She awoke for school the next day, Finn was still there he was still holding her she smiled and moved away from him, still not waking him, she tiptoed to the bathroom to get ready.
When she came back he was awake, he looked at her the loving look she loved to see, but now she just saw it as a look, just a look on Finn's face, her body wouldn't allow her to feel anything right now and it really upset her.

"Morning" he said standing up and stretching "Are you sure you want to go into school today?" She nodded and he didn't say anything else, he just nodded and agreed with her.

"I'll have to leave early to go to counselling, I'll miss glee" she said, but she didn't seem like she would 'miss' it just miss the class, it wasn't the same Rachel Berry who would never miss a rehearsal and time to show off her talents, Finn hated this Rachel.

He nodded "Do you need a lift?"

She shook her head "My dad's are taking me, they really want to be there" she said and he nodded in agreement "Don't you need to get ready?" he asked her, noticing he was still wearing the clothes from the night before

He shrugged "I'll be fine" he said

She nodded and went to her wardrobe lifting out a pair of jeans and a black tank top, he sighed as he looked at all the other clothes she had, but yet she chose these, nothing like she ever used to wear, just the plain clothes that helped her blend in, the old Rachel would never want to just blend in.

She returned to the bathroom and got ready, she tied her hair back and washed her face with her clear skin face cream, she may be depressed but she loved having fresh skin, it made her feel good about herself, even though she felt horrible.

She returned from the bathroom and not a ready at Finn, he stood up and they walked down stairs together, Hiram and Leroy were sitting on the sofa watching the morning news, both Finn and Rachel knew they wanted to see if any rapist had been found if the man who did that to their princess was in jail, but they would have known, they just watched it just in case they weren't informed, they both knew that her father's just wanted to know who did this, to get payback on the animal who hurt Rachel.

"Bye Dad, daddy" Rachel said giving each of them a kiss on the cheek.

"Bye love" Leroy said "Don't forget your appointment, we'll meet you outside the school at three" he added

Rachel nodded "I'll be there" she said

"Love you" Both Hiram and Leroy said as she left the house. They both looked at each other, knowing that she was still hurting and there was nothing they could do about it, they shrugged sadly and returned to watch the TV.

Rachel got through the day without having to go to the bathroom and cry, she got through the day without being terrified to walk down that corridor, but she didn't get through the day without thinking about that night, how could she? She felt the baby kick today for the first time, tears sprung to her eyes but she pushed them back, Puck noticed her hand go to her stomach during her maths lesson, he sat next to her and he knew what it was, When Quinn's baby kicked the look on her face was the same except she had less hurt in her expression, he didn't say anything, but he noticed, and when she looked at him he smiled at her.

She asked Principal Figgins permission to leave school early and he granted her it, so that is what she did, her dads met her and exactly the time they said they would and she jumped into the car and drove off with them, she was nervous and she felt sick, she felt like crying or running away but she did neither, she just sat there with her dads, she knew she had to do this.

When her name got called she pushed herself up from the seat and looked at her dad's, she cautiously walked to the room and she opened the door and walked inside, her heart was beating and her palms were sweaty as she sat down on the sofa placed in the middle of the room.

Finn walked into the choir room, most of the other were there, he took a seat as they waited for everyone to arrive. Mr Shue walked in and set down the papers he was carrying, "Afternoon" he smiled at them all "No Rachel?" he asked and looked towards Finn

Finn shook his head and he stood up "She's at counselling" he looked at everyone as their eyes filled with sadness and remorse for Rachel "I want to thank you all" he said and they all looked at him

"For what?" Brittany asked,

He smiled and then sighed "For being there for her yesterday, she's going through a lot and I know how much she's hurting right now and for you guys to be there for her yesterday and to show her that, I could tell it meant a lot to her, so thanks"

"Do you think we would do any different?" Puck asked sounding a little upset that Finn would think otherwise "Look, we may not all like her and we may sometimes think that she is irritating and stuff, but she's part of glee and we're all here for each other through whatever we go through, and if she's hurting were going to show her that she has someone to talk to in each of us if she needs us, and that we will be there with her each step of the way" everyone looked at him strangely, it seemed weird that he would say all that, he was such a badass, or he liked to pretend he was, underneath her was a caring person, and as much as he hated to admit it, he cared for Rachel.

"Rachel may steal my spotlight and get on my nerves a lot, but no deserves to go through what she did, she's amazing for still being in one piece, I know I would have crumbled"

"She's not still in one piece, she puts on a brave face, but underneath everything she's broken" Finn said sadly

"Is there anything we can do for her?" Tina asked

Everyone thought "All we can do is show her how much we love her, we can let her do whatever she wants, if she's not up to singing we can take over and do her part, if she doesn't want to come to glee, we can just ignore it and not ask her what's wrong, and we can keep the school out of her business, she's going to start showing soon and the whole school will know, we can help keep the gossip down, she doesn't deserve everyone's stares or anything" Quinn said and everyone nodded in agreement

"I hate seeing Berry like that" Santanna said "I miss not being able to make fun of her, because I know I seemed like I hated her, but we had an understanding, I really kind of liked her, and now I respect and like her even more" everyone gave her a strange look to, it was strange they were all opening up their feelings, all the grief they gave Rachel was just an act? Each one of them really loved her. She had all the support she needed right there.
