It's not Always Sunny on the Other Side Chapter 10, a glee fanfic

A/N- Okay guys thanks sooo much for reading this and even more of a thanks to those who took the time to review! I love to get feedback, so please let me know how i'm doing with this fanfic! Enjoy the next chapter...this is almost done by the way ..and sorry about the long wait, my mom locked my computer cause' I got grounded so I couldn't go in the internet, which i needed to get song lyrics! Haha kay enjoyyy(;

I couldn't keep the smile off of my face as I marched into the school, my hand in Britts and my head held high. Today was definately going to be something to remember. I had it all set up, the video camera in the locker room (yeah, i know they aren't supposed to be in there, but sue has her way of making things against the rules happen.), Kurt, uh, volunteered, with a little push from me to help out, and I got Artie (well, i got Britt to ask Artie, since i refuse to talk to Stubbles McCripples pants without being able to push his wheelchair down the stairs) to ask some of the AV club kids to help put my little...anouncement, up for the whole school to see duiring the pep ralley today. I know that it's wrong, and probably a little overboard, but hey, no one, and i mean no one messes with Santana Lopez without me doing something about it.

"Please, Santana, don't make me do this." Kurt whined as he chased me down the hallway. Brittany was trying to play with his hair.

"Not now, Britt." I told her pulling her hand away by taking it with my own. She looked like she was trying to pout, but she couldn't keep a smile off of here face.

"C'mon Porcelain! You promised me!" I told Kurt.

"Not really, Satan. I mean, Santana. You told me you'd make my life hell if I didn't do it. I'm pretty sure thats called blackmail, not a promise..."

"Whatever! Just do it! Or I'll make Mr. Warbler do it." I threatened.

"Fine, Blaine wouldn't do something like than anyways. Besides, he's not a Warbler anymore, Santana! He's part of new directions now."

"Yeah, until we get our entire setlist out and he just so happens to get transfered back into homo explosion school. Besides, I have a way with making guys do whatever I want them to." I smirked at him.

"We're not talking about Jesse St. James. And Santana, you have a way of making straight guys do almost anything you want, before you ended up not being straight anyways."

"Whatever! Just do it Hummel." I gave him my HBIC look and he nodded, sighing and saying something that was probably supposed to hurt my feelings, but I was in way too good of a mood to have anything ruin my day.

"Goodmorning Santana. I was just wondering if maybe-" I heard a squeaky voice behind me say, obviously Rachel, before I cut her off.

"Look, Hobbit. I'm not interested." I spat without turning around. Berry always found a way to annoy me.

"You didn't even know what I was going to say." She argued.

"I don't care, Manhands."

"You expect us to be there for you when you're going through you're time of need, but look at how you treat us all, Santana. Just remember, the kids in the school don't completely understand what's going on with you. They think you're still straight, and that's why they haven't been all over you yet. When you need friends, not the cheerios but people who really care about you, I hope you know that we're not going to be there for you, not when you treat all of us like this. I mean, look what Quinn has done for you, and you've spent years trying to kill eachothers reputation. She does all of this for you, and you don't even know what's going on with her, do you? Have you even seen her recently? Or Puck? Do you know what they're going through? Or how about Kurt. You're going through exactly what he's had, and still is going through. Yet you still make jokes about his sexuality when you're the same way! You treat us all just as bad as usual, but remember, we're the ones you can truly count on. Don't ruin that, or you might get in to deep to be able to dig yourself out. And I was going to ask if you wanted my solo for the pep ralley today. I thought you'd do a better job with his. My mistake."

"Nice metaphor Berry, but trust me, I've been in deep before, and I still managed to get myself out." I started, as Rachel made a disguisted face, understanding the 2 meanings of my sentence.

"Thanks for the lecture, but I could care less what you have to say. And also, Berry, you talk to much." I walked away, feeling on the verge of tears. What she said really got to my heart, but I just couldn't help but be the same bitch I usually am. She was going to give me her solo? Is she okay?

"That was mean." Britt said, pointing out the obvious like usual.

