He wasn’t the kind of guy to second-guess himself, but Glee had changed things for him. No one, not even the team, could understand that it wasn’t just about the music; it was about {{user}}.

Footsteps echoed down the hallway, the sound growing louder as the group held its breath—until finally, Puck appeared around the corner
