Home Is Where The Heart Is

Quinn was just there, lying down in bed while the doctors worked on her and tried to make sure she could actually make it. But she had lost too much blood by now. “C'mon then, we need blood as soon as possible.” The nurse said as she just helped Rachel and Finn, and guided them to the place where she could give some blood to Quinn. It took a few time until the doctor came meet up with the two of them, about an hour after the surgery had ended, just wanting to speak with them when he was sure Quinn had made it. “Rachel, and Finn? She is finally safe. We lost her a few times during the surgery, but she is finally back. She is resting and still asleep, but you can go to her room. Number 160.” While that, Quinn was just resting, little did she know that it was a miracle to be alive.

With everything going on around her, Rachel was in a daze. She was trying desperately to control her stress and anxiety. The last thing anyone needed was something happening to the baby. Even when Finn and the nurse was talking to her, she just nodded her head and waited for them to usher her from one room to another. She didn’t want to be alone so she stayed relatively close to Finn the whole time until they could see Quinn. As they walked into her room, she held onto Finn and stared at Quinn with little beads of tears in the corners of her eyes. 

Walking into the room that Quinn was in, Finn froze. The past year, he always thought that he would be the one in that bed. Or worse. Never in a million years did he think it would be Quinn. “Come on,” he said softly to Rachel. “You need to sit down. Slowly, he walked away from her, grabbing one of the chairs that was in the room, sitting it next to Quinn’s bed. “Here.” He extended his hand out to her, wanting to help her sit down. “Do you need anything, Rach?” He tugged at the sling, eyes shifting over to Quinn.

As soon as the nurse started taking care of Finn’s shoulder, Quinn was taken to the surgery room, where she spent a few long hours. The doctors were doing this best not to hurt Quinn even more, but the young doctor was bleeding a lot. “She will need blood. She lost too much blood.” A nurse said and then went to the room where Finn and Rachel were. “Do you have her blood type? Because if so, we will need one of you to give blood. If not, we will have to use some of the blood we have.” The nurse said, trying to see if Finn or Rachel could give blood. “It’s just because her blood type is a little bit rare, and we always try to save the one we have.”

Everything was happening in flashes and Rachel knew that none of this was good for any one of them. They were in a delicate situation before this and now Rachel feared they mighty truly be broken. The thought of being alone without at least Finn though was a million times worse. Rachel wasn’t about to leave Finn’s side if she couldn’t be with Quinn at least. All Rachel wanted to do was to hug them both but as the nurse came out to the lobby, Rachel looked up to her. Wiping her eyes, she tried to pull herself together. “Well I’m O negative. I know that makes me a universal donor. I’ll do it for her. I don’t think he can.” she said as she looked over at Finn and sniffled. 

Fishing the bullet out of Finn’s shoulder took a bit of time. Between the prep and the actual act, for him, it felt like it took forever. Finally, the bullet came out, with a t-shirt filled mouth of painful groans. It wasn’t until Rachel answered the nurse is when Finn opened his eyes, just trying to relax in this whole mess of a situation. Brown eyes met Rachel’s before he spoke. “I can’t give blood to her, I don’t think. I’m AB negative.” His hand squeezed her’s before he looked at her again. “Do you want me to go with you, Rach?”

Quinn ended up passing out as soon as the help came. “Don’t worry, we will take care of her.” The guy said with a tiny smile over Finn, as they just carried the blonde out of the hospital. Finn and Quinn were the last ones taking out of the hospital, but for sure, they were the ones that the photographers loved the most, since Quinn was the one everyone thought that was dead. After ten minutes, they were finally arriving at the near public hospital, but it was a mess. Tons of people were there after the private hospital, but Quinn was the one that was taken care of as soon as they arrive. “Take her to the surgery room, we have to take the bullet out of her stomach.” The doctor said, as he could already sense what was wrong. “This is going to take some time, please, take a seat, and Sir, go with our nurse, she will take care of your shoulder.” The doctor said to both Finn and Rachel, while Quinn, was just passed out.

