Chapter 37
4440 Words
I went out from the girls toilet and walk to the blachers like Ryder said to me. Did he just ask me out indirectly? I guess so. But I dont know why in the bleachers.
I enter the field and walk to the bleachers. And Ryder is not coming yet. It's almost 4pm and the school already over since 3pm so the field is quiet empty only some jocks who has practice here.
I keep walking in the bleachers while waiting for him until I saw a picnic basket with some picnic food here. It's really catch my eyes. I look around but no one is here. I walk closer to that picnic basket.
Suddenly someone cover my eyes with his hand. "Ryder, dont play along with me." I chuckle.
"You can guess it right." Ryder chuckles.
"Of course because you were the one who invited me here." I chuckle.
"So you like it?" Ryder asks me.
"This bleachers picnic is all you plan?" I raised my eyebrows. "This is cute." I smile at him.
"You're the cutest one." Ryder smiles at me.
I just smile shyly at him and look around the field with cold wind blowing. Until Ryder wear me a shawl around my neck.
"Thanks." I said to him.
"Sandwich?" Ryder give me a slice of sandwich.
"Thanks. Why you did this to me by the way?"
"I just want to make you feel happy after Sam did that things to you and realize that there is someone better than him here. Well not really better but I'll try to be better."
"You know that you indirectly asked me out?" I giggle.
"I know that but I made a code and I though that you wont realize it but I know you're smart and you always realize it." Ryder chuckles.
"I'm done with those sucks code that Mike told me every night." I laugh.
"You didnt tired to study everynight?"
"Nope." I shake my head. "I wanna reach my dream." I said to him.
"But Tina's boyfriend might be tired teach you every night." Ryder says to me.
"Mike told me that being my tutor is like he build his dad's dream to see him as a doctor so he dont mind."
"You like Mike?"
I shake my head. "He is like my big brother beside I dont want to steal someone's boyfriend and Tina is the one girl who really close to me since Brittany graduated. At the first time I transferred to this school, guy that I like was Finn, he was super cute but Blaine told me that Finn and Rachel are dating and they are endgame. Finn, Rachel and I being nominated for the prom king and queen. Finn asked me to the prom, at first I said yes but then I dumped him because of who? Sam." I sigh.
"It's like Sam really matters for you."
"Not anymore. I'm still ignore him and didnt wanna talk to him. If he wasnt cheated behind my back, he wouldnt flirt with that girl like everyday right? I mean they always together. Nothing can deny it."
"Which mean that it's time for you to moving on.....with me." Ryder smirks at me then laughs.
"This picnic idea is cool. I like it." I chuckle.
"I like you." Ryder smiles at me. "Since the first time you came to me and helped me with little things on my elbow and I cant forget that and I've been waiting for this since a long time ago. To get closer." Ryder says as he move his seat closer to me. "And closer." He keep move his seat closer to me. "And closer." His seat really close to me right now.
I even can feel his breath. I just can look onto his eyes until he look at me deeply and he heavily breathing. I close my eyes and feel his breath through my skin until something crash my lips. He kisses me and I let him doing this and my heart told me to kiss him back and I did that.
Sam's POV
"Sam, run five laps because you late ten minutes!" Coach Beiste says to me.
I let out a sigh and start running around the field. Such a tired day and I really need to refresh my mind.
My feet stops when I see Ryder and Bianca are sitting down on the bleachers next to each other and really close until they both kissing.
Damn! Is this what she felt when she saw me kissed Penny that day? Its feels like I catched her cheats behind my back when actually I was the one who cheated behind her back with Penny.
It was too late. I know I'm stupid. Because of selfishness and now I lost her. Just because she was busy with study stuff to reach her dream and now I lost her.
Ryder was right. Karma does exist. I stole her from Sebastian and now Ryder steal her from me but no. I will get her back. I will.
"Sam, I told you to do laps not standing there!" Coach Beiste yells.
