This quick one shot is part of Chasing Dreams that I'm not sure will make it into the story but Kikky asked for it and I figured it'd be a fun little bit to write so here you all go :D

Disclaimer: Don't own Glee, if I did I doubt I'd be nice enough to share as much as the ones who do own them share.

This one's for Kikky :D enjoy


"For your information, Kurt, I am done. There will be no crawling back, as you say. Last year I thought we all had finally gotten to a point where we were actually a group, all of us a sort of messed up family but now I realize Jesse was right about one thing. You never appreciate the talent that you have among you. You all take me for granted, expecting me to take all of the crap you throw at me day after day and then when the time comes for a competition or something goes wrong and you need a quick fix you turn to me to save the day. No more. I'm done. I don't need any of you but you all needed me and I want you all to remember that I would have given anything to make us win as a team before but now… now in terms you will all understand, I just don't give a damn." Rachel had snapped, before turning to walk out

Puck first thought was, 'Damn she's hot when she's angry' then he started clapping, proud of her finally standing up for herself. He heard Matt and Mike clapping beside him, and surprisingly Santana too.

Once she was gone, he stood up and Quinn immediately zoned in on that, "And where do you think you're going?" She asked, as if she didn't know.

"After Berry" He answered, grabbing his stuff and walking to the door.

"Good, you can get her to get her white ass back here so we can get on with practice." Mercedes said, not noticing a couple other members getting up as well.

Puck turned back to the club, "I could, you're right, but I'm not going to. You dumb asses screwed yourselves over, I'm not fixing your mess." He turned back to thhe door then threw back over his shoulder, "oh yeah, I quit too" and with that he left, leaving half the club and Mr. Schue with their mouths wide open.

Matt and Mike were already to the door before Finn called out, "Where are you guys going?"

"We quit too," Mike answered for both of them before walking out to find Puck because they didn't know where Rachel lived.

Santana had been quiet during the whole thing, sent a quick text to Puck before standing up and going to the front of the room, Britney followed her.

"She's right you know?" She started, causing everyone to look at her.

"What are you talking about? Right about what?" Quinn asked, in the same bitchy tone she had used on Puck.

"None of us fully appreciated her talent or the fact that she's bailed our asses out of more messes in this club then we deserve. We wouldn't still be a club if it weren't for her and all you assholes did was treat her like shit over and over again and then expect her to come through for you time and time again when you needed her."

Britney nodded, frowning at everyone because though she wasn't a hundred percent sure what was going on, she knew everyone had been mean to Rachel and she didn't like it. She liked Rachel. Rachel was the only one person besides Santana who didn't make her feel dumb.

"If I remember correctly, you weren't exactly her biggest supporter," Kurt replied to Santana's little speech.

"Last year, no, but this year was different and everyone of you know it. All of you were there last summer and all of you know who chose Rachel's side and who chose to support the cheating bastard instead.

"Hey" Finn yelled, not liking being called out.

Santana rolled her eyes but didn't' acknowledge him other than that. "Since this summer, everyone of you still here has been worse to Rachel than ever before, even you two have started acting out against her" Santana looked towards Tina and Artie, who had been trying really hard to not be noticed.

When Santana saw they weren't going to say anything to that, she went on, "If you guys think about it, Rachel's right. She doesn't need any of us, she's going places and all of you know it, with or without us. We all needed her. Rachel is glee, without her you all have nothing. Good luck winning anything without her." She turned, linking pinkies with Britney and started walking to the door, "And for those of you who didn't realize, we quit too. Later losers"

Britney looked back over her shoulder for a second, frowning at all of them and shaking her head, before following Santana out.


Everyone started talking amongst themselves before Kurt spoke above all them, "Well, the diva did it again"

Tina looked up at him, "What do you mean?"

"She threw a diva fit and now we're left to pick up the pieces and fix glee" Quinn answered for him, rolling her eyes.

Artie spoke up for the first time, "They're kind of right though. Without Rachel there is no Glee Club. She's the one that really got us together and now that she left, she took half of the club with her"

Mercedes spoke up next saying, "We have to get her back, it's the only way to get the rest of the club. We could replace her but not all six of them"

Finn said, "I could get her to come back"

Quinn smacked him, "You are not going to go flirt with that, that thing, again!"

Finn threw his arms up in the air, "I thought we needed to get her back, it worked before"

Kurt rolled his eyes at his step brother, "She'll see right through that, not only did you do it before but she kind of hates you right now"

Finn frowned at that but didn't say anything.

