Ch12: Apologies And Amends

..

Rachel and Mike walked into the school the next day, completely arm in arm and all that crap. Some students looked curious at their 'togetherness' after reading Jacob Ben-Israel's Blog and other's just ignored it , knowing that it wasn't the first time JBI wrote something that was in the least bit true. Well, except this one was, but it wasn't as bad as it seemed. When they walked past Jacob Ben-Israel's locker, Rachel threw daggers at the completely disgusting and grievous creature that was the main target of ruining Rachel's weekend even more.

She thought of suing him for all the disgusting and completely repulsive things he tend to say to her.

But she wasn't that evil as to ruin someone's life, as he would surely go to Juvie. Her Dad was a transcendent lawyer.

She relaxed into Mike's arms when they finally passed that vile God's mistake and she smiled brightly when she saw Puck and Santana interacting flawlessly across the hall. She went to put her books into her locker and told Mike she would meet him on the oval for practice. She took out her Math's book and notepad and shut the locker. She was about to walk away but saw a swish of blond hair and turned around to face her.

"Hello, Quinn." She said politely, although she still felt some kind of hatred towards her. She saw that Quinn was wearing one of her baby doll dresses and her hate towards her went down a dose.

"Hi.. Rachel. Can I talk to you?" She asked. Rachel was surprised to hear that Quinn's voice was slightly gruff as if she had been crying, instead of her somehow low yet high pitched voice that she used on Rachel while she called her all those cruel and ugly words.

"Sure." Rachel answered after a while.

"In Private." The blond said again. Rachel saw an opened yet empty classroom and walked into it without saying a word.

She sat down on a desk but Quinn chose to stand, Her hand automatically reaching for her stomach , to the bulge that wasn't there anymore.

"Well?" Rachel asked, her tone softer than she would like it.

"I just.. - I just. I mean.." Quinn stuttered.

"Stop pulling a Tina." Rachel joked gently and Quinn cracked a smile.

"I've been such a horrible person while I was pregnant with Beth-" She said, sadness covering her face as she spoke of her sacred daughter. "- And I just, It didn't seem right to just leave it that way. After Regional's, when Finn told me he loved me, I felt as if I had my old life back, and I wanted to rub it into everyone's faces, after what they put me through. And, I guess you were the easy target. I have always been so horrible to you. I made your life hell. And now that I experienced it- the life you had to live- I felt so sick to my core at the feeling of hurting someone so much. I realized that people aren't going to take me back if I'd kept acting that way. So, I guess this is my way of apologizing. I feel so horrible that I really need to make Amends to the people I have hurt."

"Okay." Rachel said, realizing that by these words, they weren't going to torment each other anymore.

"But, it doesn't mean we're friends. I'm not ready for that yet, and I'm pretty sure you aren't either." She added quickly and Rachel chuckled slightly.

"Acquaintances?" Rachel asked coldly.

"Barely ,Miss. Berry." She said with an easy smile and walked out off the classroom, students crashing her into the wild sea of the student body. Rachel sighed heavily and rubbed her face.

She had just accepted Quinn's apology. But they weren't friends. That was good.

She got off the desk and ran to the oval, opening the double doors and running to the Cheerio's group.

"Where were you?" Santana asked just as she began stretching.

"Quinn and I talked. Well, she talked like a maniac and I just listened."

"Quinn?" She asked, a dangerous tone to her voice.

"Relax San. She just apologized. It looks like you will be receiving the same treatment soon."

"Rach, I cant lie. I really want Quinn back in my life. But, I just- I can't . Ya know? It's hard. I'm not ready for all that yet." Santana said glumly and began to jog, she joined her shortly after.

"Do you think you will actually ever be ready to have her back in your life , San?" Rachel asked and Santana shot her a glance and ran back.

Rachel sighed, she hated doing that, hurting her friend. But sometimes, Santana just needed a kick in the ass for a good measure to get her back in line.

She jogged back and realized she was so late for the tumble practice that the football one was already over. Mike walked over to her, his helmet forgotten and dropped to the ground.

