Rachel woke up the next morning, for about the fifth time. She couldn't sleep knowing Jesse knew where she was. The first time she woke up, was when she noticed Mike had gone to his room. She couldn't wake him up and ask him to come again, so she tried her best to sleep but failed. She heard someone knocking on the door.

"Rachel?" she heard Mercedes say.

"Come in!" she told her. "Good morning" she told her when she came in.

"Hi, I was wondering if I could use your bathroom, cause… you know, it's kind of awkward using one of the boys'" she told her.

"Sure, but first, tell me everything about last night!" she said excited.

"What about last night?"

"Oh, come on Mercedes!"

"I'm just messing with you! It was… PERFECT!" she said sitting on Rachel's bed. "I mean he's such a great guy! We danced, and then he got us drinks! And then we went outside to just, talk about everything and nothing, you know? I know it's not much, but it was the best night of my life" she finished.

"Hey, that's a lot! And I mean you're spending the weekend together! So probably a lot more will happen! I want every detail!" Rachel told Mercedes.

"Then you need to tell me the details about Mike! Kurt told me he got jealous when Puck asked you to dance."

"Really? I thought Brittany actually called for Puck" she said with a confused look, but then she smiled. "Do you really think he likes me? I mean he's great to me! He's always taking care of me! I like him a lot Mercedes, but I'm just kind of scared."

"Why are you scared?"

"Well, my last relationship didn't end very well. I mean at all! I know Mike is not like that at all, but I can't help it! And I hate it!"

"Look diva, I don't know what happened, but you can't be scared for the rest of your life! And Mike is a great guy! And everyone can see how he cares for you, you deserve this Rachel!" she told her smiling. "I'm gonna go take a shower ok? Kurt, Artie and Tina are on their way, and we're picking Brittany up." Rachel just nodded and got out of bed. She went to get ready in Matt's bathroom, since hers was occupied. She came down and saw the boys eating.

"Good morning" she said smiling. The three boys were looking at her with worried looks. "What's wrong?"

"Rach, what happened last night at the party?" Matt asked her. Rachel turned to look at Mike who mouthed 'sorry' to her.

"What do you mean?"

"Chang told us you were really upset, but he won't tell us why! Spill Berry!" Puck said.

She sighed, knowing she wouldn't win this argument and said "Jesse called me last night."

"WHAT?" Matt said really angry. "What the fuck did that asshole say to you? Why didn't you tell me?" Even Puck was shocked of Matt's anger.

"Matt calm down!" Rachel started.

"NO! Rachel why didn't you tell me? I swear I'm gonna kill that piece of shit!"

"Look, he just called to piss me off! He said stupid things!"

"Rachel! Don't lie to me! What did that fuck say?" when she was about to answer, they heard the doorbell. Thank God Rachel thought. Mike went to open the door and Artie, Tina and Kurt came in. "This isn't over" Matt whispered to her before going to get ready. After she finished eating, she went to Puck's bathroom to brush her teeth. Puck was there shaving.

"Get out midget!" he told her.

"No! Move!"

"Go to your bathroom loser!"

"I can't! Mercedes is there."

"Seriously! Get out!" he said, and he leaned over to wash his face, at the same time, Rachel spit the toothpaste. When she realized what she had done, she gasped and put a hand to her mouth, trying not to laugh. Puck came up slowly and glared at her. He put a hand behind his head, where the toothpaste was. He looked at it in his hand and then glared at Rachel again. "You're dead!" he said before grabbing the shave cream can and throwing shaving cream all over her.

"NOAH! Get away from me!" she said grabbing the toothpaste and throwing it all over him. When they looked at the door, they saw Matt and Mike standing there laughing at them.

"You guys are seriously twisted!" Mike said between laughs. When they finished getting ready (again) they went down to meet everyone else.

"So, how are we traveling?" Matt asked.

"Oh! I thought Artie, Tina, Puck and Brittany could come with me, and Mike, Rachel, you and Mercedes?" Kurt answered.

