Rachel and female OC romance in this story and hopefully Faberrittana friendship in the end. Finn and Rachel never dated.
Alright lets get started on the first chapter.
16 year old Quinn Fabray was at her house with just chilling by her pool with her good friends Mercedes Jones and Kurt Hummel. It was the second week of summer vacation and Quinn was already missing her true best friends. They don't speak to her anymore since 9th grade year. Sophomore year for her was filled with drama. Quinn was dating Finn, cheated on him with Puck who was dating Santana at the time. Quinn ended up pregnant, kicked out of her house, lived with Mercedes Jones, had the baby after Show choir Regionals which they lost. Now Quinn was back to getting her figure back after giving birth to her daughter who she ended up giving up for adoption to Rachel Berry's birth mother, Shelby Corcoran.
Speaking of Rachel Berry. She used to be best friends with her along with Santana Lopez and Brittany Pierce then 9th grade happen and she lost the most important people in her life over a chance to be popular.
Flash back.
Quinn, Santana and Brittany just made the cheerios and were excited to Rachel. She supported them and told them that they'll always be her best friends.
"Alright girls now that your offically on the cheerios. I need Quinn to throw a slushie at the biggest loser freshman here in front of the whole hallway tomorrow." They stared at each other not liking this.
"Does she have to?" Brittany asked not feeling comfortable about this.
"If you want to be on the cheerios?" They all nodded yes. But throwing a ice cold drink at somebody was stupid and could totally blind a person.
"Then yes you have to do it. Her name is Rachel Berry. I'm sure you'll know who she is once you take a good look at her. I mean who wears kneesocks with an ugly skirt like hers? I mean did she her argyle sweater? Can you say gross?" The head cheerleader named Carmyn laughed with the other cheerios.
The girls didn't mind the way Rachel dress. They found it adorable how she didn't care about what others thought about her clothing choices. That's why they were best friends.
"Can't I just pick somebody else? Rachel doesn't deser-" Carmyn cuts her off.
"Do you give the orders around her Fabray?" She shook her head no.
"Good to know because last time I checked I was head cheerio. Now do it or else I'll tell coach that your not fit to be on the cheerios after all. Santana and Brittany? You'll be with her while she does and you two better call her Man hands or something that will make her cry. She needs to know that she'll always be at the bottom at this school."
The girls leave the locker room with Carmyn. Santana and Brittany stared at Quinn wondering what she's going to do.
"You wouldn't actually do that would you Q? Rachel's been our best friend since 4th grade. She'll end up hating us." Brittany pouts agreeing with Santana.
"I don't have a choice. You heard what Carmyn said." Santana shook her head. She wasn't going to be apart of this.
"Your being selfish Q. You rather risk your friendship with our best friend just to be stupid cheerios?" Santana yelled.
"Santana this is my chance to make my daddy proud. I thought you both wanted to be on the cheerios with me?" They do.
"We'll be on the cheerios but we won't be there when you slushie our best friend. It's wrong Q." She sighs.
"So your just going to let me do this on my own?" Santana grabbed her cheerios bag.
"You shouldn't want to do it. Rae's our best friend. I'm not going to be apart of this. It's your funeral Quinn Fabray." Quinn frowns.
"I need to do this Santana. You understand right Britt?" She shook her head no. What Quinn was thinking about doing is a form of bullying and that wasn't okay with her.
"No I don't understand how you could be so cruel to our best friend. Come on San let's go tell Rachie the good news about us joining the cheerios." Quinn frowns.
"Please don't tell her." Santana just ignores her, walking out of the locker room with Brittany.
The next day Quinn walked into McKinley High in her cheerios looking for Rachel. She spotted her talking to Santana and Brittany. She cleared her throat making all three girls turn around, staring at her.
Rachel smiles brightly at her best friend. Quinn was like a sister to her along with Santana and Brittany but she was alot closer to Quinn.
"Hey Lucy. You look good in your cheerios uniform. You excited for your first practic-" She gets cut off with a slushie being thrown in her face.
Brittany and Santana shook their heads not believing she actually did it. They thought she would sleep on it but she actually did it.
Half of the school started laughing at Rachel. Rachel stood there freezing cold and fighting her tears. How could Quinn do this to her?"
"Rach I'm so sor-" Rachel dropped her books on the ground making her jump.
