Chapter 3- Shattered
Author's Note- Hey guys! Sorry I haven't updated in a while... I went on vacation for a week and a half. I was going to say something in the last chapter but I forgot. My other story I Wish will probably be updated by Friday. Thank you so much to all of you who reviewed... it means a lot to me really. Especially HannahAli for suggesting your idea. I going to use a variation of that in one of the upcoming chapters. Once again thank you and please please review.
Emma Pillsbury sat at her desk glaring at the clock, willing the hands to move faster. There was eight minutes left of the worst school day of her life. After she confronted Will in the lounge, she ran back to her office in shame. Emma then canceled all of her appointments for the rest of the day. She felt as though she herself needed counseling. This was by far the guiltiest Emma had ever felt in her life. To make matters worse about twenty minutes after the incident, Sue came in to "congratulate" her.
"Congrats Elmo! We did it, together we showed the school how horrible William Schuester really is. You know I honestly thought you wouldn't have the guts to do it but you impressed me," the Cheerios coach exclaimed proudly.
"You know what Sue? You're a really mean person. I can't believe you dragged me along into your plan. What do you have against Will? I mean really, why do you hate him?" the guidance counselor exclaimed loudly.
"Between the curly hair that looks like it was dipped in a large vat of lard and coaching that group of singing little misfits, I don't know how you can't hate him," Sue said smirking.
"Well, I don't hate him. He's a good guy... really good and today we hurt him badly. Will ran out crying today. He left the school, that's how hurt he was. And it's all because of you, Sue," Emma spat out angrily.
"Wow. It's brave of you to accuse me of that. I mean you were a 100% okay with the plan, when we started. Also, just to remind you, you and only you were the one that just ruined Schuester's reputation and life," Sue said triumphantly. Then she left the room, leaving Emma sitting there in a state of shock and disbelief.
The flashback of this and the confrontation had been playing back in her head over and over, on a continuous loop. Emma spent the afternoon cleaning obsessively but even that didn't calm her down. She looked at the clock, one and a half minutes left until she could leave. At least none of the high schoolers saw me yelling at their Spanish teacher... but they did see the posters. At least by tomorrow most of the posters will be taken down by the janitors. Oh my gosh! Tonight's my first date with Carl. Ugh! Worst. Day. Ever. Emma thought as she grabbed her purse and coat. Ring! Ring! The bell rang and the guidance counselor was gone.
Finn Hudson ran out of history class and bounded down the stairs to the choir room. He was the first to arrive, thankfully because he had a lot of explaining to do. All the other members of the New Directions were wondering why Mr. Schue disappeared in the middle of the day. They obviously knew about the posters, everyone felt really bad about that. So after lunch Finn shot everyone a text that read 'Hey guys- Mr. S left but come 2 the choir room after school & I'll xplain everything. See u there! - Finn :)'. Just then Rachel, Santana, Brittany, Puck, and Mike came in. A few seconds later the remaining members walked in.
"Hey man, what's going on with Schuester?" Puck asked.
"Okay guys, that's why I brought you here today. We all saw the posters this morning and Puck, Quinn, Mercedes and I even asked him about it. He said he was fine but he was obviously lying," Finn explained.
"So, what did you find out?" Kurt asked excitedly. He loved gossip of any kind.
"Wait! Finn before you tell them you should tell me. Because as co- captain of the Glee club, it's my duty to know the important information concerning Glee club," Rachel told him.
"Oh my God, Berry! Get over yourself," Santana yelled, as Quinn and Brittany rolled their eyes.
"Yeah, tell us what's going on," Tina added.
"Okay, okay. Everyone saw the posters, right?" Finn paused, everyone nodded. "Well, I asked Mr. S about the poster's meaning and he told me," Finn continued.
"So, you really didn't need a worksheet?" Mercedes asked.
"Exactly," Finn replied smiling. "Anyways, he told me that a couple of weeks ago he made a mistake. Mr. Schue kissed Shelby, another glee coach but that was it. He felt really bad about it but didn't tell his girlfriend Ms. Pillsbury. And somebody found out and put up the posters. Now, he thought it was Ms. Sylvester," Finn explained.
"It probably was," Matt said.
"Nope," Finn said. "It was Ms. P."
"No freaking way," Quinn replied.
"Is it illegal for me to beat up a 30- year- old woman?" Puck asked, while everyone rolled their eyes.
"That's not all," Finn continued. "So, during lunch I walked by the teacher's lounge, to see what was gonna happen. Ms. P like totally confronted him... loudly. She was yelling and all the other teachers were watching. She said she knew about Shelby and April. April turned out to be false information. Ms. P also admitted to putting up the posters. Then she insulted his hair, his divorce, and pretty much everything about him. Next, she said she started dating somebody named Carl. This is the worst part... Mr. Schue broke down. About thirty seconds into the speech he started crying, by the end of the speech he was bawling. At the end he ran out crying," Finn said.
"Oh my God!" exclaimed Artie.
"I seriously want to beat up Pillsbury now," Puck said.
"We need to help him," Rachel said.
"I hate to admit it but Rachel's right," Quinn said.
"I have an idea... how about Puck and I go talk to Ms. P tomorrow, and then after school we take Mr. Schue to Breadstix," Finn suggested. Everyone agreed, now Finn and Puck just needed to figure out what to say to Ms. Pillsbury.
Okay... so at first this chapter was going to be a lot longer but then I changed my mind and decided to make it two chapters instead. So I'll try to have chapter four up by Saturday. Also, let me know if you think I'm putting the Glee club in character as it's kinda hard to write dialogue for them. One more thing.. check out my profile page I updated it and made a coming soon area. Thanks for reading and please review! :)
