Happiness [Book 2]

Chapter 49 - Love Story

After weeks and weeks of planning for Mr. Schue and Miss. Pillsbury's wedding, we'd finally gotten everything sorted and in place.

We were going to start our Valentines day week this week, and I was dissappointed Ryder wouldn't be here to hear me sing a song to him... I wasn't even sure if there was a point to singing if I was singing to no one.

I walked into Glee club on Monday, smiling at the room around me. There were pink and red hearts everywhere, and there were heaps and heaps of streamers hanging off the walls and the ceiling. I turned around under them, dancing with myself, because no one else was in the room. 

I laughed to myself and stared at the board; drawn on it was a perfectly shaped love heart with the words Valentines Day in the middle. Finn drew it, I could tell by the messy writing in the middle - Finn's writing isn't the neatest writing in the world.

I smiled and sat down in my chair at the front, looking around the room - Valentines Day would have to be my favourite holiday, and not because my birthday was the day after. 

"Hey, Marls," Jake smiled, coming into the room and sitting next to me, pushing his bag undeneath the seat.

"Hi." I grinned at him with a small save.

"Valentines Day," he sighed.

"I kind of wish Ryder was her for it, but he'll be enjoying it in Miami," I shrugged.

"You're attitude has changed a lot since he came down." 

"Yeah, and thanks again for that - it was the greatest." I smiled, giving him a quick hug from the side.

"What do girls want for Valentines day?" He asked me suddenly.

"You bought me chocolate last year, that was good." I smiled over at him, but he shook his head.

"Awesomer! It has to be better than that!" Jake urged me, and I quickly pulled my arms from his waist.

"How can anything be awesomer than chocolate?" I laughed.

"It can be, just think," He poked my arm and went into deep thought. I just stared at him as he thought, giving him a look of confusion - raising an eyebrow. "I have nothing. No ideas. Google didn't help either." Jake shook his head quickly.

"Jake," I said, putting my hand on his shoulder. "What does this girl like?" I asked him with a smile.

"Me, hopefully," he mumbled. "But I don't know!" 

I laughed at him and looked at the ground. "Don't know what? How to remove the third gross nipple you have?" Kitty smirked, walking in a taking a seat behind Jake and I.

"No, I don't what to get the girl I like Valentines Day." He sighed, giving Kitty a sad, desperate look.

"Simple," Kitty shrugged, walking down to Jake and whispering his ear.

"You're kidding me, right?" Jake said, looking up at Kitty. Kitty shook her head with a smirk. "You're disgusting."

"What'd she say?"

"You don't even want to know." Jake shuddered.

I shrugged and looked at my legs. "What's happening?" Angie shouted as she came into the room, sliding into her seat next to Jake and giving him a smile.

"Jake's stressing," I sighed with a smile.

"Why?" Angie asked, looking at him.

"Nothing," He smiled, slumping in his chair. 

I turned around to look at Kitty, who was doing hand actions and also mouthing words to me. "They're in love." I nodded at her with a smile and turned around to face the front of the room.