"I know, Britt. I'm sorry, it's just that, today's kind of a big day, and I'm stressed, and I'm scared, and-" For the first time in a while Brittany actually cut me off.

"She's right, you know."

"What?"

"Rachel, she's right. You expect so much from them, but you never give them anything in return. Why can't you treat them like you treat me?" Sometimes she was just so smart.

"I'm scared." I whispered, barely audible enough to understand. But Britt knew me well enough to read my lips.

"Of what?" I hesitated, but she waited patiently.

"People, trust, frienship, love. I'm scared that as soon as I completely trust someone, they're going to dissapear. Or, as soon as I admit that I love someone, I'm scared they won't feel the same way. That's why it took so long for me to admit I was in love with you Britt. It wasn't that you weren't good enough, it was because because I was afraid you wouldn't feel the same way. I'm scared that as soon as I let my walls down, somebody's gonna hurt me, or that as soon as I tell someone a seret, they tell everyone else. It's all fear Britt. I'm scared that if I let the Glee Club learn more about me, like all the stuff I'd told you but no one else, I'm afraid they won't treat me the same. I'll lose my power and my position, but what if they don't like me anymore?" I didn't mean to talk for so long, but the words just came pouring out of me.

"They don't like you now, San. I'm not telling you to tell them everything about you. I just think you should be nicer to them, especially since they're the only ones who know what you're going through." I didn't have anything to say, just shocked about what Britt said. People never understood how smart she really was. I reached out and hugged her, considering giving Karofsky another chance. That's what Britt would do. She'd forgive him, and not make him do something he isn't ready for. My mind changed when I felt Britt tense up. Felt something cold touch my fingertips. I knew what was happening before I even looked up. Standing in front of me was David Karofsky and Azimio holding empty slushy cups. And Britt had purple slushy dripping down my face. Everything happened in a blur after that.

"Slushy me all you want Karofsky, but don't you even fucking try and do anything to Brittany. Remember, I got something over you, something that might accidenly...slip to the rest of McKinnley High!" I yelled getting so close to him I could smell his bitter breath.

"You wouldn't do that." He said, matter-of-factly, not even the slightest bit worried. I don't know why, but that really set me off. I slammed my fist into his nose, feeling each crack as he cried out in pain. Blood dripped down his face, as I walked away, saying,

"Yeah, I would. And I just might." Without looking back. Screw another chance, I told myself as I led Britt into the bathroom.

"It didn't get on my uniform right?" She asked as i started washing slushy out of her hair. It didn't seem to get on anything other than her hair and face.

"Nope, you're all clean." I smiled at her, letting her up to examine herself in the mirror. I stared at her reflection, soaking in everying I saw. Wow. She was truly beautiful.

**After Lunch**

"Welcome McKinnley High Glee Club!" I heard Figgins say as the curtains opened, revealing the girls on the stage. Since Sue decided not to put her cheerios in the pep rally (she refuses to tell us why.), Glee club got 2 songs. Mr. Schue decided to split it up boys and girls again, and let us pick our songs. Brad started the piano, Rachel taking the first verse.

"There's only two types of people in the world. The ones that entertain, and the ones that observe. Well baby I'm a put-on-a-show kinda girl, Don't like the backseat, gotta be first (oh, oh). I'm like the ringleader, I call the shots (call the shots), I'm like a firecracker, I make it hot (make it hot) When I put on a show."

Brittany came to the front of the stage taking the next part, while we all continued our dance that Britt and Rachel spent hours together choreographing.

"I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins (hah, hah, hah), Spotlight on me and I'm ready to break (hah, hah, hah), I'm like a performer, the dance floor is my stage (hah, hah, hah)
Better be ready, hope that ya feel the same (hah, hah, hah). "

I wasn't supposed to take the chorus, but Rachel made eye contact with me during Britt's part, and I could tell she wanted me to do it. I didn't have time to think about why.

