When Rachel entered the Glee Club the following day, all the kids were standing up, ready to leave. What was going on? She went to the back of the room as sat as her usual spot when she saw Mister Shuester walking in the choir room with a big smile on his face.

"- Is everybody ready? Kids please sit down I want to tell you a couple things before we get going."

Where were they going? The brunette had no idea but she couldn't ask. And nobody was paying attention to her anyways. So that was it, nobody cared anymore. She wasn't even aware of what the Glee Club had planned and she never missed it. And she still had facebook but nothing unusual happened on her News Feed the night before...
Everybody sat down, but Rachel could see that they all looked really excited and couldn't wait to get up again.

"- First, I want you all to remember that Quinn spent seven weeks in a coma and she is still weak..."

She didn't hear the rest of what the Glee Club coach said. Quinn was awake. Her whole body was shaking, it seemed like she couldn't breathe anymore... Was she having a panic attack? Probably. But nobody was paying attention to her and she knew that she had to stay in the choir room until everybody left or they would all end up hating her more than they already did. But how was she going to deal with herself when she would see Quinn standing up in front of her in the hallways? Because she was not ready to go to the hospital, she didn't know if she was ever going to be ready to face her...

"- Alright, let's go. Please be careful on the road, I'll meet you at the hospital."

They all ran out of the classroom while Rachel stayed behind, alone. She was trying to catch her breath when she heard someone calling her name. Blaine was standing next to the piano. Why did he have to be there every time Rachel wanted to be alone?

"- Do you need a ride or something?"

She didn't move, the tears were out and the only thing she could think about was Quinn. She heard Blaine take a seat next to her but didn't look at him.

"- What's wrong Rachel?"

He took her hand but the brunette refused to look into his eyes.
She cried for a good five minutes with Blaine always holding her hand without a word. Once she finally managed to calm down, she looked at him. She opened her mouth to say something but the words wouldn't come out. It was like her vocals chords were out of order now. She was trapped inside of her own mind without being able to communicate with the outside world and the longer she had waited to finally say something, the harder it was to actually get the words out of her mouth.
Blaine didn't look like he was judging her and Rachel appreciated that. Even if she wanted to be alone, having him here was making her feel a bit better. And she knew that she had to be strong if she ever wanted to be able to face Quinn again.

Blaine's phone rang and he picked it up, without letting go of Rachel's hand.

"- Hello? I'm on my way Kurt."

The words "on my way" made Rachel shiver. She couldn't stand hearing them or seeing them written somewhere. After Blaine hung up, he hugged the brunette and wiped her tears before he said:

"- I have to go to the hospital. I understand that you don't want to see her when all the Glee kids are there but I think that you should think about visiting her on your own. I'm pretty sure Quinn would be really happy to see you."

And then he left.


The small and white hospital room was crowded, all eyes were on her. Quinn Fabray would have been feeling uncomfortable if she wasn't too busy looking for a tiny brunette with a shining smile to show up. Everybody else was there, they were even singing her a song but Quinn was not listening, she wanted to see Rachel.
She barely remembered the accident, apparently she had been in a car crash and in a coma for seven weeks, but really it felt like she was just waking up from a good night of sleep. And it would have been nice to have all her friends sing her a cute song every morning but right now was not exactly the right time to do it. Especially since nobody would tell her what happened to Rachel.
At the end of the song, all the Glee kids lined up to hug Quinn who awkwardly smiled to every single one of them. They all told her how they missed her and how scared they were that she would not make it but it didn't really make any sense to the blonde who was still feeling really numb and sleepy.

Blaine was the last one to hug her. Just when he was about to end the hug and Quinn was getting ready to thank him for whatever compliment he had to say, he whispered in her ear:

"- I'm sorry if Rachel isn't...
- Is she okay?"
Quinn cut him off.
"- Not really. Can I come back later to talk to you in private?

- Yes please."

What did that "not really" mean? The former cheerleader was asking herself so many questions she was wondering why her head hadn't exploded yet. The last thing she remembered was going home to pick up her bridesmaid dress to go to Rachel's wedding and hopefully talk to the brunette to make her cancel it. She couldn't stand looking at the brunette slowly destroying her life with a man that wasn't right for her. Just thinking about it was making her want to punch someone, herself. Because she was so jealous.
She wasn't jealous of Rachel, she was jealous of Finn. She hated how he was holding her hand in the hallways, how he was eating her face out between classes, how he was singing to her in Glee Club, she wanted to be the one doing all those things to her. Because she knew it now, she was in love with Rachel Berry.
She had been in love with her for a while now but she only realized what that feeling was when she found out that Finn had proposed to her. When the brunette had told her about it in McKinley's bathroom, Quinn's heart had stopped beating and she remembered looking at the brunette thinking "Please don't marry him, I love you.". It wasn't about her being gay or bi or anything else. It was just about her falling in love with the most amazing person she had ever met in her entire life.
And now that Blaine was telling her that Rachel was not okay, Quinn just wanted to get up, leave the hospital and run to find the girl she loved and make her feel better. But she couldn't.
Blaine smiled and followed the rest of the Glee Club out of Quinn's room. Santana was the only one still in the room. She was sitting next to her friend, looking at her with a small smile on her face.

"- I missed you Quinn. I know everybody told you that but... I really did.
- I...
- This is awkward."
said Santana, looking away.
"- No, I guess that I'm just not used to you telling me you missed me.

- A lot of things happened you know. I think we've all changed a lot since the accident."

Quinn couldn't help but feel bad for making all these people suffer. She had no idea they actually cared that much about her and it felt really good but... The one person she wanted there more than anything wasn't, and she wished she knew why.

"- I'm sorry..." said Quinn.
"- Why would you be sorry? It's not your fault.

- I kind of feel like it is. I wake up and all I see is people crying and telling me how hard these past weeks have been.

- You got hit by a truck Quinn.
- I know but...

- Stop blaming yourself. Thank God you're still alive, that's all we need to focus on right now. Okay?"

Quinn nodded. Santana got up and kissed her forehead.

"- I'm so happy you're back. Do you want me to come see you tomorrow?

- Sure.

- Take care Quinn."

She smiled and got out of the room leaving Quinn alone in her white bed surrounded by white walls. Where the hell was Rachel?
