Falling Into History
Chapter Thirteen: Sectionals
Disclaimer: I don't own Glee no matter how much I dream about it at night. Oh wow hi everyone, can I say how extremely sorry I am for not updating for so long. I was sideline by a lung infection not long after the last update and just when I thought I kicked it's ass it came back and bit me in the ass hard. So hard that I had to spend another few days in the hospital. So please, please don't kill me. A good thing about having so much time on my hands is that I was able to go back and do some serious editing on all my stories. So if you go back and reread it you'll see that my mistakes have been corrected. Hopefully I got all of them and the stories flows better now. As always thank you guys for your awesome support. Okay kiddies on with the show.
Chapter Thirteen: Sectionals Rachel paced nervously around the room tomorrow she and the rest of the club will be competing at sectionals. She needed a minute to herself to clear her mind since they're next to perform. From what her mother told her in confidence the fate of the club is resting on this performance. For the last week and a half she's been struggling on whether or not to tell her girls and the rest of the club about the ultimatum Figgins gave her Mom. But she doesn't what to give them any added pressure since their nervous as it is. Everything her mother shared with her left her feeling nervous and slightly sick. They all had enough to deal with because of Mercedes no longer being in the club and walking away from the play, so Rachel kept her worries to herself. Everyone put in extra-long hours reorganizing the routines to fix the holes Mercedes left. They were all really surprised the Finn didn't use this as an excuse to walk away as well. Her girls told her that they think he's up to something, but they just have to wait and see what it is. Hopefully he won't screw them over tonight like Mercedes tried. Rachel grimaces remembering the how the girl flipped out.Flashback
The Glee club stares after their former director strut out the door in shock. A satisfied smirk was planted on his face as he waved bye to his former students. His parting words not completely sinking in until Mercedes jumps up screeching, "I knew it! I knew you were playing favorites this whole time!" Shelby looks at her student blankly not really comprehending what she was implying. Mercedes huffs gathering her belongings, "I knew I was better than Berry. I should've had that solo," she points a finger in Rachel's direction, "but you had 'Mommy' give it to you." Rachel shakes her head trying to reassure her, "No, Mercedes I wouldn't do a thing like that. I promise that Mom's decision was fair and she had no input from me." Mercedes looks at her in disbelief, "Fair? Nothing about this is fair! You get everything! I'm so tired of being a supporting character of the 'Rachel Berry Show'. When is my turn to shine?" Rachel untangles herself from her girls' grip walking up to Mercedes cautiously, "When have I ever gotten everything Mercedes? In case you missed it, this last three years have been hell for me. Bullied, slushied and mocked which one of those things scream out fair?" "Are you kidding? Everyone in this room been slushied at some point, so sue me if I don't feel sorry for you," Mercedes sneers. "Poor damaged Rachel, she has the school's biggest bitches at her beck and call. What are you fucking them so they can be your puppets?" Quinn and Santana growl lunging over chairs to strangle the girl, but the boys grab them midair preventing them from doing any damage. Shelby managed to circle her arms around her daughter's waist before the tiny terror could attacked. Mercedes snickers clapping, "Well isn't this just precious, once again Rachel Berry has everyone wrapped around her manly little fingers." Quinn struggles against Sam's hard grip leaving red angry scratch marks on his arms, "You little bitch stop talking about my girlfriend that way! I swear to god I'll kick you're fucking head off!" "I knew the little slut was fucking one of you but what about Sluttana? How does she feel about being thrown aside for a very ugly trannie?" Mercedes mocks feeling extreme confident and safe with the HBICs restrained. "How sad and pathetic that for someone who claims to be so hot and sexy gets dumped for a cripple and an it." Quinn stomps down on Sam's foot with a painful yelp he loosens his hold allowing her to wriggle out of his hold. She launches herself at the unsuspecting diva, making her scramble backwards falling over a chair. Before Quinn could wrap her hands around Mercedes throat like she was itching to do a pair of strong feminine arms hauled her back. In a mixture of Yiddish and Spanish Quinn twisting around in Brittany's firm embrace, "I told you never speak about my girlfriends like that!" Mercedes sits with her jaw to the floor, surprised that she was right, "That's disgusting! Two girlfriends? How big of a slut are you, Berry?" Rachel flinches but Shelby tightens her hold giving Rachel her support, "I don't believe we asked you for your opinion on the matter and the only people that mean anything to us support our relationship." Mercedes stands up feeling a bruise starting to form on the small of her back, "I can't in good conscious be a part of a club that promotes this type of filth and depravity." Kurt who was sitting mute throughout the whole exchange lifted his head staring at