I woke up the next morning. My alarm was going off. I got ready for school. I grabbed my stuff to head to school. My mom drives me to school. I get there early because my mom is the lunch lady. Some people tease her about it. Then they is my glee friends and she loves them. We finally got to school. We got to school. I said go bye to my mom. I walked down the hallway. I'm so confused with this. I walked into the glee room putting my stuff on a chair. I grabbed my iPod and picked a song. The song started to play. I started to sing.

Since the day they got married

He'd been prayin for a little baby boy

Someone he could take fishing

Throw the football and be his pride and joy

And he could already see him holdin that trophy

Takin his team to state

But when the nurse came in with a little pink blanket

All those big dreams changed

And now he's wrapped around her finger

She's the center of his whole world

And his heart belongs to that sweet little

Beautiful, wonderful, perfect all-American girl

Sixteen short years later

She was fallin for the senior football star

Before you knew it he was droppin passes

Skippin practice just to spend more time with her

The coach said, "Hey, son, what's your problem?

Tell me, have you lost your mind?"

And daddy said, "You'll lose your free ride to college

Boy, you better tell her goodbye"

hello

But now he's wrapped around her finger

She's the center of his whole world

And his heart belongs to that sweet little

Beautiful, wonderful, perfect all-American

And when they got married and decided to have one of their own

She said, "Be honest, tell me what you want?"

And he said, "Honey, you oughta know

Sweet little, beautiful one just like you

Oh, a beautiful, wonderful, perfect all-American"

Now he's wrapped around her finger

She's the center of his whole world

And his heart belongs to that sweet little

Beautiful, wonderful, perfect all-American girl, all-American girl

When I got done I heard clapping. I turned around to see Finn standing there in the doorway. He walked in smiling.

"That was amazing Marley. What was the meaning behind that?" He asked me.

"Thanks Finn. No meaning. Just a song I wanted to sing." I told her.

"Are you sure? It didn't seem like it." He said.

"Yeah I am sure." I told him.

"Okay." He said.

"Okay. I'm heading to my locker to put my stuff away. See you later Finn." I said to Finn walking down the hallway. I turn the corner to my locker to see Jake.

"Hey Beautiful." Jake said.

"Hey." I said.

"What's up?" He said to me.

"Nothing." I said.

"Are you okay?" He said looking at me concerned.

"Yeah I am fine." I said. We talked until the bell rang. He gave me a kiss and then he walked me to my homeroom.
