This chapter contains swearing so just a warning, if you are going to be offended, don't read it.

I do not own the characters, just the ideas surrounding them.

Chapter 1: Quinn's POV

I really don't understand how she does it, I mean she's like two feet tall, she must get major neck ache when she does... well anything with Finnocence, and even the thought alone makes me feel nauseous. Maybe she wouldn't look as out of place if she was with someone closer to her size, not the same of course, it's rare enough finding one fun-sized person without trying to find a matching pair. No she should at least-

"Quit with the leering Q, don't want Finncompetent to get the wrong idea... Or the right one?" I really don't know what annoys me more about Santana, the fact she seems to notice pretty much everything - even if slightly out of context- or the fact that she'll voice it with that self-satisfied smirk plastered all over her face.

"Shut it, S!"

She quirks her finely shaped eyebrow, daring me to throw the first punch. Ever since Brittany started dating Artie, it's been like this pretty much every day.

"Strike a nerve? I should have known it was only a matter of time until you got rid of some of the baby fat and jumped back on the train wreck that is Frankenstein's love life."

"Oh yeah, like I'd ever be desperate enough to go back to that, anyway Berry seems to have got her manhands on him..." I cringe at using the name I've become a custom to referring to her as, and for some reason I feel strange for saying it maybe... guilty?

I think I'll definitely push that feeling down and out of the way... Far away...

The Latina's smirk falters slightly as she, once again, fails to get a rise out of me, but the look in her eye makes me think I won't be getting away that easily.

"So if you weren't acting all 'woe is me' over Finn..." She turns her body fully towards me and leans back on her heels slightly, a stance that would have anyone else running for the hills before finishing her sentence "...Then you must have been leering at Ru-Paul over there."

Okay now I'm pissed, and I'm pretty sure she knows it because before I know it she's inches from my face daring me through squinted eye with a shit-eating grin which I can only just about make out from the close proximity.

"What have we here Q? Craving diva midget's carpet?"

I feel the blush emerge onto my cheeks, but, I mean it's only from Santana's crassness... Right? Anyway the Latina is really starting to push my buttons right now.

"Just because you play for that team, Lopez, it does not mean that everybody else does as well!" I could feel my voice slowly get louder as the sentence progressed and I couldn't help but notice a few heads within close proximity begin to turn at the now heated conversation.

"I didn't say that everyone did, just you! And by the way you've been staring at Berry the last few days I'm surprised I'm the only one who's noticed!" It was true since last week when Finn and Rachel got back together I've hardly seen her away from him and I cannot help but watch her with him, she seems so.. Forced? But I'm only watching because as head cheerleader I am expected to know everything that is going on within my school.

"You know what, you wanted a reaction from me, you've got one, now back the FUCK off before I do something I regret, or don't regret as the case may be!" I'd finally snapped and at that a small crowd had formed, including the short brunette in question... and her love-sick puppy.

"Oh please, Ima go all Lima Height Adjacent on you!" following this I manage to firmly slam her into the lockers on the opposite side of the school corridor.

This triggered the ever growing crowd of people around us begin chanting 'Fight!' over and over. With that Santana Is lunging at me, practically foaming from the mouth at the fact that I made the first hit such a painful one. She grabs a fist-full of hair and yanks it back with such force i can't help but scream from the pain.

There it is only a short amount of time of clawing, scratching and the occasional biting until we hear a familiar voice pleading us to stop fighting which we are only just able to make out over the chanting to persuade us otherwise; but it's Brittany's strong arms around Santana's waist which calms the Latina. The taller blonde cheerleader helps Santana off me before I hear her yelling at Brittany to 'Get off' and to 'stay the fuck away' from her.

After a moments silence, I only then realize that there are a pair of small hands gripping to my forearms from behind holding me back, and I can't help but notice how soft the hands are even in their current death grip.

As the grip loosens I turn around, one of the hands finally releases their hold, only to find a short brunette looking up at me wide-eyed and tight lipped as if scared to say anything.

I can't help but stare back, within the rapidly emptying corridor the silence was deafening.

"Err...I'm sorry about, um, well, that... but thanks for you know..." I mentally face palm for seeming so weak before realising that I'm not meant to be talking to this girl, I mean she's a dork, and I'm, well... I'm Quinn Fabray, and this shit should just not happen.

With that I silently tear my arm from her hand and sprint down the now empty hallway to the nearest bathroom, locking the door behind me and leaning onto the counter, hands either side of a sink and staring at my reflection intently as if it's going to explain to me what the fuck just happened out there with Rachel Fucking Barbra Berry and why I turn into such a mess when she looks at me.
