You Have to Work if You Want to Win [Ryan]

[Adele Clark]

The cherrios practice was over, even if they were off for vacations and even if there didn’t have much faith for the club anymore, Adele was insisting on having the group to practice more and more. God, how did they do to impress people and give the sport teams a good cheer before she was around? She sighed once the routine was over looking at her group of people not impressed by the lack of perseverance they were having. She was hoping that Sue would find a great idea to get their asses back to being motivated. Glaring at a couple of other girls who were obviously failing the easiest dance moves she was asking them to do.

Hopefully this year will be better. For now though, she dismissed the group, and remained there until everyone was gone. She walked around the gym for a few moments, her feet echoing around as she wandered over to the stereo and her eyes wandered over to the CD’s they were having. Well then, if they didn’t want to practice, she might as well do so shouldn’t she? She flipped the few CD’s she had brought, and smiled to herself seeing the one she was looking for. She picked it up and pulled it out of it’s case before placing it in the CD player. She was still dressed in her Cheerleader uniform, and anyways, it was the only thing she was wearing at school she couldn’t deny the fact that she was damned sexy in it.

She pressed on the play button and went further away from the stereo before starting a gymnastic routine, doing back flips and everything that would impress a novice team player. She was a winner; no one could deny that and not even herself. Adele was going to show to everyone in this school that nothing could come across her and her goals to destroy any kind of competition and perhaps the upcoming Glee club considering that they were now their new rivals with Sue’s new idea. She smirked at the thought as she continued to dance, the only thing she wasn’t expecting was that she wasn’t alone in this room as she thought she would be.

[Ryan McKnight]

Ryan had a long day, meeting after meeting. Sue complaining about budgets and how the Ohio as well as the American Education system shouldn't need that much money if all students and teachers were doing were reading from books they could easily just get from an underprivileged home because stupid people keep books, winners keep trophies. Sue went on to explain how Spanish shouldn't be taught and English really isn't needed since its a primary language. Figgins went on in his accent, disagreeing with Sue wholeheartedly and with that she stormed out and ruined the secretaries desk...again. Ryan whistled low and listened on as the meeting went on....forever.

He needed to work out, he needed to relieve stress. It was way too hot in Lima for him to go to his actual gym today so when Coach Beiste offered her Titans weight room, Ryan accepted the offer and smiled gratefully. Ryan grabbed his gym bag and sighed before slipping into the men's bathroom and changing his clothes. Walking out in his basketball shorts and a tight tank top he headed in the direction of the actual gym. Ryan stopped slowly. Was that music he heard coming from the inside of the gym? Slowly he opened the door and peered inside. There was a stereo and a stack of CD's, the stereo blaring music. There was one sole girl, a Cheerio thanks to the uniform giveaway, doing gymnast flips and dance moves. Ryan was actually impressed, no one else on the squad that he had seen a few times before because Sue volunteered him to baby sit them as she went on to try and prove elves lived in William Schuester's hair could pull off these kinds of moves.

Ryan leaned against the bleachers, counting her steps. She was precise but not on point and fluid like Sue liked her Cheerios. Now he saw her face, he knew exactly who she was. Adele Clark. Adele was destined to be the head Cheerio with power that would make Quinn Fabray look like a minor. Adele was actually also very smart beyond the cheerleader stereotype. The girl stopped and she looked at him. Ryan chuckled and smiled as he walked forward, gym bag on his right shoulder, arms folded.


"Pretty solid routine you have going there Ms. Clark" Ryan spoke wit a smirk. His eyes of blue planted to his feet before looking back up at Adele. He knew she hated being called Ms. Clark, he did that to everyone. I'm surprised the rest of the Cheerios aren't here. Or did you send them home?" he asked, a nice distance away from Adele.

[Adele Clark]

Adele had to admit; she was damned proud of the routine she had come out with. Now if only her Cherrios, well, Sue’s Cherrios were more willing to practice as much as she wanted, they would win more than the first place. They were the winners of the school and it was as if they thought they could relax once they had the trophy in hands while it was all the other way around; having a price only meant you were doing good this time but next time, people would try to beat you and outnumber your skills. Every year they needed to improve and show off better skills than what they had done previously…some of her team thought she was paranoid thinking like that and that over working was simply crazy and nuts for someone like them to do. She didn’t call training as over working; it was a hobby to her and if they didn’t see it her way, too bad but they’d struggle in competition and she would never accept that.

