Newest story to keep me occupied until season three starts. Disclaimer: I do not own glee.


Chapter 7: Top Of the Food Chain

It's been three weeks since I returned to my dance team and let me tell you, it feels great. I missed sitting at the popular table, I missed talking to Stacey about the mall and hot guys, and mostly, I missed dancing.

When I told the glee club, well, let's just say it went the way I thought it would and yet, it didn't. There were some people that took it how I thought they would, bad. Others took it well and then even some took it shockingly well congratulating me.

In the past two weeks though, I've missed like 6 glee club practices and I know Coach Sylvester made mandatory practices at the same time as glee club on those days on purpose.

I've also loved the fact that we got back our kick ass dance uniforms, shorter skirts then the cheerios ever had and the top cut off right above the belly button, it gets us a lot of attention, and I love it. I've missed the attention, I've missed guys staring at me, I've missed all of it.

But at the same time, I miss all the jam sessions the glee club would usually do during lunch in the choir room and I've missed the arguments and just the people in general. Sometimes I wish Stacey would just start using a big vocabulary like Rachel always did. Or have one of the other girls constantly ask stupid questions like Brittany, I miss that kind of stuff.

Flashback

"Ally, you said you had something to tell us?" Mr. Shue asks as we all take a seat in the choir room. I nod and get up and stand in front of everyone.

"Well, first, I'd like to say I'm sorry about not making it to the hospital yesterday for Finn." Everyone were giving me these faces like 'it's okay' except for Puck, who was glaring.

"Second, I'd like to say that since Brittany, Santana, and Quinn all quit the cheerios, Coach Sylvester has cut the team." Everyone starts to cheer making me look down for a minute.

"Wait, how do you know that?" Santana asks curiously and I sigh. "Because since she got rid of the cheerios, she's reinstated my dance team, I'm Captain again and Sylvester is our coach." For a second they all just kind of look at me but then Kurt, Quinn, and Rachel start to cheer for me.

"That's awesome!" Quinn says and I was now confused. She was happy for me? "We all know it's your passion to dance so it's nice you have that back." Rachel says and I just nod.

"Wait, you're not ditching us, are you? Because we don't need to be down another member." Mercedes states and I shake my head.

"I'm not quitting, I love glee and I'm ready to do both." I say proudly and I hear a scoff and glare at the person. "What makes you think you can handle both? And how do we know you're not going to stab us in the back?" I was about to respond but Mr. Shue beats me to it.

"Puck! Be nice. Ally, that's great and since she's done with cheerios it looks like we have a better shot of not being terrorized anymore." Mr. Shue says and we all just nod.

"Are you going to be dance classes again?" Mike asks and I smile. "Probably, it would help me since right now all were doing is conditioning." He smiles bright and I turn to Mr. Shue.

"So we're all okay with this?" I ask looking at everyone now. They all just nod except for one arrogant jock that I decide to just ignore. It hurt, I won't lie. But maybe this will prove to him that I'm not at all into Finn anymore.

End Of Flashback

Today was the first day Finn was back in school and I hadn't even had a chance to say anything to him, I'm sure Rachel told him three weeks ago that I'm on dance team. Because of all of this though and everything that did happen, I haven't talked to him since he woke up because I think he'd be disappointed in me. I mean I didn't quit glee but I'm not there as much as I probably should.

I close my locker after grabbing my lunch and have someone wrap their arms around me. I smile until I see who it was, those weren't the arms I wished they were, but what'd I expect?

"Hey Ty." He wasn't even looking at me, he was looking at my stomach making me smack him. He smirks. "Sorry Ally, but damn, you're looking fine." I sigh, Tyler's rude comments weren't cute like his were.

Tyler Peterson, he's one of the most well known jocks at this school. He's the captain of the hockey team and a national player in lacrosse. We kind of had this thing freshmen year but it just wasn't what I wanted, he's not what I wanted. Sure, he's hot, he's got the short dirty blonde hair, bright green eyes, muscular, tall, he's what all the girls want, just not me.

