My Sister, Quinn Fabray

Chapter 2: Glee Club

Chapter 2

They walked into the Choir Room together and took seats in the very back. As everyone piled into their seats they all looked at Violet strangely. You could even hear a few murmurs to one another asking who she was.

Just then, some man with the weirdest looking curly hair walked in. “Alright!” he exclaimed. “Who's ready for another year of Glee Club?” he asked looking around. His eyes then stopped on Violet. “Who are you?”

Violet looked up. “My name is...”

“Violet?!” someone said before she could. It was her sister, Quinn. “What are you doing here?”

“Mom didn't tell you a switched schools?” Violet asked.

Quinn's mouth fell open. “Why did you switch schools?” Quinn asked.

“I really had no choice, I was expelled from Carmel,” Violet told her.

“How?” Puck asked interested.

“Carmel?” the man asked.

“Yeah, I went to Carmel High School and got expelled because I was 'sick' all the time,” she announced.

Then a short girl with a big nose raised her hand. “Mr Schue,” she said, “doesn't she have to try out?”

The teacher nodded. “Yes, she does,” he said. “Come on now, come up and give us what you've got.”

Violet then stood up and walked to the center of the room. “Do I sing acapella?” she asked.

“You can, or you can sing with Brad accompanying you,” the teacher told her.

“Who's...?” she looked around and saw a blonde man sitting at the piano with big glasses. “Oh.”

“Uh, Mr. Schue?” Puck asked. “I could play the guitar for her.” He then looked at Violet. “Is that okay?”

Violet nodded and pulled up the sheet music on Google. Puck grabbed his guitar and started to tune it up. She then handed him her phone for the sheet music.

Violet cleared her throat and took a deep breath. “I have a dream, a song to sing. To help me cope, with everything,” she sang shakily. She then looked at the back wall and sang with more confidence. “If you see the wonder, of a fairy tale. You can take the future, even if you fail. I believe in angels, something good in everything I see.”

She then looked over at Puck playing the guitar. “I believe in angels, when I know the time is right for me,” she sang as she looked at him. She then looked back at the audience. “I'll cross the stream, I have a dream.”

When she finished, the room roared with applause. Violet then took her seat in the back of the room. “What's you name?” the teacher asked her.

“Violet,” she answered.

“Hello, Violet,” he greeted. “I'm Mr. Schue, your Glee Club teacher.”

Violet smiled widely. “I got in?” she asked.

“Why wouldn't you get in?” Puck asked sitting down next to her. “You're amazing.”

Violet blushed. “Thank you,” she said.

After class, Violet walked out the door. “Wait! Violet!” someone called after her.

Violet turned and saw the short big nosed girl behind her. “Yes?” she asked.

“Hi, my name is Rachel Berry,” she said offering her hand to shake.

Violet hesitantly shook it back. “Violet Fabray,” she responded.

“Why I Have A Dream?” Rachel asked.

Violet shrugged. “I love the song, and it's from one of my favorite musicals.”

“One of your favorite musicals?” Rachel asked. “What is your favorite?”

“Les Miserables,” she answered almost immediately. “But I also love Phantom of the Opera, Chicago, Mamma Mia!, Love Never Dies, and Sweeney Todd.”

“I like Funny Girl,” Rachel told her. “But Les Miserables comes in a close second.”

“Cool,” Violet awkwardly said. “I have to get to class.”

“What class?” Rachel asked.

“Science,” Violet replied.

“With who?” Rachel asked.

“Mrs. Whosivitz.”

Rachel gasped. “Me too!” she exclaimed. “Let's walk together.”

“Okay...” Violet said. Rachel and Violet then started to walk to Science.

“So, are you interested in trying out for the school musical?” Rachel asked Violet.

Violet shrugged. “What is it?” Violet wondered.

“It was going to be Rocky Horror, but Mr. Schue thought it was a little old for us,” Rachel explained.

“Then what is it now?” Violet asked impatiently.

Rachel grinned. She then stopped Violet in the hall and whispered into her ear. Violet's mouth dropped. She then made a really awkward noise that made everyone stare at her. For the entire Science class, Violet and Rachel talked about the musical.
