Well, about the new picture on this… I found it on imdb, and it´s a picture of Natasha Calis… the funny thing is… that´s exactly how I imagined Lex.
"And on first place... the ones that´s going through to regionals of western Ohio is… Ladies and gentlemen… THE NEEEEEEW DIRECTIONS"
"Yes, woooo" and other happy shouts came from everywhere, and suddenly, Mr. Schue took the microphone. He took a breath, and then he said.
"I think the one holding this trophy, it should be the one that did is not only one of the winners here, but the winner of this whole year." I didn´t quite know who he was talking, until he laid the microphone on the floor and gave me the trophy. I first looked at it, than to Mr. Schue, then to the trophy , then to Mr. Schue again. And I did not quite know what to say, or how to react. Then I could feel Liam and Tyler sneaking up behind me, and they lifted me up to sit on their shoulders, and then I reacted. I stretched the trophy as I as I could in the air, even though it was heavy.
"Yaaaay." I shouted. "Whey… Let me down now, I need to say something." Tyler and Liam let me down to the floor, I reached the trophy to Hayley, and then I ran forward to grab a microphone.
"So… hi." I said in it, and the audience went silent again. "If you don´t remember, my name is Lex Ralston… and I am… I am the girl who got abused at home until the beginning of this year. And well, there are some people I´d want to say thank you to. First of all, thank you to all my wonderful friends in new directions, I couldn´t have done this without you… second, I would like you to say thank you to my sister Maddie, even though… well you know… she made me who I am today. Third, to someone else who´s in New your right now… Finn, Kurt and Blaine, the best older brothers I could have ever asked for... Started to get tired of this now? Well… I've got three more, fourth, to Burt and Carole Hummel- Hudson, they´re sitting up there," I pointed. "I could never put in words how much I love you guys, and how much I appreciate what you´re doing… and fifth and last. The biggest thank you today I would like to say to Mr. William Schuester. For not believing in me… when I said that I had fallen in the stairs. And for giving me a home, when there was no other place for me. From the bottom of my heart thank you…. And just one thing more… if you´re getting abused at home, or if you suspect that a child, or an adult, are getting abused. Please, call the police, or the social services… today, because tomorrow… it might be too late." I put the microphone down on the front of the stage, and during the round of applause from the audience, I walked out in the corridors, and to the choir room. Where I pulled my hoodie on over the button- up.
"My girl… is the bravest girl in the whole world," Burt, Carole and Mr. Schue came into the choir room, Burt lifted me up and span around. I laughed.
"I… I don´t know… I wasn´t really thinking… I was just… doing."
"I swear you made big parts of the audience cry. Carole said. "You got me." I smiled, and gave her a hug. Then I turned to Mr. Schue, I smiled, and then gave him a big hug.
"Thank you," I whispered.
"You´re very welcome." He let go of me. "Lex, you and I are going to do something, I want you, to look me in the eyes, and pretend that I´m your father, and then I want you to say to me, what you´d like to say to him, as if I was him." I nodded.
"Dad…" I began. "I don´t think you could ever understand how much I hate you. I hate you for what you did to Zeb… for what you did to mum… for what you did to me… but most of all… I hate you for what you did to Maddie. Does it feel good that you´ve murdered your own child, when you think about it are you proud? Does it keep you awake… just like it does to me? I hope it does, I hope you never get over it… because I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate, and you aren´t my dad anymore, a dad don´t treat his child like you treated me, you´re just Brian Ralston… nothing else."
"Ehrm… Lex," Mr. Schue lifted his hands and pointed.
"He´s standing right behind me is he?"
"Aha," Mr. Schue nodded slightly, and slowly I turned around, to face the two men, I hated more than anything else.
I know it´s short… I "Yawn." Need to stop there.
