A/N: The movie mentioned near the mid is supposed to be coming out sometime this year(got told by my friend, may or may not be a reliable source) and it was the only movie anyone could think of, so yeah just needed a movie title.
I made this chapter a little longer because I couldn't get on the computer to update yesterday, so I hope that this makes up for it.
Keep Reading and Reviewing. Special thank-you to Caseyrn12 for all of the great reviews, you have been the biggest motivation for this fic so far.
Rachel POV
-/-
After a few minutes of just lying on her bed, Rachel decided to get up so she could get something to eat. Quinn had taken a lot out of her and she needed some time to get some of her strength back. She felt that Quinn had been a little rough with her but maybe that was just how Quinn was. She would have to ask her later.
When Rachel had had dinner and it was getting close to 8, she decided it was time to get ready to go out with Brittany and Santana. She was dressed and ready by 7.50 and the doorbell chimed at 10 past. Rachel ran down the stairs but her dad beat her to the door anyway.
"Hello?" Hiram basically asked. Rachel had forgotten to mention that the other girls were going to take her away for a few hours. She kicked herself for not telling him as soon as he walked in the door.
"Hi. I'm Santana and this is Brittany. We are here for Rachel." Was the unmistakable voice of Santana.
"Okay. Well I'm Hiram Berry. Pleased to meet you." He said slowly as he turned around to see Rachel behind him. Rachel gave him an apologetic look and Hiram just shrugged his shoulders. She saw Brittany's head stick around Hiram to look at Rachel.
"Hi Rachel." She said with her usual bubbly voice.
"Hi Brittany. Daddy I'm going to go watch a movie with them okay? I'll be back in a while." Rachel grabbed her coat off the rack next to the door and went outside. Hiram stood dumbfounded in the doorway.
"Sure. See you later I guess." He closed the door.
"From how shocked he seemed you didn't tell him we were coming did you?" Santana accused.
"I had other things on my mind." Rachel defended.
"Like Q?"
"So what if I did. I'm dating her so I can think of her if I want to." It didn't look like Santana had expected this response. Rachel guessed she probably thought say no or try and defend herself but Rachel felt good being able to openly say she was thinking of Quinn. After a few seconds of looking Rachel up and down, Santana smirked.
"What?" Rachel asked.
"Did she come over again?" Santana asked though Rachel wasn't sure where this had come from.
"No. Why?"
"Because you look a bit tired. You also have 'Just Fucked' hair. If I didn't know any better I would think someone got you off." Rachel felt her cheeks go red. She had tried really hard to fix her hair.
"Hey Rachel can I have a look at your phone for a minute?" Brittany asked out of the blue.
"Sure, here." Rachel gave her phone to Brittany who immediately began tapping away.
"They had phone sex." Brittany stated after a few seconds. Santana burst out laughing. Rachel just hid her face in her hands.
"You are such a tease Berry. You won't let the girl touch you but you make her listen to you getting off. Did she order you around? I bet she did as payback." Santana looked overjoyed.
"Why do you even care?" Rachel asked. She had no real comeback so this was all she could really say.
"She thinks its hot Rach. Because it really is." Brittany told her. Rachel was taken aback by this answer whereas Santana looked like she was going to die of embarrassment.
"Oh and here's your phone back. I put our numbers into it if you need to call us. I knew that S has your number, because she has everyone's, but obviously you didn't have ours." Rachel took her phone back.
"Can we just go now?" Santana asked after regaining her composure.
"Why? You getting wet thinking about me and Quinn?" Rachel didn't know where this sudden boldness had come from. Santana shot her a death stare which Rachel just shrugged off.
"Let's just go." Rachel deadpanned. They all got in the car. Rachel got in the back while Brittany got in the passenger and Santana drove.
"So, whose car is this?" Rachel asked. Santana shot her a 'you have to be kidding me' look as she started the car before Brittany answered.
"It's S'. Her parents bought it for her a while ago."
"Cool. So what are we actually going to see?" Rachel asked.
"Whatever Brittany wants to see. We always let Brittany pick the movies, it's her job. She also buys the movie tickets. My job is to drive and pay for gas and stuff and Q usually buys the food. I guess that because she isn't here that can be your job." Santana told her.
"Seems fair." Rachel replied.
"And other things we do are unfair?" Santana dared her.
"That wasn't what I was saying. I merely meant that this particular system seems good." As she began backing out of the driveway Santana gave Rachel a dirty look. Rachel just rolled her eyes, this was just Santana.
"So Brittany, got any ideas of what movie you want to watch?" Rachel asked.
"I don't really know. I'll decide when we get there."
"What types of food do you guys usually get? I mean you guys have already had dinner right?" Rachel was just talking to keep her nerves from showing.
"Berry?" Santana said softly.
"Yeah?"
