Quinn sighed as she walked into her next class of the day, which happened to be math. Oh how she despised the subject more than any other. What made it worse? She shared the class with her, sat right next to her.
Every single day of her life, she was forced to smell that now painful scent of roses and her eyes were forced to meet those chocolate brown ones. It was like a dagger to her heart each time.
Why'd you have to ditch me? Why'd you care more about popularity over our friendship? Her eyes would ask those questions each time she stared at the girl. And in return she'd only get a glance, then the latina would go back to focusing on the thing they were working on together.
Sometimes Quinn thought she could see a small glimmer in her eyes, a little sliver of hope that the two would be friends again. But each time she was only met with disappointment.
Right. You got pregnant. She thought to herself as she looked down at her small baby bump, running a hand over it, gently. The blonde chewed on her bottom lip as she looked back up at the teacher who was now speaking to the class, talking about tonight's homework.
"Now, you're gonna have to use your partner for this assignment, so I suggest going over to one another's house or figure something out." Mr. Thompson said, making Quinn's gaze automatically slide over to the darker girl next to her.
"So come to my place at 6 pm?" Santana said in a voice that lacked any type of emotion. Of course nowadays when Santana spoke to her, it was usually harsh words, or she'd give her the cold shoulder.
"Yeah, I'll just uh have my mom drop me off." Quinn said, nodding before turning her attention back to the teacher just as he started talking about their classwork for today.
It wasn't that Quinn had any problems in math, she was smart enough to do the work, she just really didn't like it for some reason that even she didn't know of.
For the next hour, they worked silently on their classwork, only mumbling questions about it to each other occasionally but that was about it. And Quinn was relieved when the bell finally rang, dismissing them from class. Santana stood up, walking briskly out of the room before Quinn even had all her things together. The blonde stood up and walked out of the room, heading for the lunch room.
"What's up girlie?" she heard the voice of Mercedes from behind her and she turned around, offering a slight smile for the girl.
"Oh just heading to lunch." Quinn answered, nodding towards the cafeteria.
"Well come on, we'll eat together." Mercedes offered, looping her arm through Quinn's, heading for the cafeteria with Quinn.
They sat together through lunch, talking about everything that had been going on, how Quinn's baby was and what her plans were for the baby. When lunch was over, Quinn stood up and Mercedes gave her a big hug before heading off to her art class.
The blonde sighed and dumped her tray then she began heading down the hallway to her next class which was English. She was fairly well at that, being as she enjoyed writing, reading and other things among the subject.
Quinn took her usual seat by the window, it was here she'd often sit, staring out the window at the football field where the cheerios were practicing. She'd sit here and watch Santana as she went through the harsh routine that Coach Sylvester put all the cheerios through, particularly to test who would be the next head cheerio being as Quinn was no longer on the team.
While it hurt to watch the cheerios go on without her, it hurt even more to watch the girl she was so deeply in love with, the girl who used to be her best friend, who was and still is her everything.
"Quinn!" she heard a loud whisper beside her before a jab in her side.
Quinn glanced over to see Tina staring at her. "Huh?" the blonde said quietly, wondering what was going on.
"Mrs. Meyers just asked you a question and she is looking." Tina said through her teeth.
Quinn snapped out her trance-like gaze and looked up at the teacher. "Could you repeat the question?" she asked Mrs. Meyers.
"I asked if you remembered what last night's homework was" Mrs. Meyers said, looking at Quinn with curiosity. She was used to Quinn not being very aware of what was going on ever since she found out the girl was pregnant. Meyers assumed that it just had to do with her being pregnant though because she knew Quinn was a bright girl and usually didn't have any problems with her class or the work.
"Oh" Quinn said, racking her brain to remember what last night's homework was. "It was the essay on what we think about the reading selection we read the day before in class." she answered after a moment.
"Correct, everyone get your essays out and turn them in." Mrs. Meyers said, turning her attention away from Quinn.
"Here I'll take yours up there." Tina said holding her hand out as Quinn pulled her essay out of her bag.
"Thanks Tina." Quinn said softly, smiling at the girl before handing her the paper and watching her walk off to the turn in box.
By the end of the day Quinn was exhausted and dreading the visit to Santana's house later. She wasn't exactly sure of what was going to happen but it was sure to be awkward being as they weren't really friends and Santana didn't know that Quinn was in love with her. All she had to do was get through Glee Club and then she could go home for a few hours before she had to go to Santana's house. The blonde made her way to the choir room and took a seat by Artie and Mercedes.
"Okay everyone before we get to rehearsing is there anything that you guys would like to sing for the class? 'cause we've gotta come up with some ideas first for our set list and I think it would be good to hear a few ideas from you guys." Mr. Schue said, setting a stack full of papers on the piano.
As usual, Rachel's hand shot up. "Mr. Schue if I may? I'd like to sing one of my favorite songs by-" Rachel started, before Quinn cut her off.
Quinn stood up and walked to the front of the classroom. "Sorry to interrupt Rachel but Mr Schue, I have a song I'd like very much to sing." Quinn said softly, glancing at Mr. Schuester who just nodded, allowing Quinn to start.
Quinn walked over to the band and told them which song to start playing before moving back to the front of the room.
"Some things we don't talk about. Rather do without, and just hold the smile. Falling in and out of love. Ashamed and proud of, together all the while." Quinn began softly looking around at everyone, who were staring back curiously.
Quinn's eyes flashed to Santana's, who was watching her. "You can never say never, while we don't know when. But time and time again, younger now than we were before. Don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go." she sang, looking away from Santana now as she walked backwards a little bit.
"Picture, you're the queen of everything. As far as the eye can see, under your command. I will be your guardian when all is crumbling, to steady your hand." Quinn started, looking into each of the glee club members faces as she sang, including Santana's. She repeated the chorus and when she was finished, everyone clapped for her and some stood up to hug her.
"Good job Quinn, we'll definitely take that one into consideration." Mr. Schue said proudly as Quinn returned to her seat.
When Glee club rehearsal was over, Quinn stood up and headed for the entrance, wondering what tonight would possibly bring.
