The first day of school had already begun. Many students hurried through the hall pushing by each other, except for Melody Jones. Melody was relieved for school to begin. She had so much planned for the school year she could hardly wait. Melody was the girl next door, she had a sweet heart, but she was known to have a smart mouth. Melody had such a beautiful voice, one people would pay to hear. Melody had golden hair, which went to her back. She had an angel face and freckles. Melody had a British accent that guy’s found attractive. Melody skimmed through her bag trying to find a pen to sign up for the new Glee Club. Melody signed the audition list, and then headed to her first class.
(In Melody's head) People are probably jealous of my talent. I mean it isn't everday you run into such a strong and amazing girl. I'm what you would call the "girl next door"/. I'm incredibly sweet, but even I have my diva side. I am eager to join Glee, hopefully Mr. Schue can see the amazing talent I have to offer.
Will Schuester was so excited about the Glee Club. He had missed Glee so much since all of his stars left, and made something of them-selves. He knew that when he arrived he had to reopen the club, and finally get some new talent back in the choir room. He was excited to see everyone audition. When the bell rang he walked down the hall to find Carla Aimee Rae Jasper struggling to reach the audition sign.
“Um, do you need help Mrs. Jasper?”
“Yes, thank you so much, I’m really happy you’re doing the new Glee club. I can’t wait to audition!” Carla said with excitement.
James walked away pretty relieved that people were actually eager to join.
The day had flown by; Mr. Schue was excited to see the people who auditioned. As he walked in he waited for his first student to begin.
“Ms. Jones, please come on stage.” Mr. Schue said loudly.
Melody walked out onto the stage. She was wearing a really pretty sun dress with her black flats.
“What are you singing?” Mr. Schue asked.
“I will be singing One Step at a Time, by Jordin Sparks.”
Hurry up and wait so close but so far away.
Everything that you've always dreamed of.
Close enough for you to taste but you just can't touch. (Melody starts to get more confident)
You wanna show the world but no one knows your name yet.
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it.
You know you can if you get the chance.
In your face and the door keeps slamming.
You wanna show the world but no one knows your name yet.
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it.
You know you can if you get the chance.
In your face and the door keeps slamming.
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated.
And you're getting all kind of impatient, waiting.
We live and we learn to take.
One step at a time there's no need to rush.
It's like learning to fly or falling in love.
It's gonna happen and it's supposed to happen.
One step at a time there's no need to rush.
It's like learning to fly or falling in love.
It's gonna happen and it's supposed to happen. (Melody’s voice grows)
That we find the reasons why, one step at a time
“Wow, you did amazing Ms. Jones! I’m so proud of you!” Mr. Schue said with pure excitement.
“Thank you Mr. Schue, I can’t wait to start getting my solos.” Melody said with such confidence.
“Next!” Mr. Schue screamed in the April Rhodes Pavilion.
Carla wheeled on the stage smiling happily.
“Well hello Ms. Jasper.” Mr. Schue said happily.
“I will be singing, My Life Would Suck Without You by Kelly Clarkson.”
Guess this means you're sorry
You're standing at my door
Guess this means you take back
All you said before
Like how much you wanted
Anyone but me
Said you'd never come back
But here you are again
'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me (belts out me)
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you
Baby I was stupid for telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong for tryin' to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Either way, I found out I'm nothing without you
'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you
“Very good Carla, I’m impressed how well you handled your voice.” Mr. Schue said smiling.
“Thank you Mr. Schue,” Carla said with a huge smile on her face, “Does that mean I’m in?”
“Sure does!” said Mr. Schue.

