New direction gets new members and gets choreography tips
Music room:
Will was standing in front of the whiteboard and is writing a single word. "choreography." He drew a line under the word before looking back at New Direction. "Rachel, kurt, mercedes, tina, artie, and rory." "ok guys, the word today is choreography. Now you all have the singing skills, but you need to learn to dance"
Rory: Are you gonna teach us?
Will: I'm planning on showing you a video of me dancing back when i was a student here
Kurt: they had video tapes back then
Tina and mercedes started laughing as Will was smirking. "Very funny. But this dance performance worked when i was in glee, and it's time to past it down to you six. " Rachel held her hand up. "Uhh, Mr. schuester. With all due respect, but their's so many other dance performances these days. And i thought we could do something a little more. New". Will looks at rachel and says, "But you haven't even seen it."
Rachel: Mr. Schuester, i was watching sectional videos and they have multiple performances. I just thought we should pick something more. Spirit
Kurt: i kinda like her idea
Will: well if you all think that way. Then we'll think of something
Will walked back toward the whiteboard and wrote the word "spirit" and drew a line under it. "we'll think of a way to bring spirit to our dance"
Sue office:
Sue was sitting behind her desk while watching a video of the cheerios performance in her computer until a knock came from her door. "Enter". Her office door opened, revealing quinn, santana, and brittany. "you wanted to see us, coach sylvester"
Sue: yes i did. Close the door
Santana closed the door and asked. "so, what is it". Sue turned her computer, showing the girls the cheerios performance. "see what I'm seeing?". Quinn nodded. "us practicing". Sue shook her head before pressing a button, zooming the video closer. And notice brittany leg jerking. "you see it now?"
Brittany: coach, i told you yesterday i didn't had a banana. I was cramping
Sue: sounds like excuses to me. How are we supposed to win at national while your doing that leg thing
Quinn: You've been making us practice in the mornings. During lunch, during the knights football practice, and after-school. We need a break
Sue stood up and says "a what?". Santana and brittany took a step back. Quinn hesitantly says. "A break, brittany hasn't slept. Santana hasn't eaten. " Sue interrupts, quinn. "santana can lose a few pounds, in my opinion." Santana makes an offensive expression. "Did she just fat shame me?" she whispers
Sue: If you wanna win nationals. You're gonna have to learn to play dirty. And that is that New Direction group. We can not go to national without our full budget. So here's what you're going to do. Sneak into schuester office in the music room. Find something that could help us and come back
Santana: Just because I'm a badass doesn't mean i rob people
Sue: Oh, c'mon. It's nothing. We're just gonna take down this club that won't go anywhere
Quinn: Coach, there's a lot of things we've done for the cheerios. But this, we won't
Sue: Not even if it meant you won't go to yale
Quinn makes a confused expression. "What? cheerleading scouts is gonna see our routine, and i can get a scholarship. " Sue says, "No, because in order for them to watch you perform. They're gonna ask me about you. And I'll be happy to tell them that you're a lazy, drug user. "
Quinn: What?!
Sue: You wanna win. You have to play dirty, so do you wanna save the cheerios. Or ruin your future?
Quinn sighed before looking at brittany and santana
An hour later, the glee gang walked out of the music room while Will closed the music room door and locked the door before following the group. Quinn, santana, and brittany came out of the corner from the other end of the hall and ran toward the music room door. Santana took out a bobby pin and whispered. "Keep a look out." Santana put the pin in the keyhole and started jiggling it around
Brittany: When did you learn to do this?
