-Chapter 37-

-Brittany pov-

Today has been a long day. I've had my girls at my side all morning. Everyone is getting lunch minus these hooligans. They are still with my being worried.

You get one tape worm and everyone thinks you're dead. Rachel is the only one actually sitting down. Something tells me she's the one that explained it all. Santana seems to be the one having the hardest time.

Lucy seems to be in thought more than pain. I wish I could get into that beautiful head of hers. Help take away all of her doubts. Make her not overthink so much.

"I wanna get married soon" The room is silent and all eyes are on Lucy "I wanna get married soon"

"Luce we don't even have rings and stuff picked out" Santana puts a hand on her shoulder "We can't get married soon"

"We need to!" Lucy steps away "We..we can't keep living in this fantasy! We aren't babies! We are engaged adults that wanna to get married!"

"What's gotten into you?" Rachel pokes Lucy's chest "You were just on board as everyone else!"

"What do we tell our kids?!" Lucy gets in Rachel's face "That our moms breastfeed us while we breastfeed them?! That we have diapers like them?! THEY WILL GET MADE FUN OF! Not everything is about you Rachel!"

"No one said it wa~"

"I wanted Yale!" Lucy pushes Rachel back some "I wanted Yale but I came here because you got them to agree to come! I was outnumbered!"

"If you're so unhappy then leave" Rachel looks at me and san "Did I make you two choose?"

"You don't make me choose" Rachel smiles and then frowns as Santana continues "But you were my deciding factor on New York"

"So I'm really the problem here?" Rachel scoffs "Fine"

She removes her engagement ring "Rachel wait" She hands it to Lucy and runs out of the room "RACHEL!"

"I want you out of this room" Lucy turns toward me confused "You aren't allowed to visit me anymore"

"That's not fair!" She looks at Santana for help "San! Help me out here!"

"I think right now it's for the best" Santana grabs her things "I'm leaving too"

I watch my first love walk out and then my second. The rooms quiet only for a seconds. Soon it's filled with the sound of my sobbing. My broken heart fills the empty void in the room.

-Time skip-Shelby pov-

Lucy returned home and explained everything that happened. Her hind end has been dealt with very well. She explained she got too far into her head and just burst. Now we are trying to find the duo that ran away.

"Be lucky we have Brittany helping the pregnant ones focus!" Judy turns back toward Lucy "I'd love to tan your hind quarters more! You don't do that people you love! You should've learned to be better than me and your sorry excuse of a dad!"

"I got scared" Lucy sniffles "Now I have Rachel's ring and we lost two people"

"Lost one" I pull up to a huge group surrounding a stage "I'm guessing the other is somewhere closer to the stage"

"You'd be right" We turn and see Santana "She's about to get on stage"

"How long has she been here?" Santana shrugs and turns toward Lucy "You two need to talk"

They nod and I lead Judy into the crowd "Hold my hand!" Judy grabs my hand and I lead her toward the front "There are so many people! Don't let go of my hand! No matter what!"

I don't hear her response as we push our way forward. After a few minutes we make it to the front. I look and see Judys hair all over the place. I smile and she growls.

"I'm dragging you back through!" I laugh and she smacks my shoulder then points to the stage "Look!"

I look up and sure enough it's Rachel. She's got a microphone in hand. I look and see a karaoke screen on the left side. When did New York get so music oriented?

"This one goes to my friends who have people who don't understand them!" There's a cheer from the crowd and she smiles "THIS ONE IS FOR YOU!"

-Rachel singing-

Do you ever feel like breaking down?

Do you ever feel out of place

Like somehow you just don't belong

And no one understands you?

Do you ever wanna run away?

Do you lock yourself in your room

With the radio on turned up so loud

That no one hears you're screaming?

No, you don't know what it's like

When nothing feels alright

You don't know what it's like

To be like me

To be hurt, to feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No, you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?

Are you sick of feeling so left out?

Are you desperate to find something more

Before your life is over?

Are you stuck inside a world you hate?

Are you sick of everyone around?

With their big fake smiles and stupid lies

While deep inside you're bleeding

No, you don't know what it's like

When nothing feels alright

You don't know what it's like

To be like me

To be hurt, to feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No, you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your face

And no one ever stabbed you in the back

You might think I'm happy, but I'm not gonna be okay

Everybody always gave you what you wanted

You never had to work, it was always there

You don't know what it's like, what it's like

To be hurt, to feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No, you don't know what it's like (What it's like)

To be hurt, to feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No, you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life

Welcome to my life

Welcome to my life

She bows as the crowd cheers. I feel a tug and get lead by Judy to the right side. Soon we are by the walk up for the stage. Rachel walks down and must not see us.

"Oh you're in big trouble!" She freezes and slowly turns toward us "You know how much trouble you caused running? We have been worried sick! What do you have to say for yourself?"

Before Rachel can answer Lucy is running past. She runs to the machine operator and says something. She gets the mic and walks out onto the stage. Santana is soon beside us and out of breathe.

"This goes to my loves" Lucy looks toward the duo "I said somethings toward I can't take back and I didn't mean...but I still love you and love songs are all I know how to do"

-Lucy singing-

Lying in my bed, I hear the clock tick and think of you

Caught up in circles, confusion is nothing new

Flashback, warm nights almost left behind

Suitcases of memories, time after...

Sometimes you picture me, I'm walking too far ahead

You're calling to me, I can't hear what you've said

Then you say, "Go slow", I fall behind

The second hand unwinds

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me

Time after time

If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting

Time after time

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me

Time after time

If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting

Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has turned to gray

Watching through windows, you're wondering if I'm OK

Secrets stolen from deep inside

The drum beats out of time

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me

Time after time

If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting

Time after time

You said, "Go slow", I fall behind

The second hand unwinds

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me

Time after time

If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting

Time after time

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me

Time after time

If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after

Time after

The crowd claps and she gives a small bow. She walks over and stops at the girls. Silent conversations happen between them. Soon they are in a big hug and I pull Judy into me smiling.

"Why don't we get you three to your other girlfriend?" They nod and I look at Judy "Go ahead and drag me through the crowd"

"Funny" She grabs my hand with a evil smirk "You thought you had a choice"

-Time skip-

"So everything is on the path to ok?" I shrug and look at Madison "Thats convincing"

"It's up to them now" Judy rubs her eyes "I think someone had pot there"

We all laugh and they go into light conversation. I just look at the door the girls are in. I hope everything ends up ok. They need each other more than anything else.

I hope they can fix everything before I gets too broken.
