-Chapter- 16- Court of tears-

-Rachel pov-

Today's the day...I'm currently sitting on my bed dressed for court. I don't really wanna go in. I don't want to...I don't want to have to see him. I've seen him in my nightmares and when I close my eyes. I'm terrified.

"Rachel?" I look up at Quinn "It's time to go"

"Do you thinK I'm doing the right thing?" Quinn gives me a confused expression "Putting Finn in jail"

"If you don't he could do it again or to someone else" Quinn sits down beside me "What if he gets free and goes after someone who can't protect themselves?"

"I don't need a gu~"

"I'm not meaning to guilt trip Rae" Quinn sighs and puts her arm around me "You're still thinking about yesterday aren't you?"

"I want Brittany to hold my hand in and to hold me after" I feel the tears spring to my eyes "I know I should be mad but I-I just can't"

"I know" Quinn comforts me as I cry "You got us though"

After a few minutes I stand up. I go to the bathroom and fix my makeup. I look at my phone and see a message from Brittany. I can't right now...I have to focus on what's ahead of me. I can talk with her later.

"Rachel!" I open the bathroom door and see mom "Lets go!"

I nod and pick up my phone. I turn it off and walk out of the bedroom. Let's get this over with.

-Time skip- Court house-

I walk up to the doors and see The Warblers there. They open the doors for us and lead us in a perimeter. I smile at the guys and laugh when Nick and Jeff make faces.

"So she brought security" I tense at Noah's voice "Why don't you come out of there?"

"Why don't you back off my daughter" My eyes widen as mom storms up to him and the New Directions "You burned my daughter with hot coffee! Be lucky you aren't in court today as well! Oh and you will never EVER! See Beth again"

I watch Noah's face fall. I look to see Kurt looking...ashamed? When he notices me looking at him he looks away. I feel a tap on my shoulder and walk into the court room. I walk to my table and see my lawyer.

"This should be quick and relatively painless" he gives me a smile and I nod "You will have to see him a little bit but I promise you! I'm going for as long as we can put him in"

"I believe you" I give a small smile "Thank you"

"I don't need a thanks" He looks at the table beside us "I just want that bastard in jail"

-Time skip-(I don't know court stuff)-

"Id like to call our witness Emma pillsbury to the stand" Emma walks to the stand and sits down "Do you solemnly swear that you, Emma, will tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?"

"I swear" Emma the police man steps away "This is my first time on stand...what do I do?"

"You answer questions" Finns lawyers walks up to Emma "How do you know Miss berry?"

"I was her school counselor and now I'm her therapi~"

"So you know her personally?" Emma nods and goes to speak "You are also aware Rachel is a lesbian right?"

I look over to the jury and see a few disgusted faces. I gulp and look back behind me. I feel my fear leave when I see her. Brittany is sitting in the back of the room.

"Keep on subject!" I turn around and see the judge angry "If you stray one more ti~"

"I'm done you honor" The lawyer looks at Emma "Just like this case"

"I got this" My lawyer stands up and walks to a board "Ladies and gentleman of the jury...while finn and Mr. Burgson haven't shown a single bit of evidence...I have it all!"

He flips the sheet and there's the bruising from the straps, The torn gown, and some other photos from the incident. On the ground is Emma's taser. My lawyer walks over to a tv next.

"I also have this before I talk to the witness" He pushes play and security footage shows Finn look at the camera before stepping into my room. Next it shows Emma there and then firing the taser "So Miss Pillsbury...this is you right?"

"That is correct" Emma looks at the tv "I was comi~"

"That's not me!" Finns stands up angry "YOU HAVE NO PROOF!"

"Expect I do" The Board is replaced with another one. It's shows text messages and a photo of the sign in "I have the sign in sheet right here!"

My lawyer walks to the table and then hands it to the judge. The judges looks over it before narrowing his eyes.

"If you give another outburst I'm holding you in contempt" The judge looks at my lawyer "Please continue Mr. Coleman"

"Thank you" Coleman looks at Emma "Can you please continue what you were saying?"

