Jacob Artist as Jake Puckerman ------------>
---------------------------------------
Well the three of us were just stood in the hallway looking around awkwardly.
"So...your real name is Effy?" Ryder asked me trying to break the ice. A few days ago I felt like I could talk to this boy about anything.
"Yeah...your real name is Ryder?" I laughed awkwardly looking to Jake for some assistance.
"So you met at a bar?" Jake enquired trying to strike up a conversation.
"Yeah...on Monday" I responded. That was all I could think of saying, nothing else came to mind.
"Well...you need a ride home?" Jake asked me. I nodded.
"I guess so" I moaned.
"You're still coming around right?" Jake asked Ryder quietly thinking that I couldn't hear. He looked to me.
"If it's alright with your sister" Ryder replied.
"Yeah it's fine with me" I lied, it was going to be really awkward seeing him around the house but I was probably going to stay in my room tonight.
"I'll meet you by the car" I replied turning on my heels. I spotted Kitty and Sam down the corridor and I ran to them.
"Hey you want to come to mine tonight?" I asked Sam. Kitty cleared her throat.
"What...like a date?" Sam asked uncertain. I nodded.
"I guess so yes" I replied with a huge grin on my face. Sam smiled back at me.
"Cool" Sam giggled.
"Come around about eightish?" I suggested. Kitty cleared her throat again. I turned to her.
"You can come around now...I need help stretching anyway" I laughed. Kitty giggled.
"Let's go" Kitty laughed. We headed to the car.
---------------------------------------
"Alright so you have one of hottest guys at McKinley around what are you going to wear?" Kitty asked while she tore through my wardrobe.
"I was thinking a dress top, leather jacket and my black wedge heels" I explained. Kitty turned to me with a baseball top with NYU sprawled on it.
"You have to let me borrow this?" Kitty enquired happily. I laughed.
"Keep it" I explained jumping off my bed. I took off my cheer uniform.
"Wow lace bra and panties, someone planning on getting lucky tonight?" Kitty asked looking me up and down. I laughed and did a little twirl.
"Would it be so bad if I did. Sam seems like a nice guy and he's hot" I replied pulling the dress top on. It barely covered the top of my thighs. Kitty's jaw dropped.
"Wow you look hot" Kitty gasped. I pulled on the shoes and the jacket.
"Are you planning on going somewhere special?" Kitty asked. We both laughed at that.
"Hell no I'm taking him to a club" I responded while I played with my hair viscously.
"Sam in a club?" Kitty snorted happily. I looked at her confused like.
"Sam in a club he's more of the farm/ Cowboy boy than the club boy" Kitty explained she pulled the top on. I handed her a denim skirt.
"Well then I'm tapped for ideas" I sighed. What could I do that we would both enjoy? Apart from sex, I couldn't think of anything.
"Why don't you just order in and watch a movie?" Kitty suggested. I thought about that, perfect.
"The only cowboy movie I can think of is Brokeback mountain" I laughed. Kitty giggled.
"I don't think Sam'll want to watch that" Kitty laughed.
"Well then...we're going to watch the spongebob movie" I decided, I was completely out of ideas. I was usually so good at this sort of thing. In LA I was kind of a slut.
"Okay on that note I'm going to leave. See you tomorrow morning" Kitty laughed. She picked up her stuff and left the room. Now I was alone, it was half six. Sam wasn't coming around for another hour and a half, which meant the movie wouldn't finish for another two hours and in turn meant I wouldn't be riding him another four hours. I looked around for something to do, Jake and Ryder had stolen the x-box to play the new GTA. Yeah they were kind of losers. Oh crap now I was thinking about Ryder again. No, no, no I was hanging out with Sam tonight. Me and Ryder were never really anything so I needed to push it out of my mind.
---------------------------------------
Ryder's POV
