"Hey." She says as she sits next to me
"Hey."
"I just heard Finn yelling at Quinn in the hallway. Did you guys really quit glee?" Rachel asks and I can tell she really doesn't want to believe it's true.
"Yes," I sigh "We quit glee club."
"Why?"
"Coach told us we had to choose."
"You could of chosen glee club!" Rachel shouts as she jumps out of her seat
"I couldn't!" I yelled back
"Why not? You once said that glee club was the best part of your day!" I think Rachel's face is turning red out of anger, which would be a huge turn on if she wasn't really scaring the hell out of me.
"It was, but I've worked too hard to get to where I am to let it go!"
"Oh right, you wouldn't want to give up being Quinn's second in command!"
"Excuse me!"
"You heard me! Everything you do always comes second best to Quinn! She took your boyfriend, she took your spot as head cheerleader, and now that she quit glee your a good little second in command and follow right behind her right!" Rachel yells, which causes me to jump up and get right in her face
"How dare you! You have no idea what it's like to be popular! You don't know what it's like to have people fear you! To have them part like the red seas as you walk down the hall! And as for following Quinn, that's bullshit! I make my own choices!" I can literally feel the rage inside me. How dare she call me a second in command! I'm Santana Fucking Lopez!
"Really? You're actually able to make your own decisions!"
Her voice is layered with sarcasm
"Why do you even care! Don't have enough backup already! How dare you ask me to give up my popularity, when you sent a girl to a crack house so you don't lose your precious spotlight! Look how you just acted about me getting a solo at sectionals then you come in here and lecture me!" I think I won, because she sighs and lowers her head in defeat, but what she says next just tears me apart
"I just thought you were a better person than me."
"Look Rach-"
"Don't try and explain anything to me Santana!" Oh shit we're back to the yelling "I said I THOUGHT you were better than me, but now all I see is a coward! I've never been so disappointed in you Santana." And with that being said she storms out of the gym. She's disappointed? So what if she is? I don't care! I mean I shouldn't care, but I actually do.
I'm walking with Quinn and Brittany towards the bus leaving for our cheerios regional and I can't get HER voice out of my head. 'I've never been so disappointed in you Santana' 'I've never been so disappointed in you Santana' 'I've never been so disappointed in you Santana' 'I've never been so disappointed in you Santana'
"Ugh! Shut up Rachel!" I shout, which causes Quinn and Britt turn their heads towards me and give me a confused look on each of their faces
"San, Rachel's not here." Brittany says
"Are you ok Santana?" Quinn asks
"Yeah I'm fine." I can tell Quinn was going to say something else, but I give her a look that says drop it. We head to the bus and Brittany stops to stare at the cannon that coach Sylvester wants to fire her out of.
"I m gonna die." She says
"It ll be worth it." I say with a shrug
"Hey!" We hear someone shout and we turn around to see it's Frankenteen
"What are you doing here?" Quinn asks
"Stopping you from going to Sue s regional competition. You guys gotta come to the game with me."
"Haven t you been paying attention? If we re not Cheerios, we re nothing."
"You think that, but it s not true!"
Says the guy who tried out for the cheerios when he got kicked off the football team right? I thought
"You joined Cheerios to be popular but you joined Glee club because you loved it. Sue doesn t care about you guys! She s fine killing me honestly. If you didn t think it would hurt your reputation, which would you choose?"
"Glee club." Brittany says
"I know you and you don t think you are, but you re strong enough to do this." Finn tells Quinn
"Okay." She says
"Okay?"
"Okay."
"What about you Santana?" Finn asks
I want to say no. I want to say I've worked too hard to get this far, but then I hear HER voice again. 'I've never been so disappointed in you Santana' Ugh! Fine!
"Screw her. She put me on the bottom of the pyramid."
