Chapter 4: Welcome To The Jungle
"Wow, guys, I'm sure that was not meant the way it came across." Mr Shue said as he got up and looked over some papers for his next class.
"No, they meant to be that rude. You see, they all hate Finn and myself because we are the golden couple once again. See, Rachel is not my co-captain, god knows how that happened. "She is pretty flexible..." Finn stated, not thinking about how Quinn would take it.
"...But she got the whole Glee club to turn against us!" "Well, Kurt and Rachel told me last night that it's just you they hate..." "WHAT! Why are you talking to them!" Quinn screamed.
"Kurt is my stepbrother, so I do kind of have to talk to him, and Rachel's his best friend, and she pretty much lives with us whenever her dads are away on business trips, which kind of happens a lot. So what choice do I have?"
"Oh Finny, you don't HAVE to talk to the homo" Quinn gave an evil smile. "Quinn! He's my brother. He's a part of me and you can't go around making fun of him. He is one of my best friends." "And Rachel, I suppose she is one of your best friends too huh?" "No, she is my BEST friend, ever! She is th eonly one who gives a shit about me." "So what, I'm just your little girlfriend to get over that bitch Berry?" Quinn asked, tears threatening to fall.
"No, you're my girlfriend." Mr Shuester decided it was probably best to leave at this point, and stalked out the door. "Finn, I want you to come to my house tonight, so I can make it up to you... bring a condom." "...O-Oh Kay." Finn stuttered. Quinn gave a dazzling smile and skipped out the choir room.
Outside, in the hallway
"I think he is gonna break up with her!" Mercedes said. "I damn well think he should. Calling me a Homo. Don't think so bitch" Kurt said as everyone burst out laughing. "Shh, shh, they're talking again." Santana said.
"NO, you're my girlfriend." Finn said. Rachel let silent tears fall down her face as Mike took her in a warm embrace. Suddenly Mr Shuester appeared through the door, and everyone stood back awkwardly trying to look casual. "Hee-y Mr Shue!" they all said to him, before he turned around and headed to his Spanish classroom.
"Finn, I want you to come to my house tonight, so I can make it up to you... bring a condom."Quinn's voice floated through the door, shocking everyone. Mike hugged Rachel tighter to her, as if trying to protect her from the bluntest truth.
"He's going to say no." Puck said, "I know how will."
"...O-Oh Kay." Finn stuttered. His voice was soft but to Rachel it felt like he was screaming in her ears.
"Oh hell to the no!" Mercedes said. Rachel began to cry, and headed out of the school. "Rach" Santana yelled, running after her. Brittany followed.
Quinn walked out the door, evil smile on her face, which quickly turned to pain as Mercedes slapped her. "What the hell Quinn!" Mercedes yelled, "out of all the things you could have done to hurt Rachel, this has to be the worst." "Oh shut it fatty." Quinn remarked as she walked away.
"Hey Q, when you get yourself knocked up again, don't come to me looking for somewhere to stay, you can rot in the streets for all I care.
Artie rolled into the choir room, and seeing Finn crying, he called out to him. "Come here buddy." Artie said, as Finn and he hugged.
Santana and Brittany soon found Rachel down by the creek behind school, she sat on the swing set crying. Santana and Brittany took a seat on either side of her.
Brittany: Chiquita, tell me what's wrong?
Santana:You're enchained by your own sorrow. In your eyes, there is no hope for tomorrow.
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet
Chiquita, tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder to cry on
Your best friend
I'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you've broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together
Chiquita
You and I know
How the heartaches come and they go
And the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Santana and Brittany each took one of Rachel's hands and pulled her off the swing. They lead her down to the creek as they start to remove their shoes and socks and jump into the water.
Chiquita
You and I cry
And the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Sing a new song
Chiquita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song
Chiquita
They all held hands as they started skipping on the stepping stones. They began to giggle like little girls who had just told each other about their first crush's.
So the walls came tumbling down
And your love's a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquita
Tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it?
