-Cassandra pov-
Making a glee club is hard. You have to find music, get in contact with competition committees, and find students willing to sing. Right now I have Sugar, Grace, Pamela, Jasmine, Sam, and...Oh Kate!

Kate has been trying to get on Sam and graces good side though. I don't know how truly interested she is in the club. We are running tryouts now but no one really has shown. There had been so many names on the list.

Maybe it is just me...Maybe I'm the reason we have no kids. My friend trusted me enough to give me the job. Now I can't fix his stupid club. Mary and Janine have been working at the stupid as teacher since yesterday.

My mom is currently babysitting the little one. I really hope somebody shows up. I hear the door open and smile just to frown. It's just little miss Rachel.

"She's look happy to see me" I sigh and she walks over "I'm not in trouble! I'm just on break!"

"It's not you" I hold up the full list "None of the kids have come to tryout! I needed them and maybe I'm the reason they haven't come"

"How awake were you when you did that paper?" I look at her confused "Reread it"

I do and my jaw drops. I quickly grab my things and run out of the auditorium. I was half awake when I made the sheet. I run to the club room and see a bunch of student lined up.

It's not all that had signed up but it looks like enough. I turn toward Rachel with a big smile. I get my club! I didn't fail on my first real day!

"You seem to need another judge" Rachel walks to the club doors "I'll help you"

I nod and walk to the doors. This should be a piece of cake!

-Time skip-Rachel pov-
I can feel the sadness waft off of Cass. We have one more slot left. But we have already accepted the people we had. Some were there just to get out of class.

The good ones we let in. Some of them will need work but Cass has this. But now we need one more. The club doors open and a small brunette walks in.

"I..I am new here" She looks at us and looks away quickly "We were supposed to be in Lima but my mom got a cafeteria job here"

"What's your name?" The girl looks up at us confused "We need it for the paper"

"Marley" The girl accidentally hits the microphone stand over and catches it "Marley rose..I'm sorry"

"Well Marley" I give her a warm smile "Go ahead and sing!"

-Marley singing-

Some folks like to get away
Take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to Miami Beach
Or to Hollywood
But I'm taking a Greyhound
On the Hudson River Line
I'm in a New York state of mind

I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and their limousines
Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind

It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, The Daily News

It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind

It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, The Daily News
