But I will keep updating and writing because of all the people who like the story and I thank you for added it to favorites, reviewing ,and adding to alerts.
No one's POV
After Rachel fell asleep and Tony finished with her stitches, all the adults and boys headed downstairs leaving the trio to watch over the tiny brunette.
"She looks so small in this huge bed." Brittany says from her place beside Rachel as she looked down at her.
"She does and she looks so beautiful." Santana says with a smile gracing her lips, while she ran her fingers through Rachel's long brown hair.
" I'm so glad she's okay. I really thought we lost her even before we had chance to be with her." Quinn says leaning back against the head board.
The other two girls nod as they all just sit in silence and watch Rachel sleep. All three of them couldn't be happier. Their tiny brunette was back with them and safe, a little beat up, but safe none the less.
Downstairs
"Why do they get to see and spend time with Rachel?" Finn asks for the 100th time since the others came downstairs.
"We already told you, so shut up!" Puck yelled. He was starting to get very annoyed and was about ready to knock Finn the fuck out.
"All you said was that it was none of business. That's not answer!"
"Well, it's the truth it's not any of your business!"
Finn huffed and glared at Puck, before leaving the room. Everyone shook their heads at the tall idiot's antics. Finn was really starting to bug everyone.
"That boy drives me crazy." Judy says sighing.
"I think he drives everyone crazy. Anyways, it's been brought to my attention that we're going to have to keep a extra close eye on Rachel." Sue says looking around the room.
"Why?" Tina asks quietly, finally speaking up for the first time since the choir room.
"On the way here Rachel had a look on her face that told me she was planning something. When I asked her about it she tried to lie, but I could tell she was. I don't know what she's planning, but I'm pretty sure it has to with going out by herself." Dave answers leaning up from his spot on the couch. " Also, when we got here Mr. Schue said something about making a plan to get supplies and stuff. When Rachel over heard it she I could tell from the look in her eyes she was already trying to plan something."
"And what she done today proves that she will go to great lengths to make sure all of you are safe. So, she will try to sneak out if she can to protect all of us, if she is planning on leaving and going to get stuff." Sue says, before looking at the four boys closest to Rachel. "You four will have to be on your toes and not let her out of your sights, if the girls aren't with her, but I'm pretty those girls aren't going let her get within 5 feet away from them."
"If we go out and get the supplies and stuff, then Rachel wouldn't even want to go, because we would have everything" Sam says looking up at the blonde Cheerios coach.
"That's why I'm planning on taking Beiste and Burt with me to go get supplies in a few days, because right now we have enough stuff to hold us over for a day or two." Sue tells Sam.
"We don't have clothes though." Mr. Schue grumbles looking annoyed at the fact that the Cheerio won't go get stuff for a few days, when he needs hair gel and vests.
"Mr. Schue, you should stop being so worried about clothes and just be thankful your still alive and you wouldn't be if it wasn't Rachel. I know I've never been to friendly with her, but I'm grateful for her and what she done, even if none of us deserved it. She risked everything for the people who tore her down the most and the least we could do is show her respect and not worry about stupid things like clothes right now."
Everyone turned and looked at Mercedes in shock. If one person, besides Kurt who would have agreed on the clothes it would have been Mercedes, but her she was sticking up for the tiny brunette and calling clothes stupid. It was a shock. Sam looked at her and smiled, he knew she was really trying to change and be nice to his tiny bro.
After getting over the shock of Mercedes statement everyone started to plan out what they would need and how Sue, Burt, and Beiste were going to get it. The plan and everything was coming together, that the tiny brunette in the shadows went unnoticed.
Rachel's POV
Looks like I'm going have to put my plan, of making sure no one but me goes out, in motion a lot sooner then I thought. Oh well. I don't mind really, because since Dr. Lopez stitched me up I can actually move my leg a lot better and I'm not limping to bad. The only problem is my ribs, but I will suffer through the pain, because I'm not letting anyone leave this house if I can help it.
