A/N: My first uploaded story. I wasn't planning on continuing this storyline, but if you're interested in me doing so, tell me in reviews.
Quinn concentrated on the tapping of her pen drumming on the homework in front of her as oppose to listening to the babbling Rachel Berry beside her. She'd agreed to stay behind at school to finish the algebra assignment with the petite brunette simply because she had nothing else to do. Lately she had just been spending her days aimlessly wandering around the Lima park after if she ended up going to school at all. "Quinn? …Quinn?" Rachel piped, noticing she was't all there when looking at the blonde's eyes. She witnessed how those empty eyes suddenly lit up like she's never seen them do since…well,since the incident.
Quinn's lips started turning into a smile when she heard faint music notes drifting down the hall. She knew that voice. And as always, that voice pulled Quinn to it, pulling her off the seat as she rushed towards the sounds,leaving a more than confused Rachel behind.
For you there'll be no crying
For you the sun will be shining
Her blonde hair moved whimsically behind her as her pace quickened at the lyrics, a wide smile now on her face.
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you
It's all right I know it's right
By now Quinn was almost running toward the end of the hall. Her heart racing as she felt all the pain of the last month melt away with each word of the song.
And the songbirds keep singing
Like they know the score
She didn't notice the few kids still left in the halls, nor the strange looks she got from everyone she passed, all that mattered to Quinn was getting to that voice. That voice that brought back all the worst and best memories of her life. The girl yanked open the auditorium and her world crashed down.
There she was, beautiful and magnificent as ever, singing the song the two had previously sung to eachother in the car. Santana Lopez. Her voice boomed through the room as she reached the chorus and Quinn moved closer, taking in Santana's features like it was the first time she saw her. When just inches away from the latina, Quinn reached her arm out to touch that all too familiar skin.
But she was gone. Panic rose inside Quinn as she spun around, franticly looking for the girl who was just a second ago right in front of her. No no no. Quinn's mind was in hysterics, she couldn't lose Santana. Not again.
Rachel burst through the doors but Quinn couldn't even care enough to look up as hopelessness set in. She's gone. I let go of her again was all that was going though her mind as a small comforting hand was placed on her back. "Quinn" Rachel said softly, hating seeing the heartbroken girl like this. "She was here" Quinn's voice cracked in mid sentence "she was just in front of me". Rachel's heart broke along with Quinn's as she shook her head at the other girl "Quinn, you have to let her go. Santana is dead, she's not coming back".