"All the eyes on me in the center of the ring, Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah). When I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip, Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah). Don't stand there watching me, follow me, Show me what you can do. Everybody let go, we can make a dance floor
Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ho, ho, ho)." I finished my part, letting Britt take the next part. (She REALLY liked singing Brittany Spears songs and Ke$ha songs)

"There's only two types of guys out there, Ones that can hang with me, and ones that are scared. So baby I hope that you came prepared, I run a tight ship, so beware, I'm like a ring leader, I call the shots. I'm like a fire cracker, I make it hot when I put on a show." She finished, signaling Tina to continue with the Bridge.

She finished, glancing around for Mercedes to take the chorus.

""All the eyes on me in the center of the ring, Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah). When I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip, Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah). Don't stand there watching me, follow me, Show me what you can do. Everybody let go, we can make a dance floor Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ho, ho, ho)."

We all sang the next part.

"Let's go..(ah, ah, ahaha-hah), Let me see what you can do..(ah, ah, ahaha-hah) I'm running this. Yeah, like what..?"

Quinn took the next part, but immediately I noticed she wasn't really into it.

Britt took the chorus again, finishing the song with the rest of us.

"All the eyes on me in the center of the ring, Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah) When I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah) Don't stand there watching me, follow me Show me what you can do Everybody let go, we can make a dance floor Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah)

The rest of the girls joined in at,

"All the eyes on me in the center of the ring Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah) When I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah) Don't stand there watching me, follow me Show me what you can do Everybody let go, we can make a dance floor Just like a circus (ah, ah, ahaha-hah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ho, ho, ho)."

The crowd rose up clapping for us. Well, except the cheerios. Sue didn't allow them to clap for us.

"Thanks for listening to our Glee Girls! Now, get ready for the Glee Guys!" Mr Schue Announced so we could all get off the stage that way the boys could come in and do their song.

Puck walked out first, starting the song with no one behind him.

"I've paid my dues Time after time I've done my sentence But committed no crime And bad mistakes I've made a few I've had my share of sand kicked in my face But I've come through
(And we mean to go on and on and on and on)!"

Artie came out next, holding a guitar and being pushed by Finn, followed immediately by Kurt and Mike. Kurt sang the next part.

"We are the champions my friend And we'll keep on fightin' till the end We are the champions, We are the champions No time for losers 'cause we are the champions..."

They all sang,

"Of the world!"

Finn continued singing the next part.

"I've taken my bows And my curtain calls You brought me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it...I thank you all!

Artie sang the next phrase while still playing his guitar.

"But it's been no bed of roses, No pleasure cruise! I consider it a challenge before the whole human race And I ain't gonna lose!"

Kurt excitedly sang the next part of the song.

"We are the champions my friend And we'll keep on fighting till the end We are the champions We are the champions No time for losers 'cause we are the champions..."

All 5 of the boys sang out,

"Of the world!"

Finn took the last part,

"We are the champions my friend And we'll keep on fighting till the end We are the champions...We are the champions. No time for losers..."

Everyone sang,

"'cause we are the champions!"

Everyone (with the exception of the cheerios) stood up and clapped for them as well. I started getting nervous, and I could tell Kurt felt sick too, as Mr. Schue tried to rope more kids into the club. They all began talking to their friends as soon as he said,

"Glee Club needs new members!" They didn't listen to a single thing he said. But I didn't blame them, I wouldn't have listened either. I wouldn't be here right now if it weren't for...Quinn. I needed to thank her. It wasn't my style, at all. But she's the reason I'm in Glee Club in the first place, she's was the friend I needed when Britt and Puck weren't there, she was the little girl in 6th grade that that stood up for me when that kid hit me back after I hit him. I owed a lot to Quinn, as much as I dislike her most of the time, and as much as I hate to admit it, I loved Quinn. Not like Britt, that's just be creepy, but as a best friend. And other than Puck and Britt, she was my best friend. I needed to thank her somehow. But these dramatic moments were just not my thing at all...I'd do something somehow to repay here though, even if she doesn't know it's me, I'll find something to do to pay her back for all she's done for me. But first, we have some business to deal with: Karofsky.

"Mr. Schue, I'd like to say something."

He looked startled.

