Quinn just stared at the wall, a million thoughts were flooding her mind. Brittany pulled Quinn to the nearest seats in the office. Quinn sat their looking at her feet, the scene, earlier, replaying in her mind. She looked up at the clock on the wall and noticed she had only been there for 5 minutes. It felt like 5 hours, the tension in the air was thick, Quinn felt like she couldnt breath. She began to tap her heel on the ground and fiddle with her hands. She did this often when she was nervous, and it often annoys people. She had her hands placed on each leg as she sat there, trying to pass time. She wished she could be anywhere else, she just didnt want to be near him. She knew he wasnt the type to get mad, but what she did to him would make anyone mad, but she was still mad at herself.


Mike heard tapping and he knew it was Quinn. She always taps her heel and plays with her hands when she's nervous. Mike sat in his seat picking at his shirt, which is what he did when he was nervous. He could feel the tension in the room. He just wanted to escape, he didnt want to be near her. He felt the angry boiling inside him, and the last thing he wanted to do was let it out and make the situation worse. He buried the angry, holding it off until he can reach the nearest punching bag. It was silent in the office he could hear ever little noise like it was the loudest thing ever. He heard the clock tick, he heard Santana move in her seat, he heard mumbling from Principal Figgins office. He wanted to get his punishment and run out of there, and just keep running until he was far away from Quinn. Even though he knows Quinn deserves it, he didnt want to yell at her and make her feel the way he is. Mike then heard Principal Figgins assisants voice.

"Mike and Santana, Principal Figgins will see you now" the assisant said gesturing to his office door.

Mike got up out of his seat, he turned to look at Santana and glanced at Quinn. She looked sad, disappointed in herself. He felt for her, he really did. Santana got up, flicked her hair back over her shoulder and walked into Principal Figgins office. Mike looked at Quinn one last time, before turning around and walking into Principal Figgins office, shutting the door behind him.


"Quinn and Brittany, Principal Figgins will see you at the same time"

Quinn didnt want to hear that, all she wanted was to not be near Mike anymore. Mike and Santana had already entered Principal Figgins office, and she knew they didnt know her and Brittany were joining them. Quinn stood up out of her chair and turned around to wait for Brittany. Brittany got up and they walked in together. Brittany quickly moved to the seat next to Santana, so Quinn had no choice but to sit next to Mike. Brittany saw herself as being a match maker in that moment, she thought if they sat next to each other their problems would be solved. Quinn didnt want to look into his eyes, she didnt want him to see her like this. She sat down in the chair and looked at Principal Figgins, waiting for him to dish out punishments. She could feel Mike looking at her, she always felt a certain way when Mike looked at her. She wanted to look back, but she felt she didnt deserve to look into his beautiful brown eyes. She could feel tears surfacing but she held them back. She felt selfish and so stupid. If anyone was going to be upset about the scene earlier it should be Mike. He's the one that got yelled at, and disrespected. She didnt deserve to feel sad. She was sad because she didnt mean a word she said in the hallway, and knowing that she said them made her upset. She thought Mike would never forgive her for what she said, which made her tear up in that moment. She was also upset because she should Mike the Quinn he didnt know, and the Quinn she didnt like. The bitchy, selfish, mean head cheerleader Quinn.

"Mr Chang, what a surprise" Principal Figgins said.

"I have read over all of your notes" He said scanning over the four students faces

"All of you were caught talking in class" He said in a stern voice.

"Would anyone care to tell me what was so important, it needed to be discussed during class" He said looking at them all and stopping at Mike. Mike was the only one that was looking at him and not the ground. To Mike that was a sign of respect. Principal Figgins looked away from Mike and stopped at Santana.

"Miss Lopez what was so important that you and Mr Chang had to talk during class?" He said

Santana looked to her left at Mike and Quinn, she locked eyes with Quinn. Quinn didnt know what they were talking about class, so she had no idea why Santana was looking at her. Santana looked back at Principal Figgins.

"We were talking about biology" Santana said confidently

"Is that true Mr Chang?" Principal Figgins said focusing all his attention on Mike.

"No" Mike said. Mike has never been a liar and he wasnt about to start then.

"We were talking about personal matters" Mike said not want to look at Santana, he was afraid she might turn him into stone if he looked into her eyes.

"I see" said Principal Figgins giving Santana a questionable look.

