So in this story Rachel ad Finn are in love and their best friends puck and Santana only know Rachel loves Finn, they don't know who he feels at all. Sam is Sam Berry in this story and certain friendships will develop over the course of the story. Also Finn is more of the bad boy type in this story. Kinda think of it as puck and Finn switched body's but are still the same if that makes sense? Idk if it does but injoy!

It was the end of the first week of senior year and Rachel was spending her lunch period, sitting at the piano in the choir room. She was going over what she saw in the hallway. The boy she loves had a Cheerio-ho pressed up against a locker, shoving his tongue down her throat, and proceeding to drag said Cheerio-ho into the nearest janitor's closest. She knew she couldn't be upset because he didn't know how she felt. It was funny, if you thought about it; he was the only one of her friends that didn't know how she felt about him. Santana Lopes, yeah she didn't expect it either, was the second to know. The first was Noah Puckerman.
*Flashback*
She sat down on her made bed and took a deep breath, as Noah Puckerman stared down at her.
"Noah, I love you…I do. It's just" she paused, trying to come up with the right words she wanted to say. "I'm not in love with you anymore. I think I'm in love with someone else." She said. Noah's face didn't fall, like she thought it would. He looked…Happy? She must have looked as confused as she felt because he took at deep breath, sat down and smiled.
"I know. I think I've known for a while actually. I love you too, Rachel, but I'm not in love with you either. But I think I know who you are in love with. If you don't mind me asking, is it Finn?" he questioned.
"Y-Yes… I'm sorry Noah. I know you probably feel like I stabbed you in the back or something. I never wanted to lose my feelings for you Noah. It's just… I don't even know how to put it into words. I have all these big words and none of them fit for my feelings." She looks down at her lap." I don't know. I've known Finn all my life. We use to be sort of friends when we were younger, but once we entered junior high, it changed. The funny thing is; I despised him in my freshman year. I don't know. I saw a side of Finn that not many people get to see. He's kind, caring and romantic. He remembers dates and the little things about me and those dates. He never wanted me to change. He didn't care what people thought of him for going out with me. God! He even took a slushie facial for me and picked me and glee over football. I don't even know how to tell you what he means to me." She let out a groan and fell back on the bed.
At this point, Noah was full blown beaming at her. Funny thing is he's known this whole time that she was in love with Finn Hudson. Rachel was nervous at this point. If Noah Puckerman could figure out she was in love with Finn Hudson, who else can see it? God, how is she so obvious. He must have read her mind.
"Rachel. I'm not smart in school, but I know when someone is in love with someone else. I defiantly see it among my friends. But with Finn, he has this wall built up, because he doesn't want to seem or feel weak and also because when his father died he was really screwed up. I can't tell what his feelings are anymore, so I have no idea what he feels." Noah said
"Wow, when did you get so smart. Noah… who are you in love with? I want to help you successes in your love life. So who is this girl?" Rachel asked as she sat up.
"Samantha Good" Finn replied.
"The new transfer student?" Rachel asked "Okay… let's see. Do you know what she likes?"
Ant that is how we spent the next 2/3 weeks left of summer vacation.
*end flashback*
Noah has Samantha, Sammi as he calls her(like what I did there;)), now thanks to Rachel's help. But here she is not knowing how to get the guy. Noah brought her and Sammi to one of Santana Lopez's parties and things happened that lead to the famous Pezberry friendship.
*Flashback*
Rachel walked into the party in a little black dress that cut off right at mid thigh (' that every girl has in her closest' not her she just bought it 4 days ago) and red high heel pumps. Santana came up to her and gave her a once over.
"Damn,Berry, you look sexy. Didn't know you looked like that."
" Thank you Santana. You look good yourself." Rachel replied awkwardly.
" Come on, Berry, Let's get you something to drink." Santana said as she led Rachel through the throng of people to the kitchen
"Alright Berry, sit your ass down and we gonna do some shot games."
"O-okay." Rachel replied wryly.
The night proceeded in game of truth or shot.
"Okay Berry, Truth or shot."
Rachel already half way to buzz replied "Truth."
"okay. Who do you like?"
"Finn Hudson." She replied without hesitation because of the alcohol running through her veins.
"What?" Santana said shocked.
"Umm…"
"Its okay berry, We are going shopping tomorrow after we lose our hangovers and I wanna be your friend now okay?"Santana said.
And that's how the party went like. Rachel and Santana talked about themselves and their lives. And true to her word, Santana took Rachel on a shopping spree the next dat. They have been inseparable since.
*End Flashback*
This lead to what she is wearing now, dark blue jeans, purple converse high tops, purple tank top and a white cardigan. Thinking of Finn Hudon, she began to play the piano to the song she has been singing since the middle of summer. (A/N: the song is thousand years by Christina perri. I don't own it but for this story lets just say Rachel wrote it.)
(Verse 1)
Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid
To fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt
Suddenly goes away somehow
One step closer
She was thinking how every time Finn talked to her, heart beat faster like it wanted out of her chest.
(Chorus)
I have died everyday
waiting for you
Darlin' don't be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more
She keep thinking that no matter what she would always love him.
(Verse 2)
Time stands still
beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything
Take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath,
Every hour has come to this
One step closer
He was always there. No matter what day, time or thing that was going on.
(chorus)
I have died everyday
Waiting for you
Darlin' don't be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more
And all along I believed
I would find you
Time has brought
Your heart to me
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more
One step closer
One step closer
(Chorus)
I have died everyday
Waiting for you
Darlin' don't be afraid,
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more
And all along I believed
I would find you
Time has brought
Your heart to me
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more
She was brought out of her mind, when she heard clapping. She whipped around and saw Santana, standing in the doorway with a bright smile on her face.
