Hey guys! I actually have time to write because I have a concussion so I'm home from school for a bit. This chapter might be a little confusing, just a heads up.

Rachel stayed in her room that whole night. She ignored Santana throughout the night, she would not give into the older girl's pleas. She was fed up with her Latina, why couldn't she just keep her secret? How many secrets had Santana told Brittany? How many things did she think were safe that now may not be. Rachel honestly never thought she would see the day when she didn't trust Santana.

Brittany and Quinn

Brittany didn't understand why Quinn was so upset that she knew she had a crush. She didn't care about it to much, it was just a silly crush, where was the harm?

"Quinn, I don't understand the harm in me knowing. Its no big deal." Brittany talked to her sister while she cooked dinner. Their mom was still kind of a wall.

"It just is Brittany, I didn't want you to be mad at me." Quinn's eyes widen as she realized that she said.

"Why would I be mad Quinn?" Britt wasn't stupid, she could read her sister like an open book.

Quinn needed to come up with a lie, she didn't want to lie to her sister but sometimes she just had to, "I just, I thought you'd be mad that I liked a boy." Quinn looked down. "That's stupid but yeah." She got off the stool and made her way upstairs when her sister caught up with her.

"Love is love Quinn, as long as your happy I'm happy. Are you happy Quinn?"

"yeah, I'm happy Britt." That had to be one of the biggest lies Quinn Pierce had ever told.

Rachel and Quinn

Rachel walked down the hallways following Quinn to make sure nothing would happen to her. She had this odd sense of protection over the older girl. Quinn was hurting and she had to find a way for it to stop. They were both to young for this. So when Rachel saw Quinn and that older boy talking to the weird gym teacher her gut felt weird. It was almost like a sign for her to step in to save the blonde, but her feet were rooted into the ground.

"Quinn you know the deal." She heard the older man say.

"I know." Quinn said defeatedly, she didn't want to do this anymore.

Rachel couldn't hear much but when she heard steps she made a run for it. Something wasn't right, but she didn't know what to do.

Later that day

Quinn cornered Rachel during their lunch period, "Listen hobbit, I'm only going to tell you this one more time. Stop following me and stop running your mouth. What I do is none of your business."

"You can't lie to me, your lying to yourself Quinn. Just be honest with yourself for once. Your so afraid for asking for someone to help you. Everyone thinks your this big bad Quinn but really your just a scarred little girl. Stop lying to yourself for once." Rachel pushed past Quinn and sat with some of her friends leaving a dumbfound Quinn behind.

Even later in the day

Rachel was at her locker grabbing some books for her last period when she saw that older boy kissing Quinn. Gross. But then her gut got that feeling again so she took another look. Quinn's body language was stiff and she was scarred without knowing it she marched over there and shoved the guy off her.

"What the hell." The boy yelled, "Back off hobbit."

"Leave her alone." Rachel said with an unfamiliar edge.

"Make me."

Rachel pushed him again and kicked him until Quinn pulled her off him. She didn't expect the blonde to slap her though, that left Rachel doe eyed and she didn't even realize a teacher had come over and broke them up.

Brittana

"How's your mom?" Santana asks as she holds her blonde tightly to her.

"She hasn't said one word since the funeral, I'm worried about Quinn. What's going to happen after we leave?" Brittany sighed as she rested her head against her Latina.

"I don't know B, but I'm sure we'll figure it out."

"Is Rachel still not.." Two phones ringing cut her off.

They both answered their respected phones and their faces went from mutural to shocked to angry. When they hung up they faced each other and said at the same time, "Quinn and Rachel got in a fight, what the hell?"

Brittana and Faberry

The couple stormed through the middle school hallway and hell had froze over. Their faces unreadable and they only had one mission. Figure out why their sisters got in a fight. No puppy dog eyes or cute pout would save them now. Their asses were going to be in so much trouble.

Rachel's POV

Rachel was nervous, more like scared out of her mind. She knew her sister was going to be so mad at her. Santana fought a lot in high school and she never wanted Rachel to fight like she did. So here she sat in the office looking down rubbing her hands together as if this was supposed to help her. When the door opened up she saw her very angry looking sister and her girlfriend. Britt went to Quinn and Santana walked over to her.

I went to explain to her what happened but she cut me off, "Not one word Rachel, no one." Her face was stone, I wasn't going to mess around with her today, "We are going home and then talk because I'm so mad at you. How could you be so stupid, you fought with Quinn. Out of all the people you go and fight with Q."

"Santana…" she cuts me off once more.

