Scene 3

Rachel carries a huge boom box out to the court yard, placing it right in the middle of the huge staircase. She's clad in a blue polka dot dress and a white cardigan. She looks into the crowd of students eating their lunches below as she smiles very confidently before pressing the play button. Melody of Haven't Met You Yet by Michael Bublé starts to play

Rachel

I'm not surprised

Not everything lasts

I've broken my heart so many times,

I stopped keepin' track.

[Rachel makes her way down the stairs slowly with each line as she looks ahead, her eager eyes looking out for potential recruits.]

Talk myself in

I talk myself out

I get all worked up

Then I let myself down.

[She reaches the bottom of the stairs as students' starts noticing her act, most of them looking rather amused.]

Tried so very hard not to lose it

I came up with a million excuses

I thought, I thought of every possibility

[Rachel twirls around, her dress spinning as she makes her way steadily towards the nearest round table already filled nerd students. They looked at her with amusement, some even starting to sway along to the beat – an unusual sight. She looks a little unsatisfied as a group of cheerios walked towards her, before the chorus as they started doing a synchronized dance]

And I know someday that it'll all turn out

You'll make me work so we can work to work it out

And I promise you kid, that I'll give so much more than I get

I just haven't met you yet

[They stop as Rachel quickly scurries off to the next table before humming a little to the music, the cheerios following her.]

They say all's fair

In love and war

But I won't need to fight it

We'll get it right

[Her eye catches a glimpse of a rather cute blonde boy with a particular set of full lips standing there looking her way; she grins as she vaguely makes her way towards him. Her eyes not leaving the boy's figure as she placed her hands to her chest as she sings a high note.]

And we'll be unitedddd

[She starts climbing up onto the nearest table from the blonde haired boy; the cheerios now have trays in their hands as they circled around the table with the school band coming out from the top of the stairs, adding their instruments to the music.]

And someday I know it'll all turn out

And I'll work, to work it out

[Rachel makes her way down the table as she makes her way right up to the blonde boy. Sam looks down at her, smiling as he bops his head to the music.]

Promise you kid, I'll give more than I get

Than I get, than I get, than I get

[Rachel sings a high note again as she grabs Sam's hand and started dancing with him. Sam looks like he's enjoying his time as he danced with the brunette]

Oh you know it will all turn out

And you'll make me work, so we can work, to work it out

And I promise you kid, to give so much more than I get

Yeah I just haven't met you yet

[Rachel was overjoyed as she sang, thinking that she found the one as the duo continued dancing. By this time, the whole courtyard was clapping along, dancing as confetti started falling down.]

I said love, love, love, love, love, love, love

I just haven't met you yet

Love, love, love, love, love, love

[Rachel beamed as she slows down her dancing with the blonde jock, looking at him right in the eyes as their hands slowly pulled apart.]

I just haven't met you yet

[The music ended right then and there, with Rachel eyes fluttering at the blonde boy's face before being interrupted by one of the school's hockey players.]

Rick the Sitck: Hey, when's the due date?!

[Rachel blinked as her vision went back to normal; Rick started laughing loudly at his own joke as he walked away with his teammates. She looked around her, there wasn't any band, nor was anyone remotely listening to her.]

Sam: Hey..uh, you okay?

[Rachel froze, not realizing that she actually did ended up standing right next to the blonde boy she saw but being Rachel Berry, her flinch moment didn't stop her from introducing herself]

Rachel: I'm Rachel Berry. You might know me if you're an avid follower on Myspace, I always keep my small group of fans up to date with my current life. Now that we got that point across and judging from that blank look on your face tells me you don't. May I know your name?

[Sam looked at her, rather confused at the whole thing but nevertheless, he stayed where he was]

Sam: My name's Sam..Sam Evans.

Rachel: Alright Sam, I want you to meet me by the auditorium today at 3.30 sharp. I've got something for you. Don't be late.

[She smiles brightly in a scary fashion, leaving poor Sam without a chance to decline as she takes fast steps away from the boy, feeling extremely proud of herself.]
