Disclaimer: If I owned Glee, Rachel would never get heartbroken.
They all headed to a café, close to Rachel's house to have breakfast and discuss everything that happened last night, but to everyone's surprise Rachel was not talking or saying anything, or complaining how Santana practically took advantage of her when she was drunk to have a laugh. Nothing. There were so many thoughts in her mind now; thoughts that were in the back of her mind until last night but they were the only thing she could think of.
Mercedes was now snapping her fingers in front of Rachel's face.
"Earth calling Rachel. Are you there? If you can hear me blink!"
"Yeah. Yeah I'm here don't worry" Rachel giggled, "I'm just thinking silently. Too much information to process…"
"Thinking silently? Since when?" Kurt was surprised
"You complain when I'm talking, and now you are complaining when I'm not talking. What am I supposed to do? Disappear?" Rachel complained.
"Talk. But don't overdo it!" Puck said.
Rachel gave him a dangerous glance; Puck thought for a moment that Rachel was going to kill him or something. Anyway she gave no attention to her friends comments and she got back to her thoughts quickly. Was she supposed to call Jesse? Or just ignore him and make him suffer to pay back for all that happened last year?
Rachel knew that now, even though not officially yet, she was single. Finn acted like an asshole last night and Rachel was so mad at him that she could never face him again. Not even an apology would save him for what he did.
They finished their "Victory" breakfast as they called it and everyone headed back to their houses. Rachel on her way back to hers, was trying to make some decisions. Once she opened the door to her house, and passed the living room, the scene when Jesse was punching Finn to defend her came into her mind. And that's when she decided that she should call Jesse St. James. She knew that they may have nothing in common anymore, but she had to get some answers.
She rushed upstairs to her bedroom, grabbed her phone and sent a text to Jesse.
"What do you want from me St. James? I thought we had nothing to discuss anymore. All you had to say were said with that very last egg you broke on my forehead"
Jesse replied in less than a minute. He must have been waiting for this message or call for some time.
"I'm willing to explain everything. Please accept my invitation for a coffee. Starbucks at 5? Please?"
Rachel replied in seconds.
"Fine. And you better have really good explanations."
He now had a wide grin on his face, and raised his hopes because he knew that after explaining everything, Rachel would forgive him.
Kurt and Mercedes were walking home together and it was a good 30-minute walk from the café, so they were talking for various things
"Am I the only who wonders what the hell is Jesse doing back in Vocal Adrenaline?" Kurt asked.
"Hell no you're not. But I guess that he is repeating his last year so that he can have another National title or something? Who knows?"
"And what shall we do with Rachel? I know her very well. She won't last a second if JsJ confesses his love to her. Again. Although she won't admit it, she spent almost a year thinking about him, and I know that because I was the only one who ever had a talk with her after she broke up with him"
" I don't know now Kurt, I'll figure something out, but right now I have a hangover, and I'm in a huge need for sleep, ON A BED!"
They now go their ways to their homes. Wondering.
Four hours later Rachel was still wondering if it was a good idea to meet with Jesse. But she didn't have anything to lose so she was now walking to Starbucks 3 blocks from her house.
She goes in, looking around to see him and there he is, sitting in a corner, with his always perfect hair. Their eyes met. And in his eyes she could see the sparkle, that sparkle that made her fall in love with him the first time.
She walked towards him. He tried to give her a welcome hug, but Rachel practically pushed him away in her own cute way.
"Not even think about it Jesse St. James" She said.
"I'm sorry, but please sit down, we have a lot of things to discuss" Jesse was a bit hurt by Rachel's attitude but his ego wouldn't let him show it. He put on his showface and was now facing Rachel.
"Make it fast. I have better things to do" Rachel looked frustrated.
Jesse was now wondering whether Rachel really had something to do or she was just very annoyed to be with him.
"I'll begin with a really big SORRY, Rachel"
"Yeah, ok now I forgive you" She said sarcastically
"I'll pretend like I didn't hear the sarcasm, Rachel" He slightly smiled, but he could see that Rachel was not very pleased by anything so far, her eyes were cutting through him like knives. "I'm gonna talk to you, and I want you to listen. I was anticipating this meeting for months, until I saw you at Regionals and then I knew I couldn't hold it anymore"
"Is it like a hobby Jesse? To come back to me every time a competition finishes?"
"Rachel, Stop! Just listen to me" He was frustrated but he was still kind of stunned by Rachel. She didn't change a bit.
"So I'll start from the eggs, I know that you don't really want to remember anything but anyway I have to explain."
He explained to her everything, how he loved her, but after the "Run, Joey Run" thing he knew that maybe her feelings weren't the same as his. He told her about how Shelby made him "chase" her and drive Rachel to her. He explained how UCLA was going to wait another year because Shelby wanted him in Vocal Adrenaline so that it would be their last year in it together. Everything.
"I Loved You Rachel, I loved you like I never loved anyone else, but you hurt me" A tear was now running on his cheek, he couldn't hold it back.
Rachel was more in a disbelief state than sad or anything. She loved him, and she was still in love with him. All this confessions where overwhelming.
"Rachel say something. This silence is killing me"
"I just have one question Jesse. Why did you come back now? Why now?"
"Because I wanted to explain everything that happened to you, I thought that I would never see you again, but when I saw you on stage last night I just couldn't help it anymore. I knew we had to make this conversation. I love you Rachel"
"No Jesse you don't. And you don't believe what you are saying. You hurt me, and I know you'll do it again, and again if I gave you even the tiniest chance" Rachel couldn't hold back her tears. She was lying to herself. "This must come to an end Jesse. Goodbye, and don't try to talk to me again" She stood up and stormed out of the café.
Tears still in her eyes, she turns back only to realize that Jesse is running after her.
He grabs her by her arm "Please Rachel, give me one more chance. I want to prove myself to you and to everyone, that I'm the best for you. You know it."
"Leave me alone Jesse, just get out of my life like you did before, I'm sure you know how to do it again. I can never trust you again" And she ran to her car, leaving him in the middle of the road, like a statue standing there motionless.
Rachel parked her car along the sidewalk, and got back home. Her dads were already there, she didn't want them to see her crying so she ran upstairs to her bedroom grabbed her pillow, and started crying again.
She couldn't get over him but she couldn't let him back in her life only to leave again breaking her heart and an egg on her forehead.
After a lot of crying she was almost falling asleep, when she received a message…
Haaaa cliffhanger till next chapter! Who will be on the phone? You decide! Not really lol but I have two persons in mind and I'd like to know what you think!