"Let's go to lunch, I'll tell you about our killer routine we have set up for the football game tomorrow for halftime." He smirks at me and we start walking.

"Sounds good." We make it to our table but I immediately get pulled away by Stacey. "Girl, you're looking hot!" I smile. "Well look at you, hot mama!" I reply making us both laugh a little.

Stacey starts in on a conversation with some of the other girls about this mall date they're planning but I sort of space out. I turn my head to the left to look at their table, the glee table.

They were all laughing and smiling and talking to each other making me smile a little bit. It looked like Sam was telling a joke or doing one of his impersonations.

Me and Finn make eye contact and he smiles at me. I lightly wave and he waves back, He ushers for me to come over to them but I frown a little.

Me and Stacey had an argument two weeks ago about if I decided to sit with my glee club at lunch that she'd pull a prank on me. I'm surprised she hasn't tried to make me quit the club.

I mouth 'I can't' and he frowns himself. He gives me one last look but then turns around, I look to his left and see Puck staring at me, not glaring, not smiling but just staring. There might of been a very small frown on his face but you can never tell with him.

We haven't talked since I announced me being on dance team, it sucks because I really do miss him, I still think that he thinks that I'm hung over Finn or something and that this is just a way for me to get away from FInn or something.

I sigh and turn back to my girls.


Our football team was winning because of Sam's leadership and Puck being great about catching the ball. It was halftime now and all of us girls head out onto the middle of the field.

Right before the music starts, my eyes fall onto Puck's who was sitting down next to Sam and Mike.

I begin to sing, oh, did i mention, not only are we dancing, but Sylvester made me sing, it was one of her surprises.

It was an upbeat version of "We Are The Champions" Coach picked the song because she thought the football team would suck and at least show that we're great.

There were a lot of turns and spins and flips and just upbeat choreography. It was something I came up myself and to honor the fallen cheerios, we did a pyramid at the end except once I finished the last note, I jumped off from the top and did two flips before landing on my feet.

Everyone started to cheer making me smile big time and then all the football players came running out.

"That was killer, Ally!" MIke says giving me a hug. "Yeah, so sweet, don't tell QUinn, but you guys are so much cooler!" I chuckle a little and then I turn to Puck who was looking at me amazed.

"That was pretty, ahh... good, I guess." He was almost whispering so I could bearly hear him over the screams. The coach was yelling at me to get off the field but I turn back to Puck.

"Meet me at my car after the game ends!" I yell than run off.

It was a really close game at the end but we ended up losing because of an interception from the other team. I put on my normal clothes and start to leave the locker room when coach Sylvester stops me.

"Jillian Michaels! I have a job for you!" I sigh at the use of her nickname for me. I'm not creepy built like Jillian Michaels but Coach thinks so, she wont address me by my first name, I mean, A doesn't count. Or she'll call me Gregory sometimes.

"Yes coach?" I say sweetly. "Outstanding out there, really. I didn't realize you dancers would actually be better than my cheerios I've been teaching for years." I smile a little as she continues.

"Now that I have a new definitely award winning dance team, I only have one last thing I want to get done at this school." She says and I look at her confused.

"It's time to finally destroy and end the glee club, for good." I look at her like she was crazy. "Santana and Brittany were always awful spies and never got any of my manipulations done, so I'm counting on you, A."

"What makes you think I would help you? I like glee club!" I didn't want Sue to kill me but I had to speak my mind.

"Because if you destroy the glee club, I can promise a full ride to any dance school you want next year. I have my resources." Was she serious? omg...

"Look, Gregory, I know your father is in the hospital with severe cancer, all those medical bills, you couldn't even afford community college. I'm giving you an opportunity, help me and I'll help you." I love glee but... college man! a free ride, I need this, my mom needs this.

I take a deep breath. "Fine, I'll help." She smiles evilly at me and nods her head. "Good. It's a little bit easier for me to ruin glee since your star male lead is too weak at the moment and I'm quite positive he'll still be to week for Regionals next month. I need you to kick Ms. Berry out of lead spot." I scoff.

