" Walk with me. " He nodded and followed me back inside. " Let's just say that I've experienced what you're going through first hand. " I heard a small doubt it under his breath and I raised my eyebrow at him, but shrugged. "So I kinda hate guys like them. By the way I'm Bridget"
"Kurt" he replied. Once we got inside I finally went to the bulletin board to sign up for basketball. I was smiling the whole way here, getting some odd looks from Kurt. But when he saw the club papers he asked me a question.
" Are you thinking about joining the glee club? We need more members, there are only six of us." Suddenly my smile dropped completely and I fell to my knees and slammed both of my fists into the board.
" NOoooOOoOO!" I said dramatically as I felt a part of my soul being chipped away.
" Uh, if you really didn't want to you could have just said so." Kurt awkwardly patted my back and I looked at him with a pout.
" That's not it Kurt, don't you see? Basketball is my life! It's my way to get a scholarship, and there is no girls basketball team here. " Mid way through my sentence I began to shake Kurt back and forth by his shoulders.
" Brid- Bridge- BRIDGET!" Kurt got me to stop shaking him and looked at me in the eyes. "It's not the end of the world. You're going to be okay, do you no why?" I shook my head. " Because you are going to sign up for the boys team." I let that information sink in as I stood up dumbfounded then I felt a myself grinning like an idiot. I gave Kurt a huge hug.
" Thanks Kurt you're the best!" Kurt didn't hug back since his arms were also trapped in the bone crushing hug.
" Can't...breath...need...air." Hearing his pleas she let him go.
" You're great, but never do that again. I mean it." I scratched the back of me neck awkwardly as I apologized. But then realized that I now had to speak to the coach of the team to see if he will let me join. I decided I would during tryouts. I turned back to the board and signed my name on the club sheet. I never finished writing my last name because I heard someone say Kurt's name and I turned around to see who it was. I girl with medium brown hair and a slightly big nose came up to us.
" Did you find someone who is joining glee? I'm so proud of you!" When she spoke Kurt rolled his eyes so I guess she wasn't exactly likable.
" No I-" I was cut off by her taking my hand to shake.
" I am Rachel Berry, most talented in the glee club but you can always sway in the background! I mean, every star could use a little backup." As she was talking she was dragging me to some kind of music room. Kurt was following behind mumbling a few rude comment every now and then.
" I think you've misun-" I was cut off again as Rachel continued her rant.
" We grow as a whole as Mr. Schue gives us lessons based on music, though the others could try harder, I hope you don't disappoint. Though I doubt you'll ever be better than me you might come second." By this point I was standing in the room with five others still trying to tell Rachel she's got it all wrong. An apple shaped black girl with great fashion noticed me struggling so she made it her job to shut Rachel up.
" Rachel! could you be quite for five minutes and let her speak!" She got up in Rachel's face pointing her finger at her accusingly.
" Excuse me Mercedes but if she's joining glee then she should audition. I think she should sing what she wants to say." Suddenly everyone was sitting in there seats and I looked to Kurt for help. He gave me a look saying ' you're all on your own' and I glared at him a little.
" I guess I could sing, but I'm not joining, I was just hanging out with Kurt while signing up for basketball." I said to all of them. Some of them sighed in disappointment when the football guy looked at me confused.
" But there is no girls basketball team." I nodded at what he said, knowing it was true.
" That's why I'm trying out for the boys team." I spoke with a shrug. They all looked at me shocked, except Kurt since he suggested it in the first place. Suddenly he spoke up.
" You said you would sing right? I'm kind of curious and we should see if we can convince you to join after. " I shrugged but said okay anyway. At that moment Mr. Schuester, my Spanish teacher, walked through the door. He looked at us and raised an eyebrow.
" What's going on here?"
" This girl here-" A boy in a wheelchair started before I cut him off.
" Bridget." I was a little annoyed with no one even asking my name while I was in here.
" Right, Bridget is going to sing and we are going to decide weather or not if we should try to get her to join." Wheelchair boy finished.
" A-a-and she said t-that she can sing, but was o-o-only brought here through a-a misunderstanding." The Asian girl with highlights added on.
" Alright then, go ahead and start when ever you are ready. " I nodded at the teacher before I told the piano man what song I was going to be singing. Then the intro to Everybody Talks by Neon Trees starts. I waited to come in at the right moment and started dancing.
Song NOT mine
"Hey baby won't you look my way"
I walked with long steps over to the audience.
"I can be your new addiction"
I put my hand on wheelchair kid's chin before pulling away.
"Hey baby what you gotta say?"
rocking side to side I snapping my fingers.
"All you're giving me is fiction."
I hugged myself and brought my hands and body down.
"I'm a sorry sucker and this happens all the time."
When pretending to sit I rested my face in my fists and shook my head.
"I found out that everybody talksEverybody talks, everybody talks."
I slowly rose up while making talking motions with my hands.
"It started with a whisper!"
Jumping up I pumped my fist and the others started to back me up.
"And that was when I kissed her."
I blew a kiss to the glee kids.
"And then she made my lips hurt."
I pretended to swoon.
"I could hear the chit chat."
Looking around I shook my head.
"Take me to your love shack."
I leaned back resting the back of my hand on my forehead.
"Mamas always gotta back trackWhen everybody talks back."
I walked back some moving my arms in sync and I suddenly stopped and shrugged near the end. I continued to dance with the song having a lot of fun. Especially when everyone ( everyone but Rachel ) came to dance with me. But the song soon ended and I was smiling brightly. The glee kids all cheered and clapped as I bowed some, laughing lightly.
" That was definitely something." Mr. Schue comments while smiling with the rest of us. Rachel mumbles something about her spot light being stolen." Are you sure you don't want to join glee club?" Everyone looked at me waiting for an answer. I was about to say I changed my mind but then I remembered what Santana said, and I also don't want anyone finding out I'm gay either so I made my decision.
" Sorry, I don't think I could handle the slushy facials like you guys can." They all deflated slightly but Rachel looked happier. I looked at the time to see I had to eat my lunch right away if I wanted to get a full meal and get to class on time. " Hey, I've got to go. If you need any backup for a glee project you'll probably find me in the gym. Then I left and went on with my day, excited for tryouts tomorrow.
