Chapter 38

Kate's POV

I walk to the gymnasium with holding Blaine's and Sam's elbow next to me. The decoration of this prom is really beautiful and I cant believe that the prom committe really work so hard on this.

"You both dance first, I'm gonna find Tina." Blaine says to us and walk away.

"I'm sleepy actually." I simply said.

"You are not sleeping beauty." Sam rolls his eyes and holds my hand and walk to the dance floor.

"Well, I'm just beauty." I said proudly.

"Shut up, just dance with me." Sam chuckles.

I turn my face to the stage. And I see Jake, Ryder, Unique, also Marley are singing on the stage. Jake suddenly turn his face at me and he is suddenly freezing. I just turn my face away and hold Sam's hand.

"If you wanna go home, we can go home." Sam says to me.

"No. I need to move on." I said to Sam.

"Ouch dont hold that really tight. It still bit hurts." Sam says to me.

"I'm sorry." I half-smiled at him.

"It's okay. I dont wanna make you sad." Sam smiles at me.

The slow music start begin after Jake and the others ended up their song. I hold Sam's hand and have slow dance with him and lean my head on his chest while we both having slow dance.

Last Sadie Hawkins I was dancing with Jake and told him that I wanted to be with him but now it's different. I went here with my bestfriends who never let me down alone.

"You really dont wanna be in a relationship?" Sam asks me.

"I dont even know what love is, Sam. I've been naive and can easily be blinded with something that I called love but the fact, I didnt know what is that. And I guess that's why, I'm stupid in a relationship and I've been cheated on and everything." I said to Sam.

"You dont even wanna open your heart for a new people?" Sam asks me.

"I'd rather date my best friend than date anyone new because I already knew them." I chuckle.

"Then date me." Sam grins at me.

"So you can hook up with me and make out with me?" I raise my eyebrows and chuckle.

"Probably." Sam chuckles.

"What about we back to our plan at first? Being friends with benefits and if we are still single until 27th, we will marry each other. But our secret. Blaine doesnt need to know about this." I smirk at Sam.

"Whatever you want to do. And soon or later you will know what love is." Sam smiles at me.

I smile back at him and lean my head on his chest. "Maybe this is karma because I broke our promises."

"Stop being sad sack okay. I'm here. Blaine is here. We are here for you." Sam put his hands around my waist.

"I just hope that I could find a boyfriend like you." I sigh.

"You will find one some day." Sam simply said.

The music suddenly stops. Sam and I stop dancing and turn our face to the stage. Principal Sylvester standing on the stage and she must be wanna tell the prom king and queen.

I leave Sam's hand and walk to the stage along with the other nominees. And standing there. Even though I know I'm not gonna win and I dont care with that.

"Congratulations, New Directions, on accomplishing the impossible. You've made me hate the Beatles. Your nominations for prom king are: Stoner Brett, Blaine Anderson Artie Abrams and that radical cleric kid. And now your nominees for prom queen. Neck brace Cheerio, Asian Number One, Porcelain's Little Sister, and some other chick. And now here's the moment you've all been waiting for because your lives are so devoid of meaning something like this seems very important. This can't be right. Okay, what the hell do I care, huh? Your prom king and prom queen are Stoner Brett and Tina Cohen-Chang." Principal Sylvester says from the microphone.

I'm smiling and applauding for Tina. Tina walks to the middle and smiling at us while she get crowned. Finally her dream to be prom queen can be true.

I walk to the corner and still smiling and applauding for Tina. But suddenly behind the curtain in the stage I see Dottie is standing holding a wire. I frown and follows that wire until it landed right above Tina and it's like giant bucket of slushee there. I turn my face again and Bree is smirking right at Dottie.

"Tina! Move!" I shout and run to Tina and push her away but that giant bucket with red slushee fall down from above me.

Everyone gasped and my beautiful dress become red with slushee. The empty bucket from that slushee fall down and it hits Stoner Brett's head and make him fainted. Bree start laughing out loud and everyone also the same thing.

I wanna cry but I cant. I turn my face and Tina just fall down to the ground but she doesnt get any slushie or anything and just looking at me.

Sam walks to the stage and cover up my shoulder with a towel and bring me out of here while everyone is still laughing. I know this is really embarassing and my beautiful, expensive dress is dirty. But at least Tina get her crown.

Sam bring me to the empty choir room and clean my face from the slushie but suddenly tears fall down to my face.

"Hey, dont cry." Sam says to me and wipe my tears away.

"Kate, you alright?" Blaine and the others walk in.

"We need get you to something dry." Marley says to me.

"No, it's fine." I shake my head. "But at least, Tina is fine right?" I said to them.

"You know that there was slushee above me?" Tina frowns at me.

