Arrangements: Season 1 Episode 18 Laryngitis
Rachel walked out of the school far more depressed than any amount of slushies had ever caused her to feel. She hadn't said a word all day and her fellow glee clubbers had taken advantage of it to the point of ridiculousness. And she was uncomfortable with Finn singing "Jessie's Girl" to her. No one else seemed to realize he was singing to her, which made her question the validity of her public education.
She lost her train of thought when she saw Blaine leaning against their dad's car (that was more Rachel's than his by now). Rachel immediately ran into him and practically squeezed the life out of him.
"Hey, baby girl," Blaine murmured, smoothing down her hair. "Dads told me about your throat. How're you doing?" he asked pulling away. Rachel whipped out her phone and typed out a message as she had taken a vow of silence.
THE DOCTOR SAID THAT I NEED SURGERY UNLESS I CAN CURE MY OWN THROAT WITH HERBAL TEA AND SUPPLEMENTS HE SUPPLIED ME WITH. I HAVE ALSO TAKEN A VOW OF SILENCE.
"You not speaking? Stop the presses!" Rachel shot him a glare. She began typing on her phone furiously as he continued to tease her. "Why didn't you or dads tell me? I would have come home much quicker to enjoy the silence, though the neighbours might think someone was murdered if they didn't hear your voice." Rachel held up her phone for him to read.
I DON'T APPRECIATE THE SARCASM BLAINE GENE ANDERSON! THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM! I COULD NEVER SING AGAIN! I HAVE BEEN TEASED AND MADE FUN OF ENOUGH FOR ONE DAY, I DON'T NEED IT FROM MY BROTHER TOO.
Blaine immediately looked contrite after he had finished reading and apologized as the two got into the car.
"Have you heard anything more from Jesse?" Blaine asked as they pulled into their driveway. He turned and saw a very sad Rachel holding up her phone to him.
I HAVEN'T HEARD FROM HIM SINCE HE TOLD ME HE WAS SPENDING SPRING BREAK IN CA WITH HIS VA FRIENDS. WELL, HE CALLED ONCE AND LEFT A MESSAGE. HE HASN'T SPOKEN TO ME SINCE THE INCIDENT. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IF YOU DIDN'T SAY "I TOLD YOU SO", THOUGH I RIGHTLY DESERVE IT.
"Of course not, baby girl," he sighed. "Jesse's just upset right now, he'll come around, just give him some time." She nodded, though she was unconvinced.
"Rae, just remember this for next time. Jesse gave up his friends, his school, and his glee club for you. Please just remember to meet him or anyone else you're in a relationship halfway, okay?"
I KNOW. I KNOW. I'LL TAKE TO HIM AS SOON AS HE GETS BACK, OKAY?
"Alright."
WHEN DID YOU GET OH SO WISE? YOU'VE NEVER EVER HAD A BOYFRIEND!
"Why don't we get inside and make you some herbal tea?" Blaine said, ushering Rachel into the house. She thrust her phone in his face again.
JUST BECAUSE I CAN'T TALK DOESN'T MEAN I WON'T LET THIS GO, BLAINE ANDERSON! SPILL!
"How about 'throat coat'? That's what they had at the store…" Blaine said while going inside leaving a frustrated Rachel to follow him.