Santana: Let's just say my brother has car trouble. For an army veteran, he gets locked out of his car way too much. Then i learned to open other doors
Santana heard a click and opened the door. The three cheerleaders walked in the room and headed toward Will office. Santana looks at quinn and says "Quinn, you sure you wanna do this?". Quinn says "i have no choice. Sue threatening my college future"
Brittany: their other colleges
Quinn: my dad wants me to go to yale
Santana: like you wanna be a lawyer
Quinn: just shut up and let's do this
Quinn opened the office room and the three scattered around the room. Brittany found a photo of will and a girl with brownish blonde hair. "Hey, mr schuester has a girlfriend". Santana rolled her eyes before turning Will computer on and looked through his database
Quinn opened one of his drawer and found a VHS tape, labeled. "Glee peformance 1993". Quinn grabbed the VHS tape and says "i got something". Santana turned the computer off and says "great. Now let's go". Quinn, santana, and brittany ran out of the office and gets a light shine into their eyes. The three covered their eyes from the light. "i thought i heard something". The person lower the flashlight, revealing shannon beiste. "you three are coming with me"
Principal office:
The three girls were sitting outside of figgins office while looking down. Quinn says "that's it. I'm not going to yale, my dad is going to be disappointed in me"
Santana: quinn im sorry to say this. But fuck your dad
Brittany: isn't that incest
Santana and quinn looks at brittany. Inside the office, shannon and will were standing infront of figgins. Who was staring at the tape. "why after school. Why of all hours"
Shannon: i caught them with that tape
Will: it's sue, it's gotta be. She's trying to take my club down after we took some of her budget for the cheerios
Figgins: we don't have proof of that
Will: but they're sue cheerios
Figgins: but no confession or eye witnesses. For all we know, they are the suspect. I'm going to suspend them
Will: woah woah woah. I don't think that's a good idea. I'm just as upset as you are, but isn't there a way to punish them without kicking them out of school
Figgins: what do you suggest?
Will looks at the girls before he snapped his fingers. "they join glee". Shannon says "what?" with confusion. Will says "don't you see. They help the glee club with our choreography. And they'll learn about what sue is trying to destroy. It'll be like community service". Beiste says "it's actually not a bad idea"
Figgins: are you sure you can trust them?
Will: they're not bad kids. They're just doing what their coach tells them what to do. They need guidance. And glee could help them
Figgins: alright, they join glee. No suspension, but if theirs anything suspicious. They're suspended
Will nodded. "they'll do good. I promise". Shannon walked up toward the office door and opened it up, gaining the girls attention. "alright. Let's go". The three stood up and slowly walked in the room
The next day:
In the music room. Rory was playing on the piano while mercedes was singing beside him. Rachel was sitting on one of the chairs while writing in her notebook. Kurt was using his phone to record tina and artie dancing together
Will walked in and says "hey guys. Sorry I'm late, but i killed two birds with one stone". Rory says "that's cruel, mr schuester"
Will: it's a figure of speech, rory. I have a way to help our choreography and got new members. They're out in the hallway right now
Rachel clapped her hands with excitement before standing up and walked up next to her friends. Will took a step away from the door, revealing, quinn, santana, and brittany. Making the glee members look confused
Rachel walked up and offer her hand to quinn. "hi, I'm rachel berry. I was the girl you threw in a dumpster". Quinn says "yeah, i remember" Quinn ignored rachel hand and walked through the music room
Mercedes: you three are the most popular cheerios in school. Why would you join glee?
Will: you said we needed spirit in our dances, and they can help with our choreography
Brittany: yes, we can
Tina: T-they volunteered
Quinn: yeah we did. Beside, uh. Since im going out with finn, i figured i should get to know kurt
Kurt: you only been going out for a few weeks
Will says. "guys. Now i know you have your suspicious, but they are helping us more today then anyone. We need members and they are gonna help with our dance, right?". The cheerleaders nodded. Rachel says "you know, this is great. I'm happy to have new friends". Santana looks at rachel and says "don't get weird"
Mercedes: hey, i barely like rachel
Rachel gave an offensive expression at mercedes as she's talking. "but we're a team. Show her some respect". Santana shrugged. Will says "ok, let's get to work"
Hallway:
Finn was standing beside his locker with his crutches under his arms, and was waiting as puck was taking a couple of books out of finns locker. "matt and mike said we need you back in the field". He said as he closed the locker
Finn: my mom is not letting me in the field until my knee heals. But you guys will be fine. Matt has enough experience in the field. And you can be the quarterback until I'm healed
Puck and finn started walking through the hallway. Puck says "not a quarterback back, i prefer linebacker". Finn laugh while walking beside puck. "hey, did you heard the news?". He asked finn as they past sue. "what?"
