Just so you guys don't get confused, Quinn will now be referred to as lucy now in the future chapters. It feels more comfortable referring to her as lucy since that's what she said she'd prefer in the past couple of chapters.
Lucy's POV
Lucy woke up in a jolt and felt nausea and a headache slowly creep up on her. She rolled over and saw Santana passed out on the floor softly snoring. Lucy checked the time and groaned It's only 6am? She ran her fingers through her hair before laying back down and sleeping for little longer.
"Quinn-I mean Lucy... Lucy... LUUUUUUUUUUUUUCYYYYY!", Santana yelled while shaking her bed.
Lucy woke up with burning eyes and shot Santana a hateful glare. Santana just laughed and tossed her a water bottle. She never thought she would love drinking water as much as she did at that moment. Before she realized it, the water bottle was sucked dry. She already felt 10x better.
The blonde tried to clear her throat but her voice still sounded raspy, "San, what time is it?"
"It's fucking late that's what it is. You know, I've been waiting for you to wake up for the past few hours but you literally died in my bed."
Lucy checked the time and saw it was already 2pm, "Goddammit. I feel like I only fell asleep for a few minutes."
"Yeah, that's what happens when you fall asleep drunk."
"Tell me again why we drank last night? My body is regretting ever drinking anything but water."
"Because Lucy. You and me both needed it. I don't think I could've told you we used to have sex sober."
They both got weird looks on their faces and started blushing.
Santana was bright red, "You realize it was completely... not romantic right? It was something to just pass the time?"
Lucy rolled her eyes and smiled, "Yeah, yeah. I don't think I can really see you as anything else but a friend. So, do you loooooooooooooove Brittany?"
"Shutup..."
"Awwww you do love her!"
"Lucy! I swear shutup!", Santana exclaimed while her face showed pure embarrassment for being teased.
"I think it's cute San."
"Yeah, and I think it's cute that you have a thing for the troll of Mckinley. But I wasn't gonna make fun of you for it."
Lucy got bright red with fear filling her eyes, "I told you about that?"
"I really don't think you had to in the first place. I would've figured it out just by your little whispers and moans while you were sleeping last night. Ohh Rachel"
"Oh my god I didn't have a sex dream about her! But I won't deny dreaming about her."
"So what are you gonna do about your feelings?"
Lucy licked her lips and started chewing on her bottom lip, "I don't know... Probably nothing."
"How many times have you talked to her?"
"Not that many.."
Santana started beating around the bush about her IM messages from Rachel last night, "How do you know she doesn't like you?"
"Oh that'd be a coincidence. All the girls from Lima being lesbian."
"It wouldn't be a surprise that most are closeted dykes. Small towns are means for big gays."
"I don't want to chance trying to figure out if she likes me like that."
Santana looked up at Lucy and decided it was time to admit her little crime from the night before, "Don't be mad at me but I might have already figured it out."
"What do you mean?"
"I might have had a chat with RuPaul online last night."
Lucy's eyes nearly bugged out of her head, "SANTANA."
"I'm sorry, but in my defense, I already knew she was in love with you from the start. She basically said she was into you and wanted to tap that."
"OH MY GOD. stop."
They both laughed and started to continue on with their Sunday by being lazy and going in and out of sleep. By 8pm Lucy decided it was time to go home.
She opened the door to her house and tried her best not to be noticed.
Lucy's mom yelled from the kitchen, "Quinn? Is that you?"
Lucy sighed at the name and replied, "Yes."
"Where were you?"
"You guys told me to either leave or stay and I chose to leave for a bit."
"I- I never told you to leave.."
"Well you never spoke up about it.", Lucy said on her way to the kitchen. She then saw her mom with blood shot eyes and a glass of liquor in her shaky hands.
"Mom, what happened? What's wrong?"
"When you left... Your father and I got into an argument..."
Judy Fabray's POV
"Russel why do you have to be so hard on her?"
"Because she's being a little bitch that's why."
"RUSSEL."
"Well it's true. I'm tired of this goddamn family being weak."
"But this is our daughter. She got in to a car accident not that long ago and her life could've been taken from us. Don't you get that? I could've lost my little girl. You act like you don't even care about her."
Russel got up and pulled on his belt, "Maybe I rather have no family than an imperfect family."
Judy got shaky hands and tried calming herself down, "You don't mean that."
"Ever since the accident it hasn't been the same! Where did my perfect family go? My perfect girl that was a cheerio and did god's work? Or my sober wife that waited on me?"
"She was never that perfect girl! You made her into that! I just sat there silent while you made her into something she's not."
"I'm going to work. I'm done here."