"No Rachel, not now. Not another word." Santana led the way out of the office and I followed her. My sister is pissed and I'm going to be in so much trouble when I get home. If I tell her the truth Quinn is going to be so mad at me, I don't even know the full truth so how could I tell her? One way or another Santana was mad at me and I have to find a way to change that.

Santana's POV

The drive home was silent, as it should be. Rachel should be ashamed of what she did. How could she fight with Quinn, how could she be so stupid. I'm so mad at her right now. I just don't understand why she would do that. As we pull into the drive way I tell her "Go straight to the living room." She wordlessly gets out and does as I tell her to do. That was one thing I'm grateful for, she listens to me now, well for the most part.

"okay Rachel, tell me what your thought process was when you watned to get in a fight." She plays with her hands for a minute and looks up at me,

"you honestly think I wanted to get in a fight?"

"Rachel I don't know what you were thinking." I tell her honestly.

Theres something in her eyes that takes me by surprise. Hurt.

"Really Santana? I didn't want to fight anyone. I was just standing up for Quinn." I could tell she was telling the truth, she's speaking with such passion.

"Then why would you slap her?" I counter back.

"She slapped me Santana. I didn't hit her!" She yells at me which takes me by surprise.

"Do not yell at me Rachel, you're the one in trouble. Not me, I'm trying to help you out." I keep my voice level, "Why would Quinn slap you?"

Rachel looks down at the floor trying to avoid the question or think of a lie to tell me. "Something's wrong with Quinn." She says so quietly that I have to strain to hear it, "I don't know what but you have to help her." When she finishes her voice cracks.

"Save her from what estrella?" I make her look at me.

"I don't know San. I don't know." She keeps repeating herself over and over again. "All I know is that she had this Zack Qwens guy kissing her so I shoved him away because she didn't like it."

What the hell is going on? They're ten years old, did I have this much drama at ten?

Britt's POV

Walking into the office I could tell something was off. I mean yes Quinn and Rach did get into a fight but something was wrong. Rachel looked betrayed and Quinn looked conflicted, something was off and I knew I would have to shift through lies to find the truth.

"Quinn." I call for her attention. She looks up at me with doe eyes, "lets go." She stand up and walks by my side silently. She grabs my hand which surprises me but then again Quinn has been full of surprises. Me and Santana have different ways of communicating. She liks to think but I like to dive into things.

"You wanna tell me what happened?"

"I slapped Rachel, she didn't do anything wrong. I slapped her." She admits softly.

"Why would you do that to her?" She doesn't answer me "Quinn. Why did you slap your friend."

"To protect her." My eyebrows shoot up to my hair line.

"You do realize when you protect someone you generally don't slap them."

Quinn's POV

"I know." I tell her. The quicker I answer her question the less questions she'll ask me.

"The guy she shoved. I didn't want her to get hurt so I slapped her so nothing would happen." She gives me a pointed look.

"And you couldn't have just pulled her off?"

"I didn't think about that." I tell her lamely.

"If that's the truth then Quinn go upstairs and stand in the corner. What you did was wrong, you had the right intentions but you shouldn't have slapped your friend. Go upstairs I'll be up in a minutes." My sister sounds so defeated. This makes me feel even more guilty about everything. I take a step towards her and wrap my arms around her.

"I love you Britt." I say into her stomach.

"I love you too Quinn, now please go upstairs." I make my way up the stairs. This was my own sat little death march.

Later, Britt's POV

Quinn was curled up into my side, she just fell asleep. She likes to stay near me after a punishment and honestly I like to stay near her too. MY phone goes off and I answer it quickly so it doesn't wake up the small blonde in my arms.

"Hey baby." I answer, knowing its Santana.

"Britt, we need to talk, what did Quinn tell you about today?"

"That she slapped Rach so she wouldn't get hurt. I'm…" Santana cuts me off.

"Britt, Rachel is crying telling me some older guy was kissing Quinn and that Quinn slapped her because she attacked him. Rachel thinks Q's in trouble."

"Baby, what are you talking about. I don't understand what your trying to tell me." Okay, now I'm confused.

"Britt, baby I think it would be best if you come over. Rachel said she wanted to talk to you. Maybe I could get Quinn to talk to me, like old times."

"Yeah, sure San. We'll be over in twenty minutes. Love you."

"Love you too b."

I look down at my sister, "Why can't you ever just tell me the truth?"

So I tried to make this chapter longer since its been awhile since I updated this story. I hope you liked it and I hope you were able to follow it, I know it got confusing with all the switching but I think it made it better that you could see it from every ones prospective.
