A/N: Hi everyone! Sorry for the wait and stuff, but I'm here now, darlings! I've just been so busy. I hope y'all have liked it so far! Thanks to princessgleeky for guessing the song, yes, she is correct. But also she is my sister so big surprise there that she knows. Anyway, here's chapter five!
Setting: William McKinley High School choir room, Wednesday, October 26th, 2011, 9:50 A.M
"So, Brittany, are you ready to sing the song you chose?" Mr. Schuester turned around and looked at Artie, Brittany, and Santana, the three first people to show up for glee club.
Brittany turned to Artie and Santana, and then looked at Mr. Schuester and gave him a wide grin.
"Oh, I was born ready. I think this is a great song."
Santana flipped her high ponytail. "Credits to me…" she said in a singsong-y voice, obviously totally full of herself.
Artie smiled his cute nerdy smile. "Yeah, I have to agree with Santana here. She did think of the perfect song."
Artie and Santana exchanged looks, Santana very proud.
"What song is it?" Mr. Schuester asked, slightly intrigued by all their talk about how "perfect" it was.
Just then, Rachel skipped into the room, with a cute plaid miniskirt, and a Juicy Couture poufy-sleeved blouse. "As always, I'm firs-" Rachel stopped in her tracks, astonished by the fact that she wasn't the earliest one in there, as she usually was.
"Well hello, Artie, Brittany, Santana… what brings you all here so early?" she inquired in her sugary-sweet voice hiding her slight jealousy.
"Oh, just working on a song we're performing today. It's special for Brittany. "
Rachel gave a nice smile, but to herself she was saying "oh, amateurs. Nothing could top what I'm singing today."
She tried to hide her annoying chuckles and said, "Mr. Schuester? Can I do my song first? It's original, I wrote it! We can, um, save the best for last for Brittany!" Rachel thought what she said was funny. "Best? Ha! I'm the best, of course. I'm the best at everything!"
Mr. Schuester sighed. "I guess so, Rachel. Just sit down until everyone else gets here."
The rest of the students stumbled in, and all assembled themselves, setting down book bags and such, and seating themselves on the cheap plastic chairs.
"Well, if we're all ready, Rachel would like to perform her song." Mr. Schuester sat on his desk chair, and watched her walk up.
"Thank you, everyone." Rachel smiled.
"Cobwebs and spiders
Scary ghosts and ghouls and creatures
How can I fight it?
These monsters!
I want to hide
Want to brace myself
Want to get away from all these devils
Aliens
Vampires
Werewolves
Witches
How can I hide?
Hide my fear?
Hide myself?
Oh, I have tried!
Had no gear
Had no help
I want to stay away
But it's too hard to avoid
Want to run today
It's Halloween
Those things we do
You know it's true
I get scared, you get scared
No one has ever dared
To go near the things we fear
The ones that do never come back
It's a time to let all the mutants out
And we do
Yes we do
Are they monsters here?
Or are we?"
Rachel closed her eyes, and took in all of the "applause" she heard. In reality, just a few people were doing that thing where they slowly put their hands together to make about five quiet claps.
Mr. Schuester gave a half smile "thank you, Rachel. That was… nice. When did you write this song?"
"I wrote it when I was 12. I performed it at a Halloween-themed voice recital. My voice teacher loved it."
Quinn rolled her eyes. "And who was that teacher? A clone of you? That song was terrible."
Rachel frowned. "Well, Quinn, what are you singing if you think you're so much better?"
Quinn turned to Mr. Schuester. "I-I have a song I can sing. Would you mind if I just do that now?"
Mr. Schuester agreed to it. His Wednesday classes were shorter so he wanted to get in as much music as he could.
Quinn smiled. "Well, this isn't to Halloween-ish, but I couldn't think of a very good song. I'm singing E.T. by Katy Perry, because it has stuff about aliens and that type of thing and it's a bit creepy. Also, I really like singing her songs."
"You're so hypnotizing
Could you be the devil? Could you be an angel?
Your touch magnetizing
Feels like I am floating, leaves my body glowing
They say be afraid
You're not like the others, futuristic lover
Different DNA
They don't understand you
You're from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go, lead me into the light
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial
You're so supersonic
Wanna feel your powers, stun me with your lasers
Your kiss is cosmic
Every move is magic
You're from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go, lead me into the light
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial
This is transcendental
On another level
Boy, you're my lucky star
I wanna walk on your wavelength
And be there when you vibrate
For you I'll risk it all
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial, extraterrestrial, extraterrestrial
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial"
People clapped more than they did for Rachel, but they still weren't too impressed.
Mr. Schuester gave a quick smile, but he wanted to hurry things up. "Thank you Quinn, that was a good song. Anyway, let's have Brittany perform, talk a little, and that should be the end of our class for today. Brittany? If you're ready?"
"Yeah, I'm ready. Artie, Santana, back me up."
"Sha la la la la, sha la la la la
You used to call me your angel
Said I was sent straight down from heaven
And you'd hold me close in your arms
I thought of the way you felt so strong
I never wanted you to leave
I wanted you to stay here holdin' me
I miss you, I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you
You used to call me your dreamer
And now I'm livin' out my dream
Oh, how I wish you could see
Everything that's happenin' for me
I'm thinkin' back on the past
It's true the time is flyin' by too fast
I miss you, I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you
I know you're in a better place yeah
But I wish that I could see your face, oh
I know you're where you need to be
Even though it's not here with me
I miss you, I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you, I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you"
Brittany started to fall into tears by the middle of the song. No one understood, though.
Mercedes rolled her eyes. "Really, Brittany? Miley Cyrus? What does that song even have to do with anything?"
Rachel was annoyed, and said in her know-it-all sort of way, "Brittany, honey, that was not appropriate for this occasion. Maybe you could sing one of my songs!" Rachel thought Brittany was so stupid and treated her like a baby.
"No!" Brittany burst into tears and ran out of the classroom.
Well, hope you liked it! The song was I Miss You by Miley Cyrus. As always, I love comments! Again, so sorry for the wait. In the future, I will post much more quickly. You know my rules, five comments and the next chapter comes! Hugs!
Love as always,
Amy