"Sounds good" Puck said. "We have to pick up Brittany. I already called her and told her we're on our way."

"Uh, I don't wanna be a party pooper, but where are we staying?" Artie said. Everyone turned to look at Rachel.

"Oh, right, we're staying at Blaine's" she answered.

"Ok, let's get going" Mike said. "I call shot-" he started but Rachel elbowed him on the stomach. "I mean Mercedes, you should go in the front."

"Are you sure?" she said looking at him and at Rachel.

"Totally" Rachel said smiling.


When they were in the car, Mercedes was in charge of the music. "Oh my God, I love this song!" she said smiling and they all sang along.

Let's take off in flight and race through the sky

And like the hundreds of airplanes we're floating way up high

We'll never look down, we'll build our own town

And like the thousands of clouds we will never touch the ground

But would you risk some broken bones

Just to call this place home

This could be home

Maybe I'm down low

Maybe I'm up high

Maybe I'm losing my own mind

You know that there are no other two hearts closer than ours

Maybe you'll follow

Maybe you'll stay

I'm praying you won't give yourself away

You know that you are the only one I promise the stars

You are

With your hand in mine, we'll soar through the night

And like the dozens of spaceships we'll dance with sattelites

We'll keep our eyes closed and we won't let go

And with the millions of stars wel will never be alone

But would you risk some broken bones

Just to call this place home

This could be home

Maybe I'm down low

Maybe I'm up high

Maybe I'm losing my own mind

You know that there are no other two hearts closer than ours

Maybe you'll follow

Maybe you'll stay

I'm praying you won't give yourself away

You know that you are the only one I promise the stars

You are

I want you my only lover

And I want you my only lover

Maybe I'm down low

Maybe I'm up high

Maybe I'm losing my own mind

You know that there are no other two hearts closer than ours

Maybe you'll follow

Maybe you'll stay

I'm praying you won't give yourself away

You know that you are the only one I promise the stars

You are

The whole song, Mike stared at Rachel, who was looking outside the window. She looked sad and tired. "Rach" he whispered to her. She turned to look at him. "You look tired doll."

She looked to the front, where Matt and Mercedes were talking about something, not paying attention to them. She got closer to Mike and told him "I didn't sleep much last night."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Mike asked her.

"You were already gone, I wasn't going to wake you up" she said a little embarrassed.

"Why don't you try to sleep doll?" he said smiling at her and putting his arm around her shoulders.

"I'm scared Mike" she told him looking down. He lifted her head with his hand.

"I'm not going anywhere doll" he said kissing her forehead. He hugged her to him and in less than five minutes, she was asleep.


"Rach?" Mike shook her gently about two hours later. When she opened her eyes, she saw they were at a gas station. "We stopped to use the bathroom and get something to drink. Do you want anything?" she shook her head no and whispered 'thanks'. When she saw Mike walking away she felt something in her stomach. Oh my God! I didn't have a nightmare! She thought. For the first time in almost five months, she didn't have a nightmare. After that night, every time she would fall asleep, she would have that nightmare, at least once. She was put out of her thoughts when Matt spoke to her.

"Rach?" she looked at him. "Baby, I know you don't want to, but you have to tell me what Jesse told you."

She looked at him with sad eyes and told him. "He knows where I am."

Matt looked at her with a scared look and asked "How do you know?"

"He told me, he said he knows where I was and that he would find me" she said with a blanked expression.

Matt wanted to think that he was bluffing. But what if he wasn't? He grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "Baby, look at me! I promise that I will never let that asshole near you again ok? I don't care what I have to do, he will not hurt you again, do you trust me?" she nodded at him and he kissed her forehead. "What were you thinking about?" he asked her.

"I didn't have a nightmare" she said. He looked at her confused and she continued "After that night, every time I fell asleep, I would have the same nightmare over and over again. Today, when I fell asleep, I didn't."

