Was I the only one that noticed Rachel and Quinn dancing together and then holding hands at the end? It made me smile so here are some of the missing scenes from the episode :) Enjoy! Some Faberry Friendship with some Sam/Puck bromance Enjoy :) (Puckleberry and Sam/Quinn implied as well)
"Let's celebrate our way, Rachel you want the solo?" Schue asked.
Rachel shook her head, "Thank you, Mr. Schue but I don't feel like a solo today. I think it should go to the unsung heros of sectionals, Mercedes and Tina."
Quinn's mouth dropped open, in shock even as Mercedes said, "You don't have to ask me twice"
Rachel looked down at the ground and Quinn knew something was terribly wrong.
She then looked up at Finn and saw he refused to look at Rachel, and now she was confused because wasn't it him that slept with Santana and needed to beg for forgiveness or something?
She slowly followed the group to the auditorium, making it so she was walking beside Rachel, who didn't seem to notice her new companion.
"Hey" The cheerio said, getting her attention.
"Hello" Rachel replied shortly not even looking at her.
"What's up?" Quinn asked, knowing something was seriously wrong when Rachel spoke in one word sentences.
"I don't know what you mean."
Rolling her eyes, Quinn held the door open as they walked through and said, "Sure you don't. Look whatever it is, don't let it get you down. Just go up there, sing your heart out and if you still are upset afterwards, we'll talk about it, deal?"
Rachel cocked an eyebrow at her because seriously, first Noah Puckerman was nice to her and her and Kurt became friends, now Quinn? This was definitely a strange week. What next, Santana and Brit going to ask her to become a cheerio? but all she asked was, "Why are you being nice to me?"
"Because I know what it feels like to be shunned by a boy I thought I loved and wish I had someone to talk about it back then. Plus everyone needs a friend, midget."
Rachel gave her the little smile she was aiming for even as she glared at her, "I'm not a midget, I'm vertically challenged."
"More like fun sized" Puck chimed in as he heard the tail end of the girls conversation, causing Rachel to blush and Quinn to laugh even as she grabbed her hand and dragged her to the stage for the performance.
And at the end, when it was the two of them in the corner dancing their hearts out and she looked over and saw how happy Rachel looked, she felt proud of herself for being able to get that smile back on the girls face.
It was ending and everyone was migrating to the center when she felt Rachel grab her hand and drag her to meet them.
Puck gave her a tiny smile, that she'd only seen a couple of times from him, when he saw the girl's linked hands before giving Rachel a grin and throwing his arm around Finn.
Quinn squeezed Rachel's hand before letting go and was happy to see her join in the group hug and even happier to feel her link arms with her after the performance, not saying anything just walking despite the glares coming from Santana and Finn.
They walked arm and arm to the lockers and Quinn asked to see Rachel's phone. Rachel handed it to her and she typed her number in and then sent herself a text from Rachel's phone so she had her number.
"We're going to the mall tonight, getting rid of those awful sweaters and having some fun, then you're going to tell me all about what tall, clumsy, and dumb did and we're going to figure out what to do about it." She informed Rachel.
"We are?" Rachel asked, as she took back the offered phone and saw the new number and gave it a small smile.
"Yes, we are and you're also going to tell me why Puckerman's suddenly walking with you in the halls and sticking up for you, not to mention the looks he was shooting you during that performance."
"Oh.. I didn't mean to upset you, um.." Rachel stumbled.
"Midget! Chill! I'm not upset. I'm intrigued, so let's go."
Rachel nodded quickly, allowing Quinn to link their arms together and lead her out to her car where the unlikely friends headed off to have a fun trip and gab fest, neither seeing the two grinning jocks watching their girls leave.
"That will be an interesting alliance" Sam said, with a grin.
"Dude, you know those two are totally going to rule this school now that their friends right? Not to mention the entire planet if they want." Puck replied, shaking his head even as he smirked. He didn't expect Q to actually pay attention to him when he told her to stop being a fuckin' bitch and pay attention to how Berry got treated by everyone if she wanted to figure out why she was like she was but he was glad the girl did. Berry needed someone like the head bitch to be on her side. Plus Q wouldn't let her go back to Finn so that was a bonus.
"Yeah, good thing they're with us, huh?" Sam asked, "or wait, are you and Rach?"
"Not yet but after today we will be" Puck replied, before waving, as he walked off. She was totally his, she just didn't know it yet but that'll be fixed soon.
