I do not own Glee or anything to do with it. That belongs to Ryan Murphy and FOX.
Thanks to everyone for their reviews it means a lot. This chapter will feature some heavy Emma/Carl (it's a necessary thing to happen) so if you don't want to read it don't read this chapter. Normal service will carry on however next chapter
Don't stand too close to me
Chapter four: I run to you
Will sighed as he looked out of his seminar window and saw a red head and a black haired head walking down the road towards where the cafes and bars on the campus was. Will ruffled his curls then turned around to see Rachel staring at him with an inquisitive look in her eyes
"Rachel hi" Will smiled "I was just getting some fresh air. Kinda stuffy in here"
"I just came to have a word" Rachel smiled brightly sitting on the front desk. Will pulled up one of the chairs and glanced at the dark headed girl "Because there aren't any clubs that deal with triple threats,that`s singing, dancing and acting" she added on so that Will wouldn't get too confused "I thought we could set up a club. There`s just singing clubs and there`s just clubs for dancers and there is also the drama club not nothing all combined into three" Will held out an hand interrupting Rachel who crossed her arms annoyed
"So what you are saying is that you want to create a club that will combine the talents of all three" Will said slowly. Rachel nodded then carried on talking at a fast pace
"I already spoken to Kurt and he seems keen. Artie, well that might be a bit harder but Tina said she would come and push him to rehearsals, and Mercedes wants to join. I`m sure I can also get a few of the others dorm members to join as well"
"So how does that include me" Will replied blankly
"Welll" Rachel grinned wickedly "Your all three. Mercedes cousin saw you in a play last year" Will cringed as he remembered the play Terri had made him sign up for then continently dropped out after she said she thought Kendra was in it as well "Your also a great dancer as you showed last week when Finn and Puck challenged you to a dance off"
"And the singing" Will raised an eyebrow "You never know I could be a really bad singer"
"That`s true" Rachel nodded "But Quinn was passing by the auditorium the other day and heard you singing. She ran to tell me" she smiled "So please will you lead us I know Finn will join if your the director and then maybe I can get a few of the other boys to join" she begged. Will sighed and nodded
"Ok Rachel ill think about it" he replied. Rachel grinned and bounded out of the seminar room. Will just shook his head, then after waiting to see if Rachel was out of sight, locked the seminar room up and strode towards the exit. He wanted to just make sure Emma was ok, some people might call that stalking but Will had a funny feeling something could go wrong. He was just protective of his student that`s all especially when he knew about her background. Will shook his head as he exited the building and walked the same path Emma and Carl had been on before Rachel had interrupted his thoughts. Will checked his cellphone to make sure Terri hadn't called him; she had been told he was stopping behind to help a student, and Terri wasn't too pleased but Will had reassured her he only wanted the best for his students. And this was what he was doing right, helping a student?. Will stopped for a breath before letting the annoying thought go out of his mind and carry on along the path towards town
"I'm really worried Kendra" Terri replied as she helped her sister into the living room "Will thinks I'm pregnant and if I don't do something soon he`s gonna get suspicious"
"Well have you been having sex" Kendra replied bluntly .Terri looked at her sister weirdly
"Of course we have that`s probably the reason I thought I was pregnant" Terri replied "But I took another test last week and it came back negative. There`s only so much I can do"
"Wait..." Kendra said slowly getting out the local newspaper and flicking through it until she came to the advertisement section. Terri glanced at her sister blankly and Kendra rolled her eyes
"I know I got the brains but sheesh" Kendra muttered "What about you advertise under a false name that you are looking for a baby in say eight months and see who turns up. You could use your cell phone number so Will wouldn't find out and then use a pregnancy pad while the pregnancy ticks on". Kendra knew about the pregnancy pads as she had used one while she was pregnant with her three triplets
"Wont that be a bit dangerous" Terri bit her bottom lip "Who knows who might turn up" she shuddered imagining homeless people or worse still criminals
"Well what`s worse that or losing Will" Kendra snapped "I may not like the guy Terri but he`s better than some of the guys you could end up with if you tell him the truth". Terri nodded
"Your right" she whispered "Ill place an ad tomorrow and see who turns up. Hopefully a young couple will come who can`t afford to look after their baby and then everything will be ok" Terri gave a small smile as she walked into the kitchen to prepare some tea for her and Kendra
"Ill ask around at work as well and my neighbourhood. Don`t worry I won`t say it`s you ill make something up" Kendra laughed. Terri nodded, she wasn't actually crazy about the idea, but like Kendra said she needed to keep Will and if this would keep him then Terri would do anything
"You ok?" Carl glanced at Emma who nodded glancing at the busy streets, glass of water in her hands. They had ordered and now they were just waiting for the meal to come
"It`s just that I haven't been out on a date in such a long time" she whispered "Kinda hard to get back into the swing of things". Carl nodded sympathetically
"I kinda know what you mean. I have girls throwing myself at me all the time but sometimes I don't know if it`s me or if it`s my father`s business" Carl mused sipping on some coffee as the waitress brought the food to them "So I haven't been out in a while either but could we really call this a date. In my opinion it`s just two friends getting to know one another". Emma nodded and gave a small smile as she bit into her food. Meanwhile Will had just arrived and had found a table on his own close to where Carl and Emma were sitting
"What would you like sir?" the waitress swooped down on Will pen in hand and a grin on her face slightly flirting
"Just a small beer please" Will replied. The waitress smiled, wrote the information down and then skipped out towards the drinks area. Will craned his neck as there was an overweight woman sitting in front of Will, blocking his view from seeing Carl and Emma
"There you go sir" the waitress smiled giving Will the cold glass of beer "Would you like anything to eat?"