He walked over to her and smiled as she reached out to him. He absentmindedly played with her hair.

"What did Quinn want, I mean, I can-"

"She just apologized." Rachel cut him off with a reassuring smile that seemed to work like a pill for a headache. Mike breathed a sigh of relief and pulled her closer.

"Apologies and Quinn don't fit in the same sentence." He said few seconds later and Rachel began to giggle. Through out their embrace, Rachel realized that that they came closer, and he so madly wanted to capture his lips in hers. He leaned in fast this time, hoping for no interruptions but it seemed that the bell seemed to think differently. Mike chuckled dryly and bitterly and Rachel rolled her eyes.

"Everything is always pulling us apart." Mike said and put his hand in Rachel's.

"Don't act so dramatic, Mike. It's probably good you don't kiss for a while. We need Rachel for Sectionals and Regional's. And I don't think we will get much practice done while you two'd be pashing like god damn Santana and Puck." Brittany spoke and everyone looked at her, astonished that Brittany produced such a speech.

And then Rachel tackled her. Santana joined too.

..

Math's must have been the most boring lesson she'd have the whole year. Santana and Puck kept teasing Rachel and Mike about their interruptions and let's just say that Rachel didn't take it well. She stormed out of the Math's room when the bell rang and Mike followed her into biology, both teens walking into their classroom before anyone could catch up to either apologize or tease them merciless.

The teacher didn't do anything much but explain the blood typing for next year and let them chat to their friends for the reminder of the lesson. Mike and her didn't talk but just sat together with his arm around her tightly.

At the end of their lesson, they began discussing JBI's punishment.

"Rachel, he might as well get the taste of his own medicine." Mike said as they walked towards the bleachers where Santana and Puck sat making out.

"Yes, But I have experienced it too, Mike. I know how it feels. It's horrible. And as much as I would love to humiliate him, this might get us into serious trouble." Rachel argued just before they sat down and Santana and Puck pulled away from each other.

"Too bad, sweets. We're still doing it." He told Rachel firmly but dropped his arm around her to tell her he didn't like arguing.

"So, what are we doing?" Santana asked.

"Just get two slushy's each after the next period but before lunch and spread the word around the cheerleading squad and the football team to do the same." Mike said.

"Is that Jewfro's punishment?" She asked curiously.

"Yes, We'll film it too so that he can put it onto his website." Puck said.

"You think he will?"

"Babe, I'm a badass. I can make him do it." Puck said smugly and pulled her into another heated make out session which made the other two roll their eyes. Rachel smiled slightly at Mike and pulled him up from the bleachers bench.

They walked hand in hand through the hallway, seeing students in their classes. They sat down on one of the benches beside a class and snuggled to each other.

"Ya know, this is like, the perfect moment to-" Mike started.

"Oh, hey guys." Artie yelled across the hallway with Tina. Mike groaned, hitting his head on the wall and continued with a profanity of curses. Rachel wasn't so happy about this either.

"Hey Tina, Artie." She greeted politely though.

"I just, I wanted to apologize for not standing up for you Tuesday. I didn't want to take sides." Was Tina's reply.

"It's okay Tina, I understand." She answered and looked for Mike's reaction. But since he had his eyes closed, she didn't think he was focused at all. It was rude, but she let it go.

Tina and Artie rolled off towards the Gym and Rachel sighed.

"I swear , they're doing it on purpose, all of them." Rachel snapped and decided to walk back to the bleachers, seeing Santana and Puck still pashing like, well like Santana and Puck.

"'S good we're not alone. I wouldn't hold back then." Mike said with a cheeky smile and followed Rachel.

"Who was it this time?" Santana said when she pulled away from Puck.

"Artie and Tina." Rachel snapped and Santana laughed.

..

Rachel thought she was going to kill Puck during Math's. He kept being disgusting, describing his nights with Santana, giving tips, telling her how to pleasure Mike. She snapped, slapped him so hard over the head that his head fell on the table, making the class go quiet.

