A/N
This is an AU where Marley faints at sectionals.
But no one knows about her ED
Because she's lonely and doesn't talk to a lot of people.
So Kitty never gave it to her.

TW: ED

----------------------------------------------------

Marley was getting ready for her first time performing on stage.
She had been anxious about this all week.
No one knows about what she's been struggling with for awhile.
She's hid it from her mom, and everyone.

She walked into the choir room looking drowsy.
She sat down in the back next to Unique.
She had one hand over her stomach and the other in her hair.

“Hey you alright?”
Unique asked Marley.

“Oh yeah I'm fine, I'm just tired, we had a long pop quiz in science.”
Marley lied.

“Yeah I understand that!”
Unique believed.

After a bit Mr Schuster walked in.
Getting ready to announce to the class.

“Who is excited for sectionals later this afternoon!?”
Mr Schue told the class excitedly.

All the other kids responded confidently.
Besides talking to unique.
Marley stayed quiet the whole day.

But then it was what she had been dreading.
Practice.
She felt she was going to pass out.
She felt sick since she woke up, and knew at the end of the day she would have to dance in front of hundreds of people.
But she couldn't skip sectionals, Mr Schue would never let her.

“Hey, could I actually use the bathroom real quick?”
Marley begged.

“Uhm I guess so, just come back immediately!”
Mr Schuster told Marley.

Marley started to run to the bathroom.
Luckily no one was in there so she had it all to herself.
She sat in a stall trying to calm down.
She could just drive home, but she didn't have the energy for that.

After a while of lounging in the stall.
She heard kids walking in the hallways,
So she got the idea it was time to go.
She got up and felt lightheaded.
She started walking out in the hallway.
She was walking out to her car with her head hung low.

***

It was time.
She had to go back to School, for the awaited sectionals.
She drove to the school with her mom.
They made it to the school, Marley went into the choir room, as her mom walked to the auditorium.

She sat down in the choir room, watching everyone practice and chat while waiting.
Marley was shaking, her eyes were red from slightly crying before hopping in the car.

After waiting around like sitting ducks.
It was time for the new directions to go on stage.
They were last to go up and perform.

They were performing Gangnam Style, until at the end when Marley started to feel lightheaded.
She knew down in her gut that something bad was going to go down.

And everything went black.

Some in the audience noticed her fall down.
And then the people around her.