"Because of Mike?" he asked.

"I don't know, it's weird. I really like him Matty, but I'm scared."

"I know! I've seen it. He makes you smile a lot" he said smiling at her. "He cares a lot about you, you know?" she was about to say something, when Mike and Mercedes came in the car again.

"Let's go" Mercedes said excited. They spent the rest of the trip singing and playing games.


When they arrived there, Rachel called Blaine.

"Hello?"

"BB! We're here!" she said smiling.

"Munchkin! I'm at the park, you think you guys could come here and then we head to the house?"

"Of course! I'll see you in a bit!" she gave Matt the directions to the park. When they arrived there, they saw Puck coming out of Kurt's car running to them.

"Ok, tomorrow, there's no way I'm traveling with lady-pants! He made me listen to the whole soundtrack of Wicked!"

"A little culture, never harms Puckerman!" they heard Kurt say coming out of his car. Rachel laughed at them and started looking for Blaine. They saw a lot of people in the middle of the park and when they went to see what was going on, Rachel spotted Blaine.

"There he is!" she said pointing at him.

"Oh my! There IS a God!" Kurt said smiling.

"RAY?" Blaine said when she looked at Rachel. He ran over to her and carried her, spinning her around. "Oh my God! I've missed you so much! How are you?"

"He's gay remember? Don't kill him!" Matt told Mike who was glaring a little at Blaine.

"I'm great!" she said smiling. "Oh, these are my friends! This is Matt, Noah, Mike, Artie, Mercedes, Tina, Brittany and Kurt" she said smiling. He said hi to all of them and then turned to Matt.

"So, have you been taking care of my Ray?"

"Why do you call her Ray?" Brittany asked.

"She's my Ray of Sunshine" he said smiling.

"That's adorable!" Kurt said with dreamy eyes.

"How did you guys meet?" Tina asked him.

"Detention" Blaine said.

"Detention?" Puck said smirking at Rachel.

"Yes, I was in there because I talked back to our teacher, but our little Rachel here stole the frogs we were supposed to dissect for chemistry."

"You stole the frogs?" Artie said laughing a little.

"They were gonna kill them!" Rachel said. "I wasn't going to let that happen." They kept on telling stories about each other and then Blaine said.

"Oh my God I still remember when we sang in the park, so we could get money to buy you those shoes?" he said pointing at Rachel's shoes.

"I thought you were rich" Brittany told Rachel.

"No, my parents were, I wasn't" she said smiling.

"You actually sang in the park?" Mercedes asked her. She nodded and saw that a group of boys was there singing. Blaine looked at her smiling and pulled her with him. The other guys saw them talking to the group and then…

[Rachel, Blaine, Both, Everyone]

Dum dum dum dum…

You think I'm pretty without any makeup on

You think I'm funny when I tell the punchline wrong

I know you get me so I let my walls come down, down [she sang looking at Mike]

Before you met me, I was alright but things

Were kinda heavy, you brought me to life

Now every February, you'll be my valentine, valentine [he looked at Kurt, but he handed a flower to Rachel, who did a dreamy face and smiled at him]

Let's go all the way tonight

No regrets, just love

We can dance until we die

You and I will be young forever

You make me feel like I'm living a

Teenage dream the way you turn me on,

I can't sleep

Let's runaway and

Don't ever look back, don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me

Just one touch now baby I believe

This is real so take a chance and

Don't ever look back, don't ever look back

We drove to Cali, and got drunk on the beach

Got a motel and built a fort out of sheets

I finally found you, my missing puzzle piece

I'm complete

[She saw Tina sitting on Artie's lap and Puck kind of dancing with Brittany. Mercedes was dancing with Kurt. And Mike and Matt were smiling at her]

Let's go all the way tonight

No regrets, just love

We can dance until we die

You and I will be young forever

[She started dancing with Blaine but kept looking at Mike, who was smiling at her]

You make me feel like I'm living a

Teenage dream the way you turn me on,

I can't sleep

Let's runaway and

Don't ever look back, don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me

Just one touch now baby I believe

This is real so take a chance and

Don't ever look back, don't ever look back

Coz your hearts racing

In my skin tight jeans

Be your teenage dream tonight

Let you put your hands on me

In my skin tight jeans

Be your teenage dream tonight

Ooooh

Tonight, tonight, tonight...

