Quinn's P.O.V
Where are these two? Coach is going to kill them if they're late and then kill me for not making sure they're here on time. I head out to the packed halls, I'm trying to see over people but I'm too short, I miss the days when I was taller than most kids! I decide to try my luck and push my way through them.
After about 10 minutes of pushing my way through the halls, I can see Santana and Brittany standing in front of kurt and that girl from the sandwich shop. God she looks even hotter today and is that a skateboard, wow!
"You guys are going to be late for cheer practice if you don't hurry up and get a move on!" I snap at them while walking up to the group.
"Don't get you panties in a twist Q. We're going now!" Santana says, we all get ready to walk away.
"Quinnie?" The girl says, I snap my head around to look at her. Nobody calls me that, only Rachel.
"Rachie?" I says, smiling. "When did you get back?" I ask while walking up to her.
"Yesterday...so your friends with slutana and Brittany no brains?" She says, I can see Santana about to go for her, but Britt holds her back.
"Tell coach I'll be there in a few!" I turn round and snap to them. They both roll their eyes and walk away.
"Well that enough excitement for one day. I'll see you at lunch Rachel." Kurt says before walking away.
"I missed you..." I say to her and she rolls her eyes. Why is she acting like this?
"Of course you did!" She snaps. This is not the Rachel I remember.
"What's your problem? I did miss you, your my best friend!" I say to her, I'm glad that the halls are now empty.
"Yeah well your not mine...any more. I need to get to class!" She snaps at me.
"Can I walk you?" I ask, ignoring the fact that she clearly doesn't want me to be her friend anymore.
"Fine! But only cause I don't know where my fucking Spanish class is!" She says with gritted teeth.
"It's just down here..." I say quietly. I can't believe she's changed this much, I mean she stood up to Santana for once. It was always me that stood up for her.
"So your one of those cheer bitches now?" She asks me as we begin to walk down the hall.
"Kinda, minus the bitch part. I'm nothing like Santana or Brittany." I say to her.
"I can tell, I basically told you to fuck off and leave me alone and yet your still here, trying to act all nice." She says while smirking, since when does Rachel smirk, I mean it's so hot when she does. Wait what! No I can't be having one of my stupid girl crushes on Rachel!
"Yeah, well I can see right through your act!" I say to her.
"What act?" She asks.
"The bad girl act...people don't change that much!" I say playfully to her. She smiles at me.
"Well I did cupcake! See ya around!" She says before entering the classroom.
"Cupcake?" I say to myself when she can no longer hear me.
"I don't have one, but I guess we could go and grab some after school if you like." I turn round to see Finn standing there, with his usual dopey grin on his face.
"Sounds good! I should get to cheer practice." I say quickly before practically running away from him.
I don't even know why I'm with Finn, I've never liked him as more that a friend and now we're together and his kissing me all the time and trying to do other stuff...God why are all guys like that. I bet Rachel wouldn't be like that...no Quinn stop thinking about her! She's obviously not gay although she does have a penis, that might make her attracted to girls more than guys. But even if she was into girls she wouldn't want me...she clearly hates me. I just wish my ass hole of a dad would have let me go and visit her. Then maybe she wouldn't hate me. I don't even feel like cheer practice now.
Instead of going to practice I decided to go and sit on the bleachers behind school. None of the teachers go there to check and see if student are hiding out there instead of going to class. Much to my liking it's empty, I just can't seem to get Rachel off my mind...one second she's calling me Quinnie and I can see the rachie that I used to know and then she turned into a full on bitch. I wonder what Santana said to her today. Did Santana know that it was her yesterday when she went up to her table? Why didn't she tell me that she was back? She knows how much I've missed her.
"Oh great your here!" I hear someone say behind me. I turn round to see Rachel standing there.
"It's good to see you too cupcake!" I snap at her.
"Cupcake was a bit much huh?" She asks while taking a seat beside me.
"Yeah, so why aren't you in class?" I ask.
"No me gusta español!" She says in a Spanish accent. "What about you? I thought you had cheer practice." She says.
"I didn't feel like it...I mean it kinda hurts when your best friend turns out to be an ass!" I snap at her.