I walk back into my room to see the three Cheerios still asleep on my bed. I smile at how gorgeous and peaceful all of them look. I quietly walk over to them and kiss each of them on the forehead, before climbing back into bed and cuddling up against them. Sighing, I look up at the ceiling thinking about how I'm going to sneak out with anyone knowing. It was going to be hard, but I couldn't risk anyone even the ones who hate me to get hurt. Rolling over a little bit I smile looking at the girls.
"I love you all, I know you probably don't feel the same and never will, because I not worth anything. I- I just had to say it out loud, I needed to say it." I whisper quietly as I close my eyes. " You three are amazing and perfect. I never thought it was possible for me to fall in love, but I did and not just with one person but three gorgeous girls, who stole my heart the moment I laid eyes on you."
"Your wrong." I snap my eyes open to see three pairs of eyes looking back at me. "You're the perfect and amazing one and we love you too. We always have."
I stare at Santana when she stops talking. They can't love me? It's a dream. it's not possible that the three most popular girls in school love me.
"Rachie, we do love you and it's not a dream." Brittany says smiling at me. I smile back at her and then smile at the other girls.
"You really love me?" I ask softly. It's just hard to believe that they feel the same way.
"We really do, Rach." Quinn says nodding her head at me. Without even a second thought I lean over and kiss Quinn on the lips softly. Pulling back, I giggle at the dazed look she has, before I lean back over and kiss Brittany the same way like I did Quinn. Brittany of course, doesn't let me pull back. She deepens the kiss causing me to moan.
"Britt! Stop hogging her I still haven't got my kiss." I hear Santana whining from behind me. Brittany breaks our kiss smirking at me. I just shake my head at the tall blonde antics, before I look to my right and smile at the pouting Latina.
"Do you really want a kiss?" I ask her playfully.
"Yes and better give me my kiss, short stack." She huffs out at me. I lean in slowly and just about an inch away from her mouth, I move and place a kiss on her cheek. "Hey!"
"What? There's your kiss."
"On the lips please." Santana juts out her bottom lip. Awww, she's so adorable. I can't say no to that. I lean forward again and cup her cheeks gently as I kiss her.
"Much better." She says smiling wide when we break the kiss.
I sigh contently laying back down with a smile on my face. Damn, I'm tired again. I don't want to go to sleep though. Not when I just found out the trio feel the same way.
"Go to sleep, sweetie." Quinn tells me quietly.
"No, I'm fine." I say trying to hold back a yawn. "I'm not even tired."
"go to sleep, Rachie. We'll be here when you wake up I promise." Brittany snuggles up against me. I just nod and smile at them once more before I close my eyes and let sleep overcome me.
Santana's POV
Once Rachel fell asleep, I smiled at Q and B before motioning to them that I was going downstairs for awhile. They both nod and snuggle closer to Rachel.
"Hey, San." I jump a little when I hear someone say my name as I left Rachel's room.
"Jesus, Puck. Scare me half to death." I glare at him. He just shrug at me and gives me his stupid little smirk.
"Sorry."
Sure, you are."
"How is she?" He asks looking away from me and at Rachel's door.
"She's okay. Just really tired." I tell him.
"I'm so glad she's okay."
"Me too." I say walking with him downstairs. "She told us how she felt."
"She did?" Puck asks looking over at me. I nod at him smiling as I thought about the kiss I shared with her. It was absolutely amazing. I felt the same spark I feel when I kiss Quinn or Brittany.
"She told us when she thought we were asleep. At first we weren't going to say anything, but then she started to say she wasn't worth love. That's when we told her how we felt about her."
"I'm glad you guys finally told each other."
"I am too." I say smiling widely at him. "Now, we can finally be with her and treat her the way she deserves to be treated."
"Just remember she's my JewBro and if you, Quinn, or Brittany hurt her, I'm not going to be happy and I'll make all of your life's hell." Puck says firmly.
"I know, Puck and I promise you I will never hurt her intentional, because I love her so much. B and Q do to."
"I know that you all do and that none of you would ever hurt her on purpose, but I just had to much sure I told you that, because I'm her best friend and it's something best friends do."
I shake me head at him as we join the others in the living room to watch a little TV and talk. Today may have started off horribly, but now it feels as if everything is falling into place and I couldn't be happier for that. I just wish that it never had to come to something like this for things to start to workout.
