Rachel's P.O.V
Ohio State University, the home of the Buckeyes, and my dream school. This school has been my dream school since I was like 11 years old or something. I honestly can't think of a time I wasn't dreaming about coming here for college. And now I've finally made it, I'm finally a Buckeye, and I am going to enjoy every minute of it. I still can't believe I got in. I still remember the day I got my acceptance letter, one of the bef my life.
(Flashback to six months ago)
My parents and I sat at the dining room table with my letter sitting in the middle of the table. It had come while I was at school and my parents had waited for me to open it. They wouldn't admit it, but they were worried that I wouldn't get in.
"Someone has to open it baby girl," my dad stated. My mom and I rolled our eyes at him. I quickly grabbed the letter and opened it, confetti falling out as I did so. The look on their face's when I opened that letter that was priceless.
"I GOT IN!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. Both of my parents jumped up and down and celebrated with me. They were so proud and happy for me. They knew how bad I wanted to go to OSU. It was their Alma Mater. It was where they met.
(End Flashback)
Now I'm here waiting in my car outside the main building, waiting for my best friend, Santana. Life couldn't get any better, the sun is shining, the birds are singing. This could possibly be the best day of my life.
That was until some blonde bimbo comes out of nowhere, spilling her coffee all over me while I was in the process of getting my bags out of the back.
"Hey, watch it! Are you some kind of idiot or something?!" I shout at the girl who is still on the floor, empty coffee cup in hand.
"I am... so sorry... the sun was... umm... in my eyes... I didn't see you... I'm so sorry." she quickly started apologizing as she picked herself up off the ground.
"Yeah, well, watch where you're going next time." I say as I start walking away.
"Stupid blonde bimbo." I grumbled out as I tried to wipe the coffee off my shirt. As I look up to throw away a napkin I found in my car I see Santana pulling up in her car. She parked and got out of her car before she started laughing as she pointed at my shirt.
"I think you should stop wearing white shirts… at least as long as you're gonna drink coffee and throw all over yourself." Santana teased.
"Haha, oh my god that's very funny. It's not my fault some blonde bimbo ran into me." I grumbled as I tried to cover up the stain with my arms.
"So much for a first impression" She jokes, I roll my eyes in response. I don't need to make a good first impression with someone I probably won't ever see again. OSU is a huge campus and I doubt she's going to be in any of my classes. From the quick glance I got, she didn't look like she's smart enough to be a med student.
I must have been thinking about that for a while because I heard Santana squeal. I instantly looked up and noticed that San had gotten all of her bags out of the car and some guy had walked up and grabbed her from behind. I was about to react until I realized that it was Puck, Santana's older brother. After they hugged and said their hellos, he half turned to me.
"Hey Rachie." Puck cooed at me. For as long as I could remember we have always liked to tease one another. Puck is like the older brother I never had.
"Shut up, jerk face." I retort as I playfully punch him in the arm.
"Nice top, I didn't know that coffee stains were in this season." He teases me while gently pushing my shoulder. I roll my eyes.
"Why don't you shut up, ass-face. Let's just get to our rooms, so that I can get this shirt off and shower. Okay?" I say before grabbing my bags off the ground.
I ditched Santana and Puck, so I could go and get changed. I was pissed that Santana and I weren't going to be sharing a room, but we had decided that we were only staying in the dorms for one year. Then we are going to get an apartment together and live off campus. I finally found my room after several minutes of searching and I walked into my room. Immediately I could see that my roommate had already moved in and I could hear the shower running, so it didn't take a genius to figure out where she was. So I started to unpack while I waited for her to get out so I could get in. I heard the shower turn off, I decided to tell her I was here in case she came out naked or something.
"Hey, don't freak out or anything, but I'm your new roommate! My name is Rachel, Rachel Berry! It's nice to meet you!" I shout at the bathroom door. After a few moments my roommate walks out of the bathroom.
"Oh hey, I didn't know you were here yet. I'm Quinn Fabray. It's nice to..." she stops mid-sentence as she walks out of the bathroom. 'Oh shit, that's the idiot who split coffee all over me this morning' I thought to myself.
"Oh hey, it's you. What are the odds, right?" I ask nervously. I didn't get a good look at the last time we ran into each other, but there is no denying that the girl in front of me is drop dead gorgeous. She honestly looks like a modern day Grace Kelly with beautiful hazel eyes.
