Sorry for not updating any sooner but i've been swamped with essays and i've still got some to do, but this is the product of my procrastination. I hope you enjoy, if not then oh well.

Sam's POV

I couldn't help but walk out of last period with a smile on my face, because seriously life can't get any better. I've got a girlfriend, I've got glee club and now I get to play a main character in our school musical.

I read the script and it looks like I have a few scenes with Rachel but she seems cool even though everyone is always saying how annoying she is. She has a really cool voice and Puck's always talking about how long her legs are, but that doesn't matter 'cause I already have a girlfriend and she has Finn.

I got to my locker and started putting away my books when someone put their hands over my eyes. "Guess who"
"Coach Beiste?" I said jokingly
"haha, very funny" Quinn replied sarcastically.
She slipped her arms away and gave me a bright smile.
"So do you want to do something tonight?"
"I can't, I have to practice my scenes with Rachel" I tried to give an apologetic smile but she just frowned and said "Well, how unfortunate for you. You have to spend time with Yentl. Maybe tomorrow then" she kissed my cheek and just walked off with the air of grace and superiority that always seemed to be following her, before she turned around the look on her face was disappointed but her eyes said otherwise. I don't think I'll ever understand what goes on in her head.

Why was she calling Rachel Lentil? Is that some kind of inside joke they have? Maybe she likes Lentil soup, my mum makes it for me in winter because it's really healthy. I better get to the auditorium to meet Rachel. Maybe she'll help me understand what's going on in our scenes because I haven't really seen the movie yet.

I walked into the auditorium and Rachel was sitting on the stage scribbling something down on her script.
"Hey Rachel"
"Oh hi Sam, I didn't hear you come in."
She immediately started to say "I've prepared what we need to go through today for our scenes in Rocky Horror. To start off I got my dad to drop off my copy of the film and my laptop so we can go through the scenes our characters share together."
"Well that sounds great but can I ask you a question before we start?"
She looked a bit confused but politely said yes.
"So, I was wondering. Why does Quinn call you Lentil?"
"I think you're mistaken. Yentl is what I'm sure you're referring too. Yentl is a character on a Broadway show and she is a girl that dresses as a boy. Quinn is known for her simple, yet self-esteem corrupting name calling, but I find that one in particular quite flattering because that character was portrayed on broadway by one Barbra Streisand who is in fact my personal idol" Her facial expression did not change though I could see the bright fire of hope that was usually in her eyes die a little when I mentioned Quinn.

"oh" Was all I could bring myself to say. Was Quinn really that horrible to people? I thought it was just the guys on the football team that were mean, I never suspected Quinn of being one of those people. Especially not after what she'd been through with the pregnancy.

There was a short silence before I decided to say "Maybe she meant it in a good way, like she thinks that you could be a successful Broadway star… or something". It was pretty weak, but I tried to make her smile because I didn't like seeing people sad, especially not girls.

"We should just start watching touch-a-touch-me because I don't think it will be a very comfortable scene to perform but that's the great thing about performing. Challenges like that are what make it extra fun." She said a bit too enthusiastically.

I guess by the look on my face she decided to add in a nervous voice "In the least provocative sense of the word 'fun' of course."

Rachel quickly pulled out her laptop and got the film ready, with an awkward silence still hanging in the air. She skipped to the scene we had to watch and I couldn't help but notice that she was so normal. That sounds really mean but everyone makes her seem like this monster diva all the time, I guess this is what they mean by not judging books by their covers.

The scene started and I realized that Janet was in her underwear, so I guess that means Rachel has to be too. I hope she's cool with that. I mean, I'm gonna have to spend at least an hour at the gym afterschool everyday but at least I'll look ab-ulous.

I started day-dreaming but then I looked back at her screen and Rocky was feeling up Janet's body, I looked at Rachel to see her expression but she just looked really serious. I haven't even gotten that far with Quinn, but I guess it's because we've only been on like 4 dates and the whole "pregnancy" thing.

Rachel was taking notes, and she still looked completely serious about it even though Janet was making lots of noises and Rocky was still touching her. This is obviously what she meant by it not being the most comfortable scene even though she didn't look out of place or uncomfortable at all, she looked kind of peaceful unlike the loud and bossy Rachel I've seen.

Before I knew it, the scene had finished and Rachel had disappeared somewhere behind the stage. I didn't know what to do, maybe she'd gone to the bathroom. I think she must've said something to me while i was day dreaming.

As I sat waiting for something to happen, I decided to see what her notes said.

At the top of the page there was a gold star and written next to it in neat printed hand writing was "Rachel Berry – Janet, Rocky Horror Picture Show ". Underneath was the heading "Touch-a-Touch-a-Touch-Me Rehearsal" and she had written a lot of notes about the scene we had just watched like "Janet wears plain white underwear with a matching bra and rips off her under-skirt during the song".

I began to get restless and I hadn't known where she'd gone off to, so I started calling out her name to make sure she was still here.
"Rachel, are you still here?"

There was no answer so I walked through the wings to see if she was insight and what I saw, left me speechless…

leaving on a sort-of cliffhanger. what does sam see that leaves him speechless?

review, if you'd like ;)