"Uh, sure...Here's the microphone." He handed it to me, looking confused, unsure of what I was going to do. The AV kids knew exactly what was happening. They got everything hooked up while I talked to Figgins, telling him that this should only take about 10 minutes, that way they could get on with the pep rally.

"This school, it's basically like any other school. And like a wise Sue Sylvester once said, 'this school is like a caste system.' She's right though. And we all know it. That's why we try so hard to be football players or cheerios. It's because we want to be popular. I know I've got a reputation for lying and manipulating other people, and yeah, more than that, so I wont blame you if you don't believe me when I tell you that someone on our football team, that is not Kurt Hummel, even though he quit, is gay. I know it's wrong to out somebody if they aren't ready, I know how bad it is, but you know I have reasons this time, it's because I'm trying to be a bi- a stuck up cheerleader," I caught myself, "It's because this person has given me so many reasons to do this to him. Just watch this video and see for yourself." I pointed at she screen behind me as the AV kids turned it on. I could see Karofsky in the distance looking around frantically to see if there were any other nervous looking football players, the ones I could be talking about. What was that feeling in my gut...guilt? no, I didn't feel guilty.

"I'm just trying to help you!" The Kurt on the video screen said.

"I don't need your help! I don't even know if I'm gay for sure or not! Maybe bi or something, I don't know." The Karofsky on the TV looked miserable.

"Just come out, things get so much easier." Kurt tried to reason with him.

"No, I'm not going to turn into some kind of loser. Maybe once I'm out of here I'll come out, but not now."

"Why are you so afraid?" Kurt asked.

"Same reason Santana Lopez is! We've got a rep. that isn't worth breaking. Now get out of here Hummel, I don't want people asking questions, and remember, you don't tell anyone this."

Kurt got up and ran out of the locker room, as Karofsky watched him go, he slammed his head against the lockers looking like he was on the verge of tears.

I expected everyone to be looking at him, making him feel humiliated like he did to me when he slushied me and Britt. But the people in the audience only seemed so catch one part of that video. "Same reason Santana Lopez is." They all just stared at me. This wasn't supposed to be MY public announcement! This was his! Just as I felt like I would break down crying, I heard someone talk into one of the extra microphones.

"How is it that one of the most homophobic guys in this school is gay? We're not doing this just to try and embarrass Dave Karofsky, we're doing this because we want him to know what he put Kurt through each and everyday, and any other gay kid in this school." It was Quinn, working her magic words. Just another thing I'd have to thank her for.

"I'm not gay! That's edited or something!" I heard Karofsky scream from the bleachers.

"Just accept that it's time for you to come out! I'm done seeing you mess with Kurt." I said into the microphone.

"I think you're done seeing me mess with Brittany." He shouted back.

Britt looked up when she heard her name. Naturally, she looked right at me. She smiled when she noticed me looking at her, like she had no idea what was going on. I couldn't help but smile back at her, which probably didn't make the situation any better. I just went for it before I lost my courage.

"Yeah, you're right. I'm sick of seeing you bully people for being different, when your just as different as the rest of us. I don't like seeing you mean to Kurt or Blaine, but I hate when you do anything to Brittany." The crowd was watching us like some kind of reality TV shows. The teachers hadn't even tried to stop us yet.

"Remember our deal? You broke you're end, so guess what. I got something to show the school, in honor of you."

"No."

He laughed,

"No? That's it?"

"No, you're not going to show anything."

"Why not?"

"Because I'm going to do it myself." He just stared at me completely utterly entirely shocked.

I motioned for Britt to come over by me.

"Losers of McKinley High, I'm gay." And just like that, I grabbed Britt's waist, pulled her up against me, and kissed her. Like REALLY kissed her. In front of the entire school. It seemed like the world disappeared as I pressed my lips to hers, he fingers tangling and twisting through my hair as I rubbed up and down her back, then realizing how awkward this was. We were making out in front of the entire school...today was definitely weird. I pulled away, as one kid shouted,

"No way! I've heard stories about you at parties, your just drunk!"

