A/N: I do not own anything besides Amelia St. James and any other original character. If I did own glee, it would be St. Berry all the time and sometimes better expression what teenagers actually listen to these days.
Turns out that Coach Sylvester had caught Jacob Ben Israel in the computer lab just moments ago with it locked and the lights turned off, he was naked and looking at a picture of Rachel had taken. Talk about creepy. Glee was dismissed after Mr. Schue returned, well we weren't really dismissed it's just that Mr. Schue had forgotten his lesson plan. The rest of the day was boring, glee after was canceled because of dentist appointments, seriously how many more of us are gonna have dentist appointments, why don't have a number for tomorrow.
~Time Skip~
Friday came faster than usual and Finn and Artie were late to glee practice this morning. Coach Beiste had let Finn rejoin the football team and Artie got to join. "I was pretty sure Artie's legs don't work," Quinn states. "Did you get a leg transplant?" Brittany asked Artie. "Nope, my teammates can push my chair like a battering ram," Artie explains which was actually really cool. "Yep. There's no rules against it. We checked," Finn finished. "And I have Britney Spears to thank," Artie announces.
"You're welcome," Brittany tells him. It was actually quite cute how she said it but Santana just gave her a look like something was off. "Britney plus nitrous gave me an amazing idea. And it gave me the nerve to tell Coach Beiste that Finn and I really want to be on the team," Artie further explained. "Wait, you're back on the football team?" Rachel asks, she didn't sound real happy about it but that's none of my business. "Yeah," Finn confirms for her. "Suddenly, you're way hotter me. Weird," Santana says kinda flirty might I add. "Wait, I don't get it. How come everyone's having Britney Spears fantasies?" Puck asks.
"The nitrous oxide dentists use is a mild hallucinogen," I explain. "Studies have proven that it induces vivid dreams, often the last thing the patient thinks of. The subconscious move to the forefront. Since we've all been thinking so much about Britney, it only stands to reasons," Artie finishes for me, providing the needed facts to prove. While Artie was explaining, Mr. Schue walked into the glee room.
"Okay, guys. Listen up," Mr. Schue calls out. Kurt raises his hand before Mr. Schue could say anything else. "Mr. Schue, if I may-" "Kurt I overheard what you guys were just talking about, and I know what you're gonna say. The answer is no….no, I'm not gonna stand in the way anymore. If you guys want to do Britney at this year's homecoming assembly, I'm fine with it," Mr. Schue states, I didn't think he would change mind.
Everybody started cheering after that but then Mr. Schue started speaking again. "And, more than that I am going to perform with you," He finishes. "Mr. Schue isn't that a little weird," I ask. "Maybe, but numbers are uneven still, we have more girls than boys and if I perform with you, that makes it closer to being even," he explains. "Why can't we just have two girls dance with each other?" I question. He didn't say anything after that, guess he didn't know what to say.
The topic ended up being changed to what song we were gonna sing. Even though I still don't like Britney after my weird dream at the dentist I had a little more respect for her. Once a song was decided, we all left to get to class. We would meet up again after lunch and we were excused from class all the way up to the assembly in order to rehearse for it.
Sometime during lunch, changed back into her normal everyday Rachel Berry clothes, though this time it wasn't an animal sweater and plaid skirt, it was a simple blue dress with white polka dots. She looked a little upset when I saw her, she was my friend. When she and Jesse broke up and then she started spending her time with Finn, we drift apart. But I still wanted to make sure she was okay. "Rachel, what's wrong?" I ask her. "I think I made a stupid mistake," She states. "What was it?" "I told Finn to choose between me and football," she explains. "Think of it this way, and I don't want to sound mean okay. But if Finn's on the football, you have more protection from slushies than you would if he wasn't. Plus, football makes him happy as well. You asking him this, would be like him asking you to choose between glee or him," I explain to her. "You're right, I'll talk to him later then, thanks, Amelia. I'm gonna hug you now," She states. She hugs me and then both head to glee.
After about two hours of rehearsal and quickly throwing costumes together, we start setting for the assembly. We were gonna perform Toxic by Britney Spears. Mr. Schue was talking to Miss Pillsbury when the buzzer for us to get ready to get on stage went, it sounded just like VA's buzzer and the one from Regionals. Principal Figgins starts talking and Mr. Schue quickly joins us than the music starts. Brittany took the lead on this song with Rachel, Mr. Schue and the rest of the club backing her up. I will admit though some of our moves were not exactly school appropriate and if my dance teacher was here, I would be smacked on the back for doing them.
Halfway through the song, the crowd started going crazy. It was like a mini-riot, it was entertaining and a little weird at the same time. At the very end, Coach Sylvester pulled the fire alarm and everybody was swarming out of the gym. It was really really crazy. Even though everybody left the gym we still had to put everything away after that. We still had glee club after school. I was heading to my locker when I saw Quinn flirting with Finn, then she went to Rachel. Something was up with those two but when Quinn walked away from her, Rachel looked happy.
"Alright," Mr. Schue says as he enters the choir room. We were all changed out of our Britney costumes and back into our normal ones. "Rachel?" He asks seeing that she has her hand up. "I have a song that I prepared for the class," She states. "Sorry, Rachel. No Britney. I'm really happy that her music has inspired so many of you even if that inspiration was brought about by a dangerous narcotic. And I think we've all come to appreciate her music and celebrity so much more this week. But, honestly, she's just not us," Mr. Schue explains. "I am devastated. I can't believe we only did one Britney number," Kurt mumbles in his little back corner.
"I was actually gonna do something from our original assignment this week, adult contemporary but this is just a little bit more young adult," Rachel announces. "Oh, great Rachel. Well, let's hear it," Mr. Schue tells her. "I'd like to dedicate this song to my boyfriend. Finn, I was wrong. I shouldn't try to control you. I've just, I've never been this happy before and I realize that I was trying to hold on to how you were making me feel so much that I was strangling you in my hand like a little bird. I get now that, in order for this relationship to work I have to open up my hands and let you fly free," Rachel says to him and the class. "Finn can fly?" Brittany asks shocked. "Really?" Kurt questions her. "Wait, I thought I was the only one getting solos from on. Next week I'm going to be performing a musical number by Kesha," Brittany states. Brittany got shushed after that and then the music started for Rachel's song.
It was The Only Exception by Paramore. It was a lovely song and the song itself has so much meaning in it. Rachel did a good job on it and a good job voicing how she feels. Glee club that day didn't last much longer, we all wanted to have the weekend and then come back after that. We were dismissed early and found ourselves back in our own homes. I set up a time to skype with Jesse and arranged for Nick and Jeff to stay Saturday night.
A/N: Next chapter will be the start of Grilled Cheesus. See you next Saturday.