There was no doubting the fact that Rachel’s nerves were on edge. In fact, she was surprised that all this anxiety wasn’t given her worst pains then the were now. As desperately as she tried to keep herself together to protect her baby, she was falling apart. Even after Quinn and Finn had returned, she was ready to start crying all over again. Her legs felts weak as she held herself up using the car. It wasn’t until Finn’s arms were around her that she felt any sense of relief. Although by then, a third set of tears went rolling down her cheeks. The entire car ride made Rachel feel anxious. She was constantly shaking until they got where they needed to go. She was even still crying, although by now they were silent tears. “Please don’t make him leave me. Not right now at least.” she begged the doctors as she currently paced back and forth. “I need him right now.” Rachel insisited as she felt another panic attack hitting her. 

Brown orbs fell onto Rachel as she paced back and forth. They were telling him to leaver her alone, but obviously, she couldn’t be alone right now. He looked at the doctor before looking back at Rachel. “I’m not letting you touch this shoulder until she can come back.” He stepped over to her, bringing a hand to her face. “Rach, I need you to take slow, deep breaths okay. You need to slow your heart rate down a little bit. I need you to relax, if at all possible.” He reached down, taking her hand. Looking at the doctor, he nodded, and Finn walked with Rachel back to the designated area, before starting to remove his shirt.

“You shouldn’t be here, Finn. What if someone hurts you? What if the guy hurts you? I can’t stand the idea of you being, you have to run away, you have to leave the hospital before they find you, F.” The blonde said, and then just felt tears rolling down her cheeks. She was tired of being so strong, she was in pain, she was hurt, she just wanted to go home and be with Rachel and Finn. That was all she wanted. Another shot could be heard a few minutes later, and Quinn jumped. After that one, a few more could be heard too, but Quinn was already unconscious, so she couldn’t really hear it anymore. Jason was one of the injuried people, and Jason was probably not going to make it. Quinn was losing her best friend, and once she woke up and realized that, she was going to be so broken. But, after those shots, just cops’ voices could be heard all over the hospital, and, in a few minutes later, the firefights and cops were all trying to get all the injured people out of the hospital, so they could be seen somewhere else. Quinn was still unconscious when they came to pick her up. And Jason, Jason was not even breathing anymore.

Rachel was freaking out. It was written all over her face and with each shot, it took everything inside of her not to scream out loud. She was on pins and needles as she placed her hand firmly on her growing baby bump. Rachel was sure that her heart was racing a million times a minute. People kept trying to talk to her but she didn’t want to talk to anyone but Finn and Quinn. Finally when Finn called, she quickly picked it up and listened to Finn’s voice. “Just get out of there.” Rachel’s voice was full of panic. Not being able to keep quiet any longer, when the last shots were fired, Rachel yelped in fear. Today was supposed to be filled with happiness and right now Rachel was sure the only thing she was feeling was heartbreak and fear. 

“I’m working on it. I just..I can’t carry Quinn. She’s lost a lot of blood, and I was hit in the shoulder. I’ll be out as soon as possible, okay? I love you.” With that, he hung up, knowing that he needed to get himself and Quinn out of there. At Quinn’s demands, Finn shook his head. “No,” he simply said. “The guy is taken care of. I promise. I’m sure the police are on their way up now.” He did his best to wipe away all of the tears that were rolling over Quinn’s cheeks. “I’m not going anywhere.” At the sounds of gunshots, he just blinked. He was used to that sound, but it still startled him slightly. When help finally arrived, Finn made sure that Quinn was taken first. He could walk, but he was definitely going to make sure that he followed the ambulance with Rachel. He wasn’t about to make her drive. It took a bit, but they finally made it outside. “Rachel,” he said, finally coming up to her. “They’re taking Quinn somewhere else, and I can get treated there as well, but I’m not about to let you drive.” He pressed his lips to Rachel’s forehead before looking over at Quinn.

Quinn was trying to stay awake, but the truth was that her eyes were trying to close, and she was losing the control over her own body. She was a doctor, so of course she knew this was not good. “I need to stay awake.” She murmured to herself, as she tried to keep her eyes open, thinking about something, but her mind was blank at the moment. But that was when she heard three shots, and just wrapped her arms around herself tightly, and closed her eyes. Something happened. She knew something happened and people probably needed her, she needed to get up, she needed to try and get up. But when she was trying to stand up, to go see if someone needed help, she heard a voice that she could swear was Finn’s. “The appointment.” She murmured to herself, as she opened her eyes, and yes, she saw it was Finn. Finn was right there, but he was looking like a cop. Was she dreaming? “What are you doing here? Where is Rachel? Oh my God, you’re hurt!” She said as she tried to reach for his shoulder, and tried to see what she could do to help him. “Where is Rachel? Is she hurt?”