God I just wanted to cross the hall and talk to Effy but I needed to stop myself. She was actually perfect for me. She was funny, she loved maroon 5, she didn't make fun of my Starwars addiction and she had been through a lot of stuff in her life as well. She was pretty hot as well. But I promised myself after what happened with Wade or Unique or what ever the hell it was calling itself these day that I was going to take this time to reflect and try and grow as a person. Not jump at the first girl who shows me a little attention.
"Dude, why are you sat in here when you obviously want to be across the hall with my sister?" Jake enquired after he paused the game. Damn I was half way through something as well, that was going to piss me off. And what did he mean what was I doing here? Why wasn't I across the hall with Effy? I didn't want to be with Effy. I couldn't believe that I was getting this worked up over a girl who I had known less than a week, and the majority of the week I thought she was called Katherine. I didn't know Effy. Plus she had already lied to me, it would be like self sabotage if I pursued a relationship that I could see ending in flames right?
"Dude I don't have feelings for your sister" I pointed out, was it weird that I was talking about this with Effy's brother, my best friend. Jake gave me a tired look.
"Is this going to be one of those 'no I don't have feelings for her' situations where a year down the line you'll confess your undying love for her but it'll be too late?" Jake asked me like it happened on a weekly basis. It took me a minute to grasp what he had actually asked. I shook my head. No, it wasn't anything against Effy, it's just that I had sworn of women at the moment.
"NO, I've sworn off all relationships at the moment. Which includes your sister. Dude it's weird that you even want to talk about this, let alone that you're encouraging to pursue your sister" I shrieked. I didn't know why he was getting so involved in this.
"Because my mom is leaving and I want Effy to be able to count on people other than me. Let's face it Puck is no role model..." Jake explained, he un-paused the game and my car crashed. I sighed, I guess I could at least talk to her, god there hadn't been a girl since Marley who got me this messed up in the head. I chose not to bring that up since it would make things really awkward. I heard the door across the hall slam shut. It was like the things I had just concreted in my head had crumbled apart. I leapt to my feet.
"I'm going to get snacks" I muttered to Jake, I didn't check if he had heard me or not, I was like a man possessed. I opened the door to Jake's room and in the hallway stood Effy. She looked hot, no man stick to your code. No chicks!!!!!!. But I just couldn't help myself she was beautiful. She looked up from her phone.
"Hey Ryd" she giggled. Her laugh was so cute, oh my god would you stop yourself? This was torture. I guess I hadn't realised how much that I actually like Effy.
"Hey Ef" I snorted in a loud voice that sounded so surreal, like it wasn't even me saying it, it sounded like a clown on helium it was that much like a high pitched squeak. She looked up at me uncertainly.
"You okay?" she asked. Oh crap I was staring.
"Yeah just getting snacks" I laughed before waving the bowl in front of her. Actually it was less of a wave and more of a vigorous constant shake that seemed like it lasted for hours. She gave that nod, the one you see in movies. The nod that said 'Okay I'm going to agree with this guy because he seems like a mental patient'. Why was I turning into a complete dork around her? More than usual I mean.
"Okay well the kitchens downstairs" she explained, I nodded.
"Right well I guess I'll see you later" I explained before wandering off towards the kitchen. I punched the wall when I was out of view
---------------------------------------
Effy's POV
Well that was awkward, Ryder and me talking, awkward. I hope that it wasn't always going to be like this, after all we had the same friends, he was best friends with my brother. I looked at my phone, eight o'clock. A knock came at the front door. Oh crap he was here and Ryder was downstairs. I rushed down the stairs while yelling 'leave the door' but Ryder had already answered the door. Sam stood in the doorway in a shirt, jeans and white trainers. He looked damn hot, his hair was combed over as well and his aftershave was intoxicate. They were both looking at me awkwardly.
