Chapter 19
4370 Words
I'm standing in front of the vanity mirror in girls toilet. I comb my hair and put chapstick on my lips. Then I put my pouch inside my ransel and put my hat on my head. My outfit for today is simple one. Only a short denim pants, white long sleeve shirt, sneakers, black ransel, and black fedora hat.
After that I went out from the girls toilet and get ready to have glee club. I keep walking in the hallways until I see Blaine is standing in front of his locker. It's time to find the truth.
"Why you didnt tell me?" I cross my hands on my chest and standing next to his locker.
"Kate, I was lost. I didnt even know what am I doing." Blaine sighs and shut his locker.
"But that's cheating, Blaine." I frown at him.
"It's only hook-up things." Blaine says.
"Same thing. I broke up with Artie because he hooked up with Brittany and before that I broke up with Puck because he hooked up with Quinn. That's cheating." I said to Blaine.
"I'm just lost. I was lonely and I needed him but he wasnt there and now he is totally gone. This is really sucked me up. Not only him." Blaine frowns and let out a sigh.
"I feel you." I simply nodded.
We keep walking in the hallways then turn our way to the choir room as Finn is sitting down on a seat in the corner alone then turn his face at us.
"Hey. Um, by the time I got up, you were already gone. I didn't get a chance to say good-bye." Blaine half-smiled at Finn.
"Why'd you do that to him?" Finn asks Blaine.
"Yeah why?" I raise my eyebrows.
"Kate... I don't know. I just...." Blaine sighs.
"There's no excuse." Finn frowns at Blaine.
"Yep. There is no excuse." I nodded.
"He won't talk to me. I don't even know if we're broken up." Blaine half-smiled.
"This is pretty damage." Finn shakes his head.
"Yes. It is." I nodded.
"Kate..." Finn turn his face at me.
"I will lock my mouth." I grin at him and sit down on a seat.
"Finn!" Sam suddenly walks in with the others ans greeted Finn. "Dude, what's up?"
"I'm just passing through, visiting my mom and Burt also that little girl and Mr. Schue said I could come by if I wanted." Finn chuckles and hug them one by one.
"Finn Hudson in the house, yo!" Artie says excitedly.
"Listen up! For all of you guys who don't know, this is Finn Hudson right here." Sam introduce Finn to the newest member.
"I thought you joined the Army!" Tina walks in and hugs Finn.
"I-I did, but.." Finn got cut off.
"But things don't always work out the way you planned them to." Mr. Schue cut Finn off and walks in. "And I said to Finn the same thing I say everyone who comes through this club: We're a family, and you're always welcome here. Even if you just need to take a break and think things through. In any case, we have a lot to do today. First order of business: Deciding what the fall musical's going to be. All right! So I'm passing out a list of possibilities." Mr. Schue says to us as he give us the list one by one.
"Peter Pan? Fiorello? What the heck?" Artie frowns.
"Unique wants to do Hedwig." Unique says to Mr. Schue.
"Uh, Tina wants to do Pacific Overtures, Miss Saigon, and Flower Drum Song." Tina says to Mr. Schue.
"What about Wicked?" I raise my hand.
"The challenge is picking something that plays to our collective strengths, and that won't set off a firestorm in the community like Rocky Horror did." Mr. Schue says to us.
"You should do Grease." Finn suddenly said.
"Grease?" Mr. Schue raises his eyebrows.
"I know it 'cause the song I auditioned for Glee Club was from Grease, remember? Guys like it. Girls like it. People like my mom like it. It's about high school, and growing up, and being true to yourself." Finn says to us.
"Plus, the songs rock. The wisdom of Solomon." Artie added.
"All right. Grease is the word." Mr. Schue grins at us.
"Yes! Finn's back!" Artie cheering happily.
"Which is there will be open audition right? Kate feel very pretty this year." I grin.
"Of course it will be. And like fall musical last year, I trust Mr. Artie Abrams to direct this musical." Mr. Schue says to us and points at Artie. "Also Mr. Finn Hudson to direct this musical."
"Me? Mr. Schue, but I-I kinda..." Finn frowns.
"Better than you being a Big Giant Sad Sack all day." I roll my eyes.
"Get out from your comfort zone, Finn. It's time to make some new experience." Mr. Schue says to Finn.
"Alright. I'll try my best." Finn nodded.
