Being back In McKinley was different for Clara. It was Senior year but she wasn't super excited about it. It was weird not having Kurt, Mike, Quinn, Mercedes, and Santana. She hated to admit it, Rachel too. Clara hadn't heard from Finn since the day he left. Even then she didn't get a goodbye. All she got was a letter. She didn't read it because Clara knew what it said. Her mom had gotten one as well. It told her how he was going to enlist in the army so he could make Dad proud. Clara wanted to yell at him for doing something so stupid. Finn was not the type who could last in the military. He didn't take orders well and she couldn't imagine him with a gun.

Clara had spent most of her summer worrying about him but she didn't tell anyone about it. To almost everyone Clara seemed fine. Rachel and her had weirdly enough gotten closer because of the situation. The two would call once a week to check in and just talk. They talked about Finn, School, and anything else. Rachel became a sister to her. She still spoke to Santana but she was busy with college meaning she couldn't talk as often or as long. Mike and her FaceTimed with Matt every Saturday and sometimes Zach would join in. Sam noticed the change in his girlfriend but whenever he brought Finn up she quickly changed the topic. He just hoped she would eventually open up about it.

On the first day of school Clara walked down the hall with Zach and his younger sister Abby. She transferred to McKinley this year and was actually going to audition for Glee club.

"Senior year, we finally made it." Zach smiled

"We did, who would have thought."

"On the top of the food chain too!" Blaine exclaimed as he jumped up next to Clara.

"Dude, you're like Batman. Stop just appearing."

Blaine ignored him and put his arm around Clara.

"Where Phoebe?"

"On her way, she slept in."

"Lucky, someone woke me up early with their alarm." Zach said eyeing Abby.