Puck: your girlfriend, santana and brittany joined glee
Sue stopped walking and looked at the two. "really?, she didn't mention that yesterday". Puck says "let's hope they don't turned gay". Finn says "hey knock it off". Sue ripped her clipboard in half before walking through the hallway until she found the music room, and she look through the door window. Seeing quinn, brittany, and santana standing infront of the gang
Quinn: Five, six, seven, and eight
The cheerios started doing footwork infront of them. "watch my feet". The gang started copying their footwork. Santana and brittany stopped dancing and walked around the gang. Santana snapped infront of mercedes face and pointed at quinn feet. "follow". Mercedes shook her head before copying the footwork again
Rory pumped his fist in the air, and accidentally hit brittany in the face, making her fell down on her back while holding her head in pain. "oh my god, i am so sorry". Brittany stood up while messaging her face. Quinn shook her head "we got a lot of work to do"
Sue office:
Sue was sitting behind her desk, and was staring at quinn, santana, and brittany. "nothing came close to the horror i saw. I even watch my parents made love in the guest room"
Brittany: you had parents?
Sue: Care to explain why you are now members of that glee club
Santana: because of you
Sue sat up and says "me?". Quinn gave a glare at sue before saying. "coach beiste caught us in mr. Schuester office. We either get suspended or join the glee club". Sue started laughing. "that's all. And you chose glee?". Brittany interrupts sue. "we can't afford getting suspended. I have a 1.1 grade average". Santana and quinn looks at brittany for a moment before looking back at sue. "like she said, we can't afford to get suspended"
Santana: my dad will kick my ass
Sue: oh please. My dad did more then a kick from my behind
Quinn: look. It won't matter, we're still loyal to the cheerios. Glee club means nothing
Sue was tapping her finger on her desk before saying. "fine. But remember, cheerios comes first. If we have practice during a glee club meet"
Brittany: we head to practice
Sue nodded. "excellent. Now, head on home. Cheerios practice is tomorrow in 7am". The girls nodded before running out of the office
Hudson house:
In the living room, carole was wrapping some gauze around finn injured knee while sitting on the couch. "there. Still pain?"
Finn: yeah, it hurts a lot
Burt walked up with two pills in his hand. "here, son. Your pain pills". Finn grabbed the pills and swallowed them. "thanks"
The front door opened up, revealing kurt and quinn. "hey, finn. Look who stopped by". Finn smiled and says "hey, quinn". Quinn walked up and gave finn a kiss on the cheek
Quinn: how are you feeling today?
Finn: I'm fine, really. I can stand up without these stupid crutches
Burt: Really, then do it
Burt took the crutches away and took a step back. Finn looked at quinn, who was staring at him. "nah. I'm good". Burt nodded. "that's what i thought" he said before giving finn back the crutches. Carole stood up and says "burt, why don't we go to the kitchen and let these kids some privacy". Burt and carole walked in the kitchen as burt says "i always tell him, not to act invulnerable infront of a lady".
Finn: sorry about my dad
Quinn: oh no it's fine. You can walk, right?
Finn: oh definitely
Quinn giggled at kurt sat down. "so, how is glee?". Finn asked both quinn and kurt. Quinn looks at kurt and says "oh, he told you". Finn shook his head. "puck told me. Why didn't you tell me"
Quinn: i don't know. It just happened
Kurt: she volunteered to be our dance instructor. We need a little help for our choreography
Quinn: Sue gave us a coach last year to teach us about choreography. Dancing and cheerleading performances are not that different
Finn nodded. "Wow. My little brother and girlfriend are working together. " Quinn smiled at kurt before giving finn a kiss
The next day:
Out of the courtyard, santana is in her cheerio uniform. Sitting on the school steps, writing in her notebook until rachel ran down the steps and sat down beside her, with her laptop in her hands. "Look, we may be in the same team, but this is lopez time."
