Chapter Ten


Rachel POV

I stayed up all night and yet Harmony hadn't come home and by time I was ready to leave for school she still hadn't arrived. Apparently she had called my dads to say she was staying with a friend but that's all she had said. I pulled into the parking lot at McKinley with my hair in the messiest ponytail ever and dark circles under my eyes. Under normal circumstances I would never be seen like this but I figured that no one would be here this early unless of course they had some sort of practice.

"Rachel you look like crap" San said with out as much as a hello

"Nice to see you too" I mumble back

"Lets go fix you up before Coach Sylvester see's you" Quinn guides me to the cheerio's locker room and they all begin work to get me up to cheerio quality as I tell them why I looked like a mess.


Harmony POV

After leaving the coffee shop I jumped on the back of Adam's motorcycle and he took me out of town and far away from Rachel. I ended up staying the night with him at the hotel where he was staying. That night I made up my mind, I was going to start doing things I wanted and if Rachel didn't like it than that is her problem. First order of business quitting cheerio's.

I rocked up to school way after practice was over and after the bell for first period had rung. Adam had dropped me off and promised to be there waiting this afternoon, he was actually considering moving down to Lima to get away from all the bad influences in Cali but he would have to go back and deal with whatever punishment the police chose, it would most likely be community service which he could do in Lima. I however might get juvie time since I was the one to tamper with legal documents. It all depends on the judge.

My first stop was Coach Sylvester's office "I quit" I announce as I enter the room in plain clothes. It might have been smarter to check to see if anyone else was in the room like maybe my sister and her three new bff's.

"You what?" Rachel asks shocked while the others just stare

"No one quits my cheerio's, you either die or I kick you out. Its blood in blood out" Sue looks outraged

"Well I'm out" I throw my uniform on the desk and walk out; letting the door slam on my way out. I could hear the not so hushed whispers coming from the office as I walk away.

The rest of the day followed the same pattern, no longer was I Rachel Berry's perfect younger sister who was popular by association but now I was at the bottom of the food chain with the rest of the gleeks. I knew it wouldn't be long before the first slush attack especially since I royally annoyed Sue but I never thought it would come from someone I knew.

"If you're here to get me to come back to cheerio's than the answer is no" I tell Rachel as she approaches me in the hall

"You left my protection when you left cheerio's. Did you even consider what this would do to me?"

"To you, you've got to be kidding me. The world doesn't revolve around you! Not even the school revolves around you anymore" I should be shocked at how self centred she sounds but the sad part is this is normal for her.

"Well actually the school does now or it will. Meet the new co-captain of the cheerio's. I now share it with Britt" she says

"Co-captain still isn't captain. It's a down grade really isn't it?"

"I prefer to see it as an upgrade. You see our old squad was the best in California but the cheerio's are national champs. The down grade is being in a glee club that didn't even place at nationals but that will change soon enough" When I don't reply she continues "Now my first order of business is to show the school what it means to cross Miss Sylvester"

Out of no where Puck shows up and tosses a slushy right in my face, I could feel everyone staring and hear the hushed whispers.

"Sorry sis but this is what happens when you cross the wrong people" she takes Pucks had and they walk away. It wasn't long before Tina was ushering me into the nearest bathroom to get cleaned off. Rachel was going to pay for this when we got home.


Rachel POV

I was sitting in Coach's office for the second time today but this time it wasn't to tell me that I was being promoted no this time was different.

"Rachel I'm surprised that you went through with slushing your own sister even if it wasn't you who actually threw the slushy so my next mission is for all four my captains" she said

"Uh then why am I the only one in here?" I asked

"Too much effort getting you all in here again. Now its time that you girls picked your sides, none of this playing both teams."

"But I like glee club" I hadn't realised my mistake until I saw the look on her face. Rule one never mention glee club in front of Sue.

"You can stay in the club but things need to change. Your sister and her bunch of losers are slowly fighting their way higher on the food chain and that needs to chain right now"

"How?" I asked but instead of answer I was dismissed. Hopefully one of the other girls would have an idea.
