CHAPTER 7

KRYSTAL'S POV

I walked down the halls of McKinley High School for the last time. In two days is regionals, then Matt and I'll be walking across the stage to be graduated. We won't go to NY straight away, but we already have an apartment around the corner to NYU. I opened my locker and started getting my stuff from my locker to chuck expect the pictures of everyone in the glee club and myself. I put the photos in a envelope, and put it in my bag. The rest of the stuff can be chucked.

"I don't want you to go" I jumped a little bit and turned around to see Santana and Brittany.

"Oh Britt" I pulled her into my arms.

"Please don't go, San may not show it but she'll miss you to" Brittany told me.

"Britt, I have to go. I'm graduating, so will you in 3 years from now. I love you Britt an no-one can every replace you or anyone in the glee club us my best friend/sisters" I told her.

"Your still coming to Regionals right?" Santana asked me.

"Of course I am. I wouldn't miss it for the world" I told her. Santana took my junk and tossed it, I closed the locker and linked arms with Britt and Santana. We walked into Glee and then I got attacked with hugs from Mike and Puck.

"My god guys. Really?" I hugged them back.

"We don't want you to go" Mike whispered to me.

"Damn straight" Puck said.

"And if any guy treats your badly, call me up and I'll go all ninja on the guys' ass" Mike told me.

"I have to guys. I've already gotten accepted into NYU, but I'll be back trust me, and I'm pretty sure Matt would get to the guy first" I told them.

"You may have been here for just over 3 months, but you were always meant to be a apart of New Directions" Rachel told me.

"Aww thanks Rach" I hugged her.

"Kurt get your fashionesta butt down here and give me a hug" I told him, he walked over to me and gave me a hug.

"Tell me all about the fashion in New York okay" Kurt told me.

"Will do" I told him.

"And me to" Mercedes told me.

"I'll tell Kurt to tell you okay" I smiled at her.

"What about us?" Artie asked me.

"I'll see if any film schools are any good over there" I told Arite.

"Thank you"

"I don't know what I would of done if you didn't give me the confidence to stop my fake stuttering" Tina said.

"Well, what can I say. I'm just that awesome" I flipped my hair. Everyone started laughing then Matt walked in, he looked at everyone confused.

"What's going on?" Matt asked everyone. Aww poor Matt.

"Don't worry about it Matt" I told him, Matt sat next to me as Santana sat on the other side of me.

"Alright you guys. Since this is out last week with Krystal and Matt, Krystal and Matt can choose the topic this week" Mr. Schue told everyone.

"Emotion" I said once I got the okay from Matt.

"Emotion in general?" Mr. Schue asked. I nodded my head.

"Okay, does anyone have a song straight off the top of they're heads?" Mr. Schue asked us all. I put my hand up.

"Okay Krystal, up you come" Mr. Schue said and sat down on a chair off to the side.

You are not your makeup,
Not your clothes,
An anonymous face.
No one knows,
You're not a skin colour,
A pretty face,
The number of inches around your waist.
There's so much in your head
That nobody knows,
So many things you never show.

You're more than labels,
More than pain,
Baby you're more than your mistakes.
And you got something, to say.
Ohhhhhhh woahhhhhh

When will you realize, baby you're worth it,
Don't have to do anything to earn it.
Baby you're perfect,
You deserve it,
When will you see what I see,
And realize you're worth it.

You are not a burden,
Not a waste,
You're not a copy,
Can't be replaced.
You're not your pain,
Not your past,
Scars will never hold you back.
There's so much you've been through that nobody knows,
So many things you never show.

You're more than labels,
More than pain,
Baby you're more than your mistakes.
And you got something, to say.
Ohhhhhhh woahhhhhh

When will you realize, baby you're worth it,
Don't have to do anything to earn it.
Baby you're perfect,
You deserve it,
When will you see what I see,
And realize you're worth it.

You're worth it, baby you're worth it. x7

You're worth it.

You're more than labels,
More than pain,
Baby you're more than your mistakes.
And you got something, to say.
Ohhhhhhh woahhhhhh

When will you realize, baby you're worth it,
Don't have to do anything to earn it.
Baby you're perfect,
You deserve it,
When will you see what I see,
And realize you're worth it.

You're worth it, baby you're worth it. x7

You're worth it.

I looked around and saw the girls and Kurt with tears in their eyes and the guys pretending they're not crying.

"I don't know what to say Krystal. You seem to always blow everyone away" Mr. Schue said.

"I don't mean to. Really I don't" I told them. I sat back down and Matt wrapped his arms around me and kissed the side of my head.

"Anyone else" Mr. Schue asked. Rachel slowly put her hand up.

"Okay Rachel" Mr. Schue said. Rachel walked up and sat on the stall.

This is a story that I have never told
I gotta get this off my chest to let it go
I need to take back the light inside you stole
You're a criminal
And you steal like you're a pro

All the pain and the truth
I wear like a battle wound
So ashamed, so confused
I was broken and bruised

Now I'm a warrior
Now I've got thicker skin
I'm a warrior
I'm stronger than I've ever been
And my armour, is made of steel, you can't get in
I'm a warrior
And you can never hurt me again

Out of the ashes, I'm burning like a fire
You can save your apologies, you're nothing but a liar
I've got shame, I've got scars
That I will never show
I'm a survivor
In more ways than you know

'Cause all the pain and the truth
I wear like a battle wound
So ashamed, so confused
I'm not broken or bruised

'Cause now I'm a warrior
Now I've got thicker skin
I'm a warrior
I'm stronger than I've ever been
And my armour, is made of steel, you can't get in
I'm a warrior
And you can never hurt me

There's a part of me I can't get back
A little girl grew up too fast
All it took was once, I'll never be the same
Now I'm taking back my life today
Nothing left that you can say
'Cause you were never gonna take the blame anyway

Now I'm a warrior
I've got thicker skin
I'm a warrior
I'm stronger than I've ever been
And my armour, is made of steel, you can't get in
I'm a warrior
And you can never hurt me again

No oh yeah yeah

You can never hurt me again

Wow that was powerful. I wonder what happened to her, I looked over Rachel and saw she has faint lines. When Glee was over.

"Rach, can I talk to you for a moment?" I asked her.

"Sure, what's up?" Rachel asked me. I pulled her into bathroom, I pointed to her wrists.

"I guess you want to know why I did that" Rachel said. I nodded my head.

"I started when I was 10 years old. That's when my daddy's started going away for months on end, I started getting bullied and I changed my style. Everyone in glee knows me as this diva that wants to be on Broadway, but that's not me. At my old school I was cheerleader, on the dance team and popular" Rachel told me.

"Then why did you change here? Why didn't you stay the same Rachel as before?" I asked her.

"I don't really know. I really do want to change back, but I don't want my good clothes to get ruined" She told me.

"And my lovely, I'll help you out" I wrapped my arms around her.

"Thanks Krystal, you're the best" Rachel said.

"No problem" I said.