Angel Sander’s walked on the stage.
“Hello, I’m singing Confessions of a Teenage Broken Heart by Lindsay Lohan.”
I wait for the postman to bring me a letter
I wait for the good Lord to make me feel better
And I carry the weight of the world on my shoulders
A family in crisis that only grows older
Why'd you have to go
Why'd you have to go
Why'd you have to go
Daughter to father, daughter to father
I am broken but I am hoping
Daughter to father, daughter to father
I am crying, a part of me is dying and
These are, these are
The confessions of a broken heart (belts out heart with passion, Mr. Schue looks impressed at her skills)
Daughter to father, daughter to father
I am broken but I am hoping
Daughter to father, daughter to father
I am crying, a part of me is dying and
These are, these are
The confessions of a broken heart (Melody looks jealous at Angel, and rolling her eyes at her voice)
“That was just amazing! You have such soul that I haven’t seen for years!” Mr. Schue said baffled by her performance.
“Thank you.” Angel said blushing.
Angel walked off the stage, noticing Melody glaring at her.
Matt Williams walked on the stage.
“Hello, I’m Matt Williams, and I will be singing Rolling in the Deep by Adele. “
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark (Matt feels nervous, but starts rising with the song)
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your ship bare
See how I'll leave, with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep (starts throwing his voice out there, and impresses Mr. Schue with his confidence and pitch)
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat
Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one of you and I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared
The scars of your love remind you of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat
(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
You had my heart and soul in your hand
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
But you played it, you played it, you played it to the beat
“You did really good Mr. Williams, I can’t wait to see you in the choir room tomorrow.” Mr. Schue said happily.
“Yay!” Matt said high-pitched, “I’m honored to be in your club!”
Finnick Pairan walks onto the stage happily.
“Hello, I’m Finnick Pairan, and I will be singing Forever Young by Alphaville”
Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?
Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men
Can you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders we're getting in tune
The music's played by the madman
Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever forever
Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever
Forever young
“Good job Finnick you’re in.” Mr. Schue said calmly.
“Thank you Mr. Schue.” Finnick said in a French accent.

The last student walked on the stage.
“Hello, my name is Reece Holt, and I will be singing Cool from West Side Story.
I swear the next creep who calls me hoodlum...
ICE
You'll laugh.
Yeah, now you all better dig this and dit it good.
No matter who or what is eatin' at you, man you show it and you are

You are cuttin' a hole in yourselves for them to stick in a red

Turn off the juice, boy
Just play it cool, boy
Real cool
“Excellent Mr. Holt.” Mr. Schue said kindly.
“Awesome, I can’t wait to show you what I got.” Reece said hyper ventilating a little bit.

The next day the bell rang, and all the students came into the choir room. Melody was the first to get in, and already found her chair for the year. Angela came in with her new friend Matt, who was laughing and giggling with her. Melody gave Angela another stare, and this time Angela gave her one back. Reece noticed Matt, and started to give him an awful stare. Reece was uncomfortable around gay people, and didn’t agree with it. When Mr. Schue came in everyone quit talking and waited for him to speak.
“Alright guys, we have a lot of work to do if we want to get to nationals!” Mr. Schue said with excitement, “But first we need to recruit more people.”
“Um, can’t we just stick with who we got?” Melody said hoping he would agree.
“No Ms. Jones, we need more people, six is not enough to compete.”
“Ugh, fine!” Melody said annoyed.
“We will be opening for a pep rally tomorrow, and your song you’ll all be performing is, Under Pressure by Queen and David Bowie.

Melody walked out in the hall towards her locker. She noticed one of the jocks standing with his friends laughing. Melody bumped into one of the cheerio girls.
“You mind, please stare at my boyfriend some more.” The blonde said rudely.
“I’m so sorry…” Melody said sincerely.
“You should be dork! Now go back to your pitiful life under a rock and back off my man.” The blonde said hatefully, not backing down.
“Rachel!” The brown haired boy screamed.
“Coming, Aiden!” She said grinning.
All of a sudden one of the football players walked over and threw a red slushy straight in Melody’s face.
“Oh my gosh!” Melody screamed.
Everyone was laughing except Aidan. Melody ran off crying towards the other end of the hall.
