I stirred as I awoke with a smile from hearing rain drops quietly hit my window. I got out of bed and opened my curtains, looking at the view in front of me. It was a dark day with black clouds covering every inch of the sky. Just my type of day, I thought to myself. I turned on my music and as I danced and sang to the lyrics of every song that came up, went through my morning routine.

By 7:30 I was dressed in my blue skinny jeans and a white long sleeve with my short hair pulled back into a messy pony tail. I then went downstairs to find my mother cooking.

"Good morning Mum." I said cheerfully and kiss her on the cheek.

"Good morning, Sweetheart. I made your favourite." She says as she puts a plate down in front of me.

"Mmm.. Bacon." I drool as I impatiently start eating with my hands only to be scolded by my mother. I give her a sad look, pouting and she just laughs before heading upstairs. I finish up quickly and grab my things on the way out.

"Goodbye!" I yell to my mother so she could hear me from up stairs.

I close the door behind me and walk down to the driveway where I parked my car. I putmy bag in the back seat and then got into the driver's seat and began driving to school. I listened to the radio as I drove but so far nothing that interestedme had came on, just people talking about their lives, so I changed the channel to another of my favourite stations. Almost instantly I knew what the song was. 'Baby one more time'. How that brought back memories. I remember that day, only because Rachel had looked so hot- Oh, I must have forgotten to tell you that part. Yes, I had a crush on Rachel Berry, maybe more than a crush. I've had it for awhile now, I was just too afraid to show it. Also I couldn't really do anything about it, she was with Finn and even though I loathed him, I couldn't hurt her anymore. I was so mean to her before that I wish I could take it all back but I guess were friends now, so it's okay. At least I can call her my friend. I got so lost in my thoughts that it wasn't long before I realized I was in the car park of my school. I parked my car as close to Rachel's car as I could and got out with my bag over my shoulder, locking the door with a click of a remote. I put my keys in my bag and walked to the front door of the school, which was crowded, might I add. I did my best at sliding through the crowd then stopped instantly when I felt a hand on my shoulder. It was my best friend, Santana.

"Hold on let me do this Q" she said before she yelled to the crowd. "Alright, move it everyone I'm trying to get through here!" In a matter of seconds a path was made and Santana took my hand with a wicked smile and pulled me towards the door.

"You know you didn't have to do that, I was quite fine-" She cut me off.

"Q, you should have seen yourself. You had the face of a disgusted, lost puppy." I looked at her, raising my eyebrow and she lifted her hands in defence.

"I was only telling you the truth." She said with a cheeky smile. I let it go and walked to my locker. First up I had English. English was one of my favourite classes, mainly because I could stare at Rachel while she sat at the front of the class and not get court doing it. I got my book out and headed to English. Just as I walked through the door I heard the bell ring from above me which made me jump a little. I hoped no one saw that, I thought as I went and sat down to my best friends, girlfriend, who happened to be a part of our friendship circle. She greeted me as I sat down with a happy smile and I returned her with the same. The class started when everybody had filled in the seats around us. I looked towards the front, searching for Rachel but she wasn't there. That was odd, very odd of Rachel not to be here. She was always one of the first to class. Did something bad happen to her? I spent ten minutes of the lesson looking at the door when I heard Brittany answer a question.

"Well my book told me that Wally can hide really well... It took me a week just to find him on one page." The teacher sighed.

"Brittany, Where's Wally doesn't count as reading a novel." Brittany was a sweet and innocent girl but sometimes I wonder about her. I looked back towards the door. Another 2 minutes passed and I just couldn't stand it anymore, I had to go look for her. I raised my hand.

"Yes, Quinn?"

"May I go to the Bathroom?" I asked. She shrugged it off.

"Sure, why not." I got up and grabbed the hallway pass with a smile.

"Thank you."

When I got a fair way from the classroom I started running, I couldn't take to long otherwise the teacher would get suspicious. First I checked the girls toilets, she wasn't there. I checked the choir room and the theater, she wasn't there either. I kept running and running past classrooms and offices when I heard someone call me.

"Miss Fabray?" I turned and saw that Miss Pilsberry was standing just outside her office.

"Yes?" I said smiling as I slowly walked towards her.

"Is something the matter? You seem in a rush."

"I uh was, I needed to go to the bathroom really badly." I said showing her the hallway pass that allowed me to go the bathroom. She could see that I was panicking.

"Quinn, don't panic. I'm not going to tell you off." I sighed, being able to breathe again.

"Now, what's wrong?" She asked, softly.

"I- I was looking for Rachel." I explained.

"I saw her car this morning but she wasn't in class so I was looking for her..." She seemed to understand.

"That's nice of you to do that Quinn. Rachel was sick and headed to the nurses office for awhile." She smiled. "Should I tell her that you're going to visit during break?" I felt better now that I knew where she was and that she was well, kind of alright. I wasn't sure if I could handle being in the same room with her alone though, It only reminded me that I couldn't have her even though I wanted her so badly.

"No, it's okay. I'm just glad to hear that she's okay, thank you." I told her before walking back to class.

That afternoon I sat down at a lunch table by myself while I picked at my salad. I wasn't really in the mood to eat. Rachel had gone home when I finally had the confidence to go see her, I was disappointed to find her not there but I guess if she was sick it was best if she went home. I even thought of things to say and ask when I went but that wasn't important anymore. I looked down at my salad as I ripped the lettuce into pieces with my fork. I heard someone pull out a seat and sit down in front of me but I didn't look up, I had a pretty good idea who'd it be.

"Q? You look sad, what's wrong?" I heard Brittany ask. I looked up and gave her a weak smile.

"I'm okay, just the time of the month." I lied but she didn't push it any further.

"Where's Santana?"

"Here." The Latina said as she pushed a plate of food in front of Brittany and sat down. Brittany's face lit up at the site of her food and quietly began eating. I continued to sit and pick at my food while my friends made small talk that I wasn't interested in joining. When they had finished, Brittany went to put there trays away and I instantly were asked a thousand questions.

"Alright Fabray, spit it out." She told me, not even holding back her bitchiness. When I didn't answer, she got out her seat and came to sit next to me. She carefully placed her hand on my shoulder and apologized, which was something she never did. Trust me.

"Sorry Quinn... Anyway What's wrong? You hardly even said anything the whole time and your food is ripped into tiny pieces."

"Nothing is wrong... It's just the time of the month." I lied again but this time it didn't work.

"Don't lie to me, I know that was last week." I didn't say anything. "Why don't we have a sleep over tonight? We can watch movies and eat all the popcorn we want, my treat." I looked at her and smiled a little.

"Sure."

Thankyou for reading,

Please review and tell me what you think. It'd mean so much if you did.

I spaced it out a little more so I hope it's easier to read for some people. c:
