Hey guys so here's a quick chapter, it's just sectionals. I'll be skipping around so next chapter will already be Regionals I hope you guys enjoy.
"Mr. Schue come on the bus is ready to leave!" Puck poked his head out the window. Mr. Schue said goodbye to Emma and got onto the bus looking at his glee club.
"Sectionals here we come!" The glee club members cheered as the bus pulled out of the parking spot and onto the road. Rachel was sitting in the back of the bus silently panicking to herself about Sectionals. The fear of them not being good enough to beat the Warblers and this other show choir group they had never heard of or even seen performed. As she was drowning in her own thoughts she felt some sit beside her, she turned and saw Quinn sitting beside her.
"Quinn..hi."
"Stop freaking out."
"I'm not."
"Yes you are. You have that look on your face that you are over thinking. Just relax Rachel we got this."
"I know it's just the Warblers are amazing according to Kurt. Plus there's another show choir group that we've never even seen perform. Like what if they are better than vocal adrenaline?"
"Rachel." Quinn sighed and looked at the tiny brunette.
"Yes."
"Do you honestly think we won't be able to win today?"
"I think we are amazing honestly. I just haven't researched the other competitors enough to know what we are up against. But I know we are going to do great, you and Sam sound so good together. You really do have an amazing voice Quinn," Rachel smiled.
Quinn smiled back, hearing a compliment about her voice from Rachel always made her feel great, "Thanks Rachel. Now enjoy the ride and I guess we'll talk when we get there." Quinn stood up but Rachel took her hand stopping her.
"Do you mind sitting with me? You...you calm me down somehow." Quinn hesitated and glanced over to where Sam was and he seemed to busy talking with Finn to even notice she was gone.
"Sure I'll sit with you, under one condition."
"What's that?"
"I get window seat," Quinn smiled wide. Rachel giggled and slide out of the seat to allow her to slide in first. They arrived about two hours later and everyone was backstage getting ready to perform. The Warblers were performing their last song and New Directions had already missed the first show choir groups performance but according to people they were amazing. Quinn and Sam were waiting by the stairs for their cue to start and it was obvious that Quinn was nervous. Rachel was heading backstage after trying to find Alex in the crowd and saw Quinn pacing back and forth.
"Look who's nervous now," Rachel said with a small smile.
Quinn turned around and smiled at the sound of Rachel's voice, the girl always had the effect of calming her and making her nervous at the same time, "Yeah I'm a bit nervous now. It's my first solo and the last time I performed I was going into labor."
Rachel took Quinn's hands without a second thought and smiled, "You have an amazing voice Quinn, you are going to do amazing out there." Quinn's heart sunk to her stomach as soon as Rachel took her hands.
"Thanks..it means a lot coming from you Berry."
Before Rachel could say anything Sam came up behind Quinn and place his arm around her waist pulling her in close next to him, "Hey Rachel."
Rachel looked down at Sam's hand which was resting on Quinn's hip. Rachel's smile faded a bit and locked eyes with Quinn who can easily see the brunette's discomfort.
"Hey, just wanted to wish you two good luck. I'll see you on stage," Rachel smiled slightly lowered her head and rushed off towards the stage. New Directions did great with their performances of I've Had the Time of My Life and Valerie. Since Alex wasn't allowed to perform she had to drive to Sectionals in her own car but she didn't mind. She made it just in time for New Directions to put on an amazing performance. She couldn't take her eyes off of Rachel the entire time, she looked amazing up there. It was time for the results and when all the groups were lined up on stage Alex eyes went wide. She knew who the other show choir group was, it was from her old high school and she knew every person in that group. They announced the winners and it ended with New Directions and the Dalton Academy Warblers tying for first which means they both will be going to were all happy as they walked off the stage with their new trophy. As they headed to the main lobby to board the bus Alex was there waiting for them.
"Gomez! You made it!" Puck rushed over with the trophy in hand and pick her up with one arm in a bear hug.
"Puckerman...air..please."
"Oops. Sorry." He smiled as he set her down. "So what did you think?"
