Gosh! You guys are sooo cute! How could I not continue with this story when you are so adorable!
Your reviews and messages were totally sweet Thanks so much!
So here is the next chapter ;)
"Look, Rachel! I will not hurt you or anything…I totally deserved what you did! I was a bitch to you and everyone else.
I'll try to change…and…
I talked to Mr. Shue! He won't call our parents." Santana had immediately approached Rachel when the petit girl had entered the gym with Puck.
"Well thank you, Santana" the Jewish girl said smilingly.
"But we have to perform a song together…tomorrow-night!" Santana added.
"God, I have already really great ideas!" Rachel beamed.
The two girls linked arms and left a totally confused Noah Puckerman behind.
"Chicks…" he sighed and walked towards Finn, Danielle, Blaine and Kurt.
"What's with Rach and Satan?" Finn asked worriedly.
"Seems as if they are best friends now! They are working on a performance together." Puck sat down next to Blaine and grabbed a water bottle: "I mean…Apparently everything that ever happened between them is forgiven and forgotten! It's as if all the slushies and insults never occurred."
"Looks like you are a bit mad about that. What's it to you, Puck?" Kurt asked puzzled.
"Nothing!" the Jewish boy said dryly.
Kurt caught a meaningful gaze from his boyfriend, who nodded slightly towards Finn and then shook his head.
Could there really be more than just…well Kurt couldn't find a fitting word to describe Rachel and Puck's relationship. They weren't actual friends. They've never been.
But seeing Puck like this made Kurt consider this might have changed.
He was definitely going to find out what was going on with his little best friend.
"Okay! You have to move your feet this way…Got it?" Brittany was helping Santana and Rachel to learn a fitting choreography for their performance.
"I can't do this shit!" Santana shouted in rage.
"You can! Just believe in you awesomeness!" the blond Cheerio smiled at her.
Rachel and Santana laughed and tried the dance-step again…successfully!
"Yes!" all three of them yelled and hugged each other.
"We are going to blow them away!" Rachel exclaimed cheerfully.
"But please don't blow too much…I don't want to be blown into another world like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz!" Brittany told them shyly.
"Ohhh, Brit!" Santana laughingly enfolded Brittany into her arms: "I would never make you disappear. You know how much I love you."
That was when it hit Rachel.
Santana didn't mean that she loved Brittany in the kind of way that Rachel loved Kurt or Blaine…but in the kind of way that she loved Finn. Well, she had loved him.
The petite brunet decided that she would help her two new friends to bond in a way they were meant to.
"Okay, girls! Let's just go through the performance once again and I think we'll be awesome tomorrow!" Santana grinned and winked at Brittany.
It was 7pm at the following day. Just an hour until they had to meet up at the auditorium and Blaine was doing the dishes with his sister. They had just finished dinner (Thai from the delivery-service!).
"So how do you like it here?" Blaine asked his little sister.
"I love it! It's great. Everyone is so nice, Mr. Shuester is such a great teacher and Finn is an amazing duet partner."
Blaine frowned: "Don't tell me you have a crush on him…pleeeease don't tell me that!"
"Don't be ridiculous, Blaine! He's got a girlfriend who I really like and Finn is just very very nice and polite to me."
Danny started to dry up the dishes.
Blaine stopped her by grabbing her hand and looked intensively into her eyes: "You know just as well as me that they are going through a rough chapter in their relationship! There's something wrong with them. I don't know what and I actually don't want to, because that's something between Rachel and Finn. But you have to promise me that you don't get involved into that drama. You've been heartbroken enough lately, okay? Leave them alone!
I don't want Finn to promise you to break up with Rachel and then later on dump you like that asshole you called your last-boyfriend. Got that?"
"You're hurting me!" Danielle said loudly and tried to loosen Blaine's grip around her arm.
"PROMISE ME!" he said angrily.
"I promise! Now let go of me!" she shrieked.
Blaine let go and Danielle ran out of the kitchen immediately.
"Damn it…" Blaine rubbed his hands over his face in frustration.
"Hey, Hot-Stuff!" Kurt just entered the room.
"Who are you talking to? The only guy I can see in here is a total jerk!" Blaine sat down on a chair.
"What's wrong?" his boyfriend asked concerned while sitting down on the opposite side.
"I was really mean to Danny." He rested his head against his hands.
Kurt patted his back: "I'm sure it wasn't that bad. You are the nicest and politest boy I know. And I'm not just saying that because you are my boyfriend."
"No! I was a total…DICK!" Blaine shouted.
Kurt was taken aback by the Warbler's outburst.
"See…I told her that I don't want her to get too close to Finn because I'm sure she has a crush on him. I know what my sister looks like when she has the hots for someone. And with everything that's going on between Finchel right now I definitely don't want Danny within reach of another heartbreak. She is my baby sister!
God… I promised to look out for her and now I've hurt her myself.