"Sorry...I just miss someone in Canada that's all. It's good to see you again." She says. Wait she has a someone!
"What's his name?" I ask her.
"Jamie...and he is a she." She says and my jaw drops open.
"Oh...what's she like?" I ask.
"She's...okay I guess. I don't think it's gonna last, I never really felt that spark ya know." She admits to me while moving closer to me.
"Yeah I know. I feel the same what about Finn...I mean he's a great guy and all but I just don't get that tingly feeling when I'm with him." I say to her.
"Wait Finn! As in Finn from pre-school?" She asks.
"Yep!" I say.
"Wow...he was such an ass to us. They all were, I can't believe you forgave them." She snaps at me.
"They all apologised to me...and I'm sure they'll do the same with you. We all just kids back then." I say to her.
"Yeah well I didn't get a apology from Santana yesterday when she found out that she flirting with 'Mr Berry'" she says to me.
"Yeah...she's still a bitch...I tried to come and visit you but my dad wouldn't let me." I admit to her.
"I thought you forgot about me..." She says, that's the Rachel I know. The Rachel that lets me in, that doesn't put up this big front.
"I'd never forget you rachie!" I say while pulling her in for a hug. Wow I forgot how great this felt.
"I'm sorry..." She says. I give her a confused look.
"Sorry? What did you do?" I asks.
"I bad mouthed you so many times...I thought you didn't want me anymore because of my extra baggage." She says.
"I didn't care about it when we were younger and I don't care about it now and as far as bad mouthing me, your forgiven. Just don't let it happen again okay!" I say while bumping shoulders with her a bit.
"Thanks and it won't...do you still have B-bear?" She asks.
"Yep, we cuddle every night. It reminds me of all the sleepovers we had. I used to love to cuddle with you..." I admit to her. "Do you still have Q-bear?" I ask. Hoping that she didn't get rid of it cause she thought I didn't want her anymore.
"Yeah...I haven't looked at her in a while though." She says.
"Oh...I'm sorry I hurt you so much." I say quietly to her.
"It's okay...I know now that it wasn't you. It was your dad." She says.
"We should probably get back into school. Don't want to get in any more trouble than I am already in." I say standing up.
"Yeah I guess your right...see ya around Quinn!" She says about to walk away when I grab her arm.
"Friday night!" I say to her.
"What are you talking about?" She asks.
"I meant to say that maybe we should hang out on Friday night. Maybe go to the movies or something." I suggest.
"Are you asking me out on a date?" She asks me.
"What? No of course I'm not, I'm with Finn and you have a girlfriend in Canada and I'm not even into gi..." Rachel puts her hand over my mouth to stop me from speaking.
"I'd love too Quinnie!" She says winking at me, before turning and walking away.
"It's not a date!" I shout to her.
"Whatever you say!" She shouts backs before disappearing.
Did that really just happen? Does she actually think that we are going on a date? You know what...it doesn't matter. I don't care what it is as long as I am getting to spend time with her after all these years.
Rachel's P.O.V
Did I really just do that! I bet she thinks I'm some sort of weirdo now. But it just felt so good to be with her again. I forgot how she made me feel. It's the feeling I've been trying to get with Jamie. Maybe I should end things with her. I mean she is in a different country, I owe her that much. I mean what if she meets the girl of her dreams but she can't go for it cause she with me.
"Hey, Rachel wait up!" I hear kurt call to me. I turn round to find him running towards me.
"What's up?" I ask.
"Daddy's hungry!" He says excitedly.
"Let's go and eat then!" I say while walking towards the cafeteria but he grabs my arm making me turn round to face him again.
"We won't be eating in their. My friend owns a little deli around the corner, I eat there everyday." He says guiding me out of the school.
"Great! I love deli food!" I say excitedly.
"So I take it you know the unholy trinity?" He asks me. What is he on about?
"The unholy trinity?" I ask.
"Quinn, Santana and Brittany!" He says.
"Oh yeah, we went to pre-school together until I had to move." I say to him.
"Clearly it was more than that...I've never heard of anyone calling Quinn 'Quinnie' before and living to tell the tale!" He says.