"I saw Dottie hold a wire and Bree smirked at her like give her comando or something. I shouted but you didnt hear me so I pushed your body away. You okay?" I said to Tina.

"You dont have to do that for me." Tina says to me.

"That's okay. This is my second times I've been humiliated in a prom." I chuckle.

"Okay, we will get you clean up and you can go back to prom." Blaine says to me.

"I dont have any dress to wear, Blaine." I said to Blaine.

"You can have mine." Kitty says to me.

"Or mine." Marley says to me.

"Or mine. Even though it will be crime to break this look." Unique grins at me.

"Thank you guys, but I just wanna go home right now." I half-smiled at them.

"I will drive you home." Sam says to me.

"You can come back seriously. I would give this crown to you for what you did to me." Tina says to me.

"That's yours, Tina. It's just, I shouldnt come. But Blaine and Sam keep insisting me to come. I'm sorry, you guys, I just have an awful week. Have fun." I half-smiled at them and walk out from the choir room.

I walk in the hallways and let my head down. Sam walks next to me and cover my shoulder with a new towel and holds my hand.

I keep walking and let my head down until we get to the parking lot and Sam unlock his car and let me in by open the passenger door to me. I get into his car and sit down on the passenger seat until tears fall down to my face.

"Just cry if you want to cry." Sam says to me.

"I shouldnt come, Sam." I'm crying.

Sam grabs my body and hugs me really tight and rubs my hair. I'm still crying in his hug until I push his body away and wipe my tears away and turn my face at him.

"Your white shirt become red." I said to Sam.

"It's okay." Sam rubs my hair and start driving.

I wipe my tears away and clean my hair and my body from the red slushee with the towel Sam gave me while we are on the way to my house. I really shouldnt come.

"I swear I just dont wanna be in a relationship anymore. I dont wanna date. Those all bullshit. I'm trauma with that and done with that." I said to Sam.

"Dont worry, I'm still here and we'll marry each other." Sam chuckles.

"Sam, you're really the best. Whoever get your love is the luckiest girl in this world." I smile at Sam.

Sam chuckles and still driving. I turn my face at him and he just looking at the street and focus to drive. I never found a best friend who want to do anything for me like this. He is the best and special. I wont hurt him or let him down. I promise.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back to school. Back to McKinley. I already forget about what happened during prom and my relationship with Jake. I'm totally over with that. I live my own life now and I dont care with what's in front of me. The truth is graduation is coming over and I will live in New York with my brother and my beloved friends.

"Rachel called me that she got Funny Brice for her first Broadway show." I said to the others and walks into the choir room.

"Wow that's amazing." Mr. Schue says to us.

"This is more amazing, Mr. Schue." Tina laughs while looking at her phone.

"What's that?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Blaine's twerk epic fail." Tina laughs.

I walk closer to them and look at the video on Tina's phone and start laughing. "I swear I will show this to Kurt."

"Dont you dare!" Blaine yelled.

"Blaine, this is nothing to be embarrassed about." Mr. Schue says to Blaine.

"Yes, it is!" Sam laughs out loud.

"That's a twerk fail, Gawker nightmare." Blaine simply said.

"No, this is a revelation." Mr. Schue says to Blaine.

"If this is turning into what I think it's turning into I just wanna say that it's physically impossible for me to twerk." Artie says to us.

"I beg to differ." Kitty smirks at Artie.

"Look how you're all riveted by that video. That's the kind of reaction we need from the judges if we're gonna one-up Throat Explosion at nationals. We need to edge up our America's sweetheart image a bit- show the judges that we're not afraid to rebel." Mr. Schue says to us and write 'Twerk' on the white board.

"Mr. Schue, what if some of us don't know how to twerk." Marley says shyly.

"Have no fear, your twerktorial is here." Mr. Schue grins at us.

"I love twerking." I said to them.

"You cant twerk." Sam says to me.

"Miley Cryrus is my guilty pleasure okay." I simply said.

"Twerk it, girl." Kitty says and start twerking.

"If you can dance like Blaine did in that video we are gonna need a bigger trophy case." Mr. Schue says excitedly at us.

"Yeah! Twerk! Twerk! Bounce, bounce. Yeah! Twerk, twerk! Watch this, Marley!" Artie says to Marley while showing Kitty's twerk.

"Alright. Mr. Puckerman and Kitty. Show us your twerk learn." Mr. Schue says to Jake and Kitty.

Jake stand up from his seat and walk passed me and smirked at me. I roll my eyes and cross my hands on my chest.

"Okay, listen up. Twerking did start in Atlanta in the club scene, but it is global now. And whether you call it the booty pop or "P" pop or the sissy bounce all that you need to do it is a working booty and the right attitude and education, so we'll start with the basics. Kitty?" Jake says to us and points at Kitty.

