"I'm NOT a street rat..."
-Aladdin
Rachel clutched the books to her chest and sighed. She hated doing this dance every day, but she hated getting slushied even worse. Taking a deep breath, she pulled open the door to the school and marched in. Her first obstacle was right ahead of her. Football players. They grinned as she stepped through the doors and Rachel quickly began the long practiced choreography of avoiding the bullies.
Gotta keep
One jump ahead of the bullies
One swing ahead of the slush
I hate only what I can't avoid
( That's Everything! )
Rachel ducked and weaved through the crowd as she sang out. She was trailed by the football players and saw as they flagged down a couple of Cheerios to help try to corral her. They were persistent this morning.
One jump ahead of the slushies
That's all, and that's no joke
These guys won't be happy til i'm soaked
The Cheerios and football players joined in on the song as Rachel danced out of the way of one slushee.
Loser! Glee geek! Diva! Take that!
Rachel dodged down a corridor and saw the classroom doors were all closed. She had no place to go. She turned back and faced a wall of Cheerios and Jocks. Most had cups in their hands.
Just a little slack, guys
The bullies grinned and chanted in time.
Douse her good, cause she's a freak, guys
The group reared back cups and were about to fling them when she spied a door opening and jumped as she sang.
I can take a hint, gotta face the facts
You're my only friends, you two!
The jocks looked at each other as their slushee missed the mark.
Who?
Rachel smiled at Kurt, Blaine and Mercedes as they slammed the door behind her. Kurt gestured to another door across the room and the four booked for it, hoping to beat the pack of slushee toting Cheerios who had been seen running to the other hall as the jocks looked around confused.
Kurt and Mercede's sang as Blaine reached for the door.
Oh it's sad that Rachel is a target
She's become a one-girl rise in crime
Santana opened the door and shook her head, gesturing out into the hallway as she sang.
I'd run while the coast is clear, now hobbit.
Rachel didn't even scowl at the latina's smirk as she dashed by.
Gotta get to Glee, hopefully slushee free
Tell you all about it when I got the time!
She dashed into the hall and started running to the choir room just as the Cheerio's turned the corner.
One jump ahead of the slowpokes
One skip ahead of my doom
Next time gonna use a nom de plume
One jump ahead of the hitmen
One hit ahead of the flock
I think I'll take a stroll around the block
Rachel turned the corner and saw the room at the end of the corridor. She just might make it. But, the Cheerio's were gaining. Today would be the twelfth day the had missed slushing her. They pressed harder.
Stop, geek! Manhands! Tranny! Yentel!
Rachel dodged one slushee as the full cup sailed by, splashing against a locker.
One jump ahead of the slushies
She dodged a second spray, but a poor freshman didn't quite move in time.
(Rachel!)
Rachel jumped over the outstretched foot of a basketball player.
One hop ahead of the hump
She ducked under the arm of a hockey player trying to grab her.
(Diva Brat!)
Rachel hopped over a small pool of slushee that was no doubt from another target earlier. She almost missed it and jumped at the last second.
One trick ahead of disaster
The classroom was closer and she was almost safe.
(Loser!)
She jumped out of the way of one slushee coming from in front of her. The jocks had caught up. But she was fueled by the goal right in sight.
They're quick, but I'm much faster
A Cheerio launched a cup at her as she neared the door, a last desperate attempt to score a hit on her.
(Take that!)
Rachel smiled as the slushee missed her and she was a few feet from the door. She took the last few strides with a big smile on her face and a quick glance over her shoulder.
Here goes, better throw my hand in
Wish me happy landin'
All I gotta do is jump
Rachel jumped through the door and closed it quickly, hearing the splashing of the shushees against the wood. She made it another morning. Now, if only she could make it through lunch, then after school, then after Glee. She was just happy that Mr. Shue wanted to meet this morning. Her first class was actually upstairs, and she didn't want to think about trying to dodge the group of very eager jocks and Cheerios over two stories of the school.
A big smile on her face, Rachel walked up to the front row and set her bag down, shook out her hair and sat down. She didn't pay any attention to half of the Glee club staring at her with expressions ranging from amusement to a little bit of pride.
One set of eyes lingered on the brunette and Quinn let out a small breath she hadn't realized that she had been holding. She felt the corners of her mouth turn up in a small smile as Rachel sat down, panting slightly from her running. She wasn't sure when it started, but she was now silently cheering for Rachel every day she went slushee free. She didn't dwell on her thoughts...and she certainly didn't want to think what it meant.
