Why This Must Be Read: Wow. For a show that has only aired one ep, the fandom seems to have exploded. I had to watch, simply to see what the fuss was about - and I approve! This author has written several Glee fics over the last few weeks, all of which I'm sure are as awesome as this one I'm reccing. She has the voices down pat. Rachel is the same earnest character she is on-screen, and Finn is adorkable. Lovely fic about their relationship, and the easiness of it.
You think we have a shot?”
“At winning?”
“Yeah.”
She bites her lip, caught between what she wants to say will happen and what she thinks will actually happen. “It’s going to be a lot of work and no one in the school wants this to happen.” She looks up at him, into his eyes, and for a second, it does feel like the movie she wants her life to be, and all she has to do is lean in and kiss him, because she’s the beautiful, young ingénue destined for stardom and he’s the football player with a heart of gold and it’s all so inspirational that everyone will definitely root for them.
She doesn’t kiss him and he doesn’t say anything and they just sit there, looking at each other. He looks away for a second, cracking open his textbook, and she clears her throat. “Did you do the—” he starts.
“Do you need help with the—” she asks.
They talk about secants and radians the rest of the break.
