Last Kiss Starlet.
A/N: I hope you liked the prologue... well I don't own Glee and I don't think that Austin Winkler has a son named James, but then again I could dream of owning glee and James is a pretty awesome dude, and he would obviously like a dad like Austin, then again who wouldn't?
Chapter one: Time after Time
I looked at the crowd, they were the ones that were there for me for the last few years, ones who picked me up when I was in the depths of hell. I smiled as I heard them cheer.
"Hello everyone!" I yelled.
They were all cheering my name, I swear I was living the dream.
...
During the concert I sung Fifteen, Hey Stephan, Dancing With Tears in my eyes, Mine, and the song that was inspired years ago when the break up happened – Last Kiss. Well all my songs on the last two albums were inspired by Noah or Alexander, the rebound guy, but it didn't last like Noah. None of the 'relationships' after him never lasted. God I feel like Joe Jonas when it comes to relationships.
"Miss Berry, you have two fans at the door that says he knows you." a British accent from the other side of the door, his name is Curtis, he's one of my body guards.
"What's the names?"
A long pause came from the other side. When he spoke again I swear I wanted to say I didn't know him. "Well their Noah Puckerman and Santana Lopez."
I closed my eyes. I had to face them sooner or later. "Send them in Curtis, and Curtis we need to speak bout something after."
"Yes ma'am." he said before letting in a brown hair Latina with a side ponytail, wearing a pink cocktail dress. And the male had a mohawk and wore a wife beater under a leather jacket with a pair of baggy jeans that had a tear near the knee.
"Why are you guys here?" I barely whispered.
"We came to see you again," the Latina said cheerfully.
"Really? Have either of you wanted contact with me til now? Or did I have to keep hearing updates from Matty and Mike or the Inns?" I said hurtfully. "No, no you haven't."
"I'm sorry," Satan said.
I didn't look up at them, but I could tell their faces had been distraught.
His voice wasn't the cheerful voice that had been in my head for the years I had been wishing he were mine again, no it was replaced with a cold voice that made you think he was the next Sweeney Todd. "Have you tried to make contact?"
I stood up and bellowed at him. "YES I HAVE, YET YOU HANG UP ON ME PUCK! I CALLED AND CALLED FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR TRYING TO TALK WITH YOU, THEN WHEN I FINALLY GIVE UP, HERE YOU ARE STANDING HERE WITH THIS SLUT!"
"Excuse me?" Satan spoke up. "How am I a slut?"
"Oh let's see, with what Matt, Quinn, Finn, and Mike had said about sleeping with the jocks, it all added up to you becoming one," I said with pure hatred. "You know I never thought I'd see the day that you pick up my mess." I looked at Noah.
They both looked hurt, but I could care less about them right now. Yeah, I get this out of character for me, but I'm done being the one who has to be the broken one. I'm tired of moping about.
"I got to head out, so I'll just show you the door."
We walked in utter silence until Curtis opened the door. "Miss Berry, I heard some yelling, anything wrong."
A weak smile crawled upon my face. "Everything's fine, just my lack of judgement has gone out the roof." I sighed then turned to the traitors. "Tell Mike I still hope he's up for me beating his lazy butt in COD."
Without another word, Curtis took me to my limo. Little did I know I may not ever see their faces again...
...
"Miss Berry," A smug smile came upon a broad, dark, and handsome guy that had the greenest eyes, looked about seventeen, and brown hair that was to his chin.
"Um, why are you in my limo?"
Darkness came through me like it covers the world over a day.
...
Noah's POV (next day)
...
'We told to about last night that the singer song writer Rachel Barbra Berry's concert was in Berry's Hometown, Lima, but we got reports early this morning that her bodyguard and everyone close to the teen pop sensation had gone missing after her body guard placed her in t-'
"Rachel!" I screamed at the television.
Santana came in the room wearing her Cheerios uniform. "I got a call from her parents, they haven't found her..." she said warily.
I nodded there was a knock on the door. It sounded urgent so I got up and ran down the steps.
I was greeted with a punch by Finn and Mike.
"What the fuck man?" I bellowed.
They looked as if I were an alien. "We always punch each other lately, you said it would make us even for every girl you stole." Finn said casually.
"I AM NOT IN THE MOOD HUDSON! MY GIRL IS MISSING!"
"You're still saying that girl is yours after what she said to us last night?" Satan spoke with hatred.
"Berry's missing?" Asian one asked.
"YES, do you not watch the news?"
"Haven't seen News, have you seen him around?" a blonde female emerged from behind them.
Brittany, is what you would expect a stereotypical blonde cheerleader would be like, only I think she's a bit more smarter then most... and I underline a bit.
"Honey, he means the people who talk about everything but Mr Huggington." San said calmly.
"Oh," Brittany said.
Days went on and everyone acted like nothing went wrong, I was bullying people since I couldn't beat the shit out of the guys that took Rae away from me and the world. There still is no lead on the where bouts of her. In glee, we were having a rock or country themed week, I was going to do something from Kiss or similar, but now it's something from My Darkest Days and Three Days Grace put together.
