Chapter 38
Dance With Somebody
Rosa took out her phone and scrolled through her contacts, but she stopped once she got to Puck's name.
Rosa: This is more than a typical kinda thing
Felt the joints in my bones when you were touching me, oh oh
Didn't want to take it slow
In a daze, going crazed, I can barely think
You're replaying in my brain, find it hard to sleep, oh oh
Waiting for my phone to blow
Now i'm here in a sticky situation
Got a little trouble, yep and now I'm pacin'
She walks around her bed
Five minutes, ten minutes, now it's been an hour
Don't wanna think too hard, but I'm sour
Oh oh, I can't seem to let you go
See I've been waiting all day
For you to call me baby
So let's get up, let's get on it
Don't you leave me broken hearted tonight
Throws her phone on the bed
Come on, that's right
Honest baby I'll do
Anything you want to
So can we finish what we started
Don't you leave me broken hearted tonight
She pulls his number up again
Come on, that's right, cheerio
See I've been waiting all day
For you to call me baby
So let's get up, let's get on it
Don't you leave me broken hearted tonight
Come on, that's right
Honest baby I'll do
Anything you want to
So can we finish what we started
Don't you leave me broken hearted tonight
Come on, that's right, cheerio
Her phone finally rang
"Hello," she answered, "What time?... Now?... Sure!"
"Bye Alyssa, I'll be back!" she yelled, running for the door.
"Hold up, where are you going?"
"Nowhere," Rosa whined, playing with her hair.
"Your going to see him aren't you? I saw you two hanging with each other the whole time at Six Flags."
"NO!"
"Be careful, he doesn't have the best track record. He is the one that knocked Quinn up in the first season of the show."
"I'll be okay."
"Hey, babe," Puck said when Rosa got into his truck.
"So, what did you want to do?"
"I thought we could go to this bar. I clean the owner's pool, so I can get us in."
"Okay."
They got into the bar and had a few drinks, which was enough to make Rosa look like a nut.
"Oh... my... god... I love this fucking song!" she squealed, pulling puck onto the stage.
Rosa: There's a boy, I know
He's the one I'm dreaming of ohhh
Looks into, my eyes
Takes me to the clouds above ohhh
Oh I lose, control
Can't seem to get enough uhuhhh
When I wake, from dreamin'
Tell me is it really love uhuhhh
Ohhh
How will I know?
Backup Singers: Don't trust your feeling
Rosa: How will I know?
How will I know?
Backup Singers: Love can be deceiving
Rosa: How will I know
How will I know
If he really loves me
I say a prayer with every heart beat
I fall in love when ever we meet
I'm asking you cause you know about these things
How will I know
If he's thinking of me
I tried to phone
But I'm too shy cant speak
Falling in love
Is all bitter sweet
This love is strong
But why do I feel weak?
Oh wake me!
I'm shaking, I wish I had you near me now uhuhhh
Said there's no, mistaken
What I feel is really love
Ohhh tell me
All: If he loves, if he loves, if he loves me
If he loves me not
Ohhh yea yea
If he loves, if he loves, if he loves me
If he loves me not
Ohhh yea yea
Rosa: Ohhh how will I know?
All: How will I know
If he's thinking of me
I tried to phone
But I'm too shy cant speak
Falling in love
Is all bitter sweet
This love is strong
But why do I feel weak?
How will I know?
How will I know?
If he really loves me
I say a pray with every heart beat
I fall in love when ever we meet
I'm asking you cause you know about these things
Rosa: How will I know?
Update 5/1/12: "Was that about me?" Puck asked, when she stumbled off of the stage.
"No, lil' bitch! I said I love that song," she screamed.
"Woah, calm down. We have school tomorrow."
"I am calm! Don't judge me!"
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"You're always judging me."
"Okay, you can't drink again, you're crazy."
"STOP JUDGING ME!"
"If you can't calm her down, you have to leave," the bartender told Puck.
"Yeah, we will leave," he grabbed her hand and brought her out to the truck.
"What are you doing? Where are we going?"
"Home."
"Why are you being such a lil' bitch!"
"Umm, I don't think I like you when you are drunk."
"You're still judging me," her eyes began to fill with tears.
"Okay, sorry."
"I love you."
"You want to go back to my place?"
"Yeah."
Puck grinned as they drove down the road and pulled into the dingy looking hut that he calls a home.
"HOLD UP! You plan on wooing me in that? Can't we go to a Hilton or something?"
"I clean pools, I can't go to the Hilton!"
"Well then, I don't think you're ready for this jelly."
"Are you saying no to the Puck-a-saurus?"
"HELL YEAH! I need a man that can treat me right."
"Well, thanks for wasting my time," he stormed into his house.
