Chapter 4
Despite what Santana and Brittany had said, Rachel couldn't keep herself from falling for Finn. It was hard not to sitting behind his cute head. Even though I wasn't allowed to like Finn, I was still allowed to look at him, and think about him, and talk to him? She called after Finn but a guy stopped her.
"Hey, you're the Africa girl, right?" a guy asked.
"Yea," Rachel answered.
"Artie Abrahams, captain of the McKinley Mathletes. We could get twice as much funding if we have a girl," The guy said.
"Yea, you'd be perfect for it," Mr. Shue added.
"So, think it over because we'd like to get jakets," Artie said.
"Ok," Rachel said.
Rachel was watching Finn play football. She waved. He acknowledged her presence and said "hey," Rachel wanted to engage in more conversation with him more, but then Quinn pulled up in her convertible with Santana and Brittany in tow.
"Get in. We're going shopping," Quinn explained to Rachel
Rachel went in the car. Quinn is like the Barbie doll I've never had. I've never seen anybody so glamorous.
When the girls got to the mall, they engaged in conversation.
"So how do you like McKinley?" Quinn asked. So far Rachel was having a good time.
"It's good. I think I'm joining the mathletes," she answered. The other 3 girls gasped.
"No no. You cannot do that. That is social suicide," Santana admonished.
"Damn. You are so lucky you have us to guide you," Quinn said. Rachel saw Tina working at a pottery shop. They exchanged looks. Rachel was fascinated by being in a mall. It reminded her of home. The girls spotted a familiar face. It was Puck, who tried to hit on Rachel before.
"Omigod. There's Puck," Santana said shocked.
"Where? Oh there he is," Brittany said.
"And he's with Lauren Zizes," Santana noticed.
"I heard they're going out," Brittany added.
Quinn was shocked.
"Puck's not going out with Lauren."
The girls didn't say anything.
"No, he cannot blow you off like that," Quinn said to Santana. Quinn asked Santana for her phone. Santana gave it to Quinn.
"You're not going to call him, right?" Santana said, although Puck was a douche, she didn't want to hurt his feelings. Quinn, however, had no problem putting him in his place. She prank called Lauren Zizes's mom.
"Hello," Lauren's mom said picking up.
"Hello, may I please speak to Lauren Zizes?" Quinn asked sarcastically.
"She's not home yet. Who is this?"
"This is Susan from Planned Parenthood. I have her test results. Can you have her call me as soon as she can? It's urgent. Thank you." Quinn said. She hung up and Lauren's mom fainted.
"She's not going out with anyone," Quinn said about Lauren. Santana and Brittany were laughing. The prank call was just priceless.
"Ok. That was so fetch," Santana said. They all kept laughing. Later the girls all went to Quinn's house, which turned out to be more or less a mansion.
"Your house is so nice," Rachel complimented Quinn.
"I know, right?" Quinn said.
As they walked in the door, Quinn made a grand entrance flanked by the other 3 girls. "I'm home," She said. She noticed her little sister playing.
"Hey Kylie," She said.
"Hey," Kylie said.
Mrs. Fabray walked in.
"Hey Mrs. Fabray, this is Rachel," Santana said introducing Rachel herself.
"Hey, welcome to our home," Mrs. Fabray said. She hugged Rachel. "Just want you to know if you need anything, you can come to me. Not like a regular mom, I'm a cool mom, right Quinn?"
"Please stopped talking," Quinn herself said. The girls went up to Quinn's room. Rachel was amazed because it was a big room.
"This is your room?" Rachel asked. "It was my parent's room, but I made them treat me," Quinn answered.
"Put on 98.6" Santana told Quinn. Quinn did as Santana asked. Rachel was looking around Quinn's room. Rachel noticed a picture of Quinn and Finn, Quinn's ex and Rachel's current crush. Rachel imagined herself at prom with Finn even though her friends said it was wrong.
The Unholy Trinity was looking the mirror being insecure.
"My hips are huge," Brittany said.
"I hate my calves," Santana added.
Last, but not least, Quinn said, "At least, you guys can wear halters, I've got man shoulders," She was the most concerned about her weight. She always wanted to look like a supermodel and have a perfect body. Rachel was surprised with the girls' insecurities. I used to think there was just fat and skinny. Apparently there can be a lot of things wrong with your body. Mrs. Fabray walked in with drinks. The girls took the drinks. Rachel wanted to make sure the drinks were non-alcoholic because she was underage.
"Is there alcohol in this?" She asked.
"No. Do you want any because if you're gonna drink, don't do it in the house," Mrs. Fabray answered.
"No thanks," Rachel said. Drinking, obviously, wasn't her thing. Mrs. Fabray was one of those cool moms who wanted to keep up with the latest trends. She meant well, but, unfortunately, she often wound up embarrassing Quinn. Quinn asked her mom to leave and her mom did as she asked. Brittany found a pink book on the shelf.
"OMG. I remember this," she said as she found it.
Quinn hadn't looked at it in a long time so she forgot she had it. "I haven't looked at that in forever," she said.
"Check it out Rachel. It's our burn book. We cut out girls' pictures from the year book and write little comments," The book was filled with mean comments. The Unholy Trinity was reviewing their comments and backstabbing.
"Tina Cohen-Chang. Dyke," Santana said when they came across her picture. Rachel was surprised at the backstabbing the other girls were doing. She wanted to stand up for her other friend but, also wanted to fit in with the Unholy Trinity too. She didn't say anything. The Unholy Trinity wasn't so bad, except for a little backstabbing.
"Who is that?" Santana asked pointing to a guy next to Tina.
"I think it's that kid Kurt," Brittany answered.
"Yea, he's almost too gay to function," Rachel said. It was the nicest mean comment she could think of. Quinn took note of Rachel's comment. "That's funny. Put that in there," she ordered the other 2. Oh no. Maybe that was only ok when Tina said it. Rachel didn't want to cause any harm to Kurt in the future but he'd never see this book.