Rachel really didn’t want to be selfish. She knew that Finn could help Quinn but logic wasn’t exactly something Rachel was doing well in at the moment. Even as Finn left her for a few moments to find an officer in charge, Rachel wanted to break down right then and there. As Finn wrapped his arms around her, Rachel held onto him tightly, not wanting to let go. “Just please, please come back. Please.” She hugged him one more time as tightly as she could, “I love you too Finn. I love you so much.” As Finn went to help, Rachel couldn’t even watch the scene in front of her. She was still crying and she could feel her heart beating a million times a minute. Instinctively Rachel put her hand on her stomach, trying to be as positive as she could but the fear that she might lose two of the most important people to her wasn’t helping. The time ticked so slowly and every moment seemed like a million. This was all turning out to be too much. 

At Quinn’s questions, Finn just tried to keep pressure applied to her wound. Once she was through asking questions, he decided to actually answer her, wanting to keep her mind off things. “I came to find you, Quinn. They were taking forever, and I didn’t want anyone else getting shot.” He glanced at the door, hoping someone would just walk into the room. “Rachel is outside. She’s safe. I left her with a police officer, which is where I got the vest.” Brown eyes met Quinn’s and he shook his head. “Rachel isn’t hurt. Worried maybe, but not hurt. We showed up here for the appointment, and found out this was going on. We were both worried about you.” Finn was still worried. Quinn needed a doctor, and soon. It looked like she had lost a lot of blood, but he had no way of calling for help for sure. At least not without alarming anyone. Using one hand, he pulled his phone out of his pocket, needing to let Rachel know that they were safe. Hearing her pick up on the other in, Finn spoke quickly. “Hey, babe. I found Quinn. We’re both in the pediatric unit, but we need some help.”

quinn-fabray-has-a-crush :

Time passed and Quinn was just starting to feel more and more pain, and she knew she was probably making some fever, her body was just reacting to this all, and was in that moment that she started crying, and she felt really scared. Quinn closed her eyes, and just pressed the wound, but she was bleeding, and a lot, she needed help, sooner than she wanted to admit. “Sophia is okay.” One of the cops said, once they were able to check the security system, and finally were able to see what they should and could do in this situation. “I am sorry.” Quinn murmured to herself and just closed her eyes. “For being jealous. I should have never been jealous. Finn is an amazing guy, and Rachel an amazing girl, I love the two of them, and I am so sorry for being jealous.” The blode whispered, she was speaking with God, because she was scared to die, she could feel it coming. Another hour passed by, and Quinn just kept losing more blood. The cops were already getting ready to get in the hospital, since a few of the people that were inside there were already outside, and giving the be cops some clues. But Quin was still locked inside, hidding behind a kid’s bed, as she waited for help. She was so scared.

For a split moment in time, Rachel was frozen in place, her heart had sank deep in her chest. For a moment she was completely emotionless. Maybe it was the fact that she still was holding out hope that it wasn’t her but then again, Rachel feared it was her too. The blonde that she loved couldn’t be gone, not yet. Rachel would of known, she would of felt it. Rachel put her hand on her stomach, feeling her heart beating faster as she stared tentatively at the front door of the hospital. She watched as people ran out of the doors and into the arms of their loved ones. Rachel hoped that one of the time, it would be Quinn running out instead. Focusing on the door, it wasn’t until Finn spoke that Rachel came back to reality. What should she say? Was she being selfish for wanting to say no? What if she lost both of them? After all, there was still some man in there with a gun. She looked up at Finn, tears streaming down her face and swallowed hard. “I can’t lose you too but…I can’t lose her either.” There was no way Rachel was going to be able to make that choice, Finn was going to have to. 

Finn shook his head. “Rachel, you won’t lose me. I promise. But there is a high risk that we might lose her.” Looking around for a moment, he saw a cop and went over to them. He explained things without going into too much detail, and they agreed to stand there with Rachel. “Thank you so much.” Walking back to Rachel, he immediately took her in his arms, hugging her. “I’m going to go get her and save as many people as I can, okay? I love you so much.” He pressed a kiss to the top of her head before taking the vest and the gun from the officer. “This nice cop is going to stand here with you, okay? I’ll be back as soon as possible.” Taking a deep breath, he pulled away from Rachel before moving to talk to the police captain. Nodding, he took off running into the building, heading straight for the pediatric unit, where he knew Quinn would be. 