"SORRY? IS THAT WHAT YOUR ABOUT TO SAY? HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY?" Quinn starts tearing up.
"Rach I really am sorry. I didn't have a choice." Rachel felt her eyes burning. She didn't want to hear her lies.
"Come on Rachie let's go to bathroom to get you cleaned up. Your lucky I brought a exra pair of clothes today." Brittany brings her to girls bathroom.
Santana stood there shaking her head. Quinn made the wrong choice.
"I guess being popular meant alot more to you then a friendship with all three of us." She starts to speak but she was cut off with a slap to the face.
"Don't okay? you made your choice and now you have to live with it." She picked up Rachel's books and backpack and walked towards the girls bathroom.
Carmyn walks over to Quinn and smiles so proud of her.
"Good job Fabray. You do know how to follow orders. Keep it up and you might be Captain next year." Carmyn walked off and told a jock to clean the mess up.
Quinn stood there wishing she could turn back time but there was nothing she could do about it. She lost all three of her best friends.
End of Flashback.
"Quinn are you okay?" She heard Kurt ask her but she couldn't answer him. She'll never be okay until she gets her best friends back.
"She's probably thinking about Beth. I'm sure it's still hard for her." Quinn listened to Mercedes tell Kurt. That wasn't the truth, but now that she thought about, she did miss Beth. She just missed Santana, Brittany and Rachel more.
"Mercedes can you take me home now. I forgot that I had to do something with my dad. Quinn are you going to be okay?" Kurt asked his good friend.
"Yeah guys. Go enjoy your summer." She waved at them as they leave. She picks up her phone and calls Rachel's cell phone, hoping she picks up. She needed to start with her first before getting intouch with Santana and Brittany.
"Hello?" The voice of Hiram Berry spoke.
"Um hi is Rachel Berry there?" Quinn asked Rachel's Daddy.
"Hold on a second. I'll go get her." Hiram person tells her. She waits.
"Hello Rachel speaking?" Quinn smiles hearing Rachel's voice.
"Hey Rachel it's Quinn Fabray." She doesn't hear anything and checks to see if she hung up. She sees that she hasn't.
"Rach are you there?" She asked hopefully.
"I know who are you. Your saved into my phone as of last year because of Glee club practices. What can I help you with Miss Fabray?"
She didn't like how formal Rachel was being with her.
"I'm calling to see if you wanted to meet up at the Lima Bean. I want to talk to you about the past. Can you meet up with me?" She asked hopefully.
"I'm going to have to decline it." Quinn sighs wishing Rachel wasn't so hard to understand.
"Why can't you come? I know what I did was wrong but can't you atleast give me a chance to explain? Please Rachel I'm begging here."
"I have my girlfriend over. It would be rude to just leave her." Quinn frowns forgotting all about Rachel coming out at school in the beginning of 9th grade year and started dating a girl named Malorie Crenshaw who was a cheerios. They dated for a month before Rachel found her cheating on her.
Now she had no clue who she was dating these days. She wanted to be in her life again. She wanted to make sure this new girl in her life was treating her right.
"What about tomorrow then? Are you free or do you have plans with Santana and Brittany?" She asked sadly.
"I'll let you know Quinn. I have to go now." Quinn frowns seeing that she hung up. She gets up and walked back into her house, grabbed her car keys and left.
"I'm going to get Rachel back into my life." She walked to her car and gets in, closing the door and starts her car up then puts on her seat belt. Quinn slowly pulled out of the driveway and drove off towards Rachel's house.
At The Berry House.
16 year old Rachel Berry just hung up with her former best friend and sighs. She wasn't ready to just jump back into a friendship with her after all the bullying she's done all year long. Quinn's called her some really horrible names. She tried to be there for her during her pregnancy but of course Quinn pushed her away. She just wasn't trying anymore.
"Who was that on the phone babe?" Her girlfriend asked. Rachel looks next to her and shrugged.
"Just somebody I use to be best friends with. We haven't been friends for awhile." Her girlfriend raised an eyebrow at her.
"What did she want Rae?" She grabbed her hand.
"Don't worry about it Annora. I told her not to get her hopes up. I'll just tell her that I can't make it." Rachel tells her, checking her girlfriend out. Annora has tan skin, hazel brown eyes, long jet black and blue ombré curly hair. She also has bangs. Her face was just beautiful. She was like Santana's height.
