The ride to school on Monday morning was very quiet. Finn and Rory were too nervous to say anything. Both of their hearts were racing, and Finn was very close to turning the car around and skipping school for the day. But he couldn't. He had to face his fears.
Finn and Rory were coming out to the school. Well, you couldn't really call it "coming out" since everyone already knew because of Rachel and Jacob Ben Israel. Finn was practically shaking as he drove his car. He was terrified of coming out! After what happened to Kurt, he would have never came out! At least not until Junior College like Santana.
Rory was staring out of the window, not even noticing Finn's shaking and sweaty forehead. He was just as nervous as Finn! He was already getting bullied every day! Coming out was just going to make things worse for him! But he didn't really have a choice. Even if he and Finn didn't come out, people were still going to know. Rory was scared that the bullying would get so bad that he would have to leave early and go back to Ireland! He didn't want that! Just thinking about leaving Finn made Rory's heart sink.
Rory's heart starting beating ten times faster when Finn pulled into a parking spot and stopped the car. He was kind of hoping that this was all a dream; that the past two days had been just a dream. But they weren't, and he had to take whatever was coming to him. Good or bad. He knew the Glee Club would be supportive. The rest of the school was what he was worried about!
"You ok, Ror?" Finn asked.
Rory sighed. "No. I'm scared. Terrified, actually."
"Me too. But whatever happens, we have each other." Finn said.
"Yeah." Rory nodded, trying to sound confident. It must have work because Finn smiled and gave Rory a quick kiss on the lips.
"Ready?" Finn asked.
"Ready as I'll ever be." Rory let out a deep sigh.
The boys got out of Finn's truck, and immediately noticed the stares and the comments. Rory was looking more scared than before. He looked like he was about to cry! Finn noticed, and walked over to him.
"Don't be nervous. I'm right here." Finn whispered, and took Rory's hand. Rory looked at Finn and smiled slightly. They were about to start walking to the school when Santana, Brittany, Kurt, and Blaine came over to them from their cars.
"Hi guys!" Blaine said.
"You ready?" Santana asked.
"Not at all." Rory said.
"Well don't worry; we're going to be right there with you guys." Kurt said cheerfully.
"What?" Finn tilted his head.
"We're going to walk in with you guys. It'll be like a big gay/lesbian alliance!" Brittany said.
"Are you sure about this?" Finn asked.
"Positive! Now let's go!" Santana said. All of them nodded, and walked into the school. Santana and Brittany were in front, with Kurt and Blaine following close behind, then Finn and Rory. No one noticed their entrance, everyone else too busy dealing with their own lives. Rory let out a sigh of relief, making Finn chuckle.
They almost made it to Glee Club, when Rick the Stick and his gang of hockey players stepped in front of them.
"Crap." Rory whispered under his breath.
"Well look what we have here. The League of Gays!" Rick said, the hockey players laughing in the background.
"Looks like Glee Club have turned everyone into fairies!" He said, making the hockey players start laughing obnoxiously loud.
"It even turned Finn Hudson. I guess I'll be calling you Finnessa Hudgens from now on!" Rick laughed.
"Listen here Rick the Dick, I suggest you shut the hell up before I go all Lima Heights up in this joint!" Santana said, balling up her fist.
"Ooooh! Lima Heights! I'm so scared! Everyone from Lima Heights is all talk!" Rick said.
"Oh really? Did I mention that I have razor blades in my hair? Yeah, they're all up in there!" Santana snapped.
"Come on boys; let's leave the gays alone so they can go sing a gay song for their gay group!" Rick laughed, making his teammates laugh. They all walked off, still laughing and making gay jokes.
"That was intense." Rory said, making his friends start laughing as well. They all walked into Glee Club together, noticing that it had already started. Everyone stopped talking and looked at the couple. No one said anything. They just looked at Finn and Rory for a long time. Then, Quinn got up and stood in front of them.
"Your lives are about to become a living hell. But we're all here for you." She said, and hugged the both of them. Then, everyone else got up and hugged them.
Everyone, except for Rachel.