"I was coming over that day to make sure Rachel was ok" Emma looks at my lawyer "Her mom had been hit by a car and wasn't able to see her"

"I see" Coleman paces before looking at Emma again "And what was Finn Hudson doing when you tased him?"

"He...he was" I feel the tears falling down my face as the memories come back "He was about to enter...enter into Rachel Berry"

"I'm gonna need clarification sadly" Emma looks at me sympathetically "What was Finn doing?"

"He was about to put his dick inside her" the jury and the courtroom gasp "Ca-can we get a break for Rachel ple~"

"HER LIFES NOT ON THE LINE!" Finns stands up angry and I flinch "YEAH I ALMOST FUCKED HER SO WHAT?! SHE WANTED IT! SHE LOVES ME! SHES NOT REALLY A DIRTY DYKE!"

"LAST WARNING!"

"FUCK YOUR WARNINGS!" Finn throws his chair and steps toward me "I will never plead guilty!"

"Get him out of my court room!" Police officers start to grab Finn "Get him out! And someone please help that young woman!"

I watch as Finn punches one of the officers. I feel familiar hands on my shoulders and turn. I fall into Brittany and start sobbing. I try to avoid closing my eyes cause all I can see is that day. All I can see his the look in his eyes.

After a bit court is dismissed. I'm helped outside and still am holding onto Brittany. I see movement out of the corner of my eye. I turn and see all of .New Directions.

"W-we are so sorry Rachel" Kurt steps forward "We should've trusted you"

"Yes you should have" I look up at Brittany "Can we go so we can talk?"

"Are you not going to talk to us?" I look at Will "Everything is done you can come back"

"I like where I am" I look back up at Brittany "Let's go"

"Don't be stupid Rachel!" I flinch when I get grabbed by Noah "Come back to our school!"

"I'd advise you let go of my client" Mr. Coleman walks over with papers before showing them to New Directions "Permanently"

We walk away with the warblers perimeter. I get in the car and we drive home. Once inside I sit down across from Brittany and Santana sits across from Quinn. Silence fills the room.

"I know you said not to come but I cou~"

"Thank you for coming" Brittany looks at me surprised "I needed you so much"

"I'll always be there when you need me" Brittany looks down at her hands "I'm sorry about what happened"

"It's fine" Brittany looks up with a smile "I expect a great make up date and for you to come to me with issues now not just Santana"

"Deal!" Brittany jumps up and hugs me "Deal!"

"I am sorry as well Rachel" I look over at Santana "I shouldn't have jumped back to the old ways when I got mad...I just saw Brittany so hurt and I snapped"

"I will only forgive you if you doing two things" Quinn whispers in my ear "Three things"

"What?!" Santana's sits forward waiting for my response "What do I have to do?!"

"One! Take a slushy filled cooler and two!" I smirk "You have to go out in public in my clothes for a month"

"Fine" Santana frowns "What's the last one?"

"I'll leave Quinn to say it" I look at Quinn "You're up"

"You're last thing is very simple" Wuinn stands up "Follow me"

We all walk outside to the pool. Santana looks at it in fear. What is Quinn up to? She said she had something good.

"Jump in" Santana looks at Quinn like she lost it "If you want us back then jump in"

"B-b-but I can't...you know" I look at Quinn confused at what's happening "Not your pool please!"

"Oh you know it's perfect" Quinn crosses her arms "Jump!"

"I hate you" Santana strips down to her bra and panties "Damnit"

Santana jumps in and water splashes up. I get hit by some freezing cold water. It's like being punched by ice. Santana is quickly out of the pool and shivering.

"You better not mess up this second chance" Quinn walks inside and then back out with a towel "Dry up"

Santana dries and we go back inside. Quinn gets her a change of clothes and it seems like all is fine. Everything is back to normal. We are watching tv and nothing is happening.

"Oh Quinnie!"

Sorry this one is shorter just how it ended up. Anyways...CLIFFHANGER!
