Today was Friday, the rest of the week had been quiet for Quinn's part while she adapted to her new school. Neither Santana nor Rachel had talked specifically to her since her first day. It was not that they did not talk to her at all, it was just not like before. Impersonal. The only interesting thing was when The Glee Club was about to performed in the school foodhall yesterday. The glee kids had sat and talked that they did not have the guts to make the appearance. Rachel has insisted that the more people they appeared before, the greater the chance that someone else wants to join. I spoke up.

-"Rachel is right. The more confident we seem and the more fun we have, there will surely be more people joining. And if we are afraid to preforme in front of the big crowd, we should dare to appear here, where we are safe and at home. This should be like our home turf, we shall not be afraid. Let's do this."

I took my seat behind the drums and waited for a clear sign. Rachel's eyes were locked with mine and she nodded and smiled. I could read a: Thank you. on her lips. I think the song was great. We had chosen "We Got The Beat" original made of The Go Go´s because it felt like it fit our attempt to find new members.We, in the band that played sounded great. Rachel, Santana and Brittany who made the most singing part were also great. But then something happened. There was talk that there was a guy who is very attached and hooked on Rachel who was the source of everything. But what do I know? All I know was that this guy yells: Food fight! And everything is on. It flies food everywhere and everything I see is Rachel, standing in the middle of all of it, frozen in place. So I jump from behind the drums, put my arm around her waist and hold her to my chest. We are hiding behind the purple piano sitting there curled up togheter, laughing. She takes a strand of hair that has come loose from my ponytail and put it behind my ear, she looks into my Eyes and smiles at me.

-"So, you decided to be my knight in shiny white armor."

-"Yes, what else can I do? You see a cute girl in need, of course I help."

Rachel laughed loudly at my bad attempt to flirt. She looked into my eyes again. -"Well. You did good. Thank you."

I only responded with. -"Of course."

But that it was yesterday, today it was Friday and my last day on my first week in this town. I stood at my locker when Santana approached me.

-"So, I have now stopped being angry with you."

I closed my locker and fake smiled. -"Yeah? Lucky me."

-"Yes, it's lucky for you. Now we can hang this weekend. I have heard that Puckerman is going to have a big party to celebrate / drowning our sorrows that school has begun. Want to go?"

-"Sure. Why not."

-"Awesome. Are we going to watch a movie tonight? We can be at my place."

Quinn continued to go to the next lesson. -"That will be good Santana. Whatever you want. Now I'm late for class. We can talk later."

Science. The only lesson she not shared with anyone in The glee club. She thought it would be nice, a little breathing space. Quinn sat down at a bench at the back, there was a table for two so the Place beside her was free. Quinn sat down and put her forehead on the table and drew a deep sigh. School is tough. It had been a tough long first week. Suddenly she was reminded her where she was, because someone put her bag on the table she was resting on. Quinn rose quickly and looked next to her. There was a girl there. She did not seem to notice that Quinn was there so Quinn made the effort to say hello.

-"Umm.. Hi. My name is Quinn."

The girl next to her looked at her and smiled. -"I know who you are. You are the new girl. Everybody talks about you, you know."

-"Is that so? What do they say then?"

-"They say you're the one who made Santana nice. Almost like you are some kind of messiah or so..."

Quinn laughed. Made Santana nice...? Likely. -"She has always been kind to me, we are childhood friends."

-"My name is Jane. I saw you in the foodhall yesterday. I saw you playing drums. Impressive. I guess you're in the glee club then...?"

Quinn shook her hand in a greeting. -"Yeah. I am. I like playing instruments and my friends are there so why not..."

-"Well. You could also join the school band if you want to? We co-operate a lot with the glee club so you do not have to do much more than you really do now. The difference is just that we are with all teams and clubs in school. We help football team at matches, the Cheerios with what they need. We would be happy to have a girl like you with us. Who can play many instruments I mean."

Quinn thinks, Santana and Brittany had other things besides the Glee club. She would have time for something else too. -"Sure. Why not, right?"

