Walking through the halls of McKinley to get to Glee Club; Kurt, Finn and myself were pushed towards some lockers by some jocks in order to make room for Quinn and her posse who were side by side with her. With their chest sticking out and their heads held high, they gestured with their hands anyone who was in their way. They passed us and Quinn turned to give me a bitch glare, I didn't hesitate in return it to her. Passing us, everything return to its normal state and the jocks that were leaning against us got off us. Fixing his fedora, Kurt huffed and fixed his wrinkled shirt.
"I swear, sometimes I want to punch her in the face." I laughed as Finn still had his eyes on Quinn, until she was out of sight. I snapped my fingers in front of Finn's face to grab his attention. He turned wiping a bit of saliva that was coming down from the side of his mouth.
"I don't know why, but this year she has been giving me those dagger eyes like she wants to jump me." Kurt laughed as we started walking to the choir room.
"We all know, no one messes with Mercedes Jones; especially a white girl." Finn nodded with Kurt agreeing to his statement as I sighed.
"I guess all she has is rich white girl problems." We all laughed as we entered the choir room, then Sam's green and piercing eyes planted on me the very second I entered the room. Quinn saw her boyfriend staring at me and walked up to him sitting on his lap moving his head away from me in an attempt to kiss him in front of me.
I could care less of what she does; I don't like Sam and never had. I just can't believe she is insecure of herself and her "position" that she feels threaten by me; she doesn't have to be. I rolled my eyes and Kurt, Finn and myself took a seat at the far end of the seat arrangement. For two years, even though our Glee club has been through some tough times, it surprises me that it's still divided like high school.
I didn't care, we don't have to like each other but there has to be some sort of chemistry or else the judges at competitions are going to feel the passion in our singing. As everyone got settles Miss Pillsbury walked in with a big clipboard and a smile on her face.
"Okay guys, as you may all know, Homecoming week is this week and I would like to sign you off on the songs you guys will be singing. Not everyone will get a song; so don't be upset all right? Okay, the following people please come up I will assign you your song." Everyone just nodded and waited for their names to be called. I love Miss Pillsbury; I loved her like my second mother, along with Carole. She always did an awesome coaching the Glee Club. Taking no crap from Puckerman or Mike, there was no doubt that small middle age women packed the strength of a grown man
"Santana, Noah, Kurt and Artie." They waked off their seats and headed towards the piano, where Mrs. Pillsbury and Brad waited. As I started opened my backpack in search of my AP Calculus book, my phone started vibrating. Opening it I found a text from an unknown number. Then I remembered I started talking to this "admirer" or what Kurt calls it "stalker," for the past 4 weeks straight. It was this sort of an online chat the Celibacy club started in order for people to mingle with others and promote "safe sex". Quinn Fabray being behind the idea and because I was bored and Kurt said that's how he met Blaine.
So I decided to give it a try, not to find somebody; because I don't a man in my life. But this boy seemed to hit the right buttons; he made me laugh, he made me rethink that a gentlemen existed. He was also one big dork; he couldn't stop talking about comic books, Avatar and the language of Na'vi. Which I didn't mind since I also liked those things. It was scaring how alike we were.
I called him Thor and he called me Storm; we named each other after our favorite comic book characters.
Storm, where have you been? I haven't talked to you in ages.
I laughed softly, and looked around to see Kurt eyeing me, then he giggled since he knew who I was texting. I started responding to his text.
Thor, we talked this morning.
I clicked send and I started seeing Quinn playing with her skirt as Mike started making out with Brittany. I scoffed in disgust and felt my phone vibrate again.
Storm, I can't stop thinking about you. What's on your mind right now?
The bell rang and we all headed out of the choir room, with my phone still in my hand, without realizing I had left Kurt and Finn behind.
Thor, you first.
I send the text and headed to my locker where I replaced my AP Calculus book and got my notebook and English book. Before I could close my locker, my phone vibrated.
Storm, I think Jacob needs to stop being a pervert.
I laughed and saw my stepsister Rachel, being chased by Jacob. It made me laugh so hard that I received a death glare from her. I tried calming myself down and texted back.
Thor, LOL!
Then I noticed something. I knew this person went to my same school, and the fact that he texted me something that was happening around us, it probably meant he was near me.
I looked around and try to see if I could find any guy texting, but what I got was 10 guys texting; and that wasn't really helping me. I closed my locker and I headed off to my English class. I felt my phone vibrate and I got nervous for no reason.
Storm, I wish I could hear your laugh. When can we finally meet?
I bit my lip and before turning off my phone and headed inside my English class I texted back.
Thor, Soon :)
We continued talking all day; the school got new computers, which increased the level of chat between us. I sat on one of the new computers and logged into the program.
Storm, how's your day so far?
Thor, ugh! School, work and cool kids that can't get over themselves. Ever feel like you don't belong?
Storm, you have no idea. I can be surrounded by a bunch of people and still feel all alone; but then I think of you :)
I giggled and continued typing.
Hey Thor, do you think we have ever met?
Storm, I don't know, this school as over 3,000 kids.
Thor, work with me here! How does that narrow it down?
Storm, LOL! Well at least I can eliminate the guys. You are not a guy right? If you are I'll kick your butt.
Thor, PLEASE! I am NOT a guy!
Storm, good ;)
Hey Thor, have you talked to your dad about NYADA yet?
What made me like this guy even more was that he wants to apply to the same school as me. He wants to become a performer when he grows up, but his father started having different plans for his future. He wants him to become a NFL player, but all he wants to sing.
Storm, if only I could. I haven't even told him I want to be a singer.
Thor, my father always encouraged me to follow my dreams.
Storm, not mine. He has another plan for my life.
We talked the entire day, in between classes and lunch. After arriving home, I headed to my basement I continued my conversation with him. Seeing the time, which was past 2 am, I knew it was time to call it a day.
Thor, I hate to be the buzz kill but its 2 am, we have been doing this all day and almost all night.
Storm, I think we broke our record ;)
Thor, well I think we should call it a night; sweet dreams.
Just as I was about to log off, he sent me another message.
Storm, wait….All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by frost.
Thor, quoting Lord of the Rings…..dorky..but cute ;)
Storm, please meet me at the Homecoming Dance; I'll be waiting for you at 11pm, in the middle of the dance floor.
Before I could respond, he logged off. I didn't know what to say; but one things for sure; I so glad Glee Club is the entertainment at the dance or else Sue would never have let me go.
Hope you guys liked it!
