What happens when the heart of the team loses her confidence and gives in? Most importantly. The right question was. WHAT had taken away her confidence in herself and her voice along with it?
'Midget!' Santana had to repeat herself a couple of times before she woke up the girl that was lost inside herself.
'I haven't seen you in glee club for the past week, what is up with that, midget?' her barely competition asked her with what sounded like concern?
Rachel awkwardly tried to shuffle past the Mexican brunette. She tried to move past her again, and the move proving to be more taxing that the usual crap the other girl would always throw her direction. She was relieved that at least she wasn't dishing out her usual insults.
'So fess up Midg, this IS really getting old! Sectionals are almost up, and we can't rehearse properly without you! So fess up so we can all get back to it' she said with mocked amusement, she couldn't imagine the smaller girl to ACTAULLY have bigger problems than herself.
'You have a better voice than me, I'm sure you can take my place' the girl had actually sounded like she believed what she was saying, sounding like a meek scared little rabbit more than anything else.
The Mexican brunette raised her eye brows and definitely knew something was majorly up with the usually badly dressed full of herself Berry. She was going to make it her mission to find out what was wrong with the girl that usually held more confidence in herself than Santana pretended to be. This was NOT good.
She knew what it was like to be fighting for everything that she had. That was why she was such a bitch at school, so she was given it without question, and of course, she knew that she was somewhat hot. She scoffed, hell yeah, she KNEW she was GOD DAMN HOT! She had to refocus on her mission at hand, as she watched the some-what beautiful girl walk down the hall to her next class.
'Hey hot stuff, what's with the intense gaze on your rival?' Noah was always good at breathing in the entire situation like it was his sixth sense or something. It annoyed her more than she would ever admit to the boy.
'Don't start shit up Puckerman. I aint down with that right now. So best you keep on moving that a-way.' She wasn't in the mood dishing it out with him right now. Though she usually relished it with amusement, they BOTH did.
'What schemes are you coming up with now bitch? Does she REALLY get up your ass that much? Can't you see something is definitely down crazy with her?' it would usually irate her how clued in he was about everything, she had to admit, that if Puckerman had ACTAULLY used his smarts on his studies, he would DEFINETLY be going places. He just didn't realise it yet.
'You noticed to Puckerman?' she said with a quiet surprise.
'Hell yeah woman! You'd have to have your blinders on, not to notice shit like that going down. I mean look at her, she doesn't even GIVE a shit that, perverted Jacob, who's ALWAYS eye balling her and trying to touch her breasts, is even sitting next to her, unbelievable closer than she would EVER let him, if there wasn't something up with her. Anyhow, what do you even give a shit? You dish her out every fuckin' moment you are near her' Santana raised her eyebrows to how much Puckerman actually knew about Rachel. WHAT was up with that?
'What's with the Intel Puckerman? You not telling me something?' she tried to divert the attention away from the situation.
'Rachel's cool. Cooler than people actually want to admit. She maybe waaay self-absorbed with herself, but she has a good heart' wow puckerman's really sticking up for Rachel. Now what is definitely up with that?
'Just drop it!' she faked annoyance and watched as he careless tossed his coke in the trash can, and of course, swishing like he always did.
She watched as he walked up to Rachel, and woofed at the pervert to leave Rachel alone, the other boy ran like his life depended on it. He was actually talking to her, and she stood up and gave him a hug, trying to hold back tears.
Before Santana knew it, she was standing next to Rachel and Puck. With surprised faces all around the cafeteria, she didn't have a clue what made her stand there now, with so much concern filling her heart.
'What'd you say to her Puckerman?' Santana said with an anger they had both never heard before because they both eyed her with surprise clearly showing on their faces.
'I just asked her if everything was ok, chillax Tana!' he knew she hated it when he called her that. She glared at him, knowing it was because of the nickname, he just smirked.
'Sorry..' Rachel said meekly and ran from the cafeteria, almost knocking over a girl carrying a tray loaded with her lunch. Everyone looked on with amazement awe, but none held concern, as the boy and girl that was left behind with stunned faces.
It was now clear to both of them, that they had to team up to unlock her secrets.