-"Right. Awesome! How fun. I can write down the times we meet and train and schedule and so on." Jane picked up a paper and tore off a corner. She started writing down the times on the paper.

-"Here. Just give me your number and you can write me there. It's easier." Quinn gave Jane her phone and showed how to create a new Contact.

-"Now that you have my number, I can not send the times to you. You must actually contact me first so I can answer."

-"Oh, I will." Quinn smiled her flirting smile against Jane.

-"They also say that you are the reason that Rachel Berry and Finn Hudson broke up."

This got Quinn again to sigh deeply. -"I'm not. Yes, Rachel is my friend but nothing more. Maybe even one of my best friends but nothing more than that. She was one of the first people I spoke to since I came here, so she is special to me. But we are just friends. And I do not know why she broke up with him."

Technically, Quinn was the reason why they broke up, but she did not want to say that now. And she had not talked to Rachel since her first day here. At least not personal talk. So Quinn just denied it offecially.

-"Okay. I believe you. Even though you said about five times that you're "just friends"."

Quinn laughed. It also seemed like she had a new friend.

Science's lesson was canceled. That's why no teacher came when Quinn and Jane sat talking. Quinn sat now waiting outside school for her friends. Rachel was the first to come out. She saw Quinn, waved and started walking towards the blonde.

-"Hey stranger. How was class?"

-"Hi Rach. It was quiet. Science was canceled."

-"Oh, lucky you."

-"I know. So, how are you? Are you okay? We have not had any time to talk."

Rachel looked at Quinn and fiddled nervously with the seam of her shirt. -"After the intense start between us, I needed a little space."

-"I understand that Rachel, but I miss you. You know I have no expectations of you. I just want to be your friend."

-"I said that I like you Quinn. And at that moment I realized that what I had with Finn was no longer what I wanted."

Rachel looked at Quinn with hope in her Eyes. Quinn panicked. -"Rachel, you know, I can not be it, that for you."

-"I know you've said that, but I just do not understand why not."

-"I can not Rachel. You know I'm not dating, I do not have relationships."

-"It's a bad reason Quinn. I just want to know why."

-"I can't."

Rachel turned from Quinn and began to go to her car. Quinn rushed after Rachel and hugged her from behind. She held Rachel in a firm grip and whispered in her hair.

-"Don´t leave me. Please. Do. Not. Leave. Me. I need you."

Rachel stood still in the position where she stood. She had never heard Quinn sound so insecure. She then knew there were things that Quinn did not talk about. Things she had kept hiding within herself that perhaps no one ever will see. She turned around and took Quinn's hands.

-"I'm not like any other Quinn, I'm special. And I'll wait for you, just so you know. I'll wait." And then Rachel went to her car and left. Leaving Quinn speechless and all by herself, behind.

Quinn pressed the bell on the door. She knew she had to just go in but it seemed impolite. And Quinn was a fabray, and Fabrays was not rude. Mrs Lopez was the one who opened the door. She got a big smile on her lips when she saw Quinn.

-"Oh Hello Quinn. Can you enter the magic password now?"

Quinn laughed and rolled her eyes at her best friend's mother. -"Yes, Maribel. I know the password."

Maribel Lopez laughed loudly and stepped aside to let Quinn in to the house. -"You kids manage to be alone tonight? I will go over to your mom and drink wine and talk girl-talk, but we are just a phonecall away if something should happen and you need us. You know that, right?"-"Sí. Por supuesto que lo sé. Diviértete esta noche y sé amable con mi madre." "Yes. Of course I know. Have fun tonight and be kind to my mother."

-"Sí. Sí lo haré. Llámame luego. Buenas noches." "Yes, I will, call me later." "Good evening."

Quinn and Maribel gave each other a hug and then Maribel went to the car. Quinn waved in the doorway. Quinn was surprised when she heard a voice from behind.

-"I did not know you spoke Spanish." Without turning around, Quinn knew who the voice belonged to. Rachel.

-"I don´t. But after basically growing up with a Spanish-speaking family, some get stuck. What are you doing here?"

