Ok guys, I know you probably hate me… Sorry! With school starting and everything else starting (Clubs, Girl Scouts, Religion.) and homework I've been really really busy. But I will try to update as soon as I can and I'm gonna stop talking (well typing) and let you read the story so here it is…
Chapter 14- Back
I walked into school glumly the next day. I missed him; a lot. I missed searching the halls for him. I missed the feeling of his big muscular arms wrapped around me. I missed his laugh and the butterflies I still get when he kisses me. I let my mind wonder to the negative which I don't allow myself to do often. What if the doctor is wrong? What if he never really does wake up? I didn't know what I would do and I knew I would have to consider it. Just in case.
I got my books out of my locker and slammed it shut. Quinn popped up behind me. "Hey Rach! Wanna go to the movies tonight? Girl's night out!" she squealed happily. "Sure." I answered, smiling. We chatted as we made our way to 1st period Science, which we had together. "So where's Finn?" she asked being her usual nosey self. "Uhh, I don't know." I lied smoothly. "Oh whatever." she said acting like she didn't care.
2 weeks later
Everyone parted as Finn walked down the hall. No sound. No movement. The only thing that you could hear was the faint stomps of Finn's footsteps smacking against the floor as he casually walked down the hall like it was any other normal day. But it wasn't. It was the day that Finn came back to school.
The secret about Finn had leaked and everyone knew that he was in the hospital. That's when the rumors started, "He has cancer." "He got shot." "He got in a gang fight." "He got hit by a car!" Those were a couple of the many ridiculous rumors that started circulating around school. Only I knew the truth and the truth was that it was all my fault.
One day I had stupidly told Quinn about what had really happened. Obviously I can't trust her anymore because she has a big mouth and posted what had really happened in the school newspaper. Now everyone knew. I forgave her, but I'm not so sure how real this friendship really is.
The teachers told us to move along; that there was nothing to see. Everyone listened, even Quinn, everyone but me. I watched is every move intently. I wanted to run up to him, jump into his arms and tell him exactly what I had told him in the hospital a week earlier. But, I knew I couldn't so I just stood there and watched. He rounded the corner so I ran to catch up to him. He stopped for a quick second once he heard my footsteps, but quickly kept walking to class. I opened my mouth to call his name but nothing came out.
The day passed quickly and it was soon 6th period and time for glee club. Finn was already there. I looked down as I walked in knowing not to look into his eyes and walked to my seat. Mr. Schue stepped up "Ok guys, before we get started with today's lesson would anyone like to share something?" I raised my hand hesitantly. He waved me up. I walked up to the front and announced. "Umm, I want to dedicate this to my boyfr- to Finn." At first his face was shocked then disappointed that I didn't call him my boyfriend anymore. I cleared my throat and began.
"Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floorReachin' for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymoreAnd I wonder if I ever cross your mindFor me it happens all the timeIt's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you nowSaid I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you nowAnd I don't know how I can do withoutI just need you now."
I smiled as I saw Finn walking over to me while singing:
"Another shot of whiskey can't stop looking at the doorWishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did beforeAnd I wonder if I ever cross your mindFor me it happens all the time."
I joined in and we were singing together in perfect harmony like old times.
"It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you nowSaid I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you nowAnd I don't know how I can do withoutI just need you I'd rather hurt than feel nothin' at allIt's a quarter after one I'm all alone and I need you nowAnd I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk and I need you nowAnd I don't know how I can do without I just need you nowI just need you now Ooo, baby, I need you now"
We finished the song, chemistry still lingering in the air. I jumped into his arms, everyone clapping and cheering. Except for Quinn. She just sat there, arms crossed, glaring at me with anger filling her eyes. That's when it hit me, I didn't need the whole school to love, respect and adore me anymore. Because I had Finn to do that.
