Chapter 13
Quinn stayed in the choir room for the rest of lunch just sitting there in a daze trying to comprehend what just happened. She was startled out of this daze when somebody came into the room the person froze when they saw Quinn sitting there, but slowly walked up to her and sat down next to Quinn on the floor.
"She left me…for good…we're over" was all that she said.
"I'm sorry Q" Replied Santana "at least now you know where you stand with her…Brittany still won't talk to me…or even look at me…god we fucked up so bad this time."
Quinn turned to look at her friend/enemy "What are you doing in here anyway?"
"I've been coming in here every day after lunch when I have a free period."
"Why?" She asked
"To sit…to think…sometimes cry, sometimes I sing"
"What were you planning on doing today?"
"Sing"
"Mind if I join you?"
"I'm not going to stop you"
Santana got up and held her hand out for Quinn to take as she helped her up from the floor. Quinn walked over towards the piano and took a seat.
"What's on your mind?" She asked while looking over at Santana
She hands her a few sheets of music and Quinn looks over the notes then places it onto the music stand and gets ready to play.
"You can take the first verse, I'll do the second."

That afternoon in Glee Mr. Shue was a little hesitant in opening the floor up for his students to perform whatever they want but he had promised them that every second Friday he would let them have an open mic type of lesson. He just hoped there wouldn't be a repeat of the last time he did this. The setting looked all too familiar, Quinn and Santana both sat far apart while Rachel and Brittany both sat together up the back. Also there was an eerily similar tension filling the air, he just knew something bad was going to happen.
"All right guys it's that time of the week again so I'm going to give you some time to prepare yourselves to get ready to perform for us all."
Once again Quinn and Santana just sat there not talking to anyone as were Brittany and Rachel.
After some time Mr. Shue opened up the floor for his students to perform. Puck was up first doing a solo with his guitar, then Finn and Artie did a duet, Mike danced while Tina sang, and Kurt performed a solo as did Mercedes. Once again Mr. Shue asked if anyone had anything else that they wanted to share, looking over at Brittany and Rachel but neither girl got up. He was getting ready to finish up the lesson when Quinn raised her hand.
"Yes Quinn?"
"I have a song."
Reluctantly Mr. Shue nodded for Quinn to get up and do her song. She gave the music to Brad and grabbed two microphones while Santana got up from her chair to stand next to Quinn behind her Mic. Everyone almost fell out of the chair as they saw that the two cheerios were going to sing together. Nobody had seen the two interact since the day they both fought in the exact same spot not too long ago. They all tried to subtly look over at Rachel and Brittany to see their reactions but all turned to face the two girls up the front once the music started to play.
(Quinn)
I've been living to see you
Dying to see you but it shouldn't be like this
This was unexpected
What do I do now?
Could we start again please?
I've been very hopeful so far
But now for the first time
I think we're going wrong
Hurry up and tell me
This is just a dream
Or could we start again please?
(Santana)
I think you've made your point now
You've even gone a bit too far to get the message home
Before it gets to frightening
We ought to call a halt
So could we start again please?
I've been living to see you
Dying to see you but it shouldn't be like this
This was unexpected
What do I do now?
Could we start again please?
(Santana & Quinn)

As the music died down the two girls looked over to their girlfriends but neither of them could read their expressions. The silence was broken by Mr. Shue quietly clapping.
"That was lovely girls, thank you."
They both nodded and went back to their seats.
"Ok guys that's it for today, I'll see you next week."
Everybody started to get up and leave, Santana was halfway out the door when she heard someone call out her name, it was Brittany.
"Santana wait."
The brunette turned around and walked back into the room everyone was a little surprised as they all knew that Brittany hasn't even looked at Santana since a week ago when she and Rachel did their performance. So no one really wanted to leave because they all wanted to see what was going to happen. But they also wanted to let the girls have their privacy so they all moved out of the choir room and let them talk.

AN: Just in case people didn't know, the song is from the musical Jesus Christ Superstar. It has a different meaning in the musical but I thought it fit well with this story.