"Well this is awkward in a none funny way" I muttered to myself, I grabbed my bag and walked to the door. I tried not to look at Ryder but I could see the pain on his face out the corner of my eye. Sam hugged me tightly. I turned to Ryder.
"Tell Jake I'll be back later?" I asked him quietly. He nodded slowly.
"Where are you two going?" Ryder enquired, I turned to glare at him. He wasn't...he wouldn't...would he? He wouldn't try to delay thing?
"Out" I shouted through my teeth hoping he would pick up my point. He laughed. Evil bastard.
"Where?" he laughed grinning at me evilly.
"Probably the movies" Sam replied, he linked arms with me and I felt his bulging arm muscles. Hopefully no one heard my little sigh of pleasure.
"What are you going to see then?" Ryder asked, he leant against the door frame.
"I don't know...we'll see when we get there" I growled. My teeth were starting to hurt from all the gritting. He was trying to...he was trying to make things awkward and delay us leaving.
"Well the movie is starting soon so let's go" Sam laughed while looking nervously at Ryder. He was probably freaking out. I was kind of angry but I wasn't freaking out. I shook my head slowly at Ryder. Time for a little vengeance.
"Sure Sam..." I began. I grasped Sam's hand just to rub it in Ryder's face. Ryder's smile turned to a blank expression. Oh yeah I was really getting some pay back.
"...wow your arm muscles are intense" I giggled while feeling his arm.
"Thanks maybe you could come to gym with me tomorrow?" Sam laughed as we walked down the garden path. Crap, now was the guilt. I looked back at Ryder. He was stood in the doorway watching us leave, all I wanted to do was run back and hug him. No...No...No. I'm going on a date with Sam. I wished it was Ryder though. No, I don't, yes I do, No I don't.
---------------------------------------
We ended up watching a re-run of Rock of ages, Sam didn't have a lot of money and the movies were expensive and he got embarrassed so I said I would rather watch a re-run of rock of ages. I loved rock of ages and we sang along to pretty much every song, which meant we were getting pretty weird looks from all the other people around us and we were even threatened to be thrown out at one point. All in all I had a really good time though. Sam drove me home and parked outside on the street.
"Tonight was great, I had such a good time" I giggled when Sam stopped the car. He turned to me, he had a conflicting look on his face.
"Okay Ef I need to tell you something and since I don't really know you that well it won't seem as weird hopefully?" Sam explained, but it came out more as a question. Oh god he was an addict wasn't he? It's always the hot guys who you think that you really like. Sssssshhh, I mentally slapped myself. Just hear what he has to say it can't be that bad, just keep reassuring yourself.
"Effy...I think...that I...be gay" Sam explained, his eyes suddenly dilated red and his face went pale. Tears streamed down his cheek and eventually he burst out crying.
"Oh god I'm a total mess" he sobbed while banging his head on the dashboard. This was not what I was expecting to hear but in a way I was kind of relieved. Him being gay was okay, if he was like an addict I probably would never have talked to him again. Though now I get a gay best friend. I reaches out and stopped him.
"Sam...it's okay" I reassured him in a soothing tone. I pulled him into a hug, he rested his head on my chest which was alright because he was gay and I wrapped my arms around his head.
"How is it okay...I like dick" Sam sobbed into my chest. I laughed and kissed his forehead.
"So..?" I enquired. Being gay wasn't a bad thing. I kind of felt more comfortable around Sam now as well and I wouldn't feel awkward if he asked me out again since I actually think I kind of like Ryder. He looked up at me, his face all red and puffy from the intense sob session.