Rachel: i just wanna show you my choreography performance. I recorded it last night
Rachel opened her laptop and opened a video. Showing herself, dancing in the screen, doing the same footwork, quinn showed them. Santana set her book down and continued looking at the video. "Not bad. But you're going too fast. You gotta pace yourself. The only reason we're starting with footwork is because it's easy and teaches you balance and timing. "
Rachel slowly closed the laptop. "Sorry," she whispers. Santana sighed while looking down. "You did alright for a first timer." Rachel smiled. "thanks". Santana continued writing in her notebook. "What're writing?". Santana sighed. "god, I'm never getting this done. Sue has been busting my ass on learning the steps of her cheerleading routine. So I'm writing down the steps and practicing"
Rachel: Learning them doesn't mean to write down the steps. You're never gonna get it. Dancing is-
Santana: Dancing and cheering are different things
Rachel: slightly similar, though. Come
Rachel stood up as santana looked confused. "Wait, what are we doing?". Rachel offers a hand. "Come on." Santana slowly grabbed her hand and was pulled up by rachel. "You gotta loosen up." Rachel kneeled down and pressed a button, turning a music on. Rachel started moving her hips in a circle. "What is happening?". Santana asked. Rachel says. "C'mon, this is to loosen you up. This is what i usually do this in my alone time. " Santana looks at rachel doing a small dance routine. "ok, i see why you need some help with your choreography." Rachel laughed while pretending to wipe the counter. "Oh god. People are staring, " santana said as she looked around and saw a couple of students watching. Karofsky and azimio were pointing and laughing
Rachel: Look, I've been laughed at most of my life. Right now, it doesn't bother me
Santana says with a confused expression. "Really?". Rachel nodded as she turned around and got hit by orange slushie. Santana looks and sees a hockey player laughing while running up to david and azimio. Rachel slowly kneeled down and grabbed her laptop. "Uhh, i gotta go. I have a second pair of clothes in my locker, " she said before running downstairs as santana stares
Hallway:
Santana is walking in the hallway with brittany. "And you didn't do anything?". Brittany asked santana. "What would i supposed to do? she was already slushied. " Brittany walked up to her locker and opened her door. "You could've helped her change,"
Santana: Who cares? They get slushied every day. They're probably used to it now. She even had a second pair of clothes. Why do you care?
Brittany: we're now a team. We should look out each other
Santana: Pierce, we're in this club, so we don't get suspended
Brittany: i understand, but, don't you think we should treat them better?
Santana leaned against the lockers. "Our reputation is hanging by a thread by joining. We don't do anything to them, but we can't affect what happens to them. " Brittany sighs. "Fine, but remember that movie where this girl chose popularity over her friends. She died, a lonely girl. " Brittany walked away as santana took a deep breath
Music room:
Quinn was standing with santana and brittany by her side, standing in front of the glee club. Will says, "Take it for the top. Let's see what they learn. ". Will started playing the piano. "Five, six, seven, and eight". The cheerleaders started doing their footwork infront of the gang, who started copying their footwork the best they could. Santana notice rachel improvement, making her nod slowly
Tina accidentally tripped herself, making her fall backwards, but she caught herself when she took a step and started laughing. Quinn stopped moving and shot a glare at tina. "you missed a step. Your out, take a seat"
Kurt: it was a mistake. She's learning
Quinn: not enough apparently
Tina: N-no. I am trying
Quinn: just sit down and watch us
Will: uhh. She isn't gonna learn if she's sitting
Quinn: she's not gonna learn if she keeps messing up
Artie whispers to mercedes. "she's stsrting to talk like sue"
Quinn, overhearing artie, walks up to him. "i am not sue!" Artie rolled himself away. Quinn looked at artie for a second before looking at the other with a nervous expression before walking out of the room. Will says, "uhh. Maybe we should give her time"
Rachel: but we can't let her walk off
Will: i know, but something going on with her. We just need to let her cool off. And then we'll talk to her
Rachel slowly nodded
Later that night:
Rachel was riding her bike through a neighborhood while looking at a piece of paper. She continued riding her bike until she found the address she was looking for. Rachel looked up to see a luxury home. "quinn parents are rich?!". Rachel used her foot to push her kickstand down before climbing off of her bike and headed toward the front door to the house
Rachel climbed up the steps before knocking on the door three times and took a step back. She waited for a few seconds until a maid opened the door. "Hello?". Rachel says, "Is this the fabray home?"
Housekeeper: Yes. How can i help you?
Rachel: I'm hoping quinn is here
Housekeeper: Oh, she's up in her room. Come on in
Rachel walked in the house and looked around as a middle-aged blonde woman came down the stairs. "Oh, you must be friends with quinn. I'm her mother, judy fabray." Rachel nodded as she offered her a hand, which she shook "I'm rachel berry. Nice to meet you, is quinn home?"
