Lots and lots of comments, thank you everyone. I know the Jessie twist was something everyone was looking forward too and trust me, plenty more of him is coming up.
I'm wanting to get more of you opinion though, I'm asking for vote, if you'd like to see Rachel go back to Jessie, vote Jessie, if you want her to stay with Finn, vote Finn. Keep the comments up.

Rachel's POV
Rachel stole another glance in Finn's direction, he kept meeting her gaze with a look of concern on his face, she couldn't be sure if she was more touched or annoyed.
"I'm fine" she insisted once again in a whisper.
There was laughter and talking around the two, they were in the choir room and the group was waiting for Mr. Schue to get there so that they could start. Finn seemed much more stiff than usual and Rachel wasn't being her usual loud self, she didn't interject her opinions to any of the conversations around her.
It was difficult not to notice when Rachel wasn't herself and Puck was the first one to comment "what's wrong with you two?" he asked.
It was Santana that answered "yeah, usually you never shut up" she glared towards Rachel. "You aren't fighting are you?" she asked, an evil smile spreading across her thick lips.
"No, we're not" Rachel snapped back, glaring back towards the good looking brunette, who had open her mouth to retaliate, but Mr. Schue walked in at that precise moment. "Sorry I'm late guys" he said as he walked over to the piano and set his stuff down, he turned back to them and clapped his hands together "alright then, whose up?" he asked glancing around.
To nobodies surprise Rachel was the first to raise her hand, Will gave a nod and stepped aside. Rachel sprang from her seat and moved to the center of the room "I chose this song because of somebody who impacts me the same way they do everybody.." she glanced towards Finn, who had moved over to the drum set and nodded. He started a rhythmic beat before Brad, the pianist started up as well and Rachel started into her song.
Don't spit on me and shame yourselfBecause you wish you were someone elseYou look so clean but you spread your dirtAs if you think that words don't hurtYou build up walls no one can climbThe things you do should be a crimeYou're the queen of superficialityKeep your lies out of my realityAnd when you're nice it's just a poseYou're one of thoseHatersTraitors to the human raceHatersWhat a drag, what a wasteI'd like to see them disappearThey don't belong anywhereHatersSpinning a web that's hard to seeOf envy, greed, and jealousyFeeling angry but you don't know whyWhy don't you look me in the eye?You want my friends, you want my clothesYou're one of thoseHatersYou say your boyfriend's sweet and kindBut you still got your eyes on mineYour best friends got her eyes on yoursIt all goes on behind closed doorsAnd when you're nice it's just a poseYou're one of thoseHatersLater for the alibisHatersAny shape, any sizeI'd like to see them disappearThey don't belong anywhereHaters
Throughout the song she made eye contact with Santana a few times, and each time the look on the brunette's face was getting more and more dangerous. The rest of the class clapped as the song ended, a few of them exchanging looks. Everyone knew what had happened in the library and Rachel hadn't tried very hard to hide the fact that she was singing towards Santana.
"Who the hell do you think you are?" again no surprise as Santana was the first to speak up after it was over. Rachel crossed her arms, looking defensive "I don't know what your talking about" she shrugged. "Oh don't play dumb, do you actually think your that much better than me.. Really?"
Rachel shook her head, dropping her arms "I'm nothing like you, you live to hurt people.. You've spent the past week trying to break Finn and I up because you can't have him, it's obvious to everyone how jealous you are Santana."
"Jealous? Please, what's there to be jealous of Rachel, what do you have that I don't? Friends? No, you don't have any friends because you talk incessantly and nobody can stand being near you for more than 5 minutes at a time, before they seriously just want to punch you. I know Finn spends half of his time wishing you'd shut the hell up. It can't possibly be your clothes because you dress like your some home schooled freak. Okay so we know it's not those things, it must be your looks, right?" she eyed the stunned Rachel up and down and then gave another wicked grin "but I doubt it, I'm surprised you haven't poked Finn's eyes out with that hooked bill of yours, not to mention that you look like a 12 year old playing dress up."
"that's enough!" Will called out angrily as most of the class fell into a dead silence. "We're supposed to be working as a team, how are we going to win at our competitions if we're using all of our energy fighting with each other."
Rachel just stood there, feeling deflated, her song selection had been meant to call Santana out, but the retaliation had been harder than she expected. Her face was pale and her nose was burning as tears were forming in her eyes. Damn it, she didn't want to give Santana the satisfaction in knowing she had made her cry. Without a word she turned on her heal and left the room, fighting back sobs until she was actually out in the hallway where she buried her face in her hands and cried.
Finn's POV
There were a few people who were shooting Santana judgemental looks, she rolled her eyes to show she didn't care. "Than was messed up" it was Puck who spoke first, but Santana sneered towards him "oh whatever Puck, it's not like I said anything that we haven't all said about her before anyway, I just didn't bother to wait until her back was turned.."
Finn was now standing in front of the class, having abandoned the drum set he had been sitting behind. "What is wrong with you? You make people feel so bad about themselves.. Does it make you feel better about yourself? Do you want me to point out all of your flaws in front of everyone?"
Santana turned on him another look of danger in her eyes "I don't pretend to care when I don't Finn" she had heard him complain about Rachel's faults before.
"Enough!" Mr. Schue called again "I can't believe how cavalier most of your are about this.. After everything you've all been through, the people in this room should be the ones you can come to when your crying, we shouldn't be making our own cry"
"Everything makes her cry!" Santana cried out defensively "Stop Santana! I'm sick of this, we're going to be spending the next week learning to appreciate each other.. And if you feel like you can't be respectful to every person in this room.. Then maybe you shouldn't be in this group"
