Author's note: It's been so long! I had another chapter all written and ready, but I totally lost it hahaha. I know it's been almost a year in glee world, but i'm continuing on as if they have not graduated yet. Thanks anyone who has read this! Especially HorrorFan13 who even bothered to comment.
Serah headed down the halls, clutching her books to her chest, it was lunchtime and she was hungry. The prospect of the cafeteria worried her though. It had been a long day, Spanish had been hell and this Latina looking cheerleader had been rather nasty to her. She hated moving to new schools, no matter how much she was promised a new start, thing just always went the same way. She got to the overcrowded lunch room and stopped dead in her tracks, looking almost panicked. She walked over to the lunch line and picked up her tray. Up next to her trotted one of the boys from before and she looked over shyly. Kurt smiled at her and tilted his head "Hey Serah, how has your first day been going?" He grimaced as they moved down the line, looking at the gross food, good thing he packed lunch. She bit her lip, waiting for the lunch lady to give her the slop that would pass for beans. Serah shrugged as she replied "I guess about the same as every other school I've been too. Not knowing anyone, you'd think I'd get used to it." she laughed, sliding her tray over to pay the cashier. "But I have to admit being slushied is a first."
Kurt pulled Serah over to a table occupied by Sam, Mercedes, Tina and Mike. She sat down next to Mercedes and poked at her food. "So I never got your names or thanked you properly for helping me." Mercedes smiled and patted Serah's hand. "I'm Mercede's, this is Sam, that's Kurt and the Asian lovers are Tina and Mike." Kurt smiled and pulled out his organic feast "We make up part of the Glee club." Serah raised an eyebrow "well...that explains the singing." They all smiled as they ate their lunches. Blaine jogged up and set his tray down. "Hey guys!" he turned his eyes to the new girl and gave a bright and charming smile "Hey! It's you...what was your name?" She smiled "Serah." He extended his hand at her and she shook it. "Blaine, it's nice to meet you. That sucks what happened to you this morning." Serah shrugged "I guess it's kinda funny now that I think of it. wish I had more of a warning though. I wouldn't have spent so much time on hair and makeup this morning." The group gave a laugh. Mercedes looked up from her food. "But I don't understand, how did Rick know you were going to be here?" Tina nodded "yeah, I didn't even know we were getting a new student."
Serah sighed and rubbed her arm. "well...I've lived here before...a LONG time ago...Rick found me on facebook. I guess he knew I was coming back." She shrugged and Kurt looked at Blain "You lived here?" Serah nodded and laughed "yeah when I was really little...actually...I can't remember most of it, I went to a private school. I just remember this nasty little girl that used to go to my Drama camp, she was such a show off." The table went oddly silent and the tension filled the air. Finally Sam broke the tension "You went to Drama camp? You don't sing by any chance?" Serah blushed and looked at the ground. "um yeah a bit..." Mike leaned over to look at the girl "you should audition for glee club! I'm sure Mr. Schue would love to have you!" Serah shook her head "Nah I'm not that good." Kuro mumbled into his Asian cucumber salad "couldn't be worse than Sugar". Blaine smirked and elbowed Kurt. "Give us a sample." Serah looked around, "In the cafeteria?!" Tina laughed "you'd be surprised, go ahead." Serah shrugged, and stood up, clearing her throat.
She started softly and weakly. "Think of me..." She choked and cleared her throat again, Blaine giving her a supportive nod. She took another breath. "Think of me fondly, when we've said goodbye. Remember me, once in a while, please promise me you'll try. When you find that once again you long to take your heart back and be free, if you ever find a moment spare a thought for me." The room swirled and in her mind it turned into a beautiful opera house filled with people and Serah stood there in a white gown, long white gloves adorned her arms and small flowers in her hair. "We never said our love was evergreen or as unchanging as the sea, but if you can still remember stop and think of me. Think of all the things we've shared and seen, don't think about the way things might have been. Think of me, think of me waking, silent and resigned. Remember me trying too hard to put you from my mind. Recall those days think back on all those times think of the things we'll never do there will never be day when I won't think of you!" She smiles at the faces of the glee club, in the front row, dressed all in beautiful opera outfits. "We never said, our love was ever green or as unchanging as the sea but please promise me that sometimes you will think..." She paused and mustered up the courage. "Of me!" Clapping broke her out of her trance as she stood in front of the glee club and patted her on the back. "Very nice Serah, I'm sure everyone agrees you will fit right in to glee club and nice job on that last note." Serah blushed and went to take a seat. She frowned as rachel leaned over to her "Phantom of the Opera, a classic. I've always wanted to play Christine." There was something about this girl, but it couldn't be.
calmed the talking down and smiled "Now I know we've been looking at things for sectionals and I've bored you to death with assignments, that's why I've allowed Puck to sing a song on his own will today. Puck!" He rolled his hands and Puck walked through the door, grinning with his guitar. "This thing, called love, I just can't handle it. This thing, called love, I must get around to it. I aint ready! Crazy little thing called love." He walked up to Sugar and winked, she squealed and laughed, almost all the girls swooning as the boys joined in the background. Puck hopped up onto a chair. "There goes my baby! She knows how to rock and roll!" He handed his guitar off to a band member and grabbed Brittany's hand, twirling her into his arms. "She knows how to rock and roll! She drives me crazy! Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat." After a bit of dancing he twirled her back into her seat. Serah's eyes widened as she watched and a faint blush came on her cheek as Puck sauntered up to her. "I gotta be cool relax, get hip, Get on my tracks. Take a back seat, hitch-hike and take a long ride on my motor bike until I'm ready!Crazy little thing called love." He was almost nose to nose with her before he leaned back and and went to his knees. "craaazzyyy little thing called looooovveee!" Everyone clapped except for Santana who frowned and stared at Serah, who was looking very flushed.
After Glee Serah stood in the hall at her locker when Santana slammed the door on her. She jumped and looked wide eyed at Santana, who glared at her. "I don't know if you know this gorda, but Puck is the playboy of this school. If you wanna keep your virginity intact you better stay away from his slutty ass. Unluckily for you he doesnt seem to discriminate against the dietary challenged like yourself." Serah frowned and opened her mouth, but Santana cut her off. "I'm just doing this for your best interest." Serah watched in shock as Santana sashayed away, leaning heavily against her locker.
