Special Education

"Mr. Schuester, I have an announcement," Rachel said as the teacher came into the room. "I've selected the perfect moving ballad for Finn and I to sing to launch our performance at sectionals."

Jayden rolled her eyes at her sister's self-centeredness. She loved her, but there were times when she hated being related to her. Just simply having the last name 'Berry' put a target on her back since the entire school hated the diva's guts, and sometimes took their frustrations out on her instead.

For instance, just that morning a group of jocks had slushied her for something that Rachel had done. Being her little sister shouldn't come with that kind of price. She shouldn't be getting targeted or punished for things her sister did.

But the worst part was that Rachel didn't ever seem to learn from her mistakes and kept making them over and over again.

But she does love her.

Sometimes.

"Me first. Two things," Mr. Schue said. "First, our competition at sectionals are your classic stool choirs. Great voices, but they don't move. Now, if we're gonna beat them, we need to do what they can't. Dance. Which is why I've decided to feature Brittany and Mike Chang's sweet moves in our performance."

"Wait, they're gonna dance in front of me while I sing my solo?" Rachel frowned.

"Shut up and let Britt have her moment, Rach," Jayden sighed.

"You're not getting a solo for this competition, Rachel," Mr. Schue said.

"Finally," Santana smirked. "So, what song does my girl Jayden get to sing?"

Jayden bit her tongue to keep from smiling like an idiot, the usual butterflies filling her stomach as she fought back a blush. Sure, she was still a little hurt by what Santana had said to her at the wedding, but she had apologized and was working on making things right again.

"I was thinking that the winners of our duets competition would take the leads."

"Ken and Barbie?" Rachel scoffed. "Wait, are you trying to throw this?"

"You used to be just sort of unlikable, but now, I pretty much feel like punching you every time you open your mouth," Quinn quipped.

"Okay, listen," Mr. Schue sighed. "I have talked the talk about everyone in here feeling special for over a year now, but frankly, I haven't walked the walk. I mean, we have got a lot of talent here, and I'm gonna highlight it."

"Do something!" Rachel whispered harshly to Finn.

"Look, I'm all for pumping up the team, making everyone feel special, but that's for practice," Finn said. "You don't take the star quarterback out before the big game."

"Easy to say when you're the star quarterback," Tina scoffed.

"This isn't just about me. This is about the team."

"You are such a hypocrite," Santana scoffed.

"Like you even know what that means," Rachel rolled her eyes.

"It means that your boyfriend is full of crap, hobbit!"

"You know what?" Rachel scoffed, standing up and turning around to face Santana. "Ever since the wedding you've been up my butt and I am sick of it!"

"C'mon, Rachel, she's not worth it," Finn whispered.

"Oh really? Cause that's not what you thought last year in that motel room," Santana said, narrowing her eyes as Rachel's face fell. "That's right, Yentl. Your sweetheart? He's been lying to you, cause he and I totally got it on last year."