I bruised her arm, Kurt! I was so damn angry that I didn't notice how hard my grip was! I can't believe that I did something like that! She hates me now…"
Tears started to fall down Blaine's cheeks.
"Don't say that! Sure…what you did was more than wrong. But Danielle could never hate you. She loves you more than anything. I've never seen anyone been so fond of somebody like Danny is of you. Give her a while to calm down and then she's going to be back and love you just as much as she always has. Okay? Now don't worry any longer and tell me about what's going on with Mr. Puckerman! Seriously…Is he ill or something?"
Blaine could tell that Kurt just wanted to distract him, but the Puck-Rachel-Situation was really juicy.
So he wiped away the last few tears and kissed Kurt briefly.
"I think it's totally obvious! Puckleberry is on for another round." Blaine simply said.
Kurt nodded: "Yeah. But something is different this time. Haven't you noticed how strange Puck behaves? He calls Rachel by her name, he is worried about her and he wouldn't look into Finn's eyes this afternoon."
"Maybe something happened that he is not really proud of?! Do you think we should talk to Rach about it? I mean we are basically her best friends and usually we talk about everything with each other, right?"
"Yes…We should talk to Miss Berry. I don't want Puck to toy with her and especially not when she's still in a relationship with my stepbrother. I think we should act soon. How about tonight after her and Santana's performance?"
Blaine nodded in agreement: "The sooner the better. Let the intervention begin!"
"GUYS! COME ON! IT'S TIME FOR THE ASSEMBLY!" Mercedes shouted entering the room with Sam and Quinn.
"You better move your pretty asses or we pull you buy your perfect styled hair into the auditorium."
Sam and Quinn laughed at the Diva's enthusiasm.
"What's wrong with, Cedes?" Kurt asked wide eyed.
"She is really excited about the Berry/Lopez-Performance. Mercedes thinks some fighting is going to get down." Quinn giggled while rolling her eyes.
Blaine and Kurt laughed along with her.
"Well don't get your hopes up, Diva. Seems like Satan and Barbra are real good friends now." Kurt reported.
"Yeah! Puck told us that they are totally excited about this performance and are buddies forever now." Blaine affirmed smilingly.
Quinn's look darkened by the mentioning of Puck: "We should go now!" she said dryly.
The blond beauty knew that something really wrong was going on between her daughter's father and her daughter's adoptive-sister and she was going to stop that from happening.
Everyone was settled in the comfy seats of the auditorium when Mr. Shue stepped onto the stage and smiled at them.
"Well guys! I know you are all ready to see a most likely very powerful performance by Santana and Rachel but first of all I have to tell you something.
I know I told you that you were to sing a song about your feelings towards your duet partners…
Well I thought about it and I've decided to change that. You are now allowed to sing to every single person in this room!
I hope you all pick wisely and surprise me and the others with your feelings.
I can tell you so much: If you really surprise us it's better for your grading!
And now…Rachel? Santana?
Will you two please come up and impress us with your lovely voices?"
Mr. Shue left the stage and sat down next to Finn.
Entering the stage Rachel stepped forward and started talking:
"Okay. Before Santana and I start I just want to say that I am truly sorry and also ashamed of myself for what I did yesterday.
I apologized to Santana and she accepted my apology. And we have decided to be good friends from now on and stop picking on each other.
Well enough with me talking…here is our performance!"
(Rachel/Santana/Both)
Days like this I want to drive away
Pack my bags and watch your shadow fade
You chewed me up and spit me out
Like I was poison in your mouth
You took my light, you drained me down
But that was then and this is now
Now look at me
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
I just wanna throw my phone away
Find out who is really there for me
You ripped me off, your love was cheap
Was always tearing at the seams
I fell deep, you let me down
But that was then and this is now
Now look at me
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Now look at me I'm sparkling
A firework, a dancing flame
You won't ever put me out again
I'm glowin', oh whoa
So you can keep the diamond ring
It don't mean nothing anyway
In fact you can keep everything yeah, yeah
Except for me
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me
No
Away from me
No
This is the part of me, me, me, me,me,me, me, me...
No
Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
The two girls ended their performance by standing tall in front of the stage, heads held high and with winning smiles on their faces.
They received standing-ovations from everyone. Artie and Sam even whistled.
Rachel and Santana hugged each other and left the stage with the hugest grins they could form their mouths into.
Sitting down between Rachel and Brittany Santana linked pinkies with both girls causing Rachel to look strangely at her.
"You're my girl now! You, Brit and me…we're the new hottest trio at McKinley. Get used to it!" Santana winked at her.
Rachel blushed slightly and continued smiling.
Was this real? Had she really just become one of the popular kids?
Okay…she still had to be approved of by the rest of the cheerios and probably also the jocks after summer...
but she was friends with Santana now and that had to mean something.
"Wow! Girls that was AMAZING!" Mr. Shue exclaimed after climbing up the stairs to the stage again.
"I would've never thought that you can come up with such a performance all on your own."
