-The 다음 Day-
I went over to 표, 테이블 where all the 글리 club girls were. They were talking about Sam and Mercedes' summer fling. Then, Mercedes started 노래 "Summer Nights" 의해 Grease with all the girls, including me, 노래 back-up.

-in 글리 club-
Mr. Schue was 글쓰기 something on the white board , while everyone was trying to read it.

"Marry me", I read.

"What's going on, Mr. Schue", Mercedes asked.

"I'm going to propose to Ms. Pillsbury." Everyone applauded.

"That's wonderful, Mr. Schue", I said.

"Yeah, and we think 당신 won't mess up this time", said Quinn.

Mr. Schue smiled, but didn't laugh. "Anyway, the assignment is to work with a partner on a duet piece for my proposal to Ms. Pillsbury." Everyone cheered.

I beamed. I looked at Artie and couldn't wait to ask him to be my partner.

-at my locker-
This is it. I walked out of 글리 club, determined to ask Artie to be my boyfriend. Er, partner. Which ever one came first. But then I saw Artie talking to a cheerleader.

"Hi Artie, want to go out", I heard her say.

"Go out where", Artie had said.

"On a-"

I ran up to them. "Hey Artie." I looked the cheerleader up and down. "Who's your friend?"

"Hey Sol. This is Becky."

"Hi." Becky smiled at me.

I didn't smile back. "Hi." The 벨 rung. "C'mon Artie, class time."

"You go, I'll catch up."

I looked from Artie, to Becky, then back to Artie. "Okay." I turned away and walked down the hallway.Something's off about that Becky girl. I looked back at her.Yep, she has down syndrome just like my cousin. But even she isn't getting in my way of asking Artie out.

-next period-
I saw Artie talking to Finn.And no Becky in sight. Time to make my move. I was just to about to talk to Artie, when Becky came in between us.Damn she's fast.

"Hi Artie, I can't wait for our date."

"Me either, Becky."

She ran off.

I looked to make sure she was gone. She was. "Hey again, Artie."

He smiled. "Hey."

"I was wondering if you'd like to be my partner for Mr. Schue's assignment?"

"I'm already working with Mike."

Dammit Mike! "Oh."

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay." It actually wasn't. "I'll just work with someone else." I turned and walked away.

-in the hallway-
I decided to ask Sam if he would work with me.

"Sure Sol."

I smiled. "Awesome. Have any ideas?"

"Not yet. But when-", Sam was interrupted on account of being slushied 의해 the hockey team.

"Synchronized", said the two hockey jerks that slushied Sam. Then they high-fived and walked away.

"You okay?"

He was smiling, but looked over my shoulder. Looking at Mercedes. "I will be."

"Oh, I get it. Bye." I walked down the hallway.

-back at 글리 club-
Artie entered the room. I was sitting 의해 Tina.

"Artie, it's time for a Becky intervention", Tina said.

Artie had a puzzled look on his face. "What are 당신 talking?"

"Did 당신 go to to BreadstiX with Becky", Berry asked.

"Yeah. We had a great time. She's nice, sweet, and funny."

"No she's not", said Santana. "I was 프렌즈 with that girl, she's one sly, conniving bitch."

"Artie, we think 당신 should stop hanging around with Becky", said Finn.

"Why? Because she understands me? 당신 know 당신 guys make a lot of fuss about being different from everyone else, but you're all hypocrites." Artie then wheeled out of the room.

-Next Period-
I couldn't help but eavesdrop on Artie and Becky's conversation. I was standing behind the corner.

I heard Becky say, "Hey hottie, my house Friday night. 당신 and I are gonna do it."

Excuse me?

"I'm sorry", I heard Artie say.

"I sent 당신 a picture office what you'll be seeing Friday night." I heard her footsteps and knew she was gone.

I came from my hiding place and stood in front of Artie. I saw him looking at his phone.

"Oh my..." He put his phone away.

"What's wrong?" Though I knew the answer.

"I've to go talk to Coach Sue." He wheeled off, his face red.

-back in 글리 Club-
Berry was 노래 "Without You" 의해 Usher. Once she finished, everyone applauded. Finn went up to her and kissed her.

"Good job, Berry." I smiled at her. She smiled back.

"I agree", said Santana. "You really nailed the assignment. Oh wait, the assignment wasn't to make it all about Rachel Berry and make everyone watch, was it Mr. Schue?"

"Enough, Santana." Mr. Schue smiled at Berry. "Great job, Rachel."

Berry and Finn sat down.

"Okay, Mr. Schue", said Artie. "It's the end of the week. Which song are 당신 going to do?"

Mr. Schue thought. "I'm still not sure."

I looked to Sam, who was already looking at me with a smile. I returned the smile. "Mr. Schue, Sam and I have an idea."

-at the school's pool-
Sam and I gathered all the 글리 club members in order to perform "We Found Love" 의해 리한나 for Mr. Schue's proposal to Mrs. Pillsbury.
