I woke up in an amazing mood. Today was the day when the Glee Club list would be posted out. I jumped out of bed, got dressed quickly and went down stairs for breakfast.
"Good morning my beautiful family" I said cheerfully.
"Uhh what's so great about it Emma? It's raining outside", Annabelle grumbled.
"Because today's the day when I find out If I made it into Glee Club" I explained.
"Emma of course you'll get in! They're always looking for new losers" Luke said in a cocky tone.
I grabbed a banana and whacked him with it.
"Ow what was that for?!" Luke yelled.
"For teasing me, u deserved that" I smiled.
"Kids calm down and stop hitting each other with fruit" said Mum as she took the banana off me.
"Besides Emma will get in because she's TALENTED Luke" said Mum as she raised her voice.
"Thanks Mummy" I said.
The bus horn tooted, I grabbed the banana off Mum so I could eat it at school later on.
I hopped on the bus in my usual spot next to Marley and behind Jake and Ryder.
"Hey guys are you excited about today?" I asked them.
"Oh yes totally I'm super pumped" said Ryder and Jake in unison.
"Me too I'm so happy!" smiled Marley.
We all arrived at school and walked briskly to the notice board. The list was already posted and looked like this.
Glee Club 'New Directions' 2012-2013
Artie Abrams
Wade 'Unique' Adams
Blaine Anderson
Tina Cohen-Chang
Sam Evans
Rory Flanagan
Joe Hart
Ryder Lynn
Sugar Motta
Jake Puckerman
Brittany S Pierce
Emma Reynolds
Marley Rose
Kitty Wilde
We all made Glee Club and we all high fived each other. I also had a quick glance at Volleyball team and found out that I had made the team. In 4th period we all went to the Choir Room to our very first Glee meeting. I walked in and sat next to Marley and across from Ryder who sat there smiling at me cheekily. Mr Schue walked in and we all cheered.
"Hey guys welcome to Glee Club 2012!" he said loudly.
"Ok guys, before we get started we have 6 new members this year. We have Wade 'Unique', Ryder, Jake, Marley, Kitty and Emma". We all stood up as he introduced us and then quickly sat down.
" Ok thanks guys. Original members stand up so the newbies can meet you" said Mr Schue.
"Hi guys I'm Blaine" the guy with the bow tie said, (he seemed kinda gay but I wasn't one to judge)
"Hey I'm Tina" said the short Asian girl.
"Hi I'm Sam, Sam I am" Sam said as I rolled my eyes.
"Hello I'm Rory and I'm from Ireland" said the cute Irish boy.
"Hi I'm Joe some people call me Teen Jesus as I'm Cristian and I kinda look like him" said the boy with dreadlocks.
"Hi I'm Sugar Motta, sometimes I'm sweet sometimes I'm sour" said the rich girl winking, (she seemed kinda snobby to me)
"Hi I'm Brittany S Pierce because it sounds like Britney Spears, also Kitty seeing how you seem like a cat fan because your name is Kitty, you should meet my cat Lord Tubbington, but I swear he's been eating my crayons because his poops look like rainbows" said the ditzy blonde Cheerio.
"Umm...Ok Brittany, we didn't really need to know that but thanks" said a very uncomfortable Mr Schue.
"Hi I'm Artie, and as you can see I'm not standing like the rest of the group because obviously I can't stand" said the boy in the wheelchair as we all started laughing.
"Ok thanks guys. Now this week's assignment is 'Duets'" announced Mr Schue, as he wrote it on the board.
"Now a duet is a song that is sung by two people, so pick a partner and sing a song. Also the winning duo will win dinner for 2 at 'Breadsticks'" announced Mr Schue.
Everyone was buzzing with excitement as I just sat there confused as to what 'Breadsticks' was.
"What's up Emma you don't seem impressed?" questioned Mr Schue.
"Oh no, don't get me wrong Mr Schue I'm excited, but I just wanted to know what 'Breadsticks' was". I asked curiously.
