Rachel: I leave Monday. I hope I’ll get the chance to say a proper goodbye!
Quinn: I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Rachel: When are you free? Or when can I see you? Any evening, besides Sunday
Rachel: So maybe tonight and tomorrow then? If I’m lucky?
Rachel: You doing okay over there?
Quinn: My family is tearing itself apart at the seams
Rachel: I was just going to say...
Rachel: Wanna talk about it?
Rachel: Want cuddles and comfort?
Rachel: Or should we find a way to be distracted?
Rachel: Combinations are good too.
Quinn: What I want to do about it is one text away and I shouldn't, but it'd be so easy.
Quinn: Something I shouldn't do.
Quinn: If you have to ask you probably don't want to know
Rachel: I have my assumptions.
Rachel: Distraction it is then but I’m here for more than that. I’m here for you!
Quinn: It's not hard to guess.
Rachel: Do you have a therapist in the area?
Rachel: I’m calling an Uber now.
Quinn: Technically? Are they any fucking help currently? No.
Rachel: What is it that you’re feeling that you want to numb?
Quinn: My younger sister is a bitch who refuses to deal with her trauma much less admit it exists. One of my best friends is dealing with her brother who has had a flare up of trauma that is possibly the same fucking trauma as said bitchy little sister. Said best friend is also worried about my older sister because they're A THING and cos Fran is having to worry about living with toxic younger sister and you know it's fucking bad when Arin gives up on somebody. Which makes all of that so much worse, cos Arin doesn't give up on anybody worth shit. Well, Fran is finally at a point where she's MAYBE coming back into herself, which like... about time, she deserves it, and best friend and Arin are both worried little miss bitch is going to fuck that up. And then I'm having to relive my trauma to a fucking stranger to try and maybe get help for it.
Rachel: Is everyone actively seeing a therapist- outside of the younger sister?
Rachel: Setbacks can be worked through, you just need extra supports in place.
Rachel: I can see why you’d want to get away from that for a while.
Quinn: Uh... I don't know. Think so? Except for Arin. Idk, can't speak for the brother but he's engaged to one if that means anything.
Quinn: It's bad when Frannie is hiding.
Rachel: I just think that extra supports is always wise and a therapist is a good place to start.
Rachel: Yeah, not a good sign. I’m sorry you have to worry. It’s a tough feeling to handle on top of everything else.
Quinn: Mmhmm, Arin mentioned something about her and Liv having holed up in her room. So, at least she's not alone but... not much better.
Quinn: Just fucking sucks. Picked the worst fucking time to get clean apparently.
Rachel: It’s never the worst time or the best time. It’s just kind of what you need to continue working towards if it’s really what you want.
Rachel: That’s up to you Quinn.
Rachel: I don’t think you want to hurt anyone but you also don’t want to feel hurt.
Rachel: Can I just hold you tonight?
Quinn: I'm tired of hurting all the fucking time.
Rachel: I’m sure it’s exhausting. I can’t imagine.
Rachel: Do you want to be held? I just want to be with you.
Rachel: I don’t want you to be alone
Quinn: It's easier to be numb, to be high, to just drift
Quinn: I mean, I'm not against it? If it's what you want, then sure.
Rachel: I get it. In my own way.
Rachel: It doesn’t fix anything. I’m not sure anything in life can actually be fixed fully but that’s besides the point.
Rachel: I just want you. I don’t want to do the wrong thing.
Rachel: I don’t want to be bad for you.
Quinn: Right now it's either you or drugs, and not of the 'mostly harmless' variety. I think we're both very much aware which is bad for me.
Rachel: I’m pulling up now, Quinn.
Quinn: Then I will meet you at the gate
