Chapter 2 Fearing the Worst

Rachel's POV

As I sit in the cab on the way to the hospital I can't help but worry about Quinn. I had gotten then call just 10 short hours ago. Dr. Millard had been very cryptic over the phone not offering much info on Q's condition. Just saying she was in bad shape and they needed me there to make care decisions because apparently I was the only person they could get a hold of.

After hopping off the phone I grabbed my laptop and immediately got to work trying to find the soonest flight out. 4 hours later I was on a plane to L.A. So now here I am sitting impatiently in this taxi my mind racing fearful of what I'll find once I get to Quinn. But in these moments of worry and fear my brain keeps telling me 'She's ok, she's a fighter Rachel just relax.'

Before I know it the taxi pulls up to the front door of the hospital. I quickly get out paying the driver on my way out the door before quickly bolting into the hospital and up to the receptionist desk. Where I find 2 young people about my age a male and a female flirting with each other at the desk.

I clear my throat in a polite attempt to get their attention. But much to my irritation they continue to ignore me. Still trying to maintain my composure although my blood is boiling at the moment I smile and politely say "Excuse me I…." but before I can finish my sentence the receptionist a pretty young brunette with curly hair holds up her finger before turning and telling me "I'll be with you in a minute.."

Now I try to be a very nice person and avoid getting angry at all cost but there was something about my deep rooted worry over my beautiful Quinn and this girl's snide attitude that had me at my breaking point. So I reach over and tap her on the shoulder she turns to me rolling her eyes "Yes Mam?" She says a noticeably nasty and irritable tone in her voice.

So I just smile and reply in a soft polite tone "Do you recognize nice me?" I ask sweetly "No should I?" She says shooting me a puzzled look "Well my name is Rachel Berry and I'm a Broadway actress." I say a small smirk hanging from the corner of my mouth "OK?" she says still not getting the picture.

I sigh before clearing my head and deciding to go a different route. "I have a lot of money and I'm a big deal on Broadway, so all it would take is one big donation to this hospital, and they would give me a say in tossing who ever I want out on their ass, and that could possibly be you and your boy toy if you don't help me..." I say smiling softly as I lean against the desk for support "Oh I'm so sorry how can I help you?" She says both of them instantly snapping to attention as the flustered young girl slides over to her computer.

"I'm looking for Quinn Fabray..." I reply sweetly before the girl sets to work rapidly typing on the keyboard of the computer in front of her "Ms. Fabray is in the ICU Room 312, I'd be happy to show you..." She says softly an anxious look in her eye "No that's alright, thank you for your help..." I say before turning and walking to the elevator the knot in my stomach resurfacing as I feel the whole world spinning around me

All of the noise around me fading into the background as I find myself thinking 'What happened to you Q?' A few minutes later I hop off the elevator and walk over to the nurse's desk hoping that the young nurse sitting there is more helpful than the receptionist I just encountered. "I'm here for Quinn Fabray?" I say smiling softly at the young woman

"Oh you must be Rachel Berry, would like to speak with you before you visit Ms. Fabray…" She says sweetly as she picks up the phone at the desk

A few moments later an older man in with combed over dark grey hair a blue dress shirt and khakis' comes walking up "Rachel Berry?" He asks smiling kindly at me his soft green eyes twinkling in the light "Yes sir" I say nodding my head "Good I was hoping you'd get here soon." He says softly "What's wrong with her?" I ask fear trembling from my voice trying to stay on my feet.

He stops and takes a deep breathe before getting into the details of Q's condition "Well you see Ms. Fabray suffered some significant physical damage from the accident, but there is a little bit of mental damage as well…." He says softly sticking his hands in the back pockets of the khakis my heart starts to sink but I urge him to go on. "What do you mean mental damage?" I ask trying to keep my voice from cracking

"Well she's lost her memory she remembers who she is but that's about it, she doesn't remember much else other than that..." He says placing his hand on my shoulder as I fight the urge to breakdown and sob "So what about the physical damage?" I ask my voice soft an almost broken tone to my words

"Well most of the damage from her car accident is limited to the right side of her body, she has a fractured femur, a broken knee, and multiple breaks in the lower part of her leg, and varying amounts of bruising on her left side…" I try my best to keep it together even though I can't help but think about how scary this must before for Quinn "So is she going to be able to walk again?" I ask softly running my hand through my hair nervously "Of course it'll take a little time but she be back to her old self mentally and physically in no time..." He says reassuringly

"Can I see her?" I ask hoping that I will finally get a chance to see Q so that I can sit by her bed and comfort her "Sure, she's sleeping right now, but you can go sit with her if you'd like..." He says before leading me down the hall to her room... I give the older man a quiet thank you before stepping into the room and what I see nearly takes my breathe away.
