Episode 1: Young[]
Ohio. It’s just a small town in relation to others. But, everyone knows that it has the biggest talent. Singers, dancers, actors all come from the town. An all-rounder’s journey is just starting.
Glee: The Journey Continues
A hairbrush, a mirror and some pajamas can start someone of on the path of success. That’s exactly what has happened here.
A blonde sixteen year old girl was singing at the top of her lungs, and dancing, in front of her mirror.
I threw a wish in the well, Don't ask me,
I'll never tell I looked to you as it fell,
And now you're in my way
I trade my soul for a wish,
Pennies and dimes for a kiss I wasn't looking for this,
But now you're in my way
Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot night, wind was blowin' Where you think you're going, baby?
“Autumn can you please turn that down?” A man appeared at the door. “Your mother and I are trying to watch television.”
Hey, I just met you,
Autumn walked over to her adoptive father and sang in his face.
And this is crazy,
But here's my number, so call me, maybe?
It's hard to look right, at you baaabeh,
But here's my number, so call me, maybe?
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy,
But here's my number, so call me, maybe?
And all the other boys, try to chaaase me,
But here's my number, so call me, maybe?
Mr Sanchez couldn't contain his smile. He loved it when she sung. Autumn smiled back, twirling a finger in her hair.
You took your time with the call,
I took no time with the fall,
You gave me nothing at all, but still, you're in my way,
I beg, and borrow and steal,
Have foresight and it's real,
I didn't know I would feel it, but it's in my way,
“You better become famous with that voice one day and move out. You have a great voice but it can get annoying.” The man of the house called as he walked away.
Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans,
Skin was showin' Hot not, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?
She went back to her mirror and sang again.
It's hard to look right, at you baaabeh,
But here's my number, so call me, maybe?
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy,
But heres my number, so call me, maybe?
And all the other boys, try to chaaase me,
But here's my number, so call me, maybe?
12 Hours Later
“Beep. Beep. Good Morning Ohio, if you’ve set your alarm to seven o’clock then the first voice you’ll here today is my voice. So, get your lazy butts up and get to work or the first day school!”
Autumn wacked her alarm, not caring which button she pressed. She stood up and looked in the mirror. She was a mess. Suddenly her eyes opened wide. She had to get in the shower first or there would be little hot water. Autumn quickly took her tail and ran to the bathroom.
As she got nearer, she knew she’d be the one to have the cold water. Although, she learnt something new; her dad could actually sing.
He was singing a classic Michael Buble song.
I'm not surprised, not everything lasts,
I've broken my heart so many times, I stopped keeping track,
Talk myself in, I talk myself out,
I get all worked up, then I let myself down,
Autumn sat down leaning her back against the door.
I tried so very hard not to lose it
I came up with a million excuses
I thought, I thought of every possibility
Autumn joined in, causing her father to stop in shock.
And I know someday that it'll all turn out
You'll make me work, so we can work to work it out
And I promise you, kid, that I give so much more than I get
I just haven't met you yet.
Mr Sanchez then joined in with his daughter for the rest of the song.
I might have to wait, I'll never give up
I guess it's half timing, and the other half's luck
Wherever you are, whenever it's right
You'll come out of nowhere and into my life
And I know that we can be so amazing
And, baby, your love is gonna change me
And now I can see every possibility
An hour later Autumn was just leaving the house. She had decided to ‘down-dress’ today, she was wearing a simple grey top with dark jeans and a blue hoodie. She wanted to make an impression on the first day of her sophomore year but didn’t want to be remembered by the freshmen as a wacky dresser.
Autumn felt more relaxed this year. It was her second year. It was a fresh start. She took out her phone and sent a text to her best friend, who she also walked to school with; Stevie Van Hughes.
‘A new school year :D Meet me in the usual place?’ In no time, she received a text from the young lad.
‘Yay! (sarcasm) Sure. Be there soon.’
Stevie and Autumn had been best friends for absolutely ages. Recentley, Stevie had discovered that he was bisexual and told Autumn. Their bond got even stronger after that because Autumn saw a bit of herself in him. She had also been doubting her sexuality, she knew she wasn’t totally a lesbian but maybe bisexual.
When they saw each other they ran and hugged. Stevie was wearing a awesome black coat, light blue jeans and some slick black shoes.