Yeah

You make me feel like I'm living a

Teenage dream the way you turn me on,

I can't sleep

Let's runawayand

Don't ever look back, don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me

Just one touch now baby I believe

This is real so take a chance and

Don't ever look back, don't ever look back

Coz your heart racing

In my skin tight jeans

Be your teenage dream tonight

Let you put your hands on me

In my skin tight jeans

Be your teenage dream tonight

When they finished the song, everyone in the park started cheering for them. They went to the guys who congratulated them and Mike came to hug her. "You were amazing" he told her. After a while, they left to Blaine's house.


"Wow! This place is huge!" Artie said walking in.

"Make yourselves at home!" Blaine said. "Literally, there's no one so you pretty much can do what you want" he showed everyone where they were staying. Matt was staying with Artie; Puck was staying with Mike, Rachel, Brittany and Kurt were staying together and Tina with Mercedes.

"Ok, I love you! You are my favorite person in the whole world!" Kurt told Rachel hugging her, when they were in their room.

"I told you!" she said smiling. "I'll be right back! I have to talk to Blaine."

She went to Blaine's room and walked in.

"Hey! What if I had been naked?" he asked her.

"Well, you're not! And if you were, I would've gone to grab Kurt" she said laughing. "So, what do you think?"

"About Kurt? He's cute, but we just met munchkin."

"I mean about everyone! In general!"

"They seem nice, and real, unlike everyone here" he told her. "So, what do you guys want to do tonight?"

"PARTY!" she said smiling. He laughed at her.

"Ok, I'll go make some calls."


When Rachel came to her room, she didn't see Brittany or Kurt. She was going to go find them, when her phone started ringing. She didn't recognized the number so she picked up.

"Hello?"

"Well hello babe!"

She froze. "STOP CALLING ME YOU JERK!" she yelled at him. She didn't notice Puck standing on the door.

"Oh, come on don't you miss me?"

"Stay away from me"

"Listen you slut! I told you, you can't talk to me like that! Listen to me Rachel I know where you are! I would come get you! And I will make sure no one interrupts us this time!"

Rachel started shaking; Puck walked in and grabbed the phone from her hand. "Listen you piece of shit! If you ever call her again I will make sure that's the last thing you do!" he said hanging up the phone. "Are you ok Rach?" he said walking to her. She nodded. "What did he say?"

"He said he was looking for me" she lied a little.

"Look Rach, we won't let him near you! You know that right?"

"Yeah I know. Thank you Noah" she said hugging him. "What are you doing here?"

"Oh, right I came to ask you to help me to ask Brittany to be my girl."

"OH MY GOD! This is so exciting! She's gonna be so happy! Oh, oh! Maybe you could go on a picnic! Or, or you could take her to dinner! Or OH MY GOD I KNOW!" she said bouncing up and down.

"Could you calm down? You're starting to scare me."

"SING HER A SONG! Owwww that would be so romantic! You should totally do that! We could go to a Karaoke bar! There's one near by! And then you could sing her a song!"

"That's a great idea!" Puck told her. "I know exactly what to sing! Thanks midget!" he said kissing her head and walking out of the room. She went downstairs and saw Blaine talking to Kurt. They were laughing about something.

"Uh, am I interrupting something?" she asked them smirking.

"Just Kurt telling me how he met you" Blaine said. She blushed a little. "So, what's up with you and this Mike guy?"

"Kurt!" Rachel said looking at him.

"Hey! I saw the way you looked at him when we were singing!" Blaine told her.

"Can't you guys talk about something that is not making fun of me?" Rachel told them.

