Ch. 7: Of Scandals and Love Declarations pt. 1


He lead her into the Woman's restroom, obviously because it was much cleaner then the guy's. Her backpack on his other arm as they entered.

"You don't have to do this." Rachel said, her voice almost inaudible.

Her vision remained on the mirror where she watched the blonde boy carefully removing the red slushy from her hair. After a few more seconds Sam looked up and through the mirror their eyes locked on each other.

"I swear Rach, today was the last time you were slushied." Sam stated hotly.

Confused at his statement, she waited for him to provide more clarification.

" Enough is enough, those asses won't know what hit 'em till it's too late." He said.

" It would be better if you just stayed out of this Sammy, I'm strong enough to fight my own battles. Plus those neanderthals will one day regret being so mean to me after they see Rachel Berry getting her first Tony for her work as Glinda or Elphaba on Wicked, while they are stuck in this cow town pumping gas for the rest of their pathetic lives!" Rachel said, without missing a beat and immediately alarmed that Sam would end up doing something that would put him at risk.

" You see? That's what pisses me off the most Rae! You shouldn't have to deal with getting slushied or bothered to bring extra clothes in case you do." Sam said angrily, only calming down when Rachel got on her tippy toes to kiss his left cheek.

" It is what is and neither you or myself can do anything about it. Sadly, it's the way things work at William Mckinley since I could remember. So please don't do anything stupid, you are already loosing popularity by being around me, I don't want those imbeciles slushing you two." Rachel sighed, understanding where he was coming from but knowing that it was hopeless.

" Not if I can help it, from now on Rachel Berry has someone to protect her. Consider me your own personal bodyguard." Sam said happily and smiled at the petite girl.


On the other side of the school, Quinn, dressed in her Cheerio uniform was waiting for Karofsky to meet her. She could not wait to hear about part one of her plan. Suddenly, she heard a twig snapped and reflexively, she turned around.

"Did you do as you were told?" the blonde girl asked, quickly composing herself and getting rid of the fear she had experienced.

"Yeah, she was drenched by the time we were done with her." Karofsky answered and smirked as he showed the picture that they had taken of Rachel all covered in slushy.

"Well done, now you can go back and hide in Narnia, I'll keep you posted if I need anything else." Quinn stated, silently telling the closeted jock that now was the time for him to leave.

Not wanting to be seen with Karofsky by the rest of the student body , she started to walk before the bell rang when she stopped in her tracks.

"What?" She muttered, her eyes giving that ice cold glare that worked so well for intimidation.

"Thought I'd let you know that I saw Trouty Mouth helping her out." David confessed and walked off.

Well see how much this new relationship, or whatever you want to call it Sam had with Rachel will last for...

Quinn: Meet me by the old locker rooms in 10 minutes, don't be late!


"Finn would have never done that for me." Rachel said and looking down.

"Don't compare me to Frankenteen, besides both of us liking football and Quinn, we have nothing else in common." Said said, getting a bit agitated.

"I'm sorry, you're right though, I should not be comparing you with him. You're actually a good friend." Rachel apologized and looked down, suddenly finding her nails quite interesting.

"Right, just a friend and nothing more." Sam quietly said thinking Rachel would not here him since he was now by the trashcan while she was still by the sink and mirrors.

" What is that supposed to mean?" She asked confused.

"Well you're the one that kiss me twice and now I'm suppose to believe that you just want us to be friends?" Sam asked, not being able to keep his emotions in check.

"You can't possibly be saying what I think you're saying Sam. You're... confused, that's it! That can be the only reasonable explanation!" She exclaimed frantically.

"Why the hell not Rachel, is it too hard to believe that I may actually like you?" He questioned angrily.

"Yes! You and I Sam are complete opposites. While in some cases opposites do attract, that can't be case for you and me." Rachel said, her hands holding onto the sink with a strong grip.

"Are you serious? Did you just use me to get under Finn's skin then?" Sam interrogated her.

" No, it was impulsive of me to just kiss you like that and I'm not pretty or popular like Quinn; why would I a guy like you settle for plain old me?" Rachel confessed, the last part of her answer slightly lower.

"Kiss me right now and then tell me if don't feel anything." Sam said all of a sudden.

Without waiting for an answer, Sam closed what was left of space between them and captured Rachel's warm peck on the lips that quickly escalated into a kiss that was full of passion and yearning. Rachel responded into the kiss by trying to go a little farther and having her tongue inside Sam's mouth. Sam placed both of his hands on Rachel's hips to hold her firmly in place while she moved hers to his neck. The lack of air caused them to stop their make out session and finally breath.

"Now can you honestly say that you felt nothing after kissing me?" Sam asked, looking down at Rachel as he waited for answer.

" I could." Rachel stated and he immediately frowned.

"But then I'd just be lying." She continued and let out a smile.

"Had me worried for a second." was all Sam said before they began round two of their make out session.

"Will"

"You"

"be"

"my"

"girlfriend?"

Sam said in between kisses.


" To what do I owe the pleasure of hearing from you Quinn Fabray?" asked that nasally voice of Jacob Ben Israel.

" I have a job for you, here are some pictures I want you to use of Rachel Berry, get creative." She muttered and gave the boy an envelope of pictures.

"My oh my, she is smokin'!" Jewfro exclaimed at the same time Quinn rolled her eyes.

" You can keep the pictures and I'll pay you $30 bucks for this little favor. But make it really embarrassing. I want Rachel Barbra Berry to cry and be so humiliated she will leave the school!" the Ice Queen finally said and waited to hear the boy's answer.

"I'm in, by when do you want this?" he asked.

" Have it ready and all set up to play at the assembly today at 2." She answered and walked away.

"And Jacob, don't get caught cause you will be the only one taking the fall." Quinn said with her back to the boy.


"Yes, we'll give what we have right now a try then!" Rachel said happily.

Sam engulfed her in a hug and spun her around, almost slipping in the puddle of the melted slushie.

"Whoa there, don't get to excited." Rachel said and kissed him on the lips while still being up in the air.

They were about to continue kissing when the door to the bathroom opened up to reveal Brittany. She looked between the two with a confused expression.

"Did I walked into the boy's bathroom? But that doesn't make sense cause why would you be in this bathroom Rachel..." the blonde asked, more to herself then to the "new" couple.

"Brittany hun, you got it right this time, Sam was dropping of my clothes and was just leaving." Rachel said to the blonde and mouthed ''We'll talk later'' to Sam.

Sam blew her a kiss, she pretended to catch it. Sam just smiled in a goofy way and walked out of the bathroom.