“Dude, I haven’t seen you in ages!” Stevie grinned when they pulled away.
“I’ll say! You look gorgeous!” Autumn told him as they started to walk together.
“You too!” Stevie returned the compliment.
The journey to school was filled witth meaningless friendly chatter.
On arrival to school they saw just why McKinley was such a bad school to go to. There was the drunken bumb, always with a drink in his hands; Harry Stylinson. The girly bubbly girls; Idna Shapiro, Imogen Pierce and Selena Paylin. The quiet girls; Amy Ryder and Whitney Jones. The jocks; including Michael Manson. The quiet ‘invisible’ guys; Walker Parker and Justin Kingston. And finally, the new kids, in their groups from their old schools.
But, this year, something was new and different. There was a new guy leaning on the wall by the school entrance. Stevie and Autumn knew the school like the back of the hand so they realised this.
“Look over there. It’s one of the new kids. He doesn’t look like a freshman.” Stevie pointed out.
“Mmm. He’s gorgeous.” Autumn was nearly drooling. “I’m gonna get a piece of that.” She started to walk towards the new man. Stewie followed calling her.
“You can’t just walk up to him. You’ll scare him off!” He joked.
“Are you trying to tell me something?” Autumn joked back. Suddenly the bell rang, signalling homeroom. The new student walked off.
“Too late.” She half-sighed, walking with Stevie to their homeroom.
When the pair entered homeroom, as if by luck or fate, the new student was sitting with one of their friends; Whitney.
The two walked over. Autumn sat next to Whitney and Stevie took a seat next to the next boy.
“Hey, guys.” Whitney smiled as they came over. “This is Louis. He’s just transferred from Carmel High School.”
“Hi.” He greeted rather shyly.
“Dont worry, dude. We don’t bite.” Stevie grinned, maybe too largely.
“I’m Autumn, and this is Stevie.” Autumn explained to him.
“You know, I’m amazed you guys aren’t starting a glee club this year.” Louis told them..
“There has been a glee club for the past two years, now everyone has graduated off. We thought about joining but they got bullied to the core everyday.” Whitney sighed.
“Listen up class.” Their homeroom teacher called from the front. They had been so busy in their conversation that they didnt realise Mr Schuester had walked in.
“Let me just take the register and you can get back to talking.” He told the class. Mr Schue read all of the names in the list out. Afterwards, the four continued their conversation.
“We never got bullied for going to glee club in my old school. It was fun.” Louis admitted. The foursome continued the conversation on the subject of glee clubs but, little did they know, Will was listening in.
When the bell signally first period went, Will ushered the student out and quickly walked to Principal Figgins’ office.
“Sir, I’d like to start another glee club.” He demanded.
“William, William, William.” Figgins repeated. “I’m afraid I can’t let you do that. We have had too many bullying cases come from that glee club.”
“What? You think the Kurt and Karofsky situation was just from the glee club? What about Santana coming out? They were bound to happen anyway. And, how much has the club helped the school? It’s created a marriage that would have never happened otherwise. The club has got several people to Yale, NYADA and the list goes on. That wasn’t me. That was glee club. Please, just give me another chance.” Will begged.
“Okay, Will. You have two months. That gives you upto Sectionals. You have upto then to get at least twelve members and change someone’s life.” Figgins bargained.
“That sounds fair.” Mr Schue agreed. “I won’t let you down.”
Will had a plan, and it involved four students from his homeroom.
At around ten o’clock, an announcement was made through the microphone and into the school. It called ‘Louis Tyles, Autumn Sanchez, Whitney Jones and Stevie Van Hughes’ to the choir room.
Mr Schue was standing alone.
“Guys, come in. Take a seat.” Will greeted, signalling to the two rows of seats, one of the two on a raised platform, where the past New Directions sat. The four sat down on the back row, in the middle.
Will took a chair from the side and straddled it.
“I overheard your conversation about glee club in homeroom. And, I’ve decided I would like you four to be the start of New Directions two. Of course I’ll need to hear you sing first but, before that, I need to know if you’re interested.” The spanish teacher asked.
“I’ll do it.” Whitney told him. Will nodded.
“I’m in.” Louis confirmed. Will smiled.
“I’ll do it if Autumn does.” Stevie stated. Will frowned.
