A/N: Warning- this chapter contains mild Sugary (Rory and Sugar) and if you don't like them together then to bad because I do, and I miss Rory :(
Anyways on with the chapter :D
The buzzer went and Rachel took off jumping through the starting jump. Barbara Berry made it over the next jump they were doing well.
"Damn" Quinn would curse every time Rachel made a jump or turned a corner without screwing up. Sam walked up behind Quinn who was intently watching the big screen.
"She is bound to screw-up something soon" Sam commented and Quinn jumped putting her hand to her heart
"Geez you scared me'
"Sorry" he apologized "I was just saying she is riding to fast and her horse is gonna get real tired real fast"
"Oh yeah how do you know " Quinn replied turning back to the screen
"Cause I'm the best at this event in the competition, no one has ever scored higher against me". As Sam said this Barbara Berry's back legs collided with the jumping post knocking it off, that was going to add points.
"Told you so" Sam was trying not to laugh. Quinn nodded and then burst out laughing, which Sam quickly joined in, they gathered stares from the some of the spectators.
Sam grabbed Quinn elbow "Come with me"
"Where are we going?" questioned Quinn.
"I think we should go support Rory he'll be starting soon; it's his first competition and he could use all the support he could get, he was a total wreck when I left him"
"Oh, okay" Quinn sighed "you know I remember my first competition, you threw a rock at my horse causing us to screw up the starting jump" Quinn glared at him.
"Okay now that is where you are wrong" he laughed but Quinn was still frowning so he explained "you see I was throwing that rock at Puck, who was on the other side of the track, he was going to throw mud at you so I was trying to stop him"
"So you are trying to tell me that it was just a case of a bad throw" Quinn raised an eyebrow
"Exactly, I was distracted by how beautiful you are". Quinn looked down and felt a blush creeping into her cheeks.
"Don't flatter me this is still a competition you know"
"Doesn't matter, like I said yesterday we can still get along, like you and Santana" he replied
"We are only getting along because she isn't competing, when she is we hate each other, she even shows Brittany the back door. So you and me shouldn't get along"
"Yeah well you're wrong again" Sam slid his hand down Quinn's arm to her hand. "Come on" he said.
Quinn was trying and failing to hide the smile that was playing at her lips. Sam smiled at Quinn
"Why don't you just smile, it's better for you than frowning not to mention it makes you look even prettier, which by the way is almost impossible being as you are still amazingly beautiful when you frown".
Quinn didn't know why the compliments from this boy meant so much. She knew she was pretty, she had been told numerous times by numerous people. Quinn also didn't understand why her feelings towards Sam had changed so drastically. The first time she had met him she instantly hated him, this was mostly because he was so rude to her and had screwed up her chances of winning. But as Quinn had found out as they walked towards the starter jump Sam had not tried to sych her out, it had just been her imagination; also that Sam wasn't being rude it was just that he wasn't so good at talking to girls. What Quinn did know however was that she was falling for a certain blonde boy.
Quinn and Sam made it to the start of the course just in time.
The buzzer went and Rory and Shamrock (his horse) took off. Sam waved at Rory as he made the first jump and Quinn gave him a thumbs up. Sam then gestured to Rory that he should of tightened the strap on his helmet. Unfortunately Rory took this differently thinking that he should tighten the strap now.
That didn't end well. Shamrock ran straight into the next jump sending Rory into the air. Poor Rory landed on his arm, breaking it.
When Rory had come off his horse Quinn had leaned into Sam, not wanting to see the end result.
"I feel really bad now" Sam had said after they found out about Rory's broken arm.
Sam and Quinn went up to Rory when he was in the first aid tent.
"Are you alright?" asked Quinn
"I'm fine" he quickly replied.
"Look man I'm so, so sorry" apologized Sam, Rory waved him off
"Don't worry 'bout it, it was inevitable you just ... helped it along" Rory chuckled
"It's not funny, you could have been seriously injured" stressed Quinn
"But I'm not. Laughing is a good way to get through things, what's that saying? Laughter's like a pill?" continued Rory
"Laughter is the best medicine" corrected Sam
"Exactly that" smiled Rory.
"Well okay then, I'm sorry you had to miss out on competing" said Quinn.
"It's not a big deal, there's always next year, when I'm gonna clean both the two of ya out" laughed Rory. 'Rory is just to happy for his own good' thought Quinn.
"Well I'd better get going I promised Sugar that I would watch her compete" stated Quinn
"I'll come" added Sam. 'So we are going to be inseparable now are we?' thought Quinn.
"Wait" called Rory, Sam and Quinn turned back around. "Sugar's the one with the pale brown hair right?" asked Rory.
"Yeah, why?" answered Quinn. Sam had a confused look on his face.
"Well do you think you could put in a good word about me to her" he asked with a sheepish grin. Sam and Quinn smiled..
"Sure I will" said Quinn, Rory's nervous smile turned into a huge confident one, "But I can't promise on her reaction" added Quinn as she and Sam walked off.
