The tension in the room was at an all time high. Brittany and Quinn sat on one couch; while Santana and Rachel sat on the one across from them. They were all just sitting there looking at each other. Quinn wore a look of complete failure mixed with fear. Rachel glared at Quinn with complete rage. Brittany watched the interaction with confusion and concern; while Santana's face was blank, unreadable.

"Does one of you want to tell me the full story?" Santana asked, still with the unreadable façade.

The room went silent for another two minutes or so. The two younger girls didn't look like they were going to speak up until Rachel muttered out, "I can't believe you cracked."

Quinn immediately tensed, she couldn't quite believe it herself. She wasn't supposed to crack, no one was supposed to; if anything Rachel would be the one to crack not her. Sensing her sister's discomfort, Britt placed her hand on her leg.

"You had this big deal about me keeping my mouth shut. About me being closer to my sister then you were closer to yours. You told me to not be weak. You warned me, when really I should have been concerned about you!" Rachel's voice had a edge in it. "You did this to us!"

"Stop it Rachel." San said firmly "Don't attack Quinn."

"I didn't mean to Rachel…she…I."

"It's okay Quinn, no one's blaming you."

"I'm blaming her!" Rachel screamed standing up. "Why'd you have to tell Brittany? They would have never guessed Quinn! They didn't have a clue on what was going on! God, they wouldn't have figured out, Santana thought my dad was hitting me! Why'd you have to just be a big mouth and tell them! Your weak!" the small brunette was heavy after her rant while the smaller blonde was silently crying.

"Enough!" Brittany finally spoke up, "You both will stop blaming each other and you will tell us what the hell is going on. If you don't I'll go straight to our parents about this. Don't think I'm bluffing because I'm very serious about this. So one of you better start talking soon."

Quinn knew from past experience that her sister wasn't joking around. She would go to their parents if they didn't start talking. Rachel would forever hate her if she talked though. Although if she didn't say anything then both parents would know.

"They don't like us." Quinn muttered out, feeling all eyes on her. "They don't like us and they aren't shy about saying it to us. Teachers, students, this whole town hates us."

"Quinn…." Rachel was about to try and get her to stop talking.

"No Rach! If we don't talk then both of our parents are going to know! We can't hide the truth forever! I rather tell Britt about this then my mom, I know for a fact that you would rather talk to your sister then your father. Please can we just drop the act?" When she saw Rachel nod she continued her story.

"Those articles were given to Rachel. She had to write a report on why being gay is bad for society. I didn't want her to write the essay so I took them away from her. You weren't supposed to find them."

Santana interrupted the explanation, "What articles Rach?"

"They were articles about how being gay is bad."

"Why'd your teacher give them to you?"

If the tension in the room was high before it sure did get more intense by that question. It was silent, it was a pregnant pause kind of silent. The two younger sisters didn't answer the question, they couldn't break their older sisters hearts like that.

"Someone answer my question!"

"Because, we're your sisters." Quinn mumbled, looking at her hands.

"What does that have to.." Then it hit the Latina, "Because me and Britt are gay, and your our sisters."

The look on the two older girls face was something the two ten year olds probably would never forget. Brittany's blue eyes filled with tears, she never thought that she could cause her baby sister so much pain by doing nothing. Santana looked like you just punched her in the gut.

"Is that why they hit you estrella?" Santana was barely able to get out.

"Tana…"

"Answer the question Rachel!"

"These older girls just push me around, I'm small Tana I fall over things."

"You don't just fall over things Rachel! I saw the bruises, I saw what they did to you. They can't just accidently do that to you!"

"I try to protect her Santana, I really do." Quinn said softly, afraid to set the older brunette.

San's face soften a little bit, "Thank you Q, you shouldn't have to protect her though. Your both ten years old. No one should have to go through this."

Santana was right. The girls shouldn't have to go through anything like this, but the sad fact of it was that they are going through it and no amount of comforting words is going to change that.

"So let me get this straight so far. The teachers give you essays about homophobic topics, and students push Rachel around." Britt clarified. "Then what do they do to you Quinn?"

Quinn once again stiffened at the questions. She never told Rachel what happened. Sure she told Rachel about the extra laps in P.E but she never went into full detail, she could never talk about that.

"Oh, you know just extra laps at gym, more physical demanding stuff. It really doesn't phase me." Quinn passed off the topic like it was no big deal but the brunette across the room sensed there was something else.

"Quinn tell us the whole truth." Santana said, eyeing the girl down.

"That is the whole truth, I literally run a mile and half during gym class. Why do you think I quit basketball? I know you need to run during basketball but I couldn't keep pushing myself like that. So I quit."

Quinn was only semi lying with that one. The coach really did make her run a lot and do a whole bunch of other things she didn't like. That led her to quit the one thing she really loved to do.

"If that's so then why did you flinch when we asked you?"

"I don't know maybe because this whole situation just really sucks, I'm scared sometimes okay? I don't want to have to deal with what Rachel deals with." Quinn admitted softly.

"Okay."

Santana wasn't done with this investigation. She was going to watch the smaller blonde a whole lot more closely. She was going to watch both of them more often. She wasn't going to allow her and Brittany's relationship effect the two girls childhood. She was going to show them that being guy in society wasn't terrible, it was normal. She wasn't going to let these ignorant lima losers hurt the two girls anymore.

Things were going to change in Lima Ohio, so you better look out.


Hey guys. I know its been a really long time since I updated and I'm sorry. I just really haven't felt the inspiration. I would sit in front of my computer trying to write this but I couldn't. So I figured you all would rather wait for something that was actually good then read something that was crappy. I'll try to update again by Friday or sooner no later then Friday though I promise.

Questions:

What's Quinn's real story?

Mr. Pierce's fate?

Happy or sad about what happened this chapter?

Should Rachel sabotage Quinn because she "Cracked"?

Let me know what you think!