I see that you're oh so sad, so quiet
Chiquita
You and I know
How the heartaches come and go
And the scars they're leaving
Rachel: I'll be dancing once again, and the pain will end
Santana and Brittany: You will have no time for grieving
Chiquita
You and I cry
And the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song
Chiquita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song
Chiquita
Rachel: Try once more like you did before. Sing a new song, Chiquita.
The three girls let out a scream as Rachel tripped, pulling them all into the icy water. It was silent for a moment before they began to laugh.
"Guys, we should just ditch the rest of school and go shopping, what'd ya think?" Santana asked. "Yeah, but we need to get ready, I'm not going to the mall like this." Rachel said pointidly. "Yea... good point. What say we meet up in 30 in the Lima Bean parking lot, good?" "Awesome."
Once Finn had calmed down, Artie began to interrogate him.
"So Finn, what were you crying about?" he asked. "'Cuz I'm lying to Quinn and Rachel and it's not fair on them! I love Rachel, but Quinn and I are meant to be together... even though I really want to break up with her. You can't tell anyone though Artie, seriously." Finn said.
"Quinn may be hot, but I can't overlook her nasty comments. She hurts Rachel all the time. Truth be told... sometimes I hate her... well, that's a bit strong. I really don't like her." Finn continued.
"I have an idea!" Artie said.
Later that day
"Quinn, I'm sorry it's over, but trashing your room is not going to help!" Finn said, as Quinn pushed her 50" TV off the cabinet and threw her hair brush at the mirror, causing a crack to appear.
"FUCK YOU FINN! NOW HOW AM I GOING TO BECOME PROM QUEEN WITH NO KING! YOU ASSHOLE. I NEED THAT CROWN! I have a fucking closet full of crowns, that I can't even love, because it's not THE crown Finn. I need the crown!
When Quinn turned around and noticed he was gone she screamed again. "FUCK HIM!"
Next day at Glee
"Ok, Quinn, this song is for you. I'm sorry for breaking up with you, and I hope you understand what I'm trying to express through this song." Finn smiled at her.
Yes!Quinn thought to herself. He's going to beg for me back. She plastered a smile to her face.
Love. Love. Love, love, love, love.
You were everything I wanted
You were everything a girl could be
Then I left you broken-hearted
'Cuz you don't mean a thing to me
All I wanted was your love, love, love, love, love, love
Hate is a strong word
But I really, really, really don't like you
Now that it's over
I don't even know what I liked about you
Brought you around
And you just brought me down
Hate is a strong word
But I really, really, really don't like you
I really don't like you
You thought that everything was perfect
Isn't that how it's supposed to be?
Thought you thought that I was worth it
Now I think a little differently
All I wanted was your love, love, love, love, love, love
Hate is a strong word
But I really, really, really don't like you
Now that it's over
I don't even know what I liked about you
Brought you around
And you just brought be down
Hate is a strong word
But I really, really, really don't like you
Now that it's over, you can't hurt me
Now that it's over, you can't bring me down
Oh... Oh... Oh...
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh... Oh... Oh...
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
All I wanted was your love, love, love, love, love, love
Hey!
Hate is a strong word
But I really, really, really don't like you
Now that it's over
I don't even know what I liked about you
Brought you around
And you just brought be down
Hate is a strong word
But I really, really, really don't like you
Oh... Oh... Oh...
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
I really don't like you
Oh... Oh... Oh...
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
I really don't like you
Oh... Oh... Oh...
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
I really don't like you
Oh... Oh... Oh...
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
The whole room filled with laughter, with even Mr Shuester sniggering into his hands as Quinn checked a binger at Finn and stormed out.
"You guys were right, Barbie is a bitch!" Finn laughed as everyone gave him a hug.
"Hey Rach." "Hey Finn." Rachel replied cooly. "That was the best performance you've ever done... besides Jessie's girl." She laughed.
"GROUP HUG" Mr Shue called.
I could get used to this Finn thought to hiimself as he and Rachel hugged each other in the middle of the group hug.
