So I was a bit worried about this chapter, but I think I like it! Please let me know what you think! Any kind of feedback is more than welcome, also, thanks for reading. You should all know, that this is chapter 10 out of 11, I think... maybe?
"Before we start, I want to thank all my cast mates for letting me do this. And to our audience, I know that this next performance does not appear on your programs, but I want to thank you all for being so understanding, specially those of you that have been in love and know what is like to screw up and then trying to make up. So no more talking and some more singing, this next song takes me back to high school. Actually it's a mashup, some of you may remember those songs, one of them is Taking Chances, the other one No Air. And with these two songs, the message that I'm trying to get across, well, it's something like, 'forgive me I know I messed up, but what do you say to taking chances, what do you say to jumping off the edge because losing you is like living in a world with no air!' Music please!". The audience went crazy, and Quinn couldn't help to smile, she didn't think she had smile like that in a really long time, and her friends noticed. The band was playing and Rachel sang like never before, she felt every single word, hoping that Quinn would understand that she was more than ready to make things right.
"Wow, Q, that smile! I told you Berry wouldn't screw up!", said Santana
"I can't wait for you to do something like that for me", replied Brittany. Quinn smiled once more, this time she laugh at Santana's face.
"Well, it may not be something like that, but B, would you move in with me? Well, us... well..."
"Of course I will silly, that is, if miss Fabray here doesn't mind"
"What are you talking about? I'd be more than happy to have you around, you're always there anyway! Now shut up and let me enjoy this!". Quinn was staring at Rachel, she might not have heard every word, but she knew, she felt what the other girl was telling her.
After Rachel's mashup, the actual program started, not before the brunette would try to read Quinn's face, and after being reassured that it was everything the blonde was asking for, she went out there with her cast and gave one of her best performances. The audience was going crazy, grinning at Quinn, some of them even told her how lucky she was and how jealous they were. When the performance was finished, and the actors were congratulating each other behind the stage, Quinn showed up, ran to Rachel and melted in the brunette's arms. Then took a step back, Rachel smiled at her...
"So, what did you think?", the brunette asked, nervous and a little anxious.
"What did I think? Mmm, I'm not sure how to put it in words"
"May be with a song!"
"Rach, I love it when you sing, but you know I don't do that anymore"
"I don't... I didn't know" said Rachel, realizing how much she had missed over the last year.
"But don't worry about it... you'll have time to catch up"
"Does that mean you're giving me a second chance?"
"To sum it up...". Quinn made a small pause and walked to Rachel. Put her hands on Rachel's waist and pull the girl in, closer to her body, the blonde leaned her face, getting closer to the other girl's face, she took her time. Rachel closed her eyes, she could feel Quinn's lips, brushing over hers. Then Quinn actually pressed her lips onto the brunette's, the feeling was incredible, she thought. She actually couldn't feel her legs. They were kissing, a very soft and gentle kiss, but enough to get Rachel's cast mates going crazy. It didn't last long, Rachel interrupted it.
"Before we go on with this... you skipped dinner the last time"
"Rach, the kiss was..."
"I know, believe me I know! But it's really important for me, to show you how much I care before... well, before we decide what to do"
"You already showed me, trust me", said Quinn a little disappointed because the kiss was over, but that was the Rachel she knew, things had to be done her way.
"I have some other things in mind", replied with a wink.
"What do you have in mind Rachel Berry? This sounds dangerous"
"It's not, but I think you'll like it! It's a surprise I have for you, I've had it for sometime now"
"What?", asked the blonde, very anxious.
"You'll have to wait and see, it's my apartment... and we're having dinner of course"
"So I see you're really into this"
"All the way", replied smiling.
Quinn and Rachel went to meet their friends.
"Nice singing Berry, and I see it worked", started Santana while looking at the two girls holding hands.
"Yes, looks like it. But we still have one more thing to do. So if you excuse me, I'll steal your friend for the night"
"That's great, so S and I will have the house to ourselves". Quinn wrinkled her face and Rachel laughed.
"B, they don't have to know! Plus, I know there's someone over here who's getting lucky tonight!"
"San, shut up!", said Quinn while poking her friend.
"That's OK, Quinn. Just prepare yourself to be amazed", replied the brunette and the shorter blonde blushed and was unable to say another word.
"Guess I'll see you guys tomorrow morning", finished Santana and began to walk away, holding hands with Brittany, on their way to their new home.
"You know, Quinn, I know what Santana said, but I promise that's not exactly what I have in mind, I mean I do... but I don't, you know. It's not like I don't want you like...", but pretty soon Quinn was kissing her again, except that this time the kiss was a bit stronger and intense, the blonde had her arms around Rachel's wait and brunette had hers around Quinn's neck, she was playing with the blonde's hair when Quinn whispered in her ear "Just surprise me, alright? More than you've done so, so far"
