Nationals

Two weeks went by after prom and Sam and I have had... some fights.

*flashback*

"You love her still, don't you?!"

"You know I do!"

"But you wanna be with her and not me!"

"No! I know your scared of losing me but I'm done with Mercedes!"

*flashback over*

I have to admit, it was kinda my fault. I got anxious; I'm already stressed out with nationals and now Mercedes is sick, also I don't hate her. I'm just scared Sam wants to be with her still. Anyways, also Kurt is leaving and Rory and all the seniors! I'm gonna miss everybody. Quinn has good balance now but dancing, is a little risky and Carmen Tibideaux might come see us perform. Everyone started fighting in this entertainment center type thing and all hell broke lose. Mr.Shue came running in trying to calm everyone down. Everyone is so tired and so stressful.

"Hey! I don't wanna hear any of this "We can't do it without her," because guess what? We don't have a choice. So be warned: if you are not giving this everything you've got, I will go all Lima heights on your sorry asses." Santana shouted.

"Listen to yourselves." Mr.Shue looked kinda disappointed but i don't know?

"I know. I'm sorry. I always go to the yelling place. I have rage."

"No, it's a good thing. A great thing. There is so much passion in this room. Even all your arguing, it's about the work. You guys really want this. Okay, so let's take a half-hour break, and then we'll run it from the top."

"Mr.Shue, is it okay if we keep going? We got the first slot, which is, like, the death slot. We have to be amazing."

"Yeah, Edge of Glory's a bitch. I said I'd be dancing by nationals. I'll be damned if I don't."

"Okay, then let's keep going. Mike, help the guys out with the choreography. Artie, help Puck with geography. Ladies, Edge of Glory. Come on. Brittany run us through it."

"From the Chorus?"

"Yeah, from the chorus. Let's do it."

We kept at it until we definitely needed a break. We all ate lunch in there and were sweating. "I'm gonna miss you guys." Tina said to the seniors. "We'll be back to visit don't worry." Quinn winked and chuckled. I looked over to Sam and leaned on him.

"Sorry I made a huge fuss about you and Mercedes. I think I was mostly just stressed." I continued to eat my chips and listen to him.

"Young one it's fine." He laughed in an impression.

"I still kinda feel like a bitch." I laughed and took a bite of his pizza. "Sorry I finished mine." We both laughed and we all finished up and went up stairs and took showers and went to bed. The next day we got hair, makeup, and outfits all done! This is it. Nationals!

We went over to the performance center, and went into our dressing room thingy and shook off nerves, Hydrated, practiced a little more. I mean it's nationals. The only reason we lost last year was cause some people decided to have a quick make out session in front of like hundreds of people or so. Tina touched up my makeup as I did the same to hers. "We need to be closer next year." I smiled. "Totally. And we are gonna be the new Rachel and Kurt!" She laughed as Mr.Shue walked through the door. "Alright gather around, everyone. I just want to say a few words before we go out there."
