Note: I wanna thank everyone that reviews this, either through FF or through Tumblr, it really means a lot and it makes my day, truly.

As you can see, some of you had a pretty good hint in what was about to happen. Let's see if you can guess what happens next.

When Rachel opens her eyes again, the first thing she sees is Leroy's worried look hovering over her head. It's blurry and it feels like someone had slapped her in the face, sending her to sleep for hours. She blinks a few times.

"She's up", she hears her dad say to someone. She has no idea where she is and she tries to remember what happened. This is nothing like her room.

"Hey, princess", the tone is serious and suddenly her daddy is right besides her. That's when she realizes that she's in a couch, they're on their knees in her right side. They're wearing suits. She remembers that something really important was happening.

"Rach, are you ok?", Finn is there too. Then it hits her: she was going to get married. Her head is dizzy like it's brand new information. But she fainted. Because… she remembers Brittany. Telling everyone Quinn is in a coma. She feels sick.

"Sweetheart, can you hear us?", her dad is trying to make eye contact, and she looks at him, nodding.

"How's Quinn?", is the first thing she says. She feels a panic attack building inside her and tries to get up.

"Easy, easy", her daddy's gentle hand pushes her back into her lying position, "You have to go slow, you passed out for five minutes, scared the bazinga out of us".

She almost smiles, and tries to calm down. The folder Turmoil of Emotions is completely open and spreading its content through all her body. From her head to her fingertips, everything felt like it was tangling.

"Quinn's at the hospital, we don't know much about her condition. Everyone headed there after we assured we would take care of you. Luckily for you, as soon as you started looking like a white piece of paper, Puck ran and when you fainted he was close enough to hold you, so you didn't hit that precious head of yours", she heard her dad speaking as he carefully stroked her face.

"Kurt and Blaine promised they would call when they knew something", Finn's voice sounded sad, and she looked directly at him for the first time.

"But we can go now", she says, her voice still a little weak, "I'm fine."

"I don't think that's a very good idea, honey, you need to rest", her daddy's right hand reached to hers.

"We're gonna to take you home, you'll eat and sleep and you can go there tomorrow", her dad said.

"Yeah, Rach, you need to be okay first", Finn said, still standing, "I can stay with you if you want and take you there tomorrow."

"No, it's okay. You can go now if you want", she said, trying to accept the fact that she wasn't going to see her today.

"I want to make sure you're good first. Mom and Burt went out to get you some water and then we can take you home", he hesitated for a second "If that's okay with your dads."

"Not a problem", Hiram said. Leroy just nodded.

"Not a good day to get married, huh?", she said sadly, slowly trying to get up. No one stopped her this time.

"It's just a really bad day, Rach", Finn kissed her forehead, "Everything will be okay."

She wanted to believe that, but her heart seemed to say otherwise.

"There's absolutely no way I'll let over 10 teenagers go inside her room!", the doctor said as Santana and Kurt tried to convince him for the 10th time that they would stay quiet and not disturb Quinn.

"Ok, you know what, last time I checked, looking at someone didn't make the machines go cray cray", Santana said bitterly, "We're her friends, we won't put on some music and try to make her have tequila when she's in a coma."

"What she's trying to say", Kurt cut in as soon as the old doctor's face showed how offended he was, "Is that we just want to see her. Can't we go in small groups?"

"Hm…", the doctor looked at Santana, who didn't look sorry at all. She just raised an eyebrow, impatient, "I guess you can go in small groups of 4."

"Thank you!", Kurt smiled, almost hugging the man in front of him. Santana didn't say anything, just turned her back and began to leave the hallway and coming back to the reception's room.

"We get to see her", she smiled, going straight into Brittany's direction, who immediately stood up and hugged her.

"We have to go in groups of 4", Kurt said, just a second behind her. It surprised him for a second to see this room full of teenagers in black suits and pink dresses, sitting with a worried look. It didn't seem like the typical scene in the hospital, as many of the nurses gave them longing looks as well. He shook his head and tried to push back the thought. "I think Santana and Brittany should go first and then we can organize everyone else after that."

"I wanna go in first too", Puck interjected, "It's my baby mama we're talking about."

"And if there's a last spot, I want to go in the first round", Mercedes said in a broken voice.

"And that's four, so we're closed for now", Santana said, keeping her arm around Brittany's waist, "Can we go?"

"Yeah, sure", Kurt replied. He started separating the other groups in his head as soon as they headed to the nurse that would take them to the room 104.

He, Blaine, Sam and Artie would go soon and Tina, Mike, Rory and Sugar could follow. He took a closer look at everyone. Sugar and Rory we're whispering at each other in the corner. Tina's head was resting against Mike's shoulders while he was stroking her back. Sam was praying. Artie and Blaine were talking to each other. Kurt headed to his boyfriend and took his hand.