"Miss Pierce, what were you and Miss Fabray talking about"

"We were talking about leprechaun's and lo..."

"And personal matters, Principal Figgins" Quinn said jumping in before Brittany told everyone in the room she loved Mike.

"Well then, soon as you all seem to think it's okay to talk about personal matters during class"

"You all have detention for a week" Principal Figgins said before gesturing towards the door.

Quinn stood up out of her seat and walked out of his office. She didnt stop to walk with Santana, the further she was from Mike the better.


Mike walked out behind Quinn. He didnt know where he was going to go, just as long as he didnt go the same way as her he would be alright. Quinn walked out of the office and turned right to go up the stairs. Mike turned left down the hallway, to get away from her. He was walking quickly down the hallway, when he felt someone grab his arm. He was quickly pulled around to face them, and realized it was Santana. He rolled his eyes and tryed to pull away from her. Santana held onto him tightly, she wasnt going to let him get away. Mike gave up on trying to get away, he was afraid if he pulled much harder he might hurt her.

"You need to talk to her Chang, im serious" She said looking very concerned.

"I dont have to do anything"

"Mike please talk to her"

"No" Mike said sternly. He felt his anger surfacing and didnt want to let it escape again

"Mike she's beating herself up"

"And"

"Dont pretend like you dont care"

Mike cared, Mike cared alot. He hated seeing her beat herself up, but if he couldnt go back and talk to her. If he did the anger might escape and he didnt want to say anything he would regret. He didnt want to make her feel anymore sadness, he didnt want to make her feel the way he did.

"I cant" Mike said pulling out of Santana's grip but not walking away, he stood looking into her eyes. Mike also saw this as a sign of respect, not walking away until someone is finished talking.


Quinn felt Brittany grab her arm and stop her. She turned around to face her and gave her a curious look. Brittany pulled Quinn down the stairs and past the Principals office. She stopped in the middle of the hallway, and Quinn noticed Santana talking to Mike further up. She began to tear up again, she saw him pull out of Santana's grip. A tear rolled down her cheek and Quinn couldnt let Mike see. So she ran up the stairs and into the females bathroom. Brittany ran after her, Brittany wanted to be there for Quinn and she wasnt going to let anything get in her way.


Mike saw Quinn run away. His angry disappeared and concern filled his body. He was worried for her, he was sad because she was sad. It's like their connected and no matter how hard he trys to break the connection between them, something wont give.

"Mike come talk to her, come comfort her" Santana said hopefully. Hoping something would change inside him and he would come comfort her, because she needed him.

Mike thought about it. Thats all he wanted to do, was run after her and hold her in his arms. To brush the hair out of her face and tell her it was all gonna be ok. To tell her he loves her and always will.

"Im sorry Santana, I cant be that person for her anymore" Mike said before walking down the hallway.

Sadness and concern were all he felt. He walked down the halls, wishing he was stronger. He walked into the locker room and straight through to the football field. He walked out into the rain and all the way to the middle of the field. He stood their silent, he didnt know what to do, what to say to make things better. He sat down on the grass, then layed down on his back. He looked up at the sky as raindrops landed all over his body. He thought back to the great moments he had with Quinn when they were younger. The late night walky talky conversations, the backyard water fights and most of all the smiles and hugs they gave each other all the time.


Quinn lent against the wall before sliding down it and sitting on the floor crying. Brittany ran through the door, before stopping and looking at her broken friend. Brittany sat down next to her hugging her to let her know she was there. Brittany wasnt the smartest girl at McKinley, but when it came to Quinn she knew a lot. A lot about Quinn's feelings, her struggles and her family life. Brittany knew Quinn really needed Mike, but she also knew that sitting with Quinn and hugging her was going to make her feel a bit better.

Santana walked throught the door, she stood at the entrance letting a tear roll down her cheek. She wiped it away quickly hoping nobody saw it.

"I saw that" Brittany said.

Santana smiled and sat on the other side of Quinn and hugged her as well. Santana knew everything about Quinn and Mike's relationship, and if Mike wasnt going to be there for Quinn, she was.

The unholy trinity sat together on the floor of the female's bathroom together. Santana and Brittany letting Quinn cry it all out, while shedding a tear or two themselves.


Authors Note: Sorry this took me so long, been hanging out with family and stuff. So just some character development in this chapter. Quinn is more broken then we have ever seen her and Mike also. Hopefully the next chapter wont be too far away.
