I have basically planned out the last chapters of this story. Want to know the final plan for the chapters? Go onto my message board and it should be there somewhere.

This has been a very highly requested chapter from Rosie aka CimFamDirectioner143 so...I'm dedicating this to her since she helped me out with some songs for it with all her requests :) And she's just awesome.

Enjoy!

"Broadway."

That one word that came out of Finn's mouth triggered something in Blake. He grinned brightly and jumped out of his seat in the front row, fist bumping the air while jumping like a member of the High School Musical cast on the movie's poster. He shouted out an excited and loud "YES!", followed by him sitting back down and taking out a notebook and a pen. He began writing down ideas for songs for him to sing.

"Moving on from Blake's moment of excitement, Broadway is something important. One of our own former members and my love, Rachel Berry but now she's Rachel Hudson has been on Broadway in a revival of Funny Girl as Fanny Brice, the lead if you guys didn't know," Finn explains, "Broadway is a place for dreamers, performers and sometimes even the kids who never got their chance in high school to perform. This week, we are going to be performing some of the best Broadway songs."

Blake's hand shoots into the air.

"Yes, Blake?" Finn asks.

"I am willing to sing more than one song or just be apart of more than one song. I have a long list of them on this list." Blake says, pointing to the notebook paper covered in song titles.

"That is dedication, Blake." Finn says, surprised at the long list of songs.

"Blake, you are way too excited for this." Natalie says.

Blake smiles at her then gets an idea for another song, writing it down on the piece of paper.

Ryley sits in her living room that afternoon with Angie sitting next to her. Some crap movie's playing on the TV. Neither were watching it though. They were just throwing food into each other's mouths from Ryley's bowl of popcorn and Angie's bowl of Reese's Piece mixed with M&Ms.

"So has Ryder received his letters of acceptance from any colleges yet?" Angie asks, chewing on a bit of popcorn.

"Um, no." Ryley says.

"Is he or is he going to these schools?" Angie asks.

"No. He's joining the army." Ryley says, going all sad and her eyes watering.

"Oh." Angie says. She puts her bowl on the ground then puts Ryley's bowl on the ground. She moves closer to her best friend and gives her a big hug.

Ryley cries on Angie's shoulder.

"I don't know what to do. He could die out there." Ryley says.

"Maybe he might not like training and he'll return soon." Angie says.

"But what if he does?" Ryley asks.

"I don't know, Rye. I don't know." Angie says, comforting Ryley.

Ryley wipes her eyes after a while, leaving Angie's hug.

"I'm going to support him though. He has a dream and I'm his girlfriend so I should support him with his dream. " Ryley says.

"Even though you hate it?" Angie asks.

"Even if I hate it." Ryley says.

"Exactly," Angie says then smiles at her friend, "Why don't we watch some Chuck? I've only seen up to the middle of season 2 so we could watch some more?"