It had been 15 minutes already. He could hear Blaine singing Cough Syrup in a low voice. He didn't know why the song had such an impact on him, but it made him extremely emotional. The thought of being alive and well at one second and something unexpected happening, making you nothing more than a body between life and dead was scary. He held his hand even tighter.

A few minutes after, Mercedes came in with puffy eyes with Puck's arms around her. He seemed to be on the verge of tears. They didn't say anything for a while and nobody asked.

"She's gonna wake up", Puck said with a hoarse voice. It sounded a lot like a whisper. Kurt was sure he meant to say that to himself more than to anyone else. Sam got up and gave him a hug. The three of them slowly sat down.

Santana and Brittany came soon after. Brittany had her arm around Santana's neck while her girlfriend had hers around her waist. San's head was against Britt's shoulders, whispering things that no one else could hear. They both had tears in their faces, making them glow. They immediately sat down in the couch and hugged each other with all their strength. Brittany placed butterfly kisses all over Santana's face and Kurt could hear her saying "It's gonna be okay".

He knew this was going to be hard. He swallowed his tears and got up. It was his turn.

Rachel wakes up with her dad's voice telling her she has visits. She rubs her eyes and turn the lights on. She looks around her bed and realizes that Finn had already left. She slowly gets up and goes to the bathroom, splashing water in her face. She sees that she's still in her pajamas, but doesn't care enough to change. She does her routine's vocal warm ups without even realizing.

When she is back in her room, Kurt, Blaine and Kurt are sitting on her bed.

"Rach! How are you?", Kurt is the first one to speak and she realizes that they all have the looks of people who have being crying. Of course, she doesn't say anything about it because she looks exactly like they do.

"Better. How is…", she sighs. She wished that not every time she slept or passed out it felt like nothing had happened. It was hard, because when she woke up reality hit her pretty hard, "How's Quinn?"

"She's.. stable", Puck says, "She's connected to a lot of machines that make weird noises and it's scary, but the doctors said that it's not a life threatening situation… For now, at least", he almost blurts out the last part.

"It looks like she's sleeping", Blaine says, "It really does."

"It's kind of like she is. The doctors said that maybe she can hear us, so it's good to talk to her, maybe it helps her to wake up", Kurt replies.

"Do they know?", Rachel sits next to Puck in her bed, "When she's gonna wake up?"

"No. Not for now. It could be tonight or…", he doesn't finish his sentence.

"She will", Rachel says, her voice trembling, "She'll wake up."

"We know", Kurt says, "Just like you did", he smiles.

"It's a very emotional day. Thank you, Noah, for not letting me fall", she smiles at him.

"And break your talent?", he smiles too. The air feels lighter.

"I'm pretty sure that's not even possible", she replies.

After that, they tell her everything they know about Quinn's condition. Rachel finally asks about what happened. They tell her they're not really sure, but it seems that Quinn and Dave Karofsky were on the same car and someone just simply hit them from behind. The guy was totally drunk. She tries not to feel so angry towards this… guy she never even met, but she wants to kill him with her bare hands. She thinks that even before she beings to wonder what the hell they were doing in the same car. But she doesn't have much time to process that, as they tell her how Santana came across Mrs. Judy and nearly lost her control going all Lima Heights. She was extremely frustrated, shouting at her for not calling her. Brittany had to calm her down and Santana apologized soon after. They even hugged and Judy said she was sorry. After an hour or so, most of Glee club's members had gone, Brittany and Santana were the only ones left when they headed to her house.

Rachel felt incredibly guilty, even though she knew it wasn't her fault, for not making it to the hospital. She thanks them for stopping by to check on her, to which Puck replies "You're my jewish princess, I kind of had to". She smiles at the three of them and gets her hopes up that maybe everything would be okay after all. She still had amazing friends.

She goes to the hospital the next day. Hiram and Leroy wait in the reception's room to give her privacy. Quinn's mom was working, so this was going to be just Rachel and her. It was scary, but at the same time she was very grateful that she wouldn't have to share this with anyone else.

The walk through the hallway that led to her room was the worst. It felt like she was moving incredibly slow, even though she tried her best to keep a normal pace. It seemed like the kind of scene where some kind of music should be playing in the background. It looked like everyone left the place so that this could be her moment to get ready to what was about to come.

But she wasn't ready. She faced the door where it said ROOM 104 for almost ten minutes. She didn't look through the window. She just stared at the number. Her knees were weak and she just hoped she wouldn't pass out again. She counted from 1 to 10. She took a deep breath and finally opened the door.

She definitely wasn't ready. Quinn was laying on her bed like some kind of Snow White in a deep dream. She could see her chest moving to the sound of her breathing and her eyes loosely closed. She stood there, watching her, without moving an inch. She thought she would instantly cry, but truth was, she only cried when she sat next to her and held her hand. She thought maybe Quinn would have some sort of reaction, but there was none.

That was when she started to sob into her hand, pledging over and over "Please wake up, please wake up, please… wake up, wake up, wake up."