Judy: yes, she's up in her room. Julia, can you get her real quick, I'm sorry
Julia: hey, you just paid me
Julia walked upstairs as judy led rachel to the living room. "so are you a cheerio aswell?". Rachel was about to talk, but judy interrupts her. "quinn is a gifted cheerleader. She's going places. Please, sit down". Rachel slowly sat down and notice a portrait of quinn with her mother, a middle-age man brown hair. And another blonde girl, but slightly taller than quinn. "you have a nice family"
Judy sat down and says "thanks. Her father working late, again. So hoe long have you been in the cheerios, i don't recognize you in her cheerleading pictures". Quinn and julia were walking downstairs and see rachel in the living room, making quinn eyes opened wide
Rachel: well that's because I'm not a cheerio. I'm in glee, and she's a member
Judy with a surpised expression, says "really?". Quinn walked in and says "rachel. What are you doing here?".
Judy: Quinn, why didn't you tell me you are in glee
Quinn: uhh, i thought i tried it out
Rachel: she's been helping us with our choreography
Judy smiled. "well, my daughter is a gifted dancer. Her sister showed her to dance". Quinn slowly looked down before judy said. "sorry, quinn". Rachel acts confused before saying. "uhh, quinn. I was hoping i can speak with you, in private"
Quinn: Uh, sure. Let's go
Quinn guided rachel upstairs and walked in the hallway and toward the last door to their right. Revealing a blue room, with a king size bed. Two night stands are set up on each side. One night stand held a lamp with photos of herself with finn, and her family. The second nightstand held an digital alarm, and a plant. To the right of the room is her closet, with her cheerios uniform in a bag and hanging
A dresser was set up to the left, with a mirror standing in the middle, with a teddy bear sitting beside the mirror. And quinn pom poms were sitting on the edge
Infront of the bed was a flat screen TV bolted to the wall
Rachel looked around the room and says. "you have a pretty big room". Quinn nodded "well my dad owns his own firm and my mom is an attorney. They pay good". Rachel notice the bear and held it up. "finn bought me that". Rachel smiled as she set it down. She then walked up toward the photos. "you have a nice family". She notice one photo of the same taller blonde, in an army uniform. Rachel grabbed the photo and showed it to quinn. "who's this?". Quinn smile faded as she walked up and took the photo from rachel hands. "don't touch that!". Rachel stepped back with a nervous expression, making quinn sigh before setting the picture back on the nightstand. "sorry. I just get sensitive with that picture. She's my sister, frannie fabray"
Rachel: she's pretty
Quinn shed a tear. "she was. I lost her in iraq". Rachel looks at quinn with a shock expression. "oh my god. I am so sorry. I didn't know". Quinn shrugged. "it's fine, look what are you doing here, I'm not gonna talk about my family". Rachel says "what happened during the glee meeting today. You just walked out and didn't came back"
Quinn: I'll give you an answer that'll explain my absent tomorrow. I quit glee
Rachel with shocked, yells. "WHAT! You just joined". Quinn nodded. "i know. But i don't care what you said, I'm quitting. I don't even care about the consequences". Rachel, with confusion, says "ok, there's something else going on, but right now I wanna ask you, why are you quitting? is it because of artie comment? it was a joke".
Quinn sat down on her bed and says "he referred me to sue. That is the worse thing you could've ever called me". Rachel sat down next to quinn and says "what's the big deal?"
Quinn: Sue publicly humiliated you weeks ago. She is a very strict person. We've been practicing before school, during lunch, free period, and after-school. And whenever were tired during practice. She makes us run 30 laps around the field to get our blood pumping. She doesn't care if your hungry, tired
Quinn looks at a photo of her sister. "or grieving. Sue is a devil as a coach". Rachel slowly nodded. "i hate sue. And today i actually became her. For yelling at that goth girl". Rachel whispers. "her name is tina". Quinn sigh. "it's not worth being her"
Rachel: Look, i barely know sue well. But your nothing like her. You're a good person.