"Guys aren't supposed to like dick" He choked before burying his face in my chest again.
"Sam do you like dick or do you just like one persons dick?" I enquired, that would make thing totally different. He looked up at me with a new found clarity on his face. Like all of his problems had suddenly vanished into thin air.
"...Oh my god I gay for Blaine" he muttered, I suspect to himself but since I was inches away from him I heard him. Wait did he just say that he was gay for Blaine?
"Wait gay for Blaine?" I shrieked. This was big news. In the space of ten minutes I had found out that Sam was gay, he was gay for Blaine and that Blaine was possibly gay.
"Promise me you won't tell?" Sam asked, his voice was still a little cracked up from the crying. I wouldn't dream of ever telling anyone, my friend back in LA was outed and he went through hell and tried to kill himself.
"I would never..." I explained pecking him on the forehead one last time. He laughed. I hopped out of the car.
"You're still going to be my gay best friend though right?" I joked while leaning through the window. He playfully tapped my seat.
"Do one" he laughed before his car roared into life.
"Pick me up tomorrow" I ordered. I turned around and began up the garden path.
"Will do" Sam shouted from behind me, I heard him drive off down the street. Oh yeah I was definitely going to like it here.
---------------------------------------
The whole of the New Directions were getting ready in the choir room. Us girls were wearing t-shirts with 'New Directions' printed on them and mini-skirts and black converses. The guys were wearing t-shirts with 'Join now' printed on them and black skinny jeans. I had my hair in messy pig tails and had fake hipster glasses resting on my face. Sam and Marley were getting changed either side of me.
"So why did Ryder quit the glee club?" I enquired randomly, I really think I was starting to like him. He was so funny and charming and hot and we really connected on that night at the bar. It may have only been a week but there was definitely something there.
"Why do you want to know about Ryder all of a sudden?" Marley asked with a evil voice. She knew that I liked him, now she's torturing me.
"Just curious" I replied throwing my hands up in defence. It would be so cool if he came back to glee club though, then we could sing duets and I might actually have the courage to ask him out. Tina and Kitty approached us from behind.
"Five minutes guys" Kitty explained while she started messing around with my hair and Tina messed around with my makeup. I swear she just came over to play with my hair.
"Bitch stop messing with my hair" I growled playfully, she backed up with her hands in the air in defence. Marley and Sam laughed.
"Alright guys gather around" Finn cheered when he entered the room clapping. We all fell into what everyone called a show circle.
"Alright so we're going to perform in the quad in front of most of the school. Tina, Effy and Kitty you're on lead so make it a good performance" Finn laughed. We all stuck our hands in the middle of the circle on top of each other.
"Let's punch it" Effy ordered, everyone looked at me looking confused. Yeah I didn't even know what I was saying. We all threw our hands in the air.
"New Directions" we all cheered. This was my first real performance in New Directions and I was really nervous and at the same time. We headed out to the quad.
---------------------------------------
Damn it was busy, lunchtime rush. I spotted a group of jocks in the centre of the quad and Ryder was with them. That made things about ten times worse and now I was more nervous. Kitty tapped me on the shoulder and I nodded before running and jumping on one of the table.
"Hey Kitty" I shouted, everyone's head turned in my direction. Kitty ran to the top of the stairs.
"Hey Effy" she replied while doing the splits on he stair railings. The rest of the New Directions came running out.

