Sorry for the cliffhanger last chapter guys but it had to be done! I still don't own glee btw :-)

"Santana's condition is stable. We've managed to stop the internal bleeding and we've given her lots of pain medication. She should make a full recovery." The doctor told them.

"And Finn? Please tell me he's okay." Puck pleaded

"I'm sorry. Mr Hudson passed away in the ambulance on the way here. I'm so sorry."

"THIS ISN'T RIGHT! FINN STAYED SOBER SO THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN!" Rachel screamed

Rachel collapsed into Quinn's arms and Puck was shaking, sure Rachel was glad Santana's alive and she'll be okay. But Finn was dead. Her first love. The first person in that school to give her a chance. Rachel cried harder and harder with Quinn doing the same. When Finn's Mom arrived, she explained to her what happened. And how he was completely sober, then watched Burt Hummel as he held his wife who collapsed into his arms. Rachel felt as though she was invading there privacy so went to Santana's room.

"Rachel, what happened? I thought Santana was supposed to be staying at your house?" Maribel Lopez asked Rachel as she entered the hospital room.

"She was Mrs Lopez. We came home from the party and we started talking and she got upset and ran away. I tried to run after her but... She's too fast for me." Rachel sobbed as Mrs Lopez comforted her.

Santana lay on the hospital bed, a heart monitor to her left, and a bag of blood, attached to an IV on her right. She had many cuts and bruises on her face, but still looked beautiful. Rachel took Santana's hand and kissed her forehead. Tears staining her face. Santana was dozing in and out of consciousness, each time she woke up, with a whimper of pain.

"I'm so sorry this happened Maribel. I don't even know why she was in Finn's car!"

"I guess we'll find out when she wakes up. Is the boy Finn okay?"

Rachel let the tears fall as she stood over Santana unable to speak, instead shaking her head 'no' and running out the room.

Rachel ran to the nearest restroom and ran into one of the stalls, locking the door behind her, and vomiting the little food she had in her stomach. She felt so helpless, like she felt when her Dad had died. She looked at her watch, the time was 7.01am. She's been here for hours already. When she walked out of the restroom she was met by an unexpected face:

"Rachel? Quinn called me and told me what happened, I rushed straight over here." Shelby said wrapping Rachel in a bear hug

"Mommy, why is Ray sad?" A small voice asked Shelby. Rachel recognised the baby blonde's voice and escaped her Mothers grasp to scoop the blonde into her arms.

"I'm sorry baby, I didn't mean to cry. Just 'Tana's not very well and I'm worried."

"Is she going to be okay?"

"Why don't you ask her for yourself?" Came the familiar voice of Dr Lopez "she's awake, and she's asking for you Rachel."

Santana was sat up in bed. Her black hair spread out around her pillow, she smiled as her beautiful girlfriend walked into the room.

"Hey gorgeous." Santana greeted her girlfriend. Rachel had been crying. Still wearing her party dress from last night. She looked tired, as she made her way over to kiss her.

"Oh baby, I'm so glad you're okay. You scared me so bad d'you know that?" Rachel cried as she kissed Santana's lips, her cheek, her arms, and her hands.

"Is Finn okay?"

It was Santana's turn to cry. Rachel's long silence answered her question, that no - Finn wasn't okay.

"He didn't make it. He died in the ambulance."

"Oh my god no! Why Finn?!" Santana screamed. Rachel failing to soothe her "we only went a drive! We were talking! I was upset! Then Finn swerved to avoid this guy on a motorbike who was coming towards us and..." Santana screamed as the painful memory was too much, she had to be sedated to calm her down.

Shelby took Rachel back to her house an hour later. Not wanting to leave her on her own. After going for a shower, Rachel curled up in Shelby's bed, next to Beth who was having a nap. Shelby poked her head round the door to make sure they were both okay. She smiled. Rachel and Beth were lying facing each other, foreheads touching. With Beth's small baby hand resting on Rachel's face - presumably to wipe the tears Rachel had shed earlier.

As Shelby returned to her kitchen, she sat on her floor, with her knees up under her chin, as she realised all the precious time she missed out with Rachel. And how much her baby was hurting.

I'm not sure whether I should add more Shelby or less Shelby, let me know what yous think!
