Hey hey hey! Good afternoon guys!
I'm so stoked you guys are liking this fic so much, and Addison! The fact brings a smile to my face.
Ah, I am sorry I keep making you guys cry...it will all be over soon. I promise ;)
I dunno what it's like in America with donation, but I know over here you can still donate blood if you have tattoos as long as you've been screened for stuff like hepatitis and hiv. (I've got tatts and donate when I can...except after tequilla Thursday's! Lol)
I'm really torn with what I wanna do with Addy. I know some of you like her...ugh, it's gonna be a difficult decision to make :-/
Anyway. Tis time to go run! I'll do an extra couple of miles as punishment for making you guys cry! ;)
Please enjoy and let me know what ya think!
Sooo many thanks guys :)))))))
Lots o love.

Quinn was leant against Brittany, both girls sharing a large cushioned chair. Technically it was too small, but they both needed each other right now, so the girls persevered.
The nurses had been round earlier and reminded the small group of friends about the hospital's 'two at a time' visitor rule. Rachel and Kurt graciously offered to leave and return tomorrow with food and drinks for everyone.
Quinn was grateful for that. Just one less thing to worry about.
Brittany's hand stilled in her hair, the Yale graduate knew she was about to ask something. The dancer always paused before she spoke now, at least about important subjects. Quinn thought it was maybe due to the way she was treated in high school for being so flippant and care free with her comments. It upset the hazel eyed girl a little, knowing that part of Brittany was pretty much gone, but she knew high school had the ability to scar and change people. Look at where I am because of it.
"how long have you loved San, Q?". Tentatively asked the taller blonde, she felt the smaller girl tense beside her. But she kept her arm wrapped around the girls shoulder and her head leant against the her best friends.
Quinn decided for total honesty. Lies are what had gotten them into this situation. She couldn't lie anymore. "Since I was nine B...". She shrugged a little, her eyes still fixed on the poorly latina in front of her. "we dated, in secret...the year before you transferred. But I scr...I fucked up.". Brittany began to run her hand through choppy golden locks jn an attempt to calm the shorter girl. It worked a little and Quinn continued. "I..cheated on her with Noah. She broke up with me and then you showed up. You helped bring us back together Britt. Only as friends. But it was better than the silence I had been receiving, even if I did have to watch her fall for you.".
Brittany's hand stilled again. "I always knew a part of her loved you Quinn.". The shook her head and stood, pulling her arm from around the smaller girls shoulders. "The way her eyes were stuck on you every practice...remember that time Stacey dropped you?'. The former head cheerio nodded.
It was a typically freezing day in Lima. Snow coated the ground as it fell from the sky. Anyone would be crazy to be outside right now.
And that's where Quinn found herself. On the top of a pyramid, thanks to Coach Sue's batshit crazy idea of winter conditioning.
The girls below her were shaking, their arms and legs unstable. Coach was not happy. She wanted perfection. Even if that meant losing cheerioes to actual death!
"Fabray. Decent work!". Shouted the tracksuit loving woman through her bullhorn. "The rest of you, sloppy at best! I cannot think of one reason I allowed your flabby butts onto my prestigious team...except for you Sandbags, you will serve as a Mexican life aid if our plane ever happens to crash into the see on our way to nationals.". The tall woman paused and stepped closer to the pyramid. "IF WE MAKE IT THAT FAR WITH YOUR PATHETIC LACK OF SKILL!". The woman then turned abruptly. "Session dismissed.". She shouted over her shoulder. "I need to go drink the horrific memories of this practice away.". She mumbled, loud enough for the team to hear.
Quinn felt the girls below her loosen, she prepared to drop down into the waiting arms of two cheerios on the ground, but she didn't get a chance.
Stacey's arms disappeared from under her, the blonde tilted forward. She felt hands try and grasp her uniform as she tumbled toward the ground, but nothing slowed her descent. With a thud she hit the ground, hearing her ribs crack as she did. A scream of pain erupted from her mouth as the hazel eyed girl curled up into a ball. Brittany and coach Sue were at her side within seconds, the first soothing her the second assessing the damage and calling an ambulance.
The head cheerleaders eyes remained tightly shut in pain until she heard a yelp, then shouting and screaming. Opening them she saw Santana on top of a now floored Stacey slamming the girls head into the frozen ground.
"You stupid whore! How could you!?". Screamed the latina. "Imma make your life hell from now on!". She grunted as three girls managed to pull her off the now dazed red head. "I SWEAR IF YOU'VE HURT ONE BONE PUTA!".
"She was banned from practice for three weeks.". Said Quinn. The memory making her smile a little.
"She loved you Q...Anyone could see it.". Brittany paused at the bottom of Santana's bed. "She skipped classes that day and followed you to the hospital...and every night, when I slept over. She mumbled your namen in her sleep.". The dancer smiled sadly. "I know it's no excuse, but I didn't think she would fall in love with me. Not when she'd already found her soulmate.". A tear escaped sad, blue eyes as she shook her head. "I'm gonna go clean up a little. You want anything Q?".
The shorter blonde shook her head no, slightly dazed. Brittany smiled a little the exited the ward, in need of .

She was a match.
She knew it!
She understood now, why her path had crossed the latinas.
Her heart beat steadily in her chest.
She knew what she had to do.
Sealing up the two letters she had written, the tattooed girl walked towards the intensive care unit. She noticed Quinn had changed chairs and briefly wondered why, but that didn't matter. She had a new task. And she needed to see her best friend before she completed it.
The tattooed girl coughed quietly, gathering Quinn's attention. "Hey.". She smiled softly. Everything is gonna work out.
Quinn nodded back at the mousey blonde. "where have you been?" She asked curiously, receiving a shrug and a mumble about errands in response.
"I was wondering if I could have a couple of minutes with Tana...alone?". Quinn looked at her sceptically but nodded, raising from her chair. Addison smiled gratefully and took the blondes place, taking Santana's still limp hand in her own.
The green eyed girl waited until she heard the doors to the unit open and close, then began to speak quietly.
"I love you Tana.". She whispered, her voice already breaking. "I know you're gonna be angry with me, I'm sorry for that...I hope you will forgive me one day. I need you to do that. I can't bear to think you'd hate me.". She paused and wiped tears from her eyes. "You're special. So fucking special San. The world isn't ready to lose you yet!". A small, quiet sob escaped her throat and she burried her head into her best friends side. "I totally failed you these past 4 years San...I was meant to protect you...but you still got hurt.". Another pause. "I'm fucked up. You know this. I'm broken and I'll never be fixed. But there's one part of me that you mended S!". The tattooed girl raised a limp hand to her chest. "Now I can mend you too.". Tears were freely pouring from green eyes as the tall girl stood, leaning forward and planting a firm kiss onto the brunettes cheek. "Live for me Santana. Show the world how amazing you are. Let my heart help you do that...I'll always be in your life...sister.". The tattooed girl placed the two letters down onto the bed. One addressed to the latina . The other to Quinn. "I love you Tana.". She whispered before making her way into the corridor. Everything is gonna be fine. She's gonna get better. She's gonna live.