"That's Finn Hudson, yo!" Artie cheering happily as everyone start cheering.
I'm just applauding. I feel pretty this year. And this is my senior year and I will shine bright. I will audition for Sandy part. I'm white and I'm blonde and I'm amazing. Last year might the former senior's year but this year is my year. I will get that part.

Sam's POV
"Come on, let's go home. I'm tired." I frown at Kate and take her hand.
"Sam, we need to audition and get the part we want." Kate simply said and keep looking at the music sheets. "Besides after this you can sleep in the car."
"Then who will drive?" I raise my eyebrows at her.
"Me." Kate grins at me.
"I dont trust you to drive." I shake my head.
"Five minutes okay." Kate says to me and walk away.
I let out a sigh and nodded. Glad that I love her. If it's not or if she just my another friend I might already leave her since an hour ago because I'm so sleepy. But now she kidnapped me to a music store and looking for music sheet to audition for Grease. Kate must be really obsessed with that since those diva graduated and she assume that she will be the next diva. Well, the fact she is.
I turn my face to a cd rack until I see The Band Perry album. I know Kate really loves them. Maybe I can buy this one for her birthday present soon. And maybe at that time she will realize that I'm into her.
I look around and she keep busy looking for music sheet. I take that cd in hurry then bring it to cashier and pay that while is busy with her diva wannabe stuff.
After that I put that cd into my ransel in hurry or she will find it and I cant give her a surprise. I dont know but day by day my love to her is getting bigger especially when she made me feel needed. That's awesome.
"I cant find it." Kate said sadly and shakes her head.
"You can do any other song." I roll my eyes and walk out from that store.
"Wait for me!!" Kate shouts.
I walk to my car and get into my car. Kate run from that store and get into my car. "I'm so sleepy. So you wanna go home or come over to my house?" I ask her and start driving.
"Sam, can I drive?" Kate asks me.
"No. I'd arther to be your driver forever in your life than let you drive." I shake my head.
"Ugh okay. I wanna go home." Kate sighs.
"You mad at me?" I frown at her.
"No. I want to check out Kurt's book rack and maybe I can find my music sheet. Or call Blaine." Kate grins at me.
"You wanna drive?" I ask her.
"No." Kate shakes her head. "If I hit your car, my dad wont give me a car. I will ask my dad to teach me how to drive and it's better to hit his Range Rover Sport actually." Kate laughs.
"Range Rover Sport is like every men's dream car. You do that, your dad will kill you." I said to her.
"My dad wont kill me." Kate shakes her head.
I chuckle and still driving. Her innocence always makes me wanna laugh out loud. Her confidence, she is the funniest girl that I've ever met. And I just really really love her but I dont know wanna tell her. Or I dont know how. But at least I know one thing. She wont kiss another guy because I own that lips.
"Arrived. Get in now." I said to her and park my car in front of her house.
"Thank you by the way." Kate grins at me and take her ransel then went out from my car.
I keep looking at her until she walks into her house and get in. I let out a sigh and go back driving away. That girl really make me crazy but I have to keep it cool. Sam is cool. Cool is Sam.

Kate's POV
I'm walking in the hallways alone and looking for the Grease audition's board. I keep looking until I see Sam and Blaine are standing in front of an announcement board.
"Hey guys." I smile at them.
"Here little monster come." Sam simply said.
"Shut up fishy lips." I roll my eyes and write my name on the Grease audition board.
"As president and vice president, we can pretty much decree which ever parts we want, right?" Sam says to Blaine.
"I'm not sure I'm gonna do the musical this year. I'm not in the right headspace to do a project like Grease. Since Kurt and I broke up, I haven't slept, I lost my appetite. I don't even gel on week." Blaine exhales.
"Blaine, you should have an activity." I frown at him.
"This is pretty serious, then." Sam simply said.
"Sam, Kurt was my soul mate. We talked about spending the rest of our lives together. About retiring in Provincetown and buying a lighthouse and starting an artists' colony. And now he won't even return my calls. He won't text me. And that gilmore girls box set I sent him was returned to me, unopened. He's gone. Maybe forever." Blaine says sadly.
"You can give that gilmore girls box set to me." I said to Blaine.
Sam nodges at me and rolls his eyes. "Dude, I get it, except for the lighthouse part. But look, everybody's been there. You'll get through it." Sam says to Blaine.
