Thanks to jupiter01 for reviewing both chapters! You are amazing :D
This is Rachel's POV
Rachel is talking to Finn when she see's someone walk by with a cute red plaid shirt on. Rachel thinks to herself, "What a cute outfit, I wonder who that is?" She watches as the girl walks past her and to a locker. It's only when she realizes who's locker the girl is standing at that the person wearing the cute outfit is none other than Quinn Fabray. Rachel watches curiously as Quinn gathers her stuff and walks to class. She has her head down and that makes Rachel wonder because she has noticed how the once vibrant girl has been slowly closing herself off and drowning in her own sorrow. Rachel is drawn out of her thoughts by a commotion in the hall. She looks over and see's Quinn sprawled on top of Brittany and Santana coming down the hall looking pissed. Rachel watches as Quinn is thrown into the lockers by Santana and she realizes that Santana doesn't know who she is hurting. So Rachel walks over. She grabs Santana's arm. ""Santana stop you don't…"
Rachel doesn't have time to react before Santana pushes her. Rachel is jarred when she hits the floor but she looks up when she hears Quinn yell.
"Lay off Rachel! She did nothing and maybe if you weren't so quick to act you would realize why."
Rachel smiles and thinks its nice Quinn is standing up for her, but before she can get up Quinn is gone. Rachel picks herself up off the floor and turns to Santana.
"You know it isn't nice to throw your friends into lockers."
Santana snarls, "What are you talking about, Man hands, I don't even know that girl."
Rachel smiles sadly, "Yes you do, that was Quinn you just hurt. So I think you should go apologize."
Santana grumbles, "Yeah whatever." She begins to walk away but turns back. "Thanks Rachel."
With that Santana grabs Brittany's hand and walks off to find Quinn.
Rachel stops and thinks of the old Quinn and how she never would have stood up for her. So what just happened and what has been happening with Quinn?
Rachel goes through the day wishing Glee would just get here faster. Finally it is time for Glee, so she quickly heads to the choir room. She looks for the blonde but doesn't see her. So she looks over the song they have decided to perform. Rachel looks up when she hears someone playing the piano. She realizes it isn't Brad playing the piano but Quinn. Rachel watches as Mr. Schue walks into the class room and Quinn asks if she could perform a song.
Rachel listens to the beginning melody of the song and then Quinn starts to sing.
"Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching teardrops in my hands
Only silence, as it's ending, like we never had a chance.
Do you have to make me feel like there's nothing left of me?
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper"
Rachel listens to Quinn sing and she feels the emotion that the other girl is putting into the song. The song already was emotional when Demi Lovato sand it but Quinn added something to it, a part of herself and you could almost taste the sorrow and despair, bitter and cold . She can't stand to see the girl so broken and again wonders what has changed. Quinn continues to play but this time she is looking at the Glee club members hidden behind the dark lenses of her sunglasses.
"As the smoke clears
I awaken and untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better to watch me while I bleed
All my windows still are broken but I'm standing on my feet
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper"
Quinn pulls off her sunglasses and looks at Rachel tears unshed, but when their eyes lock the tears run over and she begins to cry.
"Go run run run I'm gonna stay right here
Watch you disappear yeah
Go run run run yeah it's a long way down
But I'm closer to the clouds up here"
Rachel wants nothing more than to go an comfort her but Quinn looks down at the piano and channels everything, heart and soul into the end of the song
"You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Ohh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper."
As Quinn's voice fades Rachel watches as the other girl moves to silently go back to her chair, but then Brittany is there and then Santana and Sam. They gather Quinn in a group hug. Once they break the hug the other Glee club members hug Quinn and congratulate her on her performance. Rachel stands off to the side waiting for her chance. Rachel pulls Quinn into a hug and tries to convey how much she cares. When Rachel pulls away she keeps a hold of Quinn's hand and smiles, "Quinn you were always beautiful and strong. So whatever is going on I want you to know you can talk to me." Rachel searches the other girl's eyes for any kind of emotion but she is hard to read so Rachel heads back to her seat. She watches Quinn throughout the rest of Glee club but she seems lost in her own world of thought. This worries Rachel so she decides to call the blonde after Glee club, once she has gotten home. But in the back of her mind there is a little nagging voice that says, "Why do you care so much about Quinn? You have Finn." Rachel pushes that thought away. She loves Finn but for some reason she can't stop thinking about the blonde.
