-Chapter 52-Regionals part 2-
-Snixx pov-
It's been almost a hour and everyone is searching. We can't find Rachel anywhere. The judges are waiting another few minutes before calling us disqualified. So now we really need to find her.
The audience and other clubs are helping out. Well minus the kid names Sebastian. He's just being a asshole about things. Blaine doesn't seem to like him.
Santana ran away numb when Rachel left. She wouldn't let her near her. She wouldn't let her calm her down. So now I'm here.
I sigh and look around the parking lot. I stop when I notice a familiar jacket. I walk over and pick it up. It's got a gold star inside it. I look around for my star.
I hear some tree shuffling and start walking forward. I soon am in a fighting stance. Out of the brush comes Mercedes Jones. I thought these goons got arrested when they came in.
"Calm down" Mercedes coughs and holds her side "I didn't hurt you girl"
"Then why are you hiding?" Mercedes looks away "Come on! There was a good girl in you at one point! We all used to be friends deep down! Where is Rachel?!"
"She's here" I turn and see Finn walking over with Rachel "You all need to get inside"
I'm about to ask questions when police sirens go. I turn toward Mercedes and she looks away. I look at Finn and he nods to the building. I slowly approach Rachel.
She flinches when I touch her but soon hugs me tightly. I wrap my arms around her and walk into the school. Finn walks away with Mercedes shortly behind him. I walk Rachel toward the group.
"RACHEL!" Lucy starts running over but I hold my arm out as Rachel starts to panic "W-what's going on?"
"I don't know" I sigh and motion for everyone to move "Let's get the trophy first and figure this out later"
"I wanna fi~"
"You really think she's gonna talk if we really get disqualified?" Shelby shakes her head no and sighs "Let's go"
We all walk back in silently with the crowd. I see the sad expressions they all cast our way. I see Kurt on the phone before he throws it. I slowly turn toward Rachel.
"Can you go to Lucy real quick?" She looks up at me and nods "Go on"
Lucy holds her arms out and Rachel is quickly in them. Even more sad expressions are thrown. I walk toward Kurt as he sits on the ground. I sit down beside him.
"Mercedes changed her mind" Kurt sighs "She'll be going to jail along with Shuester but she'll get a shorter time"
"What happened?" Kurt doesn't look at me "Kurt?"
"We came to the school when you were away" Kurt shakes his head "Will came everyday looking for you girls...I finally realized what he wanted to do..he wanted to cause as much pain to you as you did to him"
"He lost everything" I feel anger start to bubble "What was he going to do?"
"I honestly don't know" Kurt looks at me and I see his not lying "I left after I saw Will had changed"
"I'll tell you all later" I look up and see Finn "You've got a group to be with"
I nod and he helps me up. I slowly walk away and to the backstage. I walk up to my girlfriends and wrap my arm around them. The main judge finally walks up.
"This has certainly been a regionals we all will not forget" I feel Rachel tense "In third place we have the golden goblets! In second place we have...this is correct?...in second place is Dalton Warblers! Which means your winners are the McKinley Trouble Tones!"
The trophy comes and the audience cheers. But no one really celebrates. The clubs walk over and shake hands but avoids Rachel. I'll have to thank them later.
Once that's done we head to the green room. I see Finn with Kurt, Carol, and Burt. When Finn sees us he gives a small nod. Everyone immediately finds a place to sit.
"Mercedes called me" Finn holds up his phone "She said Will was going to..we'll take everything away from Rachel like she did from him..so I came out from my seat and got there just in time"
"The police have pulled footage from the security cameras" Burt looks at us "He won't be out anytime soon"
"Thank you Finn" I look down at Rachel "You gonna be ok?"
"I almost lost Juniper" I see the tears start to fall "Oh god!"
Lucy and I hold her close to us as she sobs. We work on calming her down and reassuring her. When I finally look up at everyone I see tears in all of their eyes. I slowly look back at Rachel.
"You're gonna be ok and so is juniper" I look over at Lucy "Snixx and Lucy won't let ya down and neither will Santana"
"W-Wheres Santana?" Rachel looks up at me "I-is she mad?"
"She's not mad" I cup her face and wipe her tears with my thumbs "She's just scared"
"I hurt her didn't I?" I look at her confused "When I pulled away from her"
"A little bit she'll be fine" I give Rachel a small kiss "We'll all be fine"
"Will won't be getting anywhere near you" I look at finn and see his bruised knuckles "He's going to be away for a while"
"Why don't we all get home?" Shelby stands up "We can all..we can celebrate if we are up to it at school"
Everyone nods and we start to leave. A feel good moment has been ruined. All because of that no good Will. But the way Finns fists look..he got his just deserts.
I walk out with Lucy and Rachel. Rachel hasn't moved from in between us. So when we get to the car we have to enter like that. We get in and soon we are on our way home.
-Time skip-
The ride home is silent. No one wants to say or do anything. We are afraid to scare Rachel. Afraid that she'll go into herself and not come back.
Will better hope I never see him again. I'll go to prison for killing him and be happy with it. That son of a bitch hurt me Estrella. He deserves to be hurt for what he tried to pull tonight.
He ruined everything. I just hope jail doesn't let him out anytime soon. Maybe some prison guys will love him. Make him blow bubbles.
"Snixx?" I look over at Rachel "Can we go upstairs?"
I nod and we get out of the car. The moms let us just go upstairs in silence. Once we get to the room Rachel walks out of our arms. She goes to the bed and looks at us.
"You ok?" She slightly nods "It's ok not to be"
"I am" She sighs and sits "Or I will be"
Lucy nods and walks to the closet "What would you like to wear?" There's no answer and we both look at Rachel "Rach?"
"I just" Rachel looks at the ground "I wanna just be held and close to you two right now"
"Alright" I take off the dress I wore for the Regionals "Does this work?"
Rachel nods and stands up. She takes hers off next and it's back down. I look over at Lucy who already has hers off. Lucy and I walk over to the bed.
We let Rachel lay down before we do. We get on each side of her and wrap her in our arms. We hold her close as we let sleep try and catch up. Trying to pass the night away.
Soon Rachel's breathing evens and then Lucy follows. I look at my girlfriends and sigh. I know I can't always been there for them. I still can't help how much I hate them getting hurt.
I sigh and close my eyes. Slowly letting sleep over take me.
-Shelby pov-
"What are we going to do?" Judy sits at the table with her head in her hands "Emma may not know how to handle this"
"Emma will be just fine" Maribel looks at me "We just need to let Rachel know we are here for her"
"We are using Emma" Judy shakes her head and I sigh "Judy I believe Emma can help"
"Our daughter was almost beaten to lose a baby tonight" Judy stands up "What training does Emma have for that?!"
"She has enough Judy" She shakes her head and scoffs "What do you want me to do?! What do you want me to say?!"
"I want you not to just go with Emma" Judy sighs "I think she needs extra help"
"What kind of help?" Judy looks away "Judy?"
"Emma and a therapist" Judy holds up her credit card "I'll pay"
"That could be good" Maribel looks at Holly "What do you think?"
"I think it'd be good for her" I see all eyes on me "But it's your choice"
"I'll get her both" I sigh and look at Judy "Let's find a therapist"
