-Chapter 70-Asking and Lucy-
-Santana pov-
I'm wheeling around the library to put away books. I am glad honestly to be back in school. It's only a week but still. I've honestly missed the library here. It's calming.
Alex on the other hand...she's just stared at the door. We all know she blames herself some. If she had unlocked it though that kid and more would be dead. The man knew where to look.
I sigh and continue to put the books up. I smile when I see Angela and Dotty studying. Those two have had a hell of a year. I hear someone walking toward me and turn.
"Hey" I wave at Cherry "So could I talk with you in private?"
I nod and lead her to a side room "What's going on?" She closes the door and turns to me "Cherry?"
"I'm going insane!" She looks out the window "I mean they both look so lovely! But they wouldn't go for me!"
"Ohhhh" I wheel closer to her "You want to date Angela and Dotty?"
"Yeah" Cherry sighs "Why would they date me though?"
"Cause you're great" We jump and turn to see Rachel hiding beside a cabinet "I let the girlfriends talk me into hide and seek"
"Quinn is playing hide and seek?" Rachel nods "She hasn't done that since..since Lucy"
"Is that who Brittany was talking about?" I look at exhale confused "She kept saying Lucy and Quinn would respond"
"My girl is going back to Lucy" I smile "Thats so sweet"
"As cute as this is" I look back at Cherry "Can I get help?"
"I think you should sing to them" Rachel steps out from her spot "A big heartfelt gesture would work!"
"I hate to agree but yeah" Rachel glares at me "Oh bugger off"
"FOUND YOU!" We all jump as Brittany puts her face to the glass "Now we gotta find Lucy!"
Rachel sighs and walks out of the room. I look at Cherry who still looks nervous. This is going to be a hard one. Think...think...got it!
"I know a great song" Cherrys eyes fill with hope "Let's go to the room and practice it!"
Cherry nods and we quickly leave the room. I tell Alex where I'm going and she nods. We leave the library and head to the Blazers room. Time to get Cherry her two girls!
-Time skip-Rachel pov-
"Alright" I look at Qu-Lucy "To be a good girl you need to stop with the demeaning looks and comments! They won't get you anywhere"
"Everyone one you do do" Brittany zaps Lucy with a taser "I'll zap ya!"
"Uhhh" Lucy looks at me and I shrug "Are we sure this isn't a dumb idea? I mean come on! Rachel's nice and she's a hobbit!"
I grab the taser form Brittany and zap Lucy "I'M NOT A HOBBIT!" I hand the taser to Brittany "I was going to be kind but now I'm going to let her do this"
Lucy points and I just go on. We spend about a hour on being nice. Lucy only gets tased about 15 times. She finally shows progress that she'll behave better. Not enough to change just be better to people.
I get Brittany to put the taser away now. Lucy wants to dress in dresses and argyle. This is where I come in. I bring out the clothes and she looks through. She actually happily selects some clothes.
Once the outfits are done Brittany pulls out her phone. I pull out a book and Lucy looks at us confused. I point to the name of it and she sighs. She's apologizing to everyone she's hurt.
This will be a while.
-Time skip-Santana pov-
It time for glee and I have Cherry all set up. As everyone comes in they sit down confused. I have the chairs labeled. There's two in front of Cherry. They have Dotty and Angela's name.
When the two come in I quickly turn to the piano. It's time to go.
-Cherry singing-
I can't fight this feeling any longer
And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow
What started out as friendship, has grown stronger
I only wish I had the strength to let it show
I tell myself that I can't hold out forever
I said there is no reason for my fear
Cause I feel so secure when we're together
You give my life direction
You make everything so clear
And even as I wander
I'm keeping you in sight
You're a candle in the window
On a cold, dark winter's night
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might
And I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
It's time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever
Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crashing through your door
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore
My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you
I've been running round in circles in my mind
And it always seems that I'm following you, girl
Cause you take me to the places that alone I'd never find
And even as I wander I'm keeping you in sight
You're a candle in the window on a cold, dark winter's night
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might
And I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
It's time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever
Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crashing through your door
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore
Everyone claps and I watch the scene unfold. The two girls are clapping and Cherry looks nervous. I look up at her and smile. I give her a thumbs up and she nods.
"Dotty and Angela" The clapping slowly stops "I've been...been friends with you to for years now...and I'd never want anything to break you two apart! You two have a love that only certain people ever get! And...and I wanna be you third i-if you'd both let me..I'll pay for the date and everything! I-I just really wanna be with you two!"
"Friday's are a good nights for a date" Angela looks at Dotty "Right?"
"Absolutely" Dotty turns her head toward Cherry "Can you get our date ready by Friday?"
"Yes!" Everyone cheers as the girls hug "I'm so happy you're letting me do this!"
"H-hey Santana" I turn and my jaw drops "Yo-you luck lovely today"
"You're in argyle" Quinn nods and looks down "So is this Lucy coming back?"
"I've been tossing it around and the girl helped" She starts to fidget with her skirt "Is it ok?"
"You look beautiful" I grab her hands "Absolutely beautiful"
She smiles at me and I pull her into my lap. I look at Rachel and Brittany. They smile and I give a them one back. This is nice.
"So I'm thinking about a date" I look at Lucy "Maybe a ice cream place or something?"
"That sounds lovely" I give her a big kiss "Absolutely lovely"
She smiles and lays her head on my shoulder. This could be what makes everything good. Maybe everything starts to go forward here. So I hope.
-Shelby pov-
I'm watching with the moms in the office. The clubs such a great club. I stand up and walk out to head to the room. I stop and look in the library. Inside Alex is sitting at her desk.
I open the door and slowly walk up. She seems to be asleep. I reach the desk and see she's asleep. There's a drawing on the desk. I slowly pull it out to avoid waking her up.
I frown when I look at it. There's a boy in front of doors. The library doors. I look back down at Alex. Maribel comes out of the hospital tomorrow. I'm hoping we can get her better soon.
I really wanna get her back to ok. But how can I help her after what she's been through? I need to look up and study. I put the paper on the desk and walk out.
I'm going to figure all of this out.
