CHAPTER XXXII : DIVA

"Diva," Ms. P said, announcing this week's lesson "So, now that we're back in the game, we've got to come strong. Diva Week is all about finding your inner powerhouse. Miss Pillsbury" Finn said, explaining further "That's right. The Online Urban Dictionary defines a diva as 'a fierce, often temperamental singer who comes correct. She is not a trick-ass ho and she does not sweat da haterz" Ms. P said, reading off of a flashcard "Great, so I guess the guys are screwed this week" Jake said dejectedly "Um, guys can be divas too" Blaine said "Sure they can, Blainie" I said, patting his knee "That's right, we all have inner divas. I myself have been considered quite a diva at many a local restaurant because I know what I want and I will send a dish back" Ms. P continued talking but I focused in on the conversation in front of me "You all might as well just quit while you're ahead because there are only two ways to spell Unique, and one of them is. D-I-V-A
Diva. M'kay? Shanté, I stay, and it will be brought, dished out, served, and mopped up by the time you even pick out a wig. Looking at you, clocking that sadness" Unique said, pointing a finger at Tina "I have more diva in my little finger than you have in your whole angry inch, Wade-Unique" Tina retorted sassily "Tina, you've kind of been talking some ridiculous trash for months, unchallenged, and that stops now" Marley said, shutting Tina up. I high-fived Marley with a little wink "Look, we all know that I'm going to win this, I beat Rachel and Mercedes for the role of Maria and I stood up to Rachel the biggest 'diva' my first week here, I also called out Sue for being racist to you Tina, so you know, I think everybody knows that I'm the biggest diva" I said, flicking my hair over my shoulder "Listen, guys can be divas" Blaine interjected again "You guys, I'm going to win Diva Week. And do you know how I know that? It's because..."

During the song, we ended up in the auditorium in amazing outfits, covered with sequins glitter, and feather boas. When the song was over we were back in our seats in the choir room as Ms. P finished her diva story. I leaned forward in my chair, my eyebrows furrowed "Did we all just have a collective daydream/hallucination?" I asked confusedly. Everyone nodded their heads, not saying anything "This school gets weirder and weirder every day"

I was sick, my head felt like it was trapped in a plastic bag filled with water and I was coughing trying to get air. But, I was determined to power through it for my diva performance. I coughed slightly as I put my stuff away in my locker and Tina came walking up to me "Here, I put together a little cold buster kit for you" She said, handing me a plastic Tupperware box "Cool, uh, how did you know?" I asked confusedly "Your nose was red yesterday. Start with cough drops, then two packs of vitamin C, a cup of my homemade Chinese chicken soup, and finish with my secret weapon night-time cold medicine" She explained "Aw, thank you. I appreciate this. It's gonna have me feeling better in no time, except for maybe the night-time cold medicine" "Why? It's amazing" I sighed and closed my locker "Just makes me really sleepy and woozy, which is something I can't afford to be right now, not with Diva Week in full swing. I want to be able to prove that men can be divas, too, which is why I'm gonna give them a full dose of some Freddie Mercury just to show how the boys can really bring some diva attitude" I explained "Mr. Anderson, you find new ways to inspire me every day" Tina said sweetly. I felt slightly uncomfortable whenever she complimented me because, she wasn't very good at hiding her flirting, but I always just let it slide, I could tell it was bothering Naya though "Aw. Thanks, Tina" We headed to the choir room, in time for my performance.

"Whoo! Go, Blaine!" Naya shouted at the end of the performance.

"They say that true divas aren't really mortal. They're more like the Loch Ness Monster or, or Sméagol" Finn said, the next day in Glee Club "Interesting analogy" I noted, confusedly "Divas walk Yeah and they talk and they breathe brilliance, so here to demonstrate that elusive brilliance is a very special guest diva" "Raven-Symone" Brittany guess hopefully "All the way from Louisville, give it up for Miss Santana Lopez!" Finn announced as Santana came running into the room in her cheerleading uniform and with her cheerleader friends.

"Santana, that was simply the greatest moment in show business history. But how come you didn't tell me you were coming to town?" Brittany asked, a hint of saltiness in her voice "You know, I think that the better question is, why didn't you tell me that you were dating Sam? I had just left a comment on my favorite Rizzoli & Isles lesbian subtext blog when I heard the news. Oh, and before I forget, allow me to introduce my backup, and my girlfriend, Elaine. And by girlfriend, I mean out and proud, lipstick-loving, After-Ellen-reading girlfriend" "Okay, thank you, Santana. Tomorrow we have the one and only, Ms. Natalia Vasquez!"

It was my turn to perform, and I was so ready. I got Brittany and Kitty to be my backup dancers and we even moved into the auditorium. I wore the best outfit I could think of and it 100% went with what my song was about. It was a short blue, sequined dress.