"Stop talking and just some snacks." Santana continued in her soft voice. Rachel complied by just sitting with her thoughts. At least Santana was trying, so the least Rachel could do was try to avoid doing things that the Latina doesn't like. Talking too much for example. She felt her phone buzz in her pocket.
Sorry for being so needy but I'm bored and I miss you. Having fun so far? Rachel thought it was just adorable.
I miss you too. I'm really nervous right now and it's good to have you talk to me to calm me down.
"Is that Q? You had phone sex only two hours ago and you guys are still texting? Needy much?" Santana laughed.
Busted. They also found out about the phone sex. Rachel texted to Quinn before answering.
"So I'm not allowed to talk to the girl I'm dating?" Rachel asked.
Tell Santana she had better watch what she says. Also, how the hell could you let them find out about the phone sex!
"Quinn said you had better watch what you say." Rachel informed Santana.
"What is Tubbers going to do to me, get Puck to get me pregnant?" Santana mocked. Rachel's eyebrows scrunched together.
"Shut up Santana." She said in her forceful voice. It may not have been very intimidating but Santana got the message that she had gone too far.
"Sorry, sorry." That was the first time Rachel had ever heard those words come out of the Latina's mouth. Before too long they had arrived at the movie theatre. Brittany went through their choices for movies. After much deliberation she chose the new Snow White, Mirror Mirror. After Brittany had secured their tickets they went over to the food lines.
"So, know what you guys want yet?" Rachel asked.
"Choc top." Brittany said at once.
"Do you want a drink too or...?" She trailed off.
"No, just a chocolate choc top." Brittany said.
"Okay. And you Santana." Rachel continued.
"Medium Coke." Santana said with as little hesitation as Brittany had earlier.
"Any food?" Rachel asked.
"No. B and I share. I get some licks of her ice-cream and she gets some sips of my drink." Santana explained.
"You sure? I could just buy two choc tops and two drinks." Rachel didn't want the cheerleaders to think they were putting her out if they got one each instead of one to share.
"No, me and Santana always share. That's how we like it." Brittany responded. Rachel just shrugged and got the ordered foods plus a lemonade for herself. When they had found their seats at the back of the theatre, Rachel's curiosity got the best of her.
"I thought that cheerio's couldn't have any kind of junk foods. I thought that Coach Sylvester didn't allow it." This had been bugging Rachel since she had seen the two cheerleaders begin to eat and drink.
"Oh yeah, because we only eat health foods and do whatever else coach Sylvester says. Don't be so naive Berry." The sarcasm was very evident in Santana's voice for that first sentence. Rachel was starting to rethink the whole idea of the cheerio's, they were supposed to be the hardest training team at the school. Okay, to be fair they probably still were even with the junk food, but still.
"So don't you guys listen to Coach Sylvester? How do you guys still win every year?" Rachel asked, voicing some of her concerns.
"We still train like really hard. We also don't have like this all that much. We still do, just not as much as everyone else." Brittany answered.
"I still don't think you should be having that stuff if Coach Sylvester says you can't." As much as Rachel wanted some friends, the leader and stickler for the rules in her wouldn't let this go by without the small reprimand.
"Whatever, you're not on the Cheerio's so it doesn't really matter what you think about it. Anyway, it's not like you do everything Shue says. Don't pretend you have." Santana argued. Rachel opened her mouth to retort but what Santana had said was true, she didn't always do what Mr. Shuester said. She did most of the time, just not always. As the ads for new movie releases started, Rachel got another new message.
Did they stop picking on you? If they didn't I'm gonna come down there and kick S' ass. Rachel quickly texted back.
She stopped. Now you really shouldn't text me anymore the movie's starting. After a few seconds she got a reply.
Can I text you later then? Rachel smiled at that. She had someone who legitimately wanted to talk to her. Finally she didn't have someone telling her to shut up.
Sure, but make sure I text you first.
"Berry, you can't have phone sex in a movie theatre, especially sitting next to me and B." Santana's voice pulled her from her thoughts of Quinn.
"I am not. I'm not a horndog! I don't always have sex when I talk to people on the phone. We were even texting no talking whatsoever." Rachel said.
"Did she send you pictures? Can I see?" Brittany asked.
"She did not send me pictures either. She just wanted to talk to me."Rachel squealed.
"Well it's a good thing you like to talk then isn't it? Just keep it in your pants until you are at least at home okay." Santana mocked.
"Can we just watch the ads? I like them most of the time." Rachel turned her attention back to the screen. She wished this movie would hurry up and start so she would stop being bombarded with questions. She also wanted it to hurry up and finish so she could talk to Quinn about whatever rubbish came to her mind, which was quickly becoming one of her favourite pastimes.
When the movie was finished Rachel was glad to be able to stretch her legs and talk.
