Chapter 2: Waiting

My mom was working late so I doubt she'd care. It was ten at night on a Wednesday. I rush through the doors and head straight over to where some of the other glee members were.

I had gotten the call 15 minutes ago from Artie and raced over here. Rachel was crying, her eyes were puffy and red and she was clutching to Kurt who was also crying but not as bad.

Next to him was Mercedes who had her eyes closed, I think she was praying. Tina and Mike were holding on to each other like nothing else, Tina was crying almost as hard as Rachel.

Quinn was sobbing into Artie's chest and Artie was barely keeping it together himself. I really thought when I hung up the phone that I would start balling but nothing, nothing would fall down. The only thing I felt was this ache in my heart, it hurt like hell.

I take a seat on the other side of the waiting room, away from everyone. I sink into my chair and watch everyone else. I really really wanted to say something, anything, but I was at a loss of words.

After a few minutes I see Santana and Brittany rush in with Sam right on their tails. They both looked wrecked and even Sam looked like he shed a few tears earlier. They all take a seat near everyone else.

I'm not even sure if anyone realized I was here. I see Mr. Shue come walking in looking awful. He takes a seat next to Rachel and closes his eyes.

I play the same voice mail for the tenth time again. It's all I could do right now. This was all my fault, if I only picked up my phone in time, we probably wouldn't of been here.

After thirty minutes, Puck comes walking toward everyone. He looked so messed up right now, his eyes were puffy and red, he must've been crying earlier. I like at his hands that were in fists and could see blood on his knuckles.

Oh god, he must've hit a wall or something a couple of times. He says something to Mr. Shue and then I see him point at me and Puck turns to me. Oh god.

He walks over to me and without saying anything just sits down next to me. That ache in my heart, now it felt worse. I wanted to tell him everything now, I wanted to tell him about the voice mail, I wanted to apologize. Nothing would come out of my mouth.

Flashback

"Guys! Everyone needs to calm down! We won Sectionals, that's all that matters." Mr. Shue says making everyone stop from fighting.

"Mr. Shue, she's a traitor! You gave her my solo and then she doesn't even show up to the competition! We practically lost it out there!" Rachel says raising her voice.

I just sink into my chair even more. "Rachel, you need to chill out, we won." Finn says trying to calm her down. "Why are you even in this glee club, do you even care about us? You skip rehearsal quite a few times and then Mr. Shue gives you a solo and you decide to bail on us! You're lucky I had a song prepared." Rachel says getting into my face.

"Oh please, you didn't even deserve the solo, Rachel! Tina offered up something and you shot it down quickly so you could be the star again." Mercedes says glaring at Rachel.

"OH please, if I didn't sing then we would of lost because of Sam and Quinn messing up on the choreography!" Rachel says pointing at the two blondes.

"Well maybe Mike and Brittany should of made easier steps to follow! We weren't the only ones who messed up!" Quinn says standing right in front of Rachel, she looked like she was about to punch her.

"Kurt and Puck messed up just as many times as me!" Sam says looking more hurt than angry. "Screw you Evans! At least I didn't trip!" Puck says and Sam looks down.

Maybe it was a good thing I didn't make it to Sectionals, what was going on?

"We probably would of lost because of our outfits, who's bright idea was it to make them?" Santana says directing at Mercedes.

"Don't blame my outfits! They were amazing!" Mercedes says getting up and pushing Santana. "Guys! Stop it! Stop fighting and sit down!" Mr. Shue says getting angry and they all do as they were told.

"We're a family! We shouldn't be fighting, we should be celebrating our win even if it didn't go as well as we wanted." Mr. Shue says calming down.

I see Quinn stand up. "Mr. Shue, I'm sorry but this is hopeless. I think we stopped being a family once we got back from summer vacation. And I for one, am sick of manhands here, bossing us around. I quit." Quinn starts walking out.

"Quinn! You can't do this! We need you." Finn says standing up. "Quinn's right, I'm so done with this. Come on Brit." Santana and Brittany start to get up to.

"Sorry Mr. Shue, we're just not what we use to be." Mercedes says getting up with Kurt right behind her.

Slowly everyone else starts leaving to except for me, Rachel, Finn, and Mr. Shue. Rachel stands in front of me. "This is your fault! I hope you're happy!" She storms out and Mr. Shue runs after her knowing that we needed her.

I turn to Finn.

"This is all my fault, she's right." I say and he sighs. "Rachel's wrong, Ally. This isn't your fault." I know he was just trying to make me feel better but it wasn't working. I get up.

"Tell everyone that I quit, so they don't have to. I shouldn't of skipped Sectionals." I start to walk out of the room but he stops me.

"Why did you though? Why have you been skipping rehearsals?" I look down not wanting to look him in the eyes. "You can tell me, Ally because I know you love this club too much to just skip. What's going on?" I just shake my head.