"Yeah, what are the odds that you were going to get paired with the blonde bimbo who split coffee all over you?" she retorts and she looks absolutely livid at the moment. 'Oh fuck, she must have heard me. Shit, is she part eagle or something.' I think to myself.
"Look, I'm sorry I said that I was just pissed. Why don't we just put that all behind us and start over." I suggest with a small smile.
"How about...No!" she shouts at me. I had to take an involuntary step back at the sudden outburst.
"I said sorry and you just dismissed me before calling me a stupid blonde bimbo. Do you think your better that me or something? Let me guess you're a law student or a med student and you think that I'm just some party girl, that's looking for a good time, and that doesn't have a brain. Someone that can only get by on her looks, well guess again. You are not better than me okay. You are just some stupid rich kid that wants to try and be the next Steven Hawking and take over the world, well what if I want to do that. Huh? Did you ever think about that?" she finally finishes with her little rant. I'm guessing due to the lack of oxygen because damn she has to be winded after that long ass speech.
"Whoa, okay for starters, I don't want to be the next Steven Hawking and if you do then go for it. Secondly, I am sorry I was an ass earlier, sometimes I act like that when I'm nervous and today is move in day and I'm nervous about classes starting and being away from home. And yeah I am a med student, but I don't think I am better than you. Also I have to agree that you're hot, but I'm sure it took a lot more than just that to get into college here. So once again, I'm sorry." I say trying to look into her eyes.
I can see that she is about to reply when Santana comes bursting through the door. Seriously! She couldn't have picked a better time to interrupt me and my extremely hot roommate, who is ten times hotter when she's angry. Even though Santana and I weren't roommates, we lived in the same building, and our rooms were a few doors away from one another. She must have heard my roommate shouting and came to investigate. Santana is super nosey like that.
"What the hell is going on here?" San asks looking back and forth between the two of us.
"Who the hell are you?!" Quinn asks and boy, does she look pissed.
"Who the hell are you?!" San snaps back. She looks just as pissed as Quinn does.
"I'm her roommate! Now who are you and why are you in our room?!" Quinn shouts. I could stand there in complete shock as I watched the two girls get into each other's faces.
"Well, I'm her best friend and I heard someone yelling, so I came to see what was going on!" Santana shouts back, it's starting to get really heated I'm afraid they might end up killing each other.
"Ladies, ladies, don't worry. There's enough of me to go around. Please stop fighting over me." I comment, trying to lighten the mood. They both turn their heads toward me. It was like they had totally forgotten I was even in the room and then they both tell me to shut up at the same time. My mouth immediately snaps shut.
"You know what, I'm out of here." Quinn says as she storms out of the room, making sure to slam the door behind her.
"Well isn't she just a ray of sunshine." San comments as she turns to face me.
"Yeah, I know, tell me about it." I reply as I take a seat on my bed.
"Well...What the hell happened? Why was she screaming at you?" She asks me.
"Nothing it doesn't matter." I say trying to drop the subject. Santana eyes me for a few moments before shaking her head.
"Right, whatever I guess. Anyway did you hear about this party tonight?" San asks.
"San you know I hate parties." I groan to her.
"I know, but I already promised my roommate I would go, and it will be fun this time. Plus I'll be there with you!" She pleads with me. Santana then turns those 'evil and can't be denied puppy dog eyes' on me. I groan and have to take a deep breathe.
"Okay, fine. But if it sucks I'm leaving...Got it?" I reply after a few moments. A huge smile breaks out across her face.
"Okay...okay. But I heard this party is going to be 'off the hook'" She says trying to act all cool.
"Off the hook, really who says that?" I ask before I start laughing at her.
"Everybody." She says, defending herself.
"Whatever. See you later." I say walking her to the door. I pull her into a quick hug before politely shoving her out of the door.
"Okay bye, I better see you tonight." She says before I close and lock the door. I'm just glad that I can finally get these coffee covered clothes off, at last.
By the time I'd finished in the shower and did my hair it was already 3 in the afternoon. The sound of my stomach rumbling reminded me that I hadn't eaten all day. I decided now would be a good time to make a chicken sandwich, as I was making my way out to the cafe I saw Quinn coming back into the room.
"Hey, you're back. Sorry about Santana. She's a bit protective at times; I'm the same with her." I say while trying to look into her eyes.
"Whatever, I couldn't care less what you and your little friend think of me. Just stay on your half of the room and I will stay on mine okay?" she says turning around and walking to her bed.
