Not Over You
When I looked back to Finn, he was gone. Could he really still feel that way about me? I'm sitting with my boyfriend, on Valentine's Day, thinking about my first love. Does that sound wrong to anyone besides me? I feel bad knowing that I was probably the one causing him so much pain.
After Mr. Shue dismissed us from glee I decided to look for him. As I was about to go search for him someone grabbed my arm.
"Hey Quinn. Are you ok? I mean you were spacing out a lot during class." her boyfriend asked concerned.
"Hmm? Yeah, yeah I'm fine. I'll call you tonight ok?" I reassured him.
"Uh, sure. Bye." he waved after I gave him a quick peck on the cheek.
Knowing Finn, he would probably be in the auditorium or out on the fields. But when I checked both places he wasn't anywhere to be seen. Then I checked the parking lot and found that his car was missing too. I got into my car and sat down thinking of where he could have gone. He probably didn't go home. No reason for him to be the local park. Suddenly it hit me. I knew where he was! I started the car and drove as fast as I could to my destination.
Just as I got out of my car I heard his beautiful voice being carried across the lakeside. I slowly and quietly walked up to the big tree and hid behind it. I listened intently to the song he was singing.
Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen
Oh, but something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart was melted to the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy, baby
But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open
Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal is
To keep me from falling
Oh, but nothing's greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy
Maybe
But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open
And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see
'Cause I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
Oh, you cut me open and I
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
Oh you cut me open and I
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
Could I really be causing him that mush pain? I stepped from behind the tree and walked up to him. "Hey." I softly said.
"Quinn? What are you doing here?" he asked puzzled as to why I was only mere steps away from him.
"I went to look for you after glee ended. I checked the auditorium and the football field, but you weren't there. That's when something from inside me told me that you would be here. Came to find out if you were ok." I quickly explained.
"Yeah, well I'm fine. Thanks for your concern." he mumbled.
"Do you really think that I'm going to believe that?" I questioned as I took a seat by him.
He hesitated for a second but finally answered."No, I guess not."
"Good. Now why don't you really tell me what's wrong." I demanded.
His voice was low but I heard him. "I miss you...a lot."
It took me a little awhile to register it. When I finally processed it into my mind, I heart soared. He missed me! He missed me! It took me a second to realize that he was staring at me. I could easily tell that he was being completely sincere.
"I miss you, too." I echoed before scooting closer and resting my head on his broad shoulder. He didn't seem to really mind.
"Do you remember the last time we were here?" he wondered aloud.
"Absolutely. It was exactly last year. You had arranged the most romantic date ever. There was a picnic set up right here and we had the perfect view of the lake in the moonlight." I remembered.
"That night I also told you that I love you."
"And I told you that I love you."
"It was the best Valentine's Day I ever had because you were there to spend it with me." he trailed on.
I lifted my head and looked straight into his eyes. Before I could stop myself, I was leaning forward. Our lips were so close and the timing felt so right, but the moment was interrupted by my phone ringing. I pulled back, to his dismay, to answer it.
"Hello? Ok...yeah...I'll be right there." I hung up and put my phone back into my purse. I looked down, not wanting to see the hurt in my eyes and explained. "That was Sam. I'm sorry but I have to go."
"Whatever." he said as plainly as he could, hoping that I wouldn't be able to sense that he was unhappy.
I did. I felt horrible for adding onto his suffering. What didn't help was that I was leaving him for Sam. I leaned over and gave his a small kiss on the cheek. Afterward, I stood up and walked to my car. This time I was the one who was escaping the scene, not him. I looked at him one last time before I left, and I could have sworn that I saw at least a single tear making its way down his face. How can I fix this?
Thanks for reading! Next chapter will probably show how they're affected by their encounter. Please review.
