Rachel watched in confusion as the 'Unholy Trinity' took their spots in front of the glee club to perform their song. Ever since she accidentally learned of their secrets. She had been avoiding them like the plague. She knew what they were. Accepting it was the hard part. Yes, she had recently become friends with them after they all quit the cheerios for some unknown reason and they were really friendly...maybe even a little to friendly. But she just did not know how to come to terms with them. She furrowed her brow as the first notes of the song played and Quinn started singing. Her eyebrows slightly raised as she realized this was The "Unholy Trinity's' way of reaching out to her while addressing the problem.

Truth of the matter is I'm complicated
You're as straight as they come
You go 'bout your day baby
While I hide from the sun

It's better if you don't understand
Cause you won't know what it's like
Until you try

Quinn stared into Rachel's eyes the entire time she sang before she stopped her gaze to look at Santana as they harmonized for the chorus.

You know I, I'll be waiting on the other side
And you, all you gotta do is cross the line
I could wait a whole lifetime
But you just gotta decide
You know I
I'll be waiting on the other, waiting on the other side

Brittany moved next to the girls and pleaded with her eyes looking at Rachel as she started to sing her part.

We would live forever
Who could ask for more
You could die if you wanted
But baby what for

It's better if you don't understand
And you won't know what it's like
Until you try

All three girls harmonized for the chorus again until Santana stepped up to rap her part.

If they say life's a dream
Call this insomnia
Cause this ain't Wonderland
It damn sure ain't Narnia
And once you cross the line
You can't change your mind
Yeah I'm a monster
But I'm no Frankenstein
And quite frankly
I've been feeling insane in between my eyes
I really can't explain what I feel inside
If you knew what I was you's would run and hide
Many have tried to go into the night
Cross over the line and come back alive
But that's the price we payin' when we living on the other side

The emotion flowing from the three girls seemed to heighten as they sang the chorus again. Before they stepped side by side and held hands in a chain to sing the last lines.

It's better if you don't understand
It's better if you don't understand
It's better if you don't understand
It's better if you don't understand
It's better if you don't understand
It's better if you don't understand

When the three girls finished every stood up and started clapping and cheering. The three girls didn't seem to notice though as they were all focused on the only girl sitting down with her eyes burning holes in the floor with tears blurring her vision.

"Great job girls! I think we just heard our front runner for sectionals!" Mr. Schu said with a grin on his face as he ushered the girls to their seats. When the three girls finally sat down on the top row, Rachel looked up at the whiteboard. She could feel the piercing gaze of all three girls on her as she blinked repeatedly to stop the tears from falling. She couldn't even pay attention to what Schu was talking about. all she knew was the bell was about to ring. When the bell finally rang she grabbed her bag and ran as fast as her feet would carry her to her car before throwing her stuff inside and flooring it out of the parking lot and to her house.

She reached home and ran inside, running up the stairs before locking her door and collapsing on her bed in a mess of tears and confused thoughts.

A little while later she hear the light sound of footsteps coming up her steps before they stopped. She understood it meant the girls her in the hallway hoping she would talk to them, its not the first night they've come in. Ever since they realized the berry men weren't living there they made sure to be near Rachel every night. They stopped coming inside of the house when Rachel found out their secret but she's seen them in her backyard, sleeping on her pool chairs, silently guarding the tiny girl in the house. This is the first time they've been in the house since the night the secrets were revealed.

Rachel thought of how much they seemed to care for her, she knew what the distance from her was doing to the 'unholy trinity', she sees the sadness behind their eyes, she feels the exact same way...maybe she needs to give them a chance.

She evened her breathing and silently fixed her hair and clothes before walking to the door and unlocking it, and moving to the farthest corner of the room. She waited a couple of seconds for the girls to understand the silent invitation. She was not disappointed when two seconds later all three girls rushed in, falling over the other to get in her room.

She silently crossed her arms and raised her eyebrow waiting for one of them to speak.

Santana looked at the two blondes next to her before taking a step closer to the girl in the corner, only for Rachel to step back until her back was fully against the wall.

"Rachel, we would never hurt you. We can't...it would...it would hurt us to hurt you more than we already have...we...Rachel we care about you entirely to much to do that...We love you Rachel."

The song 'The Other Side" belongs to Bruno Mars. Idk if this is a story or a one shot. If someone says keep going I will.