"Yes ma'am." I reply simply before leaving and going to the cafe to get a sandwich.
After my lunch I came home to find Quinn gone again, which I was quite thankful for. If time machines were real I wish I had one so I could go back and not be a complete ass to her. But what's done is done and now it's time for me to get ready for this stupid party that I am being dragged to. After I picked out my outfit which consisted of a pair of black ripped skinny jeans, a white top and a red and black checked shirt, I made my way over to the door. I still can't believe that I'm going to this stupid party with San. I was about to lock the door when I received a text from Santana telling me that she would meet me at the party. Great now I have to find my own way to the party. I can already tell that this is going to be a great night...not!
By the time I got to the party it was in full swing. I had to battle my way through a shit ton of sweaty drunk teenagers, which made me extremely uncomfortable. I spent the next 10 minutes trying to get to Santana who had shouted 'Hey' to me as soon as I made it through the door. I was a little confused when I got to her and seen a beer in her hand.
"Since when do you drink beer?" I asked curiously. I thought she hated beer, I mean I tolerate it on a good day, San is more of a vodka woman.
"I don't." she replies looking at me weirdly. I begin to look around and I can feel my stomach start to churn and my palms start to get sweaty; I need to get out of here now before I explode. I'm not comfortable in crowded rooms like this one.
"Look..." I begin to say, but I'm cut off by Puck bumping into me.
"Well if it isn't my two favorite people; San and Rachie!" Puck yells over the loud music.
"Do I not count as one of your favorite people," Mercedes Jones, Puck's girlfriend, retorts with a pout. Puck rolled his eyes before wrapping his arm around his girlfriend's waist and pulling her in for a kiss. I roll my eyes at the display; they've been together for a while and I was used to seeing their public displays of affection.
I can see Santana's mouth moving but I can't hear any of the words that are coming out, I mean yeah it's really loud in here but it's not that loud, I just don't think my brain can function at parties. Out of the corner of my eye I can see Quinn dancing with a bunch of wee lad's. That's when I feel Santana moving away from me and following her brother out to the back. She looks to me, gesturing for me to follow her as well. I quickly make my way over and follow them.
We made our way out to the back yard, where it seems to be a bit quieter, and there are less people around. We all manage to find seats at a picnic bench and sit down. Puck and Mercedes are on one side and Santana and I on the other.
"Now guys, let's get serious. There are some people I want you to stay away from, especially at parties" Puck says with serious expression on his face. I didn't even know he could be that serious.
"Why?" San asked.
"They're just not the best company to have around." Puck answers bluntly.
"Basically, they do drugs and other illegal shit. If you don't want to be kicked out of school or arrested then I'd stay away from them." Mercedes says. Her facial expression and demeanor is identical to Puck's.
"So who are they then?" I ask. I'm starting to get a little bit panicky at this point. I had no idea OSU was like this.
"Well let's see there's; Brody, Sam, and Rory."
"Are we supposed to magically know what they look like?" I ask as my voice slightly rose in volume.
"Well they form this wee group of theirs, they are actually standing over there" Mercedes says while pointing to the direction they were standing. I didn't like the look of them; they looked like they were up to no good. That's when I notice that Santana is drooling over some chick with blonde hair.
"Who's she?" Santana asks not taking her eyes off the beautiful blonde in front of her.
"The girl you're staring at is Brittany Pierce, Sam Pierce's younger sister. She's a freshman like you guys." Puck replies as he eyes his little sister. Santana tenses and starts to blush, before turning her head around to face Puck.
"But beware; her brother has a history of taking and selling drugs!" Puck warns us.
"I'm definitely staying away from them and so are you" I say giving my San 'just do as I say' look.
"Right" she says looking away from all of us.
We all sit in silence for a while, that's when we hear someone screaming and of course Santana has to go and check it out. I can't believe she left me she told me she wouldn't do that. I have to get out of here.
Santana's P.O.V
I heard a loud scream and was instantly in motion. As I ran into the kitchen I saw my roommate, Tina, lying on the floor, her boyfriend, Mike, kneeling next to her with a worried expression on his face.
"Oh my god, what happened?!" I ask as I drop down next to them.
"I don't know, honestly, she just collapsed. Could you get a cold wet cloth for me?" Mike asks me.
"Yeah, of course" I reply as I quickly stand up and make my way over to the sink at the back of the kitchen. I turn on the cold water and began looking around for a rag to lose.
"Where the fuck, are the freaking rags?!" I grumble out.