"Actually, we did! We have a lot in common" Kurt told her.

"Yes, we're both only child"

"We love Broadway"

"Our favorite song is Defying Gravity"

"And we both think Puck's body is flawless" Kurt finished.

Rachel looked at them with a weird look. "Ok, if you ever tell Noah the last one, I wanna be in the room please!" they laughed a little. "Hey, B, could we go to the Karaoke Bar that's near here instead?"

"Oh my God! That would be wonderful!" Kurt said.

"Sure Ray! That'll be fun" Blaine told her.

"Great! I'll go tell everyone!" she said walking away. She told Artie and Tina who were at Tina's room. She saw Matt, Brittany and Mercedes in the living room and let them know. Finally she went to Mike and Puck's room. She found Mike with his earplugs on.

"Hey" he said when he saw her, taking them off.

"Hi, I came to tell you that we're gonna go to a Karaoke Bar" she said smiling.

"Sounds fun" he said. "How are you feeling?"

"Um, better thanks. Jesse called again" she said looking down.

"What?" he said a little angry. "What did he say?"

"He said he's looking for me. But Puck came in and he grabbed the phone and told him to leave me alone."

Mike didn't know what to say, so he just hugged her. She pulled away a little and they looked at each other. He was leaning a little to her.

"Rach?" Matt said coming in with Puck. Worst timing ever Matty! She thought. "Puck told me about Jesse."

"What about Jesse?" they heard Blaine coming behind Matt.

"He called Rachel and said he's looking for her" Mike told him.

"Yeah, but I told him to leave her the fuck alone" Puck said.

"Huh, maybe if he heard a boy with you, he would" Blaine said.

"I don't know if that's enough" Matt said.

"Hey he can't fight the four of us" Mike said.

"Right, well, I'm gonna go get ready while you get all Four Brothers on him" Rachel said standing up and walking out of the room. She went to get ready with Brittany, Mercedes and Tina. When they walked down, all of the boys were sitting in the living room waiting for them.

"You girls look gorgeous!" Blaine told them. "Ok, I made reservations so, let's get going."


Once at the bar, Rachel pulled Puck aside.

"So, what song are you singing?" she asked him.

"I'm not telling you! You'll tell everyone!" he said.

"Rachel! Would you sing a song with me?" Brittany said grabbing her by her arm.

"Sure Britt! Let's go pick one."

While they were picking a song, Rachel noticed Blaine talking to Matt.

"So, I finally meet the famous Matt" he told him.

"Yeah, I finally meet the famous Blaine." Matt said. "Hey, look I just, I know it may be crazy but I wanted to thank you for helping her. I'm the only one of us that knows exactly what happened. The other ones just know that she ran away from home and that her ex is an asshole."

"Yeah I figured that, seeing you were the most mad about him calling her. It's nice to see her so happy again. I'm glad she's in good hands."

"Yeah, you don't have to worry about that."

"Hey Matt" Mercedes said coming to them. "I was wondering if you would like to sing a song with me."

"Of course!" Matt said smiling.

"Uh, Rachel said she would pick it."

"Um, ok?" Matt said a little nervous.

"YOU GUYS ARE UP!" Rachel said smiling and pulling them to the stage.

[Matt, Mercedes, Both]

I remember what you wore on the first day

You came into my life

And I thought hey

You know this could be something

'Cause everything you do and words you say

You know that it all takes my breath away

And now I'm left with nothing

So maybe it's true, that I can't live without you

Well maybe two is better than one

There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life

And you've already got me coming undone

And I'm thinking two, is better than one

I remember every look upon your face,

The way you roll your eyes, the way you taste

You make it hard for breathing

'Cause when I close my eyes and drift away

I think of you and everythings okay

And finally now, believing

And maybe it's true, that I can't live without you

Well maybe two is better than one

There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life

And you've already got me coming undone

And I'm thinking two, is better than one

I remember what you wore on the first day

You came into my life

And I thought hey

Maybe it's true, that I can't live without you

Maybe two is better than one

There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life

And you've already got me coming undone

And I'm thinking

Oooh I can't live without you

'Cause baby two is better than one

There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life

And I've figured out with all that's said and done

Two, is better than one

When they finished the song, Matt placed a kiss on Mercedes lips and the whole place cheered for them. When they came to the table everyone congratulated them.