“I can’t believe I’m doing this. I’m in.” Autumn smiled. Will screamed and pulled them all into a hug.
“So, can you guys audition today? Or is it too short notice?” Will asked.
The four looked at each other and smiled.
“We can audition now.” Whitney told him, reading her friends faces.
“Okay then. Come on up, Whitney you can be first.” Will moved his chair to the side and took Whitney’s seat.
“Can I use the piano?” She asked. Will nodded. She sang gracefully;
I let it fall, my heart,
And as it fell, you rose to claim it,
It was dark, and I was over,
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me,
My hands, they were strong,
But my knees were far too weak,
To stand in your arms,
Without fallin' to your feet.
But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew
All the things you'd say
They were never true, never true
And the games you'd play
You would always win, always win
But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Let it burn while I cried
'Cause I heard it screamin' out your name, your name
When I lay with you
I could stay there, close my eyes
Feel you here forever
You and me together, nothing is better.
Two students who were bunking lessons were walking past.
“Justin, come here and listen to this.” The girl called the boy.
“Imogen, we’re bunking. Which means we should hide.” Justin told her.
The two listened until the song drew to a close.
“Who’s next?” Will asked.
“I will.” Autmn said standing up. She began to sing what she thought was the best song by her favourite artist.
The day I, first met you
You told me, you never fall in love
Imogen quickly walked in and sang, causing Autumn to stop in suprise.
But now that, I get you
I know fear, is what it really was
Now here we are, so close
Yet so far, haven't I passed the test
When will you, realize, baby I'm not like the rest
Autumn then joined her;
Don't wanna break your heart, wanna give your heart a break ,
I know you're scared it's wrong, like you might make a mistake,
There's just one life to live, and there's no time to wait, to waste,
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break,
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break,
Oh yeah yeah.
They then sang the rest of the song alternating who sings the solos.
Will, Louis and Stevie clapped.
“Imogen, what are you doing here?” Will asked.
“Long story.” She said, rather bluntly.
“So, are we in?” Autumn asked.
“Sure.” Will grinned.
“Ladies first.” Louis joked, giving Stevie the stage.
He slowly walked up, while grinning.
“He’s got a nice arse, aint he?” Louis whispered to Autumn
“Yes. I’ve noticed that several times.” Autumn giggled. “But he likes you. Go for it!”
“Really?” He smiled as Stevie began to sing. Louis realised what the song was after a few beats. Crap. Is he singing a love song for me?
Sitting here feeling kinda crazy
But not just any crazy
It's the kind you feel when you love somebody
And I know that my baby
Is calling somebody else baby
And I can't sit still
Look how gone it got me
Who knew that my heart could ever bruise
You see this scar here on my chest
I'm hurting and he don't even care
Justin wanted to join in but he didn’t have the courage. After much hesitation he walked off Stevie flashed a quick look at Louis before he turned to face Will to see his response.
It's 4 AM and my lover won't answer
He's probably somewhere with a dancer
Sippin' champagne while I'm in his bed
Standing here and I'm getting heated
Pull me up a drink I swear I need it
I think I'ma about
About to hurt somebody
Swear this man is begging me to leave him
Getting sick of being so mistreated
Another night without
Without his arms around me
Who knew that my heart could ever bruise
You see this scar here on my chest
I'm hurting and he don't even care
The music drew to a close.
“Well, everyone’s been singing quite depressing songs. So, I thought I’d turn the beat up!” Louis smiled, walking to the piano and switching it too the Techno setting.
Forgive me for what I have done,
Cause i'm young, yeah i'm young
Forgive me for what I have done,
Cause i'm young, yeah i'm young
I don't mean to frighten you off
It's just fun, it's just fun
I don't mean to frighten you off
It's just fun, it's just fun
We live on the edge the life
We don't even compromise
We rest because we run of time
Forgive us for what we have done
Cause we young, we young, we young
I said forgive us for what we have done
Cause we young, we young, we young
Louis kept flashing looks in Stevie’s direction.
I make mistakes that I learn from
Cause I'm young, yeah i'm young
I'm sorry i'm not even dumb
Cause i'm young, yeah i'm young
No worry about what i'll become
It's just fun, it's just fun
I spend everything of my love
It's just fun, it's just fun
“I guess we have the first five members of the 2014 New Directions!” Mr Schuester roared as they all hugged each other.
