Quinn Fabray, My Girlfriend?
Summary: Rachel Berry is in a horrible accident and ends up in the hospital. When she wakes up she sees Quinn Fabray, the girl who bullied her, watching over her. She s frantic and doesn t understand why she d be here, nor why she has a locket around her neck that s engraved with Rachel and Quinn Forever.
Quinn clinged tightly to her beatufiul girlfriend s hand, tattered with gauze and the IV link. She sighed down at the sight, and sat back down in the comfy arm chair that was placed next to the bed.
Quinn had been here for the past 24 hours, barely moving an inch from Rachel.
She couldn t bear the thought of losing her, and now that she was safe, she wanted to keep the connection she knew so well in tact.
When Quinn Fabray felt the small, petite hand beneath hers writhe in frantic motions, she screeched as loud as she could.
Tears streamed down her rosy cheeks and her body felt a rush of adrenline forcing itself through her veins. She was awake. Of course she is, Quinn thought skeptically.
Right away the nurses and one doctor piled into the room and forced Quinn into the dark background of the tiny room. They worked on her, checking her blood pressure and all of that while shooting around questions.
She sat content in the back, watching the chaotic scene in front of her as she smiled in happiness that Rachel was awake.
When they all left, the head doctor, Dr. Chu, patted Quinn s shoulder in sympathy. Or at least it seemed like sympathy. The room finally cleared, leaving a drowsy Rachel slumping in the hospital bed, and a ecstatic Quinn staring down at her.
Q-Quinn? The Quinn Fabray? Rachel questioned, looking up in astonishment. She barely even noticed the beautiful figure lurking in the corner, and now she was curious. Was this girl really going to slushy her while she was in the hospital?
Yes? How are you feeling, honey? Quinn said through tears of joy, wiping them away with the tip of her tissue. She sat back down on the comfortable chair and attempted to reach across to grab her girlfriend s hand.
Rachel immediately jolted back, a feeling of threat and panic settling in her stomach. Please don t hurt me. Rachel pleaded, closing her eyes in an attempt to block out the oncoming pain.
I would never, love..W-why would you even think that? Quinn asked, confusion was etched into her tone.
Love? I think the question is why are you calling me that? All you ve ever said to me was religious slurs and hate toward Glee club. Why are you even here! Rachel huffed a laugh, her voice dripping with poison as she asked the most hurtful words Quinn could even imagine.
I came as soon as they called me, Rach.. Of course I d be here. Quinn said calmly, praying to God that this was simply a long nightmare and no longer reality. This couldn t be happening. This situation only happens in depressing movies and tragic novels. Not her life. Not when everything was so perfect, and especially not when she was about to propose to Rachel.
I don t see why. Unless you were the culprit that has me locked into this cell, there is absolutely no reason for you to be here. So you can just stroll along on your merry little wa- Rachel paused, her hand was running along her neck in an attempt to locate the cord that held the Nurse button, when she noticed the locket placed gently around her neck. Slowly, her eyes looked down at the metal, heart shaped container draped across her pale skin.
Oh my god.. Rachel breathed out as she read the words Rachel and Quinn Forever.
We aren t- ..We re not..W-we can t be.. This isn t happening.. Rachel frantically repeated, quickly leaping out of bed.
Rach, what the hell are you doing, Quinn squeaked out, staring at the outrageous action Rachel was acting. Get back in bed, you re going to hurt yourself!
But I m not even gay! Rachel exclaimed, basically having a meltdown in the middle of the hospital room. The nurses gave curious looks from the hallway and Quinn just smiled back at them.
But silently, Quinn was crushed by those words. It had taken Rachel an eternity to finally come out, and to admit she had true feelings for Quinn. And since then it had been nothing but bliss, but the harsh history they had was supposed to be buried deep in the memories of regret. It was a journey they both embarked on that was filled with terror and agony. A path that Quinn Fabray certainly never wanted to veer on ever again.
This is ridiculous. You have to leave. Rachel demanded, sitting back down in her bed with her arms folded. Now, please. Rachel sighed, eyeing Quinn angrily.
..Alright. Quinn said, hurt evident in her quiet voice. Please just try to remember.. Quinn gave one last look at her girlfriend, or whatever she was now, and walked out of the room. Tears flooded her eyes as she realized just how broken she just became. Her heart was shattered into a thousand pieces, but she was determined to restring them piece by piece.
Quinn Fabray..Head cheerleader.. most popular girl in McKinley high school. My girlfriend. This is most definitely a nightmare Rachel pondered, her mind going absolutely crazy right now. Or an amazing dream. She sighed, laying back down in the bed.
