I walked with a nervous confidence into the choir room. It was early so only few were present. Quinn, Blaine, Tina and Puck. Blaine was the only one I wanted to see. I gave a nervous glance into the hallway to make sure Kurt wasn't coming. I smiled when I didn't see him, I turned back into the choir room. Blaine was looking nervously at me. I walked quickly over to the seat next to him.
"Rachel, do we have do it today?" He asked.
"Now or never." I smiled encouragingly at him.
"I don't know. I mean Kurt..."
"Hey. It's you and me. You have dragged him on long enough."
"Right. OK. Today."
"Greetings New Directions." Kurt announced. I jumped up. Kurt gave me a strange look.
"Right, that sounds like a good song Blaine, you should totally sing it." I said quickly.
"Huh? Oh right yeah." He added quickly after I had angled a quick kick at him. I sat down in front of Quinn. She leaned forward.
"So, what's going on with you and Blaine?" She asked.
"Nothing. Mind your own business." I sniffed. She raised an eyebrow.
"Right." Brittany waltzed in the room singing Loser Like Me lightly. I looked at Blaine, he looked around Kurt and gave me a smile. Finn walked in then and saw the little smile. His eyes widened a bit. They returned to normal after just a second.
"Hey Rachel. So I was wondering if you wanted to sing a duet with me, I have a good song in mind."
"No thanks Finn. I was going to sing a duet with someone else already." His face fell a little.
"Oh, OK then. Another time then maybe?"
"Yeah, maybe..." My phone buzzed.
Blaine: What should I do? I don't know what to say...
Rachel*: Just come out. "Kurt, I like you, but me and Rachel have had feeling for each other for much longer than this. I didn't mean to lead you on..." Something like that 3 You can do it. I believe in you. And I will be close by to help. I promise.
I sent the message swiftly before Finn could lean over to read it. Blaine gave the message a scan and was about to reply before there was a loud screeching noise.
"What the-" Puck jumped up.
"Y-you!" Kurt pointed at Blaine, "a-and you? What the hell?"
"Kurt I-" Blaine started but Finn interrupted.
"Whoa, Rach? I thought you were better than that! Didn't you learn your lesson with me?" He shouted.
"Oh shut up, Finnocence! You made me cheat on Sam! When did you become such a hypocrite?" Quinn cried.
"Wait you cheated on Sam?" Puck asked.
"Not now Puckerman." Quinn threatened.
"What's with the shouting?" Santana asked as she and Sam walked in the choir room hand in hand.
Brittany gave her a play by play on what just happened.
"Whoa, Berry's got game." She said.
"You cheated on me Quinn?" Sam asked quietly. As former HBIC, Quinn gave a small icy shrug.
"Whatever. Water under the bridge."
"You-" He started.
"GUYS!" Blaine shouted, "Stop!" Everyone stopped there fighting to stare in surprise at Blaine. I, however, did not move my gaze from Kurt who was sobbing slightly in his chair.
"Kurt." Blaine put his hand on his shoulder but Kurt jerked away.
"No! No! You and Rachel can live a long, happy life. Whatever! I'm over it!" He stormed out just as Mr. Schue and the rest of the members of Glee club came in. Mr. Schue saw us all standing glaring at someone and Kurt's tearful expression.
"What's going on guys?" He immediately asked. Everyone remained silent. Kurt glared at me and Blaine. Finn glared at me. Sam at Quinn. Lauren at Puck. Must of missed something there. Mercedes looked at everyone unknowing of what to do. Brittany and Santana stood quietly near the piano. Tina and Mike holding hands in front of it.
"Guys?" Mr Schue asked again.
"Ask that boyfriend stealing whore." Kurt cried, pointing at me.
"Kurt!" Blaine, Quinn, Sam, Puck, Brittany and Mercedes shouted.
"Kurt, you don't mean that. You and Rachel are friends." Quinn said.
"How can you say that? She took Finn away from you."
"Finn and me were falling apart anyway. The heart wants, what the heart wants, lady. I moved on. Time for you to do so as well." She said coldly. I gave quizzical look, since when does Quinn stand up for me. The boyfriend stealing whore.
"Whatever. I'm leaving." And without a second glance Kurt swept from the room.
"Rachel? Is this true?" Mt Schue asked. Without lifting my head I nodded.
"Rachel, I expect better of you."
"Doesn't everybody?" I exploded. "Jesus, look, Mr Schue, with all due respect, you are a great teacher, but you just don't understand. I'm sorry, but this is bigger than you know." With a sigh I slammed down onto my chair. Quinn and Blaine sat either side of me holding my hands. Brittany sat behind, softly pulling her fingers through my hair. Santana followed Brittany and tapped me on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, these things happen, it'll get better." She said.
"Thanks, Santana." Seriously, what the hell, Quinn AND Santana? Finn was less helpful, glaring at me all during practice. Mercedes was still confused, I mean, me and her were friends, but she was friends with Kurt too. My phone buzzed again. I squeezed Blaine's hand then let go to get my phone.
Kurt: Can you and Blaine meet me at the cafe after Glee club.
Rachel*: Sure, Kurt. Please don't hate me, Please.
Kurt: Just meet me there.
Rachel*: OK, we'll be there, I promise.
Kurt: Good.
Another buzz.
Quinn: I know it's weird for me to be sticking up for you, but I understand what you're going through.
Rachel*: Thanks, it's just strange and with Santana too. I don't get it.
Quinn: You have been tossed around too much Rachel, you deserve friends. Brittany is to soft-hearted, she'll help anyone. And Santana, well, she just follows Britt around.
Rachel*: Thanks barbie.
Quinn: Hey, what are friends for...Man-hands ;).
I leaned over to whisper in Blaine's ear.
"Hey, Kurt want's to meet us after Glee club." He nodded swiftly at my bequest.
"Rachel, quiet." Mr Schue said.
(Time Warp)
I waited at our favourite cafe, I fidgeted aimlessly until Blaine put his hands over mine.
"Relax, Rach. It'll be fine." He said.
"Really, because me and Kurt are best friends. What if he hates me, oh god, what have I done?"
"Rach, stop. Please, your making me nervous."
"Am I? OK, I'll stop." I spotted Kurt in the doorway. He was talking hurriedly with someone I couldn't see, I noticed that he was tall he black hair. My first thought was Finn, but he has more muscle. I cinched my eyebrows in thought.
"Do you recognize him?" I asked Blaine.
"Uh huh, that's Wes, he goes to my old school." He said stiffly. Kurt cam up quickly to sit down.
"I don't hate you. I want to thank you." He said.
"Thank us?" I asked.
"Yes, by breaking up with Blaine, I was able to start seeing Wes."
"Wes?" Blaine exclaimed, "he's not gay."
"Apparently he is."
"So we're good? F-friends?" I asked.
"Of course, diva, you helped me." he replied softly.
"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!" I cried and threw my arms around his neck.
