Not the Same Chapter 12: I Do, a glee fanfic

We were currently preparing for the wedding. Mr. Schue was marrying Miss Pillsbury and it was kind of going to be on Valentine's Day. You know most people get engaged on Valentine's, not married. I was currently going to bed.

I was at the wedding. I wasn't wearing black so I knew that it was a dream. I looked around the room. This didn't seem right. For starters, it didn't look like the hotel. It looked Ohio State. There was a picture on the wall with the current National Championship team for 2016. Yeah, this wasn't Mr. Schue and Ms. Pillsbury's wedding. Then whose was it? Suddenly the door opened and it was Sam…and Brittany. I thought she was a lesbian.

I ended up taking the stage. Who hires their ex to sing at their wedding?

I was at the top now it's like I'm in the basement
Number one spot now he's finding a replacement
I swear that I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby
And now you aint around baby I can't think
Should've put it down, should've took that ring
I can feel I through the air
See his pretty face, run my fingers through his hair

My love of my life, your shawty, your wife
He left me, I'm tied, cause I knew that just aint right

I was thinking 'bout him, thinking 'bout me
Thinking 'bout us, what we gonna be
Open my eyes, it was only just a dream
So I travelled back down that road
Will he come back, no one knows
I realize that it was only just a dream

If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up
Now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything
If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody, put your hands up
Now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything

I woke up with a sweat. That was weird, but it also told me that I didn't have a lot of time to figure this out. I know that he said that he would wait, but how long can someone really wait? In the meantime, I needed a date for the wedding. I don't think Sam would say yes right now.

The next day at school, I went to talk to Ryder.

"So I need a date for the wedding and Sam and I are kind of on a break." I told him. "I was wondering if you wanted to go with me."

"You mean just as a wedding date or like a real date?" He asked me. I didn't know that there was a difference.

"Does it matter?" I questioned him.

"I guess not." Ryder replied. "Will there be dancing and kissing involved?"

"There will probably be dancing involved, but I can't promise kissing." I stated.

"Okay, I'm in." He replied. I stared at him. "I mean, yes I will go with you."

It was then that Finn met me in the hall. He had a short brunette next to him. I think she was the Rachel that I kept hearing about.

"Charlie, I'd like you to meet Rachel." He introduced.

"I thought that you were amazing in Grease, especially with your untraditional look." Rachel complimented.

"So, not to be rude, but why are we having this conversation?" I wondered, having to get to class.

"I wanted to surprise Mr. Schue with a song in honor of his wedding." Finn replied. "I was wondering if you knew Maroon 5's 'Love Somebody'."

"So me and her with be singing it?" I asked. "And we're going to do this without any sort of practice?"

"Spontaneous musical numbers always work well." Finn explained. I was pretty sure that they didn't. I don't think they ever did. "Rachel was going to take the lead and you would join in later."

"How do we even know that our voices would mesh together?" I questioned.

"I can work with anyone." Rachel responded.

So a little bit later, I was in History when Rachel walked in with a band.

I know you're insides are feeling so hollow
And it's a hard pill for you to swallow
But if I fall for you, I'll never recover
If I fall for you, I'll never be the same

I really wanna love somebody
I really wanna dance the night away
I know we're only halfway there
But you can take me all the way
You can take me all the way
I really wanna touch somebody
I think about you every single day
I know we're only halfway there
But you can take me all the way
You can take me all the way

I don't know where to start, I'm just a little lost
I wanna feel like we're never gonna ever stop
I don't know what to do, I'm right in front of you
Asking you to stay, you should stay, stay with me tonight

That worked a lot better than I thought it would.

"It's nice to see you, Rachel." Mr. Schue declared. "Thank you two for that."

When we got to the wedding, we were sitting with Jake and Marley, which was how I wanted it. Quinn was on my other side, or was it Lucy. Frannie said that she was thinking about going by her first name, and I don't know the answer yet.

"So have you decided on your name yet?" I asked her.

"I'm still deciding, but you can call me Lucy for now and just you." She explained. "I wish you were with Sam."

I was pretty much wishing the same thing, but I didn't want to tell Ryder that. I looked over to Sam and saw that he was sitting with Blaine. At least he didn't bring a date. Our met and we stared for a few seconds before we stopped. We waited for the bride to show up, and waited…and waited, but she never came well this was awkward. I can't believe that she left him at the altar. This was the first time that I've heard of a woman…okay Juliette did it on Nashville, but I didn't know it happened in real life. It was depressing.

It turned out that the reception was still on, despite the act that nothing was being received, or I don't actually know why they call it a reception.

Once we got there, I noticed that Finn had taken the microphone and told the band to play a song.

"So I'm sorry about the wedding." He stated. "I actually planned this before everything went wrong and there's someone special that I wanted to sing this too: Quinn."

