Quinn Fabray pov's
What was I thinking when I agreed to be godmother at the wedding of the woman I love?
She looks so beautiful in that white dress, but her eyes are vacant, without the usual brightness and her smile is minimal, almost forced, she is unhappy, I know she is, but what could I do to stop her from making that mistake? Should I throw the bouquet up and pull her out of the church? Should I kick Finn out of the chapel and marry her?
-We are gathered here... -The priest began his decorated speech.
Finn was grinning like an idiot as he looked at Rachel, but the brunette still had her head down, drumming her fingers on the small bouquet and staring at the people behind her back with the corners of her eyes. She focused her eyes on me and bit her lower lip.
"I can't let her marry this jerk!"
-Finn Hudson, do you take Rachel Berry to love and respect you until death do you part?
-Yes!"-Free Willy's puppy replied with a wide smile on his face.
-Rachel Berry, do you take, Finn Hudson to love and respect you till death do you part?
-NO, RACHEL! -I don't know where the courage came from to say that, but she had succeeded.
The chapel was completely silent, the guests and the bride and groom looked at me.
-Do you have something against this union? -The short, pudgy priest asked.
-I do... -The words were stuck in my throat. -I... I... I...
-Quinn... -Rachel called my name and her eyes were sparkling with hope.
-I have many things against this union! -I declared and approached the brunette. -You can't marry him! -I grabbed one of her hands. -You don't want to marry him!
-Of course she wants to marry me! -Finn shouted and was prevented from approaching.
-Finn wants to lock you up in this town next to him, because you're the only thing of value he has! -Rachel was staring at me at that moment. -He didn't propose marriage because he loves you! He's doing it out of pure selfishness! -My heart was racing and I could have sworn I was going to have a heart attack. -You're a star and you don't belong in this small town, Rachel! -I declared.
Everyone stared at us intently, and it seemed as if our breaths were caught.
-You deserve someone who will encourage your dreams! -That would be the moment to declare my feelings. -YOU DESERVE SOMEONE WHO FIGHTS FOR YOU! SOMEONE WHO IS WILLING TO GIVE UP EVERYTHING TO SUPPORT YOU! YOU DESERVE SOMEONE WHO WILL FOLLOW YOU AND MAKE SURE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE! -I said in a single breath. -He wants to keep you in Lima, because he's afraid that you won't be able to be anything more than a simple mechanic! -Finn was looking at me sharply, but I didn't even care. -I CAN'T LET YOU DO THIS!
-Why? -Rachel asked in a whisper and I swallowed. It was now or never.
-Because I love you and I won't let you ruin your life! - I confessed.
The Glee crowd started stamping their feet on the floor, shouting and cheering with all their might.
-I KNEW IT ALL ALONG! -Santana and Kurt shouted at the same time and whistled.
-Quinn... -Rachel gave a beautiful smile and the sparkle in her eyes returned.
-COME ON WITH THE CLOWNING, FABRAY! -Finn pulled Rachel back by her right arm. -YOU'RE NOT GOING TO RUIN MY WEDDING! -He grabbed the brunette's arm.
-YOU'RE GOING TO HURT HER! -I tried to get closer, but he pushed me away with his free hand.
-I WOULD NEVER DO THAT! -He shouted, turning to Rachel and holding her shoulders. -You want to marry me, don't you? -He asked, convinced that the answer was yes, and again he put that big, silly smile on his ridiculous face.
My heart raced, I held my breath and dreaded the answer she would give. My eyes met hers for a few measly seconds and I liked what I saw reflected in them, there was love, passion, and admiration in them, but it was not directed at Finn but at me.
-No! -She answered at once and turned away from the boy. -I don't want to marry you!
-You can't do this! -Finn was trying to get closer to her. -I LOVE YOU, RACHEL!
-I don't love you! -Rachel declared and looked straight at me. -My heart is owned!
-I DON'T ACCEPT THIS! -Finn advanced against Rachel, but her knees met the ground as Santana kicked her between the legs. -YOU PAY ME, LOPEZ! -he shouted.
-Get the hell out of here! -Santana yelled and I grabbed Rachel's hand in a split second.
Rachel's parents opened the doors of the church for us to pass through and tried to stop more people, but the Glee people managed to get through and kept shouting. My hand was still holding Rachel's tightly, but I had to let go to open the car and get into the driver's seat.
-RACHEL! -We heard Finn's scream and saw the big guy struggling against some people.
-LET'S GET OUT OF HERE! -Rachel shouted from beside me and I started the car.
-RACHEL! -Finn hit the rear window of the car, but couldn't stop us.
When the adrenaline passed and I realized what had happened, we were leaving Lima.
-Thank you! -Rachel seemed to come out of a trance and hugged me tightly. -I love you too!
-I shouldn't have taken so long to tell you this! -I declared and pulled one of her hands to my lips. -Wouldn't you like to take advantage of the fact that you're wearing this dress and marry me?
-YES! -She shouted and kissed my cheek.
In the next town there was one of those 24-hour chapels, and we didn't waste the chance.
-Rachel Berry, do you take Quinn Fabray to love and respect you until death do you part?
-I ACCEPT! -Rachel replied and kept a beautiful smile on her face.
-I pronounce you wife and wife! -The judge declared and I finally took my brunette.
The kiss was calm, but full of feelings long forgotten and when we parted we were smiling like two children on Christmas morning.
-I love you! -I whispered.
-I love you! -Rachel replied and took my lips once more.
-What do you say we go to New York a little earlier? -I asked.
-I like that idea! -She smiled and we left the chapel hand in hand.
-Your parents are going to want to kill me when they find out we got married and they weren't there! -I commented and she laughed as she rested her head on my left arm.
-They'll understand! -She commented. -Love doesn't wait, Fabray! -She pecked my lips.
