Hi everyone. Cris here. This is my first story and I'm young. English is not my first language so please go easy on me. I will continue this if enough people review, if not what's the point right? :D Have a nice day everyone :)
Quinn watched as the choir room fills up with the enthusiastic glee kids. She had been in the choir room ten minutes early reading 'Where Rainbows End' by Cecelia Ahern. Everyone greeted her as they came in and in return she smiled. As Rachel came in, she felt her heart beat faster and she became nervous. She looked away and found herself listening to Brittany talk about eggs.
"Okay everyone! I decided to do something fun and exciting for you guys!" Mr. Schuester said as soon as he came in the room.
"Paint your face green?" Brittany asked. Quinn smiled.
"What? No, Brittany. I decided to have another duet battle!" he exclaimed.
"But why?" Kurt asked although you can see he's very excited.
"Well I guess I sensed that you guys are failing to co-operate again so this is my way to boost you up," he smiled widely clapping his hand.
"Your way or Ms. Pillsbury?" Santana smirked. Mr. Schuester ignored her and produced a black top hat behind the piano.
"Faith shall choose again," he said in a creepy voice.
"Ok, I'm going first!," Sugar jumped excitedly. She puts her hand in the hat and pulled a slip of paper. "Rory!"
Rory smiled at her as she took her seat, smiling widely at the Irish. Blaine got up and walked towards Mr. Schuester.
"Artie," Blaine said with a toothy smile. They high-fived and sat down together. Mercedes got up and pulled a slip.
"Puck," she said in a not-too-happy voice. Puck was too busy caressing his mohawk to hear so Finn lightly punched him in the arm.
"You got Mercedes, bro." Finn said.
"Awesome," was the bad boy's answer before going back to caressing his mohawk. Kurt went next.
"Santana," Kurt said smiling. A fake one. Santana rolled her eyes as Quinn stood up,putting her book down on the seat, and pulled a slip. She looks at it for a moment before saying, "R-rachel."
Quinn smiled at the direction of the brunette, who smiled back.
"So that leaves Finn and Brittany together. Good partners everyone. Now the has to be a love song since Valentine's Day is coming up," Mr. Schuester explained "and whoever won will be getting two free meals at Breadstix and they will perform in our upcoming Nationals. So I suggest you all work hard and have fun." He added.
Everyone stopped listening to him after he said Nationals. Everyone was whispering and talking except a certain short-haired blonde
Rachel Berry is my partner. Rachel. Berry. I can't believe this. There is so many people in this club and I get Rachel. I would have accepted Puck. Oh God. Why her? Why the girl I've been thinking about? Why the girl who makes my heart beat faster. The girl I've got a huge crush on.
Quinn Fabray mentally facepalmed herself.
Quinn was eating lunch with Santana and Brittany in the lunch hall. They were talking about the new cheerleader who joined.
"Do you know her name Q?" Brittany asked.
"The new cheerleader? No, I don't. Haven't met her yet. I may talk to her after school," Quinn replied.
"I heard she's really pretty and not bad at cheerleading,"Santana stated. Brittany frowned at her fries and Santana immediately put a hand over the tall blonde's back.
"You're the most beautiful person I've ever met," Santana cooed. Brittany flashed her a wide smile and they got talking about their parents. Quinn's eyes darted to Rachel who just sat down a few tables away with Finn,Kurt,Mercedes,Tina and Mike. Quinn watched her laugh to something Finn had said and couldn't help feel a bit jealous towards the giant.
"Yo Quinn, checking Berry out?" Santana smirked.
"What? No. It's just her outfit. You think she'd learn," she said nervously biting on a carrot stick.
"Whatever. Anyway have you talked to your partners about what song you're going to do?" Santana asked poking a piece of chicken.
"Not yet," Quinn replied.
"Yeah!I suggested Love on Top but Finn said no. I also suggested single Ladies but he just walked away like he needed the bathroom," Brittany said. Quinn laughed softly,
"What about you San?"
"Actually me and Kurt got talking in Maths this morning. We have loads of ideas. It's going to be great," she said nonchalantly.
"That's great babe," Brittany hugged the Latina as Quinn's eyes wandered over to Rachel again who was now talking to Kurt. Rachel unexpectedly looked back at her and Quinn mentally hit herself for staring too long. She turned back to the two girls in front of her.
