SPEECHLESS ~ S. Evans

1. Audition

"Naomi Page! After going to McKinley for a year how does it feel to be the hottest but most forgettable girl in school?" JBI said as he quickly approached the brunette who was standing at her locker.

"I'm sorry I don't think that I understand..." Naomi managed to quietly utter out in sheer confusion. Discomfort was seeping into her bones as JBI proceeded to shove the microphone closer to her.

"I said the most forgettable girl in school. The whole of glee club even forgets you at times don't they?" JBI says without remorse for the girls feelings, no care in the world if he's striking a nerve or making her uncomfortable.

"I don't think that they-" She starts to say just to be cut off by JBI once again. 

"Does it ever bother you that you get no solos in glee? Are you even able to sing or did Mr. Schuester just let you in out of pity?" JBI continuously questions drowning out her voice and making her want to start crying. As JBI continues to bring her down with demeaning questions it seems that they have caught the attention of a blonde boy standing by.

Naomis eyes drop to her feet as she nervously plays with her fingers trying to tune him out. "I-I think I'm going to be late to class," She utters out in an attempt to get away from him politely. 

"Wait I have more questions!" JBI protests as she tries to back away.

"I don't think that you do." A new strong voice cuts in effectively scaring off JBI.

"Thank you," Naomi breathes out in a relieved sigh. "are you new? I haven't seen you around before." Naomi asks him trying to strike up a conversation with the boy who she found to be extremely cute.

Sam smiles slightly at her as he studies her eyes, "I'm Sam Evans I just moved here." 

Naomi smiles slightly at him, "I'm Naomi Page, if there is anything I can do to repay your kindness please just ask." She tells him trying to be as nice as possible.

Sam smirks at her and says, "Yeah, actually. You wouldn't mind showing me where Mr.Schuester's classroom is right?" He asks her. Naomi eagerly nods her head evoking a smile from Sam instead of a smirk.

"Yeah sure, I was headed that way also!" She beams excitedly, totally unaware that sam already knew how to get there and just wanted to spend more time with the girl he found to be stunning. "Can I see your schedule?" Naomi asks excited to have made a friend, with a cute boy nonetheless. Sam quickly surrenders his schedule to let her calculating gaze to scan his schedule her eyes lighting up in delight. "We have four of same classes except I'm in glee and when you're at football I'm in photography." Naomi tells him excited as they begin to walk down the hallway together.

All the new directions gathered in the courtyard ready to get new recruits. Naomi starts sining with brit, quin, and Santana as they begin 'New York State of Mind'. As Naomi and the New Directions run around the courtyard she locks eyes with Sam and waves at him whilst smiling, he waves back while winking at her. As they all finish, what Naomi thought was a really great performance, they all posed and nothing happened. There was a beat of silence before everyone around the group begins talking again. 

The New Directions all turn to each other at a loss of how to get new recruits but little do they know Finchel saw two people who were really into their performance, one wasn't just interested in the performance but in a shy brunette girl as well.

As the end of the day approached Naomi decided to approach Sam with her camera in hand to ask him if he would be willing to help her with an assignment her photography class. "Hey Sam! Wait up!" She says as loud as she can to get his attention once she catches a glimpse of his bright blonde hair. Lucky, though it wasn't that loud of a call he still heard her. Sam whips his head around and immediately starts smiling as he sees her bouncing up to him timidly apologizing to everybody she accidentally bumps into.