I sigh and start running again. Running from the truth. From everything.
Bianca's POV
Ryder and I pull our lips each other and giggle. I dont know but my heart says that I have to give him a chance besides that Sam is dating someone else.
"It's freezing here. Can we just go home? Beside I have books that I have to read." I said to him.
"Sure but first, eat this sandwich or I will tell my dad and he will tell your dad." Ryder chuckles.
"Aye-aye sir." I chuckle and eat the sandwich he gave me.
Ryder packed the picnic stuff into the picnic basket. I take my ransel and we then walk off from the bleachers.
Suddenly I feel something hold my hand. I look down and Ryder holds my hand. I turn my face at him and he is smiling at me so I just can give him a smile back.
We keep walking together until we got into the parking lot and his car. I enter the passenger seat and he place the picnic basket on the backseat and start driving.
At least when I'm around him, I can forget about Sam even only a bit but I can. Because the things Sam done to me really hurt me.
"You want an ice cream?" Ryder asks me.
I shake my head slowly. "No. Thank you."
"Why?"
"I'm trying to diet. Avoiding chips, oreo, coffee, ice cream, chocolate and many sweet things."
"Include me?" Ryder raise his eyebrows.
"Haha you're funny." I curl my lips.
"Just kidding. Jake told me that insulting you is funny and he is right." Ryder laughs.
"Ugh I will kill that little black Puckerman." I roll my eyes.
"Well, it's arrived in your house." Ryder says to me.
"Thank you for the little picnic." I smile at him.
"No goodbye kiss for me?" Ryder raise his eyebrows.
"We are not dating, Ryder."
He takes my hand and hold my hand. "But, what if I ask you to be my girlfriend? I dont need any other time to ask you this because I know you so bad since along time ago and I'm serious. I wanted to ask you this since the first time I know your name. Would you?"
"I'll give you the answer tomorrrow." I rub his cheek and went out from his car.
He turn down the window of his car and smiles at me. "I'll wait for that."
I just give him a smile and wave him a goodbye. He waves me a goodbye and drive away.

"Okay since all of us are down. What about sing Wide Awake? We will sing it acoustic." Kitty asks over the skype.
"I'm not down." I shake my head.
"Liar. How can you are not down when you found that Trouty Mouth cheated behind your back with a fake nurse that your das recruit to his daughter school." Kitty says.
"That's rude, Kitty." Jake protest.
"Well, Ryder and I went out today and he asked me to be his girlfriend." I said to them.
"Then what's your answer?" Tina asks curiously.
"I'll tell him tomorrow." I said.
"Oh come on that's not a hot gossip. Since I met him, I already know that he likes you from his eyes and since one week ago, I already know that Sam cheated behind your back." Kitty roll her eyes.
"WHAT? One week ago? It's means that two weeks after Blaine and Kurt propose? Why you didnt tell me and how could you know that?" I gasp.
"You were too busy with your study stuff, B. I went to nurses office and I saw Sam flirted with that nurse but I guess that day Sam doesnt realize that I was there because they both were behind the curtain. I was about to tell you but I dont want to hurt you. I'm just thinking that you need to focus with your test because dream is everything and I swear I'm not lying. Puck dumped me and cheated behind my back. Since the first time I dated him I know this is could happen but when I found out it was really hurt me. We are same and I know what you feel." Kitty says.
"For the first time in forever I heard Kitty said this. Lets mark on the calendar guys!" Jake says.
"I knew that too. Blaine and I already felt something wrong about Sam but we dont wanna tell you." Tina says sadly.
"Guys, what shall I do?" I ask hopelessly.
"Sing Wide Awake tomorrow." Unique says.
"And say yes to Ryder." Jake says.
"Yeah." Tina nods. "You and Sam were cute but he is such a man-w***e and I guess Ryder is better one." Tina says.
"They already told ya." Kitty says.
I sigh. "Okay I will try to remember the song."
