Amelia Mae

Chapter Twelve: The Power Of Madonna Part Two

A/N: I do not own anything but Amelia St. James and any other original characters which includes her parents, aunt, and uncle.

The next morning was weird, Jesse and I woke up at the same time which we haven't done since elementary school. Jesse and I haven't been in the same school at the same time since elementary school so it just felt different knowing that he goes to school with me. Nobody was in a rush at all today, Aunt Vanessa didn't have to worry about what time she left now because she could leave later to go to work. Uncle Daniel wouldn't have to worry about getting to school when Cheerios practice was over because Jesse said he would wait for me. Things felt simpler like everything was going to be easy, it felt nice. Jesse didn't tell Rachel that he started school at McKinley today, so it was gonna be a surprise for her. But what Jesse learned yesterday is that he has to wait one week before he can join any school activity just to make sure he can handle the workload. It shouldn't be hard, Jesse is smart.

Since Jesse was a senior and Rachel was a sophomore their schedules didn't line up at all except the for the same lunch period. But Jesse ate with me, he would join Rachel for lunch soon enough though. He wanted to get used to the school before he lets Rachel know. I think she would understand but I have no clue.

The rest of the week passed with no problem, me and Jesse fell into an easy routine in the mornings. It had now been a week since Jesse transferred schools, and today he was allowed to join the glee club. We had to meet with Mr. Schue before school started to office would know to change Jesse's lunch period and put down that he stays after school now.

Jesse was on my right as we approached the choir room office. I had actually never been in here before. Jesse didn't look nervous, and he didn't have a reason to be. ND would take him, almost every show choir in the state knows who he is. We knocked on the door before we heard an enter.

"Mr. Schuester?" Jesse asked. "Yes," "I'm Jesse St. James, you know my sister Amelia. Can we talk to you about something?" "Hello, Jesse, what can I do for you?" "We want to join glee," I said. "That's great, but Jesse don't you go to Carmel?" "Transfer was official last Wednesday," "Well if I can just get ahold of parents or guardians, then both of you are good to go," "We live with both our parents and aunt and uncle. Here is our aunt's number, and here is our father's number," "I will call them at lunch, everything should be ready by the end of the day so you start then, welcome to the New Directions," Mr. Schuester finished.

At the end of the day, Jesse and I entered the choir through the office and then walked into everybody's view behind Mr. Schue. Rachel looked surprised and happy. "We have two new members joining us, please welcome Jesse and Amelia St. James," Mr.Schue stated. Brittany got up right away and hugged me. "What the hell? It seems like everybody's doing things just to hurt my feelings," Finn shouted. "I thought you all would take this news a little better. I'm a star, you can learn for me." "Not the time be narcissistic Jess," I told him quietly so nobody else could hear. "We were already fighting for second leads, and now that you've shown up I have lost all hope at ever getting a solo," Kurt explained. "Yeah, that's right, and Y'all just trot me out at the end of every number so I can wail on the last note. How is that okay?" Mercedes spoke. "He's a spy Mr. Schue. I would know," Santana stated. "She can stay, he can go," "Whoa, whoa, whoa guys. I saw all the paperwork. I spoke with their parents," Mr. Schue announces. "They winter in Bali, that's a very expensive phone call," Jesse explains. "Amelia and Jesse live with aunt and uncle, who live in our school district as well as Carmel's, they could go to either school. It's all above board, guys. He goes to this school now." Mr.Schue explains to them. "But this isn't fair," Artie states. "Guys! Everyone who's ever auditioned for this group has gotten in, that's how we do things in here," Mr. Schue continues. "Okay? To suddenly change the rules now, that would be unfair. Brittany?" "Mr. Schue, are they your kids?" Jesse and Mr. Schue kinda just turned to face each other. I could help but giggle. They didn't say anything.

Then Rachel speaks up, "I don't understand why are you doing this?" "Because when you love something, you got to go for it. You would never be with me completely if I were on the opposing team. And I care about you more than winning another national title. So I left Vocal Adrenaline for you," Jesse explains. If that doesn't show how much Jesse cares about her then I don't know what I will. "Alright guys, we have got a lot of work to do. Jesse, Amelia, great to have you here. Welcome Aboard," Mr. Schue says beginning to talk.

By the end of glee, I was ready to go home, but I had Cheerios practice. Cheerios practice wasn't directly after school, it was an hour after school. Santana, Brittany, and I walk to into the gym and start stretching while we wait for Coach Sylvester. When she entered, she entered with Kurt and Mercedes in cheerios uniforms. "Meet our new star performers, Kurt Hummel and Mercedes. We're learning a new routine which will be performed at the pep assembly on Friday. Now let's go." With that everybody got in front of her waiting to be positioned.

When Cheerios were over it was now 6:30 roughly, and I could not wait to go home. I met with Jesse in the choir room, and we left to go home. "When did Rachel leave?" I asked. "I dropped her off at her house around 6, her dads wanted her home," He explained. We arrived home, ate dinner, then I jumped into the shower. I did my homework after that and then went to bed.

Friday came faster than I thought it would. And it was a busy day, we had the pep assembly today, and we would be doing a complete run-through of a new song in glee. When it was time for the pep assembly, the cheerios meet in the locker room, when the majority of the student body was in the gym, the floor cheerios got into position for the start of the routine. Kurt and Mercedes would be hidden till the pep assembly starts. Coach Sylvester gave us the signal, started and the music and off we went.

When it was all done and over with, I watched as Mr. Schue walked up to Coach Sylvester, they started talking and then Kurt and Mercedes joined their conversation. Everybody cleared out of the gym shortly after that, and we all went back to class. Pretty soon, School was over and Jesse and I meet up at my locker then went to Rachel's. When we got there, Finn was talking to Rachel. I held Jesse back from walking closer to them. I wanted to listen to what they were saying. "The only reason you were even open to dating Jesse was because I was such an ass. Mr. Tough Guy and all that. I really liked you, and I could have had you, but I blew it?" Finn told her. I don't know if Rachel said anything after that but Jesse went right to her side and his arm around her shoulder. "Okay, Finn, I knew we have a big showdown coming, so let's just decide on the arena. Sing-off, the parking lot, 5:00. Be there." Jesse stated. "Jesse that's how things work at this school," I said standing next to him.

"No. Welcome to New Directions. Frankly, I need you. I'm tired of carrying the male vocals all by myself. I'll do my best to stay away from your girl." Finn told him. "I appreciate that she's a keeper," Jesse stated. "Walk with me to the auditorium, I put together a new Madonna number, I'll talk you through it on the way," "Sweet," With that the two boys walked to the auditorium, Rachel and I following behind them.

Turns out, Finn gave Jesse one of his solos in 'Like A Prayer'. Before we left to go home, all of us changed into clothes that were red and white. We ran through the number, touch-up on some of the choreography, I helped out that. Then we went home, Jesse dropped Rachel off at her house, then we went to ours. The past two weeks have been interesting but fun. It was great to have my brother at the same school as me, it great to see happy he was with Rachel, it was great to spend more time with friends while also making more.