"Puck, it's you're turn up here." Schue said.
I nodded and headed up. "I know I usually do music by my fellow Jews, but I thought this week that I would sing two songs from two bands from Canada..." I said awkwardly.
I took the electric guitar from Sarah from the instrumental part of glee and Rae's best friend from childhood. She weakly said. "Rae would have loved to see this. Good luck."
I strummed a few lines of the song before beginning to sing.
I look to sky but there's nobody's watching
left behind I'm alone and forgotten,
So now the world belongs to me,
the world belonged to me,
Then the stumming stopped and switched to a different song.
I never thought I would feel this,
guilty and broken down inside,
Living with myself nothing but lies,
I always thought I'd make it,
But never knew I'd let it get this bad,
Living with myself is all I have,
I feel alone,
I can't come to life,
I feel like I'm frozen in time,
This grabbed the attention of everyone in the room (well that or they're faking it). I kept strumming World so Cold.
Living In a world so cold,
Wasting away,
Living in a shell with no soul,
Since you gone away,
Living in world so cold,
Counting the days since you gone away
You've gone away...
I went back to strumming The World Belongs to Me.
So many lives had been taken
Nobody thought I would make it,
Even though I had to go in alone,
I steal some lives,
When we live in the darkness there's always confusion,
Sometimes the mind would provide the illusion,
And you're whole life can change in a blink of an eye
Yeah!
From this point some of the guys joined in, and the band came in as well.
I look to the sky but there's nobody watching
Left behind I'm alone and forgotten,
So now the world belongs to me,
To live and die by the word that is spoken
The legend's a lie
And the silence is broken
So now the world belongs to me
The world belonged to me.
I looked at the people sitting (the girls and Mr. Schue) who were humming
Do you ever feel me?
I'm alone and forgotten,
Starring at yourself paralyzed,
I feel numb can't come to life,
I feel like I'm frozen inside,
Living in a world,
That The Ledgend's a lie and the silence broken,
So now world belonged to me,
I'm too young to loose my soul,
So long I'm,
Left Behind,
I'm alone and forgotten,
I feel like I'm loosing my mind,
Somebody's going to show ya,
Living in a world
That the legend's a lie and the silence is broken,
I looked to the ones who were singing and shook my head telling them the rest of the mash up was for me to sing.
I look to the sky but there's nobody watching
A hero was born from a soul that was forgotten
So the world belongs to me,
To live and die by the word that is spoken,
The legend's a lie and the silence is broken,
So now the world belongs to me,
The world belonged to me...
I strummed a little bit more before stopped and looked at the people clapping then smiled.
"Well you took the assignment to the next level, Puck! Congrats!" Mr Schue said with a smile on his face.
I nodded and headed back to my seat. It was Quinn's turn for a song, and what I didn't expect was the song choice.
"I'm going to sing Last kiss by Rachel Berry..." she said weakly not looking at me at all.
I still remember the look on you're face,
Lit through the darkness at one fifty-eight
The words that you whisper
For just us to know,
You told me you loved,
So why did you go away?
Away?
I knew perfectly well what the song was about not about why she was singing it, but why Rae wrote it.
/3 Flashback /3
I had went over to her house about one fifty and climbed the tree.
"Noah, che cazzo? Why are you here?"
"I love when you swear in Italian at me,"
She let me in the window, and laid on her bed. I sat beside her.
"It's one fifty-eight, in the freaking morning, why are you here?"
"I wanted to say I love you, and I don't want to see this end."
"You came half way across town, at 1 am to tell me that?" she tried to be stern but she smiled.
"I love you and I would walk a thousand miles just to see you."
She pulled me in for a kiss and that night she let me go all the way with her.
/3 End of Flashback /3
I still recall now the smell of the rain,
Fresh off the pavement,
I ran off the plane,
That July night,
The beat of you're heart,
It jumps through you're shirt,
I can still feel your arms..
I wanted to forget about that night she came back from New York, wanted to forget it since that was the first time we fought and the first break up, but no that song made me remember the moment. Everyone was looking at me, why though? It wasn't like I was crying or being a pussy about a stupid song that I know was written because of me.
So I'll go sit on the floor wearing your clothes,
Does she still have my jacket? Hat? Sweater? That was when every girl (as well as Kurt joined in.
All that I know is I don't know how to be something you miss...
She has always been missed by me, I wish I could take back everything I said and did to break us apart.
I never thought we'd have our last kiss,
I never imagined we'd end like this,
You're name forever the name on my lips,
At least my name's forever on her lips.
I still remember the swing in your step,
Life of the party,
Your showing off again
Since when do I show off?
And I'll roll my eyes,
Then you pull me in,
I'm not much of a dancer but for you I did,
Cause I like you're handshake,
Meeting my father,
Love how you walk with you're hands in your pockets,
How you kiss me when I was in the middle of saying something,
I weakly smiled and my eyes were fight with water, every time one was knocked out it fell down my cheek. This isn't being a bad ass, this is being a pussy! Can't they see that I'm dying of sadness here?
