Chapter 26
When Quinn got home that night, she went straight up to her room and took out her suitcase. She couldn't be in the same house with her anymore. It hurt too much to see her and not be with the girl she'd do anything for. Through tears, she began to empty out her drawers and stuffed her clothes into the bag. She couldn't tell anymore what she doing, all she needed to do was to get out of this house. And away from the girl that broke her.
Exiting the house, with two bags and her backpack filled, she sat in her car and stared up at the house. So many memories laid within there. Watching Funny Girl a thousand times. Talking to Leroy and laughing about things that had happened. But now, all that was there was the girl that had broken her in half.
Quinn didn't really blame Rachel for the break up. She blamed herself. Why did she have to be so stubborn and let her go? She should've fought for her, and not allow her to leave like she did. Rachel walking away was the only image that was in her mind. It was like it is on repeat and won't stop until she either fixes it, or moves on. And Rachel wants her to move on. So maybe that's what she should do. But not without letting Rachel know how much she was hurting. And how broken she's been since she walked away.
Shaking away the tears, she became determined to try and get her back. They had one more Glee meeting before Graduation tomorrow and she was going to do it then. Since Rachel had sung to her, she's decided that it would only be fair to sing to her in return.
Rachel sat in the back of the choir room and kept her eyes trained on a spot on the wall besides her. She avoided everyone's gaze and ignored their comments about her and Quinn's break up. Just then the room became quite as Quinn and Santana entered the room. Quinn talked to Mr. Shue about something then talked to the band. "Alright guys, before we begin for the last time. Quinn has something that she has prepared." He said as he took a seat and gave the floor to Quinn.
Rachel looked up and Quinn could see that it's been hell for her as well. The girls needed each other. "I think this song, is self explanatory. And Rachel….Just listen," she said as she gave the band the cue.
Seems like just yesterday
You were a part of me
I used to stand so tall
I used to be so strong
Your arms around me tight
Everything, it felt so right
Unbreakable, like nothin' could go wrong
Now I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on
Quinn sang with all the emotion that was built up in her heart. Tears surfaced, but she wouldn't allow them to fall. No more. Quinn Fabray was done crying over every. Tired of being the weak girl that she was. The girl that was in love with the girl whom she used to torment.
Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes
Rachel knew that she had broken The Quinn Fabray. And she hated it. She was unbreakable, but here she was broken. Singing her heart out. Pushing all of the emotions she had into this song.
I told you everything
Opened up and let you in
You made me feel alright
For once in my life
Now all that's left of me
Is what I pretend to be
So together, but so broken up inside
'Cause I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hangin' on
Rachel bit her lower lip to try and hold back the tears that were on the edge of falling. Why did she have to be so stupid? They could've tried a long distance relationship. But no, she screwed up and now, she was never going to get Quinn back. Not now, not ever.
Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes
Quinn could practically feel the sadness that was emitting off of Rachel from the back row. She had kept the eye contact held firmly, so far and she wasn't going to let it go. Not for anything. She needed Rachel to get the message of the song through her head.
Swallow me then spit me out
For hating you, I blame myself
Seeing you it kills me now
No, I don't cry on the outside
Anymore...
Anymore...
Quinn had to bite her lip as well in order to keep her emotions intact, and not break down completely. Rachel could see this and it pained her once again. She hated herself more than anything. Her dad wouldn't be proud of her, for the way that she handled things. In fact, she wouldn't be surprised if he was frowning his head at her right now.
Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes
Rachel slowly hung her head down in shame. She couldn't look into her eyes like that anymore. She wouldn't be able to hold it in any longer. Unconsciously, she rubbed the empty space on her left ring finger, missing the ring that once lived there day after day.
Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes
Before anyone could say anything else, Quinn left and went into the restroom that was closest to the choir room. She stared at herself in the mirror and ran her hands under the cold water that was coming from the facet. She needed to get a grip. She didn't hear the door open and close behind her, but she knew who it was and she really didn't want to deal with them right now. "Please leave, Rachel," she spoke, her voice raw.
She didn't move from her spot by the door, instead, Rachel just looked at the blonde and motioned to the choir room. "Quinn. That song-"
Quinn whirled around and kept her jaw clenched. "Don't you dare, Rachel. I mean it. That song is exactly how I'm feeling right now. And I don't need you to try to fix that. It's over. You've proven that. I mean, you didn't even call to check up on me last night after I left. Of course, I wouldn't have answered but you still could've called!" Rolling her eyes, and shaking her head she continued, "Damn, I'm pathetic…I don't blame you, Rach. I could never blame you for anything. I still love you. I'm moving on like you wanted me to. Who knows, maybe I will find someone else. Someone who will at least try with me. And not give up, like you did. You just gave up. How could you, after everything that we've been through together?" Taking a deep breath, she calmed herself down. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to yell at you like that. Just please, leave. Please. I can't see you anymore."
She looked back at the girl who was crying by the door. "You don't understand, Rachel. Seeing you, hurts too much. Standing here talking with you is killing me! My mind just keeps replaying that day in the hall, when you broke me. You were the first one to break me. Congratulations, my heart is in pieces. And seeing you, hearing you, thinking of you, causes it to ache so bad that I think that I'm dying. I love you! I need you! Please, just do me a favor and leave. Please?"
Nodding sadly, Rachel turned to leave, but before she did, she looked back at Quinn and said for the last time, "I love you, Quinn." She then left the room and walked out of Quinn's life.
