We Are Endgame

Sectionals

Aldo's Pov

Today is sectionals. And I am beyond nervous. I keep pacing back and forth in the hall of McKinley. My mind is racing. Ivwasmt like this last year. Well I guess it is because this is a new year. My soon to be parents will be watching me. I have a solo and a duet with the girl I am dating. No pressure right. Wrong. I am not as good as anyone else. Why me. All these negative thoughts racing in my head. I didn't hear the click of her heels. I didn't notice her until she placed her warm, soft hands on my face. Catching my attention.

"Hey it is okay. It is just me. Aldo. Why are you pacing back and forth?. Tell me what is the matter"

I grab her hands and hold them

"I am just nervous. Last year we didn't won and we had a really good singer and we still didn't won. What if this year is just as bad. What if I mess up the song or dance moves. In front of my new family. And they don't want me anymore. And you will hate me.for losing. So will everyone." I say all at once. Catching my breathe after

"Aldo. Shh.  Look at me. You will not fail us. You are the most determined person I know. You spent several hours after classes in the choir room with Mike nailing those dance moves. And so many days with Mercedes working on your singing. I have faith in you. We all do. And no matter what happens. Your family.  And the glee club will be there for you. No matter what happens. Win or lose. We will not hate you. Now come on. *She kissed him on the cheek and grabs him by the hand * there are three other groups today and we must watch.

We make way to the auditorium as The first group is about to perform. We sit In our designated area. I sit with Melanie. Holding her hand as Rachel smiles at us. Before I know it. The third group is about to perform and Rachel leads us all to the choir room for her speech before we perform last tonight and see who wins.  I am still nervous. But with her by my side. It feels like we have a chance. I can win. We can win

"Gather Around Everyone." Mercedes says

"It is time for the speech. And don't worry it won't be boring" Santana smiles

"I'll start" Brittany says. "This year I have seen a very talented group of kids come together and work so hard to be here tonight. Work there butts off for weeks. And I couldn't be more prouder"

"My turn. "Santana speaks again. " I have not seen this much talent in one room since we all graduated. You guys have it. Talent. I would wish you l8ck on that stage but you wont need it. Just kick some butt on that stage"