", Noah isn't feeling so well, may we go visit the nurses office?" She said when the teacher asked her what was wrong.

"Of course. There are only 10 minutes left of the lesson, take your bag." He said and went back to writing Equations.

"Fuck, Rachel. I swear, you should like, join my fight club or some shit. That was a nice slap." He commented once they were outside.

"Oh, hush, Noah. Let's go get the slushies. I'm sure Santana and the rest are already there." She said and walked towards her car.

"Can I drive?" He asked hopefully.

"Shotgun, if you're lucky." Rachel answered and started the ignition. Puck groaned as he got into the front seat.

Once they arrived, Rachel was shocked to see over ten cars from her school parked into a line. She didn't know that that many people would help.

"Wow."

"True that." Puck said and raised his eyebrow when Karofsky walked out of the store, carrying three slushies.

"I have my reasons." He said as he walked past.

Rachel and Puck walked into the store, walking towards the slushie machine and Rachel grinned.

"Citrus and Cherry stings the most." She said and chose those flavors. Puck followed her choice.

They were sitting outside, being careful not take a sip when they saw Quinn carrying her own slushy. She walked up to Rachel and sat down, two seats from her.

"I hope you don't mind." She said. Puck was about to say something, but Rachel hushed him.

"No, not at all. The more the merrier, right?" She asked.

"Yeah. He posted that story about me and Beth, it's payback time, I guess." She said and stood up, walking towards her red car. Puck followed her with his eyes.

"Are you-?" Rachel began.

"Hell no." He said, in the same tone from that day on the bleachers. "She gave away my baby girl. I ain't getting near that heartless thing again." He said harshly and walked towards Santana, kissing her fiercely. Rachel sighed and stood up, walking towards her best friends.

"Are we ready?" Matt asked.

"Yeah, we are." Rachel said.

"For what?" Brittany asked curiously.

..

The plan was easy, they would get Jacob to go down a hallway, few people to film it from different angles, mega-slushie him and then make him post it on his website. Easy, kind of. They could get any teachers to see them, though.

Maddy, one of Rachel's new friends, told him there was a cat fight going on and he of course, like the little rat he is, wanted to film it.

The first two slushies were thrown by Santana, the other two by Brittany. He stood shocked for a few seconds and then went to run, noticing it was a trap. The footballers and hockey guys began to close in on him, him screaming and begging for forgiveness, quiet loudly actually.

"And this, is for every single video, picture and every single disgusting thing wrote about me." She said, and her and every cheerio on the squad threw their slushies. It was epic. By now, he was covered by every color of the rainbow.

Rachel grabbed Maddy's phone and sent the video to his phone through Bluetooth.

"It better be on you website by the end of school. Under the title : The Loser, get's the taste of his own medicine." Santana snapped.

All of a sudden, a tall figure with short hair came through the crowd.

"What's going on here?" Sue snapped, her eyed shooting daggers at everyone in the crowd. Her eyes zeroed on Rachel, then Santana and back to Jacob Ben-Israel again.

"I didn't see anything, Berry. Scrat." She said calmly and walked back to her office.

The students started walking to the cafeteria, everyone still on their booze from getting revenge.

Mike, who could last any longer, pulled Rachel to him so fast, that it made her head spin.

"Not here!" Matt yelled.

"I don't give a fuck anymore!" Mike snapped loudly and finally, after all the stress, pressed his lips to Rachel.

Rachel couldn't tell what was better, the sudden heat in her brain, or the nice, pleasuring feeling low in her stomach. She felt herself being pressed against the locker, and shut her eyes closer together. Her arms, that were holding the slushie cups, threw them down on the ground and wrapped them selves anywhere she could reach, his shoulders, his silky dark hair, his neck. Mike pulled away after a series of gentle pecks and rested his forehead against hers.

"Finally." He whispered.

Then the whooping and cheers started.

Rachel would later blush when Santana told her she gave a nice view of her tongue during their PDA performance.
