Graceland (A GLEE Fanfiction)

Bittersweet

"It's our last week here," Artie said, walking with the other seniors to Glee Club. "It's a numb feeling."

"Where are you guys planning to go?" Tina asked.

"I think I'm moving to New York to find a modeling job," Sam answered, pushing Artie.

"I'm going with Sam," Blaine added. "I got accepted into NYU."

"Funny you guys say that. I'm going to NYU for film," Artie replied.

"So, I'm the only one going to LA?" Tina asked.

"Isn't Mercedes in LA? You have her."

"Yeah, but I'm gonna miss you guys."

"We're gonna miss you too, Tina," Blaine answered, hugging her.

They all walked inside the choir room, going straight to the instruments. Blaine to the piano, and Sam to the guitar. Tina and Artie stayed near the piano.

"One last time?" Artie asked, looking at the other three. They nodded, and Blaine started to play.

All:
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh [2x]

Artie:
Said goodbye, turned around
And you were gone, gone, gone
Faded into the setting sun,
Slipped away  

Tina:
But I won’t cry
Cause I know I’ll never be lonely
For you are the stars to me,
You are the light I follow

All:
I will see you again, whoa
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
'Til I see you again

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh [2x]

Sam (with Tina):
I can hear those echoes in the wind at night
Calling me back in time
(Back to you)  

Blaine and Tina:
In a place far away
Where the water meets the sky
The thought of it makes me smile
You are my tomorrow

All:
I will see you again, whoa
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
'Til I see you again  

The other members of the choir walked in as they performed.

Tina (with Blaine):
Sometimes I feel my heart is breaking
(But I stay strong and I hold on cause I know)

Artie:
I will see you again, whoa  

Sam:
This is not where it ends  

Blaine:
I will carry you with me, yeah, yeah

All:
I will see you again, whoa
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
'Til I see you again.

All (Tina):
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh [2x]
('Til I see you again,)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
'Til I see you again, whoa
('Til I see you again,)

Artie (Tina):
Said goodbye (turned around)  

All:
And you were gone, gone, gone.

"This isn't gonna be the last time you sing in here," Joe pointed out after a long silence from both the seniors and the rest of Glee Club, who had all arrived in the midst of their performance. "You know that, right?"

"You're always welcome back," Unique added as Mr. Schue walked in.

"Which is why this week isn't about saying goodbye to our graduates," he spoke. "It's about saying a See you soon to them." He quickly hugged Tina and Artie, who were part of the original six when the New Directions first started. He then looked to the future of the group, the juniors and sophomores, and smiled. "It's bittersweet, but you guys will visit, right?"
