Dreams Don't Always Come True: The Sequel

by Artistard3

This is the sequel to my other FanFiction, "Dreams Don't Always Come True". In the first one, each chapter was a suicide note written by Rachel to individual people, telling them how she truly felt about them. In the sequel, this is will be everyone's individual reaction to the suicide notes. Each chapter is told in that reactor's p.o.v. (Rated T for language)

Puck's reaction:

What is wrong with all of us? Why didn't anyone try to help Rachel before it was too late!? I mean, god, she fucking killed herself.

I knew Rachel since the age of about 7. We've been going to the same Temple since then, and she even slow danced with me at my Bar Mitzvah. God. I may be all badass and stuff, but I have emotions too. And right now, I don't even know what I'm supposed to feel. A girl my age, who I briefly dated, who is my friend, who was also dating my best friend, fucking ended her life because she couldn't take the bullying anymore. She killed herself! What's the most fucked up, is that most of the glee club is what caused her the most pain. We made her depressed and we made her feel unwanted. That's just not okay.

After I received Rachel's suicide note, I thought about her. A lot. And then I went to Temple with my mom for the first time in a couple of months. Everybody knew what happened to Rachel. Lima is tiny, and the community of Jews is even tinier. There was 4 kids my age who belonged to my temple. Now there's three.

When it came time for silent prayer, I skipped what I normally pray for. Usually, I pray that my mom and sister are happy and healthy, because I love them more than anything. Today, I prayed for Rachel. I prayed for her fathers, I prayed for Finn, I prayed for the glee club for some reason. And then it was over and I didn't feel any different. Because Rachel was still gone, and no amount of praying is going to bring her back.
