On Monday, Quinn spent wasted no time getting to school. The moment she got up Quinn was racing to get to school. Quinn got to school thirty minutes early, she knew that this would be her only chance to talk to Rachel uninterrupted. Quinn walked down the deserted hallway toward the choir room. She heard Rachel singing, the acoustics were terrible in the school so she couldn't make out what she was singing. It wasn't until she got she got to the choir room's door that she could make out what Rachel was singing, she was singing Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. Her voice was absolutely breathe take taking. Rachel's voice was filled passion and love, it made Quinn question why she had ever tormented Rachel like the way she did.
Quinn cleared her throat once Rachel had finished, "Oh it's you Quinn. I thought you were Mr. Schuester. Um… do you need me to leave cause I can tot-"
"You can stay Rachel. I just wanted to talk to." Rachel took notice that Quinn seemed happier than usual. Quinn also seemed to be nervous about something, but she wasn't sure about what though.
"Of course we can talk Quinn; just as long as you don't have a slushie with you, which clearly don't." Rachel gave Quinn a small smile.
"Yeah that's kind of what I wanted to talk to you about." Rachel just blinked at Quinn, unable to comprehend what was about to happen. Quinn grabbed Rachel's hand it was small, soft, and warm, totally not manly, and guided her to the piano bench. Once they sat down Quinn reluctantly let go of Rachel's hand. "I want to apologize for how I have treated since day one of high school." Quinn was starting to tear up, "I've called you horrible names, slushied you, and just tormented you. It was awful of me to do that to and I'm sorry." Quinn was completely sobbing by now, all she wanted in that moment was for Rachel to forgive her.
Rachel rubbed Quinn's back slowly to calm her down. Once her tears had slowed she said, "Quinn it's okay. I forgive you. You are a different person now. I can see that you have truly changed as a person." Rachel gave Quinn a warm loving smile, it made Quinn feel happy.
"Do you really forgive me?"
"Really." Rachel nodded as she said this.
"Friends then?" Quinn stuck out her hand as a proposal of friendship. However, Rachel gave her hug, "Of course we are friends!"
"Well as my new friend, can you do me a favor?" Rachel noticed Quinn raised her eyebrows in an inquisitive manner when she said friend, she wasn't sure what that meant but she knew something was up.
"As long as it doesn't involve robbing a bank sure. What do you need?"
"I need your help finding a song for Glee. I'm going to sing it next week as an introduction to the new me, but I can't find a song. Do you mind?"
"Of course not Quinn. And this is my area of expertise so you came to the right person. How about we meet at my house after school on Wednesday."
"Fine with me." A few minutes later the bell rang and the two girls parted ways for class. On her way to her Spanish class Quinn sent a mass text to Kurt, Blaine, Brittany and Santana saying: CROSS 1 off the white board I hav befriended Rachel. :D YAY!-Q
Quinn was over the moon when school had ended on Wednesday. She would be hanging out with Rachel today. Quinn considered it to be a date even though it technically wasn't. She met up with Rachel in the parking lot. Quinn followed Rachel to her house. Rachel's house was a cute little house, that looked very much lived in. Quinn was sort of nervous about hanging out with Rachel, Kurt's Brittany's and Santana's stalking had been inconclusive, so she still had no idea if Rachel was straight or not, she was hoping for the latter though.
Quinn got out of her red SUV, "Nice house Rachel."
"Why thank you Quinn, shall we go inside." Rachel made a gesture towards the door.
"Sure." Quinn smiled and followed Rachel inside.
Rachel Berry's house was bright, colorful, stylish, warm, and clearly had been lived in. "My dads are working at the hospital, and won't be home till late tonight, so we shouldn't be disturbed." Quinn smirked at Rachel's comment.
"So Rachel any ideas for which song I should sing for glee club?"
"Actually Quinn I have no idea what song you should sing. I mean I know you're this new person, but I'm not sure what kind person you are now." Quinn understood Rachel's question, and she wasn't so sure she knew the answer, but se did know who she was.
"Here's the Rach I don't know what kind of person I am, and to be honest I don't really care. I'm going to tell you this because I value our friendship too much not to. The thing is I'm gay." This was the most confident Quinn has ever been sine her coming out process started.
"Good for you Quinn, I'm really proud of you." Rachel leaned into Quinn and gave her a hug. "Oh and by the way you can tell Kurt, Santana, and Brittany to stop stalking me because I'm sooo into you." The next thing Quinn knew was that she and Rachel were making out in Rachel's atrium.