She panted a little from the routine she had finished doing and immediately spotted the hot teacher, Ryan. Oh, he was a sex god…well, not really but he was hot meat and the kind of man she wouldn’t hurt at all. Though, there were some limits between old and old. She fancied older men but someone nearing 40’s? She wasn’t so sure about that-even if she would sometimes droll at his class. He was one of the few teachers she urged to make homework and excelled the first shot she gave these. He was mainly her motivation to get up early so she could gaze at him while he’d give them something to read.

She went to grab her water bottle and took a sip of it before returning her attention to him. “How many times will I have to tell you that I don’t like being called Ms. Clark? Makes me feel old.” She replied returning the smirk back at his face. “They aren’t as hard working as I am, I fear they lack of motivation, which is sad. ” She responded with a sigh. “I believe you haven’t come here to watch how awesome I look in my Cherrio outfit?” She joked as her smirk grew wider. She really restrained her words on the teasing part saying ‘awesome’ instead of saying ‘incredibly sexy’.

[Ryan McKnight]

Ryan shrugged and chuckled at Adele's response to being called "Ms. Clark" everyone hated it and he knew he wouldn't be able to get any kind of different response than the usual. "Call it being a gentleman of some sort..,Adele" Ryan spoke, his Nashiville accent blaring through more than the music from the speakers. No matter how long he had been currently living in Ohio or how much time he spent in New York City, his accent didn't seem to fade. Ryan saw his accent like a scar, forever seen and heard for this matter. Messing with his hair, Ryan spoke once more "Besides, its only the proper way to say hello to a student. I guess since there's two more weeks until school, we can pass the formalities. Until classes, I'm Ryan, you're Adele" he smiled nicely.

"Well then the question is...dear Adele is as a leader how is sending them home going to give them the motivation they already lack?" Ryan asked, adjusting the gym bag on his shoulder. His muscles flexed absent-mindedly and he just cleared his throat. He was hoping that Adele would give some sort of reasoning, although he's pretty sure he left her in a zone she might not be able to answer. "Don't you think that you need to motivate them somehow? Granted, you might get fed up with them but you have to show them how to be a leader. That's what head cheerleaders are for right? When the coach doesn't believe or motivate them, the head cheerleader does?" Ryan asked. If her answer was no, then she wasn't really cut out for this kind of leadership.

Ryan shook his head and looked over Adele once, raising an eyebrow and chuckling "Adele I'm sure you think you look amazing in a Cheerio outfit, but that's not my thing. I actually like modest women..." Ryan spoke clearly. He was hoping she could hear the emphasis on 'woman" even though he wouldn't be opposed to saying she was a very gorgeous girl. Adele was a classic beauty with a rebel flare. She'd make any high school guy happy, and just that... high school guys not someone twice her age. "I'm actually on my way to the gym. I gotta keep in shape. Someone will appreciate these babies"" Ryan joked, flexing for real this time and laughing.

[Adele Clark]

Adele smirked at Ryan, for a teacher, she thought he was rather cool. Along with Schue even if Sue seemed to hate the man so much. Of course, Sue was her role model for she knew how to be a winner and that’s exactly what she was. Killing the competition with her skills and her brain wasn’t hard for her to do and she would follow whatever the woman had in mind to stay in head of her Cherrios and at the top of the school’s society. She couldn’t help it; she was a fighter and she had to win these fights. Being at the top brought her the stimulation she needed to survive her lonely days at home where she only had had the company of a maid while she was younger and when she was old enough, she had the company of nothing but a T.V for her parents were always off at work.

It was hard on the moral but Adele would never admit it to anyone, not even under torture. Anyways, it wasn’t the matter for she had a hot looking teacher right in front of her who was willing to have a little chit chat (but that wouldn’t restrain her from flirting). She knew there had some limits but she wanted to see how far she could go until he’d fall into her hands like any guy she had met so far. Forbidden things were so appealing to the young girl she was, and flirting with a teacher that was twice her age was even more thrilling than a suspense. A mischievous glint appeared into her eyes as she smiled sweetly at Ryan. “That works with me, if you call me Ms. Clark during the upcoming semester I will have to call you Sir.” She stated with a chuckle. Oh this was going to be fun~

Adele had to restrain laughter as Ryan questioned her about her leadership. Oh, he didn’t need to worry about something as futile as that; she was going to make them work harder, twice the time they used to last semester; she was only being nice because it was summer. Everyone needed a break an as bitchy as she could be, she was nice enough to allow them half of a day off. “Don’t you worry about my qualities of a leadership, sir.” She mused smiling. “I am being nice for these are our last few days of vacations, I am not a tyrant.”

