one.thirteen

yall be careful when you're opening a can, i sliced my finger opening some freaking soup and it hurts like crap so be careful! also get this, i checked my spelling like wtf is going on. i also wrote half of this in my math zoom class and my history zoom class so that's fun.

the new directions where sat in the choir room, discussing who would be their 'substitute' as mr schue couldn't help or take them to sectionals."i bet we get stuck with mr. sinacori as our sectionals advisor," artie suggests as delilah grimaced. he always smelt like coffee and old socks."oh, the creepy math teacher?" tina asked as artie nodded, "he's always singing when he walks down the halls," kurt added as rachel walked in.

"hey, guys, did any of you think it was weird the way that puck rushed to quinn's aid during rehearsal yesterday?" she asked as delilah shook her head, thinking back to when quinn fell in rehearsal. yes, it was funny but she was her best friend, but puck did beat her to helping her up.

"no," mercedes deadpanned. "i mean, he likes her, i mean, they're friends, we all know that," kurt finished before delilah gripped santana's hand. "noah can be nice to people that don't piss him off," she smiled, thinking back to the times when noah had actually been a decent person towards her. "yeah, but it seemed like more than that, i've never told you guys this before, but I'm a little psychic," rachel said but delilah santana and brittany were already halfway out of the choir room, walking to cheerios practise.

they were about half way there until all their phones began to ring and they were on a group phone call with mercedes, artie, tina and kurt. "we just heard, who told?" santana said, as they all clocked on to the fact rachel somehow knew about puck being the father if quinn's baby. "we assumed it was you," artie said as delilah's face turned to confusion before snapping back- santana was a bitch to everyone else.

"why would I do that?" she asked as delilah spoke quietly "san wouldn't," she said. this was true, santana knew how pissed delilah would be for doing something that would hurt quinn. "to get back at puck, aren't you guys dating?" mercedes said as delilah took the phone away.

"you slept with noah," she angry whispered, hurt flashing her eyes before santana sighed. "it was when you got pissed with me," she whispered to delilah as she said "sex is not dating," to the phone call as brittany said "if it was san and lilah would be dating, wait then isn-" she was abruptly cut off by santana grabbing her phone away as the line went silent. "britts, i love you but shush," delilah said, trying to explain what a secret was and how she wasn't supposed to tell anyone. "look, i don't want to rock the boat, since quinn got pregnant, i'm top dog around here," santana said, quickly changing the subject over and away from them.

"hold up, rachel's walking by," mercedes said, it went quiet before she returned saying "she's gone, look, i know i screwed up telling all you guys about quinn and puck, and i feel really terrible about it, but we cannot let rachel figure this out," she said. "if she tells finn, he's going to flip,"

"hey, guys? let's gather around, i have found my replacement, so, give it up for ms. pillsbury,"
he said as the guidance counselor, that delilah was all too familiar with, walked into the room. "she's the one they made me talk to when they found out i was keeping that bird in my locker," brittany deadpanned, delilah remembered having to free the poor parrot and consoling the poor blonde when they took the bird off her.

"and she's who they make me talk to, in to talk," delilah laughed quietly. "do you even know anything about music?" santana asked, with a raised eyebrow. "what's important is that she cares about you guys every bit as much as i do,now i don't know what the future holds for me, and for us, but i know, saturday, you're going to make me proud," mr schue said. "you guys are going to be great so goodbye for now,"

"what about our setlist?" mercedes asked as mr schue explained how he couldn't help at all before leaving. "well, we have to do proud mary in wheelchairs," artie said and delilah nodded. "and don't stop believing for sure!" finn said as delilah's attention was switched over staring latina.

"stop it," she whisper-giggled, blushing as santana smiled, "nope," she said before practically yanking delilah's chair closer to her's and away from quinn. "no, my baby!" quinn whispired dramatically throwing her arm 'attempting' to grab delilah back as santana just pulled the girl into a hug, turning their attention over to mercedes who was singing, amazingly by the way.

"it's clear the room adores you,and, although it wouldn't be my first choice, well, i can't wait to see you sing that song at sectionals," rachel smiled. "you're amazing mercedes and you deserve it, i'm going to hug you now," rachel says, awkwardly embracing her into a somewhat hug.

"hey, you in?" quinn asks delilah and santana as she looks at her best friend confused, "britts house after-school?" she explains as delilah nods happily, "san?" she asks as santana nods in response, "of course, hun,"