After that, it becomes a routine. She goes visit her every single day. Her dads stop coming with her. She waits until Quinn's mom leaves and she leaves before she gets there. She always brings her list: Things Quinn's great at. She always read one thing as soon as she gets there and another before she leaves. She didn't mean to, but after a week, she can see a pattern.

She always sings to her too. Every day it's a new song. The first one was Run, which Quinn mentioned was one of her favorite songs from Snow Patrol. Rachel's used to crying while singing, but she had to start this one over and over before she got to finish it.

She starts getting to really know Judy Fabray when one day she came back early from work. She caught Rachel singing one day. She cried too and hugged her. They became friends after that. It wasn't really rare that Judy would bring Rachel something from the grocery's store (vegan, she had learnt after bringing a ham sandwich). It wasn't really rare that Rachel brought her home made cookies either.

Everyone else stopped every once in a while. Santana and Brittany were always there. She became close friends with the girls. They avoided talking much about Rachel and Quinn's relationship, because Brittany insisted it was not their place to tell Quinn's feelings, but that didn't mean they didn't drop hints. And Rachel held on to those hints like they were saving her life.

She felt incredibly guilty because she was still dating Finn. Their relationship had become colder and colder as the weeks went by. He could feel how distant she was, but she didn't need a dramatic break up right now. She also refused to put a date in their wedding until Quinn was well again.

Rachel even started to befriend Dave Karofsky. They started talking during the first week, when Dave stayed at the hospital, recovering. He had told her a really bad made up story about why they were together that evening, but Rachel didn't push it. He had become a really nice guy. She was pleasantly surprised and they even went out to grab some coffee a few times after he was finally 100%.

"Quinn, you're great at changing your hair. That's number 68. I loved your pink hair, although I never said that to you. I also think you would to a fine red hair if you wanted to. I don't really approve of the clothes and the attitude, but I wouldn't mind if you dyed it pink again. Not that you're not great as blonde", Rachel says, holding her hand as she always did, sitting at her right side, "You obviously are and you know it", she smiles a bit, "That reminds me of I'm Sexy and I know it, it was such a fun day. Mr. Martinez asked for you, by the way. I told him you were a heavy sleeper but you should wake up soon. This reminds me that you've got 16 days. You have to be up so I can add things to my list, remember? I've told you already, but I'm sorry it's so short. I should've added more things you're great at. And when you wake up you're gonna discover hundreds of other things you're great at. And I'll be here to write them, okay? So just wake up and stop worrying us."

So when Rachel reaches #98, she knows it's her last day with this pattern. She sings Run again, because that's how it all started. She talks to her a lot that day. She talks about Nationals, about picking songs and about writing new songs. She remembers #61, Quinn's great at writing songs. She remembers her how they wrote Loser Like Me together. The Berry-Fabray (she insisted of being Berry-Fabray, but she admitted that Fabray-Berry sounded better) collaboration had been a success. That day she talks even more than usual. She talks about the weather and she talks about the raining outside. She talks about the sun, about the summer, about everything that comes up in her mind. She never let's go of Quinn's hand while doing so.

She tries to stay as long as she can, but at one point, she has to go. She still can't believe that it's been a month, but it has. She feels this sad feeling like some kind of circle is ending and her hopes begin to lose its enthusiasm. She sighs deeply.

"Quinn is great in", she has to stop and stop herself from crying, "Quinn is great in subtext speeches about your future", she remembers how happy Quinn was about getting into Yale and how amazing her future was going to be. She remembers how Quinn said almost the same thing for her. She feels the tears coming down her face, "because I'm pretty sure that was aimed at me."

There's a few seconds of silent crying.

"You need to wake up, Quinn. I-I need you, okay? I'm so sorry I never said that before in the proper way", she looks at her, still amazed at how beautiful she is, even tied up to all these machines, "But we can start over, okay? You just have to wake up."

"Rach", it's just a whisper, but Rachel's breath get caught in her throat and her heart skips a beat. She blinks and shakes her head and looks at Quinn's mouth only to see it slightly more parted lips than before.

"Quinn, Quinn, can you hear me?", she says in a desperate voice, "Quinn, please, if you can hear me squeeze my hand. Blink. Say my name. Anything."

And then she feels it. It's just a small amount of pressure against her palm, but she swears she feels it.

"Quinn, Quinn, can you hear me? Please say you do."

"Rach", she hears again, her voice so soft that Rachel has to look at her lips to be sure she even said it. But she did.

"She's… SHE'S AWAKEN! DOCTOR, PLEASE, SHE'S AWAKEN!", she screams while pressing the button next to her bed with her free hand.

And when Rachel kisses Quinn's hand and starts telling her not to worry, that she would be fine, one of the machines start to make noises that she never heard before.

"No, no, no, no, no", Rachel says, even more desperately than before, "Quinn, you need to stay awaken, don't fall asleep, stay with me, okay? DOCTORS, PLEASE"