Everything happened so fast. The next thing he knew, he was standing face to face with the gunman, gun pointed at him. Taking a deep breath, Finn tried to talk the guy down, but he wasn’t budging. That was when three shots were fired. Two from Finn and one from the gunman. The gunman fell to the ground, groaning in pain. Finn put the gun his was carrying in the back of his pants before moving to kick the gun away from him. “Quinn,” he called out, starting to move room to room, looking for her. It was about the fourth room he went into before he found her. “Oh my god. Quinn.” He fell to his knees beside her trying to take his shirt off to apply pressure to the wound. That was when he felt the intense pain in his arm. He had been shot in the shoulder, but, honestly, that was the least of his worries. Successfully getting his t-shirt off, Finn moved to apply pressure to her wound. “Hi, pretty girl,” he said, trying to get her mind off of it. “I’ve missed you.” He pressed a kiss to her forehead, hoping someone would come into the room soon.

“We need help! We’ve heard shots! We need cops right there, and here too!” One of the hospital’s security guys shouted once the cops finally arrived. “Do you guys know what’s happening inside?” The cops said, as they were getting ready to go inside. “No, nothing. Some people were able to leave the hospital, but they were in shock, and we barely know what is happening. But there’s doctors hurt inside, and some nurses too. They said the guy is high, or drunk.” And that was all the cops were able to say, because they noticed some photographers and journalists coming to ask some questions, so they decided to go to some private place, to talk and get everything ready. Inside the hospital, Quinn was barely breathing, but she was giving her best to stay calm, because she knew that as long as she was able to calm down, she wouldn’t feel as much pain, or at least, that was what she was trying to say herself. A nurse was sitting down next to her, as the guy just followed his way back downstairs, and watched all the cops outside, trying to get in. And once he noticed what was about to happen, he just decided to turn around and shoot another person, before he screamed. “STAY AWAY FROM HERE! Or I will just kill some more people! THE BLONDE DOCTOR AND THE OLD DOCTOR ARE NOW GONE!” He shouted to the cops. “We have two doctors dead. A blonde one, and some old man. We need to get informantion about them, now!” One of the cops said to the one with the laptop, who was inside the car, trying to get as much information as possible. “There’s two blonde doctors. Sophia Olsen, and Quinn Fabray.” The cop said after a few minutes or searching. “Well, let’s see if they have anything to do with this man.” And while people outside started to understand that one of those two doctors were dead, and probably a few more people, too, Quinn was still sitting against a door, pressuring the wound.

While they drove, Rachel remained silent for most of the ride to the hospital. Her anxiety kept growing as they got closer to the hospital. Just like Finn, she was completely oblivious of the few police cars that came zooming by. “I know you would of but I didn’t want to be the only reason you stayed. You had a job to do and I didn’t want to take that from you.” Rachel muttered as she continued to look out the window. “I love you too, Finn. I-” Rachel paused seeing all the cops surrounding the hospital. She knew something was wrong. she just knew it. “What do you think happened?” she asked in fear as she quickly opened the car door. Right then was when she heard the comment about a blonde doctor being shot and killed. Rachel’s heart stopped as she turned towards Finn. She was about to have a full fledge meltdown, “Quinn….” she muttered as fear took over and she started to cry. 

Running his hand through his hair, Finn stress level just hit the roof. When Rachel asked what he thought happened, brown eyes looked at her, a sad look on his face. A ton of bricks were suddenly on his chest when he heard the information about the blonde doctor. He knelt down in front of Rachel, seeing the look on her face. “Hey. No. It’s not Quinn, okay? It’s just not.” A sigh fell from his lips as he grabbed her hand. “Do you want me to go in and make sure she’s okay?” Finn reached up with his free hand, tucking some hair behind Rachel’s ear. “I can do that. I’m trained to do that.”