"About Ryder? He is my best mate." Jake says.
"I'll think about it again. I wont tell Puckerman." I said.
"Problem solved. See you tomorrow, bitches." Kitty hung up.
I hung up the calls and collapse my body to my back in my bed. I need to tell Blaine about this. I have to.
"Blaine, you there?" I enter Blaine's room.
"Hey I'm talking with Kurt on skype." Blaine says to me.
"Can I talk to you? I need some advice." I sit down on the edge of his bed.
"Well, I guess I should go." Kurts says over the skype.
"No you dont need to. It's not a secret." I said to them.
"About what, B?" Blaine asks me.
"Since when you know that Sam cheated behind my back?" I ask Blaine.
"Sam cheated? It's not him." Kurt frowns.
"I know that, Kurt." Blaine sighs. "It's two weeks after our propose actually since one week ago, he act so strange and you were busy with study until you didnt realize that. Sam usually went to nurses office. I asked nurse Brenda what he did but nurses Brenda doesnt have any idea because I guess Sam went there when nurse Brenda went to hospital and exchange shift with that girl. Tina and I knew that but we both agreed that we dont wanna tell you until you found out that day and what Tina and I though was right. I'm sorry, B." Blaine rubs my back.
"Sweet cheesus. Quinn was the one who cheated behind his back with Finn but now he did that to you." Kurt gasps.
"Well, I just found out the truth now." I half-smiled.
"Dont be sad, I guess that he just being stupid now and I know he is still in love with you but he is the biggest man-whore." Blaine rolls his eyes.
"I'm moving on. I was the one who made him like that. Kitty and Tina said the same thing like you said. And there is one more thing, Ryder asked me to be his girlfriend." I said to Blaine.
"Ryder? The Danny Zuko one?" Kurt raises his eyebrows.
"Yes he is." I nod.
"Then what is your answer?" Blaine asks me.
"I'll tell him tomorrow." I said to Blaine.
"You like him, kid?" Kurt asks me.
"He is sweet, kind, and cute. I dont know but everytime he is around me he can make me forget about Sam a bit." I said.
"Blaine stupid in this thing. I suggest you to follow your heart. If you want to give him a chance, just give it." Kurt says.
"I'm not stupid. I'm just letting her to choose her own choice, Kurt." Blaine protest.
"Thanks, Kurt." I smile at Kurt.
"If you need some advice just call me, sweety." Kurt chuckle.
"I will." I chuckle and laying my body in Blaine's bed.
"What are you doing here?" Blaine frowns.
"Sleeping. Mike has exams tomorrow so we dont have study tonight." I simply said and close my eyes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I went out from my classroom and walk in the hallways with holding my book and about to go find my locker until I see Ryder is in front of his locker.
Well, I guess I should tell him right now or he will think that I just keep him hangin on. Okay, Bianca this is the right time.
I walk over to him from his behind and cover his eyes with my hand. "Jake, you're a gay huh?" He says.
"You cant make difference between guy's hand and girl's hand?" I ask him.
He chuckle. "I know this voice, this parfume smell and this hand. Okay dont play along with me, B." Ryder chuckle.
I push my hand away from his eyes and standing in front of him. "Hey.." I smile at him.
"What's up? You want to ask me to help you with your Katy's costume because you cant sew with that finger?" Ryder raise his eyebrows.
"Nope." I shake my head. "I'm here to say something important to you." I said to him.
"You got a new boyfriend?"
"Yes.." I nod. "And that's you." I smile shyly at him.
"Wait, what?" Ryder frown. "Is that a yes?"
I nod slowly. "Because Jake cant stop force me to say yes to you or he will insult me for my entire life. Haha just kidding. I'm just thinking that you're sweet, kind, and cute one so it's a yes." I smile at him.
Ryder smile back at me and about to kiss me but he suddenly stop. "It's serious that Jake isnt threaten you right?" Ryder asks me.
