-Chapter 91-Prom to Remember-
-Santana pov-
It's been almost a month since Shelby left. The people in charge of nationals still think we are going. But I'm not any closer to getting the group together. Hell I'm not even closer to getting my relationship back together.
I'm single and have to see her everyday. Everybody has been dealing with shit this past month. I haven't had time to finally just get everyone together. I've just been thinking of plan after plan.
The moms have been helping me out. The girls won't talk to me. It doesn't help we had a small falling out. I just was exhausted and they wouldn't stop asking questions.
Now they are going to prom together tonight. I don't even have a dress picked out. They all have everything picked out and ready. I guess I'm home alone.
I wheel myself to the office and look at the newest plans. I stop when I see the prom plans. Everything is marked off minus...oh shit. They didn't hire a DJ.
I look at the time and start to wheel out the front door. Maybe they haven't left yet! They could sti...they are gone. This will just add onto all of their issues and depression.
"What are you up to?" I turn and see a confused Fran holding Beth "You ok?"
"They didn't hire a DJ" Frans eyes go wide "Yeah! So now everything is going to go bad for them!"
"No it won't" Fran starts walking away and I follow "Youre getting a dress on and we are getting your club together"
"How did yo~"
"I'm nosey" She turns and smiles at me "I read the notes I'm not supposed to...hope you've gotten that rash taken care of"
I glare at her and she chuckles. She walks to her room and I look at the time. We have to do this. I can't let this fall back on them. They'll be crushed.
-Time skip-Judy pov-
"I knew we forgot something" I look up at the empty stage minus band equipment "This is the worst prom ever"
"Actually this is the best prom ever" Blaine smiles wide "We've never really had a big get together like this! Is this how it usually is?"
"No there's usually music" Maribel sighs "I failed"
"Hello everyone!" We all look up at the stage to see Beth in a bouncy seat, Fran on drums, and Santana with a microphone "Sorry the entertainment is late"
-Santana singing-
Come as you are, as you were
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend
As a known enemy
Take your time, hurry up
Choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend
As an old
Memoria, memoria
Memoria, memoria
Come doused in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend
As an old
Memoria, memoria
Memoria, memoria
When I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
Memoria, memoria
Memoria, memoria
(And I don't have a gun)
When I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
Memoria, memoria
The kids cheer and I see the seated ones stand up. It's saved! The prom has been saved! I watch Blaine walk up to the stage and talk with Santana. Soon he has the mic.
"Alright" he smiles as Santana picks up a guitar "I'm going to bring this one in real smooth! It's a classic that you all can dance with!"

I smile as all of the kids cheer. They are having fun. They think this is a blast! I look up at the stage and give them thumbs up.
"They really saved us huh?" I look over at Maribel and nod. I look at her confused when her eyes go wide "Look"
I turn and see the club members getting up minus the girls. I look around and see them at a table. I walk over to them and they don't notice. They just keep looking at the stage.
"You know you could go up there" The girls look at me and then the stage "She's been trying to get the club back together...it's what we have been spending all of our time doing..she didn't sleep for five days when she snapped"
"Five days?" I nod and Lucy looks at me surprised "Are you serious?"
"She's not been sleeping well without you either" I look at the other two "She's not been sleeping well without any of you"
"Even me?" I turn and see Angela "I know we weren't close"
"She's missed all of you" I put a hand on her shoulder "Shelby asked her to bring the group back for her at nationals"
"She told it to me too" Rachel looks at the ground "I...I didn't wanna believe she was really leaving"
"She'll be back" I crouch down and cup Rachel's face "She'll be back for you princess"
Rachel hugs me as her body shakes. I look up at Lucy and see her standing up. I watch with a smile as she goes toward the stage. Here it goes.
-Santana pov-
"I'm going to slow it down for you all" Dotty smiles "So grab a partner!"
I smile and wheel off the stage slowly. I start to head to the moms but stop. I look up at the hand that's out. I see a teary eyed Lucy.
"May I have this dance?" I look down at my chair "I'm strong enough"
I grab her hand and she supports me. Soon I'm against her as we sway. I'm standing...I haven't done this in forever it feels. I love this so much.
-Dotty singing-
Will you count me in?
I've been awake for a while now
You've got me feelin' like a child now
'Cause every time I see your bubbly face
I get the tingles in a silly place
"I know you've been under stress lately" I look at Lucy and she smiles "But look! The club is the happiest they've ever been!"
I look and see them smiling.
It starts in my toes
And I crinkle my nose
Wherever it goes
I always know
That you make me smile
Please stay for a while now
Just take your time
Wherever you go
"You have no idea how much seeing this means to me" I look into her eyes "I'm sorry for snapping"
"I'm sorry for not noticing" She gives me a quick peck "I love you"
The rain is falling on my window pane
But we are hiding in a safer place
Under covers staying dry and warm
Everyone claps and Lucy turns me around. She holds me up and I feel so safe and loved. Dotty tells Fran to fill in with instrumental. I guess since Fran just starts drumming songs.
Soon the club is walking towards me "So" Cherry looks at me with a smile "When can we get our blazers back captain?"
"Really?" They nod and I smile "Tomorrow and we use the duets of Kurt and Blaine with Cherry and Dotty! We'll figure out group ok?"
They nod and go back to partying. I smile as Lucy pecks my cheek. Tonight has gone perfectly. I can't believe the club is back. We don't have much time to practice though.
"You're standing" I turn and see my mom with tears flowing "I..I never thought I'd see this sight again"
"I wanna try the brace legs" Mom smiles wide "I may not be able to dance and walk right but...but I wanna try and help other people like this"
"I'll make the call tomorrow" Mom sniffles and smiles "I love you Mija"
"I love you Mami" I turn toward Lucy "I love you Luce"
-Judy pov-
"So this is where you've been hiding?" Alex turns and nods "Why the back corner?"
"She was supposed to be my first dance tonight" I see the puffy eyes when the light hits her right "Now I don't know if she's coming back"
"I'm scared she won't come back either" Alex looks at me surprised "I've been hiding it for the girls so much...I just want her to be back already"
"We are allowed to be weak Judy" she hugs me tightly "I love you"
"I love you Alex" I gives her a forehead kiss "Why don't we dance some?"
She nods and we head to the dance floor. We haven't heard a update from anyone about Shelby yet. We tell the girls she's doing great and she loves them though. I just hope that it's true.
It's all I can do.
-??? Pov-
"The tests aren't looking good" I look at my clipboard "It's pull off or just let her ride"
"We promised" My partner walks into the room "She won't die on us"
I smile and nod. We'll get you back to your family. Even if it's the last procedure we ever do. Our licenses don't matter right now.
Just you living Shelby.