“EVERYBODY DOWN! EVERYBODY DOWN!” A man said as he walked in the hospital with a gun, ready to start shoot. Then, screams could be heard everywhere, and when a doctor tried to hold the man, he just shoot the doctor, and that was when blood started running down, and a big pool of blood could be  now seen on the floor. “THIS IS WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO MORE PEOPLE, IF YOU DON’T DO WHAT I ASK YOU TO DO!” The man shouted. He was probably 45 or 50 years old, and he looked high, or drunk. He just was not looking like a normal man, damn of course not, he had a gun on his hands, and he just hurt… Or killed one of the doctors. Quinn was on the second floor, and no one heard anything there. Everything was looking really calm, since all the doctors in that floor were just going to see their patients and laughing and smiling. Everything was looking normal. And that was when everything happened really fast. Quinn was just saying goodbye to one of the kids she normaly works with, when she heard something. “QUINN, GET DOWN!” One of the nurses screamed, but that was not enough, because Quinn turned around. If Quinn hadn’t turned around… Maybe she was still okay now. Maybe if she had got down, as the nurse said… But she was not fast enough. Quinn heard the shot, and then felt a really strong pain on her stomach… And when she looked down, blood was coming out of that little and perfect hole the bullet did.

Rachel had been stressed for weeks. Ever since Quinn had left, there had been something missing in her life so it was hard to figure out if she was just stressed over whether Quinn was even going to show up or if there was something more. There was also still the fear that Finn would be called away again at any moment. That was Rachel’s biggest fear because then she would really be alone. Rachel glanced over at Finn and nodded her head a bit as Finn talked. “I feel the same way. I just want him or her to be healthy.” Rachel paused as she took a deep breath, “I’m glad you’re finally going to get to come to one of the appointments.” She murmured as she reached to hold his hand. 

Fingers ran through his dark locks as the light turned green, and they started moving again. When Rachel said that all she wanted was the baby to be healthy, Finn smiled that famous crooked smile of his before glancing in her direction. “I am too. If I would have known you were pregnant, I probably could have asked for some leave or something.” Fingers intertwined with hers as he continued to drive, almost at the hospital. Two cop cars flew by them, but Finn didn’t think anything of it. He brought her hand to his lips, pressing a kiss to the back of it. “I love you, Rachel. I know things are rough.” Finn pulled into the the parking lot as realization hit that something was definitely wrong at the hospital. “What the hell is going on?” Quickly, he parked the car, moving to help Rachel out.

It was just another normal day at the hospital… Well, it was not that normal, since today was the big day. They were all going to find out if it was a baby girl or a baby boy, and to be honest, Quinn was a little excited about this. She may try to actually give the cold shoulder to both Finn and Rachel, but she misses them, and is excited for the baby, even if she knows that maybe she shouldn’t be part of their lives. But, even during normal days, some bad things happen, and Quinn had a feeling that something was going to happen, that was why she tried to contact Rachel, and then Finn, but nothing, none of them answered the phone. Maybe they were driving to the hospital… At least, that was what she tried to say to herself. “Everything is going to be fine. Just focus.” The blonde murmured to herself, before she called out the next patient, and stand up, shaking her hand. Today was going to be just another normal day… At least, that’s what Quinn hopes.

Today was such a bittersweet day. She was so excited to find out what the gender of their baby was going to be but something seemed different. Well of course something was different, Quinn was missing. Rachel was having a hard time letting go of Quinn. She knew she had to be happy and do what was right for her but it didn’t make things any easier. She cared about Rachel and with her pregnant being so crazy, her emotions were all over the place. She was still hoping that Quinn would come around but she was also not going to stress her out too much about it. She didn’t want to push her away anymore then she already was. Rachel anxiously sat in the car on their way to the hospital. This was the first time she was going to see Quinn in so long. There was so much excitement and happiness to look forward to. Yet, there was some sort of funny feeling that Rachel had. She couldn’t put her finger on it, there just was. “What are you hoping for?” she asked Finn as they got closer to the hospital. For the most part, their car ride had been quiet but she was trying to lighten the mood. 

