In the CHOIR ROOM, Cassie yawns trying to keep her head up. It's been difficult for her since the accident and she can't quite get her crap together.
"I bet we get stuck with Mr. Sinacori as our sectionals advisor." Artie gagged.
"Oh, the creepy math teacher?"
"He's always singing when he walks down the halls." Kurt nodded, helping Cassie keep her head up.
"Hey, guys. Did any of you think it was weird the way Puck rushed to Quinn's aid during rehearsal yesterday?" Rachel asked. Cassie rolled her eyes, thinking about that moment. Kurt sighs, patting Cassie on the back.
FLASHBACK: QUINN falls during rehearsal.
"Is it the baby? Is it coming?" Finn asked.
"Think we're supposed to get hot towels." Puck said looking in horror.
"Would you both just shut up! There's, like, sweat on the floor. I slipped, okay? I'm fine!" Quinn said getting up, annoyed.
BACK TO PRESENT.
"No, not really." Mercedes hummed, nodding her head.
Kurt leaning against the piano. "Come on, you can't be serious, Rachel. Puck's always been overprotective. That's just his thing."
"I mean, he likes her. They're friends. We all know that." Artie shrugged.
CASSIE rolling her eyes. "Yeah, friends. That's what everyone keeps saying. Friends don't look at each other like that, though. It doesn't even matter, Puck's mine anyways."
"You noticed it too, huh? Thought I was imagining things." Ashlynn said.
"See? It's not just me. I've never told you guys this before, but I'm a little psychic. I can't read minds or anything yet, but I do have a sixth sense. Something is definitely going on there." Rachel explained.
"Uh, we... We got to go." Mercedes said.
Ashlynn raising an eyebrow. "Psychic, huh? What's your "sixth sense" saying about sectionals then?"
"We have to practice. There's nothing to be scared of. It's not like Carrie or anything." Rachel said.
CASSIE smirking. "Just as long as you don't start throwing people across the room with your "powers."
"Oh, and we will, as soon as Mr. Schuester names a faculty advisor to replace him." Kurt nodded.
☆
CASSIE stumbles toward the parked cars, her face flushed with frustration. The muffled sounds of chatter can be heard from the nearby school building, with people gossiping about Puck's concern for Quinn.
CASSIE'S face, eyes glazed with emotion as she zones out, their voices echoing in her mind.
RANDOM STUDENT whispers as they see Cassie walk away from class. "Did you see how Puck ran to Quinn? I think he still has feelings for her."