"Kid, trust me, I do a lot worse things than that when I'm drunk." And with that, I grabbed Britt's hand and pulled her behind the stage with the rest of the glee kids following, anxious to get away from the crowd that just realized what happened. I broke down. I don't know why, but I just couldn't hold it in any longer. With everything that had happened, I fell apart in Brittany's arms, crying until my throat hurt.

"Santana?" I heard Quinn say. I looked up, and saw Figgins standing there.

"Santana, Brittany, I need you guys in my office. Along with Kurt." And that's when I noticed Karofsky standing next to him, giving me a look that clearly said he wished I was dead. I followed the them into Figgins office, standing between Kurt and Britt with my eyes puffy and red.

"Yes?" I sat down in a chair, sounding bored.

"You three have broken a lot of school rules today! First Santana, you not only displayed a very personal conversation to a public audience, but you also managed to get cameras into to the boys locker room! And not only that, you managed to gain access to them? How do you explain that?"

"Talk to Sue. I'm sure she'd LOVE explaining herself."

"Yes, well, okay, Sue has her reasons. We'll move on. You and Brittany had a moment of a VERY public display of VERY intimate...affection. That's not allowed in school." I leaned forward in my chair.

"With all due respect, sir, you do realize you have the only 4 gay kids in this school, besides Blaine, sitting in your office, as you try and punish us. I think this is a very clear sign of homophobia, and with Sue going for Congress, I don't think you'd want her to slip saying that the principal of McKinley High is discriminating against his students. I mean, look at this. It's sad. Your racist, sexist, and homophobic. You don't like me, cause I'm Hispanic, you don't like seeing women in a position of power, and to add to It, I'm gay. Do you know how this is going to look if I press charges? I could have you fired. Do you really want that? You see kids doing much worse in the halls than what I did out there with Britt. You've seen me do worse things in the janitors closet with Puck than what happened out there and you never brought us in. You didn't suspend anyone for PDA before, so why start now? Because, you don't like gay people."

I leaned back in my chair, satisfied with my response. He kept trying to talk while I was in the process of my ...speech, but I never let him.

"You may all go to class." He sighed, obviously upset he couldn't even argue with his own students.

What was that about? What has been going on today? First Rachel giving up her lines in the songs, then -wait...Rachel...where did Rachel go? She wasn't in the back with the rest of us...Today was definitely not right. I needed to figure out what was going on.

"Hey, Britt. Where's Berry?"

"Maybe she got scared after you yelled at her in the hallway and then stole her lines on stage." She suggested.

"Okay, I didn't yell...and she gave me her lines on stage! Besides, I don't think that's it. Something is going on with her, Puck, and Quinn today, probably the last couple days. I've just been too wrapped up in you and my life to notice. Not that I usually notice when something is wrong..." I looked up at the ceiling, upset that they didn't feel like they could tell me. Well, okay, that had a very good reason to, but still.

"Maybe Quinn or Puck will sing about it in there song during Glee Club..." Brittany tried to boost my mood. I didn't like when she thought I was upset, so I put on a smile, faking it of course, but I've been smiling a fake smile for so many years, even I couldn't tell the difference anymore. I grabbed her hand and said,

"Yeah, You're probably right." We walked to Glee club, ditching the rest of our classes and just hanging out in the choir room. I didn't feel like seeing people anyway. Not people that had learned about me from the assembly. I didn't want to know what they had to say, and I was not in the mood to go all Lima Heights on some kid right now. I just wanted some alone time with Brittany.

"Berry!" I shouted as soon as the door opened. I pulled away from Britt (I promise, we were just talking and she had her head on my shoulder. That's it!), and ran over to the door. She saw me, and turned around to leave. I grabbed her by the neck of her shirt.

"What is wrong with you Man-hands? You're acting...almost normal today."

"Since when do you care, Santana. I thought you hated me."

"Well, hate is a strong word, but that's not the point! What's wrong with you."

"Don't you find it weird that I'm kind of like...Quinn's step daughter in law or something like that?" I just looked at her, completely stunned as she walked away. I looked at Britt for help explaining. I mean, she was the queen or random comments. But even Britt looked confused.

