Thanks to everyone who reviewed/ favorite/followed my story, I greatly appreciate it. Also I am so sorry for taking this long to update a new chapter; I've been extremely busy since I recently started my second semester or Dual Credit, YAY FOR SMART KIDS. Anyway on to the story, please review it would be appreciated.
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN GLEE! If I did, I would have Cory to myself, and I'd make myself Lea's best friend, because she's just awesome. I also don't own Another Cinderella Story, A Cinderella Story, Les Miserables, or the song On My Own.
Chapter 2: Dinners and Dances
Rachel entered her house, after going grocery shopping for Sue's "big dinner", when she was immediately flanked by Brittany and Santana.
"Move I have food to make" said Rachel.
"Then you know who's coming right?" asked Santana.
"Just your crush Finn Hudson" shouted Brittany.
"I don't have a crush on Finn Hudson" scoffed Rachel.
"Oh no" responded Santana innocently, "Well what's this?"
They dragged Rachel to the couch and turned on the T.V, showing a younger Rachel singing a fan video.
"You went through my stuff?" asked Rachel, but she was quickly shushed by Santana.
"I love you Finn Hudson, and you are totally kissable," young Rachel proclaimed, "This is for you."The younger Rachel began to sing On My Own from Les Miserables.
And now I'm all alone again nowhere to turn, no one to go to
without a home without a friend without a face to say hello to
And now the night is near
Now I can make believe he's here
Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I'm happy
With the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head
On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me
Rachel quickly gets off the couch and ejects the video. "Oh that's not our only one" Santana says. "Stay away from Finn, and we won't be forced to show anyone this video, and if you don't…"
"Hello YouTube." Brittany chimes in.
"You can't even work a microwave let alone YouTube" Rachel replied.
"Try us" said Santana.
Rachel then walked off and got started on the food for later. The dinner was supposed to start at 7:00, but Sue was taking to long to get ready and Finn was getting impatient, the fact that he was being crowded by Brittany and Santana wasn't helping much.
"Have another crab puff Chris." Finn's mom, Carole said.
"He's hungry mom, it's been 30 minutes" Finn said.
"Stop complaining Finn" Carole said.
"Mom, you asked me to come here and I'm here" Finn replied, "15 more minutes and I'm leaving."
"I'm right behind you Finn" cried out Blaine.
Carole gave Blaine a death stare, "Finn, if you signing on with Sue's store means that I, I mean we can have a new house, then it's a good opportunity" she said.
"Mom, you have a house, you don't need another one." Finn said, "and besides Sue's store just isn't very cool, I'd rather not sign on with her."
Sue walks in, in an absurd over-the-top dress. She immediately goes into details of how she's going to wear the dress in her commercial announcing that she has signed Finn and the Boys, to her store. Finn keeps insisting that he isn't going to sign on with her, but his parents don't agree and Sue just causes another distraction.
"Rachel drinks now!" Sue yells.
Rachel walks in with her uniform on and serves out the drinks to the adults, and she tries to hide her face away from Finn.
"Sorry Sue, but I don't drink." Finn said
"Well I do" she responded.
"So Finn, have you asked anyone to the Masquerade ball yet" asked Santana.
"Santana, you have stuff in your teeth, Finn you should really ask me I'm quite flexible" said Brittany.
Finn choked on his water, and tried to explain that he was taking a break with his band.
"I'm trying to take a break Sue."
"Well you must be hungry, first course Rachel hurry" Sue said.
"Finn can take a break, from his break" his mom said.
"No, no, I want to focus on my education first please" Finn replied. "I just want to enjoy life."
"That's right, getting in touch with the new Finn Hudson" said Blaine.
"Who are you?" asked Sue.
"I'm Finn Hudson's manager" replied Blaine.
"Pssh, please ignore him Sue, I'm Finn's manager" his mom said.
"You have two managers" asked Santana
"Apparently," replied a frustrated Finn.
"You must be a handful, you want to make out" replied Santana.
"Technically I'm Finn's manager" said Finn's dad.