Quinn sigh. "rachel, sometimes you are too innocent. You saw me today". Rachel says "so your used to coaching the way you were taught. But you can be your own person. That's what glee club is about, express yourself"
Quinn: I am just cheerleading with a family career as a lawyer
Rachel: do you hear yourself. Those things are a hobby and your parents dream. With more help, you can find yourself, to be who you are. Singing made me happy when i was alone. I thought that was enough, but now i know I'm happy, with glee
Quinn stares at rachel for a minute. Rachel stood up and says "if you wanna quit, then go ahead. Take the, consequences" while doing the air quotes with her fingers. "but in glee. You'll be out of sue shadow, and be yourself. Without anyone telling you what to do. I gotta go, my dads might be worried sick". Rachel walked out of quinn room as she was staring at the opened door
The next day in the school, quinn, santana, and brittany were walking in the hallway. Santana says "so, rachel got your address from ms pillsbury and followed you home?". Quinn nodded. "she convinced me to give glee another chance"
Brittany: you were planning on quitting. You could've get suspended
Quinn: i know. Maybe glee won't be so bad
Santana: we're just dancing so we can stay in school
Brittany: I'm actuslly enjoying being with them. Nobody is yelling at us
The three turned to the right in the hallway and a group of hockey players threw purple slushie in their faces. Quinn mouth fell opened as the players laugh as they walked up. "see you later, faggots". the players walked away while laughing
Now in the bathroom. Brittany was using paper towels to wipe her face while santana was pouring water in her hair. Quinn was splashing water in her face. Brittany pulled the paper towels and says "is this what we've been doing to people. We were wrong".
Quinn: my eyes still burned
Santana: rachel made it look like it didn't hurt
The bathroom door opened up, revealing rachel. "guys. I heard what happened. And in my very recent time in this school, i assume you never had a slushie in your face". Quinn nodded. "we usually do this to others". Rachel took out a bottle of stain remover and says "this could help with the stains until you get home". Brittany grabbed the bottle and spray it on her uniform. "thanks"
Santana: why are you being nice to us anyway. We put you in a dumpster. But you tried to help me get loose, and you talked to quinn last night to not quit
Rachel: well. That was only one time, i believe we should give people second chances. Beside, your not that bad
Santana: we're officially losers
Rachel: no one is a loser. You know when i felt like this on my first day, i sang. You wanna sing
Santana: we can't sing
Rachel: you don't or can't?
The cheerleaders looked at each other for a minute until rachel nodded as she took out her phone. "i see. Well, just try". Rachel put her speakers on her phone on and started moving from the song
Rachel:
When I get chills at night, I feel it deep inside
Without you, yeah
Know how to satisfy, keepin' that tempo right
Without you, yeah
Rachel continued singing infront of the girls as they stare at each other with confusion. Quinn mouth "what is happening?". Santana shrugged
Rachel:
Pictures in my mind on replay
I'm gonna touch the pain away
I know how to scream my own name
Scream my name
Brittany started moving from the beat with a smile. before joining rachel with singing, surprising santana and quinn
Brittany and rachel:
Gonna love myself, no, I don't need anybody else
Gonna love myself, no, I don't need anybody else
Can't help myself, no, I don't need anybody else
Anytime, day or night
Quinn sigh while joining the two
Quinn:
I take it nice and slow, feeling good on my own
Without you, yeah
Santana nodded before singing herself
Santana:
Got me speaking in tongues, the beautiful it comes
Without you, yeah
Rachel smiled as all four started singing, noticing the smile on quinn and santana as they sang together
All four:
Gonna love myself, no, I don't need anybody else
Rachel and brittany:
Hey!
All four:
Gonna love myself, no, I don't need anybody else
Santana:
I love me
All four:
Can't help myself, no, I don't need anybody else
Anytime, day or night
Sue was walking in the hallway until she heard the singing in the bathroom and slowly opened the bathroom and peaked in, seeing quinn, santana, and brittany singing with rachel as they were dancing alone. Sue closed the door with a frustrated expression before walking away
Music room:
Quinn, brittany, and santana were dancing infront of the group with their footwork. Brittany click her heels togethers, and the others copy the routine
Quinn turned her head and see tina copying the routine, making her smile. "your doing good, tina". Tina smile as she continued dancing
Will was smiling while watching the group practicing the routine until he pressed a button, turning the music off. "ok guys. Go home, that's enough practice". The gang grabbed their backpacks and headed out the door. Will walked up to the three cheerleaders and says "well, you guys have been improving these last couple of days"
Santana: this. This isn't so bad. It beats being yelled at
Will: good. Remember, we got another glee meeting tomorrow
The cheerleaders nodded before walking out of the music room and walked through the hallway, not knowing sue walking up behind them. "well look at these three girls. You're still here?". The three turned around and looked at sue. "yeah, why?"