"Effy:
Lyin' in my bed I hear the clock tick
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion
Is nothing new
Flashback warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcase of memories
Time after

Kitty:
Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me I can't hear
What you've said
Then you say go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

Tina and Marley:
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

Effy and Kitty:
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

Jake, Blaine and Sam:
After my picture fades and darkness
Has turned to gray
Watching through windows
You're wondering if I'm okay
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time

New Directions:
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

You said go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

Time after time
Time after time

Effy:
Time after time" We all sang while we danced around the quad. On the last line I did a box split and the crowd cheered. I spotted Ryder on his feet clapping and wolf whistling. I didn't even know I could do the box splits. Marley ran up and hugged me.
"Join New Directions" I ordered before we all ran back to the changing rooms.
---------------------------------------
"Alright guys that was an amazing performance yesterday and we've had some people already sign up for auditions" Mr Shue announced when he rushed into the choir room with a stack of paper work in his hand and a mug of steaming hot coffee. I was getting compliments all day about our performance yesterday actually. I was the talk of the school in a positive way for once. Which was a nice change of pace.
"When are the auditions?" Artie enquired while he wheeled in slowly. That was a good question, I kind of wanted to sit in on the auditions, I loved the way that a new talent is discovered.
"I think we should hold the at the start of next well, you know then we have a whole week" Finn explained while he polished the nationals trophy from last years nationals. No matter what ever trophy you looked at you could always see your reflection.
"Well let's wrap this week up" Marley decided as she jumped to her feet. A knock came at the choir room door. Ryder was stood in the doorway.
"Ryder?" Mr Shue asked.
"I want to be in glee again" he explained, he was looking directly at me while he spoke.
"Okay...well welcome back" Mr Shue cheered. He came and sat next to me.
"Hey" he chuckled. I smiled, oh crap I definitely liked him. I couldn't so anything about it though, I kind of agreed to be Sam's beard until he was ready to come out.
"Hey yourself" I giggled. It was weird making small talk with him since he basically knew my whole life story.
"Alright...Marley said group number time" Kitty cheered.
---------------------------------------
We all gathered on the stage. The girls wearing leggings and tops with 'party' printed on them. The boys were wearing skinny jeans and vests. I on the other hand drew the short straw and got stuck with lycra hot pants, a crop top with 'dope' printed on it, legging that went to the top of my kneecaps and wedge heel boots. If people didn't think that I was a slut before, they definitely would now. There was a couch on the middle of the auditorium. Sam was sat in the middle, Blaine was on the left and Ryder on the right. I was sat on Sam's lap with my legs either side of his hips and I was swaying around, the band began playing. Marley, Unique, Sugar, Kitty and Tina all entered from the side of the stage and laid at the very front of the the stage. Jake, Artie and Joe entered with Giant bears attached to their backs, like a backpack.

"Boys (Effy):
Its our party we can do what we want (no drama)
Its our party we can say what we want (Mike will made)
Its our party we can love who we want
We can kiss who we want
We can live how we want

Its our party we can do what we want
Its our party we can say what we want
Its our party we can love who we want
We can kiss who we want
We can live how we want" The boy and me sang. I put my leg over Sam's head and laid on his back, swaying my legs back and forth.

"Effy (Marley):
Red cups and sweaty bodies everywhere
Hands in the air like we don't care
Cause we came to have so much fun now
Got somebody here might get some now

If you're not ready to go home
Can I get a "Hell, no!"? (Hell no)
Cause we gonna go all night
Till we see the sunlight alright

Girls:
So la da di da di

Dancing with Molly
Doing whatever we want
This is our house
This is our rules
And we can't stop
And we wont stop
Can't you see it's we who own the night?
Can't you see it we who bout that life
And we can't stop
And we wont stop
We run things, Things don't run we
Don't take nothing from nobody

Effy:
Its our party we can do what we want
Its our party we can say what we want
Its our party we can love who we want
We can kiss who we want
We can see who we want

To my home girls here with the big butts
Shaking it like we at a strip club
Remember only God can judge us
Forget the haters cause somebody loves ya
And everyone in line in the bathroom
Trying to get a line in the bathroom
We all so turned up here
Getting turned up yea yea

New Directions:
So la da da di

Dancing with Molly
Doing whatever we want

And we can't stop

Don't take nothing from nobody

Effy:

Yea, Yea, Yeah

New Directions:
And we can't stop, yeah
And we won't stop, oh
Can't you see it's we who own the night?
Can't you see it's we who 'bout that life?
And we can't stop
And we can't stop, yeah
And we won't stop, oh
Things don't run we
Don't take nothing from nobody
Yea, Yea, Yeah, Yeah, ehh" We all sang. I always loved this song and I knew the lyrics of by heart. For my first week this went really well. In one weeks I had three best friends Marley, Sam and Kitty. A new brother, who is like the best person in the world. A new fake boyfriend who was actually gay. A boy that I think I might like and the whole of the New Directions.
"That was great guys. Marley I want you to practice your breath control. Effy long notes and everyone else dancing" Mr Shue announced in a cheerful tone. We all gathered in a group hug.
