It was the next day and we were all sitting in the choir room. Also, Santana still hasn't talked to me.

"Guys, I've got some bad news. You know how we decided on "Sing" by My Chemical Romance for Regionals? Well, I hold in my hand a cease and desist letter from the band. We can't do it." Mr. Schue said showing us the letter.

"It was the perfect anthem." Puck says.

"How much do you want to bet Coach Sylvester has something to do with this?" Mercedes said.

"One step ahead of you." Mr. Schue said agreeing with her.

"So what are we going to do now?' I asked.

"I think we should write original songs for Regionals." Rachel suggested.

"All those in favor of voting Rachel down a second time?" Santan comments and everybody raises their hands beside me, Quinn, and Finn.

"No. I think Rachel is right. This team works best when we push ourselves and do something a little different." Quinn says.

"That's true, but if all the other teams are doing amazing songs we're not going to be so good." Mercedes commented.

"You're right. We're not going to be as good. We're going to be better. We won't be using other people's words or music. It'll be our own. Our own heart, soul, not just our voices. We have a really talented songwriter in our midst. Rachel. I was thinking maybe you and I could write a song together." Quinn explains.

"I'm with Quinn and Rachel. I mean, if these two can agree on something, it's probably an idea worth considering." Finn agrees.

"Wait, wait, so suddenly, you two are writing the music for Regionals? No way. I think that everyone should get a chance to write a song." Santana says.

"Santana's right. We can do this." Sam comments.

"What do you think, Mr. Shue?" Mercedes asks.

"I think we're doing original songs for Regionals." Mr. Schue says and we all cheer.

I had just finished writing a song for Santana and I decided to go look for her. When I finally saw her at her locker, I walked up to her.

"Hey. Can I ask you a question? We used to be really close, and I really miss being your friend." I said leaning against the locker.

"Still waiting for the question." Santana said not looking at me.

"Did I do something wrong?' I ask.

"No. Look, I don't know. Did you? All I know is you blew me off to be with wanna-be surfer boy. That's fine. It's your loss. 'Cause now I get the chance to write an awesome heterosexual song about Sam that we're going to sing at Regionals." Santana explained.

"Wait, you're still dating Sam? But you told me you were in love with me." I said.

"I honestly don't know what I was thinking." She said and I frowned.

"Well, I wrote you a song. So I hope you like it." I said and she didn't respond.

"Can you stop staring at me? I can't remember my locker combo." She said and Sue appeared behind us.

"Well, well. If it isn't Tweedle-short and Tweedle-Fake-Boobs." Sue says.

"I'm 5'5 and you know, you can't talk to us like that. You're not our cheer coach anymore." I said crossing my arms over my chest.

"I'm not anybody's cheer-leading coach anymore. You betrayed me, and in case you haven't heard, I like to play dirty." Sue said before walking away.
