REPLAY. (Glee!)

ii

Sectionals.

*****

I left my friends back in our green room as I made her way to the warblers room.

I knocked, and the door swung open to reveal a beaming Blaine.

"I didn't know we were sending spies now" he joked, pulling me into a side hug, to my dismay.

"Hello to you too, Blaine" I pat him on the shoulder.

I don't like him. No me gusta.

"Wait spy? Lexi!" Kurt smiled from behind him, a giant toothy smile.

"Kurt!" I beamed back in excitement, pulling him into a massive hug.

Me and Kurt didn't talk much, we hadn't really talked since Kurt had moved to dalton.

The Dalton boys moved out the green room to the side of the stage so I could talk to my brother.

"I'm sorry" I started, "I know I haven't been a good sister lately, I was just upset that you were moving schools- away from me and finn- and you didn't tell us"

"Stop rambling Lex" he grabbed my shoulders.

"Sorry- I'm just mad that we haven't been able to talk. I want to talk to you and have chats about boys like we used to." Kurt brushed a piece of hair from my face as I started again.

"It was partly me- when I saw you started to grow up and do things with Finn and not me, I got jealous" he hugged his torso, "I didn't want my baby sister to push me away, but I pushed you away in doing so. I'm sorry"

"I've missed you" I spoke softly, "I've missed this. Just talking to you like you aren't just an colleague"

"Me too-"

He was interrupted by Blaine knocking on the door, "The Hipsters are finished. We're on"

I turned to Kurt, "good luck Kurt, break a leg- not literally"

"Thank you Lexi" he turned to leave, but not before hugging me.

I watched backstage as the warblers preformed 'hey soul sister' which Kurt knew was one of my favourite songs.

As they came off, I clapped and cheered, "Go Kurt, Go Warblers!"

The announcer sounded as Kurt was about to talk, signalling that it was time for me to go on stage.

"You're gonna kill it" Kurt yelled over the chatter, "you always do"

"Don't need to tell me twice"

*****

We had just finished 'I've had the time of my life' and it was time to do Valerie with Santana.

We started by playing with Santana's hair, before going into our dance routine.

Santana killed it to say the least, she hit all the notes and her voice never cracked.

The Latina took Center stage the whole time, and I'm glad she did.

*****

All three of this year's glee clubs were anxiously waiting for the announcer to say the results.

"And now, this year's head judge, associate director of the Ohio department of Motor vehicles; Mr Pete Sznowski"

Pete addressed the audience quickly, "thank you, and thank you to all the groups who preformed here today" he smiled, "we all had a serious good time. You know what else is a serious good time? Filling out an organ donor card, it's never to late to donate! Drumroll please"

I twiddled with my fingers anxiously as he opened the envelope.

"In third place, the hipsters!"

Oh thank god. I took Mike's hand anxiously as they collected their trophy.

"Thank you, drive carefully. And now, the winner of this year's west central sectionals is...its a tie! You're both going to regionals!"

I jumped up in excitement knowing that we were one step closer to nationals; even if we didn't win.

I hugged mike, "at least we didn't lose"

"Thats a plus, and we're going to regionals" he replied, smiling.

"Are you as disappointed as I am?" I mumbled so no one could hear.

"Yeah, But it's not worth it. We got our hopes up, that's all"

Blaine shook Will's hand, "congratulations"

"Hey, nice work" he replied, "see you at regionals"

My eyes found their way to Kurt, and immediately I ran and hugged him, "you killed it dude!"

"Thank you Lexi!" he returned the embrace, "So did you! You were amazing"

*****

"Congratulations guys!" We stood around the piano, cheering as Will spoke, "It wasn't pretty but we're moving on, and I for one am gonna be happy to have Regionals and Nationals to focus on"

"Mr Schue, we heard about Emma and that..dentist" I spoke, I wasn't fond of him when he came to the club to check out teeth.

Will sighed, "It's alright, we don't need to talk about it. Now I know we've had our..dramas..but our family is back in a happy place and I think we should celebrate the best way we know how. Rachel, so how would you like to solo?"

"Thanks but uh, I don't really feel like a solo right now" She glumly gave Finn a side look while I patted him on the shoulder. Poor guy, another girl cheated on him. "I'd like to defer it to the unsung heroes; Mercedes and Tina"

"Don't have to ask me twice" Mercedes shrugged.

Will clapped, "Well we'll meet in the auditorium in 15 minutes"

While Mercedes and Tina sung, the rest of us danced along behind. Finn thanked me and Mike for the distraction it gave him, I felt awful for him. What Rachel did was super shitty.

I high-fived them both, "Regionals! Whoop!"
