Sorry, but this is basically them all singing a song each, to try and help them cope with what has just happened. Sam will be coming into it soon.
Chapter two - Piece of my heart.
Kurt's POV.
It took us the better part of an hour to find a room with a CD player, that was both, away from patients and in a rather deserted area. Not surprisingly, Rachel had her vast collection of backing track CD's with her. I took them from her and browsed through them. Instantly I saw the song I wanted to sing. I took the CD from its cased and gently popped it into place in the player.
A country beat rang through the room, and I was glad to hear that it was the Faith Hill version. Once my cue came along, I started singing, pouring as much emotion into the words as I possibly could.
Didn`t I make you feel
Like you were the only man?
Didn't I give you everything
That a woman possibly can?
Each time I tell myself
i think i've had enough
well i'm gonna show you baby
that a woman can be tough
Come on, come on, come on and
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart now baby
Take another little piece of my heart
I know you will
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
cause you know you got it
If it makes you feel good
so good
You're out on the street lookin' good
Baby deep down in your heart
you know that it ain't right
No you'll never hear me cryin
you know i cry all the time
Each time I tell myself that I can't stand the pain
You hold me in your arms
and I start singin once again
Come on, come on, come on and
take it
Take another little piece of my heart now baby
Take another little piece of my heart
i know you will
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
cause you know you got it
If it makes you feel good
so good
each time i tell myself
that i can't stand the pain
you hold me in your arms
and i start singin once again
so Come on, come on, come on and take it
Take another little piece of my heart now baby
won't you just take it
Take another little piece of my heart
i know you will
and you will break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
cause you know you got it
If it makes you feel good
oh so good
Take another little piece of my heart now baby
won't you just take it

take another little piece of my heart my heart my heart my heart my heart
take another little piece of my heart now baby
won't you just break it
break another little piece of my heart my heart my heart my heart my heart.
When the music faded out I stopped singing, and saw Rachel and Mercedes open mouthed at my rendition.
"Kurt, that was fantastic," proclaimed Rachel, hugging me tightly. "Cedes, do you want to go next?"
"Sure," replied Mercedes.
Mercedes POV.
I have to admire Rachel, I know she can be unbearably annoying at times, but it is the moment like these where she truly shines. I walked to the bed where Kurt had left the vast array of CD's and looked through them. I saw one, that wasn't the most fitting, but I thought I'd sing it, to show Rachel and Kurt I know how they feel.
I strode to the CD player and changed the CD's. When I pressed play I heard Kurt gasp in sad delight behind me. The piano tune sung through the room and I began to sing.
You're everything I thought you never were
And nothing like I thought you could've been
But still you live inside of me
So tell me how is that?
You're the only one I wish I could forget
The only one I'd love enough to not forgive
And though you break my heart, you're the only one
And though there are times when I hate you
Cause I can't erase
The times that you hurt me
And put tears on my face
And even now while I hate you
It pains me to say
I know I'll be there at the end of the day
I don't wanna be without you babe
I don't want a broken heart
Don't wanna take a breath with out you babe
I don't wanna play that part
I know that I love you
But let me just say
I don't want to love you in no kind of way no no
I don't want a broken heart
And I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl...No...No
No broken-hearted girl
I'm no broken-hearted girl
Something that I feel I need to say
But up to now I've always been afraid
That you would never come around
And still I want to put this out
You say you've got the most respect for me
But sometimes I feel you're not deserving me
And still you're in my heart
But you're the only one and yes
There are times when I hate you
But I don't complain
Cause I've been afraid that you would've walk away
Oh but now I don't hate you
I'm happy to say
That I will be there at the end of the day
I don't wanna be without you babe
I don't want a broken heart
Don't wanna take a breath with out you babe
I don't wanna play that part
I know that I love you
But let me just say
I don't want to love you in no kind of way no no
I don't want a broken heart
And I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl...No…No
No broken-hearted girl
Now I'm at a place I thought I'd never be…Oooo
I'm living in a world that's all about you and me…yeah
Ain't gotta be afraid my broken heart is free
To spread my wings and fly away
Away With you
yeah yeah yeah, ohh ohh ohh
I don't wanna be without my baby
I don't wanna a broken heart
Don't want to take a breath with out my baby
I don't wanna play that part
I know that I love you
But let me just say
I don't want to love you in no kind of way..No..No
I don't want a broken heart
I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl..No..No..
No broken-hearted girl
Broken-hearted girl No…no…
No broken-hearted girl
No broken-hearted girl.
The music cut out and I stopped. Rachel was the first to speak. I turned to her and she had tears streaming down her tanned face. "Mercedes, you truly are amazing. You almost sang it better than Beyoncé herself."
I walked to the petite Jewish girl and hugged her tightly. Rachel very rarely gave praise, but this made Mercedes feel a compassion towards the tiny diva like never before.
"Your turn my dear," I said sweetly.
Rachel's POV.
The mood was more sombre than ever, I could barely stand it. I wanted to sing something uplifting, but it would be unfitting to the situation. "This song has always held a place in my heart, and I think it's the most fitting song, other than the songs that you guys have already sung."
"Go for it, Girl" said Kurt sadly.
I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Because your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
By this stage I could feel the tears stinging my eyes, I opened them and saw Mercedes and kurt freely sobbing too.
You used to captivate me
by your resonating light
But now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me.
I stopped singing and collapsed on the bed, feeling to drained to go on, Mercedes and Kurt joined me.
"Rachel you have no idea how stunning that was," Kurt said.
"Y - Yeah Rachel, you should be proud of yourself," agreed Mercedes, chocking back her tears.
"Thanks guys, you have no idea how great if feels to have someone here to talk to right now,"
"I know, Rachel, if it wasn't for Mercedes, I don't know what I'd be doing right now," sobbed Kurt.
