Reach (Will gen)
Title: Reach
Fandom: Glee
Length: 227 words
Prompt: n/a
Pairing: Will gen
Other: n/a
Excerpt: Mr. Schuester really believes that they are good kids.
Mr. Schuester really believes that they are good kids.
Quinn is pregnant, and Puck is always in trouble for fighting. Rachel is a drama queen and Finn tries too hard. Kurt is terrible at staying in the closet, Mercedes relies on the person she thinks she should be, and Tina won't talk. And there's the rest of them, with their own little faults and problems.
But they are good kids, and he believes that with the conviction of someone who has no children of his own. The strange thing about it is, when he believes in them, they want to believe in themselves. And it is that attitude that will take them to Nationals.
No one wants to disappoint Mr. Schuester. The girls fear Sue and the boys listen to Mr. Tanaka, but they all actually like Mr. Schuester, even if he is wide-eyed and idealistic and has no idea, half the time, of what's going on.
Maybe he'll figure it out when Mrs. Schuester gives birth-- that kids are people, really, and that the idea of high school that he has is totally different from reality. But the Glee Club hopes that he doesn't.
They need his belief to succeed. They can lean on him. And that makes him the best teacher they have-- maybe not in Spanish, but for dreams.
They all keep reaching.
