Shaken up due to the events of the last few days, the group cautiously filed in to the choir room, the memories of two nights ago flooding back like a tidal wave. The way Jenna leant against the callback list, sobbing, hands on her head. How everyone hugged her like they'd never let her go. The look on Jenna's face as she left and her shadow faded till there was nothing left of her but a memory.
"Ugh, I hate this." Emily groaned, slouching down into her seat. Cindy sat beside her, , putting a supportive hand on her shoulder.
"I know, but you're still here." She said, trying to be upbeat but failing; she just felt she wwas dampening everyone else's mood. She liked Max, but when she was in Emily's current position the week before, she didn't feel half as guilty or upset as Emily did now, and that scared her.
"That's the problem, I mean... we all expected Jenna to go all the way, and now..." Emily trailed off, resting her head on her palm. Cindy sighed and wrapped her up in a big hug before settling down with the rest of the group, quietly engaging in their conversation about choreography for their homework assignment. Eventually, the choir room door slid open and Robert strode into the room, slipping his glasses onto the bridge of his nose.
"Morning everyone, and welcome to Fearlessness. Let's get to it. Your mentor this week is someone who knows a thing or two about this theme, and portrays it on, and off screen." They heard heels clicking on the wooden planks outside. Then the handle begins to turn, revealing the perfect mentor for fearlessness week.
"So, this is obviously the beautiful Naya Rivera who plays the Fierce Santana Lopez on glee" Naya smiled at the group, who were all in awe, looking her up and down in the tight-fitted laced black dress that she wore, hugging her skin and stopping half way up her thigh. She wears laced black shoes, with her hair falling around her face. Ace and West's mouths drop as they stare like little drooling dogs.
"Fearlessness is about not caring about other people's attitudes towards you and being true to yourself. But it's also... about accepting challenges. And Robert has a confession to make..." Naya beams and turns to Robert, who looks slightly sly.
"Yes, I do have a confession. I didn't tell you a twist in this weeks homework. It will be... a solo." That's when Ace and West's mouths hit the floor with a BANG.
"Who's going first?" Penny asks, scanning the group, trying to decide whether to volunteer. West and Ace jump to their feet and being having a slappy fight to choose who's going first, making the group giggle. In the end, West stumbles to the middle of the floor. Everyone watches as he waits for the music to start...
After Ace and Penny, Pierce gets to his feet. He walks to the middle of the floor, dragging his chair behind him.
"I'm tired." He states matter of factly to respond to the questioning looks he receives from the group. He clicks his fingers and begins shaking his hips, letting his full diva flow. Jaia smiles, and laughs as he gets more and more into the song, with a strange sexiness that appeals to the girl. When the song ends, the group woop and cheer at him and he feels infinite.
"Right Jae, you're up." He orders, trying to drag the girl to her feet. She giggles and kicks, pulling faces, trying to stay in her seat. In the end, Ollie gets to his feet with a sigh and starts, to everyone's suprise. After him, Jack takes his turn, then Emily, then Cindy. Chesney then gets to her feet, hands shaking with nerves. Then, when the music starts, she begins, hands clasped tightly around the mic, sweat making it hard to hold.
Here we go again.
Jaia is the last to perform. She gets to her feet, heels digging into the carpet. She smooths down the skin-tight red skirt on her red dress and puts her back to the group, pointing in the direction of the music.
"Hit it"
