There's A Girl
Chapter 1
AN- This is my first fan fic! Its un-beta's since I really just wanted to get this out there.
Reviews are so very welcome.
Disclaimer- I, sadly, don't own Glee. Rights go to Fox. And I, again sadly, don't make any money off this.
"There's a girl, who's close to me, closer than you like to think"
Rachel was so engrossed in the sheet music arranged carefully on her desk, that she didn't notice her phone go off until the screen read three text messages and two missed calls. Picking it up hastily, she scrolled through the calls. One read Finn Hudson, the other, Quinn Fabray. The three text messages were from her Daddy, asking if she had made it home safely.
Replying with a concise, yes, thank you, she called back Quinn, being happy to have any reason to talk to the blonde.
With each ring her courage faltered even more. Her nerves grew more anxious as she recalled the butterflies in her stomach she felt every time the intoxicating blonde was near her. They returned.
Ring. What could she possibly want?
Ring. Was it about Glee?
Ring. Was she going to-
"Hello?"
Silence.
"Rachel?"
Rachel wasn't one to let something as trivial as nerves get the best of her. Clearing her throat, she answered.
"Yeah, I was just returning your call. Whats going on?"
The two had become... well.. friends. The word still sounded strange to hear ears, and didn't exactly roll off her tongue with ease . They had bonded firstly over Quinns current situation, where Rachel tried to be a support, but mostly over sectionals.
They had been seated next to each other on the bus ride, since everyone else was paired. Mercedes Kurt, Artie-Tina, Brittany-Santana, Mr. Shcue- Mrs. Pillsbury, and most surprisingly, Puck-Finn. They had become oddly close lately, but no one really took notice except for Rachel. She shrugged it off.
"I was just wondering if you could help me on a certain number for Glee. I wanted to impress everyone, so they see that I'm not just some pregnant ex-cheerleader."
Truth is, Quinn knew that no one at Glee needed her to impress them. They had all accepted her with open arms. She just, for some reason, ever since "Keep Holding On" she had felt the need to find a way to be close the Rachel Berry.
"No one thinks of you as only that. Your also a member of Glee and an ex-tormentor of us all." Quinn smiled.
"Well, either way, could you help me out?"
"Of course. The choir room say after school tomorrow?"
"Well actually... I was thinking more like my house. I figure after a long day at school, it would be nice to relax and my parents won't be home, so they wouldn't be breathing down our necks and all..."
Rachel couldn't help but smile, blushing like crazy.
Sure, her and Quinn were on joking terms, but she didn't think they were friends outside of Glee. Much less outside of school. The only way this conversation was taking place was that Quinn needed her help with something Glee related. In fact, the only reason they had each others numbers was that everyone had switched during one practice when no one could reach Brittany or Santana. Quinn was at a sonogram and no one else in Glee would ever have had the cheerleaders numbers.
Lost in her own world, she forgot that what Quinn asked her was basically a question, and the blonde would be waiting for a response.
"Rachel?"
Quickly regaining her composure, the butterflies resting a little, she replied. "Um... yeah, sorry. Sure Id love to come, just give me a time."
Quinn herself sighed a breath of relief on the other side, that her proposal had gone over well. She feared that Rachel might say something like "What? Now you want to invite me over and be all friendly? No way! Not after what you did to me!" After all, she definitely had the right to say all that and more.
"Just meet me in the school parking lot and I'll drive you to my house."
"Alright"
"Bye"
"Yeah...bye"
Rachel just stared at her phone. This could not be real. Quinn Fabray was inviting Rachel Berry over. (Rachel tried not to focus on the fact that it was simply for help on a song to improve Quinns own image)
She knew she should probably call Finn back as well, but she didn't want to complicate the moment with the bumbling jock.
This whole thing was inspired by the song "There's A Girl" by The Ditty Boops.
Review please! Feedback on this will decide whether I continue with this story or not.
