Hey guys, I learnt that a week of school is important and so is sleep. I had no idea what they were teaching and still had the heart to be falling asleep in class. Even though that has nothing to do with the story I just wanted the people in school to know that. I learnt my lesson (probably) so you should learn it too. On to the story!
Rachel POV
I wake up from my dream of hazel eyes and green scenery feeling refreshed. I was finally able to catch up on some sleep. I take my books out of my bag and something falls out, it's the note. I re-read it and yesterday's events come back to me along with the people Santana, Finn and Quinn.
Quinn was being all sweet, kind and adorable... I mean caring, Finn was being Finn and Santana wasn't actually Santana, but I think it should count because her voice was in my head torturing me. Hmm, I wonder if she can do anything to help me.
I now find myself standing at Santana's front door waiting for her to open it.
"There's no one in there Berry." I hear from right behind me causing my heart to try and jump out of my chest.
"Jesus, Santana don't do that, I almost died just now! First Quinn now you, what's with you people and giving me heart attacks?
"Oh, I'm sorry." She says sarcastically as she passes me to open the door. "Why are you in front of my house?"
"I wanted to talk to you."
"Why me, isn't there some other poor soul you have to torture?"She asks
"It's about what you said the other day." I reply.
"I say a lot of things Berry, you're going to have to be more specific than that." She says with a smirk.
"When I was here before." I say hoping she knows what I mean, but of course it's not that easy.
"Ok, and?" She asks as she sits and I follow her lead.
"We were kind of arguing about Finn."
"No we weren't, I wasn't doing it because of him."
"Why did you do it then?"
"I bitch for a living. Why not argue?" She says with a shrug.
I stare at her for a moment. "Um... ok. So you just argue for fun?"
"Yeah, but that doesn't stop what I say from being true." She says and smirks again.
That smirk is what unnerves me and the way she's focused on me observing every move I make isn't helping. You can never tell what she's planning or just how much she knows.
"I know you're itching to ask Berry, if you're lucky I might answer. But in case you didn't know curiosity killed the cat." She says with a smile and I feel shivers down my spine. It may just be my sixth sense but I have a feeling that she always knows more than she lets on.
I begin to play with my fingers and nervousness settles in my stomach. I try to form questions in my head but the task is extremely hard because I can feel her staring at me.
"Berry it's Saturday, so there is a limited amount of time you have to sit there and do nothing. I have a life you know."
I into her eyes and it may be my imagination but I can feel her in my head. "How much do you know?" I ask.
"That's a very vague question there." She says
"You know that there's something bothering me whenever I try to look at Finn, don't you?"
"Yeah."
I can feel myself becoming angry. "You know it's your fault."
"How is it my fault?" she asks
"If you never said anything none of this would be happening. I'm losing sleep and am in dazes because of this." I reply as I get up.
"All I did was tell the truth." She says calmly as she stares me down and gets up. "You want to know why you're losing sleep? Why those simple words are affecting you so much?" She asks as she steps closer.
I feel like prey being stalked by a lion. Wait Quinn's more of a lion so Santana's a panther, a black panther. I don't even notice until my back touches the wall that I was stepping back as she stepped forward. She traps me between her hands and then she smiles and says. "It's because you don't love Finn as much as you think you do, you wouldn't be here if you did."
I stand there frozen, unable to move and I can feel her studying me.
"Rachel?" I watch as she waves her hand in front of my face but my body doesn't respond. The next thing she does is unexpected but completely Santana like, she slaps me, still no response. She walks away and seconds later I hear her voice.
Santana POV
I walk into the kitchen and call Quinn, she's so going to kill me.
"Hello." She answers
"I need you help but you have to promise not to kill me when I tell you."
"What did you do? You didn't kill someone did you?" She asks jokingly
"No I didn't"
"Then tell me what happened."
"Rachel came over-" I say
"What? Why would she do that?" She asks out of surprise
"She came looking for answers-" I continue
"What did you tell her?" She asks on edge.
"Ok, I know I'm asking for help and everything but if you cut me off one more time I'm hanging up and calling someone else."
"Sorry, continue."
"She started blaming me for her life going to shit, so I told her that she doesn't really love Finn and I think I broke her."
"Why would you do that?! You know she eats, sleeps and breathe Finn, Oh my God, she went into shock didn't she? I'm coming over right now, I'll kill you if she doesn't go back to normal." She says all in one breath before she hangs up.
~Less Than 5min Later~
"Damn Quinn, you ran it here?" I say when she passes the doorway.
She reappears at the door. "I was jogging when you called. Where's Rachel? She asks.
"There." I say as I point to a Rachel whose mind was still AWOL.
She moves closer to her. "How long has she been like this?" she asks.
"About 5 or 6 minutes." I reply.
"Rachel, are you okay?" She asks then turns to me. "What happened to her face?" She asks.
I shrug my shoulders knowing that it's my fault her right cheek is turning red. No need to add fuel to the fire that she was going to burn me over.
I watch as Quinn simply touches her cheek and Rachel turns back to normal. Of course, I slap her and nothing happens but Quinn touches her and everything is back to normal. How can they not see... not be able to tell what they do to each other.
I watch as Quinn leads Rachel to the chair and says. "I think you should sit and rest."
Rachel nods in response.
"Rachel I'm sorry, for... I don't even know what to call whatever that was but I'm sorry for causing it. It's just that you reminded me of myself, I noticed what I really wanted when it was already gone. I don't want that to happen to you, but I have to admit I was wrong." I see them both staring at me in shock. I can practically see their thoughts on how Santana Lopez doesn't apologize.
"I'll go get you some water." I say and get up. I towards the kitchen and glance back at them and think to myself, that person would never leave you.
They spent the rest of the day at Santana's house and were later joined by Puck. Everything went back to normal. Rachel completely forgot she had a re-date with Finn because he felt Santana ruined the last one.
