Chapter two!


Tristan stared as Alexa brisquely walked down the hallway towards the Spanish room. Wow, he thought. She's so... different. I mean, what other girl would be able to rope me into auditioning for glee club? He contemplated some song choices, and then decided that he'd have to get Alexa to help him out. He'd talk to her at lunch hour.

He thought about when he first saw her.

Tristan was kissing Sydney in the hallway when he heard some small footprints. He thought nothing of it, until he heard a very feminine voice clear her throat purposefully. He pulled away from Sydney and glanced up to see a startlingly beautiful red head, looking extemely dissaproving at them. He was surprised at how embarassed he was. He could feel the blush rise to his cheeks, and he just stared into her deep sea blue eyes. Sydney looked up to see the girl, and scowled. Syd hated being interupted. Before Sydney had the chance to say something that would have been inappropriate and quite possibly rude, he spoke up.

""Hey. Sorry about that. My name is Tristan, and this is my girlfriend, Sydney." Tristan didn't really know why he had introduced Sydney. Sydney could be a bitch when she wanted, and now looked like one of those times.

"My name's Alexa. I have to get to the office. Its been lovely meeting you both." She said shyly, starting to pass by them. She must have seen the look on Syd's face, cause she said, ""Oh, and Sydney? I really hope we can be friends! I mean, I don't know anybody here, so..." She smiled brightly. She had the most beautiful smile I had ever seen. "Well, I'll see you later!" And she turned and started to walk away.

"Stupid fucking gingers, can't even mind their own business..." Sydney grumbled loudly. He sighed. They had been fighting a ton lately, and he was sick of her bitching about everything. Tristan was about to tell her off when Alexa called out over her shoulder and said, "I heard that. And at least I'm a ginger and not a dumb blond like you."

He burst out laughing, only to get punched in the stomach by Sydney. That was gonna leave a mark.

The bell brought him out of his reverie, and he sighed. He walked towards the cafeteria, hoping that Alexa would want to sit with him and his band mates.

When he got to the cafeteria, got his food, and sat down at his regular table, he was ready to tell the rest of his band that he was trying out for the glee club. He got mixed replies to that. Some were along the lines of "About time!" and others were more like "You're doing WHAT?"

Just as his friends were accepting the fact that he was going to join glee, one of them, Chad, let out a low wolf whistle. "Who's the fox?" He asked.

"Who?" Tristan asked. He was sort of confused. He looked around for Christine, the school slut. That's usually who they were reffering to when they said stuff like that.

"The one by the doors. Looks like she's searching for someone. Has hair as red as a fire truck. Wearing a grey sweater that says "Create Love" on it, with-"

"Oh, that's Alexa. The one that's makeing me join glee." he interjected. They all turned and stared at him. The table got really quiet all of a sudden. "What?"

"Dude. She's hot."

"Yeah, and?"

Chad was about to reply when they heard Alexa's voice behind them.

"Hey Tristan. Mind if I sit with you?" With out waiting for a reply, she plopped down beside him. "So, introduce me to your friends."

"Oh, yeah. Um, guys this is Alexa. She's new. Um, Alexa, this is Chad, Justin, Gabriel, and Kyle. They're my band."

"Nice to meet you all, really. A pleasure. Anyways, I was just wondering if Tristan had any song suggestions for the auditions."

All was silent at the table. Tristan replied, "I don't know what your voice sounds like, so-"

All of a sudden she broke out into song.

I've heard there was a sacred chord that

David played and it pleased the Lord.

But you don't really care for music, do ya?

Well it goes like this:

The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift

The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

She finished singing and said, "How was that?"

The boys were all gawking at her.

Chad sputtered, "I- well- uh- wow." Tristan knew exactly what he meant. Alexa's voice had a certain quality about that made sound like she'd be excellent at punk rock, and she rocked at Hallelujah. He had a feeling that she could sing almost anything.

"Do you have any suggestions?"

"Oh yeah. I've got lots."


Song: Hallelujah (cover) by Kate Voegele. Review? And yes, I updated twice today. I'm on a roll. This story will be more glee-centric after they audition. :)