"All right, you basic bitches. Feet shoulder-width apart.nBend your knees. Turn them out, hands on hips. Thumbs on the butt. And pop it, pop it, pop it, pop it." Kitty says to us and shows us how to twerk.

I cross my hands on my chest and doesnt feel good to be in the same room with Jake and he is teaching us about how to do this.

"Unique, come on! You are a natural!" Mr. Schue says to Unique.

"I been twerkin' in my bedroom since I was six to Miss Beyoncé." Unique says to Mr. Schue.

"Hey, Sam." Mr. Schue says to Sam.

"Yeah, that was a White Chocolate signature move." Sam says while having his stripper move.

"Stripper." I roll my eyes.

"Tina and Ryder, you'll be twerking in the back." Kitty says to Tina and Ryder.

"You dont wanna do that? You said that Miley Cyrus is guilty pleasure." Sam says to me.

"I dont have any butts to twerk." I shake my head.

"You ever twerked in front of me." Sam whisper at me and smirk at me.

"I will kill you if you say that again." I chuckle. "That's disgusting." I laugh.

"I have protection and my parents went out tonight." Sam whisper at me and laughs.

"Sam! No way!" I laugh.

"No inside joke please." Blaine rolls his eyes.

I chuckle and shake my head. Sam chuckles and go back making his stripper move. I just looking at him and I feel something different in me. What's wrong with that? That's weird.

~~~~

I'm standing in front of my locker and take my binder but my books are going to fall. I close my eyes and trying to hold that but then a hand cover my hand. I open my eyes and Sam holds my books then put it back to my locker.

"Be careful." Sam rubs my hair and open his locker next to me.

He is like my guardian angel. Safe my life from anything. I dont know. I feel something strange between me right now. Sam always be there for me all this time and I never realize that? How stupid I was. I know that he did that for bestfriend but he is more like my guardian angel.

"What?" Sam turn his face at me and raise his eyebrows then look around.

"What what?" I frown at him.

"You were looking at me like that and it was scared me. What's wrong?" Sam asks me.

"Nothing." I shake my head and turn my face to my locker. "What are you doing after school?" I ask him.

"Wanna play xbox and cuddle?" Sam asks me.

"If you dont mind." I grin at him.

"I never mind." Sam smiles at me and walk away.

I'm smiling and watch him disappear. I guess I like him. I mean he is cute, funny, and always protect me and like my guardian angel. But no, Kate. You and him are only friends with benefits and there is no feeling in friends with benefits. No, no, no. It shouldnt be happening.

~~~~

I'm sitting down in front of Sam and lean my back against his chest as he puts his hands around my belly and holds the xbox stick. It feels really warm and I never realized that I can easily fall asleep when I'm around him or in his arms despite of the fact that I'm a sleepy head.

Sam turn his face at me and looking at me. "I though you fell asleep." Sam simply said.

"Why?" I ask him.

"Because you usually talk too much and mock me with anything but now you just being quiet. What's wrong?" Sam asks me.

"Nothing's wrong." I shake my head.

"You're freezing? Or hungry? Or want something? Just talk. Your silence scared me sometimes." Sam says to me.

I take his sunglasses from his side table and wear that. "Now you cant know whether I'm sleeping or awake." I simply said.

"I can do this." Sam pulls the sunglasses.

I turn my face at him and he look at me with raises his eyebrows. He has a beautiful green eyes. We both starring at each other until Sam pushes his face closer to me and kisses me softly. I kiss him back and put my hand around his shoulder. My heart beats so fast right now and I know something's wrong with me right now. Ugh.

We pull our lips away. Sam smiles at me and turn his face back to the tv. "Stay here and dont leave me alone." Sam says and kisses my head.

"I wont." I shake my head and go back wearing that sunglasses as Sam pulls my body closer to him and it feels really warmer. Oh damn! I really have feelings for him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sam's POV

"I guess that something wrong with Kate." I said to Blaine.

"Like what? I dont see any differences in her." Blaine frowns at me.

"Okay last night, we both cuddled while I was gaming. Then she just being quiet. I though she was sleeping but she wasnt. Then she played with my sunglasses and I took that from her. She turned her face at me made my heart beat so fast so I kissed her and she kissed me back." I said to Blaine.

"Wow you both kissed for the first time." Blaine grins at me.

"Actually that wasnt first time." I simply said.

"What?" Blaine frowns.

"Oh no!" I shake my head.

"See? You both hide something from me! What's going on?" Blaine frowns at me.

"Promise me dont tell anyone not even her. Just pretend that you know nothing." I said to Blaine.

"Okay, what?" Blaine frowns at me.

"Kate and I used to be friends with benefits since junior year. We were tired with relationship and love but we both have many things in common. So we started that. We made out, we cuddled, even we had our first time together. It was no feeling at all but then we had summer fling and that's when I started to love her more than just that." I said quietly at Blaine.

