Climbing out of their various vehicles the Glee club members waited, couples cuddled together leaned on their cars waiting for Mr. Schuester to join them "I bet his car broke down again." Puck shivered scooting closer to the huddled group.

"Why are we up at this ungodly hour, I mean seriously who wants to sing this early in the morning?" Santana grumbled then glared in Rachel's direction as she chirped.

"Good morning everyone." waving at the gathered group

Santana groaned dropping her head back against Brittany's shoulder "Make it go away."

Bouncing over to the group Rachel beamed at Finn as he stepped out of his truck with multiple little bags, they'd all given him money to pick up food. "He's so handsome."

"Good morning!" Unique called out making Santana shake her head.

"Oh hell no," Santana shook her head "I can't do this without coffee, too many cheerful people. Wait," Santana straightened up scanning the parking lot "where's the other one?"

"Miss Mercedes wanted to talk to her." Unique understood Santana had meant Marley.

The boys all met up with Finn taking the little brown bags from him before heading to their girls or in Puck's case Tina, handing Santana and Rachel their bags Finn wrapped around Rachel like Brittany and Mike were wrapped around Santana and Quinn. Finn was always unsure of what to do as a boyfriend so he tried to do what the other boys did, things that didn't bug their girlfriends. "I didn't know what you girls wanted so I got you this." Matt handed Unique a bag and menu. "Tina's mom owns the shop." Matt pointed over to the Asian girl taking her own bag from the boy with the mohawk. "Welcome to Glee club."

"Thank you." Unique smiled watching him walk back to the other football players.

His car backfiring as he pulled into the parking lot Will missed all of the students ducking and looking nervously around. "He needs to let auto shop work on his car." Puck shook his head straightening back up.

"He needs a lot of things." Santana rolled her eyes watching him park his crappy car. "5 bucks says he's wearing a vest we've never seen before."

"I'll take that bet." Puck nodded.

Marley found Unique when the kids all began to follow the teacher into the school, "I'm so nervous."

Giving Marley's newsboy cap a little tug Unique smiled opening the small bag "The pretty one bought us breakfast, so just relax and have some."

"I'm too nervous to eat." Marley shook her head.

"Damn it." Puck frowned seeing a vest on their teacher he'd never seen before.


Putting his things down on the piano Will smiled at the group, he was happy to see new people, it meant even when Santana left they'd have enough people to still compete. "Welcome everyone, have a seat." he gestured to the auditorium seats. "We have a full back up," the musicians were already getting settled on the stage, "we do have a rule that you have to try out for Glee club so I hope you three have come prepared." Will smiled at Marley and Unique and the large football player.

"I'm just here for support." Shane shook his head taking a seat next to Mercedes.

"Oh, okay." Will nodded.

"We're here to sing." Unique held up her hand.

"Awesome." Will smiled "did you bring music or..."

"We have it." the piano player spoke up.

Taking the stage Marley walked up to the standing microphone "I'm Marley Rose and I'd like to sing New York State of Mind by Billy Joel."

Santana watched Rachel as Marley began singing, while the others were enjoying it, Tina was frowning and so was Rachel. While Santana understood Tina's apprehension, Marley was yet another talented singer to fight for solos it was Rachel she was going to have to keep her eye on, the whole sending Sunshine to a crack house was still fresh in everyone's mind. It took her a couple seconds but while the others applauded the frail brunette Santana had Brittany help her to her feet, clapping her hands she whistled her appreciation, Mercedes stood in agreement loudly cheering, Rachel shifted uneasy as the rest of the group joined them causing Marley to blush and drop her head. "If the other young lady sings any where close to this, we're going to have a great year." Will beamed watching his Glee club enthusiastically welcome the new girl. "Welcome to the Glee club." Will nodded. Marley smiled glancing to the back of the auditorium, her mom was hidden away by one of the doors smiling, blowing Marley kisses Mrs. Rose left to go start her day in the cafeteria. "Alright who's next?"

"That would be I, Unique Adams." holding up her hand she headed to the stage, giving Marley a squeeze as they passed on the stairs. "That was beautiful."

"Thank you." Marley blushed hurrying for a seat, apparently the one Unique had just been in next to the pregnant Latina.

"You definitely have a set of pipes." Santana nodded, Marley blushed.

"Can you dance?" Brittany asked hopefully, "Sanny can't dance with me right now, we need dancers." Marley nodded.

Rachel squirmed more as Unique belted out a song with just as much beauty and power as Marley had, she didn't like that the duo could rival her but then she did have Mr. Schue wrapped around her finger, Quinn watched Rachel knowing that Sue would act if Rachel got out of line or if Mr. Schue continued to favor her. Rachel was, after all, still Rachel it didn't matter that things were okay with the whole Santana having Finn's babies. Standing Mr. Schue joined the students, even Rachel, in welcoming Unique to the Glee club as well.

"Is this where we try out?" the group turned to the familiar voice behind them, three very different boys stood mid auditorium, two of whom they knew.

"Blaine!" Kurt squealed jumping from his seat.

"Spy!" Rachel yelped.

"No, no. I promise." Blaine chuckled catching Kurt in his arms. "I transferred, it was just too much only seeing my boyfriend on the weekends."

"That's great." Mr. Schuester grinned asking "Do you have anything prepared, we know you can sing it's just a formality."

"Anything you'd like." Blaine smiled.

"Ass kiss." Santana muttered, Marley looked nervously over at the Latina.

"What about you?" their teacher asked the other boy.

"My name is Joe, I was home schooled until this year." he answered.

"Hey what's with the hair?" Puck asked causing Tina to shake her head and smack his chest with the back of her hand "What?"

"You have a mohawk, you don't get to ask people about their hair." Tina laughed.

"Dreadlocks." Joe smiled, he wasn't offended "They're named after books in Bible, and my tattoos are different Bible verses." he added seeing the interest in his visible tattoo.

"Wow." Quinn murmured surprised by his sandals. "Teen Jesus."

Eyebrow arched Puck glanced back at Tina whispering "Now can I say something?"

"No." Tina chuckled "Be nice."

"And you are?" Mr. Schue asked the blonde boy, he'd seen him with the others a few times.

"Sam, Sam I am, and I do not like green eggs and ham." He grinned.

"Wow, still no game. Puck," Santana gestured to the new quarterback "do something with that."

Puck chuckled pointing out "He's quarterback, someone will fall for his dorkiness, it worked for Finn."

"What?" Finn was confused as to if he should be offended or not.

"Well whoever wants to take the stage next." Mr. Schue gestured behind him.

They knew Blaine could sing so they were hoping one of the other two would volunteer, Joe held up his hand, the guitar on his back slipping when he did so. "I'll go, if you don't mind." he said looking at the other boys, Sam shrugged he didn't care.

"I'll go last." Blaine smiled, Santana rolled her eyes.

The group was happy that the boys could actually sing, they already knew Blaine could, Finn frowned watching Rachel's eyes light up at the sound of the other boy's voice, he'd been cast off for Jesse so he knew what was coming, Mr. Schue would pair Rachel up with whoever she wanted, it was how he ended up singing with her while he was dating Quinn. Rachel of course jumped to her feet after Blaine's song, Santana did not, even if she could have she wouldn't have. She clapped politely keeping her eye on Finn, shaking her head she glanced at Quinn who nodded, Sue might be stepping in a lot faster than they thought. Santana glared at Mr. Schue when he said "This is awesome you guys we have enough so that when Santana leaves we won't have to scramble for a replacement."

"Dick." Santana muttered.
