Come Back To Me
Chapter 1
Lima, Ohio Senior Year…
It's the first day of senior year, Quinn has snagged the spot as head cheerleader, and her boyfriend Sam has a starting spot on the football team. Along with being at top of the pyramid she is also in Glee Club. Yeah Glee Club has a geeky rep, but she manages to stay on top while doing both. She can't help it if she loves to sing and cheer. It's the end of the school day and as she is sitting in Glee talking to Santana and Brittany, a weird feeling washes over her. She doesn't know what it is, but she doesn't like it. As she is about to return to her conversation someone walks through the door. A face that Quinn never thought she would see again, but there she is in the flesh in front of the entire glee club; Mercedes Jones.
…
"Quinn, Quinn, why are you staring at the new girls like you just saw a ghost?" Brittany says while nudging Quinn in the shoulder. Santana chimes in next and says, "New girl is hot!" at that Quinn comes too and whips her head toward Santana. "What did you say?" Santana says "The new girl, look at her, she is gorgeous." Before Quinn can say anything Kurt makes an announcement, "Hello fellow Glee clubbers, glad to see all of your faces. Before we get started on this year's set list I would like to introduce all of you to one of McKinley Highs newest students Mercedes Jones. Mercedes is a transfer student and she was lucky enough to snag a locker right next to mine. That's where I heard her humming something unbelievable and forced her to come and audition for glee club. Of course she agreed because I wouldn't take no for an answer. So here to sing for us right now, Miss Mercedes Jones"
While Kurt had been talking Mercedes' eyes were locked on Quinn, not in the "OMG I can't believe it kind of way, but in the "Is this really my life right now" kind of way. Quinn however did everything in her power to avoid eye contact. Mercedes was brought back to the world around her by the sound of applause. She smiled a beautiful smile before saying "Hello everyone, nice to meet all of you. Umm I'm Mercedes and I hope you enjoy." She turns to whisper to the piano man and with one last look at Quinn she opens her mouth to sing "Aint No Way" by… as she is singing all the glee club members, and even Mr. Schue have their mouths hung wide open in shock and amazement. No one expected Mercedes to be good, hell she was great. After the last note everyone stood, hollered, and clapped their hands rapidly, showing how much they enjoyed her performance.
Mike is the first one to say something, "Wow girl that was just wow!" Artie is next with, "Damn momma you are on fire!" Then Rachel says. "You sing with a lot of emotion, very good" As the clapping dies down and everyone takes their seats Mercedes does a slight bow and says "Thanks everyone that song means a lot to me." Santa knowing there is more to the story and wanting the details says, "What happened?" Kurt quickly says "SANTANA!" shrugging her shoulders she says "What?" Mercedes interjects, "No, no Kurt, its fine." She turns to look at Santana "I was in love once, but she broke my heart. I sang that song to her to show her how much I loved her, but I guess it wasn't enough. I was heartbroken for a long time, but I'm okay now." Giving Santana one last smile she turns to Mr. Schue and asks "So am I in?" Mr. Schue replies, "Is that even a question, of course Mercedes your voice is amazing. We could really use you on our team" Mercedes smiles and takes a seat in-between Kurt and Tina.
Quinn has been silent this entire time. She stood to clap with the others as to not draw attention to herself, but secretly she had been dying on the inside. Seeing Mercedes unleashed a wave of emotions she thought were buried and gone. "Mercy" Quinn said under her breath while taking her seat. As if life weren't cruel enough…