-"Did not you know I was coming?"

-"No, hence my surprised face."

-"Santana said you had talked about a movie night and she insisted that it was her turn to choose so I had to attend."

One voice came from the tv room. -"I do not sound like that! That was not what I said. I said, and I quote: Hobbit! Take your tiny little flat ass home to me tonight. It's my turn to choose."

-"As I said, she insisted."

-"HOBBIT!"

Quinn chuckled for her friends. -"Oi, Santana. I'm just going to leave my stuff in the guest room. That's where I'm going to sleep, right?"

-"Yeah. And bring The Hobbit so she can leave her stuff there with you. She gets to sleep in the other bed in the guest room. Britt's sleeping with me in my room."

-"Coming down in a sec. Is this yours?"

Rachel nodded. -" A-ha."

Quinn took the two bags and walked up the stairs and into the room where the guest room was. The room was large, there was more space than for just two beds. But that was what was there. The rest of the room was simple and clean. It felt a bit empty and cold to be comfortable. But that's the case with the guest room, Rachel thought. Quinn pointed at a door.

-"There is the bathroom that belongs to. There are towels in this cabinet and extra toothbrushes if you need."

-"You seem to really know your way here."

-"As I said before, I spent some time here as a child."

-"I see. So, which bed is yours?"

-"That one."

-"You mean this...? The one I stand closest to."

-"Yep. Exactly."

-"And if I call dibs on this one. Then What?"

-"You can´t. It's mine."

-"But oh, Quinn, I did it right now."

-"Fine. But I will not tell you where there are extra blankets, we will see if you freeze tonight then when it gets Cold."

Rachel fake gasped and put her hand on her chest, very dramatic. -"Quinn Fabray, you will not let me freeze. Imagine if I'm getting a Cold. Then you have to take care of me if I get sick, because it's really your fault."

-"My fault? But you took my bed. You started it."

Quinn looked at Rachel and saw that she had something in her eyes. She looked mischievous out in any way. Indeed, in the next moment, Rachel had thrown herself over and straddled Quinn. Rachel then began to tickle Quinn.

-"Say uncle, Quinn! Say uncle and that you will not let me freeze to Death, for this to stop. Say uncle!"

Quinn laughed so she could hardly talk. -"Un... Unc... Uncle... Uncle!"

Rachel remained over Quinn but sat straight. Then her eyes became serious.

-"Kiss me, Quinn." Quinn said nothing. -"I promise it does not have to mean anything, but only for once. Just this once. Kiss Me."

Quinn took ten deep breaths, then she kissed Rachel. It began slowly and cautiously, but became immediately more needy. Quinn pulled her tongue along Rachel's lower lip and Rachel gave her permission to her mouth by opening it. Teeth meets teeth, while Quinn's hands move up along Rachel's spine and in her hair. She moves her fingers on the scalp at Rachel who gives a slight groan in response. When the lack of air becomes an obstacle, the kiss ends. Both remain in the same position and breathe heavily. Rachel is the first to speak out.

-"Wow. You kiss all your friends like that?"

Quinn laughed and shook her head. -"No. Just you."

-"I am glad. I have never kissed anyone like that before. Never."

-"Me neither."

A few minutes passed without any of them saying anything. Again, Rachel broke the silence. -"Do you think Santana and Brittany miss us?"

-"I do not know. I do not think so. I can imagine they are doing worse than we do."

-"Yeah. I do to. Maybe we should go down before it gets too late."

-"Okey. Hey you? Thank you."

Rachel looked surprised at Quinn. -"For What?"

Quinn blushed.-"Oh you know. For being you. I know I'm complicated, but I meant what I said when I said I needed you. I do, so thank you for being you."

-"I also meant what I said Quinn. I'll wait for you. Come on, let's go down. I get the feeling that Brittany and Santana are not a couple who think about their surroundings when they are alone together whit to much time and nothing to do but each other."

Rachel grabbed a laughing Quinn's hand and led her down the stairs...