Santana was sending a smirk at her but still listening to Brittany. Quinn groaned quietly.
Rachel turned to Kurt and smiled at his antics about how Santana was unbelievably nice to him in Maths. When Kurt finished speaking, he looked at Quinn and her two best friends sitting a few tables away. He noticed that Quinn's eyes were flitting to Rachel every few seconds. He caught Quinn's eyes and the blonde blushed. Kurt smirked,
"I have the best gay-dar," he whispered.
"You said something Kurt?" Mercedes asked.
"Nope, nothing," he replied eating his fries, grinning.
Quinn was at her locker when Kurt cried in a panic voice, "Oh my God Rachel! What happened to you?"
Quinn spun around to try and see the small brunette but when she did, no diva.
"And that ladies and no gentlemen, is the art of acting," Kurt laughed.
Quinn glared at him closing her locker ,"What do you want Kurt?" Quinn asked.
"Me? Nothing really, just the truth," Kurt sing-songed.
"What truth?" Quinn asked walking towards class.
"The truth that you have it bad for our very own Rachel Berry," Kurt said walking beside her. Quinn stopped in her tracks looking at Kurt blankly.
"Me? Got it bad for Rachel? What are you talking about?" Quinn mumbled. Kurt sighed turning serious.
"Quinn Fabray, I dare you to look at me, directly in my eyes, and tell you don't like Rachel like that?," Kurt crossed his arms. Quinn looked at the floor as the silence stretched on.
"Fine! I do ok? Are you happy?," Quinn whispered fiercely. Kurt chuckled, "I knew it!"
"Hey Q!," Santana called from the end of the hallway. When she saw the blonde, she moved towards her.
"Quinn, I know you like Rachel. Don't even deny it! And now I want you to tell me I'm right cause I'm in a bad mood right now," Santana said not smiling. Quinn groaned for the tenth time today. She pulled Santana into an empty room because the hallway was getting crowded. Kurt followed them, smiling widely.
"Yes, I do like Rachel! But I'm not going to do anything about it," she hissed at Santana, "and do not tell anyone or I swear," she added threateningly to Kurt and Santana.
"Wait, Kurt knows?" Santana said ignoring Quinn and turning to the male diva.
"Of course I do. It's a bit obvious," Kurt said happily.
"Ugh, don't even get me started when Rachel was singing," Santana said.
"Guys," Quinn tried to stop them, putting a hand over her forehead.
"When? Last week or yesterday? Because last week, when Rach was singing, Quinn's mouth was open," Kurt excitedly muttered.
"Guys," Quinn tried again, a bit louder this time.
"Oh yeah, I saw that. I thought she was horrified by the dwarf's performance but now I know," Santana smirked.
"Guys!" the head cheerleader yelled. The two turned to her, "Hello! I'm still here," she mumbled.
Santana sighed, "Do you want to get into Berry's pants?" Kurt snorted.
"W-what? No!" Quinn stuttered clearly taken aback by the question.
"Quinn, dear, if you want my help, I'll gladly help you," Kurt said as Santana raised an eyebrow.
"Why do you want to help me? Finn's your brother," Quinn stated.
"Yeah but Finn…I mean I don't think Finn is good for Rachel," Kurt explained.
"Yeah…I'm outta here," Santana made a move towards the door.
"Oh nooo. You're going to help me with this. We're calling this Operation Faberry!" Kurt said stepping in front of the Latina.
"What? No way in hell I'm-," Kurt interrupted her, "Okay then. It's settled!" Kurt clapped excitedly.
"What's settled? You are not going to do anything. Forget we even had this conversation." Quinn said.
"Fabray, stop it. You're clearly head over heels for the hobbit, which I think is disgusting by the way, but you are my best friend," Santana said looking anywhere but the blonde.
"Awwww," Kurt said. Santana glared at him.
"Still a no. She's with Finn. She's straight and I'm….me," Quinn said, getting ready to leave the empty classroom, "there's no way in hell she'll love me back," she said quietly but Kurt and Santana heard it. Quinn was at the door when Santana said firmly, "We got your back, Q."
Kurt added, "Don't worry you'll get Berry!" Quinn rolled her eyes as she shook her head. She sent a smile towards them before the door closed.