"Umm, I need your help."
"Please don't tell me that you forgot to use protection," Alyssa said into the phone.
"No, we had a fight, and I need a ride back."
"Let me call Ivan and I will get back to you."
"Please hurry, I think I see a bum!"
It took about 15 minutes for Alyssa and Ivan to get to Puck's, but Rosa was so happy to see them.
"What did he do?" Alyssa asked, getting out of the Scion.
"I told him I didn't want to have sex with him in that thing," she pointed to the house, "And he left me out here."
"Oh, that is exactly what Jeff told him when they met," Ivan said.
"He wanted to have sex with Jeff?" Rosa asked.
"This is why you are number one on the slow list," Alyssa answered, "Jeff said that he thought Puck's house was ugly."
"Oh."
They got into the car and Ivan dropped them off at home.
The next day at school.
"Hey, Rosa," Jeff called, rolling over to her, "Can I get you to do me a favor?"
"What is it?"
"I want you to go with me to physical therapy today. It will be my first session since the accident, and you are always so positive, I thought you would be the best person to go with me."
"Umm, okay."
"Hey, Mr. Schue has called for a very important Glee club meeting," Rory shouted from the school's entrance.
"I wonder what it is about," Jeff said as he and Rosa went into the choir room.
"I have been doing a lot of research to prepare for this weeks lesson," Mr. Schuester said while writing on the whiteboard.
"It is about time we did a Whitney tribute," Rachel clapped once he was done writing.
"I want you guys to use her songs to express what is really going on with you."
"I don't get it, what is really going on with us?" Finn asked.
"For most of you, these next few weeks will be your last at McKinley. For a young person, all that change can be difficult to handle, so you may focus on other things."
"What are you talking about?" Santana asked.
"Its okay, I understand that you are holding onto Whitney because you don't want to say goodbye to High School."
"We are holding onto Whitney because she is amazing."
"It is okay Santana, though Mr. Schue's attempts to understand us may be misguided, I must go practice Whitney's version of The Star Spangled Banner."
"Alyssa," Jeff called out as they left the choir room to go to first period, "Hey, so Sixto is here. We found him on our way home on senior ditch day. He should be done in the office by now."
"Really? How did he get here?"
"He only told me that he woke up here. Maybe you can get more of an explanation out of him."
"I will see what I can do," they parted ways and went to class.
"Hey, are you ready?" Jeff asked Rosa at her locker.
"Yeah."
They went outside where Artie's dad was waiting and got to the physical therapy center about twenty minutes later.
"Jeff? What are you doing here?" Quinn asked once they got into the waiting room.
"Umm, I signed up to do physical therapy today. I mean, the doctor said he didn't know if I could walk again, but I know that I will."
"Oh."
"Did you come here with someone?"
"Hey," Joe said when he returned from the restroom.
"You brought him," Jeff said under his breathe and Quinn gave him an angry glare.
Joe had at least twenty dreadlocks and under his t-shirt was a tattoo, but it was difficult to make out what it was. He was wearing a pair of open-toed sandals and was around five ten.
"Quinn," a nurse called from the door by the check in desk.
"She is dating him," Jeff told Rosa once Quinn was out of earshot.
"So, you two aren't dating, are you?"
"Well no, but..."
"You don't want to chase after someone that you can't get."
"I know, but..."
"No more, buts you have to give up on her. Why don't you sing a song to her about it."
"I know just the song,"
The next day, in glee club
"Mr. Schue, I have a song I want to sing, but it isn't a Whitney song. Maybe it can help them say goodbye though," Jeff said as he took the center of the room.
Jeff: Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
And I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
Rosa: But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
And you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Jeff: Somebody
(The New Directions: I used to know)
Somebody
(Rosa: Now you're just somebody that I used to know)
Jeff: Somebody
(The New Directions: I used to know)
Somebody
(Rosa: Now you're just somebody that I used to know)
Jeff and Rosa: I used to know
Somebody
Update 5/1/12: "Hey, Mr. Schue, Quinn and I have a song we would like to do too, but ours is actually by Whitney," Joe said.
"Go ahead, I guess."
Joe: A few stolen moments is all that we share
You've got your family, and they need you there
Though I've tried to resist, being last on your list
But no other man's gonna do
So I'm saving all my love for you
Quinn: It's not very easy, living all alone
My friends try and tell me, find a man of my own
But each time I try, I just break down and cry
Cause I'd rather be home feeling blue
So I'm saving all my love for you
Joe: You used to tell me we'd run away together
Love gives you the right to be free
You said be patient, just wait a little longer
But that's just an old fantasy
Both: I've got to get ready, just a few minutes more
Gonna get that old feeling when you walk through that door
For tonight is the night, for feeling alright
We'll be making love the whole night through
So I'm saving all my love
Yes I'm saving all my love
Yes I'm saving all my love for you
Quinn: No other woman,
Joe: is gonna love you more
Both: Cause tonight is the night, that I'm feeling alright
We'll be making love the whole night through
So I'm saving all my love
Yeah I'm saving all my love
Yes I'm saving all my love for you
For you
For you
For you
Jeff clenched his fists, and stormed out of the room.