However, as he commented her on the way she looked, her smile soon turned into a smirk. “Oh, I don’t think I look amazing, I know it.” She joked winking at him playfully before rolling a finger into her hair flirtatiously. So the hot teacher was going to work out? Her smirk never left her lips. “Don’t you need to do some cardio first? You need to activate your body before training these babies of yours; I thought your wise would know so.” If people weren’t used to her vocabulary already, they’d think it’s weird to see a Cherrio to be this…elaborated. She couldn’t help it; she was succeeding in everything and a little rule wasn’t going to stop her from doing so.

[Ryan McKnight]

Ryan shook his head "Oh but where's the fun in that? People call me sir all the time. I don't think it'll bother me as much Adele" Ryan said with a smile. His brown hair was falling into his face, he hated when that happened. Moving the strands of hair from his face he spoke again "You call me Sir would just give more of a reason for me to call you Ms. Clark. So how about we meet somewhere in the middle to keep you happy?" he smiled nicely.

Somehow her answer didn't please him. She was exactly like Sue except in a small skirt and in high school form. Adele thrived off the leadership, something about it all made her happy and that on its own was something Ryan could actually say he didn't like about the girl. "Fair enough I guess. A tyrant was something I didn't accuse you of, but for the sake of this we won't even touch the subject" Ryan spoke tightly. He felt the slight annoyance growing with her cockiness, her need to be the best but he refused to let it get to him at all. She was just a girl, she had a lot of growing up to do. "Guess in a way you're being...kind hearted. Or am I not allowed to call you that either?" Ryan asked.

Ryan chuckled and sighed, looking up at the ceiling as if he were praying to some kind of God for an answer. "Okay Adele. You have proven you do not lack self esteem, thank you for the display" Ryan sarcastically spoke with a slight edge. He was good at masking his annoyance with a joke or two and that's what it was in the form of a joke. "My cardio will be taken care of. There's a treadmill in the weight room Beiste told me. A good twenty minute run on that bad boy and I'll be heart attack free. I'm very wise, I've been doing this working out stuff way before you were even thought of Adele" Ryan joked, laughing and proceeding to walk past Adele slowly.

[Adele Clark]

Adele grinned at Ryan this man was so easy to read it was almost sad. He was in the charmer category of people, obviously. His smile said it all and also the way he acted for she had observed him in class. The real challenge there wasn’t to analyze his psychology but to see if he’d fall in the crime which was kissing her, having some sort of fake affair she could make him believe of so. It was why she had to calculate her moves, make sure she wouldn’t go on his bad side. What could she do, being alone at home got her spoiled and she didn’t deny it. She just didn’t want people to find out, at leas, not for now; she was having fun.

She nodded at his proposition, a middle…it was fair enough. There was one thing she didn’t doubt about and it was his manners; he was indeed a gentleman and he knew where were the limits-for now. A small smirk appeared onto her lips but it soon vanished into another sweet smile. She didn’t want to blow away her cover! “A middle sounds fair enough, Ryan.” She finished. She arched an eyebrow after her little joke-that was one thing she didn’t like about people; they never got her sense of humour- no one ever understood it. She sighed looking up at him. “Forgive the cockiness of my joke, my sense of humour is one of the kind that people barely understand.” An apologize would most likely do the job for now.

“Oh you can call me that if you wish; I am human, even if they need to work hard, people deserve breaks from time to time- I don’t want them to end up having no lives because of over training-which I probably am the only one crazy enough to do so.” She shrugged it off. But maybe a high self-esteem was one of the side effects to be under Sue’s wing; or so, that’s what she assumed. She didn’t argue with him on that, considering the shape he was having; it was plausible. “You seem, indeed, like being someone familiar with training.” She finished. She watched him for a few moments and went to the stereo. “I will follow you, I need to put that back to where it belongs.” It would give her an occasion, in the meanwhile to spend more time with him and observe him some more.