"Your too forgiving you know that Rae? Are you really going to give that girl another chance after she bullied you?" She wasn't sure.
"Babe you really need to talk to Santana and Brittany about this first before you agree to meet up with Quinn. It's the right thing to do." Rachel moves closer to her and pecks her lips.
"What was that for?" Rachel just smiles.
"Can't I just kiss my girlfriend? You make a good point though.I should talk to the girls about this" Annora smiles, leaning in biting her bottom lip and kissed her again.
Both girls were glad that Brittany set them up. It's only been three weeks since they started seeing each other. They became offical two days ago.
"Hey girls?" Hiram calls from the kitchen. They pull back giggling softly. They forgot that Rachel's daddy was there.
"Yes Daddy?" Rachel called out to him. She was enjoying her makeout session with her girlfriend.
"Would you two like a snack?" Rachel stared at Annora asking if she wanted a snack.
"Sure Hiram." Annora calls out to him then kisses her girlfriend quickly.
"Do you want to go swimming?" Rachel grins getting up and rushes to her room.
"Hiram?" She called out to him.
"Yes Annora?" He called out to her. He peaked out from the kitchen making her laugh.
"We're going swimming so you can bring the snacks outside." He says okay. She goes to change into her bikini then joins Rachel in the backyard.
In Rachel's POV.
I grab my towel ready to enjoy a nice swim with my girlfriend when my phone starts ringing again. I saw that it was Quinn. I might awell answer it.
"What do you want Quinn?"
"I'm outside your house. Can we please talk?" Was she serious? Didn't I make myself clear when I hung up on her?
"Quinn you can't just show up at my house. We aren't friends." It was the truth no matter how much it hurts to say that.
"That's why I'm here. Can you please just meet me in your backyard?" I sigh.
"Fine you got 5 minutes then you need to go." I hung up regretting this conversation already.
Annora is right. I am too forgiving. It's one of the things I hate. I might aswell get it over with. I walk downstairs and go to the back to see my Daddy talking to Quinn.
He seems really happy to see her. Great just what I need.
"Rachel sweetie you didn't tell me that Quinn was coming over. I invited her to stay for a swim and she of course agreed." I frown. He had no right to do that.
It's going to make myself and Annora uncomfortable. Quinn glanced my way and she smiles at me but I don't smile back.
"I'll leave you three to talk." He goes back in the house but not before giving a kiss on the forehead.
"Don't even think about staying. Your not welcomed by me." I tell her. She sighs.
"But Daddy said I could." How dare she? Only myself, Santana and Brittany are allowed to call him Daddy. She lost that privilege.
"Don't okay? your wasting your 5 minutes. Start talking." I demanded.
"Fine I know what I did to you was horrible but I had no choice." I just sat down on my girlfriend's lap still listening.
"Really? Your sticking to that?" I stared at her waiting for her to speak.
"Rachel please. I regret it the moment it happened but you didn't give me a chance to tell you that." I stare at her then giggle when Annora kisses my neck.
"Can you really blame me? I couldn't see for a few hours because I got cold drink thrown in my face. Britt and San told me everything. You chose to be popular over our friendship. Atleast San and B were my true friends. What were you?"
"A fake is more like it baby. I already answered your question for her." Annora says making Quinn glare a her.
"You don't need to be part of this conversation. I'm not a fake." Annora scuffs.
"Annora please. Let her answer the question." Quinn gave me a slight smile.
"Were you pretending to be my best friend?" She shook her head no.
"No I wasn't. I was being real. I just made a mistake. People make them all the time."
"That's true but what you did to me, was down right horrrible Quinn. You ruined my favorite sweater. You decided that making Carmyn proud was the right thing to do. You threw our friendship away to be on the cheerios." She started to speak but nothing came out.
"Is she a mute all of sudden?" Annora asked me. I give her a look to stop then I looked back at Quinn to see her crying.
"What are you crying?" I asked her.
"Because you hate me. I don't deserve your forgiveness but could you please try? I just want my best friends back." She tells me through her tears.
"What the hell is Quinn Fabray doing here?" I turn my head to see Santana and Brittany standing there with angry looks on their faces. This day just got worse.
That's the end of chapter one. I'll put out another tomorrow. I hope you liked the first chapter.
