Will and Emma both were completely frozen. They didn't know what to say or do. Terri was the first to break the silence.
"I can see that you two are enjoying yourselves."
With that comment, Will decided to fight back.
"What are you even doing here, Terri?"
"Well, in case you don't remember William I was the school nurse, which makes me certified to come to this event. Or am I such a distant memory that you don't even remember?"
"No…I remember." He and Terri stared in silence, then Will decided to change topics. "Ken, how are you?"
"Don't talk to me Schuester," Ken said in an angry tone. "Or it'll be the last thing that comes out of your mouth."
There was then a moment of silence, that seemed to last forever.
"Well I hope you enjoy the rest of the party," Terri said with a sly smile.
They then turned around to leave. Ken then turned around and said,
"Catch you later Eminem."
Once Ken and Terri were out of their sight, Emma released the breath she had been holding since the moment she saw Ken. She then broke down into tears falling into Will's arms.
"Shhh…shhh," Will whispered as he calmed Emma. "It's going to be ok."
"Oh Will. It was even worse than I had imagined. Gosh, I think we should just go home."
"No Emma. We can't back down, that's a sign of weakness. We have to face them."
Emma wiped her eyes and took a deep breath.
"You're right Will. Let's show them."
Will smiled and took Emma by the hand and they confidently walked back into the gym. They came on to the dance floor, and were a couple of feet from Ken and Terri.
"Will, we're kind of close," Emma said in panic.
"I know," Will smiled.
They danced to the music ignoring Ken and Terri and just focusing on the person they loved.
"Ready to see them flip out," Will whispered.
"Sure," Emma replied confused.
"Wrap your arms around my neck and I'll do the rest."
Emma smiled as she did as she was told. The song ended and Will whirled Emma into a dip and kissed her right in front of Ken and Terri! As they broke apart, they subtly looked up to see that they had turned their backs on them.
"That was a rush," Emma gasped.
"And also I must say Mission: Accomplished."
"I'm going to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back."
Emma couldn't stop smiling as she made her way to the bathroom. Even in the worst case scenario, Will was able to turn it into a great "in your face" moment. Her happiness was interrupted by a hand grabbing her into an empty classroom.
"K…Ken. T…Terri."
"Hello Eminem," Ken said. "You didn't think we were done for the night were you?"
"Because it's only just begun, sweetheart," Terri added.
"Listen I want Schuester out of your house by tomorrow. Kick him out, break his heart, and leave him on the front steps."
Emma was speechless.
"And what makes you think I'll agree to that."
Ken and Terri smiled.
"Because if you don't someone's going to get hurt," Ken said slyly. "And Emma I know where you live."
"Then, Will is going to be so heartbroken, he'll have to come back to me," Terri stated.
"Now go back to your little dance and have a good night," Ken said as he pushed Emma out of the classroom.
Emma was on the verge of tears. She knew if she was going to keep Will safe, she would have to kick him out. That just broke her heart. She took a deep breath and made her way into the gym with a fake smile.
"Hey I was wondering when you were going to come back," Will said. "I missed you."
Emma just looked into his eyes. How could she break his heart? Just then, Because You Loved Me came on. Will took Emma into his arms, and danced. Emma laid her head on to his chest. Right now, at this very moment Will was hers. She may not be tomorrow, but she took it in every minute of it.
