"So, what's on the agenda for today?" Wes asked shuffling some papers, "okay…once again, we will not be doing 'Sexy and I Know it'." He shot a glare at Nick and Jeff, "that song is a disgrace to music."

"Damn!"

"Moving on. In the recent outcome of the fall gathering, I must say that Jenna has saved our…tailfeathers? Okay, who wrote this?" Wes asked.

"Well I thought it could be something bird related!" David said.

"It was kind of funny," Thad added.

"I'm hysterical. So I was going to put a motion that we ban her, but she kind of did a nice thing. So instead, I will welcome a new addition to the Warblers, Finn Kelpo." The Warblers applauded as a tall, handsome young man with light brown hair stood up.

"Thank you. I look forward to harmonizing with all of you," he said sitting back down.

"Okay…next up we will be discussing song selection for our next impromptu performance."


"So Finn, where did you come from?" Blaine asked handing him a coffee.

"I came from the Pacific," Finn answered.

"Like California?" Jeff asked. Finn nodded.

"Something like that."

"What did you do there?" Nick asked.

"I did a lot of swimming, I practically live in water," Finn answered. Jeff had a suspicious look on his face.

"But on land, I did a lot of sports."

"That's cool. What kind of—oh no," Blaine said.

"What happened?" David asked.

"Jenna walked in…but with a girl I don't know."

"That is bad," Nick said.

"Yeah, the girl could be a serial killer," Jeff added. Nick shook his head.

"No, she's going to hit on Finn," Blaine said, "it's a normal thing. Plus you are a very attractive boy."

"Thank you?"

Jenna walked over, "oh hey guys! I want you to meet my new friend, Jess."

"Hi," Jess said.

"Jenna, Jess, we would like you to meet Finn, a new Warbler."

"Well hello," Jenna said sitting next to Finn (knocking Wes out of his chair in the process), "I'm Jennifer Marie Nicole Anderson. But you can call me Jenna."

"Hi."

Jeff shook his head and turned around to face Jess.

"So, why are you friends with Jenna?"
"She's so nice," Jess said.

"Alright," he said, "Listen, so I don't get confused, can I call you something else? We already have a Jess."

"Well my middle name begins with a 'J', and some people call me Jessie J," Jess said.

"Like the singer?" Jeff asked and she nodded, "I love her! And I love that name. So now you are Jessie J."

"Thanks…umm…"

"Jeff."

"Cute name. I'll see you around?"

"Definitely."

"Well that went well," Jenna said walking over to them, "I give the boy a compliment, and he starts wheezing and drinking water like a mad man!"

"Oh did he now?" Jeff asked.

"Yeah. Anyway, let's go get our coffee," Jenna said, "Bye Blondie."

"Bye Satan."


Blaine sat down at his desk and opened up his notebook and began taking notes. A rolled up piece of paper landed on his desk. He looked around and noticed Jeff.

"Read it!" he whispered. Blaine rolled his eyes and read the scribbles on the paper.

I need to talk to you

Urgent.

From Agent 6

Aka Jeff Sterling

But don't tell anyone it's me!

Blaine took a deep breath and scribbled back.

Fine.

By the way, if this didn't land on my desk, the world would know you were agent 6 you idiot!

After history, Blaine and Jeff met outside of the classroom.

"So what is this about?" Blaine asked.

"Finn. Have you noticed anything…suspicious about him?"

"No."

"Oh. Enjoy your day," Jeff said patting his shoulder. He walked down a hall and ran into Jenna.

"Hey Jeff! How's it with you and Jess?" she asked.

"Good. Wait, why are you here?"

"Blaine told me he left something in his dorm, so he gave me his key. Also, Jessie J was freaking out because she didn't give you her number," Jenna said handing Jeff a piece of paper.

"Thanks. I need to talk to you about something," he said.

"What?"

"It's about Finn…"

"Has he decided to call me?"

"No," Jeff said.

"Damn!"

"I was going to tell the others about this. But they wouldn't have believed me," Jeff said adjusting the books in his hand.

"What makes you think I will?" Jenna asked raising an eyebrow. Jeff looked to the left and right.

"I think he's a mermaid."

Jenna started to walk away.

"I'm calling a psychiatrist," she declared. He walked in front of her.

"It's true!"

"How did you come to this conclusion?" Jenna exclaimed getting some looks from other Dalton students.

"Well, he said he's from the Pacific, he played sports 'on land' and he said he lives in water," Jeff explained. They reached the corridor where the common room was located.

"So? Doesn't mean anything," Jenna said.

"You said he started wheezing and drinking water like he was in a drought."

"Okay…and that proves he was just nervous around my girlish charm," she said flipping her hair. Jeff rolled his eyes.

