Life was getting better for Quinn but she never gained or lost anyone. She had Finn and Kurt as her sources of comfort. They seemed like an odd trio at first. They sat together in lunch, in class, in glee. Everywhere.
When Quinn had to use the bathroom, either Kurt or Finn would wait for her, making sure nothing happens. Talk about over-protectiveness.
But it all changes soon. So, let's see. It was a normal school day. No one did any harm to Quinn and she was with Finn and Kurt. But when it was glee rehearsal time, everyone except Quinn were in a chorus line.
Of course, they were practicing, without her. She was just a reserve. At the thought of this, she had the need to cry. At first, she told herself not to care so much but she couldn't help it.
Finn saw the change in her expression and he immediately walked to her side. He knew Quinn was about to cry any moment, so he led her out of the room without permission from Mr Schue.
"Hey, what's wrong, Quinnie?"
"I'm not in Sectionals. I won't be able to compete against all the other teams. I just want to join in, I don't want to have a solo. i just wanna be there. Why am I still in glee club? I should just leave. No one would care."
"Don't say that. Don't. You have me and Kurt. We are there to support you. If you want to quit glee, I think it should be now. Maybe, Mr Schue might realise that he missed out a beautiful, talented girl. C'mon, Q. We'll show them."
As both of them walked into the room, a hush fell over. Quinn walked in front all of them;
"I'm quitting glee club. I'm just not happy and I'm pretty sure you don't need me, as you can see, very obviously, I'm sitting out the competition and I might as well leave rather than watch you guys rub it in my face. I'm sorry about what I did, last year. Putting you all under pressure. I wish I never joined, to be honest. Because now, I can't really express myself. I thought when I joined, I'd be able to tell and sing my feelings out but it's not possible. So, I hope you guys rock Sectionals and have fun."
All of a sudden;
"Me too, I'm leaving. You can find another guy to sing this solo. You guys are really just unfair about Q." Finn walked over to Quinn and took his and her bags.
"Count me in! I can't stand it. None of us get a solo, except for Rachel and Mercedes. I never get chance. So, whatever, good luck. I hope you don't win." Kurt, had also wanted to leave. He knew he wanted to be happy, rather than be bored to death form listening to Rachel's renditions. Oh, the torture.
As the trio walked out, the whole glee club was in shock. They needed 12 members and they lost three. Mr Schue, was even more shocked. He realised that he never really cared much for Quinn, like how he cared for the reset of the club. He always thought that she was just another Coach Sylvester but she's just a lonely girl, who just wanted happiness.
"Well, I can look for two more people to join us for Sectionals. I'm sure after Sectionals, we can get Finn and Kurt back. We don't need Quinn, though. She's just nothing, so we can just leave her out…." Rachel continued blabbering.
"Enough, Rachel! Look we lost three of our members. We need two more. I'm pretty sure we can get someone but I feel we have to do something else, first. i think we should all apologise to Quinn. We never treated her fairly. Look, we can put the past behind. If Kurt and Finn can do that, we can. Rachel, I don't care what you think. We're all a family and I feel we need to apologise to Quinn."
Back in Finn's house
"Why did you leave glee club? They needed you and Kurt."
"I left, because, well, I didn't want you to walk out alone. I didn't want a Rachel torturing me to sing a duet with her. I didn't want a lot. I just wanted to stay with you and help you. Understand you. I want to be your friend. To help you. Quinn, I care for you."
"Finn…" She was cut off with a kiss on her lips.
Both of them were in bliss. They saw fireworks, stars, colours. Neither of them stopped. They just continued. After, what it seemed, like days, both of them broke apart.
"Quinn, I didn't mean to…. I was just caught in the moment and-"
"It's okay. I like you. I really do, I want to be us again. I want to be with you."
"You just made my day, Ms Fabray. I want you too."
