Rescue Me, Love Me, Mr Hudson

Chapter six

The rest of the weekend was slow, and Finn drove Rachel back home late Sunday evening before her parents returned home. She thanked him with a simple, gentle kiss on his cheek before she skipped inside. He watched her, making sure that she actually went inside, so he knew she was safe. Rachel showered and slipped into something more comfy for her parent's arrival, she completed all her homework and prepared herself dinner. She was just straining the pasta when her parents walked in, dragging their luggage with them. They ignored her, leaving their luggage at the bottom of the stairs and they went upstairs to bed. Rachel ate her dinner alone, flicking through TV channels, there was nothing on, there never was on a Sunday night. She made sure that the house was immaculate before turning herself in for the night. She found it difficult to sleep without Finn's arms around her, and had to settle for wrapping her arms around herself, humming herself to sleep.

When Rachel awoke early the next morning, sun was edging through the gap between her curtains; it felt like a good day. Breakfast was a family affair, but it was silent, both her parents left for work, without a word, or a goodbye kiss for their daughter. Rachel sighed, and decided on a simple outfit for the day, Nothing to fancy, nothing to casual. Santana Lopez, captain of the cheerio's and Rachel's best friend, picked Rachel up for school, she knew something was new about her, but she couldn't pin point exactly what, and if Santana couldn't get it out of her, then she would break.

"Where were you all weekend?" Santana instantly quizzed as Rachel climbed into the car, her long, elegant fingers tapping on the steering wheel. Rachel suddenly looked at Santana, her face surprised. Clue one that she was about to lie to her. Rachel bit her lip, and exhaled, that was clue two.

"I was with…erm…family," Rachel's hesitant pause was the third clue of Rachel's failure to lie. Santana looked at her best friend, and drove away from the house before continuing her assault of questions.

"Rachel, you know you cannot lie to me, so just fucking spill now!" Santana told her, when they were pulling into the school parking lot. Rachel froze in her seat, before bowing her head; she knew she had to tell Santana, she trusted Santana.

"Promise me you won't flip out, judge me, hate me, or leave me." Rachel was very almost crying, but she didn't know why. She wasn't ashamed of what she did, far from it, she was happy, it's just, she was scared ,scared of what Santana would say to her, do to her. Santana knew that this was serious shit when Rachel said that.

"I promise, Rach' to all of it." Santana took Rachel's hand, patiently waiting for Rachel to tell her what had happened.

Rachel exhaled quickly, calming herself.

"I was with Finn." Those four words were the hardest four words she'd ever said in her life. Santana raised an eyebrow, she only knew one Finn, and that Finn was definitely out of bounds, but with the way that Rachel couldn't even look at Santana, her worst fears were confirmed.

"Finn, as in Finn Hudson?" Santana said carefully, holding back her anger, as Rachel nodded. Santana let out an angry sigh.

"Rach' look at me," Santana needed to be Rachel's best friend, more than anything right now, "did you two…you know…?" Santana wanted to be blunt, she was usually blunt, but she knew she had to be sensitive, this is was serious. Rachel looked up at Santana and her eyes revealed everything. Tuning out of the fact, he was a teacher; Santana threw her arms around Rachel.

"Bitch, you finally lost your V card."

That made Rachel laugh, that was what she needed. Santana was going to let it go, with Rachel but Finn had it coming like an unseen hurricane. Santana walked Rachel to her first lesson, and then disappeared of to Cheer practise. Santana couldn't concentrate on the routine; she was too busy thinking about ways to murder that son-of-a-bitch teacher.

"San' is something bothering you?" Coach said, bitterly, when she realised Santana's performance was lacking.

Santana looked at coach Sylvester with a devious smile, which Coach liked the look of.

"Whatever you have to do, go do," Sue Sylvester was very unorthodox with the way she taught/ coached but she got the job done. Santana marched through the corridors, straight for Mr Hudson's office. She burst in without even knocking; he looked up from the papers he was marking.

"Ms Lopez, what is the problem?"

Santana hated that he was so calm, so ok with everything. She slammed the door closed, and glared at him. Finn looked at her, then realised what was wrong.

"How dare you? How dare you? She's a student!" Santana wanted to shout but she knew she couldn't. She was prepared to ruin her best friend's reputation as well as this teacher. Finn froze, and placed the pen on the table.

"Take a seat," he offered, trying to calm her down, he knew this could get very messy. Santana Lopez was known for causing chaos of the highest degree.

"No, I will not take a seat. You need to leave. You need to resign and leave, this is not good for her, and she doesn't need you!" Santana let her emotions overflow into this rant. Rachel couldn't be sleeping with him, not when Santana loved her so much…..
