A fic for 14 Valentines
14 Valentines- Day 2: Athletics
Fandom- Glee
Characters- Sue Sylvester
Summary-She could run faster, jump higher, and hit harder than anyone else in the school
Rating-PG
Champion
Sue Sylvester was a prodigy. She could run faster, jump higher, and hit harder than anyone else in the school. It had always been that way for her, and it always would be, Hermes at her heels and Nike at the finish line. If she didn’t know how to do it then she would learn, fast. Jean, being the clumsier of the two of them, had always loved to watch her compete, calling herself Sue’s biggest fan, which was probably true.
When she had been in school, her athletic prowess was legendary, which as she got older got to be a bit of a problem. For some reason the boys in her gym class didn’t like coming in second place to Sue Sylvester, which was of course preposterous, given her god-like status coming in second was an honor! Maybe if they spent less time whining and more time in the weight room they too could taste victory. She knew as she spoke the words that it would be impossible, but it was more enjoyable to leave them in the dust, and crush their dreams when they were hopeful at the start. Besides it would make for better competition.
The PE teacher had “advised her” to maybe let some one else win every now and then. She called him a misogynist and refused. Three weeks later he was fired for incompetence under a flurry of child abuse allegations and her reign continued unchecked.
In high school, the football coach had said that no girl would be able to survive on his team. Sue and Title IX proved him wrong. The team learned quickly and harshly that failure was not an option under her command. And it was under her command that the football team operated, and no one said a word against it. When she became the first freshman (not the first girl, such a statistic was irrelevant) to lead a team to an undefeated season in the state’s history, Sue Sylvester did not celebrate the unlikely and unprecedented victory into the night and long past the morning with the rest of her team. She perceived it as a mission completed and began plotting playoff dominance. Why should they rest on their laurels when there were still games to be won?
Why should she quit just because she was good? The entire world didn’t know it yet, and that needed to be fixed.