"Are you looking for this?" I hear a sweet and quiet voice whisper in my ear from behind. Before I could turn around a pale hand reaches around me holding a neatly folded rag. I stood completely frozen and slightly confused. I have no idea who is standing behind me right now. The mystery voice placed the cloth in my hands before running both of our hands under the cold running water. She moved the towel that is sitting between our hands around to get all sides of the towel wet. I had to close my eyes and take a deep breathe to regain control of myself.
"Thanks." I finally managed to say. I squeezed the cloth to get all the excess water out while she turned the tap off.
I turned around and instantly started drowning the bluest eyes I've ever seen. Then I realized who those beautiful baby blue eyes belonged to, Brittany. This is the same Brittany that my brother warned me to stay away from.
'Shit, shit, shit. I can't be seen near her, but she's so beautiful. Her eyes are such a beautiful baby blue color and yeah she reeks of smoke, but she is still perfect in my eyes. How could a human being look so perfect? She has to be least a six inches or so taller than me.' I think to myself.
As I look up I notice that she's still looking at me, but with a crooked smile that makes me almost forget why I was standing in front of the sink in the first. .
"Hmm... I gotta take this to my friend," I somehow manage to get out, as I continue to lose myself in her eyes. Who wouldn't get lost in those beautiful blue eyes?
"Oh right... yeah... I hope we bump into each other again sometime." she says while moving back slightly, giving me just enough room to get past. I have to fight the gasp that threatens to spill from my lips as our skin lightly touches as I pass by.
"I guess we'll just have to wait and see" I say looking away from her eyes and walking over to Tina. She has finally woken up, but is feeling too weak to get up. I place the wet cloth onto her forehead while Mike leans down to pick her up.
"I'm sorry that I've ruined your night, well part of it anyway. How about you just give me your keys to the dorm room and go back to enjoying the party?" he says as he finally gets her into his arms.
"Oh... why don't I just come with you? I can make sure she gets to bed and keep an eye on her throughout the night?" I suggest. Mike looks at me with a questioning look on his face. Probably wondering if I'm serious about ditching a party early to go and take care of someone I met that day. He must see something in my eyes, because the next thing I know he's accepting my help.
"Yeah, that would be great and thank you by the way. Do you mind driving?" he asks, although it didn't really sound like a question to me.
"No, I don't mind at all. Come on, let's just go." I say moving out of the way so that Mike can go first. At that moment someone tapped my shoulder and called my name, I was forced to turn around.
"Hey San, are you leaving? Let me drive you home!" Puck offers.
"No! It's fine. I'm not a little kid anymore! Besides you have Mercedes to take are of!" I remind him. I look behind him before looking around the room. I noticed that Rachel wasn't here. 'Shit, I completely forgot about her and parties' I think to myself.
"Where's Rachel?" I ask Puck and Mercedes.
"She went off" he said, looking at me disappointingly.
"Oh, I'll text her when I get home. I'm sure she's fine." I say and he nods in agreement.
"Right, well, I'll just see you tomorrow" He says. I give him and Mercedes a quick hug before getting into the car.
Rachel's P.O.V
I was walking so fast I didn't really care who I bumped into. That was until I felt a drink spill all over me and the other person.
"Oh shit, I am so sorry." I say before looking up to see Quinn smiling down at me. Wow she looks really good tonight...no Rachel! She's your roommate!
"Oh, how the tables have turned. It was only a few hours ago when you were looking down at Me." she said smirking at me, before offering me her hand which I happily take. I let her pull me up to my feet.
"Thanks and I really am sorry about this morning and right now." I said after letting go of her hand.
"So where's your wee pit bull?" she asks.
"Are you talking about Santana?" I ask.
"Yeah, where is she anyway?" she asks.
"Taking care of something, I was just about to head home. Are you going to be late tonight?" I ask and she raises her eye brow at me.
"Why? You worried 'bout me?" she whispers to me.
"Hell no, I just would like to have a good night's sleep without you waking me up when you stumble into the room at some ungodly hour." I hiss back at her. She smirks at me and I can't help but think is so sexy.
"I'm hoping that I won't be going home tonight, if you know what I mean." she says while winking at me. I almost choke on my on spit at the comment. I can't tell if she's joking, teasing me, or being serious.
"Oh... okay... well... have fun with that, I'm just gonna go now. See ya whenever...I guess." I manage to say before almost running back to the dorms.
