Author's note : Since we have a few weeks until Glee comes back from hiatus, I decided to write a Quick fic based on the episode 'On My Way'. For all you Quick shippers out there, don't give up hope! ;)
P.S. I do not own Glee or it's characters.
'Beep!'
Quinn sighed. She briefly took her eyes off the road and glanced at her phone. It was Rachel.
'WHERE ARE YOU?' the message read. She hurridly texted back 'COMING' and hit the send button. Focusing back on the road, Quinn's thoughts drifted from Rachel's wedding to her current state. For once in her life, Quinn was happy. She had gotten back on the right path and true to Puck's words, she would leave Lima after all. It was really all thanks to him that she realized her mistakes and made amends. She suddenly recalled what she had told Rachel after the latter had informed her that she was getting married.
"I've dated Finn, Puck and Sam. I may have loved some of them but by the time the snow falls in New Haven next year, I'll have forgotten why."
That was a lie in itself. Quinn would never forget why she loved them. Well, why she loved him in particular. Ever since she hugged him on stage after they won sectionals, they had spoken more than usual and when she told the glee club that she had gotten into Yale, his shining eyes and face expression said it all, he was proud of her. She sighed again. She would miss him when she leaves and she realize that she'll probably never see him again. Realization hit her like a ton of bricks. She loved Puck and always will. And if she did not make the first move and tell him, he would never know. Right there and then, Quinn Fabray made a decision : she would tell Puck her true feelings when she reached the wedding. 'No chickening out' she told herself sternly 'it's now or never'. With a new-found sense of satisfaction, Quinn kept her hands on the wheel and drove steadily, now more than ever eager to reach the wedding.
'Beep!' 'Ughh...is Rachel really in such a hurry to get married?" Quinn thought as she looked at the text. 'HURRY UP!' those two words glared at her as if they were accusing her of being late. For a split second, Quinn took her eyes off the road, grabbed her phone and texted back 'ON MY WAY'. It turned out to be the biggest mistake of her life.
Before she could hit SEND, she heard a shirking noise and turned her head just in time to see a truck smash into her. Her world turned blank.
Rachel Berry was upset. The wedding was into 10 minutes and Quinn still did not show up. She was trying to pay attention to pastor and to Finn who looked oh-so cute in his tux but deep down, she was silently worried. Her phone was in Kurt's hands and she had asked him to signal her subliminally if Quinn texted back or anything. But as she glanced furtively at Kurt who was sitting in the second row, he mouthed at her 'Nothing."
Maybe it was like what Santana said; Quinn had changed her mind and decided not to come. And they were getting along so well these days. She sighed .' Do you, Finn Hudson take Rachel Barbra Berry as your lawfully wedded wife?' 'I do.' declared Finn as he smiled at Rachel. 'And do you Rachel Barbra Berry, take Finn Hudson as your lawfully wedded husband?' 'I...' At the corner of her eye, Rachel saw that Kurt was answering her phone. The look on his face transformed from a look of shock to a horrified expression. After what seem like eternity to Rachel, he set down the phone and almost immediatly, Puck who was sitting directly behind him pulled his tux collar back and said something. 'Rachel?' Finn prompted her gently and indicated towards the pastor. There was an awkward silence as the guest shifted uncomfortably at the scene but Rachel didn't care. Puck was usually a chilled, laidback guy but seeing the horrified look on his face as Kurt spoke to him, she was sure that something had happened to Quinn. Rachel glanced at Kurt, who was hurridly talking to Puck in what looked like a panic tone. She willed him to look at her and when he caught her glance, he confirmed her fears when he mouthed back 'Quinn'.
Puck was bored. Sure, it was his best bro's wedding to his jewish-american princess but weddings weren't the Puckzilla's thing. Bachelor parties were more like it. Sitting in the third row, he surveyed the crowd. Santana was in front, sitting with Brittany who was resting her head on San's shoulder. The dudes were all with their girlfriends ( and boyfriend) and he was alone. Quinn was supposed to be his sort-of partner at the wedding but she had not showed. He texted her but did not get a reply and through the wedding march and opening speech by Leroy Berry (who before closing mentioned that he was a 12-time shooting champion while giving Finn the eye), he was worried about her. He knew Quinn pretty well and she always kept her promises. But as he watched Finn say his vows, he heard the faint tinkle of 'Don't Rain on my Parade' from Kurt's pocket. Kurt answered the phone and Puck could hear the conversation.
'Hello? No, this is her friend. Yes, I know Quinn .' At the mentioned of Quinn, Puck urgently leaned forward to hear more.
'What? Oh my goodness..Is she badly hurt? Okay, I'll tell her..thank you.' Kurt put down the phone, visibly shocked. Puck grabbed Kurt 'Kurt, what happen?' Kurt looked at him and said shakily, 'Quinn got into a serious car accident. A truck slammed into her and medics doubt she'll make it. They're sending her to Westfield General Hospital's emergency unit now. They dialled Rachel's number because the last unsend message was to her.'
Puck 's heart sanked. He was lost for words. He then realized that the entire wedding had come to a halt, Rachel was staring at him and Kurt, ignoring Finn and the guest who were staring at her. 'Kurt!' she called 'What happen to Quinn?' Puck answered 'She's hurt real bad. They're sending her to the ER at Westfield General now!' Without caring what anyone thought of him, he ran out of the hall straight to his truck. 'She has to make it.' He thought as he revved up his truck. 'She has to..' and Puck stepped on acceleration.
