He did it again (chapter 5)
We had been doing lots of intense rehearsing for sectionals which was in 1 month, every year we have won sectionals and last year we won nationals, but because this was our last year Mr Schue wanted us to make it spectacular, even vocal adrenaline didn't rehearse as hard as we were, this wasn't good for me, or for Rachel, it left us feeling exhausted and nauseous, Rachel had to run out and throw up 3 times during one rehearsal, I wasn't throwing up anymore which was such a relief, but it still felt nauseous.
Everyone in the glee club had found out about me being pregnant when my belly became massive, and it had only been 5 months as well, but I was already starting to look like a whale, I could tell she was going to be a big baby, I couldn't imagine how big my belly would be by the time I was 9 months, that was quite scary. Rachel had also told everyone because she didn't want to keep it secret if I wasn't anymore, there had been some problems with Santana, well basically she told the whole school about Rachel being pregnant and since then people had been taking the mic out of her, she came to me crying
"Quinn…I cant take this anymore! Everyone is staring, and taking the mic, I can't take it anymore! Help me"
She sobbed; I pulled her into as much of a hug I could manage, as my belly was massive
"Don't worry about it, im gonna give Santana a piece of my mind! I just hope that one day she gets pregnant and then she will know how it feels"
Rachel pulled away from the hug and smiled at me
"T-t-thanks Quinn, I just feel like crying all the time at the moment, im so depressed"
I patted her back and said
"No problem, that will just be hormones, it happening to me too, now im gonna go and find Santana"
And I walked off to the gym hall which is the mostly likely place that Santana will be during lunch, she spends nearly all her time in there, so do all the cheerios, I swung the door open, and there she was sitting in the corner with Brittany talking and texting, which knowing Santana was probably 'sexting' as that's all she ever seems to do, I headed over to them
"Santana!"
I called, she stood up
"What do you want tubbers"
A mixture of being angry with Santana, and pregnancy hormones, made me really want to bite her head off, well not literally, but with words
"How would you like it if you were pregnant, if you were as fat as I am, and if your dreams had been crushed because of getting pregnant? I know that you would be feeling bad because of a mixture of different hormones, and throwing up a lot, so don't you DARE take the mic out of Rachel, or me, if you don't want your head bitten off, metaphorically"
Santana gave me an evil glare and walked off, I don't think she paid any attention to anything I said, just like her, Brittany walked over to me
"While does your belly look like a beach ball?"
She looked really confused; I just giggled slightly and muttered
"Im pregnant Brittany"
Brittany gave me another confused look, and then walked off, I made my way out to find Rachel, I saw her and Finn at the end of the hallway, and they were kissing, I stood there not wanting to interrupt anything, he pulled back from the kiss and said
"I love you"
She jumped half a foot in the air, but when she landed back on the ground she burst into tears, he gave her a massive hug and patted her on the back. Her eyes were all red and puffy from crying and Finn looked terrified, I guess he still hadn't recovered from the shock of finding out about Rachel being pregnant. I felt myself getting all hot, my hormones were going crazy, and I hated it. I walked over to them.
"Hey guys, I talked to Santana Rachel, im sure she wont bother you anymore, and if she does I'll have something to say about it, you ready to go for your sonogram?"
Rachel just smiled and nodded, so we walked to my car and made our way to the doctors.
We sat anxiously in the waiting room at Rachel's doctors, Rachel was squeezing Finn's hand really tight, I could see it going red, I thought she was going to cut off the circulation in it, but he didn't seem to care, she turned to me
"Quinn, what exactly do they do? Im so nervous"
I patted her back gently and said
"Well, they put this gel stuff on your belly, and then they scan it and you can see your baby on the screen, that's all really, Im sure everything will be fine, and it will be just perfect, I worried a lot, but then I found out she was perfect, so I cried a lot, but I didn't need to worry anymore, your baby will be fine"
I smiled at her, and then the doctor came out
"Rachel Berry?"
Rachel stood up, but her legs were shaking like mad
"Can my friends come in with m-m-me, I need the moral support, im s-s-so n-n-nervous"
The doctor nodded and pointed to the room where we had to go, I helped steady Rachel as she walked, she was wobbling like mad, and her face was really pale, I thought she was going to throw up, but she didn't, which was good.
When we got into the room the doctor told Rachel to lie down on the bed while she got set up. Finn sat one side of her, and I sat the other side, she was squeezing both of our hands really tight, the doctor came back out again with the gel stuff and the scanner
"Right sweetie, this is going to be a little cold to the touch, I will move the scanner across your stomach and then you will be able to see your baby on the screen okay?"
Rachel nodded, and the doctor put the gel stuff on her belly, and she winced at how cold it was, the doctor then picked up the scanner and moved it slowly across her belly
"There's your baby, do you want to know if it's a boy or a girl?"
Rachel and Finn both nodded at the same time, the doctor put her stuff away, and looked through some stuff, Rachel said to me
"Are you sure everything will be fine? Im still really nervous"
I patted Rachel's knee and re assured her
"Yes, I am, everything will be fine"
Finn didn't say anything; he just sat there and held Rachel's hand tight, the doctor said
"It's a healthy girl"
Tears started falling from Rachel's eyes, and a massive smile appeared on Finn's face, I smiled at both of them, I knew everything was going to be okay, and I was so happy for Rachel, and Finn as well, but me and Finn hadn't talked much since we broke up and that was such a long time ago now, and I talked to Rachel more, especially recently, we had been talking everyday, the only thing we talked about was pregnancy, but we still talked. The doctor said
"Have you two thought about what you are going to do when the baby is born?"
Rachel looked scared again, she didn't say anything, but Finn spoke for the first time today
"I'll be happy with anything that Rachel wants to do"
I smiled at him, both of them smiled back at me, the doctor said that we could go, so we headed out to my car the drive back to Rachel's house, I had to go home because I was exhausted, but Finn went with Rachel to tell her dad's that she was having a girl, everyone was so happy, I had forgotten about me being pregnant too even though it was obvious, if I looked down I could see my baby bump, but I had forgotten it was there for a while, until I felt kicking again, then I remembered that I was still pregnant and I sighed, starting to get depressed again as I headed home.
Not much really happened for the rest of the month, I spent most of it lying down because I was SO tired, after school most days I would just go to bed as soon as I got home and then not wake up until the next morning, which was a LOT of sleep, and I was still tired after that. I really couldn't wait until this was over.
