After our win at Regionals, I was starting to enter a period of not giving a shit.
So what if NYADA isn't accepting me, I have my choice of the top schools in the country. I have a record deal, I don't care if I'm not going to NYADA. I've been talking with Melody and we've narrowed it down to Joffery Ballet and Julliard.
"Those are amazing schools. Schools that will get you on Broadway." Kitty said trying to assure me. "And schools that aren't so intense and will allow you to work on your career."
"What about you Kitty? Where do you want to go?" I asked her, opening my gym locker and pulling out my cheerio's uniform.
"I'm accepting a cheer-leading scholarship to UCLA."My eyes widened and I grabbed her and pulled her into a hug. "KITTY THAT'S AMAZING."
"Keep it down okay? I'm waiting for another option but if nothing comes next week I'm taking it."
I did a little happy jump, "You've always been a California person. I remember how happy you were at Nationals Last year. Even though we lost, you were happy about everything else!"
"I also remember the reality check you gave me."
My mind flashed back to Nationals, when I screamed at her over Michael. It was worth it, but him not so much.
"That's in the past now, Michael is at some art school in Europe, never going to see him again so who cares." I closed the locker door and walked out to the gym.
"SLOPPY BABIES! GET YOUR PERKY BEHINDS ON THE FLOOR NOW! DROP AND GIVE ME 30!"

I don't know what it was. A freak accident, maybe a miracle.
"Whatever possessed Sue Sylvester to give us a musical, is my hero." Bianca chimed, setting her lunch tray down and swinging her legs over the bench.I flicked my down over my eyes and pushed my empty tray away. "I'm thinking of Rock of Ages."
"Oh I love that one!"
"I think you'd make a perfect Sherrie Christian." Ryder smiled, kissing my cheek. I blushed and and jokingly pushed him away.
"I'll only play Sherrie if you play Drew Boley."
"Then it seems like we've got ourselves a plan." Bianca laughed. "But Jake and I get to be Constance Sack and Stacee Jaxx."
"I think Jake would make a beautiful Constance Sack."
**
Scarlet Angus.....Sherrie Christian
Ryder Lynn.....Drew Boley
Jake Puckerman.....Stacee Jaxx
Bianca Marlos......Constance Sack
Spencer Porter.....Dennis Dupree
Alistair Carson......Lonney Bennet
Mason McCarthy.....Mayor Whitmore
Kitty Wilde.....Patricia Whitmore
Jane Hayward.....Justice Charlier
Madison McCarthy.....Paula Gill
"I like how they changed Paul into Paula." Kitty chuckled. "I think she would have made a good Patrica to. But I kicked that bitches ass."
"I'm excited to work on costumes and choreography. Finn asked Mike to come back and help and Mike's bringing some friends of his from the Joffery Ballet. It might help me decide where I want to go." I beamed. Grabbing Ryder's hand and pulling him down the hallway.

"I hardly even like Santana, and don't get me started on Brittney." I groaned, setting the last of my cards in the pile. "President."
Jake's head popped up, and he started sifting threw the pile. "How in the hell?"
Ryder sighed and patted my hand. "We're going out of respect. They're getting married, we get free food and we get to dance. You love dancing and you love weddings."
"So what?"
"Look I have no idea who Santana is, or Brittney. But Jake's going and of course I'm his plus one." She joked, "So that means you have to go."
"It's an excuse to wear a pretty outfit." Ryder smirked, trying to bait me. "You like wearing pretty outfits."
"Ryder." I shushed. "All of my outfits are 'pretty', get your crap together."
"So you'll go?"
"Yes. You've given me no choice."

I was still in shock.
"I can't believe that just happened." Ryder stammered.
"I know, I thought they'd just be that couple who always talked about getting married, but had the house and the kids and all that. You know?" I chuckled.
Ryder nodded. "Well, they won't be. Do you think people think like that about us? Always together never married?"
I shrugged. "I don't know, that doesn't seem so awful. I mean marriage is just a piece of paper isn't it?"
"Yeah, but isn't it more then that too? Isn't it? Promising ourselves to one another.""Let's get married."
"Yeah I know we will, you said after school." Ryder marveled. "After we get everything in order."
"No Ryder. I mean, next week. Let's get married now."
"What about NYADA?"
"If NYADA wanted me, they would've sent a letter or something by now. I want you, I want you for the rest of my life. When I was in the hospital after the car accident, I got glimpses into my future, Rory should me version, possible outcomes and Jake and Michael were there. But you, you were my future. Of course it's not going to happen the way it did in my vision but it can happen."
Ryder's face softened. "I have no idea who Rory is, but I want you. From now until I die. I want you too."
"Then let's enjoy this night and tomorrow, we'll start planning the rest of our lives."
"I still can't believe Kurt and Blaine practically high-jacked Santana and Brittney's wedding. That's wild.""You know what's wild?" Bianca's head popped up between mine and Ryder's. "You're wearing a banging and not dancing."
"We're just going to have to change that." I laughed, grabbing Ryder and Bianca's hands and pulling them onto the dance floor we're the entire Glee Club and it's alumni waited.