"I dont know. I'll see you guys around." Blaine says to us then walk away.
"He looks so desperate in love." I said to Sam.
"Like you." Sam simply said.
I roll my eyes. "Whom you audition for?" I ask him.
"Kenickie. Grease Lightning is my ringtone." Sam says to me.
"Great. We can have audition together. I have an idea." I grin at him and take his hand.
"What are you gonna do?" Sam frowns at me.
"Makeover." I simply said and walk to the costume shop.
I walk enter the costume shop and looking for the stuff I need for Grease audition. I really want that part and I have to get that part or I'll be damn for my entire high school life.
"Isnt this crazy?" Sam asks me.
"Nope. Grease song is rock and if we want to get that part we have to be rockstar. That's it." I said to Sam and throw leather jacket to him.
"Kate, dont be crazy." Sam rolls his eyes.
"I'm not. Do you want get your part or not?" I raise my eyebrows at him.
"Alright." Sam sighs.
I keep choosing the costume for Grease audition today. I want Sandy part so bad and since the director is my step-brother who is also my ex-boyfriend and the other one is my ex-boyfriend, I guess I will get that part. I'm amazing.
~~~~
"They call Mercedes and Mike for this audition." I said to Sam.
"We will get our part. Dont worry about that." Sam grins at me.
"You came out from that door okay." I said to him.
Sam just nodded as we both are standing in the backstage waiting for our name being called to have this Grease audition.
"Kate Hummel." Mercedes called from the microphone.
I nodded to the band and they start playing the music. I jump from the backstage and walk to the stage while holding microphone and start singing.
Kate:
Oh make me over
I'm all I wanna be
A walking study
In Demonology
Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you've really made it
Hey, so glad you can make it now
I point to the another side of the stage until Sam jumped to the stage and start singing together with me.
Sam:
Oh look at my face
My name is might have been
Kate and Sam:
My name is never was
Sam:
My name's forgotten
Kate and Sam:
Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you've really made it
Hey, there's only us left now
Kate (with Sam):
When I wake up (in my makeup)
It's too early (for that dress)
Sam (with Kate):
Wilted and faded (somewhere in Hollywood)
I'm glad I came here (with your pound of flesh)
Kate:
No second billing cause you're a star now
Oh Cinderella, they aren't sluts like you
Sam:
Beautiful garbage, beautiful dresses
Can you stand up or will you just fall down?
Kate and Sam:
You better watch out
Oh what you wish for
It better be worth it
So much to die for
Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you've really made it
Hey, there's only us left now
Kate (with Sam):
When I wake up (in my makeup)
Have you ever felt (so used up as this?)
Sam (with Kate):
It's all so sugarless
(Hooker, waitress)
Model, actress
(Oh just go nameless)
Kate:
Honeysuckle
She's full of poison
She obliterated everything she kissed
Sam:
Now she's fading somewhere in Hollywood
I'm glad I came here with your pound of flesh
Kate and Sam:
You want a part of me
Well I'm not selling cheap
No, I'm not selling cheap
We ended up our song with full of whooping and applauding from those judges. Sam and I look at each other and grin at each other then hi-five.
"Wow. I actually never see you both go out from your comfort zone like this." Artie says to us.
"Okay okay so what about the part you want?" Finn asks us.
"Obviously Sandy. I'm blonde." I grin at them.
"What about you, dude?" Mike asks Sam.
"Kenickie. Uh, "Greased Lightning" is my cell phone ringtone, and I've been knocked out by a car door before, so I was really looking forward to re-creating the reality of that moment onstage." Sam grins at them.
"We'll let you know." Mercedes smiles at us.
Sam and I hi-five then walk off from the stage. "We made it!" Sam grins at me then hugging me really tight and swing me through the air.
"I cant breath!" I groan and push his body away. "But yes we made it." I grin at him.
Sam and I walk out from the auditorium and go back walk in the hallways. "I'm pretty sure that we will get the part we want." Sam grins at me.
"Well, I'm just pretty." I said proudly.
"Over confidence." Sam rolls his eyes.
"That's better than overacting or overdose." I said to him.
"What about over and over?" Sam asks me.
"I dont know what are you saying." I frown at him.
"Well, I'm just pretty." Sam makes an impression of me then walk away.
I'm still standing in the hallways and laughing. Only him who can make the impression of me and it was always the funniest. i***t.

