Wow! Two favorites/follows in a day! Thanks so much to you two!

Here's some info about this story. In this chapter, Cecilia talks of stage fright. I also have really bad stage fright, that's why I do stage crew. I came up with this story a couple weeks before we started working on this years musical "The Wizard of Oz" in which I Stage Manage. I thought having the idea of a stage crew member join Glee Club would be cool, thus this story was created.

Hope you enjoy!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN GLEE


The next day, Artie asked the other club members if they knew of a Cecilia Bell.

He found out that's she's a junior, in his history and math class, and that she moved to Lima from Connecticut at the end of November. Nobody knows why, but they do know she's quiet and shy.

Artie thought it would be a good idea for her to join Glee Club, so after practice that day and addressing all of the actors, not forgetting to mention to put their props in their proper places, he went to Cecilia.

"Hey, Cecilia." He rolled casually to her.

She was folding some cloths when she turned and smiled at him. "Yes?"

"I was thinking, since you have a nice voice that you should join Glee Club." He suggested hopefully, but frowned when he saw her expression fall.

"Um, that's nice and everything, but I've never sang in front of people before, I have really bad stage fright, that's why I do stage crew." She admitted a bit nervously.

"Oh." He said a bit crestfallen. "Can't you just come and see what it's like? Maybe even try to sing something?"

She thought for a moment. "Okay, I'll come, but I can't guarantee that I'll sing."

He smiled. "Great, meet in the Choir room directly after school." She nodded and the two went their separate ways.

The next day, after school, Cecilia walked into the choir room, she scanned the room at all the faces in the room until her eyes fell upon the familiar glasses boy. He waved to her and she sat next to him.

"So glad you came." He smiled. "I told Mr. Schue about you and he is okay with you watching today." She nodded.

Mr. Schue came into the room and with the clap of his hands, he stepped into the center. "Hello, everyone, today we have a guest with us, Cecilia Bell." He pointed to her, who looked around, waving nervously. "She's going to see what we do here, so let's give her a show."

Rachel immediately stood and, with the help of the girls, preformed 'Poker Face' by Lady Gaga. After that, all the guys sang 'It's My Life" by Bon Jovi.

"What did you think of that?" Mr. Schue asked.

"That was simply amazing. You guys are really good." She complemented with a smile.

"Now, you should sing something." Mercedes encouraged.

Her heart sunk. "Um..."

"Yeah, let's see what you got." Santana challenged, her words laced with poison.

"You don't have to." Artie whispered when he notice her body tense.

She shook her head. "I'll try." She stood up and told the piano player the song and then stood in the center. She looked at everyone and instantly paled. When the music started playing, she moved her mouth, but nothing came out. The music stopped and everyone looked at her expectantly. She looked a everyone with a scared expression.

Her eyes started to well as she looked to Artie. "I'm sorry, I can't do it." And then ran out of the room.

"Well, that was...interesting." Mike raised his eyebrows.

"She said she had stage fright, but I didn't think it was that bad." Artie admitted.

"Well, she made the effort, and who knows, maybe she'll come around." Mr. Schue said before drawing the meeting to an end.