"Oh shut up, even I know you're completely incompetent" said Sue.
"See, it's not just me" replied his mom.
"This is why I did not want to come today, you are all nuts" said Finn
"Look Finn, you can sign on with my store, or you can simply fade away into teen bop obscurity" said Sue.
"Okay, I have had enough, Finn needs to do things his own way, he needs to keep it real, so from here on out I AM Finn's only manager" said Blaine, "I think we are done he" he finished getting up from the table.
"Thank You" Finn said, as he rose as well crashing right into Rachel, who was still trying to serve. He fell on top of her.
"We keep meeting like this" she giggled.
Finn helped her of the floor and tried to dust her off before Sue stormed in and demanded she get everything clean in an hour. She ran after Finn, trying to convince him about signing with the store.
Kurt and Rachel were in her room, hanging out.
"Kurt don't hate me, but I don't think I wanna go to the ball."
"You have to go I've been working on our costumes for two weeks."
"I know but it's on Valentine's Day, and we don't even have dates, besides everyone's gonna be dressed up and that's really weird."
"That's a good thing Rachel; we can each meet a handsome stranger"
"How will we know he's handsome if he's wearing a mask?"
"Oh by the way he sings at the karaoke thing the band does, hot guys always sing the best."
"I don't even fit in at school, so why go and pretend like I do, it'd be pointless. Besides guys don't even notice me"
"Rachel! No one's going to know who is who, if you like a guy he'll meet the real you, not a lame ass you that's been created by our stupid ass schools cast system."
"Kurt, you should really breath between monologues" Rachel said while smiling, as she looked at her watch," Crap! I've got to start cleaning." She runs off to do Sue's dirty work.
Santana and Brittany walk into their mom's room, and see her getting a massage. They greet her and go into detail how Rachel was talking about the dance and that she may go.
"Oh no that won't do girls; we have to find a way to stop her."
"She can clean my room, or my closet it smells like something died in there," said Santana.
"No I have a very special place that needs cleaning."
Sue walks off to find Rachel
"Rachel, the girls are turning 16 next week."
"Didn't they turn 16 last year?"
"Yes and they will keep turning 16 until I say stop, and we are having a party and I need every room spotless."
"But I'm going to the ball with Kurt tonight, I've cleaned everything"
"Not… my bedroom"
They walked into the room and saw that it was filthy. Trash, clothes and food covered the floor.
"I'm having a business meeting at the store tonight and it's my turn to host it, when I come back at midnight this room will be prestigious."
"Sue, I'd need heavy equipment, like a flame thrower, or toxic chemicals"
"Don't be smart with me, I'll ground you and you won't be able to see your friends again, understood?"
"I guess"
Kurt was sitting on his bed reading the latest fashion magazine, when his phone started ringing. He saw that it was Rachel and he picked it up immediately.
"Hey Rachel, what's up?"
"I can't go to the dance tonight; Sue's making me clean her bedroom."
"You are in her room, that's just disgusting"
"I know"
"Well what if I…"
"Sorry, Kurt I have to go"
Rachel was cleaning as fast as she could, and yet the mess didn't seem to go away. She had been cleaning for hours when she heard the doorbell ring. She ran downstairs to answer it when she saw that it was Kurt with two dress bags in his hand.
"Hey, I'm not even close to being done cleaning and please don't tell me those are our costumes."
"I wish I could, but then I'd be lying"
"Kurt, what part of Sue's making me clean her room don't you understand."
"Well what if I told you, I could clean her room and she'd never find out"
"I'd say, I'd love you forever, why."
"Well, Rachel meet my dad's cousin's boyfriend's sisters Tina and Emma. They are here to help."
"Oh my goodness Kurt, thank you so much, you're awesome."
"Thanks I know, now let's go"
They left the house to Tina and Emma, but little did they know what a big night was ahead of them.
So there's the second chapter, I'm sorry that I didn't upload earlier, I've been really busy with school and stuff, so I may only update once a week. Please review, I'd greatly appreciate it, and I'll try to update faster this time.