Sue: Well my concern is we had cheerios practice today
Quinn shut her eyes while looking down. "oh shit". Brittany, with nervousness, says "was that today?". Sue nodded. "after-school today, and you weren't there. Why?"
Quinn: we had a glee meeting
Sue: i saw them walking out. Cheerios comes first
Santana: if we don't go to glee. We're being suspended
Sue: so this is how it is?
Sue walked away from the cheerleaders as they looked at each other with confusion
Courtyard:
Rachel was looking at different sheets of lyrics while walking until she bumped into someone, making her dropped the lyrics and scattered around the ground. Rachel looks up and see santana. "you are seriously distracted with this club". Rachel smile as she kneel down and collected the papers. "sorry, I'm picking a song. Mr schuester wants us to perform to see our progress after-school"
Santana: really? this quick, we just started learning these routines
Rachel: well i sang infront of everyone in this school and i was good, right?
Santana: you were. Alright
Rachel shrugged. "I'll take it. Anyway, do you wanna sing too, you, quinn, and brittany were good in the bathroom. You should sing with us". Santana sigh before saying. "well, maybe". A dark skin cheerio walked up and says "lopez, you talking to this loser". Santana took a deep breath before saying. "so what if i am"
Cheerio: isn't she in that new glee club
Rachel: yes. And so is she
Cheerio looks at santana and says "yeah, i heard what happened. Bet you wish you chosen suspension, right?". Santana looks at the cheerio with shock. "emily!"she said through her gritted teeth. Rachel looks confused before saying. "what is she talking about?". Emily started laughing before saying. "Santana, quinn, and brittany were caught sneaking into mr schuester office with a tape of his dancing skills. They were given a choice to either join glee or get suspended". Santana grabbed emily book and throw it far. "Dam, santana" emily said before running off to her book
Rachel looks at santana with a hurt expression. "wait so that is why you join glee. To avoid suspension. And taking a tape of our dance routine". Santana says "berry, it's not like that"
Rachel: for a while there, i thought you actually cared about us
Santana: yes, we were forced to join glee to avoid suspension, but. We started liking about not getting yelled at, and people helping us
Rachel: but you were forced. You didn't care aboug us
Santana: berry
Rachel walked away as santana sigh while looking down
Rachel walked toward the lunch tables, seeing tina, kurt, mercedes, artie, and rory sitting on one of the tables. "hey, rach". Mercedes say. Rachel just looked down. Kurt slowly sat up and says "Are you ok?". Rachel says "i need to tell you all something"
Quinn and brittany were walking down the stairs, in their cheerio uniforms and notice the glee gang. The two blondes walked up. "hey guys. You ready for glee today?". Mercedes shoots a glare at quinn and says "troublemakers. First you tried to ruin our dance routine and now your here with us to avoid suspension". Quinn and brittany looks shock while looking at the gang. Rory says "this hurts worse than leaving Ireland"
Quinn: look, we were gonna tell you
Kurt: and you didn't. C'mon guys, let's go
The gang walked away. Artie was being pushed by tina. Walking past the blondes, tina says "thanks f-for the l-lessons atleast". They continued walking away. Quinn looks at rachel, who said "i found out"
Quinn: we're sorry, but we did enjoy-
Rachel: save it
Rachel walked away as quinn sigh while looking down.
Beside the courtyard door, sue was leaning by a column as the cheerio walked up and says "i did what you ask"
Sue: good. Now go!
The cheerleader walked away as sue was smiling
Cafeteria:
Quinn, santana, and brittany were sitting on a table together. Brittany says "maybe we should've told them"
Santana: what's the point. They would've resent us anyway
Brittany: atleast we have cheerleading as our full attention
Quinn: you know my dad and mom have been telling me about going to school and become a lawyer. They already giving me practice test. And sue been riding my ass about cheerios. Glee club is the only free time i had. Which was nice
Brittany: i liked it the moment that rachel girl sang
Santana: you both are getting soft for that club
Quinn and brittany shrugged. "don't act like your aren't the same. Brittany saw you talking to rachel in the courtyard a few days ago". Santana whispers "ok, fine. Maybe i do like it. Just a little"
Quinn: what was that
Santana: I'm still keeping my tough side
Brittany giggled. Quinn says "we're going to that performance tonight. We taught them how to dance". The two nodded until sue walked up. "well. Your glee days are over. Don't worry, I'm sure you won't get suspended. But now we can finish what we started. After-school is cheerios practice, i hope to see you there"
Brittany: but glee
Sue: are you really picking glee over your future. Nah, that can't be right. I'll see you there
Sue walked away as quinn and santana looked down. Brittany says "you know, we're just sophmore. We don't have to think about our future in 3 years". Santana and quinn shared a look
Auditorium:
In the backstage. Will was standing infront of the glee club. "i know you all are angry"
Mercedes: how can you force them to join us, even after they tried to sabotage us
Will: they needed to learn what glee is meant for. Did they fit in or what?
