Sorry again, I meant to update the other day but I got caught up working on my billion's over other Fanfictions =) I'm going to really work on this one to make it super long for you guys.
SARAH-
Finn glared at Rachel as she looked down, afraid to meet his eyes. Well, my day went from good, to bad, to awesome, to awkward, to hilarious, to horrible in the space of an hour. Jeez.
"It was nothing. It's Puckerman." She said.
"You always get defensive at him when he does stuff like that. But you didn't do anything."
"I was accepting a compliment." Rachel shot back.
"You're different Rach, what has hanging around Kurt and Blaine changed your outlook on life."
"I am not different."
"Look at you. Look at what your wearing, I know you have spare clothes in your locker. And you're wearing, this." I stood up.
"I'm going to go to...The...library, and find some songs that I could sing for glee club." I said quickly, gathering my bags.
"Yeah good idea, I'll help you." Cameron said.
"Me too." Damian and Lindsay said.
"Heck, I'll tag along too." Emily said.
"Yeah, I'll help." Rachel said, standing up.
"Rachel, get back here." Finn told her. The five of us all but ran from the Cafeteria, leaving a bickering Finn and Rachel.
"Well that was awkward." Damian said. Looking back, somewhat eagerly.
"I bet Marissa will be pleased." Cameron mumbled to himself.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing." He said quickly, I raised an eyebrow.
"Gosh. This is horrible." Emily said, shaking her head sadly.
"What exactly was it all about. I mean, he was just complementing her?" Lindsay asked.
"Honey, this isn't California. Small-town boys." Emily said.
"Still." Lindsay shrugged.
"Oh hot damn. Eye candy passing through the halls." I gaped. I stared at the curly-haired boy walking through the hall, he seemed un-interested to everybody else as he texted someone.
"QUEER!" A jocked jeered and through a slushy in his face.
"Oh lord." Lindsay cried.
"Language." Cameron said automatically. I shook my head.
"We should see if he's OK." I told them.
"And end up with one of those in your face? No thank you." Emily asked.
"I'm fine with being slushied." Damian said.
"Me too." Lindsay said. I nodded.
"I don't care." I agreed.
"I really don't want to get slushied but I don't believe in leaving someone behind." Cameron spoke up. Emily sighed.
"What the hell. I'll come too." We walked over to where the boy was shaking red slushy from his hair.
"Wow, that is freezing. I new Kurt wasn't joking." He muttered to himself.
"Hey, are you OK?" I asked.
"What? Oh yeah fine. Cold." He said. He grabbed his phone and shook the ice off it.
"What's your name?" Cameron asked.
"I'm Blaine. I'm a transfer."
"Oh cool me too." I laughed. Damian offered a hand.
"Need some help?" He asked.
"No, I'll be fine. I'm looking for my boyfriend though. His name is Kurt. Kurt Hummel."
"Ooh, I know him. He was the one who was shoved into the locker before home-room. He introduced himself to me while I was still in the office. I think he said he had Spanish first up with Rachel and Finn."
"Blaine! I've been looking all over for you." Said a boy who was running daintily down the hall, he skidded to a stop in front of us.
"Hey Emily, nice to see you again." He said, before turning back to Blaine.
"Oh my god, I am sorry you had to get slushied like that. Come on, we'll get you cleaned up before next session." He grabbed the curly-haired boys hand and pulled back down the hall.
"That was short." Lindsay mused. I shook my head.
"It's so sweet they can be so openly out. They looked really in love." I smiled.
"It figures though." Emily said.
"What does?" Cameron asked.
"The hot guy is gay." She explained.
"Or they're dating someone." Damian said, shaking his head.
"Now, I'm sensing your not talking about Blaine." Cameron said.
"Genius." Damian muttered.
"Oooh, Damo has the hots for someone. Do tell." Emily said.
"Well who has he met that's dating someone?" I asked.
"Hmm, Rachel?" Lindsay questioned.
"Yup, she's dating Finn." Emily agreed.
"Marissa?" I added.
"I'm dating her." Cameron put in.
"Who else is there?" Lindsay jumped up and down in anticipation.
"I think that's it." Emily told her.
"I'm gonna put my vote in for Rachel." Lindsay commented.
"Me too." Emily agreed. I thought about it for a moment.
"Me three." I said. Cameron nodded. The four of us turned to look at Damian, he flushed and looked at his feet.
"Don't tell her." He whispered.
"Don't have to." Lindsay said, nodding over Damian's shoulder, I followed her gaze, Rachel was standing there, looking dejected.
"Well...this is awkward...again." I said, shuffling my feet. Cameron looked at his feet.
"He dumped me." Rachel stated. "Again."
