."
"Say yes," the teacher commented. "Not all opportunities come easily...at least, that you can't sing" he added jokingly.
"Yeah, I'd love to," Marissa smiles shyly. "and I can sing, I took singing lessons since I was four, and my first cover on youtube was "Love story" by Taylor Swift"
"I´ll see you in the choir room in five minutes" Will said, grabbing his briefcase and leaving the classroom, Marissa smiles as she follows the teacher confidently with a big smile on her face.
Minutes later, everyone was gathered except Mr. Schuester and Jake.
"Where is Mr. Schue?" Mercedes asked.
"The question is…where is Jake?" Ryder wanted to know.
"In case you don't remember, he quit because he was upset that Marley kissed Sebastian," Tina commented.
"I didn't have to react that way," Marley interjected. "me and him are not dating anymore but quitting the glee club is not the solution"
"Marley..." Sebastian told her sitting down next to her. "I don't want things to be awkward between us, I really want to get to know you better and I really like you"
"I don't want things to be awkward between us either, Sebastian," Marley said, taking his hand. "I really enjoy spending time with you"
"Aww, you guys are so cute," Amanda smiled. "and I already have your couple name, Finn...drum roll" Finn jokingly began to play the drums quickly to imitate the drum roll.
"Well? What's the name?" Santana wanted to know. "just please one that isn't ridiculous or i'll puke rainbows"
"Santana stop being snarky for five minutes" Danielle jokingly said.
"Santana it's just being Santana" Artie told the redhead. "that's the way she is" Santana simply smirks.
"okay…here it goes…Sebarley!" Amanda says smiling. "Sebastian plus Marley means Sebarley"
"Oh come on, that sounds like a freaking teddy bear or something" Santana frowns.
"it's not, thank you Amanda I like it" Marley smiles.
"Yeah, sounds cool" Sebastian agrees.
"Just like Rachel and I are Finchel" Finn points out.
"Marissa and I are Rydissa," Ryder adds.
"Okay, okay" Santana raises her hand in surrender. "I get it; Brittany and I have our personal couple name"
"Brittana" everyone said in unison.
"You guys even have a hashtag on twitter" Mike said.
"I just talked to Lord Tubbington and he promised me not to eat Larry," Brittany says. "he's an important bird and without him, Twitter wouldn´t exist"
"Hey Josh, what´s going on between you and Michelle?" Rachel wants to know entering the choir room with Olivia.
"Well, actually it's pretty awesome Rachel, thanks for asking," Josh says smiling and showing his cute dimples. "except the part where Coach Beiste caught us almost kissing"
"Right people at the wrong time," commented Olivia.
"oooh" the girls squeals.
"whoa, whoa…hold on a second" Mike interrupted the girls. "you're dating my sister and I didn't know?"
"Mike…" Tina scolds her boyfriend. "you can't protect your sister forever, You knew sooner or later this was going to happen, and Josh is a good guy"
"I know but I´m not ready, '' Mike protests. "she's just a baby"
"Dude, Michelle is fourteen years-old" Finn shook his head with a smile. "It's not like she went to preschool and became Josh's girlfriend at age four"
"It's called being a protective brother Finn" Kurt told him. "and you know it yourself because you behave like that with me too, when I told you the other day that I met a nice guy at the music store, you started questioning me"
"I'm just making sure he's a good guy and treats you right," Finn told him.
Oh my God, Kurt you didn't tell us that." Mercedes was excited. "What's his name?"
"Blaine Anderson" Kurt said. "he studies at Dalton Academy and is in a choir where everyone sings acapella, it's called "The Warblers"
"He sounds like a nice catch," Marley points out. "I hope one day we can meet him"
"Sorry guys" Will said entering the choir room with a cute blonde girl, that Marley and Ryder recognized her. "I just finished I just finished history class and we have a new member of New Directions...Marissa Fitzgerald"
"I'm so excited to be here," Marissa said smiling. "I hope to meet you all"
"Another blonde?" Puck said surprised. "this is not barbie club"
"What is the problem?" Olivia wanted to know. "There are already two blonde girls in the glee club; Amanda and Brittany"
"Hey beautiful" Ryder quickly got up from his seat and ran to hug his girlfriend, spinning her in the process as she giggled. "I'm so glad you made it"
"Ryder, I know you´re excited that Marissa is here but please control yourself, okay?" Will told him.
"Sorry, I'll behave, '' Ryder sheepishly says and returns to his seat. Sebastian turned to look at Marley and he noticed that she looked at Marissa with a smile; in response Marissa greeted her and smiled at her too.
"Doesn't it bother you anymore?" Sebastian asked Marley. "I saw that you no longer feel sad and uncomfortable to see Marissa"
"I already accepted that she and Ryder love each other," commented Marley. "they deserve to be happy and Marissa is very sweet and makes him happy. besides... I already found what I was looking for"
"I know, me too." Sebastian smiled and leaned down to kiss her cheek.
"Can this blonde even sing?" Santana said.
"Um…yes of course" Marissa shyly says. "actually…I can sing something" she looks at WIll. "if it's that okay" Marley found another coincidence in Marissa, she was acting shy and Marley remembered that she was the same when she first joined the glee club.
"The floor is yours" Will said as he took a seat.
"I'm going to sing "I'm like a bird" by Nelly Furtado" Marissa announces, looking at her new teammates and her teacher.
"Oh my God, my favorite song from Nelly!" Rachel smiles excitedly.
(The band starts playing "I´m like a bird", Marissa looks straight ahead and sings, New Directions are amazed with her singing voice, it was melodious and beautiful)
[Marissa]
You're beautiful, that's for sure
You'll never, ever fade
You're lovely, but it's not for sure
That I won't ever change
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true
I'm like a bird, I only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
And baby, all I need for you to know is
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
All I need for you to know is
(Marley starts singing from her seat feeling inspired, then the scene changes where Marley is at her locker and witnessing Sebastian talking with Finn, Ryder and Puck in the hallway, Marley stares longingly at Sebastian)
[Marley]
Your faith in me brings me to tears
Even after all these years end
And it pains me so much to tell that you don't know me that well
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
And baby, all I need for you to know is
(Scene returns to the choir room where Marissa continues singing auditioning for glee club, everyone is fascinated with her voice as Will nods in approval, Scene switches to Marley looking lovingly at Sebastian once again, this time he smiles back at her)
[Marissa (Marley)]
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away (fly away)
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
And baby, all I need for you to know is
[Marley]
It's not that I wanna' say goodbye
It's just that every time you try
To tell me, me that you love me, oh
[Marissa]
Each and every single day
I know I'm going to have to eventually give you away
And though my love is rare, rare, rare
And though my love is true, yeah
I'm just scared that we may fall through
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
(Marissa continues singing with confidence, Marley looks at Sebastian as she sings to him, he smiles at her and both return to look at Marissa who is singing)