"Nope. Jake part is a lie. He told me many thing about that I didnt know but he didnt threaten me. Not at all."
"Great." Ryder pushes his face closer to me and kissed me softly and I kissed him back.
We pull out our lips each other and smiling at each other. "What do you have now?" I ask him.
"I have football now. I'll see you in glee club, okay." Ryder smiles at me and strokes my hair then walk off.
I give him a smile back and walk off. I hope that it will be a good star for me and at least I can forget about Sam little bit.
Sam's POV
"Sam, I need to talk to you." Ryder suddenly stands up next to my locker.
"About what, dude?" I ask him.
"Bianca and I are dating. I just want to let you know about that. I was kinda pessimist but she said yes. I'm sorry but I love her." Ryder half-smiled at me.
"It's okay. Just dont hurt her like what I did. You were right. She deserve someone like you." I half-smiled at him.
"Thanks, man. I'll try to be better." Ryder hold my shoulder then walk off.
Officially dating after I saw them kissed in the bleachers yesterday? I dont know how to say but I'm such a stupid man-w***e like what Blaine said but without the stupid words.
"Sam, I talked to Kurt last night and he told me to use more conditioner for your long hair." Blaine shocked me.
"Your sister and Ryder are officially dating." I simply said.
"W-what? How could you know that?" Blaine frowns.
"Ryder told me. Bianca said yes. I know I'm just a stupid man-w***e. I was jealous with Mike because she gave all her time to Mike until I started cheating and now I lost her." I sigh.
"I cant stop her. I just wanna let her do anything she wants as long as in the right track and dating someone is in the right track." Blaine says to me.
"I know that. I'm just a little piece of wind now." I said hopelessly.
"Sam, stop blaming yourself. You have someone else and she has someone else. Just deal with it even it was hard like when I broke up with Kurt that day but if you stop blame yourself you will feel better and not like this." Blaine says to me and walks off.
So just deal with it? I'll try.
Bianca's POV
"No, I'm singing this part." I shake my head to Jake.
"Okay both." Jake simply said.
"You cant insult me anymore now." I said to him.
"Why?" He raise his eyebrows.
"I said yes to Ryder."
"Wow finally after waiting for about six months and he got you." Jake clapping.
"If I wasnt help him that day. He might be not join the glee club or meet me." I said to Jake.
"Oh come on, he is yours now not mine anymore." Jake rolls his eyes.
"You just sounds like a gay." I roll my eyes.
Jake just laugh until we start rehearsing our song for glee club today.

Glee Club
"Alright, it's time for the team Gaga to sing their song." Mr. Schue says to us.
"Mr. Schue sorry I'm late. And I bring my girl because she said that she likes Katy." Sam says as he hold that girl's hand.
'My girl'? What the hell, Sam. You really didnt deny that you cheated behind my back with her.
"Well, the Gaga. Show us what you've got." Mr. Schue says.
Jake:

"Wohoo that was cool." Blaine and Artie cheering.
The others just clapping and smile at us. They dont know that this song is really show what we felt right now that's why we sing it with a full of heart.
"I never imagine that team Gaga like you guys, the rebel one can sing a song like this. This is the best." Mr. Schue smiles at us.
"Thank you, Mr. Schue." Tina says.
"Alright for your last assignment this week. I want these two groups make into one and sing a song that can make it one. This Friday in this auditorium with costumes." Mr. Schue says and about to walk off.
"Mr. Schue." I stop him.
"Yes, Bianca?" Mr. Schue turn his face at me.
"I know what song I'm gonna sing for nationals." I said to him.
"Isnt original song you wrote?" Mr. Schue asks.
I shake my head. "It's Chasing Pavements by Adele. This song is really me beside I dont have time to write song anymore. Is it okay?" I ask him.
"That will be fine. I will prepare the setlist later." Mr. Schue says to me and walks off.
"Thank you, Mr. Schue." I said a bit loud and sigh.