"Well, I think that does it for this meeting. Remember that we have another meeting tomorrow. We are starting to run out of time to get ready for nationals."
"Jeff is so dramatic, I think he has a chance in our NYADA auditions next week," Rachel whispered to Kurt.
Jeff grabbed his things from his locker and noticed Rachel with Kurt who was giggling while reading something on his phone.
"I know what that is, Finn sends me cute text messages all of the time. Usually they are just puns about my boobs, but I appreciate the effort."
"It isn't Blaine," Kurt replied.
"Wait, then who is it?" Jeff asked, stopping next to them.
"It is just this guy I met at Between the Sheets."
"Between the Sheets?" Jeff asked.
"It is a music store."
"What did he say?" Rachel questioned.
"You must be an astronaut because your smile is out of this world," Kurt answered.
"Let me see," Rachel takes his phone, "Oh my gosh, this has been going on for two days now."
"You can't do this to Blaine, Kurt," Jeff agreed.
"It is just innocent, he makes me feel good."
"Blaine is supposed to make you feel good," Rachel retorted.
Next day at Glee Club
"I have a song I need to sing," Blaine got up, "This song is for anyone who has ever been cheated on."
"This is insane, I didn't cheat on you," Kurt argued.
Blaine: Friday night you and your boys went out to eat, uh
Then they hung out
But you came home around three, yes you did
If six of y'all went out, uh
Then four of you were really cheap,
'Cause only two of you had dinner
I found your credit card receipt
Blaine (with The New Directions as backup): It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Pack your bags up and leave
Don't you dare come running back to me
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Close the door behind you, leave your key
I'd rather be alone than unhappy,
The New Directions: I've been through all this before
Blaine: I've been through all this before
The New Directions: But how could you think
Blaine: Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The New Directions: Don't turn around and see my face
Blaine: Don't turn around
Blaine (with The New Directions as backup): There's no more tears left here for you to see
Blaine: Was it really worth you going out like that, tell me,
The New Directions: You were making a fool of me, yeah
Blaine (with The New Directions as backup): It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Pack your bags up and leave
Don't you dare come running back to me
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Close the door behind you, leave your key
I'd rather be alone than unhappy
Rachel and Jeff gave Kurt an 'I told you so,' look as Blaine stormed out of the room.
"Hey Jeff, how about I go with you to your next physical therapy session?" Alyssa asked.
"If you want to," Jeff mumbled.
Friday finally came and the final bell just rang
"Mr. Schuester said that the Glee Club meeting is optional today, did you want to ditch it and go to therapy?" Alyssa asked walking with Jeff towards the theatre.
"Did you know that there are only 42 days left until graduation? Half of those are going to be spent preparing for nationals, and we have prom."
"So?"
"We can go to therapy next week."
"Okay."
Artie: Clap your hands ya'll it's alright
Mercedes: Turn me up, turn me up, turn me up
Artie: Clap your hands ya'll it's alright
Clap your hands ya'll it's alright
Clap your hands ya'll it's alright
Mercedes: If tomorrow is Judgement Day
And I'm standing on the front line
And the Lord ask me what I did with my life
I will say I spent it with you
(Artie: Clap your hands ya'll it's alright)
Mercedes: It's alright
(Artie: Clap your hands ya'll it's alright)
Artie: If I loose my fame and fortune
Blaine: Well, it don't matter
Artie: And I'm homeless on the street
Mercedes: On the street, oh lord
Artie and Kurt: And I'm sleeping in Grand Central Station
Artie: It's okay, if you're sleeping with me.
All: Clap your hands ya'll it's alright
Clap your hands ya'll it's alright
'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
Artie: If I should die this very day
(All: Clap your hands ya'll it's alright)
(Mercedes: Very very very day)
Artie: Don't cry, 'cause on earth we wasn't meant to stay
(Mercedes: Don't cry)
(All: Clap your hands ya'll it's alright)
Mercedes: And and no matter what the people say
(All: Clap your hands ya'll it's alright)
(Artie: Really don't matter)
All: I'll be waiting for you after the Judgement Day
'Cause your love is my love

All: Clap your hands ya'll it's alright
Clap your hands ya'll it's alright
Clap your hands ya'll it's alright
'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