"Did you write that?" Santana asked Rachel
"Yes."Rachel replied in a small quiet whisper. "It's not very good, but I'm working on it."
"Are you fucking kidding me Rachel! That song is so fucking amazing. You need to perform that song in Glee today!" Santana said.
"No, Santana. I don't think so." Rachel said getting up.
"Why, not. You would blow everyone away!"
"Santana, think of what I said in the song, then ask me again."
Santa thought back to what she heard. When it came to her she made an "O" face.
"You wrote it for Finn, didn't you?"
"Yes, Santana."
"So, he won't know. Please, Rachel, perform it today, for me. If people give you shit, than we will run away from the room and chill for the day." Santana said, trying to bargin with Rachel
"Santana…" Rachel replied warily.
"Please, Please, Please, Ple…" Santana began.
"Fine, Santana!"
"Thank you, Rachel. Don't worry, everything is going to be fine. Come on, the bells about to ring and we need to get to Math." Santana said
Rachel and Santana gathered their things and headed to their Math class. Rachel barely concentrated in class. She was worried what people would think when she sang the song.
'Would they know who it's for? Would they laugh at her, if they did? Would Finn laugh at her? Would he be nasty and curse her out? Would they be mean to her?' Lucky for her the bell rang, Unlucky it was time for glee.
Rachel just stood outside the door to the choir room. She was so nervous, everyone but her and Santana were in the room waiting for Mr. Shue. Santana came up next to her.
"Come on, Rachel. Don't be nervous. What happened to that strong, determined girl that was in that same room 2 years ago? Where is that girl that demanded every solo?" Santana questioned
"She scared of being rejected." Rachel replied quietly.
"Come on B. Nothings gonna happen. I'll be right there with you."
"Okay, Santana"
Santana and Rachel walked into the room. All eyes turned to them. Then the comments started.
"Wow, Diva, wanted to be center of attention. Well at least her outfit today isn't atrocious." Kurt sneered
"Who's closet did you take that out of?" Mercedes asked snidely.
"Man-Hands still looks like a boy. Not much to show." Quinn said nastily.
"Shut the fuck up! Really God! Do you all have to be so fucking nasty to her all the time? What the fuck did she ever do to you, huh? Yea so shut the fuck up and keep your damn comments to yourself!" Santana yelled. Everyone quieted down and stared at her like she had grown 6 heads. "Kurt, Rachel always helped you when you were slushied,actually she helped all of you when that happened to you, but you never helped her! She also helped you be brave when you were being bullied for being gay. Mercedes, she helped you with you stupid fucking crush on Kurt, or at least tried. She helped you get a fucking boyfriend for fuck sakes. And the rest of you, you guys don't stick up for her at all. You use her for her fucking talent, because we all know we would be shit without her. God, you all are fucking idiots." At this point, Santana was turning red with anger. Rachel stepped up and put a hand on Santana's shoulder.
"Santana, it's okay. Calm down. You made your point. Now let's sit down." Santana looked at Rachel.
"But…B…" Santana whined
"Santana, it's okay. Thank you for standing up for me." Rachel said with tears in her eyes.
"B, I'll always stand up for you. You are my friend and I love you."
"Thank you Santana, I love you too."
Santana and Rachel took their seats in the back corner of the room. Mr. Shue walked and asked if anyone had anything to sing. Rachel slowly raised her hand. Shue smiled.
"Okay, Rachel. Come on down! What will you be singing?"
"Umm…I-I'll be singing a song I wrote." Rachel said.
"Rachel, It's not another 'My Headband' song is it?" Noah asked.
"No, Noah. Not this time at least." She chuckled a little.
"Okay Rachel go ahead and sing."
Rachel walked over to the piano, asked Brad to get up, and sat down on the piano bench. Rachel took a deep breath and looked at Santana, who was smiling at her and giving her thumbs up. Rachel started to play the intro to the song. With another deep breath she began to sing. At the end of the song, Rachel looked up at all her teammates. They all had a similar look of shock on their faces. Rachel felt scared, like maybe they were shocked because she sucked: Maybe the song wasn't good. Santana rand down to her and hugged her, then Noah came up and hugged her and kissed her cheek.
"That was amazing Rachel! I knew you had a great song somewhere within you." Finn said
Kurt snapped out of his daze.
"Rachel probably wrote the song for Noah. She probably doesn't like that he is going out with someone so much prettier than her!"
"Wow, Okay! Kurt, Shut the fuck up. You don't know shit!" Rachel was the one that helped me get Sammi to be my girlfriend. So Shut up!"
"What? Why would Rachel help you get another girlfriend, she is so in love with you!" Kurt asked.
Before Noah or Santana could say anything Rachel beat them to it.
"Because, Kurt, I'm not in love with Noah anymore. Maybe if you pay attention to anything other than my outfit for the day, by the way Mercedes, is all mine, you would see that, although I love Noah, as a friend, I am no longer in love with him. So if you could, excuse me for this, Fuck you and Shut the fuck up, because you don't know anything about me. So if you would kindly keep you options to yourself, it would be gladly appreciated."
"Rachel that's not appropriate…" Mr. Shue began.
"Really Mr. Shue, you of all people should shut up. Every day I come in this room and I am being yelled at from every side of it. I'm critiqued and bullied every day, but the minute I say anything to defend myself, I am in the wrong. So, no don't tell me that I'm the only one being inappropriate!"
"Yea, Shue, Rachel's right you have your favorites." Santana said
"Santana, you remember the offer you made me earlier…"Santana nodded. " Can we go do that now?" Rachel and Santana left the choir room, leaving everyone in shock because:
1. Rachel cursed
2. She isn't in love with Noah
3. Because she just stood up for herself and against Mr. Shue.