"N-no thanks" Will stammered wishing that the girl would go away so that he could relax and keep an eye on Emma. The waitress looked disappointed but nodded
"Ok well enjoy your drink then" she smiled walking to the next table. Will sipped his beer then pricked his ears up
"So enjoying the classes so far" Carl`s smooth voice spoke to Emma and she nodded
"I like Spanish" she replied "But I also like English and French as well. I have a soft spot for the languages. What about you?"
"It`s ok" Carl shrugged "Will annoys me sometimes but I have a feeling he doesn't like me very much, he seems to concentrate on Finn and Puck more. But you can`t like everyone" he shrugged. Will growled and gripped his fist
"You don't mean that" Emma`s soft voice spread through the air "I`m sure Will doesn't mean to not like you, after all teachers aren't supposed to favour other students above others. He`s always been nice to me and Rachel". There was a pause as Carl thought for a moment then nodded
"Yeah your right" he smiled at Emma who blushed looking embarrassed "It`s probably just me feeling paranoid." There was another silence as they continued to eat their meal while Will sat in deep thought
"Maybe I should give Carl some more time in class" he thought as another waitress came to collect his glass
"Would you like another drink" the 2nd waitress smiled at Will but he just shook his head. The waitress looked surprised but she didn't like to pry. She walked away leaving Will alone
"W-Where`s Emma" Tina stuttered. Rachel had rounded up all the girls to meet in the boy`s dormitory to talk about the new club that Rachel had gone to see Will about running
"Did we not tell you she`s gone out with Carl" Santana smirked "She`s so lucky he`s rich and cute as well" she said dreamily painting her fingernails
"I made out with his once" Brittany mumbled. All the girls turned around and stared at Brittany who looked blank "At the mixer didn't I tell you" she sighed playing with her hair "He was so dreamy and just so nice I couldn't say no"
"Britt you make out with everyone" Santana sighed just as Finn, Puck, Mike and Matt entered the room, Finn pushing Artie who gave Tina a small smile. Kurt emerged from the backroom flipping his bangs as he sat on the bed next to Mercedes
"So why have you called this meeting?" Finn said confused glancing at Rachel
"Be quick I have my early morning facial to do" Kurt rolled his eyes. The group all stared at Kurt confused before turning their attention back to Rachel who smiled brightly
"What if I told you I had found somebody to run our club" she smiled
"I would have said you were out of your mind" Kurt spoke bluntly .Rachel gave Kurt a glare
"Well I have" Rachel said sulkily "And I think a few people in here will be quite pleased when I tell you. Although I don't think I should tell you now"
"I want to know" Finn smiled softly. Quinn gave the tall boy a glare as Rachel kinda annoyed the Cheerio
"Yeah me too come on Rachel" Artie pleaded from his wheelchair. Mercedes and Tina also sent nods towards the petite girl while Puck just scoffed wondering what on earth he was doing here when he could be out in the town chasing skirt. Rachel smiled and nodded
"Ok its Will" Rachel replied
"Will as in Will our Spanish teacher?" Finn replied half blinking but with a huge grin on his face. Rachel nodded
"I went to see him while you were still in the canteen eating and spoke to him. He did say he would think about it but I know that always means a yeah. He can act, sing and dance and with him I think we have a huge chance of this club working out" Rachel grinned. Finn ran towards Rachel and hugged her before he stepped back afraid he had overstepped a mark
"Thanks Rach your awesome!" Finn grinned. Puck rolled his eyes at his best friend and Quinn mouthed "Rach?"
"So is that it" Kurt mumbled. Rachel nodded and the girls filed out of the dorm except for Rachel
"Sorry about the hug" Finn scratched his head nervously "I was just excited that you actually managed to get Will to sign up. He`s a pretty cool dude"
"I actually kinda liked the hug" Rachel blushed as Finn and Rachel glanced at one another before Rachel walked out of the dorm towards the girl's dorm across the hall
.
(It was coming to the end of the night and Emma was waiting for Carl to come back with the bill. Suddenly she felt something brush past her arm and then screamed as a tall male grabbed her bag and started running off with it. However Will was quick to notice and ran straight after the man pinning him to the ground. Will grabbed the bag as one part of the management team ran out and grabbed hold of the man)
"Will?" Emma said confused as she noticed her seminar teacher.
"There`s your bag" he smiled as they noticed the management dragging the culprit into the restaurant "I just came out with some old friends good job I was here" he smiled
"Y-Yeah" Emma nodded and glanced at Will "Thank you" she said softly just as Carl strode towards her
"What happened?" he replied softly stroking her hair
"A bag snatcher but just glad that Will was here" she replied "He tackled the man and got my bag back for me" Carl glanced at his teacher and walked up to him
"Thank you" he replied "Just a good job you were here, If you hadn't been" he shuddered
"Well I would do the same for any of my students" Will replied. Emma hitched her bag on her shoulder and gave Carl a small smile as the two of them walked away. Will sighed as he walked back to his table wondering if he had done the right thing after all
Next time
Emma battles with his feelings for both Will and Carl as Will decides to start the new club up. Meanwhile Terri meets the candidates but can't really decide who to pick as Sue starts to get suspicious between the friendship of Will and Emma