"Dude, you're crying..." Finn whispered.
I wiped them away. "No I am not," I snapped quietly.
There's not a day I don't miss those rude interruptions,
If they were so rude, why would she miss them? And I had to she was speaking non-stop all the time!
So I'll go sit on the floor wearing you're clothes
All that I know is I don't know how to be something you miss,
I never thought we'd have our last kiss,
I never imagined we'd end like this,
Your name forever the name on my lips,
oh mmm,
So I'll watch your life in pictures like I used to watch you sleep,
And I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe,
And I keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are,
How could I forget her? She's on my mind constantly. I stood up and sang the part of the song that some guy on youtube had done with two cute chicks.
The sun don't shine on this beautiful day,
Everything reminds me I should have stayed
I can't plan on changing weather and time,
And I never planned on making you cry but not letting go would be living a lie. (a/n: search up boyce avenue's last kiss cover if you have no clue what I am talking about for the next line but the one line is going to be there cause the rest of the 'guy cover' is my own :P)
The guys looked at me like I was from some other planet, and the girls looked in awe. Tears rolled down my face more
So I'll go sit on the floor remembering how we were,
All that I know is I don't know how to be something you miss,
I can't believe we had our last kiss,
Why did we end like t-
My voice cracked and I fell to my knees praying she would forgive me one day. I went to the bathroom and fought all my tears.
...
No one's POV – the rest of the glee class
...
After Puck's run out, Quinn fallowed him since everyone was going today other wise everyone would have gone to see if he was going to be okay.
"Tina, you're up," Mr Schuester finally said.
She came up. "I'm going to be singing bring me to life by Evanesence, and I'm going to need some help for the guy part, so I call up Sam," she smiled.
He nodded and came up.
How can you see into my eyes,
Like open doors,
Leading you down into my core,
where i've become so numb without a soul
my spirit's sleeping some where cold
lead it back home,
Sam joined in. (his shall be bold)
Wake me up,
Wake me up inside
Can't wake up,
wake me up inside
Save me,
Call my name and save me from the dark,
Wake me up,
Bid my blood to run
Can't wake up,
before I come undone,
Save me,
Save me from the nothing I've become,
Tina paused for a second.
Now that I know what I'm without, you can just leave me free,
lead it to me,
And make me free,
bring me to life,
Sam joined in again.
Wake me up
Wake me up inside
Can't wake up,
Wake me up inside
Save me,
Call my name and save me from the dark,
Wake me up,
Bid my blood to run
Can't wake up,
before I come undone,
Save me,
Save me from the nothing I've become,
She held the note for a few seconds before singing again.
Bring me to life,
I've been living a lie there's nothing inside,
Bring me to life,
Frozen inside without your touch without your love darling
Only you are the life among the dead
She held the note again for a few seconds longer then the last time.
All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see kept in the dark,
But you were there to fallow me,
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems not to open my eyes to everything,
Without thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here,
Must have done something wrong,
Bring me to life
Wake me up,
Wake me up inside
Can't wake up,
Wake me up inside
Save me,
Call my name and save me from the dark,
Wake me up,
Bid my blood to run
Can't wake up,
before I come undone,
Save me,
Save me from the nothing I've become,
Bring me to life
They looked at each other.
I've been living a lie there's nothing inside,
Bring me to life...
She held the note for a few minutes before smiling and breathing in air.
"Great work you two," Mr Schue said.
"Thank you,"
"Kurt, you're turn,"
He nodded and headed up. He sung American Wannabe's 'Gives you Hell', and went well with his voice. Then Mercedes sung Travelling Soldier by the Dixie Chicks, Mike sung She's Everything by Brad Paisly for Tina, Matt sang I will Not Bow by Breaking Benjamin, Lauren sang I'm not Ready to make nice by the Dixie Chicks, Sunshine sang Landslide, Sam sang Nightmare by A7X, Finn sang Crazy by Dope, Santana sang Time of your Life by Green Day, and Brittany was the last to go up.
"I'm going to sing a song from Hinder and its dedicated to someone in this room right now," she said looking everywhere except in Matt's direction.
I just want to be alone tonight,
I jest want to take a little breather,
Cause lately all we do is fight,
And everytime it cuts me deeper
Cause something's changed
you've been acting so strange and its taking its toll on me,
Its safe for me to say I'm ready to let you leave,
Santana looked behind her and glared at Matt.
Without you,
I live it up a little every day,
Without you
I'm seeing myself so differently,
I didn't want to believe it then, but it all worked out in the end,
When i watched you walk away I never thought Id say
I'm fine without you!
She finished off the song and smiled for the first time in a few weeks. They talked among themselves when Puck and Quinn came back, and sat in their seats.
"Great songs everyone, and are you feeling okay, Puck?"
Every one turned to see his eyes, that looked empty. Santana glared.
He should be over the skank! She thought to herself. It's been years since the break up.
...
finished.