"B, Chasing Pavements have high-f." Blaine says to me.
"I can reach that." I smile at Blaine. "Actually I was about to try Dont Stop Believing by Journey but I heard from Kurt that you guys already play it on first regionals." I said to them.
"Yeah but we lost." Tina says.
"We dont even get place that day." Artie added.
"We never know if you dont try it, B." Blaine says to me.
"Shall I?" I raise my eyebrows.
"Yeah maybe we could do Journey to Nationals again." Tina smiles at me.
"Rachel killed her Funny Girl auditions with that song." A familiar voice. The lamp shoot at the person amd there you go. Finn is here. "Try it. You killed last nationals with your own song." Finn says to me.
I look at the others and they smiles at me and nodded. I give them a smile back and walk to the piano. Brad always knows that when I walk closer to the piano which mean that I really want to play it.
I sit down in front of the piano and start playing a tune.
Bianca:
Oooh
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Bianca with New Directions Vocalizing (with New Directions):
A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
(Strangers waiting)
Up and down the boulevard
Their (shadows searching) in the night
(Streetlights, people)
Livin' just to find emotion
(Hiding somewhere) in the night!
Oooh!
Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
(Strangers waiting)
Up and down the boulevard
Their (shadows searching) in the night
Ooh (Streetlights, people)
Livin' just to find emotion
(Hiding somewhere) in the night!
Bianca with New Directions (Bianca):
(Woah, ooh!)
Don't stop believin'
(Hold on to that feelin')
Streetlights, people, ooh! (New Directions: Whoa, oh)
Don't stop believin'
(Hold on!)
Street lights people, ooh! (New Directions: Whoa, oh)
Don't stop!
"It's been a long time we didnt do Dont Stop Believin' at least since that last regionals." Tina chuckles.
"This is amazing. You can perform this song again. What its when someone play same song with different instrumental?" Finn asks.
"Remake?" Blaine and I raise our eyebrows.
"Yeah remake." Finn nods.
"I dont know Mr. Schue will like it or not." I said.
"I'll try to talk with him. Dont worry." Finn says to me.
"Finn, arent you supposed to be in college?" Artie asks.
"Yes but I miss you guys so I came here. Weekend at home with Rachel and Kurt will back home tomorrow." Finn says happily.
"Kurt didnt tell me anything." Blaine frowns.
"Oh damn! It was a surprise for Blaine actually. Well, if he come home tomorrow just pretend that you are surprise with that okay." Finn says to Blaine.
"But Kurt will stay in your house right?" I ask Finn.
"Of course, why?" Finn asks back.
"Because it sucks to hearing my brother and his fiancé flirted over the skype last night. It was on skype not the real one. If Kurt stays in my home I guess I need to cover my ear so I wont hear any moan from the next room." I roll my eyes.
"Who ask you to slept with me last night? You came into my room and like a spoilt baby then slept there." Blaine raise his eyebrows.
"I can do anything I want and you let me." I take Ryder's hand quickly and about to go out from the auditorium.
Until someone clear his throat and it's not Ryder's voice. I look at the hand I hold and it's black. I turn my face and Jake smirks at me. "Ewww you always insulting my life." I push Jake's hand away and walk back to get Ryder.
"You know what? It's been twice and I guess you got into Puckerman zone now." Jake laughs.
"Never gonna happen, womanizer!" I said to Jake and said the word 'womanizer' a little bit loud with take a look at Sam little bit.
I take Ryder's hand and walk lead him to out from the auditorium. "Jake is your new victim for mocking now? Since Joe graduated?" Ryder chuckles.
"Jake started insulting my life first." I sigh.
"You were amazing, babe." Ryder smiles at me.
"Amazing in insulting?"
"No. You killed that shows and when you sing that Journey song it was really amazing."
"Thank you. I try my best for nationals." I said to him.
"I trust you." Ryder smiles at me.