"That should be pretty easy, Mr. Shue says I can have some solos if I do some of my dance moves." She nods. "Good. Now I need you to also be the female lead for the duet I'm sure Shue will pick." I just nod.

"Lastly, I need you to get Puckerman as the male lead." I give her a confused look. "Wait, why?" I ask confused. "Because you need to make him fall in love with you. I don't care how, seduce him, whatever. But then, right before Regionals, you tear his heart out and then ultimately lose at Regionals. I call it, the Jesse St. James attack." I had no clue who that was but I couldn't believe that's what she was asking me to do.

Puck? Of all the guys, this would be really hard because of three reasons. One, Puck can't hang on one girl, it would be really hard to get him to fall in love if he cheats. Two, how can I make him love me if he doesn't even seem to like me? And three, I'm pretty positive he's incapable to love someone.

"I can't believe I'm saying this but fine. WHatever." I say looking down at my feet. "Good. Get with him now and I expect you to say the 'L' word before next month." With that she leaves and I feel this ache in my chest starting.

I leave the locker room heading for my car when I remember, I told him to meet me there. I forgot what I wanted to say in the first place, I'll I could think of was the 'L' word. WHy was my heart beating so fast?

I walk up to him trying to hide my emotions from him. "Did you make me wait on purpose? 'Cause the rest of the dancers left like ten minutes ago." He was smiling so I give him a small smile back.

"Sorry, Coach held me back." He just nods. "So what's up?" He asks and I sigh. "Really? You're going to act like you haven't been avoiding me since I joined back up with dance?" He looks down.

"I'm trying to ruin your rep, that's what glee kids do, right?" He says in a serious tone. "I'm still in glee." He shrugs his shoulders.

"Just not as much. Trying to impress Finn to show him you can be popular?" I glare at him and out of the blue say without thinking.

"Maybe I'm trying to impress someone else? DId you ever think that? I don't like Finn! But did you ever think that maybe, maybe I like one of the other football players? One of the more arrogant, cocky ones that just so happens to be so clueless!" He looks at me funny then looks down.

"Evans... He has a girlfriend too!" I roll my eyes and step closer to him and crash my lips on his. Oh god, I forgot what this felt like. He deepens the kiss and after a minute I pull away.

"I've liked you, you idiot." I say taking that kiss in. My heart was racing so fast right now. "Wow..." He says looking at me but with no emotion written on his face.

""Is that all you have to say, Puck because I think I..." He cuts me off with his lips and I totally get lost in it.

Stop it, Ally! This is a job! I don't care if you do or you don't like him, just get it done!

We pull a part and I look into his eyes. "I'm so glad you don't like Finn." I smile a little at his comment. "I'm not going to lie here, Puck. I've wanted to be with you for such a long time, ever since that night at the party." My lying skills were amazing at the moment, or at least, I think they were.

"I have to, no other girls compare to you and you've been constantly on my mind and I want you. That's it, I want you. I don't care about what happens to your rep and I hope you don't either because I'm not letting you go if you say yes." So many things were running through my mind right now.

I didn't even know he felt that way, wow, I just, I had no idea.

"Say yes to what?" I ask super confused right now. He smiles, it was a genuine smile too. "To being my girlfriend, Gregory." I smile a little and nod.

"I'd really like that." I say and he kisses me again, a little bit more passionate this time making my insides turn. When we let go I was speechless, I couldn't say anything.

"I'm going to rub this in Finn's face tonight and then everyone's face tomorrow at school, I have the hottest girl in this school, I'm a lucky guy." He was so happy making me smile but also have this sick feeling occur in my stomach.

"So I'll see you tomorrow then." I say and he grins. "Alright, Ally, all see you tomorrow." He gives me one last kiss before I get in my car and start to drive. I've never seen that Puck before, he was never like that with Lauren, at least from what I saw.

Next step is t get us that duet. I can't believe I might actually get a full ride to college if I pull this off.


I thought I'd continue the story a little bit longer! I'll probably stop after Regionals though just so I can focus on my other story! Stay tuned for probs like 2 or 3 more chapters...