"About time!" Rachel said. Matt glared at her a little but mouthed her a 'thanks'.

"Rach can we go next?" Brittany asked.

"Yeah Britt, let's go!" she said walking to the stage. The music started and they started dancing with everyone in the table.

[Rachel, Brittany, Both]

Let's go girls!

I feel like a woman

The guys along with the bar cheered for them.

"That was a lot of fun!" Brittany told Rachel.

"I know it was great!" she told her hugging her.

After them Artie and Tina sang 'Everything I Do, I Do It For You' by Bryan Adams, and then Kurt and Blaine did a duet singing 'Don't Go Breaking My Heart'. [A/N: sorry i didn't post the lyrics, it would've made the chapter way longer] Then all of the boys got up and Matt spoke.

"Uh, we actually want to dedicate this song to my best friend Rachel Berry, who's sitting over there" he said pointing at her. She looked at him with a confused look. "We all love you baby and we want you to be happy, so we wanted to tell you this."

[Matt, Mike, Puck, Kurt, Blaine, Artie, Everyone]

Well I heard you say you would love for a lifetime

And now you complain a lifetime just doesn't feel right, for you

Another casualty of casual love

Another soul out of place, a heart that gave up

Why do we break the promises we make?

Are we living for ourselves?

Don't give up on love and throw it all away

Don't give up on love and let it fall away

When did it become so easy to run from your pain?

Don't give up on love and throw it all away

Don't give up on love

Well I heard you say you can't change a stubborn heart

Yeah I can relate 'cause that's how I feel when I talk with you

Why should it take losing everything

To realize it might be time to change?

Don't give up on love and throw it all away

Don't give up on love and let it fall away

When did it become so easy to run from your pain?

Don't give up on love and throw it all away

Your restless heart won't win 'cause you take but you don't give

And you'll keep moving on until you learn what love is

Yeah your restless heart won't win 'cause you take but you don't give

And you'll keep moving on until you learn what love is

Don't give up on love and throw it all away

Don't give up on love and let it fall away

Don't give up on love

Don't give up on love

Love

Yeah your restless heart won't win 'cause you take but you don't give

And you'll keep moving on until you learn what love is

Don't throw it all away

When they finished the song, Rachel was crying. Tina, Mercedes and Brittany were hugging her. When the guys came to the table, she hugged each one of them.

"Thank you guys, that's the nicest thing someone has ever done for me."

"You're more than welcome, tinker."

"Yeah, doll you deserve it."

"We all love you smurf."

"And we want you to be happy munckin."

"We got your back Rach"

"We're a family midget! Don't forget that." [A/N: if you guess who said what, without looking the other chapters, you win a prize! :) no cheating!]

"Hey, Noah, aren't you singing something else?" Rachel asked him.

"Oh, yeah, I'll be right back" he went to the stage again and said "Uh, this song is for a girl that I have liked, well all my life, and I want her to know how much she means to me."

Wandering the streets

In a world underneath it all

Nothing seems to be

Nothing tastes as sweet

As what I can't have

Like you and the way that

You're twisting your hair round your finger

Tonight I'm not afraid to tell you

What I feel about you

Oh I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

And cannon ball into the water

I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

For you I will

For you I will

Forgive me if I st-stutter

From all of the clutter in my head

Cause I could fall asleep in those eyes

Like a water bed

Do I seem familiar?

