## Biography

Celina was initially a very shy person who joined Glee Club as a way to open up her shell. Celina usually preferred to be in the back, but because of Finn's guidance, she slowly became more comfortable singing in the forefront.

Celina decided to quit Glee Club during the first season, but she didn't disclose why. After getting information about Celina's home life from Simone, Finn figures out that Celina's boyfriend was abusing her, which made her scared for her life. Celina also mentions how her sister is in prison for distributing drugs. Finn convinces her to stay in Glee Club, and Celina eventually leaves her abusive boyfriend.

Celina stays single until the third season, when she meets Garrett Jones. Garrett is immediately smitten with Celina, but Celina is nervous about pursuing a relationship with him. Eventually, she is convinced by Simone to give Garrett a chance, and Celina ends up in a happy relationship. Garrett and Ceiina eventually break up at the end of Season Four when Garrett gets a chance at a record deal, and Celina feels Garrett is choosing fame over her.

Garrett returns to NYADA during Celina's senior year, and when Celina is excited to pick things back up where they left off, she is surprised and hurt to find out that Garrett started dating Simone over the summer. Celina angrily refuses to talk to Garrett and Simone until Garrett brings out the fact he and Celina have musical chemistry.

Celina continues to deny her feelings for Garrett until she finds out Simone willingly broke up with Garrett so he could be with Celina. Celina overhears that Garrett plans on leaving again, and she's once again hurt. However, Garrett doesn't plan on taking the opportunity so he can stay with Celina. Celina eventually tells Garrett that he has to go chase his dreams and she sends him off with a parting gift.

Garrett is able to convince Celina that he doesn't want the record deal, especially if it means he doesn't get her. Garrett asks Celina to join him professionally, as they have intense musical chemistry. In the end, Celina agrees to be apart of Garrett's success, and the two form a successful country duo named *Garrett & Celina*.