"Again? Dios Mio, Honey." Emily said sympathetically.
"Are you...going to be OK?" I asked.
"I'll get over it. It's happened five times before."
"Five?" Lindsay cried.
"Wo-ow." Cameron exaggerated.
"Can I talk to you Damian?" Rachel said.
"You heard didn't you?" Damian asked.
"Yeah."
"Awkward." I sighed.
"Let's actually go to the library this time." Lindsay offered.
"Good idea." Emily whispered.
(time warp)
I held the sheet music to 'Maybe This Time.' I could sing the first bit OK. But I could never hit the last note.
"You should sing it." Cameron told me, sitting next to me.
"I want to."
"Then do it."
"Maybe. What song are you doing?"
"Stop This Train. By John Mayer."
"I love that song. You'd better do it justice. Or I'll hunt you down."
"You don't have to. We'll be in Glee club together. And AP Chemistry..Aaaand, by the looks of it, English and Spanish."
"Still. No, I'm just joking. I wonder where the others are." I peered down the aisle where Lindsay and Emily had left, in search of sheet music. A girl in purple with red hair came walking up it.
"Hey, Marissa's here." I cried. Cameron practically flew from his chair and ran down the aisle running parallel.
"I'll find Emily and Lindsay." He called over his shoulder.
"Were you just talking with Cameron?" Marissa asked.
"Well, yeah. We were talking about what songs we were gonna sing for Glee club. But he just left to find Emily and Lindsay."
"Because he knew I was coming." Marissa mumbled.
"Hey, no that's not true. Cameron loves you. With all his heart." I told her.
"I haven't been very nice to him. I do love him too. I'm just-I'm such a bitch to him. I don't mean too." She sat down on the seat Cameron had just vacated.
"Oh god. He left because of me didn't he? I got angry with him before lunch. Because...I thought he liked you or Rachel. I get so self-conscious about these sorta things. I feel like I'm not good enough for him. And it's true he deserves to be with someone who won't get so angry with him all the time. Someone who really likes him."
"You really like him though don't you?" I asked. Marissa sniffled and I saw a small splash of water drop on the table.
"Hey, why are you crying?" I asked, putting a hand on her shoulder.
"I-I don't. I came to Lima with him just because I wanted to get away from my family. I'm horrible. There's something wrong with me."
"There's not. But you need to march right up to Cameron and tell him."
"Sarah?"
"Yes, Marissa?"
"Can I tell you a secret? I know I haven't know you for long, but no one else knows. But I feel you will understand."
"What is it?"
"I-I-I, don't eat."
"What do you mean?"
"Sarah. I never eat. It's a medical problem. I do it so I can be like those girls you see on the Cheerio's. Perfect, thin. Beautiful."
"Marissa, you are gorgeous. I would kill to be like you."
"Cameron likes you though. Because your different. You're not trying to be like everyone else. You stick out. That's not me."
"Well, you are beautiful. And trust me, everyone knows that. People at this school want beautiful, thin girls. Not outcasts."
"Unfortunately, it's what Cameron wants that is important to me. And at the moment it's not me. Because he heard everything we've been talking about, the past ten minutes." I looked over my shoulder, and of course there was Cameron. Lindsay and Emily peeking around him, mouth's open. I slumped back in my chair.
"Here we go again." I sighed. I pushed back from the table and walked to where Cameron was standing. I grabbed Lindsay's and Emily's hands and dragged them off.
"Come on this is going to be awkward enough for those two without us watching."
"But it could be good. I mean come on. It's Cameron, he's so quiet and thoughtful. What if it's like a dam that's just about to go whoosh?" Emily asked.
"No." I told her.
"Yeah. Come on Em, I gotta practice my song. I wonder if we can sneak into the auditorium..." Lindsay trailed off.
"Oh my gosh yes! But what about the others?" I asked.
"The others are here, kinda." Emily said, pointing behind me. I turned to see Damian with a smile on his face the size of Texas.
"She needs some time. But she said she liked me too. YES!" He cried.
"Shh." The librarian hushed us.
"Sorry." We said unison. The librarian narrowed her eyes and left.
"Really? That's awesome." I gushed.
"What's going on with Marissa and Cameron? She's crying and Cameron looks- I dunno he looks sad, angry and confused."
"They're fighting." I said quietly.
"Over what?" Emily asked.
"I can't tell you. Marissa told me in confidence."
"She's right." Damian agreed. "It's not her secret to tell."
"Wow, you Irish people are very loyal and calm, aren't they?" Emily asked.
"I'd like to think we all are."
"But what about guy on the Simpsons. The one at the School who lives in the shed?" Emily asked.
