-Chapter 40-
-Rachel pov-
It has been a little bit since we got the theme for regionals. A lot has happened in the few days. We had a party and the only two not to drink was Quinn. It was not a good idea for me to drink too.
My head is pounding a bunch right now. She wants us to perform for the school assembly today. I can not even remember what we have to sing. I guess I will have to ask before we go up.
I walk through the halls and feel eyes on me. Do I look that bad? Can they tell I drank? Can they tell I have not been able to make a song?
That is what I was trying to drink away. I have not gone little in a while because of it. I just want to make something to make everyone proud. I feel so useless some days.
Santana was Alpha, Quinn is talented and going to be a mom, Mom is a teacher, Maribel is Alpha, Holly is a big help, Fran takes care of Beth, and Judy is a great teacher. All I am is a big problem for them all honestly.
The bell rings and I sigh. Time to go out and sing. I make my way to the gym and see everyone at the stage. I can see my mate look worried but I just wave it off.
"What are we singing?" Tina seems to be in thought "Tina!"
"Ow!" Tina groans "We are singing uhh..what are we singing?"
"Tik tok" Santana comes over "You alright?"
"Yeah you picked it out" I look at Quinn confused "You did it when we talked after you Uhh..original song"
A memory hits me like a brick wall.
-A week ago-Rachel singing-
There you rest
With all the rest
Of my accessories on my night stand
Your red or yellow
And like a good fellow
Sometimes you get lost in my mess
But when school girl pigtails won't do
And I need to control my doo
Your the only one I can count on
My head band
Your my head band
Wrapped right around my melon
Your a product like Magellan...
"Ok so it is not bad" I frown as Santana stands up "But that was not the best"
"You need to sing about emotion!" Quinn walks over to me "Not some piece of clothing"
"B-but I thought I good" The two share a look and I shake my head "I am fine! I just remembered she wants some underage drinking thing to be done"
"Well why not worry about that instead? Maybe Kurt could do the song?" I glare but it is ruined by a yawn "Rach we are worried"
"Why?" I yawn again "I fine"
"You have not been little for a while" Quinn puts a arm around me "Are you ok?"
"Just busy" I move away "I have to get Tik Tok ready for us to perform"
-Present-
"I forgot" I yawn and sigh "I sorry"
"It is fine but you take a nap after this show" I nod and hear the music start "We have to get out there"
I nod and the club makes our way into the stage.

[BRITTANY & (ARTIE)]
Wake up in the morning
Feelin' like P. Diddy (Hey, what up, girl?)
Grab my glasses
I'm out the door
I'm gonna hit this city (Let's go!)
Before I leave
Brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack
'Cause when I leave for the night
I ain't coming back
[BRITTANY (with NEW DIRECTIONS)]

Everything has been great and then I get vomited on. I stop and some gets in my mouth. Vomit should not be this grayish purple. I am ready to get sick too.
Brittany runs and I figure that was all of it. Instead Santana is next to vomit on me. She at least looks apologetic. I just stand still has it soaks me.
This is going to be a long shower.
-Time skip-
I am at the Lima bean with Kurt. We are waiting for Blaine. Santana let me come as an apology. She felt really bad that I got vomited on. We all also had to sign a paper to never drink again until we are old enough.
"You still feel guilty about kissing Blaine?" I look at Kurt and nod "He does not hate you"
"Do you?" Kurt shakes his head "I just have so much on my mind"
"The original will come to you Rachel" He puts a hand on my shoulder "It is all about timing sometimes"
"Rachel can we do a test?" I turn to Blaine and nod "Kiss me"
I give Kurt a confused look and he shrugs. I kiss Blaine for a quick second. When I pull back Blaine looks like he did. He smiles soon and looks at Kurt.
"I am definitely gay" I chuckle and he looks at me "You ok?"
"Just figuring out that she is so close to getting it right" Kurt puts a hand on my shoulder "Go to your girls"
I nod and his words play in my head. I leave and head back home. It is a quiet ride all the way there. I go straight to my room as a song finally comes to my mind.
-Time skip-Santana pov-
Quinn and go to our room to find Rachel. She has not been responding to her name being called. We go in and I smile at what I see. She is asleep on the desk as a baby.
I slowly pick her up and carry her to the bed. I lay down with her and Quinn. We share a smile and set an alarm. We can have a quick nap before dinner.
Moments like these are our favorite to share.
