Hey guys! Is anyone else tired of this hiatus? I want my Glee back, baby! :P Anyways, here is a new chapter for you guys! Thanks for all the reads and reviews, it means so much!

Melody swallowed the huge lump that rested in her throat. She hadn't been this nervous…in well, forever. She clasped her sweaty palms together, her stomach growing new knots every moment. "

Mel, you're going to do fine," Lola, her best friend in the world, said as she tried to comfort her.

"Yeah, just remember not to mess up because we're all counting on you to win this," Reed, a cocky football player that only had joined glee club to 'please the women,' said to the nervous girl. Melody stared up at him and began to shake slightly.

"Not helping," Jackie, a short and slightly plump girl with blond curls, said as she slapped Reed's shoulder.

"I think that I'm gonna throw up," Melody commented, as she placed a hand on her stomach and began to take in deep breaths. "I don't know if I can do this…maybe we should just forget this whole thing. How about we just skip, huh?" She began to stand, but was pushed down by Valarie, a tall Hispanic girl who was also a Cheerio. "Okay, look here, Judy Garland, I didn't join this stupid club for you to back out at the very last minute. You're going to go out there and perform that song even if I have to staple your feet to the ground. Got it?" Her last words had venom in them and Melody began to nod her head quickly.

All the other members of the club sat in the green room awaiting their call to the stage. Melody wondered where her father was at a time like this? Wasn't he supposed to be the one to help her through this? Melody closed her eyes as the lights began to flash in the room, signalling that it was time for their performance.

Kurt waited in the performance hall's lobby area for Blaine. You could say he was nervous, not only for his reunion with his only daughter, but also to see Melody perform for the first time in his life. Had Blaine done a good job in raising her in the arts? God, please tell him that she knew more than Katy Perry and Pink. He shook his head and let out a slight sigh. He knew for a fact that he would have spoiled her rotten in art programs. Singing lessons, piano sessions, dance recitals, she would've been the next Rachel Berry. (Only with way better fashion sense.)

Kurt giggled to himself and then almost felt his face drop when he realized that he was too late. Blaine had raised his little girl and he had left her there without even a hug goodbye.

"You came!" Blaine called as he approached his ex.

"Just like I said I would," Kurt replied with a slight grin.

"Well, we better get inside. The competition's gonna start in any minute," Blaine said as he and Kurt began to walk inside.

"Melody nervous?" Kurt asked as they filed into an aisle and took their seats on the red velvet.

"I would assume so. She wouldn't speak to me the whole car ride here," Blaine explained.

"Well if it's her first solo, I can understand. You remember how I was," Kurt said as he rose his eyebrows slightly. Blaine let out a slight laugh and then took in a slight breath.

"Yeah, and then you turned out to be amazing..." Blaine replied as the two locked eyes with each other.

Silence took over for a moment and then finally Kurt smiled and took in a breath.

"Well, let's just hope Melody has my luck."

"Oh..ummm, definitely," Blaine replied as they announcer began to call out the first performance. Kurt faced forward towards the stage as did Blaine, keeping Kurt in the corner of his eye.

The first performance was done by a group called "The Killers." They were a group of well..gothic kids singing heavy metal songs.

"How did they qualify for this again?" Kurt asked as he and Blaine watched the group leave the stage.

"Beats me," Blaine replied with a shrug.

"And now, from William McKinley! The New Directions!" the announcer called over the speaker. Everyone began to clap as the curtain began to rise. The hall grew quiet as shorter girl with shoulder-length hair walked onto the stage.

"Melody," Kurt whispered under his breath as he watched her take her place at the microphone. Blaine looked over to Kurt and gave him a firm nod. Kurt faced towards the stage again, his eyes never leaving the petite girl. She wore a white dress with a turquoise sash around her waist. Her shoes were silver flats that had small bows on the toes. Her hair was slightly curled and her blue eyes could've been seen from a mile away. Kurt watched the girl intensely as she took in a nervous breath and then looked over to the band.

The band began to play a slow beat, as she took in a small breath and closed her eyes.

When I find myself in times of trouble

Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

She slowly opened her eyes and stared across the audience. Her body eased as she saw her father watching her in the crowd, giving her thumbs up. She took in another breath and then continued on.

And in my hour of darkness

She is standing right in front of me

Speaking words of wisdom,

let it it be, let it it be, let it be.

She stood in silence for a moment, trying to hold out the dramatics of the song. As she sang the next line, it almost came across as a slight whisper.

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

As she sang the song, Kurt couldn't help but feel a few tears run down his cheeks. She was magnificent. Extraordinary, more like it. She was theatrical, but at the same time, posed and professional.

As she came closer to the end, Kurt looked over to Blaine. He too stared at their daughter in absolute awe.

Let it be, let it it be,

yeah let it will be an answer,

let it be.

Melody grew a tear or two as she sang, mostly because she couldn't believe that she was brave enough to do this.

Let it be, let it it be,

let it words of wisdom, let it be.

She gave the audience one last stare as she held out the last line of the song.

Let it be…

The hall was silent until everyone arose to their feet and cheered for the girl. She began to blush and duck her head as they did so.

The New Directions ran off the stage after their group performance of 'Hey Jude.' Melody was the last one off the stage as they group ran backstage.

"We so are gonna win this," Lola said to her as they walked to the doors that led to the lobby area.

"I was so nervous," Melody said, as the girls paused at the doors that led to the performance hall. Lola gave her an eye roll and a slight nod.

"Okay, girl, you were AMAZING. You're probably the reason that we'll win this whole thing."

Melody giggled as the girls walked into the hall together. They filed into a row of seats in the very last row, watching the final performance.

All of the competitors stood on the stage, awaiting judgement. Melody grasped onto her father's hand tightly as they awaited the winning team's name to be called. He gave her a squeeze back as a burly man walked onto the stage. Melody recognized the man from seeing him in a few commercials, she believed he sold instruments or something in the area. He held in his hand the envelope that contained the first place winners.

"In third place…we have….The Killers!" The man said, as the audience gave a slight clap. The gothic team exited from the stage with their small third place trophy and the applause ceased.

"And now, in first place…" The man began to open the letter and silence grew in the hall.

Melody looked intensely at the man as he pulled out the slip of paper. He gave a smile to the audience and then screamed out the choir's name.

"THE NEW DIRECTIONS! You're moving onto the regional's competition!"

The audience rose up again and clapped loudly for the performers. Melody and Blaine squeezed each other as the man handed the group their trophy.

As the day settled down and everyone had been congratulated, Blaine grasped onto Melody's hand and began to walk her over to a tall, brunette haired man. She walked by his side in absolute confusion. Who was this man, anyways? And why did her father look so nervous as they walked over to him.

"Who is this?" Melody asked as she was stopped right in front of him. Blaine looked from the man to Melody and then took in a breath.

"Mel, this is Kurt…your biological father."

Oooh! Drama! Hahaha, well I hope you all liked it. As for the New Directions, I am not going to spend too much time on them in this story! I wanna really focus on Melody on her own! :-)

I hope you liked it! Please review if you can!