"I'm sorry, Finn. I just can't tell you." With that I walk away feeling a tear or two.

End Of Flashback

I feel Puck take my hand. Why was he doing this? Why was he sitting next to me. I take my phone out again and listen to the voice mail again.

"Ally, where are you? I've tried your house, the coffee shop, even the school, I need to talk to you about the glee club, in person. If you really think this is your fault then I think I know the perfect way to fix everything. Rachel always said that with the right song, you can fix everything. Anyways, please call me, tell me where you are. Bye."

I close my phone and I finally feel a tear fall down. God, I should of just picked up the phone and tell him where I was.

I look up to see Kurt's dad and Finn's mom walking over to the rest of them. I let go of Puck and walk over to them.

"He's in a coma. The doctor said that maybe he would wake up if he heard some familiar voices. You guys can go in two at a time." Kurt's dad says while Finn's mom was crying into his shoulder. I just wanted to tell her I was sorry, that this was a ll my fault.

They walk away to go to the cafeteria and Mr. Shue gets everyone's attention. "Rachel and Kurt, I think it's best if you two go first." He says and Rachel looks up and her sad face turns into an angry one when she sees me.

"You! This is all your fault! He got hit by a car and it's your fault!" She was screaming but still crying at the same time. She was about to pounce on me but Kurt holds her back. Everyone was now looking at me funny. That ache I had, ten times worse now.

"He was driving looking for you! To tell you his plan on how to get us all together again! And look, we're here together again because Finn was hit by a car! This is your fault!" I was just looking down as Kurt drags her away.

She was right. "Go to hell!" Santana says to me before turning back to Brittany. I turn around ready to leave when my eyes meet Puck's.

"Was Finn really looking for you?" He asks and I break our eye contact. "Yes." The ache in my heart stopped. Now I didn't feel anything.

"Rachel was right about everything. Do you even care about this club, Finn? Any of us?" I look back up to his eyes wanting to just tell him everything but I couldn't. The only one I wanted to talk to was in a coma.

"Screw you! You're not Finn's best friend anymore! You haven't been for a long time! Do you care about him!" I wasn't going to stop there. I turn to Quinn.

"You cheated on him with blondie here! Do you actually give a damn!" I ask pointing at Sam. "And you! You tried to take his quarterback position away from him! Do you give a damn?" Sam looks down.

"You make fun of him constantly! Why are you here?" I scream at Santana. I was so sick of this.

"I told Finn earlier today after all of you quit that I could fix this! You guys could come together if I quit glee and go back to being that stupid dysfunctional family! You guys don't think I appreciate this club? Then fine! If it fixes everything then yeah, I quit!" I start walking heading for the door to leave but instead make a right and start heading for somewhere else still in the hospital.

I still want to make sure Finn would wake up so I'm not leaving until I know for sure. God, I hate myself! I hate myself! I hate myself!

I just lost my second family, I just lost the only friends I had left. I just lost the only boy I've ever actually cared about. After another half an hour I decide to see if I can sneak in and check on Finn.

I head down the hallway heading towards the waiting room that they were out. When I reach it, I realize that no one was there anymore. I sigh.

"Ally?" I turn around to Mr. Shue with a cup of coffee in his hand. "I sent all the kids home. We still have school tomorrow." He says and I just nod.

"I just wanted to visit him." I say and Mr. Shue gives me a small smile. "I know you didn't mean anything you said earlier, Finn's going to be okay and everyone is going to forgive you." He says trying to make me feel better.

"I don't think they're actually going to forgive me, Mr. Shue. This is all my fault." Mr. Shue is the only that knows why I've missed so many rehearsals and Sectionals.

"We're going to be in the auditorium tomorrow for practice, I think you should stop by and maybe tell them the truth, you know they'll understand after that." Mr. Shue was right but I'm not sure if I could handle them all knowing my business.

I just nod and head for Finn's room. When I walk in I was ready to burst into tears, but I had to stay strong. There was wires every where, his head had a big bandage on it. His leg was raised in the air.

"Finn, I'm so sorry. I should of picked up, I'm sorry." I walk over to his bed and take his hand. It was so cold.

"I quit glee club, so now everyone could go back and be a family. But Finn, they need you, you're a big part of that family, you know that? I know you look up to Mr. Shue but most of the others look up to you. Please wake up for them, for me." My tears wouldn't stop now.

"My dad has cancer. We found out at the end of summer. I've missed all those rehearsals to check up on him. I missed Sectionals because he almost died that day. You deserved the truth." I say and let go of his hand.

"Wake up for your girlfriend, she might die of a heart attack if you don't." I lightly smile then head out the door. I don't want to go to school tomorrow, I have nothing to look forward to. I have no one to look forward seeing.
