Hey guys! thank you so much for all your awesome reviews!
So here's the next chapter! I'm sorry it took so long, i'm really busy with my other stories and schoolwork. But here it is! Hope you like it!
He was only slightly panicking inside. Oh my god oh my god oh my god! What do I say? Did Shelby tell her I was here? She's still as beautiful as a year ago… OH MY GOD SHE'S REALLY HERE. Okay, Jesse, breathe. Just do something… stare at her, maybe she'll wake up.
So he stared at her. He followed every curve of her body with his eyes, she lost wait, he noticed.
After a half an hour she started groaning. She opened her eyes slowly, revealing the big brown irises. She noticed he was still staring at her with a huge smile and cleared her throat, standing up.
"So." She started.
"So." He looked down at his lap, clearing his throat too.
"Hi."
"Hi…"
"Hi."
"Rachel."
"Okay okay! …What happened Jesse?" she sighted, she looked sad.
"Well uhm, so I was a little drunk and I drove through a red light and I crashed my car." He said awkwardly. She frowned at him.
"Yes, I could figure that out, I mean what happened with you, Shelby told me you drank and partied and stuff on a regular basis…"
"Oh that, uhm, yeah, it's… fun…" He lied. She looked at him for a few seconds, before sighting again and saying: "The real reason Jess."
He couldn't help but smile at the nickname. But her glare told him it was a dead serious conversation.
"Sure you want to know…?" he answered, watching how a bird fed his tiny baby birds in the tree outside.
She hesitated. "Yes." He sighted and turned to face her.
"Rachel, I-I miss you so much, a-and I'm so, so sorry about everything. I know I'm a monster, a 'soulless automaton', but I regret breaking that egg on your head every single day." She looked at him with her eyes wide open, scared that if she blinked, he would be gone and the nurses would all stare at her from the hallway because, you know, she would be talking to an empty bed. And nearly crying.
He noticed her uncomfortable glare. "Sure?" She nodded, so he went on.
"I was like really depressed my first week at college, so my roommate dragged me to a party of a friend of his. And I drank, and got drunk, and it helped to lose the regret and… pain of missing you so I did it more often…"
She swallowed the lump inside her throat and whispered: "Jesse, I-" He cut her off. "Rachel, please just don't walk away."
She shook her head and stayed where she was.
He was about to say something else when the nurse walked in. "Hello! It's 11:30! Time to eat!"
It was a fat black woman, she looked a bit like Mercedes Rachel noticed. Jesse knew her, she was the one that was always in a good mood.
He nodded and smiled at her, still trying to keep his tears from falling. He hated this about hospitals. The breakfast's too early, the lunch too, and the dinner's too late. She carried a tray with a plate with a weird yellow substance, some carrots and a piece of meat. It was worse than school food!
He saw Rachel getting a text out of the corner of his eye.
She rolled her eyes after reading it and put it back in her bag annoyed. He swore he could read the name Finn. But why did she react that way? Note to self; get back on that.
When the nurse disappeared again she sighted. "Jesse, I missed you too, but how do I know I can trust you?"
He shrugged. "You can't…" There was an awkward silence after this, he stared at his lap feeling her eyes burning in his body.
"Aren't you going to eat that?" she asked, pointing at the tray with her head .
"Not hungry." He whispered. The nurse came back in and their heads flew up shocked. The nurse laughed.
"Whatever it is kids, talk." Jesse gave her an odd look. What did she know?
"I would know. My ex-husband and I didn't talk and we ended up fighting so much the neighbors send the police." Rachel and Jesse looked at each other, trying to keep from laughing. The nurse scribbled something down on a paper and before leaving the room she said: "And we even got arrested. Now we never see each other again. We both have a restraining order, so talk talk talk!" she sang before heading to another patient.
Once she left the room Rachel and Jesse burst into laughing. "She's awesome." She giggled.
"I know, a restraining order?" He laughed.
"That's a good idea." She chuckled. His laugh was gone now.
" Is it?" He asked with his eyes wide open.
"Jesse, a restraining order is for stalkers and creepy people."
"Oh… right…"
"Yeah. Hey, mind if I eat your desert?" She got up and grabbed the muffin from the tray.
"No way! Give me that!" She laughed, and stretched her arm so he couldn't get to it. He gave up and sighted dramatically. "You wouldn't eat it."
"Yes I would!" she cried defensively.
"Rachel, you're a vegan."
"Right… Ugh." She handed him the muffin.
"So, who was your text from? You seemed annoyed?" he asked curiously, taking a bite from his muffin.
"Uhm, Finn. Yeah, he keeps texting me and it's getting really annoying."
"Oh… So you guys aren't dating?" He asked with a smile. He couldn't help it!
"No, not anymore."
The day flew by way too fast for both. They watched funny girl on Rachel her laptop and talked about life on campus.
They both really enjoyed it and Jesse couldn't help but feeling those little tickles in his stomach and those small electrical shocks when she touched him.
He watched her leave and stared at the door for 5 minutes like she would come back through it to tell him another reason why Barbara Streisand is the most awesome person alive. He thought back at how she fiddled with her nails when she told him they had Regionals tomorrow. She was really nervous about it.
Jesse went to bed with a stratified feeling that night. He knew for sure Rachel was going to kick butts at Regionals with her original song.
Rachel on the other hand, just went to bed with a knot in her stomach. A huge knot filled with nervosity.
The next morning they had practice before leaving with the big yellow bus. Rachel sat next to Mercedes, the two bounded a lot since Jesse cracked that egg on her head.
"Hey, Rachel, what's up?" Mercedes asked. She noticed how derived the normally so happy girl was.
"Nothing, just a lot on my mind…" Rachel mumbled.
"You can tell me you know."
"Jesse is back." Mercedes' reaction didn't help.
"You kidding?"
"No. That wouldn't be funny Cedes. He's back. He's in the hospital, I visited him yesterday."
"Why?" She asked unbelieving. Rachel sighted.
"He had an accident with his car."
"Oh lord. So what did he say?" It was hard to not detect the curiosity in her voice.
"He said he missed me and that he was sorry…"
"Oh girl," She gave her a hug. "you can count on me." Rachel nodded. The tears stung in her eyes.
"It's all going to be okay, okay?"
"Yeah… I can't let it ruin the performance" Rachel smiled.
"You bet your ass you can't." Mercedes laughed.