"What do you mean?" I ask.
"Let's just say there's a reason Quinn is queen bee around here." He says.
"Oh, she told me she wasn't like that..." I say mostly to myself.
"Looks like Quinnie has been lying to you." He says.
"Looks like she has..." I say mostly to myself.
"Can I ask you something?" He asks.
"You just did and yeah of course you can." I say and he chuckles softly.
"Why does Santana call you Mr man, I mean I know I get lady Hummel because I'm gay. But why do you get Mr man?" He asks.
"It's a long and complicated story." I say and he nods in agreement.
"I get it, I'm not gonna make you talk about it if you don't want too." He says while placing his hand on my shoulder. We both then walk the rest of the way in comfortable silence until we reach the small restaurant.
Oh my god! That food was amazing! But now we have to go back to this stupid school. At least kurt is in my next class with me, although he told me that Santana and Quinn are also in this class. I'm not really in the mood to see either of them.
Quinn's P.O.V
I stayed silent for most of lunch, part of me was doing it to punish Santana for not telling me that Rachel was back, but the other part of me just needed to think, about Rachel mostly. What if she thinks this is a real date? What if it is a real date? My dad would kill me, I mean more than he already does after a few drinks. I need to talk to Rachel about Friday night. I mean she was probably just messing me around, yeah that's probably the case.
"Are you ever gonna talk to me Q?" I hear Santana say to me, breaking me from my Rachel trance.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I ask her dryly.
"I was going too, I just didn't know how to." She says, wow that's bullshit.
"Whatever you say San. The truth is that you are afraid that Rachel will take me away from you!" I snap at her.
"Wait Rachel Berry?" Puck asks.
"Mr Man is back?" Finn asks.
"Stop calling her that! You guys hurt her so much in pre-school and I'm not gonna let you do it again!" I snap at them all.
"Babe we were just kidding." Finn says.
"Kidding or not I don't want to hear any of you say one bad word about her!" I say and they all nod in agreement.
The remainder of lunch was spent in silence. I think everyone was afraid to speak in case I ripped their heads off.
After lunch it was just me and Santana left to walk to English together. Part of me was still mad at her but the other part knows that she was doing it to protect me. She saw how hard I took it when Rachel left. I think she's afraid Rachel will leave me again and I'll go back to that place again.
Once in the class me and San make our way to our usual seats at the back of the class. Brittany used to sit in the now empty seat beside Santana but she got moved down a class cause she was failing.
The class was just about to start when kurt walks in with Rachel. I quickly look around the room to see if there was any other spare seats other than the one beside San, but there wasn't. So Rachel slowly made her way up to the seat. Rolling her eyes at me and San once she reached her seat.
I watched Rachel for the entire class, she seemed so zoned out the entire time. Like her body was there but her mind wasn't. The bell was so close to ringing when our teacher announced a new project that was worth 15% of our final grade and it was a pairs project. I hope we get to pick our partners, this could be the perfect way for me and Rachel to get to know each other again.
Turns out the teacher had another idea in mind and decided to choose our partners. After getting half way through the role she finally called my name out. Luckily Rachel's name hasn't been called yet either.
"Quinn Fabray, you'll be paired with...kurt Hummel." She says and I look over to him, I can see him rolling his eyes and placing his head on the desk. Am I really that bad? Great now I'm not with Rachel. She continues to call out names, I'm not really paying attention to the pairs until I hear her calling Santana's name out.
"Santana Lopez, you'll be with Rachel Berry. Please be nice to our new girl Santana!" She says to her and I can hear both Santana and Rachel groan.
Great! Not only I am stuck with lady Hummel, but Santana and Rachel have to work together on this stupid project together. What if they try to kill each other? Although Santana did seem pretty into Rachel yesterday, before she found out that Rachel was well...Rachel! Oh shit what if Santana has a thing for Rachel! My Rachel...I can already tell that this is going to be a long year.
Two chapters in one day! Hope you enjoyed this chapter, don't forget to leave a review and tell me what you thought of it or what you want to see happen later. Thanks!