"Thank you Santana, Brittany I enjoyed that movie and it was a good chance to spend time with some people my own age." She said when she was getting out of the car at the front of her house.
"No worry's Rachel. If you are going out with Quinn that makes you our friend." Brittany said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"I guess it means we have to tolerate you. Don't get carried away Brittany." Santana warned.
"I always liked you Rachel. Even when you are really bossy. I think Santana likes you too, she just doesn't want to admit it." Rachel beamed. Santana dropped her head to her hands.
"Bye Berry." She said.
"Bye Rachel." Brittany smiled.
"See you later guys. Thanks again." Rachel opened the door and went inside. Her dads were still up but probably wouldn't be for much longer as it was later than Rachel had anticipated she would be getting home.
"Hi sweetie. Who were those two girls? We didn't really get much heads up that they were coming or any real introductions." Leroy said. Rachel felt guilty for sending her dad's to go into the battle that was always Santana with no real heads up.
"Sorry dad, when she called and asked if I wanted to come I had other things on my mind, so I kinda forgot to tell you that two of my friends from school were coming. The blonde was Brittany who is a bubbly and innocent girl and the brunette was Santana who is very... protective." Rachel couldn't really think of anything to say about Santana that did not make her come off as a heartless bitch.
"How long have they been your friends?" Hiram asked.
"Brittany has kinda always been my friend but we just never really got to hang out much. Both of them would always hang out with Quinn so..." Rachel trailed off. She hadn't meant to say that last part, she really didn't need to remind her fathers of Quinn's past.
"Did they join in the teasing and humiliation that Quinn caused you?" Here we go, Rachel thought to herself.
"Brittany didn't, she really is a sweet girl, not all that bright, but sweet." Rachel tried to keep the conversation away from Santana.
"What about the other one Santana?" Damn.
"Like I said she is very protective, of her friends." Rachel said the last bit more quietly.
"So she did?"
"Yes. But she said that now if I ever need any help or if I'm in trouble then I just need to call her and she will come and help me. See I'm her friend now so she is protective of me." Rachel defended.
"It's okay Rachel; we just want to have a background on them. It's good you have a friend who is willing to try and protect you, I thought she seemed a bit forceful at the door." Hiram muttered under his breath.
"Well, she kinda is. She is one of those people that it's better to have on your side." Rachel yawned.
"Bed." Leroy said at once. Rachel didn't argue because she could now talk with Quinn and she was pretty tired. When she got upstairs she pulled out her phone. She called Quinn and lay down on her bed listening to the dial tone.
"Hi Rachel. Did you have fun? Was Santana nice?"Quinn asked in protective mode.
"Yes she was very nice and I did have fun. The end of the night was a bit telling because Brittany started talking about how she liked me and she let slip that Santana liked me more than she let on." Rachel could hear Quinn laughing.
"I bet Santana like that. So, I really just wanted to say I was sorry for making you be so rough with yourself earlier. I guess I kinda got a little jealous and protective when you told me that you were going out." This made Rachel feel bad for letting the cheerleader leave her out.
"No Quinn, that was amazing. I'm sorry I didn't put up more of a fight when Santana said that she couldn't really get to know me if you were around. I think she thinks I'll be too distracted. Come to think of it she is probably right; when you're around I only have eyes for you." Rachel admitted.
"Good, I just wish you would let me kiss you in the halls so you don't get harassed by guys wanting to get in your pants." Rachel felt herself blush.
"I want you to too, but it would probably be best if we didn't completely ruin your rep. Besides, no guys really make a move on me anyway."
"Finn would." Quinn mumbled.
"Well I will just have to tell Finn to back off if it makes you uncomfortable then, won't I? What did you end up doing this afternoon?" Rachel wanted to get off the relationship topic.
"Homework mostly. Means later in the week I can spend more time with you." Rachel didn't say anything but was silently glad that Quinn wanted to spend more time with her. They continued talking for a good half hour before Rachel yawned again.
"Rachel, you need to sleep. You're tired and it's late." Quinn told her.
"But I want to keep talking with you." Rachel said in her puppy dog voice, as her eyes were useless through a phone.
"You need sleep. I will pick you up in the morning." Quinn said softly.
"I guess I'll have to settle for dream Quinn then, she has nothing on you though." Rachel informed Quinn.
"You... You're going to dream of me?" Quinn asked.
"Of course I am. It's hard not to dream of the stunning, funny, athletic..." Quinn cut her off.
"Rachel stop, flattery will get you nowhere... until Friday. Goodnight Rachel." Quinn cooed.
"Night Quinn, let's hope dream Quinn can tide me over until I get to see you again." Rachel ended the call and got changed. When she got into bed she really hoped dream Quinn could hold her until tomorrow because she really had no other choice, she was now dependent on Quinn to make her day, but lucky for her, the blonde kept on delivering.