The silence between Rachel and himself was almost deafening. He couldn’t tell rather it was comfortable or awkward, considering the situation that they were in. Of course, Finn was in his own thoughts, a feeling in him stomach making him feel uneasy. Between all of his other feelings, he was excited to find out the sex of the baby. It wasn’t until Rachel said something to bring him out of his thoughts. “What? Oh. Honestly, I just want a healthy baby. I don’t care about the gender per say.” Glancing over at the brunette, he smiled lightly. “What about you, babe? Which gender are you hoping for?” Stopping at a red light, brown eyes were finally settling on her. The uneasy feeling in his stomach felt as if it was getting worse, but hoping he could do something about it, he ran his fingers over his stomach briefly.

Rachel tried not to think about where everything went wrong with Quinn. She still felt like there was something much deeper going on with Quinn then just Finn coming home. She wished that somehow everything would just go back to normal but she also knew that thought was ridiculous at the moment. “I know you say that but if they call tomorrow, it’s not like you can say no. And I don’t know if I can do this by myself.” Rachel paused, trying to keep a level head without completely freaking out. “We still don’t have a nursery set up. And we don’t have anything together really at all.” Rachel took a deep breath and looked down at her hands, “I shouldn’t of waited this long to tell you. I should of done more while you were gone. Now I feel like we’re rushing and all I want is everything to be perfect.” she insisted. 

His heart was breaking for Rachel. She seemed so lost, but there wasn’t really anything Finn could do to fix everything for her. Granted, he was hurting too, but he was more concerned about the brunette in front of him than anything. “Rachel, they’re not going to call me tomorrow. I just got home. So don’t worry about that, okay? You’re not going to be alone. I won’t let that happen.” Hearing everything that still needed to be done, Finn just nodded. Ideas were forming in his head, but he knew he needed some guidance with them. “Well, how did you picture the nursery? I mean, I know we still don’t know the gender, but maybe once we do, I can do the nursery and pick up everything we need.” Hand instinctively moved to cover her stomach as if he had been there the whole time and it was a constant thing that he always did. “You need to stop stressing though, Rach. It’s bad for the baby.”

Rachel was stressed and she felt like the weight of the world was on her shoulders. Rachel stared at Finn with a blank expression for a moment, “I don’t think she’s coming back.” she muttered out loud. Rachel took another paused and looked down at her hands. “I’m pregnant, you can get deployed back at any moment and she’s gone. I don’t know what to do and I’m scared. It’s freaking me our Finn. I need a plan.” Rachel admitted. She didn’t like admitting she needed any sort of help but it was taking everything inside of her not to start crying at that moment. 

Finn looked at her apologetically. He knew most of this was his fault. Quinn would still be around if he hadn’t of come home. “Hey,” he said, voice low once she was finished talking. “Everything is going to be fine.” Eyes were on her for a moment before they moved to her stomach. “You need to stop stressing so much. Stress is bad for the baby.” His thumb caressed her leg as they sat there, trying to figure out how to make her feel better. “I can tell you that I’m not going anywhere, anytime soon, but if you need a plan, then let’s do it. Let’s come up with a plan for you.” He moved his leg for her to be in between his legs, wrapping his arms around her loosely. “I love you, and I’ll do whatever it is you need me to do.”

Rachel and Finn hadn’t really sat down to talk about the baby or what their next plan was going to be. She had always been the type of person who liked a plan, she needed that plan. Especially now that she was pregnant, the anxiety was starting to get to her more and more. She was still unsure of what was going on with Quinn and them, which was just as stressful too. Rachel sat on the couch next to Finn with a glass of herbal tea, “Listen. I need to talk to you about some things.” @armymanfinn

Finn had been laying on the couch for awhile. He just wasn’t feeling much of anything. He was finally starting to does off when he felt extra weight on the couch. It startled him, causing his body to jump just slightly. Running a hand over his face, the male looked at Rachel, sitting up a bit. “Um, okay. I’ve always heard that those words in a relationship are always bad news.” Swallowing hard, he reached over, placing his hand on her knee, which was the nearest body part to him.

xtherachelberryx :

