Rachel sighed as she sat on Kurt and Blaine's living room couch. Noah had just left and she felt this burning hole inside of her as the tears slowly ran down her cheeks. Kurt sat down beside her and rubbed her back smoothly.
"Everything's gonna be ok Rachel." He said trying to reassure her in the best way possible. She turned to him and smiled sadly.
"It just feels like there is this hole inside me and all I wanna do is run into his arms, but at the same time I don't want to because I'm mad at him." She said. Kurt looked desperately at his best friend. Rachel stood up and walked to the front door, Kurt following suit.
"Where are you going?" He asked her as he watched her take her jacket from the coat hanger. She fished into her pocket and pulled out a piece of paper with a phone number written on it. Kurt looked at her confused as she pulled her cellphone out and began to dial the number.
"Hey Jesse, its Rachel." She said into the phone ignoring Kurt's warning look. "You wanna go get a drink tonight?" She asked him. Kurt threw his hands in the air and walked away from her exasperated.
"Good so I'm gonna see you tonight." She responded before hanging up the phone. She followed Kurt into the kitchen.
"What the hell are you doing?" Kurt asked her. Rachel just shrugged her shoulders a smile playing on her lips. Blaine walked into the kitchen and walked towards Kurt putting his hands around his waist. "Doing what?" He asked his boyfriend.
"Rachel is going to get a drink with Jesse St-James tonight." Kurt informed his boyfriend. Blaine had already been informed about everything that had happened in High School including the fact that Jesse St-James had egged Rachel.
Blaine looked at Rachel and then back at his boyfriend amused at the way the two best friends were acting. He kissed Kurt's cheek before walking to the refrigerator and grabbing three water bottles and giving one to the other two.
"What, I need a break tonight, the whole reason I'm going out with Jesse in the first place." She said smiling behind her water bottle. Kurt rolled his eyes.
"Do you remember what he did to you Rachel, how betrayed you felt when he slammed that egg on your for head." Kurt said his tone growing louder and louder. Rachel stood up and walked over to Kurt.
"Look Noah kissed Quinn Kurt what do you want me to tell you, I already feel betrayed and by my own husband Kurt, I couldn't feel any more betrayed than I am now." Kurt looked at her and his shoulders slumped in defeat.
"You're right; I just don't want you to get hurt by Jesse again." He said and she launched herself in his arms and hugged him tightly. He put his arms around her and hugged back. She pulled back and looked at both Kurt and Blaine.
"Could you guys watch the kids tonight?" She asked them. Blaine and Kurt nodded at her and she smiled…
At exactly 8 sharp Rachel got into her car and drove over to the best bar/only bar in Lima. She parked outside of the bar and walked out of her car grabbing her purse. She looked at the bar and smiled. There were so many good memories at this bar from a couple years back before the kids were born. She hadn't been here in a while. The bar looked even more thorn down then it before but the parking lot was still fully packed.
Walking inside the bar she saw Jesse sitting on a bar stool already drinking. She walked towards him and put her hand on his shoulder to signalize her arrival.
"Hey Rach." He said his smile growing as he saw her beautiful face. They quickly embraced in a hug before sitting down. Jesse signalled at the bartender to give Rachel a drink.
"So what's up with you, you looked perfectly happy at the store and now you look really sad." He said sweetly concerned about her. She smiled sadly at him before taking a sip from her drink that the bartender had just brought her.
"Well I caught Noah and Quinn kissing." She answered with a tone of sadness in her voice. She was trying as hard as she could to not cry in front of him. He put a comforting hand on her back.
"Want me to kill him for you?" He said with a smirk playing on his lips.
"You know what's funny; about 10 years ago Noah was the one that wanted to kill you for smacking an egg on my head." She said with a sarcastic tone. Jesse smiled at the broken girl beside him. He had made and enormous mistake in smacking her on the head with an egg all those years ago. He was glad that they were on each other's good side again. Even though he would never admit it to anyone he had missed her incredibly. He knew that there was no chance in hell that they were ever gonna get back together but as long as they were friends he was ok with it.
Rachel gulped her drink as she laughed.
"I'm really glad were here right now." She said as she gulped another drink. This was gonna be one hell of a night.
Later that night, Rachel stumbled into Kurt's house tripping over her own feet.
"Oh crap!" She said a little too loudly. She hung her jacket on the coat hanger and threw her purse on the floor. She walked towards the living room and suddenly stopped. Maggie and Matthew were both asleep on the pull out couch. She walked as quietly as possible towards them. She leaned over and kissed both her kids on there for heads. She pulled back and walked trough the house until she reached the stairs that lead her to her bedroom.
She cautiously walked up the stairs trying not to fall or anything like that. She finally managed to reach her room and she collapsed on her bed immediately falling into a deep slumber.
The next morning Rachel was abruptly awoken to the sound of a knock coming from outside her bedroom door. Her eyes snapped open and she brought her hand to her for head where a killer headache was growing. The door opened and in walked Kurt holding a glass of water and two little white pills in the other hand.
"Good morning sunshine, or should I say good afternoon." He said brightly as he put the glass of water and the pills on the bedside table. He walked over to the window and opened the blinds letting the sunlight shine in room emitting a groan from Rachel who had her face buried deep within her pillow.
"Come on Rach, it's time to get up." Kurt said pulling the pillow away from Rachel. "It's 4 in the afternoon for god's sake." He stood in the doorway looking at Rachel as she slowly stood up from the bed. She was still in the same cloths she had worn the day before.
"OK, I get it, I'm up." She said standing up. She apparently stood up too fast because the whole room started to move and she slumped back onto the bed.
"You had too much to drink yesterday didn't you? Kurt asked her, but she quickly denied that accusation. "No I didn't I only had 2 drinks." She replied as she saw the look Kurt gave her she quickly changed her mind. "Ok maybe I had more than…" She was cut off by the sudden urge to vomit. She ran to the nearest bathroom closing the door so she could puke in peace… Kurt sighed and walked down the stairs…
Noah sat on his lazy boy a can of beer in his hands drinking away his sorrows. Rachel still hadn't called him back and the worst part was that yester she had gone out with non-other than Jesse St-James. She hadn't seen him but he had been there hiding away in the shadows as he watched the two laughing away as if nothing had ever happened.
He had been drunk ever since. Jesse St-James, why the hell would she go out with him. He groaned as he drunk the last gulp of beer from the can. He threw the can on the ground where multiple other cans sat. He finally stood up a couple minutes after, heading towards the door. He grabbed his jacket and his car keys. He walked to his car determined to finally talk with Rachel to sort out this mess…But first he was going to go pay Jesse a little visit…
OHHH what is Puck gonna do to him let me tell you it isn't gonna be good. So I hoped you guys liked it because I personally really liked writing this chapter for all you guys so R&R