Lucy's POV
"He hasn't come home. A few of his things are gone and he won't answer his phone."
Lucy cried as her mom explained what had happened, "Does he really hate who I am?"
"Oh baby, I never hated who you were. But your father is just a different kind of man. He doesn't like anything that isn't perfect in his eyes. You've always been perfect to me."
"So everything was a lie with him. I'm so sorry mom."
"I'll be fine honey. Just go rest now, you have school tomorrow."
Lucy kissed her mom on the cheek and made her way to her bedroom. Before she went to sleep she got a text message.
Rachel: Hey Lucy.. It's Rachel
Lucy: How'd you get my number?
Rachel: Santana.
Lucy: Of course.
Rachel: Can we talk tomorrow? Before School?
Lucy: Yeah
Rachel: Goodnight Lucy :)
Lucy: Goodnight.
Rachel's POV
Rachel walked up to the school and made her way to the choir room. She was preparing to talk to Lucy when Finn came into the room.
"Hey Rach."
"Oh Finn... I'm sorry but I don't have time for this right now."
Finn walked towards Rachel, "I really don't care. Why haven't you returned any of my texts or calls?"
"Because as I told you before I'm not interested in you."
Finn did his famous chair kick and waved his hands in the air, "Forget you Rachel. I leave the hottest girl in school for you. To show you that I can be without her and you're just being selfish."
Rachel scoffed, "Being selfish? Finn, You left her because we all agreed it was for what was best. If you noticed, she never came back to you because she isn't interested and that got you upset and lonely. I'm your backup."
"No, I was gonna be with you before if you don't remember. I kissed you in this room while Quinn was trudging the hallway being Queen Bee. I cheated on her with you because I want to be with you."
"If that was the case FINN-"
"What's going on in here?"
Lucy walked in and set her things down.
Rachel looked embarrassed and tried getting Finn out of the room, "Finn was just done making a scene."
"No, I'M NOT. I want you to see how serious I am. Quinn I want you to know that I wanted to be with Rachel when we were together. I was scared. THERE."
Lucy tried not to smile at the wrong moment, "Okay... I never wanted to be with you either."
Finn's temple started throbbing and stepped towards Lucy, "What do you mean?"
"Finn, as far as I'm concerned you're a goofball. I don't know what I saw in you but a title. I'm sorry but you were never my type. By the way, It's Lucy now. Not Quinn."
Finn trudged out of the room with a hurt ego
"I'm sorry Lucy... I don't know why he came in here."
Lucy finally let out her smile and walked towards Rachel, "Soo... He cheated on me with you, again?"
"Yeah, he attacked me with his gross lips by surprise while I tried to explain to him why I didn't want to hurt you."
"Good thing I don't remember anything or else you'd probably be in big trouble."
"Probably.. I'd have a slushy in my face right about now."
Lucy's POV
Lucy looked at Rachel with sad eyes, "I'm really sorry about how I treated you. I would take it all back if I could."
"It's alright Lucy.. I never tried to take it personally."
"Why did you want to meet Rachel?"
Rachel looked everywhere but in Lucy's eyes, "I wanted to talk.."
"About what?"
"Us."
Lucy's stomach flipped, "Oh.."
"Last year, when I was writing an original song for glee club, you helped me but it didn't feel like help at the time. You said 'How many times does it take to make the same mistake before realizing it's not going to work out'."
"Do you want to know how the story plays out? I get Finn. You get heartbroken and then Finn and I stay here and start a family. I'll become a successful real estate agent and Finn will take over Kurt's dad's tire shop. You don't belong here Rachel and you can't hate me for helping to send you on your way."
"No, well. I'm not going to give up on Finn. It's not over between us."
"Yes it is! You're so frustrating and THAT is why you can't write a good song because you live in this little school girl fantasy of life. Rachel, if you keep looking for that happy ending you are never going to get it right."
Lucy had a tear streaming down her face, "You don't belong here Rachel. If you keep looking for that happy ending you are never going to get it right."
Rachel looked at Lucy with amazed eyes, "You remember?"
"No, I mean Yes.. I didn't until you reminded me of it. I guess it must have been an important memory if it just sprung up like that."
"Well, I didn't know it at the time but you were helping me realize that Finn is just a stupid boy. He was something I latched onto because I didn't realize what I really wanted."
"What did you really want?"
Rachel looked into Lucy's eyes and held her hand, "I've been in love with you for as long as I could remember. I just never admitted it to myself."
"How could you want me? I did nothing but hurt you Rachel. I made your life a living hell."
"But for some reason I knew you better than that. I knew that wasn't you."
Lucy silently cried and whispered, "I wanted you to love me for so long."