"That's Willie, he's Scottish." Lindsay corrected her.
"Oh." Emily blushed.
"So where is Rachel?" I asked.
"I think she went to the auditorium. Says she likes to sing when she's upset."
"I think Cameron might need to go to the auditorium then." Lindsay said jerking her head in Damian's direction. Cameron was standing, leant against an aisle.
"This day keeps getting worse." He stated.
"Aw, what happened Cam?" I asked, moving forward.
"What's that you said before about Rachel?"
"She likes to sing about what she's feeling?" Damian offered.
"Yeah, that one. I might go to the Auditorium too. I have a song I wrote a few years back about this sorta thing. Might help me."
"Alright." We said.
"Do you want us to come?" I asked.
"I'm actually gonna stay here and keep looking for a song." Lindsay said.
"Ditto." Emily nodded her head.
"I'll come, I wanted to talk to Rachel again." Damian told us.
"I wanted to practice my song. On stage would be nice." I thought aloud.
"I'm cool with you guys coming along. I shouldn't be alone with my thoughts. Plus me and Rachel together would probably be twice as depressing." Cameron said.
"Let's go then." I grabbed my bad and threw it over my shoulder.
(time warp)
Damian lead us to the Auditorium, he grabbed a door and pushed it open. I took in the rather small room.
"Wow. This Auditorium is way tinier then the one at Carmel."
"It is pretty small." Cameron agreed. I looked around, Rachel was in the middle of the stage, singing her heart out. Even without a microphone her voice carried all the way up through the aisles, and could be heard clear as day.
"It's gonna take a miracle to bring me back ,
And you're the one to blame.
And now I feel like oh you're the reason why I'm thinking
I guess this is what I get for wishful thinking
I should've never let you into my door .
Next time you wanna go on and leave,
I should just let you go on and do it
It's not amusing like I believe."
The three of us walked mutely down the aisle steps.
"She's so good." I commented. Damian and Cameron both nodded. Rachel stopped singing and looked at us.
"Oh, hey guys. What are you doing here?" She acknowledged.
"Well Marissa and Cameron broke up, and Cameron wanted to sing something." Damian explained.
"Oh, two break-ups in one day? This is a horrible first day back at school."
"Tell me about it." Cameron nodded.
"Well where are the others?" Rachel asked
"Emily and Lindsay are still trying to find songs to use for Glee club." I explained.
"Can I get up there?" Cameron asked.
"Sure." Rachel jumped off the stage. Cameron went to the band area and came back out with a guitar. He climbed up the stairs and began to play.
"If love is a feeling then I don't want it
You'll take it and make it into more
But if you want something that really means something
I'll show you what love is really for
And if you want me to say
You don't have to change
I've been waiting patiently
Well love can wait for me
Love can wait for me .
Alright
Come one
We all know what you got
Well you don't know where love is
My heart is losing all it's faith
But there's this sound in my head
I'ts just sayin
Won't you wait for me
Will you wait for me
And if you want me to say
You don't have to change
I've been waiting patiently
We'll love can wait for me
Love can wait for me"
"Woah, you wrote that?" Rachel asked.
"Yep. After me and my first girlfriend broke up."
"But that was really good." I said.
"Thanks." Cameron climbed back down and put the guitar back.
"You could really be helpful to Glee club. We right Original songs for Sectionals, Regionals, Nationals."
"That's where Goolsby got the sudden idea to do Original songs. Oh my god. That stealing, conniving little...Ugh." I threw my hands up in frustration. "Wow, my old show-choir sucked. I can't even believe we came second. Seriously, you guys were so much better. And at least everyone gets to join in. I really think your team should have won. Even after that kiss you and that other guy had."
"Yes, me and Finn. Destroying things for the whole team." Rachel shook her head and sniffled.
"God, I am such a screw up. Yeah, I'm sorry Cameron." She added as Cameron opened his mouth to scold her.
"Don't worry about it." Damian said, inching closer.
"Thanks, Damian, you're too sweet." Rachel smiled. "How did I end up with friends like you?"
"You were nice to us first." Cameron said.
"Aw. This is the part in the movies where we have some slow-motion hug and start crying." I joked.
"I'm gonna start crying." Rachel stated.
"No you won't." Damian smiled and hugged her.
"Group hug, everybody!" I cried and jumped in, Cameron laughed and joined too.
"Too bad Lindsay and Emily aren't here." Rachel said, her voice muffled.
"Yes we are!" Emily cried.
"Do you think we'd miss out on a group hug?" Lindsay added and the pair jumped in.
Nobody saw the gleaming eyes from the Auditorium door.
Aww, cliffhanger, yeah I went there =) Review you guys, I just gave 3000 words.
