Well here's Chapter 2. :) Thanks for the reviews! Let me know what you think. ;)
November 2009
Rachel looked back at the Glee Club members sitting behind her. This year Quinn, Brittany, Santana, Finn, Puck, Kurt, Mercedes, Tina and Artie had made it into the Glee Club this year. Rachel looked at Quinn, Santana and Brittany then turned her attention on Mr Schue who was writing on the board.
Nothing serious had happened to Rachel since the start of the year. The only thing Rachel was going through was name calling. Rachel leaned back in her chair and wondered why no one really liked her. Cause she was smart? Cause she had dreams of becoming a star? Cause she was the youngest in their year? Rachel didn't understand why people didn't like her.
"Right guys, we have Sectionals this April. I want to do today is pick out some songs we could sing." Mr Schue said to the Glee Club. "Any ideas?"
Nearly most of the Glee Club raised their hands.
"Okay Kurt." Mr Schue said pointing at Kurt.
"Single Ladies." Kurt said.
"Maybe." Mr Schue said back. "Any other ideas?"
"The Climb." Said Rachel.
"That could be a good song." Mr Schue said. "I need to write these ideas down."
"I'll do it." Rachel said as she took out her notebook and started writing the ideas down.
"Okay, we need more ideas guys." Said Mr Schue.
"Bad Romance!" Said Quinn.
Mr Schue smiled. "Yes! That's another great song! Any more?"
"Hey Soul Sister." Said Kurt.
"Teenage Dream." Said Santana.
"Okay. Guys we have a lot of song ideas." Mr Schue said as Rachel handed him the list of song ideas. "Now all we have to do is pick a song for you guys to sing on front of the class so I can pick solos. We don't have enough time right now so could you guys have a song ready for the next day?"
The group nodded Mr Schue smiled. "Okay guys I'll see you all tomorrow." Rachel grabbed her bag and walked out of class. As she walked out of class she felt herself being pushed hard against the lockers. She fell to the ground after hitting the locker.
"Get out of the way, Berry!" She heard Santana say. Rachel knew straight away that Santana was the one who pushed her against the locker. Rachel felt someone touch her arm. She looked up to see Finn standing behind her.
"Are you okay, Rachel?" Finn asked as he pulled her up.
"Yeah. I'll be fine. Thanks." Rachel smiled.
"No problem." Finn said as he picked up Rachel's bag and gave it to her. "I'll see you tomorrow?"
Rachel smiled again. "Yeah, Bye Finn."
Rachel walked down the empty hallway towards her locker. When she got to her locker she took her coat out and put the books she didn't need away. She closed her locker and as she turned around she felt something hit her face. It was freezing cold and it burned her eyes. She couldn't breathe cause of how cold it was. She heard laughing and she turned around to see who was there. She couldn't really see but she could tell it was the football players. She looked closely and saw Puck.
After a few minutes Rachel got her things and went into the bathroom. She looked in the mirror and saw that she was covered in blue. She then realized that they threw a slushie at her. The front of her red sweater was stained from the slushie. Rachel got her hair brush from her bag and brushed her hair back. After her hair was tied back she washed most of the slushie off her face. She noticed a bruise forming on her arm from where she was pushed into the lockers. Rachel put on her coat, picked up her bag and started walking home.
"I'm home." Rachel shouted as she took off her coat.
"Rachel? What happened to you?" Hiram asked as he went into the hallway.
"What do mean?" Asked Rachel.
"Your sweater." Hiram said.
Rachel looked down at the stain on her sweater. "Oh! That's nothing. Some guys were messing around throwing slushies and I got hit. Don't worry about it."
"Okay sweetie. Go get changed. Dinner will be ready in a little while."
"Thanks dad." Rachel said as she went into her room.
When Rachel went into her room and lay down on her bed. She didn't understand why she couldn't being herself to tell her dad the truth. She went into the bathroom and took a shower then afterwards she went back into her room. She sat up on her bed with her laptop on her lap. She didn't want to go onto her MySpace. She knew the cheerleaders would just put nasty messages on her page. She went into her music player to try and find a song she could sing in Glee Club. She spent nearly an hour online trying to pick a song. She finally picked Defying Gravity as her song. Rachel heard her dad calling her for dinner. She turned off her laptop and put it on her desk before leaving her bedroom.
"Okay. Guys I've chosen who should have the solos for Sectionals." Mr Schue said the next day in class. He just finished up listening to the Glee Clubs auditions for solos. "The male lead is going to be Finn Hudson and the female lead is Rachel Berry."
Rachel smiled and looked at Finn. He looked at her and smiled back.
After Glee was over the class got ready to leave. Rachel was about to leave when she someone came up beside her. She turned around to see Finn.
"Well done Rachel." Finn said. "Your going to do great at Sectionals."
Rachel smiled. "Thank you Finn. Your going to do great too."
Rachel walked down the hallway towards her locker when she felt her hair being pulled from the back. She was pulled into the girls bathroom before she had a chance to scream. Rachel looked around to see Brittany, Santana, Quinn and 2 other cheerleaders standing around her.
"Well done on your lead solo Berry." Quinn said.
Rachel was standing against the wall while Santana and one of the cheerleaders she didn't know were holding her wrists tightly.
"Let me go!" Rachel shouted.
"Or what?" Said Quinn. "Will you tell your dads?"
"Rachel's a smart girl." Said Santana. "She's knows that if she tell's anyone this will only get worse."
Santana walked on front of Rachel while Quinn took Rachel's wrist. Santana slapped Rachel across the face. Rachel felt tears fall from her eyes.
"Come on girls. Let's go." Said the other cheerleader Rachel didn't know.
Santana grabbed Rachel and pushed her to the ground.
"Don't you dare tell anyone about this!" Santana said before leaving with the other cheerleaders.
Rachel watched them leave and started crying once they were gone. She looked at her wrists. They were red from when she was held against the wall. She stood up and looked in the mirror. Her eyes and face was red. Her head hurt from her hair being pulled. Her cheek hurt from being slapped. When Rachel calmed down she made sure no one was in the hallways before she left.