"Brittany helped us with the choreography!" Santana shouted and pointed proudly at Brittany.
"Well…then 'Thank you' as well to Brittany for this performance!
Guys this is actually what we really need for Sectionals next year.
If you'll come up with more of these ideas we're probably not going to need to think about a set-list when school starts.
Awesome…really really amazing!
Now you can enjoy the rest of the night in whatever kind of way you want to.
Just…please don't stay up too long. You'll need your strength to find the perfect songs for the next task and practice it.
Have fun kids. If you want to talk to me you can come into my office."
And with this all the teens jumped out of their seats and headed for the door.
"Hey! You two were really great!" Puck had caught up with the new trio and was now walking with them towards the gym.
"Why thank you, Noah!" Rachel smiled not noticing the nasty looks they received from Quinn and Finn.
"That hurts, doesn't it?" Quinn grunted.
"What the hell are you talking about, Q?" he asked without taking his eyes off of Rachel.
Quinn groaned: "You know exactly what I mean. You're not as dumb as you pretend to be. I know that you are worried about the whole Puckleberry stuff."
"There is no Puckleberry stuff…!" Finn growled.
"Oh come on Finn! OPEN YOUR DAMN EYES!"
Quinn dragged him into an empty classroom they were just passing by:
"You totally know that there is something weird going on between them. I'm not saying that Rachel is cheating on you.
I have no proof for that but she and Puck are acting strangely. And that definitely started the same day that our little Glee-Camp began.
Now tell me…do you still have no idea what I'm talking about!?"
Finn ran his fingers through his hair: "I know…It's just…I don't think that I love Rachel anymore."
"WHAT!?" the beautiful blond shrieked.
"It's complicated. I mean I still love her but not in the way you're supposed to love your girlfriend.
More in a way that I still love you…or that I love Kurt. You know...in a friendship-family-kind of way.
And then there is…"
"Please don't tell me you're in love with someone else!" Quinn closed her eyes and silently sent up a prayer to heaven.
"No…not really. There's just a girl I kinda like.
But I don't know in what kind of way. She's just really sweet and stuff. I don't know…I'm so confused."
"Wait a minute! If you're not in love with Rachel then why did you shoot her and Puck those death stares?"
"They were not meant for Rachel. Only for Puck.
I don't want him to hurt her. You know? I care a lot about her and I know Puck better than anyone else."
Quinn sighed: "God, Finn. You're talking about Rachel as if you two are already broken-up.
You should talk to her about your feelings before you start protecting her from any possible new crush.
Just let me tell you that I think a break-up is just the right thing for you and Rachel.
Everyone can tell that you aren't as crazy about each other as you were a couple of months ago."
Finn nodded: "Even though I think it's actually none of your business I'm glad you talked to me, Quinn.
I never had the guts to talk about ending my relationship until you pushed me to do so."
"No problem!" Quinn laughed hugging Finn: "I don't think you should talk to her tonight.
She's just so happy about her performance and everything. Wait 'til tomorrow, kay?"
"Sure. I now actually just want to relax a bit and then have a good and long night's sleep."
The two former lovers left the room and went into the gym where they parted.
Quinn sat down with Sam, Mercedes and Wes while Finn decided to hang with Kurt, Blaine and Danny.
He could feel that the atmosphere was tense the second he sat down next to Danny.
"Something wrong?" he asked confused.
"No nothing!" Danielle answered quickly: "Everything is peachy!"
Blaine rolled his eyes: "I told you that I'm sorry!"
"And I said that it's okay! But you're still looking at me as if you are a sad puppy."
Kurt laughed: "She's got a point."
Blaine death-stared him.
"Whoa! Guys seriously what's going on?"
"I just told you! It's nothing…really! It was a stupid misunderstanding between Blaine and me. It has nothing to do with you."
"Alright. You guys wanna watch a movie? I got a couple of DVDs and Mr. Shue said we could use the AV-room."
"No thanks…I'm not in the mood. I think I couldn't concentrate. My eyes are sooo tired." Kurt said lazily.
"Yeah. Same goes for me." Blaine added.
"I would love to watch a movie. What've you got?" Danny said and stuck her tongue out at Blaine when Finn was busy getting his DVDs.
"I've got Avatar, Transporter, Transformers and Alice in Wonderland."
"Let's watch Avatar. I haven't seen it in ages!" Danielle beamed and followed Finn to the AV-room.
As they were walking they passed Rachel, Santana, Brittany, Puck, Tina and Mike who didn't seem to notice that Rachel's boyfriend was about to spend some alone-time with a girl who was most likely falling for him even though she told her brother otherwise.
That's it! I hope you liked it!
Please: Leave a review! I want to know what you think!
Am I actually the only one who has problems with adding breaks? I add them into the text and when I save it they'll just simply disappear!
HELP!
Lots of loooove, Rina ;)
PS: The song I used is "Part of Me" by Katy Perry!