Watch my life pass me by in the rearview mirror
Pictures frozen in time are becoming clearer
I don't wanna waste another day
Stuck in the shadows of my mistakes, yeah

Cause I want you and I feel you crawling underneath my skin
Like a hunger, like a burning to find a place I've never been
Now I'm broken and I'm fading, I'm half the man I thought I would be
But you can have what's left of me

Falling faster, barely breathing,
Give me something to believe in
Tell me it's not all in my head

Take what's left of this man
Make me whole once again

Will you take what's left,
Will you take what's left
Take what's left of me
Will you take what's left?
Will you take what's left?
Take what's left of me

He then walked up to her and kissed her and she kissed back. That I couldn't quite believe. They've been broken up for a year and a half and ended badly, twice. How could they still love each other? Maybe if they could be in love, there was hope for me, but I was scared. I was very scared. I went into the hall of the hotel. I had a room with Quinn. Since I was alone, I decided to get the song in my head out.

Putting my defenses up
Cause I don't wanna fall in love
If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack

Never put my love out on the line
Never said yes to the right guy
Never had trouble getting what I want
But when it comes to you, I'm never good enough

When I don't care, I can play him a like Ken doll
Won't wash my hair and make him bounce like a basketball
But you make me wanna act like a girl
Paint my nails and wear high heels
Yes you make me nervous that I just can't hold your hand

You make me grow, but I cover up won't let it show
But I cover up won't let it show
So I'm putting my defenses up
Cause I don't wanna fall in love
If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack
I think I'd have a heart attack
I think I'd have a heart attack

The feelings got lost in my lungs
They're burning I'd rather be numb
And there's no one else to blame
So scared I'll take off in a rut
I'm getting too close to the sun
And I'm bursting into flames

After I was done, I noticed that I wasn't alone. As a matter of fact, it was the last person that I wanted to see me singing that song.

"You know you look beautiful." He told me.

"Don't." I told him.

"I was thinking that maybe I was a little harsh earlier." He replied. "You know we didn't have to break up because we might not be on the same emotional level."

"Sam, it's not fair for you to be in love with me if I don't love you back." I told him before I walked away. I decided to head to my room. I opened the door and was treated to Lucy on top of Finn wearing nothing but her underwear. Oh my god.

"What the fuck?" I asked as they stopped. "You said that we weren't going to have boys in here."

"Well that was before everything happened." Lucy responded. "Can you give us a few minutes?"

Okay, well I just got kicked out of my own room. I went back to the reception hall. I found that Sam was on the dance floor waiting for me. I found out that Ryder with was dancing with the only student from school that had RSVP'd that wasn't in Glee Club. I guess that left me with no choice. I went over to him and we began to dance.

"I have something to say." Sam replied. "You can just listen because I think it's pretty appropriate."

We began to move together and he began to sing.

You can go, you can start all over again
You can try to find a way to make another day go by
You can hide, hold all your feelings inside
You can try to carry on when all you wanna do is cry

And maybe someday we'll figure all this out
Try to put an end to all our doubt
Try to find a way to make things better now
And maybe someday we'll live our lives out loud
We'll be better off somehow, someday

And I don't wanna wait, I just wanna know
I just wanna hear you tell me so
Give it to me straight, tell it to me slow

Cause maybe someday we'll figure all this out
Try to put an end to all our doubt
Try to find a way to make things better now
And maybe someday we'll live our lives out loud
We'll be better off somehow, someday

Well sometimes we don't really notice just how good it can get
So maybe we should start all over, start all over again
Well sometimes we don't really notice just how good it can get
So maybe we should start all over, start all over again

"You know that song is about Rob Thomas's wife coming down with a life-threatening disease, don't you?" I asked him.

"A song can be about more than one thing." He argued. "The point is I don't want to be apart from you. I think we can figure out the rest of this later, but right now, I just want you to be my girlfriend because I like having you as my girlfriend."

That was really sweet. I don't think that I could say no to that. I still had to tell him that I love him, but we had time for that. I guess when the right time came, I would know.

"I have a problem right now." I replied. "Finn and my sister have kind of been making nookie in my room if you know what I mean, and I'm not sure if Finn is going to leave."

"Well Finn was staying with me and I guess that means that I have an extra bed." Sam explained. "You can stay with me."

"Thank you." I replied as I took his hand.

So Charlie and Sam's breakup didn't last long, but they're not quite in love. Also that girl that Ryder was with is going to play a role later in the story. The songs in this chapter are "Just A Dream" by Nelly, "Love Somebody" by Maroon 5, "What's Left of Me" by Nick Lachey, "Heart Attack" by Demi Lovato, and "Someday" by Rob Thomas. Please don't forget to review.