I'm sitting down on the sofa in my living room and watching Grease. I guess to be a Sandy I have to built Sandy character inside me. And I'm considering to change my name to be Sandy after this.
"Football match!" Finn suddenly take tv remote from the table in front of me.
"Watch it in your room!" I protest and take the tv remote from his hand and continue watching Grease.
"Kate, this is like an old movie." Finn says to me.
"Yeah but I want Sandy part so bad. I'm considering to change my name to be Sandy. You will give me the part right?" I said to him.
"Depends." Finn simply said.
"On what?" I raise my eyebrows at him.
"Cook me Mac n Cheese." Finn grins at me.
"You want with cheedar cheese or mozarela one?" I stand up from my seat.
"You really want to cook me that?" Finn asks me.
"Yes. I'm also hungry actually. But give the Sandy part to me right?" I grin at him.
"That's a bribe." Finn simply said.
"Do you want your Mac n Cheese or not?" I roll my eyes and walk to the kitchen. "And dont try to change my Grease with football match."
"Hey, I was wondering. Are you and Sam are dating?" Finn asks me.
"Nope. Blaine, Sam, and I are like BFF now. We always be together. But we arent dating. I dont even have a feeling for him." I said to Finn while cooking. "But I kinda have crush on someone."
"Who?" Finn simply asks.
"Puck's brother. He is cute and sexy. Then he greeted me and he said 'we should hang out someday'. Well, he havent officially ask me out yet but yeah." I giggle.
"Well, he was auditioning as Danny." Finn simply said.
"Seriously?! Which mean that he will be my Danny?"
"I dont know. The choice is not only in my hand. I'm the lead director but Artie, Mercedes, and Mike also take parts too." Finn says to me.
"Is there anyone else who want to be Sandy or Danny?" I ask him.
"Yes, but I cant tell you. It's director secret." Finn simply said.
"So did Rachel already talk to you?" I ask Finn.
"Yeah. She met me and we are officially-officially broken up. I was so stupid you know. How could I set her free like that? Now, I lost my girlfriend, and my future. I have nothing." Finn sighs.
"You have yourself." I said to him.
"That's what Rachel told me." Finn simply said.
"If you both are mean to be together, you will be together. For now, just figure out the things you want to be." I said to him.
"Like what?" Finn asks me. "By the way, Mr. Schue told me that he is going to Washington DC for couple months and he want me to take over the glee club but I havent give him the answer yet."
"Why?" I raise my eyebrows at him and give him a bowl of Mac N Cheese.
"I'm not sure I can do that. I'll think about that later. By the way, thanks." Finn says to me.
"You're welcome." I simply nodded and turn my face to the tv while eating a bowl of mac n cheese.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm standing in front of my locker and put my book inside my ransel and checking out the schedule for myself today. I cant wait until Grease audition. I really want that part. I want Sandy part so bad.
"Hi, I'm Ryder Lynn!" A guy suddenly smirks at me and standing next to my locker.
"Me?" I raise my eyebrows at him.
"Yeah. You." He smiles at me. "Ugh Finn Hudson told me that you were auditioning for Sandy in the school play and I was auditioning for Danny. I think if we are gonna work together, I need to say hi."
"Oh yeah. I'm Kate Hummel by the way." I smile back at him.
"I know. And you are so much prettier than I though." He giggles.
"Wow thank you." I giggle. "So are you-are you a senior too?" I ask him.
"I'm a sophomore. Finn Hudson came over to me and told me to join the school play so I just did. I kinda flunked my test in my former school and my parents transferred me here. And if I can make it into B, my parents will pull me out from football." He said to me.
"Well, Finn is my step-brother. He kinda flunked his test too but he graduated with better grade." I said to him and shut my locker.
"Yeah I want to be better." He nodded as we both start walking in the hallways together.
"Hey, Mr. Schue called us for glee club now." Sam suddenly takes my hand.
"Well, see you umm... Ryder." I smile to that guy and walk away with Sam.
"Who is he?" Sam asks me.
"He said that he is in football team and you dont know him?" I frown at Sam.
Sam turn his face a bit. "Oh yeah I know his face but I dont know his name." Sam simply said.
"What kind of the quarterback are you?" I frown at him.
"That quarterback." Sam simply said.
