Here's chapter 2. All mistakes are mine (if you find any, you can let me know, it will only improve my English).
Spoilers for Season 1 (Quinn's pregnant, and living with Puck).
Also, I don't own Glee, the characters or the song. Obviously.
The Unexpected – Chapter 2
Quinn Fabray was pacing in her room in Puck's house, thinking about Rachel's performance earlier that day. She hadn't given a reaction at that moment, because she was too shocked that Rachel had kind of broken up with her, but now she was determined to win her back. Her earlier fears about sinking even lower in the social hierarchy at school meant nothing now, not without Rachel. She had to do something.
So she started searching through all the music on her computer for the perfect song. When she thought she found it, she worked on it for hours, because if you want to make a grand gesture to Rachel Berry, you have to make sure it's a good gesture. She worked on it longer than she slept that night, and she looked awful the next day, but if it would help in getting Rachel back, it would all be worth it, she thought.
That afternoon, she was ten minutes early for glee practice, which had never happened before. Then she had to wait another ten minutes before mr Shuester finally arrived, and she was pretty much a nervous wreck by the time he came in. But she needed to get Rachel back, and her nerves weren't going to stop her from doing that. So the moment mr Shuester walked, she stood up and walked to the middle of the floor, ready to perform.
"Mr Shue, I'm ready for the assignment."
And without further explanation, she nodded to the band. As soon as the first notes of the song started playing, mr Shuester held up his hand to interrupt, but Quinn didn't give him the chance to speak.
"I know this isn't very different from what I usually sing, but trust me when I say I am beyond uncomfortable with this song. Just let me do this," she said, glaring at Will.
He knew better than to piss off an hormonal pregnant teenager, so he nodded for the band to start playing again. Quinn started singing, at first to everyone and no one, just dancing around in the room.
Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
Now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some
At this point, Quinn walked over to Rachel and kneeled in front of her, singing the next lines directly to her.
I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours
She sung the next verse to her classmates, hoping it to be a message to just be and let be.
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment maybe sing with me
I love peaceful melody
And then she started singing to Rachel again.
It's your God-forsaken right to be loved
loved loved loved loved
So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours
She didn't get to finish the song, because Rachel stood up and ran out of the room again. This time, Quinn didn't hesitate and ran after her. She caught up with her in the hallway, and grabbed her arm to make her stop. Rachel turned around, and she was furious.
"Oh so now you decide to come after me? Where were you yesterday, when mr Shue came looking for me in the girl's bathroom? The girl's bathroom, Quinn! He came looking for me, and not you, so why did you even bother now?"
"I should have," Quinn spoke quietly.
"What?"
"I should have come after you yesterday. I was surprised, and shocked, and hurt, but I should have been the one to come after you, and I'm sorry. I really am," Quinn explained with tears in her eyes.
"You're right, you should have. But at least you did today," Rachel answered, smiling slightly.
"So why the sudden change of heart?" she wanted to know. "You always wanted to keep us a secret, and now you've just outed us to the entire glee club. Why?"
"Because I almost lost you. Look at me: I'm a mess. I'm the school's laughing stock, a statistic cliché. But somehow, you made it bareable. And all I did was make things hard for you. I tried to make you my dirty little secret, and I don't want to anymore. Yes, you're little, and dirty at times," she said with a grin, "but I don't want you to be a secret. I don't want us to be a secret. If there still is an 'us'," she finished, looking at the floor bashfully.
"You're not a mess, Quinn."
Quinn just looked at her with a raised eyebrow.
"Okay, maybe you are. But you're a beautiful mess, and you're my mess," she said smiling.
"I want there to be an 'us', Quinn, but I want there to be a real 'us'. So –"
The rest of her sentence was cut off by Quinn's lips crashing onto hers. Everything that needed to be said, was said through that kiss, and everything they needed to know, they knew from that kiss. They were going to be all right.
They were so lost in each other, neither of them saw the other glee kids and Will, dumbstruck in the doorway of the choir room. It was Kurt who found his voice back first.
"I guess now we know who she was singing to yesterday."
Then he started ushering the others back inside the choir room, giving the two girls some privacy.
FIN
A/N: The song is I'm Yours by Jason Mraz. Also, apparently there are different versions of this song, so if you think the lyrics aren't correct: they are, they just match another version.
Please review!
