I should hear more chanting going on for this story! This chapter's going to be in Mr. James Diamond's POV, so I hope you like this chapter.

After 3 days at Lima, and one night of hearing Carlos flirt and fight with Micaela, we've already gotten used to the place. We have new relationships, and I was ready for another day of hanging out with Rachel. I know there are a lot of cliques here, Rachel's in the loser side, but I want to be on the popular one. I'm meant to be "The Face" so I had to make things work. "James! Come on! We're going to be late!" I could hear Carlos call after me. I just groaned, grabbed my jacket and lucky comb, then did a quick jog to my friends. "What took you so long?" He asked me.

"Well, I gotta look good," Words finally spilled out of my mouth. I saw them roll their eyes as Logan got in the car to drive us to school. "Where's Micaela?" I curiously asked.

"Mike picked her up an hour ago." Zee said.

"And he is dee-li-cious." Kiana parted out the words, not minding if Artie would care.

We arrived at the school, and I saw Rachel at the doors, with her arms open and ready to hug me. "Hi James!" She yelled as I came to her. "Are you ready for my popularity analysis 101?"

"What's that?" I asked confused.

"I do this every week of the year. I try to be on the top of the pyramid like Quinn, and be like a queen bee. Come on," She took my hands and led me to the hallway. "Okay, so first in becoming popular is your stance." She showed me how to stand while I just watched her. Wow. And I thought I had swagger- not to be mean or anything.

I didn't want to be offensive the the words just came out of nowhere, "Shouldn't the wardrobe change too?" I asked, giving a huge hint about her clothes.

"Oh yeah!" She babbled on and led me to her locker. I saw her pull out a dress that looked like it could be from the 60's. It had dark polka dots and it was light blue. "So, what do you think?" She asked.

"That's great!" I said.

"And I have an outfit for you. You go to the bathroom and change and our reign of popularity will begin." She smiled.

More like 60's reign. I really like Rachel, but her style is cramping mine. But who cares, I look good in any outfit. I was in the bathroom, done changing, now I was admiring myself in the mirror. "Looking ood James." I pointed at myself in the mirror. I was wearing a vest, with a low cut white T-shirt, and some jeans that probably were imported from Texas. I still looked great.

"What the hell, James?" A voice startled me. "What are you wearing?"

"Oh, hey Kendall!" I smiled. "I'm dressed for my occasion thing with Rachel."

"Oh stupidity? And humiliation?"

"Look, I hate it too. I'm trying to make her happy, and make her feel special." I said. I just walked out of the bathroom, and everyone suddenly gave me a glance saying, "you're stupid, James." I just stayed positive and replied back, "Don't be jealous. We're all stupid here."

"You ready?" Rachel started to walk beside me.

"Yep, I'm ready for my-"

A bright, cold slushie hit us with surprise. "Losers!" I wiped the slushie off my face with my sleeve.

"Come with me." She took my hand and led me to the girls bathroom. "Those assholes never get the point of being us." She continued. "Sit here." I sat down as she soaked up a warm cloth and dabbed my forehead. "We've been treated like crap for the past 2 years."

"But you guys have won stuff. Like awards in competition, how could you not be near the top of the pyramid?"

"Trust me, Diamond. It's way harder than what you guys are going through." I looked through the corner of my eye, and Nina came in. "I've only been here for a month, but I've already realized its hard to live in this school." She washed her hands. "And why are you guys dressed like that? Wait 'til Santana sees you, she's going to have a load of comments for you."

After the bell rang, we headed to the choir room. "Well if it isn't and Mr. Sexy and Mrs. Old-School." Santana crossed her arms and talked to us. "What are you wearing, it looks like Hannah Montana threw up all over you then Nick Jonas licked it all up."

Rachel's face was disgusted with complete awe, "I made these outfits."

"Explains why it screams Queen Elizabeth to me." She rolled her eyes.

"You know what, Santana? You have to-"

"Girls! Stop fighting. Santana you have to deal with them for the week." stopped them. I didn't know how harsh it could get around here. But it seemed like it could be pretty bad.

"Anybody miss me?" A voice came from behind the door.

"Jesse?" New Directions asked in surprise.

Cliffhanger, I know. But what did you think? Good, bad, okay? Tell me your thoughts! I'd like to know!