I roll my eyes and toss his head until we both walk enter the choir room. Finn is sitting down on the front while Mr. Schue is busy arranging some paper.
"All right, guys, listen up. I have an announcement to make." Mr. Schue says to us.
"Adele is dead." Brittany simply said.
"No. I have been asked to join a blue ribbon panel to rewrite the arts curriculum nationwide." Mr. Schue grins at us.
"Wow! Congratulations." Artie smiles at Mr. Schue as we are applauding.
"Thank you. I'll be taking a short sabbatical, which means I'm leaving McKinley at the end of the week." Mr. Schue says to us.
"What? This is crazy." Tina frowns.
"But Glee Club is your life." Artie frowns at Mr. Schue.
"Which is why this is only temporary. I'll be back right after sectionals." Mr. Schue says to us.
"Wait after sectionals?!" Tina shouts.
"Whoa! I mean, it's not like we know." Artie frowns.
"Guys, guys, calm down. Look, I knew I needed to find a replacement, which is why I brought in Finn Hudson." Mr. Schue says to us and points at Finn.
"Mr. Schue, Finn cannot take over Glee Club. He doesn't know what he's doing at all. Sorry, Finn." Tina protest.
"Guys, I know I can do this. And I've got some really great ideas for sectionals." Finn says to us.
"We'll all be dead by then!" Tina shouts angrily.
"Tina..." Artie calm Tina down.
"Finn doesn't know how to direct a musical!" Brittany protest.
"No, that's fine. No, we can't win without him." Artie says to us.
"Who's going to drive the bus?" Sugar asks the others.
"Finn Hudson, Schuester. Figgins' office, right now." Coach Sue suddenly walks in.
Finn and Mr. Schue just exhales and walk out from the choir room. So Finn just said yes for Mr. Schue's offer. Well, that's better than he is being sad sack all day.
~~~~
"Hey, Kate." A guy smiles at me and walk away.
"Hey." I just smile back at him and put my book inside my ransel.
Being national champs makes you become popular. I dont know who that guy is but everytime I walk in the hallways or in the class there must be guys who greets me or say hi. I know I'm pretty and over confidence.
I hold my ransel on my back then walk out from my classroom. After that I walk to the girls toilet to pee. Too much drink diet coke makes me wanna pee like always.
After that I wash my hands on the wastavel then put chapstick on my lips. My outfit for today is kinda simple. Only black dress, denim jacket, transparent ransel, and black vans.
I walk out from the girls toilet and turn my way about to go to choir room. Until I see the others also the Grease directors are standing in front of announcement board.
"Hey, Porcelina." Kitty smirks at me and walk away.
I roll my eyes and walk to that announcement board. I turn my face at Finn and he just half-smiled at me. I turn my face to the announcement board and read the cast result.
Brittany S. Pierce...........Cha Cha
Tina Cohen-Chang.........Jan
Joe Hart............................Doody
Sugar Motta....................Frenchie
Sam Evans........................Kenickie
Wade 'Unique' Adams...Rizzo
Kate Hummel..................Martie
Blaine Anderson............Teen Angel
Jake Puckerman.............Putzie
Ryder Lynn......................Danny Zuko
Marley Rose....................Sandy Olsson
Kitty Wilde......................Patty Simcox
I didnt get the part I want. They give the part to a new sophomore who even havent perform in glee club yet. Meanwhile me, who already sat down in choir room since three years ago didnt get the part.
I turn my face at Finn and Finn just let his head down. He know how much I want this part. "I'm not playing." I simply said and shake my head.
"Kate..." Finn turn his face at me.
"I'd rather to not playing than playing a role that I dont want to." I shake my head and about to walk off.
"Kate, I put you in costume charge since you are the most fashionable one than all of us." Finn catches my hand.
"Wow like that some prize for me. Besides you know that I'm white, I'm blonde. I'm not black who interest with mature guy." I simply said and push his hand away about to walk off.
"Kate, where are you going?" Sam stops me.
"I'm going home, Sam. You dont need to drive me home." I said without looking at Sam.
"Kate, please..." Finn catches my hand again.
"Dont worry I wont tell dad or even Kurt about this but I hope you can cook food for yourself because I dont wanna do that anymore." I push Finn's hand away and walk away.
I just cant believe that this is happening. I just want my part. I just want my senior year become brighter but this isnt happening. This is just unfair. I hate this like really.