Kurt: if that's the truth, why didn't you say anything to us
Will walked around frustrated before saying. "I knew you were gonna act like this. I didn't want them being forced in glee affect your judgment. Rachel, you said everyone deserve a chance"
Rachel: well. Maybe i overreacted
Mercedes: No, they tried to ruin our dance routine before they joined. I don't trust them
Voice: you know it's rude to talk about people behind their backs
The glee club turned around, seeing quinn, santana, and brittany. "don't you guys have cheerio practice?"
Quinn: we chose this club. Look, i know you all are angry at us for trying to sabotage you guys, but we have to admit. This is the only club that i don't have to worry about my future or getting yelled out. It's a break for me
Santana: And when all of you get slushied, you don't seem bothered
Kurt: we're used to it
Santana: But still. You have my respect
Brittany: i just enjoyed dancing
Santana walked up toward the three and said, "I don't have a lot of practice with this, but. We're sorry about everything. " Quinn nodded. "We hope you can forgive us." Rachel slowly smiled. "Another thing to know about me. I forgive very easily. " Rachel walked up and gave santana a hug, making her look uncomfortable before returning the hug. Mercedes whispers to kurt. "we can't out vote. But keep an eye on them. " Kurt nodded at her
Will: It looks like Glee actually matured you three. Just what i was hoping for
Artie: But what about cheerios
Brittany: we're still members, but we'll learn to balance both
Quinn: Trust us. Sue will try to stop us from being both
Will: Whatever happens. We'll be here for you
The three cheerios smiled.
Now, in the auditorium, I was sitting behind the desk while watching the group rehearsing. The glee club was standing in a line. "Brittany, rory, mercedes, quinn, rachel, santana, kurt, tina, and artie." Rachel started singing a few minutes after the music started
Rachel:
I know this pain
Mercedes, quinn, and santana:
I know this pain
Rachel:
Why do you lock yourself up in these chains?
The gang started slapping their left hips while jerking their right leg
Kurt, tina, and rory:
these chains
Rachel:
No one can change your life except for you
Don't ever let anyone step all over you
Quinn took a step up and started singing herself
Quinn:
Just open your heart and your mind
All:
mmm
Rachel and santana:
Is it really fair to feel this way inside?
All:
woah
Will was smiling, not knowing Sue was watching by the door with an angry expression as she was staring at quinn, santana, and brittany
Brittany and mercedes face each other and start their footwork. Tina and kurt looked at each other before doing the same. Quinn, rachel, and santana took a step up while singing
Quinn, santana, and rachel:
Some day, somebody's gonna make you want to turn around and say goodbye
Mercedes grabbed brittany hand and twirled her around. Kurt did the same with tina. Artie rolled up and caught tina by her hips. Rory did the same with brittany
Rachel, quinn, and santana:
Until then, baby, are you going to let 'em hold you down and make you cry?
Mercedes and tina switch their places while artie and rory ran across the stage and past each other. Rory turned around and walked backward while artie turned his wheelchair and rolled himself backward until he parked himself near mercedes
Santana, rachel, and quinn:
Don't you know?
Don't you know, things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold... on for one more day
Brittany smiled at kurt as they danced together
Santana, rachel, and quinn:
Can you hold... on for one more day?
Things'll go your way...
Hold on for one more day
Rory and brittany ran up on the steps and faced the audience seats while mercedes and kurt walked up and stood by them. Tina and santana did the same as artie rolled himself by santana. Quinn and rachel walked up and stood in front of the gang and sang their final note
All:
Hold on for one more day!
All 9 bow their heads as the music ended. Sue slowly walked out of the auditorium in anger while Will was proudly watching the group performance
Not my best, but hey atleast the three cheerleaders have a new path to follow with new friends
Next one is mainly about kurt