Kurt went on to say, "Tina, you and Artie are probably the ones she hates least in here, why don't you talk to her tomorrow?"

Mr. Schue picked then to speak up, "I'll talk to her. I'll tell her she can have the lead in Lucky, that'll get her to come back."

"MR. SCHUE! Finn is not singing with her. That is mine and his."

"Quinn, I think we all know that the only way to get her back is to give her what she wants…" Mr. Schue started.

Quinn interrupted him, "If you do this, Finn and I quit"

Mr. Schue's mouth dropped, as did Finn's. "What?" Finn asked, dumbly.

Kurt glared at the blonde before turning back to Tina and Artie, "So you guys talk to her tomorrow and if that doesn't work, we'll give her the part and if Quinn wants to quit, we'll find her replacement. Ones doable, six isn't."

Quinn glared at him but kept her mouth shut, however Tina spoke up, "No" and that one word made the whole room fall silent.

"What?" Kurt asked, surprised.

"She was right, we were all awful to her, I'm not going to ask her to come back when I know nothing is going to change." Tina replied, quietly but firmly.

"Artie?" Mercedes tried.

Artie shook his head, "Tina's right. I don't really like her but the girl hasn't done anything to any of us to deserve the treatment we all gave her. I'm not dragging her back into it."

"FINE" Kurt yelled, frustrated, "I'll talk to her tomorrow, make some sort of truce or something but damnit you all owe me" And with that he stormed out of the room, Mercedes close behind.

Finn and Quinn left soon after that, quietly arguing about Quinn trying to volunteer Finn to quit.

Mr. Schue turned to Tina and Artie, "You guys realize, if Rachel doesn't come back Glee will be canceled right?" He started, knowing full well that Kurt wouldn't get through to Rachel.

"Well, Mr. Schue, you should have thought about that before breaking promise after promise to her" Artie replied, before leading Tina out of the room. Schue stared after them but didn't say anything because he knew they were right.

He put his stuff up and looked around, knowing it was over and it was his fault.


Santana had caught up with Puck by his truck, "What'd she say?" She asked, nervously.

"She said she didn't care but that she wasn't going back to glee." He answered, "Follow me"

Santana nodded, seeing Matt and Mike in Matt's car, ready to follow as well.

"Where are we going?" Brit asked her as the jumped into her car.

"To see Rachel" Santana answered, starting her car.

Britney clapped, "Good, she seemed really upset, I bet she needs a hug"

Santana just nodded, her mind off in the clouds as she followed Puck through the streets towards Rachel's house. She wasn't sure what kind of welcome she'd get from Rachel but she had to try, she knew she'd been awful the year before but she was truly sorry about that and was hoping that Rachel had realized that from her actions since summer, even if she couldn't make her self actually go up and apologize.

As they pulled into Rachel's driveway, Santana couldn't help but hope that Rachel and her would be able to get over all of that and be friends and maybe some of Rachel's crazy determination would rub off on her and get her out of this town.

With that she shut off the car and her and Brit walked with Matt, Mike and Puck to the front door. Instead of knocking though, Santana was surprised to see Puck pull out his keys and use one to unlock the door. She looked over at Mike and Matt and raised an eyebrow, but both of the just shrugged at her, obviously not knowing why he had a key.

He let them in and told them to wait in the living room as he went and got her. When he was gone, Santana turned to the boys, she saw Mike bouncing around the room, looking at all of the pictures, knic knacs and the huge tv so she ignored him and turned to Matt, "Interesting change of events" he nodded his head, but didn't say anything.

"You think she meant it? About quitting?" She asked, wondering if Hummel was right and she'd turn back to looked at her then,

"You were there right? Rach actually stood up to the entire glee club. She finally showed that backbone, that she uses against Puck all of the time, against all of them. I doubt she's going back now. They pushed her to far."

Santana nodded, "I figured as much, it's just weird. I told them that she is glee, and it's true. Without her.." She stopped and shrugged, he knew what she meant.

"Yeah, it'll be weird without it but it's not like we can't still sing or dance just because we're not in the club"

As if to prove a point, Britney started singing "You drive me crazy," By Britney Spears loudly and dancing around the room with the bouncing Mike.

Smiling at their best friends, Matt and Santana both realized that everything was going to be alright.


I didn't like the ending but it went right up until Rach sees them so, this was written quickly and may be rewritten. Some of the summer drama will be brought up in the story but there is a separate one shot that I'm working on about it as well. I hope you all enjoyed.
