Shelby's POV

I try to keep my composure as I storm over to Jesse's house. As I turn a corner, I see a car coming right towards me. I quickly slam on the brakes and swerve just in time to avoid the car making contact with mine. I curse under my breath and just sit in the car for a moment, trying to get over the shock. I see the owner of the car grind to a halt and get out of the car.

"At least he's going to come and see that I'm okay" I sigh to myself.

His eyes meet mine and I instantly go cold. The eyes staring back at me belong to one other than Jesse. How dare he! I manage to scramble out of the car and stare at him, each of us daring the other to speak.

"I thought you would be with Rachel" he spits out

"You ... you hurt my daughter" I manage to say "You have no idea how broken she is, how much of an impact you've had on my innocent little girl"

Jesse starts laughing evilly and I try to restrain myself from kicking his massive head in.

"You didn't even care about her till I found her for you" he spits angrily "She aint so innocent now bitch. Your just gonna use her like you used me. She's just a silly little whore"

As soon as Jesse finishes his speech, I see red. How dare he try to deliberately hurt me and take my daughters innocence? Not realising that a crowd has gathered, we start to fight. He kicks me square in the eye, which makes me recoil in pain. I aim for him and am about to kick when I feel someone gently restraining me and watch someone else tackle Jesse to the ground.

"Ermm ... Miss Corcoran? You okay?" a soft voice asks me as a mohawked boy and a very tall boy in a football jersey restrain Jesse, the third of them calling the police. A small Latina is holding my arms still, with the person who spoke to me stood next to her, her blonde hair sprawled across her shoulders

"I should be okay" I reply before turning to the other girl "Thanks" I smile at her

"No problem, that jackass needs to learn a lesson" she sighs "Besides, me and B were just heading to yours to see Rachel"

"Oh you must be Santana and Brittany then? Rachel's been looking forward to seeing you" I say

Brittany just smiles widely at me and links arms with Santana

"Come on Miss, we'll take you back if you want?" she asks me politely

"Please, call me Shelby" I smile "And thanks"

We head to their car and as I get in my phone starts ringing. I check the caller ID and open my phone.

"Hi Will" I say

"Hey, just heard about that almost car crash you were in, I hope your okay" he says sweetly

"Thanks for the concern Will, but I'm fine honestly" I reply

"I'm glad. Got to go, Emma is calling" he says and I feel a pang of guilt

"But ... You and I... We had dinner ..." I stumble over my words

"Shelby that wasn't a date, Quinn just arranged it to cheer you up and I agreed. Oh god, you thought ..." he starts

"No, no ..." I whimper slightly "Go have fun with Emma"

"See you later, okay" He says and hangs the phone up

"You okay back there?" asks Santana

"Yeah .. I guess" I sigh, trying to work things out in my mind ...


A/N hope everyone enjoyed that, next few chapters will feature a few reactions to Rachel and Quinn's makeout session and also Shelby trying to win Will back!