Once all the glee kids had shuffled into their seats, Mr. Schue walked in, with a doe-eyed red head following him. We all stared at Ms. Pillsbury, unsure why she was here.

"She just wanted to watch you all sing...that's all. Okay, now we don't have too much time so why don't you start us off...Quinn?"

She nodded her head, walking down to the front of the room.

"Okay, I know that even though I'm not as bad as Santana, I still act pretty closed off around you guys. So you probably haven't really noticed much, but a lot has changed for me. I'd like to sing my song before I tell you guys anything, so yeah, I'll explain when the songs over.

She took a deep breath and started,

"Don't take me to the tower, And take my child away. It was I who was The hourglass. And the sands of time like Shattering glass went past me Like a tunnel to the sea And I who went to sleep as two Woke up as one now only you remain You'll close your eyes and travel back To the time when the light went fading fast And the words you'll never, never forget, oh no As you slipped away Goodbye baby I hope your heart's not broken Don't forget me Yes I was outspoken You were with me all the time I'll be with you one day And I who went to sleep in tears Woke up in tears, for all of the years And I who never, never said goodbye As I slipped away Goodbye baby hope your heart's not broken Don't forget me Yes I was outspoken You were with me all the time I'll be with you one day Goodbye baby I hope your heart's not broken Don't forget me Yes I was outspoken You were with me all the time I'll be with you one day Yes, I'll be with you one day." By the end of the song she looked ready to cry.

"I miss my baby, I wish I'd never given her up. I know I would've been a bad parent to her, I couldn't be like Shelby...but I just love my daughter, and I wish I could still be a part of her life. "

I don't know why, but I just had a sudden urge to go down there and hug her. Well, I guess she did the same thing for me. I walked down the steps and gave Quinn a hug.

"You would've been a great mom." I told her, which was about as comforting as I could do for her, before I went back to my seat.

"That was perfect Quinn. Your understanding this assignment better than I am. This isn't about telling secrets, it's about letting something huge off your chest to your real friends. Really good job Quinn. Okay, Puck? You want to go next?"

"Sure Mr. Schue." He said getting up and walking over to the front of the stage.

He started his song before saying anything,

"As life goes on I'm starting to learn more and more about responsibility I realize everything I do is affecting the people around me So I want to take this time out to apologize for things I have done And things that have not occurred yet And the things they don't want to take responsibility for I' m sorry for the times I left you home I was on the road and you were alone I'm sorry for the times that I had to go I'm sorry for the fact that I did not know That you were sitting home just wishing we Could go back to when it was just you and me I'm sorry for the times I would neglect I'm sorry for the times I disrespect.

Come up to meet you, Tell you I'm sorry, You don't know how lovely you are had to find you, Tell you I need you, Tell you I set you apart Tell me your secrets, And ask me your questions, Aww let's go back to the start
Runnin' in circles, sounds like, Comin' our tails, Heads on the science apart...Nobody said it was easy It's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be this hard Aww take me back to the start I was just guessin', At numbers and figures, Pullin' the puzzles apart Questions of science, Science and progress, Do not speak as loud as my heart Tell me you love me, Come back to haunt me, Oh when I rush to the start Runnin' in circles, [sounds like] Chasin' our tails, Comin' back as we are...

I understand that there are some problems And I am not too blind to know All the pain you kept inside you Even though you might not show If I can apologize for being wrong Then it's just a shame on me I'll be the reason for your pain and you can put the blame on me You can put the blame on me Said you can put the blame on me You can put the blame on me ..."

Everyone just kind of looked at him weird. What was he saying?

"Sorry for the bad mash-up Mr. Schue. But both of those songs really help how I feel right now. I didn't really have enough time to put them together right, so I just sort of threw them together this morning...but it's the best I can do."

"It's great Puck. Really. Can you explain to us about it a little bit?"