"I could be wrong. The good thing is, his name doesn't have anything to do with mermaids."

"Jeff?"

"Yeah?"

"Mermaids have fins," Jenna said.

"HA! Now will you believe me?"

"NO! But you did say there was a ghost…and there turned out to be one…maybe I should believe you."

"I win! See ya Jenna Bear!" he said ruffling her hair and walking through the doors.

"Good Lord."


Jeff finally finished combing his hair.

"How do I look?" he asked Nick, who was studying on his bed.

"Good?"

"JUST GOOD?"

"Okay fine! Sexy," Nick said feeling a little awkward.

"Thank you!" Jeff replied, "this is for my date tonight with Jessie J."

"WHAT!" Nick exclaimed abruptly jumping out of his bed, "Jessie J? I thought we were friends!"

"We are, and you've never met her."

"How did you? We are practically, as Blaine says, inseparable!"

"At the Lima Bean," Jeff answered. A knock came at their door, "there she is. I'll introduce you." Jeff opened the door.

"Hey!" Jess said.

"Hi. Before we leave, I want you to meet my best friend, Nick Duval." Nick had a confused look on his face.

"Who is that?" he asked.

"Jessie J," Jeff said.

"I thought you met the singer! Thank God. Sorry I snapped at you." Nick gave Jeff a reassuring pat.

"Okay…well we're leaving. No parties while I'm gone!" Jeff said before walking out of the dorm.


Jenna was hard at work…not on math or science, on mermaids. She was up until two in the morning

doing research on it, and continued to think, "What did I get myself into!" After school, she went straight to Dalton with Jess so they could both talk to Jeff.

"It was so nice last night! We went to a movie, got dinner, and he really liked me!" Jess said.

"That's good…I guess?" Jenna was a little shocked that Jeff had a romantic side. Speaking of Jeff…

"Hey guys!" he said happily.

"I have the research," Jenna said.

"On what?" Jess asked.

"On…uh…"

"Warblers!" Jeff said.

"That's cool, what did you find out?"

"That…uh…they're birds. That live in trees," Jenna said.

"They sing too," Jeff added. Jess looked confused.

"Jeff, I got the notes you shoved under my door and you spelt—

"Nick! Talk to Jessie J! Catch up!" Jeff shoved Nick and Jess together awkwardly, while he dragged Jenna to a corner.

"Well?" he asked.

"Not a lot. But I do know that if we splash him with water, he'll turn into a mermaid," Jenna said.

"Then we need water!" Jeff exclaimed.

"Shut up you moron! Be careful about what you fling out there!"

"Why?"

"What if Kendall walks by and hears us?" Jenna said, "Do you want the whole frickin school to know that the new kid is a mermaid?" at the utmost time, Kendall walked by.

"Thank you Miss Anderson," he said, "I'll be sure to publish that…immediately." Jenna smacked her forehead as he walked away.

"You should be careful what you say, Miss Anderson," Jeff said.

"Jeff, you are about two seconds away from having that tie around your neck as a noose!" Jenna said obviously annoyed. Nick walked over with Jess.

"So, what about Finn being a mermaid?" he asked.

"Nothing! You heard nothing!" Jeff ran away.

"Well, this is awkward," Jess said, "is that normal for him?"

"Yes," Nick and Jenna said.

"Let's hope he gets back before our rehearsal," Nick said.


The next day, everyone crowded around Jenna in the common room as she read the school's paper.

" 'As heard directly from Miss Jennifer Anderson herself, Finn Kelpo is a mermaid'," she read, "I'm screwed!" Everyone turned to Finn who had stayed away from them.

"Look, Finn, I'm sorry," Jeff said, "I have these weird assumptions about things. I thought there was a ghost at Dalton."

"He thought I was a hobbit," Blaine said.

"I'm sorry too. I kinda helped," Jenna said.

"It's okay, this Kendall guy seems like a jerk."

Mumbles of "You have no idea" filled the room.

"We're cool?" Jeff asked.

"Yeah," Finn said. Jenna squealed and hugged him.

"Jenna, you can let go now," Finn said. Jenna hung on. Blaine walked over and tried to pry his sister off of him.

"Jenna…come on…he needs to breath!" Blaine said as he successfully pulled her off. Jenna smoothed herself out.

"I'm good," she declared.

"At the same time, I can understand why he thought that," David said.

"You can?" Finn asked.

"Yeah, you said you practically lived in water, and you started to wheeze like you were out of breath," Wes said.

"Well, I've been swimming for a long time, and I get nervous around really attractive people," Finn said.

Jenna flipped her hair and fluttered her eyes, "well then."

"I meant Blaine."

An awkward silence filled the room. Then David spoke up.

"Now what?"
