Chapter Four
Flashback
"I'm Rachel, Rachel Berry," I said to the newest member of the glee club. "You were really good,"
"I'm Sunshine," she said, "And you really think that I'm good,"
"With a little training you could be amazing, but yes, you are good," I said, "Do you have a free period after lunch,"
"Yes," she said checking her schedule.
"I do to," I said. "Would you like to come back to my place then, we can practice,"
Lunch ended and we climbed into her car, I didn't have a car and I gave her directions, we arrived and for a moment she didn't say anything, "You've brought me to a crack house," she suddenly yelled, "I should have known you'd do something like this, they all told me not to come,"
"Please, just give me a chance to explain," I said.
"Explain what," she said. "You've brought me to the most vile part of Lima, what kind of person are you, get out of my car,"
"How will I get back to school," I said.
"I don't give a shit," she said.
Present Day
"She just left you there," said Noah angrily,
"I wasn't in any real danger," I said. "It was my house, and I knew no one was in,"
"Wait you lived in that crack house on Mason's Street (random name)," said Noah. "Why didn't you say anything,"
"I was going to," I said. "But by the time I'd gotten back to school, she'd spun a load of bull shit, and no one gave me the chance,"
Continue FlashbackI was shivering by the time I got back to school, just over an hour later, I had to go the long way since there were no footpaths on the main road, I got back just in time for glee, where I was grabbed by a very angry Tina, they pulled me into the choir room and everyone in the room glared at me. "What," I said.
"Is that all you have to say," said Tina with surprisingly no stutter. I then noticed Sunshine, with Mercedes arms wrapped around her she was 'crying'.
"What's going on guys," said Mr Schue, "What's Rachel done now,"
"She took Sunshine to a crack house," said Tina.
"Rachel," said Mr Schue in a voice barely containing his anger, "Is this true,"
"Yes but," I said I felt tears in my eyes I was scared of his anger,
"No buts," he said,"I knew you were desperate for the spotlight, but this is pathetic," Mr Schue yelled. I couldn't look at him, if I did my tears would fall and they would torture me even more. "I have never been so horrified in my life," said Sunshine, "Why would you send me to a place like that,"
"Because she's a self centred bitch who can't stand anyone being better than her," said Mr Schue. "So much so that she won't even look at me when I'm talking to her,"
I finally looked up, "Oh she thinks that if she acts like she's the victim she'll get sympathy," he said. "Stop with the crocodile tears, they might work on your daddies but they won't here, just do us all a favour and leave, we don't want someone like you in our club,"
"Please don't kick me out," I said feeling the tears finally begin to fall.
"Oh it speaks," Mr Schue. "It's too late to defend yourself,"
"Please I'll do anything," I said,
"If you don't go now, I will throw you out," said Mr Schue he began to walk towards me.
I flinched, waiting for a hand to make contact with my face, "Okay, I'll go," I said my voice shaking with fear and sadness. "I apologise for what I've done, truly I do, I just wish you'd have given me a chance to explain, I hope you all do well in the competitions you all deserve it," I walked out of the room and could hear them talking about me.
"I'm so glad she's gone," said Mercedes. "I can finally get solos,"
"Yes all of you will be getting more solos," said Mr Schue.
"But Rachel hasn't had any for months," said Brittany.
"Brit," said Santana. "Manhands isn't here anymore, we don't need to care about that,"
"She looked so sad," said Brittany. "I wanted to hug her,"
"She's had acting training Brittany, she knows how to behave in order to get what she wants," said Mr Schue. "Now then...,"
To make matters worse, when I got home, my parents refused to let me into the house, and I got soaking wet as rain began to pour. I wiped at my tears, and pulled out my phone, I called up the three people I knew would help, at least I hoped they would...