Rachel felt like she was just talking to a wall. It was like Quinn had already given up on them, that she didn’t want to try. Why didn’t she want to at least try to work it out? Quinn had to of known that eventually Finn would be coming back. Was Rachel living in that much of a fantasy? No! She knew that if they really wanted to make this happen, that she would try. “What’s the point Finn? She’s already giving up on us.” Rachel could feel her blood boil a bit. Quinn should know how much Rachel loved her, she said it enough times. “Make whatever excuses you want for why you’re leaving but that’s all they are. They are only excuses to make yourself feel better for wanting to leave. Don’t put this one Finn and I. All we have ever done is make this relationship as included as can be. But if you want to make us out to be the bad guy, so be it!” she yelled after Quinn. Rachel’s world was crumbling before her eyes. She had Finn who wanted to leave because he thought he ruined everything and Quinn leaving because she was being well, Quinn. Rachel stood in the middle of the kitchen feel broken and tired. She was pregnant and tired. How could such a great day turn into this? Of course Rachel loved Quinn and Finn equally and with all her heart but she wasn’t just going to sit and take Quinn trying to push it on them. Rachel stood there and felt as if the world was spinning too fast around her. If things continued like this, everything would certainly fail. 

Quinn could hear Rachel screaming at her, but she really couldn’t make up her mind and go back downstairs to talk with them. “I’m doing what is the best for the two of you. How can you talk to me like this?” The blonde murmured to herself and shook her head, how could Rachel say those things about her, when all she was trying to do was actually make things work. Quinn knew Rachel needed Finn, she knew she missed him, and now, he was back. Why was Rachel acting like this? Rachel had everything she needed now! Why was she treating her lik this? Couldn’t she see she was trying to do everything to help them? Quinn just sat down on bed, and rubbed her temples, she could feel a big headache coming, and was really not the right moment, since she needed to go work.

xtherachelberryx :

All Rachel wanted was for things to go back to how they were before Finn left. Why wasn’t it that easy. At least then they were all together and happy. Now they just seemed torn and falling apart. The truth of the matter was that if Rachel lost either one of them, she probably would be heart broken and devastated. She had grown extremely close to both Finn and Quinn. She loved them both so much and now everything was at risk. She could hear the mumbling of sounds going on in the kitchen but she still didn’t leave her office until she had stopped crying a bit. There were still a few loose tears falling down her face when she went to go check on Quinn and Finn. All she could do was stand in the doorway while she listened to the end of the conversation. Finally Rachel found her voice and spoke up, “No! That’s not happening! None of this is happening! I won’t let it!” Rachel spoke quickly and forcefully. “Quinn, you’ve been in this child’s life from day one and I love you. This baby loves you and I don’t know what on earth I’d do without having you around. You’re not allowed to leave me.” Then Rachel turned towards Finn and began to shake her head, “And you! We just got you back! Yes! Things are a little crazy and Quinn’s a little on edge but you’re not going anywhere either. This baby is yours too and I love you the same as I love Finn and I want us to go back to the way things were when all of us were happy!” Rachel demanded as she started to feel the hot tears in her eyes. “We love each other! We all love each other, a lot!” 

“Oh, I am a little on edge? That was a good joke, Rachel.” Quinn shook her head and just sighed out, as she tried to focus on the food she was making for the other two, as she continued listening to Rachel and Finn talking. Well, maybe Rachel was right, or maybe Finn was right, but since ever, Quinn always put before her, and maybe now it was her turn to put herself in front, and try to do everything better for herself, not for others. “To go back to the way things were? Well, We were in high school, and then college… Do you really think this is going to work out now?” She asked as she turned around to face the other two again. “We are no longer kids, Rachel, and of course, the three of us know one of us will end up with a broken heart, and you know why? Because we won’t be in a relationship together forever.” Quinn pointed out and shrugged. “So, I am going to be the one suffering and leaving, okay? Because, we know this used to work when we were younger but now? This won’t work out!” Quinn took a deep breath and just started walking around the kitchen to prepare the table for Rachel and Finn. “You two are having a baby, so enjoy it, and be happy with this. Get married, don’t get married, whatever you two want, but I am out of this, okay? I have the right to be happy too, and to feel comfortable in a relationship, not to feel as if I am the ‘trash’, that people use when they don’t have the other person, and are horny, or something. Finn is back now, so my job here is done.” Quinn was being hard, but she was also being honest, she knew this was not going to work out. They were no longer kids, they were adults, and they were not stupid, this three way relationship would probably not work. It was fun, and yes, Quinn was in love with both of them, but she needed to suffer to let the others be happy. “Don’t expect me tonight. Now, if you excuse me, I will get ready for work.” Quinn said as she went upstairs, so she could take a quick shower, and just leave.