"Uhh..okay. Well it says in the beginning, you know, the first song, that I'm starting to learn responsibility, and thats true. I'm starting to feel guilty about everything that I've put everyone through and I'm finally starting to realize that a lot of this is my fault. I can't just keep blaming all of my mistakes on other people. I mean, It's my fault Quinn's depressed. It's my fault she got pregnant in the first place. I can't blame her for getting pregnant when I'm the one that knocked her up. And all these girls that I played, I just feel guilty about leaving them alone all the time when I never even liked most of them and cheated on half of the ones I dated. Actually loving someone, like Quinn, brought this to my attention, and now I'm afraid that It's all gonna' come back and bite me in the ass. Karma's a bitch sometimes. Just everyone I've been such a jerk to, I'm starting to really feel bad about all this shit I've don't to people and I don't want to be 'that guy' anymore. I want to be the guy Quinn can look down the hallway at and say "thats my boyfriend." Without feeling ashamed or embarrassed or whatever. I want to change, and that starts with taking responsibility."

"Great puck. Just watch the language, alright? Okay, next is Brittany!"

We all kind of shuffled around, unsure of what to expect at all. Sometimes she had her smart moments, and would blow us all away, outsmarting even Quinn sometimes. And then there was the normal Britt, where everything involved her cat, her diary, melted cheese, and/or something else totally random. We never knew what to expect from her.

" I couldn't decide what song to sing! I was going to sing space unicorn, cause' you guys know that I'm a unicorn. But San to me to pick something a little more deep, so I did the best I could and picked one a little more personal! Ready? I'm the best one in here, sorry Rachel but it's true." She said confidently.

"I love cats. I love every kind of cat. I just wanna hug all of them but I can't Can't hug every cat Can't hug every cat So anyway I am a cat lover. And I love to run.
I'm sorry I'm thinking about cats again. I really love cats I'm thinking about cats again. And again, and again and again and again I think about how many don't have a home And how I should have them I think about how cute they are And how their ears and the whiskers and the nose I just love them And I want them And I want them in a basket And I want little bow ties I just love them And I want them To be on a rainbow And in my bed And I just want us to roll around (to roll around) (round) (round) Sorry I'm getting emotional I love cats I love every kind of cat I just want to hug all of them But I can't Can't hug every cat Can't hug every cat So anyway I am a cat lover and I love to run I'm sorry I'm thinking about cats again I really love cats But I can't hug every cat Can't hug every cat Can't hug every cat..."

And then she smiled at us like this was completely normal. We all just gaped at her.

"See! I knew I'd leave you guys breathless!"

We didn't even know if we should clap. Well, I sort of clapped, because I felt like I should be supportive, but when no one else did, I just let my hands fall.

"Um...Brittany?" Mr. Schue finally spoke. She turned and looked at him.

"How does this relate to you in any sort of way...?"

"I tried to hug Lord Tubbington today, and he scratched me! I just love cats so much and I want to hug them all and cuddle with them all, but not every cat is huggable. This song goes perfect!" She said like it was common sense. The rest of us shot Mr. Schue glances that told him to just drop it. At least she didn't sing space unicorn. She'd been singing that to me the past two days non stop, it's her new favorite song.

"Well, that was...interesting. I'll see you guys next week! Um, Artie, Mercedes, and Kurt, you guys can go next week. Have a nice night!" He seemed more anxious than usual to leave. Usually he stayed just as long as Berry. I didn't really want to go back to his house, it was weird staying with a teacher. My only other other option was...Well, I guess it's better than that OCD creature Mr. Schue lives with.

"Hey, Quinn? Can I talk you?" I looked her in the eyes, out of habit trying to let people know I'm always in charge of whatever is happening, but I was nervously patting my leg as she walked over to me.

"Yeah?"

"Uh, can I stay with you for a little while...It's just that staying with-"

"Sure." She smiled at me.

"Puck, Santana's coming with us tonight!" She yelled to him as we walked down the hallway.

"Great, my two favorite ladies!" He joked. Quinn almost looked jealous for a second before she remembered about me. I just smirked at him. Wow. A lot had changed between me and Quinn and we walked down the hallway. I remembered not that long ago that I'd beaten her up right there, and slushied her there, and almost got her kicked off the cheerios there. Not to mention whatever else I'd done to her over the years. So much changed from how it used to be. But I kind of like it better...kind of.