"No wonder she loves smelling your armpit." Blaine rolls his eyes.

"But since the prom. She was so strange. She starred at me. And when we kissed last night, it felt really different and she become more spoilt to me." I said to Blaine.

"You didnt tell her the truth?" Blaine aks me.

"She said she doesnt wanna be a relationship anymore so I didnt tell her." I simply said.

"Sam, I think she is finally know that you're into her and she start to likes you." Blaine says to me.

"Then what should I do? Tell her? She looks like someone who got amnesia, you know." I said to Blaine.

"Dont. Take it slow." Blaine shakes his head.

"And during prom. She told me that she doesnt even know what love is."

"It's time for you to show her. But dont say anything. Just let her know by herself and you dont stop to show her your love and what love is." Blaine says to me.

"I got it, dude. Thanks." I said to Blaine.

"You both still wanna have gay sex here or go to the choir room?" Kate suddenly standing in front of Student Council Meeting Room and cross her hands on her chest.

"Hey, I cant accompany you to the park after school today." Blaine says to her.

"Seriously? Are you cheated on me like all my exes did?" Kate frowns at Blaine.

"Cooper is in town and he asked me to go out. So..." Blaine giggles. "You can go there with Sam, by the way." Blaine says to her.

"You want to go the park with me?" Kate asks me.

"We can bring McConaughey there." I nodded at her.

"But buy me ice cream." Kate grins at me.

"Yes. I will buy one." I nodded and smile at her.

"Cool. I want vanila one with extra chocolate chips." Kate shouts and walk away.

"You see that right?" I turn my face at Blaine.

"She really likes you." Blaine chuckles as we walk out from the meeting room.

"I get my girl back." I chuckle.

We walk to the choir room and everyone is argues about the Sue's corner last night about she banned the twerk. Everyone is argue and Kate just sitting down in the front seat and looking at them.

"Guys! Guys! Guys, what's going on?" Mr. Schue walks in.

"Did you not see Principal Sylvester's latest Sue's Corner? She's trying to take away our God-given right to twerk, and it's bullcrap!" Jake protest.

"I think we're all feeling that we were onto something with this "twerking at nationals" thing." Tina says to us.

"I completely agree with you. Principal Sylvester is drawing a line in the sand. She's deciding what's acceptable and what's not, and that's just not gonna stand. The fact is, twerking is about blurring the lines between past and the present between men and women, between tradition and envelope-pushing. It's all in that Alan Thicke song that I love." Mr. Schue says to us.

"That's Robin Thicke." Kate mumbles.

"Seriously?" I frown at her.

"What do you know about that?" Kate rolls her eyes then lean her head on my shoulder.

"Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke?" Artie asks Mr. Schue.

"Exactly." Mr. Schue nodded.

"That's not what that song's about." Artie frowns and turn his face at me.

"Sue Sylvester wants to draw a line in the sand? Well, we're gonna blur it and blow this debate wide open!" Mr. Schue says to us and play the tape.

I take her hand and walk lead her out from the choir room until Bree and those cheerios comes to Jake and Jake just look at Kate but she turn her face away.

We ended up our twerking song in auditorium with almost all the student follow us here and cheering. Jake turn his face at Kate and Kate just holding my hand and turn her face away avoiding him. I guess that she is really hate that guy now.

Kate's POV

I walk in the hallways and open my locker until many letters and love origami fall down from my locker. I roll my eyes and kick those letter away. I know whose this is coming from. One and only Jake. He is still trying to apologize to me. But I really hate him and I dont wanna talk to him anymore.

I take my ransel and shut my locker but Jake standing next to my locker and smiles at me and hold a stalk of rose. "What do you want?" I glare at him.

"Please forgive me." Jake smiles at me.

"No second chance for a cheater. I already told you that." I simply said and walk away.

"I know I broke your trust but please give me second chance. It's sucks without you." Jake blocks my way.

"I dont care." I simply said and turn around.

Jake catches my hand and stops me. I really want to push his hand away but he hold me really tight. "Please, give me second chance and I'll fix everything." Jake says to me.

"Let her go or I will beat you up again."

I turn my face and Sam walks from behind me. Jake pushes my hand away and glares at Sam. "I will never ever let her go like that." Jake glares at Sam then walk away.

I shake my head and hold my wrist because Jake was really hold me tight and left red marks on my wrist.

"You okay? He didnt hurt you or anything right?" Sam asks me.

"No. Thank you, Sam." I said to Sam.

"We better go now." Sam says to me and put his hand around my shoulder.

I turn my face at him as we both walk in the hallways together. Sam is really my guardian angel. I always feel something different when he is around me and I know it was something. I like him.