"You guys did amazing, don't think it should of ended in a tie though. You guys were definitely the best group out there," Alex responded with a smile. The rest of the members caught up and said there hello's to Alex.
"Well well well, look who we have here. Alex Gomez. Never thought we'd see you again." Alex sighed at the voice behind her and turned around with a fake smile.
"Samantha, lovely to see you again."
"Sure it is. I wish I would of known you were here. I would of told a certain someone to stick around a little bit longer. I'm sure she'd love to see you again."
"Bite me Sam." Alex shook her head and turned her attention back to her friends and saw that Santana was already in defense mode.
"So what these are your friends now? Look like a bunch of losers to me, but I guess they have to be to be friends with a low life dyke like yourself." Sam and the group of girls she had behind her began to laugh but didn't have time to enjoy it before Sam and another girl were tackled by Alex and Santana.
"Girl fight!" Artists yelled and pulled out his phone immediately to record. Luckily for Alex and Santana, Mr. Schue was to busy arguing with Sue outside to notice what was happening. There was two other girls that were with Sam who pulled Santana and Alex by the hair.
"We need reinforcement!" Puck looked around and saw Quinn who had been in the bathroom come running towards the fight and tackle the girl who had Santana by the hair allowing the Latina to refocus on the girl she was attacking.
"Hey let her go now!" Rachel yanked the trophy from Pucks hand and held it above her head ready to strike down on the girl who had Alex by the hair.
"Crazy bitch." Sam looked at Rachel with a bit of fear while her friend let go of Alex's hair and ran off. Alex turned around and punched Samantha in the face, "She's not a bitch asshole."
The other girls who were trying to fend of Quinn and Santana but we're failing grabbed Samantha and ran off. The cheerios fixed their outfits and hair took a deep breath and turned back to their fellow glee club members who were starring at all of them in shock. Brittany just smiled and bounced to Santana side and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek. Puck smirked and shook his head, "You five are dangerous as hell. It's so hot."
The girls rolled there eyes and began to head back to the bus, "Regionals here we come!"
Majority of the glee club got on the bus the only ones who were still outside were Rachel, Santana, Quinn, and Brittany.
"I'm really happy you came to see us perform Alex," Rachel said with a small smile not wanting to show just how happy she truly was.
"Wouldn't of missed it for the world. We're all a team, we gotta support each other. And thanks to all of you for what happened back there with Sam. She's always been a bitch."
"Who was she anyway?" Quinn asked.
"She was on the cheerleading team with my ex girlfriend. That's her best friend."
"Wait your ex girlfriend was also in a show choir group?" Rachel asked.
Alex nodded, "Yeah, my sophomore year I saw you guys perform actually and I ask if we could have one in our school."
"Wait you saw us perform last year? Seriously?"
Alex chuckled, " Yeah. When I came to McKinley I had completely forgotten about seeing New Directions perform. Then when I heard you guys sing I remembered. Especially you Rachel. Your version of Don't Rain on my Parade was unbelievable. Maybe even better then Ms. Barbara herself.'
Rachel just remain still and wide eyed, "Better than..."
"Great you broke the girl," Santana rolled her eyes and snapped her fingers. On instant Brittany patted Rachel's head and lead her onto the bus were she sat by the window still looking like a zombie. Santana turned her attention back to Alex, "So when we going to pay your ex and that Sam slut a visit?"
"Um never," Alex chuckled, "Don't worry about it. They shouldn't be a problem anymore. I'll see you guys back at the school okay." Santana nodded and got on the bus with Quinn behind.
"Hey Quinn!" Quinn stopped on the first step of the bus and looked at Alex.
"What?"
"You did really good today. Rachel couldn't take her eyes off of you."
"Jealous?" Quinn responded with a smirk.
Alex chuckled, "Why would I be jealous? I'm the one who's still single remember." Alex saw Quinn's face go cold and chuckled. "Look I didn't mean it to pissed you off, I was serious you did great today."
Alex nodded and looked back at the bus where Rachel was looking between the two girls and smiled at her. She turned around and headed for her truck while Quinn boarded the bus and took her seat beside Sam.