I've crossed you in hallways

A thousand times

No more camouflage

I want to be exposed

And not be afraid to fall

Oh, I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

And cannon ball into the water

I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

For you I will

You always want what you can't have

But I've got to try

I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

For you I will

If I could dim the lights in the mall

And create a mood, I would

Shout out your name so it echoes in every room

Well that's what I'd do

That's what I'd do

To get through to you

Oh, I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

And cannon ball into the water

I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

For you I will

You always want what you can't have

But I've got to try

I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

For you I will

For you I will

For you I will

He sang the whole song looking at Brittany, and when he was done he came to her.

"I love you Britt, and I always have" he told her.

"Really? I have loved you since our first kiss. But I didn't think you-" he cut her off by kissing her. The girls looked as if they were watching a chick flick. After that they went home.


Everyone went to bed, and Rachel noticed Kurt and Blaine stayed in the living room, talking. She went to bed, but she couldn't fall asleep so she texted Mike.

[Rachel] are you asleep?

[Mike] no, what's wrong doll? can't sleep again?

[Rachel] no :( would you go outside with me and talk for a while?

[Mike] of course doll! see you in a bit ;)

She walked out of her room with a blanket and went to the backyard. Seconds later Mike came out.

"Hey doll" he said sitting next to her.

"Hi" she said giving him half of the blanket. He put her between his arms. "Mike?"

"Yeah?"

"If I tell you something, can you promise you won't laugh?"

"Of course doll."

"Remember that I've been having nightmares?" he nodded. "Well, today in the car, when I fell asleep. I didn't have a nightmare. I mean, I don't know why but for the first time in almost five months I didn't."

"You've been having the same nightmare for five months?" he asked worried. She nodded and started to cry a little.

"I'm scared to go to sleep. I hate to have a great day, like today and then when it's over, I can't go to sleep because of that stupid nightmare! I can't sleep through one night without having it."

"Shh, it's gonna be ok, doll" he said hugging her to him. "It's not real, nothing is gonna happen to you."

"It was real once" she said.

"What do you mean?"

"The nightmare that I have every night is about something that happened to me" she said softly. "I'm sorry!"

"What are you sorry for doll?" she just kept on crying "Did someone hurt you Rach?" she nodded. "Look I know you're gonna tell me everything when you're ready! I just want you to know that no one will ever hurt you again!" he said softly. She nodded against his chest.

"Would… would you s-stay with me?" she said between sobs.

"Of course doll, I'm not going anywhere ok? I'll stay with you all night" he said carrying her to his room. He figured he'd tell Puck to go to Brittany's room but when he got there, Puck was already gone. He sat her on his bed and he noticed she was shaking. He grabbed his jersey. "Put this on doll, you're freezing" she put it on and they got in the bed. He hugged her to him and said "I'm not going anywhere doll, try to sleep" she nodded and tried to sleep, but he noticed she still couldn't. He spotted a guitar on the corner of the room and went to get it "I know there are no fireflies outside, so I'll do my best ok?" he opened the curtains a little so they could see the stars. She looked at him a little confused and he started singing.

Look at the stars

Look how they shine for you

And everything you do

Yeah, they were all yellow

I came along

I wrote a song for you

And all the things you do

And it was called Yellow

So then I took my turn

Oh what a thing to've done

And it was all yellow

Your skin

Oh yeah your skin and bones

Turn into something beautiful

And you know

You know I love you so

You know I love you so

I swam across

I jumped across for you

Oh what a thing to do

Cuz you were all yellow

I drew a line

I drew a line for you

Oh what a thing to do

And it was all yellow

Your skin

Oh yeah your skin and bones

Turn into something beautiful

And you know

For you I'd bleed myself dry

For you I'd bleed myself dry

It's true

Look how they shine for you

Look how they shine for you

Look how they shine for...

Look how they shine for you

Look how they shine for you

Look how they shine

Look at the stars

Look how they shine for you

And all the things that you do

"I feel safe when I'm with you" he heard her whisper. She was almost asleep.

"I feel happy when I'm with you" he said hugging her closer before pressing his lips lightly against hers.
