Reviews would be nice but I won't beg for them. Oh and thanks for taking the time to read this :)
Quinn Fabray, Santana Lopez, and Brittany Pierce walked in to the choir room with excitement radiating off of them.
The reason? Tomorrow they were leaving with Full Scholarships to The New York Cheeleading Academy.
Sounds amazing right? Well it is. For those three cheerleaders at least. Not so much for one Rachel Berry, the girlfriend of, yep you guessed it,head cheerleader, Quinn let me back up to when the girls got the news.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~3 WEEKS AGO~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"SLOPPY LADIES, JUST SLOPPY. HIT THE SHOWERS. YOU MAKE ME SICK JUST LOOKING AT YOU...BLONDIE,JUGS,AND CLUELESS MY OFFICE...NOW!"Sue yelled into her megaphone as if she was about to bust the vain in her neck.
The trio hurried into their coach's office wondering what they had done this time.
"Ladies it seems as though you've had some scouts looking at you from some cheerleading school in New York."Sylvester started off."Apparently they think you have 'real talent', I have no idea why, but they are offering you a full ride if you come to their high first I said why in the hell would I trade my three top dogs for nothing in return." by this point the girls facial expressions have ranged for worried to surprised to infuriated, Sue puts up her hands as if she were surrendering then continued"then they told me that they would donate one million dollars to my cheerios fund if I insured that you would be I contacted your parents and your all going to New York. Congats exit my domain."
"Wait..." Santana exclaims, "..When do we leave?" She asks with Quinn and Brittany wondering the same thing.
"You got three weeks...and I thought I told you to leave my office...NOW."And with that the girls scurry away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~BACK TO PRESENT TIME~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rachel's POV
Three weeks. It's been three weeks since I first felt my heart starting to crack. When she told me that she was leaving to go to this amazing school in New York I faked excitement and encouraged her to go. Stupid right? I guess so because now I'm sitting in this choir room wanting to just go home and cry my heart out,maybe that would make the fact that it's breaking a little more bearable.
When I finally tune into 's excessive talking he's asking us if anyone has any goodbye songs to sing to Santana, Brittany, and Qui...Quinn. A few people get up there and sing but I remain seated even though everyone keeps looking at me expecting me to sing. I can't. I can't because I know that if I do that I won't even get to the middle of a song without breaking down again for what seems like the thousandth time this week.
Soon but not soon enough lets us go and everyone starts filing out. Quinn and I stay behind like we have done everyday since she got the news.
"You know I'm gonna miss you right." She says to me as I wipe away some stray tears that won't seem to stop escaping.
"yeah I know. I'm gonna miss you too babe." My voice cracks at the term of endearment.
"Awhh come here love" she whispers pulling me close and for the next hour I stand there and cry in this warm embrace I'll always love.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~THE NEXT DAY~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quinn's POV
After saying goodbye to my family me Santana and Britt head out to the airport for our flight. I'm glad to be getting out of Lima but I'm not so glad to be leaving the love of my life behind, Especially now when I can tell her heart is breaking.
The glee club promised that they would meet up at the airport to say their finally goodbyes before we take off. I'm worried that Rachel might not even show. She's really heart broken over this, but there's isn't much I can do. I don't want to leave her but this chance might not ever come again.
As we pull up to the airport we see the glee club, our glee club slowly file out of the bus that brought them here. I look and look but I don't see my little brunette anywhere.
"She'll be here"Brittany says to me noticing my torrid look.
As we say our goodbye I still don't see a sign of Rach until a familiar red bug pulls up and she hops out with a guitar case in hand. She runs over to me and leaps in my arms and I don't want her anywhere else.
"I'm so sorry I'm late I...I just didn't think I could handle saying goodbye again, but I knew if I didn't I would be hurting you so...here I am." She explains.
"Here you are." I say to her.
She wipes away her tears and tells me that she has to leave me with a song because she wouldn't be Rachel Berry if she didn't .
She pulls out her guitar and as she starts to play a crowd starts to gather but she's only looking at me and I at soon as the gets into the intro I know right of the bat what song she was playing.
The Only Exception
It's our song. The song that played when we were outside listening to the radio under the night I first kissed her. It's OUR song.
By the time she's done singing she has half of the airport in tears and the others damn near it. When she strums the last notes I pull her up into a kiss that we have never experienced before. A kiss that said I will always love you no matter how far away you are.
" I love you so much Quinn. So much that I want you to have this. She takes her necklace off .the gold star necklace that she never takes off and she tells me that whenever I have this one that she is with me.
"LAST FLIGHT TO NEW YORK BOARDING NOW..."
And that was my sign to go. With one more whispered goodbye I boarded the plane to my new life and left the old one behind.
Rachel's POV
Broken. that is the only word to describe how a felt the second she turned around and walked toward that plane. I'm crying now and I hear people telling me that it's gonna be alright, but I don't fell their sympathy. I just feel...Broken.