"Oh! 'Breadsticks' is the Italian restaurant downtown" Mr Schue said as he answered my question.
"Ok guys listen up, I will be picking the partners this time, so the partners will be...
Artie and Blaine
Tina and Brittany
Joe and Sugar
Marley and Jake
Kitty and Ryder
Rory and Unique
Sam and Emma
When Mr Schue announced the partners, Sam couldn't stop smiling at me and Ryder looked a little jealous.
"Ok so guys, go home to practise and we will be performing them. The first group to go up tomorrow will be Artie and Blaine and then Tina and Brittany, so get cracking" said Mr Schue.
I was waking back to my locker when Sam approached me.
"Oh hey Emma, wanna come to my house after school to practise our song?"
"Oh yeah sure thing, I just have to go to volleyball practice, but I will meet u after then" I replied.
"Ok meet me In the parking lot, it's the silver car with the orange fluffy dice, you can't miss it" Sam told me.
I laughed and replied with "Ok Sam see you then"
After volleyball practise, I met with Sam in the parking lot. He was standing there with a goofy smile on his face.
"Ready Emma?" He asked.
We arrived at Sam's house where his Mum was making cookies.
"Hey Mom I'm home and I've brought company" Sam yelled.
"Hi Sam nice to see you and who may this be?" his Mum asked.
"I'm Emma, it's a pleasure to meet you Mrs Evans" I said as I held my hand out for her to shake it.
"Oh what beautiful manners, and please call me Jenny" said Sam's Mum.
"Ok well Mom, we are going up stairs to do our Glee Club assignment" said Sam abruptly.
"Ok kids, call me if you need anything, oh and Emma you're welcome over here anytime" said Jenny.
"Thanks Mrs Evans umm.. I mean Jenny" I said quickly.
It had been an hour since we were thinking of ideas.
"Ugh this is insanity, we'll never think of anything!" I complained.
"What about 'No Air' by Jordin Sparks and Chris Brown?" asked Sam.
"No we already disagreed on that one" I moaned.
"Oh I know! How about 'Somethin Stupid' by Nancy and Frank Sinatra?" asked Sam.
"Mmm that ones not quite right either" I replied.
"Hey we both love Country" I beamed.
"Yeah of course" Sam said confused.
"Well how about we sing 'Everything Has Changed' by Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift?" I
asked.
"Yes that's perfect! It has a bit of a Country vibe" Sam got excited.
We high fived each other and got to work on our song. A few days later we went to Glee Club and sat down on stools as Sam plugged in his guitar and began to play.
[Emma]
All I knew this morning when I woke
Is I know something now, know something now I didn't before.
And all I've seen since eighteen hours ago
Is green eyes and freckles and your smile
In the back of my mind making me feel like
[Emma]
I just wanna know you better, know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you better, know you better, know you better now
[Both]
I just wanna know you better, know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you, know you, know you
[Both]
'Cause all I know is we said, "Hello."
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name
Everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
[Sam]
And all my walls stood tall painted blue
And I'll take them down, take them down and open up the door for you
[Emma]
And all I feel in my stomach is butterflies
The beautiful kind, making up for lost time,
taking flight, making me feel like
[Both]
I just wanna know you better, know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you better, know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you better, know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you, know you, know you
[Both]
'Cause all I know is we said, "Hello."
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name
Everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
And you'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
[Bridge]
Come back and tell me why
I'm feeling like I've missed you all this time, oh, oh, oh.
And meet me there tonight
And let me know that it's not all in my mind.
[Emma]
I just wanna know you better, know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you, know you, know you
[Both]
All I know is we said, "Hello."
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name
Everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
[Emma]
All I know is we said, "Hello."
So dust off your highest hopes
All I know is pouring rain and everything has changed
All I know is a new found grace
All my days I'll know your face
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
"Wow guys I think we all know who our winners are... Sam and Emma!" screamed Mr Schue.
Sam and I hugged each other as everyone cheered. But from the corner of my eye I saw one very jealous person, and that was... Ryder.
