What If I'm Wrong
Summary: One shot based loosley off of the spoiler for the finale that Quinn gives something to Rachel. ( Train Tickets). Just something to tide my brain over and live in the delusion that Rachel breaks up with Finn in the finale. Yup. Here you go.
A/N: Sooo I have writers block on my other story, but I promise I'm working on it. This idea kinda just popped into my head after I read the spoiler and heard this song on my itunes. Song is What If I'm Wrong by Ehren Ebbage.
On with the show...
Mr. Schuester walked into the choir room with his head bowed realizing it was the last time he would ever be here with this specific group of students. As he approached the piano and looked out across the sea of faces sitting in front of him he took a deep breath and began to speak some of the hardest words he'd ever have to say. These kids changed his life and they definitely meant the world to him so he just wanted to spend their last day together singing to each other.
"Alright guys, I'm going to open the floor to every senior to sing a song to the rest of us first and then they younger students can sing to our departing seniors. How's that sound?" Mr. Schue asked.
"Does it have to be a song for the whole group or can it maybe be a specific song for one person and we just want to get out what we need to say in song before it's too late?" Quinn asked hesitantly.
"Either one Quinn, the choice is really up to you. I just want you guys to spend this last day together sharing your feelings with each other. Singing your hearts out, and enjoying your last day together as a glee club, a family." he replied getting misty eyed.
Everyone sat and contemplated what they wanted to sing and slowly everyone started to go up and sing their songs. Tears were flowing freely and happy smiles were worn by everyone. Quinn finally realized everyone of the seniors but her had gone and Mr. Schue was beckoning her forward. She took a deep breath before descending the risers and taking her place in front of the rest of her friends.
"Okay, so this song, well, it's really only for one of you, and not that I don't love you all because I do, but I really need to get this out before I lose my chance and the love of my life is gone forever. I have to take a shot, probably my only shot, but I can't ignore this any longer. It's too big to hold in." Quinn mumbled looking directly at Rachel who wore a completely oblivious face and was looking around the room to see who Quinn could be talking about. She only landed on a smirking Santana staring directly at her which she thought was weird. Turning around in her seat and grabbing hold of Finn's hand, she settled her attention on Quinn and waited for her to start.
Yea I lose all reason
Like somehow I'm just not allowed
To keep my feet beneath me when you come around
In every direction
My attention scatters and stalls
It's hard to stay focused
I know you see it all
And I wait here out in the open exposed
The way I imagine
It should be easy
The stars all aligned
As if it was just meant to be
What if I'm wrong and you don't feel the same
Am I getting ahead of myself?
Made my own demons
Like there's harm in believing in fate
Guess I'm just scared that I'll make a mistake
And I wait here out in the open exposed
The way I imagine
It should be easy
The stars all aligned
As if it was just meant to be
What if I'm wrong and you don't feel the same
Am I getting ahead of myself?
The way I imagine
It should be easy
The stars all aligned
As if it was just meant to be
What if I'm wrong and you don't feel the same
Am I getting ahead of myself?
Quinn finished the song slightly breathless and still starring at Rachel waiting for her to catch on. She had watched the brunette slowly slip her hand from Finn's somewhere in the middle of the song and a confused look cross her face but it would seem she still had yet to process what it all meant. She waited for another beat or two before she got impatient.
"Rach-" she didn't even get her name out before Rachel was up out of her seat and out the door.
"Okay what the hell just happened?" Finn asked starring blankly after his girlfriend and looking back at Quinn.
"I gotta.. I gotta go after her.." she said and was out the door searching for Rachel everywhere.
Quinn had made it up and down all four halls and both upstairs halls at least twice before she realized where the brunette would have gone. She started off down the opposite end of the hallway heading towards their bathroom thinking about how stupid she was to not look there first. When she finally reached the bathroom door she took a deep breath and tried to compose herself before walking through the door. What she saw when she entered however was nothing she could have been prepared for. Rachel was sitting with her head back against the wall shaking from crying so hard. She didn't even hear Quinn come in until the other girl was right beside her wrapping her up in her arms.
"W-why did you have to ruin it Q-quinn? Why couldn't you just leave it alone?" she bawled into the blonde's shoulder.
"I don't understand Rach? I didn't mean, I never thought you felt the same. You can tell me if you don't I'm a big girl I can handle it. I just don't want to lose you as a friend even though you know how I feel. We can still just be friends Rachel!"
"We CAN'T just be friends Quinn. We just can't and you know that!"
"Why not? This doesn't have to change anything. I'll get over it!"
"Because it changes everything! It changes... It ... It.."
"It what Rachel, wha-"
Quinn was cut off by Rachel passionately capturing her lips and gripping onto her collar for dear life.
"Rach- Rachel wait!" Quinn stuttered as she pulled away.
"What about Finn? And NYADA? And you just kissed me... Holy shit you just kissed me." she sat dazed.
"I don't know Quinn, I don't, its not, I need time to figure this all out, but all I know is that I feel more for you then I've ever felt for anyone and I can't change that now, not knowing you feel the same way." Rachel replied holding tightly to Quinn.
"Well then, I have something for you, I mean I was going to give them to you regardless, but now, well here .." she trailed off handing Rachel a years pass of train tickets from New York to New Haven. When she noticed Rachel looking up at her she continued.
"I didn't want you to have an excuse not to visit me and I got myself a matching pack to come see you. I can't live without you Rachel Berry. That first ticket is for the weekend after we move. Figure out what you want, and if you want this, us, you'll be standing on that platform waiting for me to come pick you up. If not, well then I'll know my answer. I love you Rachel Barbara Berry, I always have" and with that she kissed Rachel once more and got up off the bathroom floor and walked out of the school leaving a stunned Rachel looking at the tickets in her hands for only a fleeting moment before she ran out chasing after the blonde.
