Jesse took a deep breath as he collected his guitar. He was going to sing this song and make her feel guilty. Yes, that's what he would do, and he would be able persuade her to move to Vocal Adrenaline where they would win Regionals and show New Directions that he could, and would do anything to win.
"Jesse! You took your time, which closet did you put it in?" Mr. Schue remarked as he sat down in one of the chairs.
"Oh, I had to stop of at my locker to get the sheet music, don't want to be messing up any of my lines and spoil my song."
"It's not the lines that will be spoiling the song" Finn muttered, just loud enough for Puck and Quinn to hear. Quinn elbowed him and made his yelp, and Puck just chuckled.
"Let's get cracking then! Jesse?" Mr. Schue said.
"Yeah, I just need to warm up my vocal chords"
All of a sudden Finn jumped up "Oh for crying out loud, Mr. Schue can you just tell him to get on with it, it's not like your performing for the President of anything, it's a school glee club!"
The Club just stared, shocked at Finn's sudden outburst. He stood there shoulders back, feet apart, standing his ground.
Jesse stood up and walked over to Finn. He was so close Finn could smell his breath; it smelt like candyfloss, what kind of guy smells of candyfloss!
"I'm ready" Jesse said. It was loud enough for everyone to hear, but only loud enough so that Finn was the only one who could hear the venom in his voice.
He picked up his guitar and dragged the microphone over to the center of the room.
"I'm not telling who this song's for, but you could probably guess. I'm singing an acoustic version of Ushers Moving Mountains."
It's like whatever I do,
Ooh
Just can't get through to you
Ooh, ooh
I'm never gonna tell anything wrong
Ooh, ooh,
Listen
Oh
Now, now she loved me, shawty I loved her
Used to jump up in the maybach and roll out
Used to care, she used to share
The love that she used to give me can't be found
I lost my way, she said she'd stay
And lately I've been sleeping with a ghost
My stock is down and out, I used to be worth my weight in gold
That was before a great depression kicked in and rocked us
And that was before the hurricane came in and stopped us
I told you to leave, but you lied to me
When you said that, baby no worries I promise to get us back
I know sorries, just wouldn't do it
Her heart is obliterated, I'm trying to travel through
But it's like moving mountains...
It's like moving mountains... hey.
But I keep climbing and hoping things would change
And the sky turns gray, and the water from the rain washes progress away.
It's like moving mountains... (moving mountains)
It's like moving mountains... (moving mountains)
Why just leave me?
Just leave me be
Just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be, ooh, ooh
Be, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoaaa, whoa
She, she don't touch me, I don't touch her
We rarely even ever say a word
I really want to give her everything she deserves
But the bad took away the good
She thinks that I'm full of it, arguments, always pissed, man I'm tired
Every kiss that I miss, girl you know I'm trying
You never believe when I say, and I never believe it when you say
I love you, and I shouldn't complain about it
I should take it like a man and walk up out it
Cause we will never be the same, ooh
I've been standing in gas and you have been the flame
I know sorries just wouldn't do it
Her heart is obliterated, I'm trying to get through
Got to move this mountain... yeah
It's like moving mountains... hey
But I keep climbing and hoping things would change
And the sky turns gray, and the water from the rain washes progress away
It's like moving mountains... (moving...)
It's like moving mountains... (moving...)
Well baby why you just leave me?
Just leave me be
Just leave me
Just leave me be.
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be, ooh
This must be a slow death that I'm travelin on
It feels so wrong, I'm barely holdin' on...
See no matter what it takes, I've gotta get it together, baby yeah
And these hills that I'm travelin' up
She ain't showin me love
I'm down on my love
Oooh, I'm down
Whoa
I know sorries just wouldn't do it
Her heart is obliterated, I'm trying, I'm trying my boo
But it's like moving mountains... ey
It's like moving mountains... (moving these mountains) hey
But I keep climbing and hoping things would change
And the sky turns gray, and the water from the rain washes progress away
It's like moving mountains... (I'm trying)
It's like moving mountains...
Well baby why you just leave me?
Just leave me be
Just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be, ooh
Baby, baby
Whoa, yeah
Jesse finished and stared at Rachel, pleading with her to understand.
The rest of the glee club was shocked into silence and Finn had a slightly smug look on his face.
"Come on guys; let's give a round of applause of Jesse" Mr. Schue said, looking slightly shocked himself
The glee club members didn't applaud and Kurt and Mercedes moved to either side of Rachel and began to whisper.
"Don't you guys dare to judge me! I'm a much better singer than all of you put together and I have the talent you need to become a star. Rachel understands that, don't you Rach? I thought you did, but lately you won't even touch me, and when I touch you, you flinch away. What am I doing wrong? I thought you didn't want to be a Lima Loser and be stuck in this town forever like the rest of this rubbish club! We can leave now! We can go to Vocal Adrenaline, I'm sure your mum wouldn't mind you joining, I'm pretty sure she would actually love it. We could win Regionals and then you and me can travel around, auditioning for all them Broadway parts you ever dreamed of playing!"
"That's garbage Mr. Schue, are you going to let him speak about us like that!" Puck shouted, rising from his seat.
"No, you're right, Jesse it's unacceptable to speak about people like that, sit down and let's your fellow glee clubbers perform." Mr. Schue scolded him. "Now do we have any volunteers to go next?"
"I will, I will, I will, I will!" Brittany sung as she made her way up to the front.
"Okay Brittany! Show us what you've got!"
"Erm, Mr. Schue, I don't have any pockets and I left my handbag in my locker…"
The rest of the glee club snickered and Santana just looked at her friend in admiration.
"That's okay Brittany, just sing your song."
A/N: Alright! I tried to make Brittany sound quite silly but I'm not very good at coming up with things like that. How do you think I did with the Jesse dialogue? Do you have any song request for Mike, Matt, Santana, Quinn, Mercedes, Tina and Artie? I know what I'm going to do for Finn and Rachel… Please R&R!