his best friend in disbelief, "Are you trying to imply that because their gay it's filth? Is that how you feel about me as well?" Mercedes stops to look at her oldest friend quickly trying to back pedal over her mistake, "I love you Kurt you're my best friend, so you should know me better than that. I was taking about this sick relationship these three have…" Kurt shakes his head, "Love is love 'Cedes, so what's wrong with loving more than one person." Shelby unclenches her teeth, "It doesn't matter what your answer is Mercedes I what you to leave this room and never come back. I refuse to allow you to verbal assault my daughter and her girlfriends. I refuse to allow you to insult me and the rest of this club." Mercedes looks over mildly shocked, "I'll talk to the office about assigning you a new homeroom." Mercedes stands up straight honestly surprised that Ms. Corcoran followed through on her threat to kick her out of the club. She looks over to Kurt for support but he looks away clearly not buying her excuses anymore. "Fine I don't need you or this pathetic bunch of losers anyways," she shoulders her bag giving the group one last glare before storming out of the room. Shelby loosens her hold on Rachel and turns her around to face her, "Are you okay?" Rachel barely nods her head. Shelby looks to her other two daughters, "What about you girls?" Santana elbows Puck in the stomach, he grunts dropping his arms finally allowing the irate Latina to get free, "I'm fine Mom." She gives Puck one of her famous death glares before gathering a shaken Rachel in her arms." Brittany flushes backing away from Quinn, "Um s-s-sorry Quinn I didn't mean to manhandle you or anything but I just didn't think you should beat Mercedes down." Quinn stares at her wearing a dazed expression, everything that she said in the last five minutes finally penetrated her angry haze. She just came out to everyone who didn't already know that the girls were all in a relationship together. Knowing Mercedes like she does the whole school will know about them and Rachel's and Shelby's relationship by lunch. She sits down swallowing hard, "Its fine Britts thank you. It probably wasn't the best idea for me to get in a fight." Santana stopped rubbing Rachel's back noticed that Quinn's voice seemed off, "Are you okay Q? You sound kind of weird." The bell rang signaling the end of the period but the Gleeks ignored it waiting to make sure their friends were okay. Well except for the two boys that were just in shock and Brittany who was just confused about what her place was now. Quinn swallows looking up afraid about what her girls reaction will be when they realize what she did, "Um you do realize that by the time lunch rolls around everyone's going to know that we're together and that Shelby's your Mom, right?" Quinn looks down the tips of her ears turning red, "I didn't mean to out us honest but Mercedes made me so mad and… and I couldn't help myself." The brunettes give themselves a mental face palm before rushing to their girlfriend's side. Santana lifts her up settling herself into the chair and pulls Quinn on her lap. Rachel hugs them both resting her forehead on Quinn's, "Hey, hey I'm not mad and San's not mad, it just happened. I would never be upset about you protecting us." Quinn moves her head back and opens her mouth to protest but Santana kisses her to silence her objections. Quinn whimpers opening her mouth slightly to let in Santana's talented tongue. Rachel smirks she always enjoys this particular method Santana's employs to calm her down. It's nice to see that it also works for her other girlfriend. Shelby clears her throat, "Okay girls that's enough, I've said it before I really don't need to see my daughter or her girlfriends trying to swallow each other faces." Shelby pulls a disgusted look. Quinn buries her face in Santana's neck clearly embarrassed that she was making out in front of her girlfriend's Mom again. Santana satisfied grin shows no remorse, "Uh sorry Mom, I guess I got carried away." Shelby rolls her eyes saying dryly, "Clearly, San." She shakes her head sighing, "I think everyone needs to get to class and I need to go talk to Figgins and do some damage control. Anything else we can further discuss during practice and I need to redo parts of the routines to make up for Mercedes leaving." Artie clears his throat rolling up to the families little bubble, "So what Mr. Schue said was true, you're Rachel's Mom?" Rachel stops playing with Santana's silky hair, "Um yes it's true but I assure everyone that my solo was based on talent and not favoritism despite what Schue or Mercedes says." Artie chews on his lips, "I'm not sure how I feel about this but unlike Mercedes I won't walk out before sectionals. If anything I'll wait until after to make up my mind." With that Artie rolled out in a steady pace. Puck looked after him frowning not really trusting him or his word. After what they did to him these past few weeks it wouldn't surprise him at all if he and Finn walked away. Sam was having the similar thoughts, he like Puck plan on keeping a close eye on the boy. They weren't too worried about Kurt, he needs them more then they need him at this point, but either way they'll keep an eye on him as well. The Gleeks shuffled out the door reluctantly leaving their friends alone. Kurt paused at the door looking like he had something on his mind, but he just shook his head and followed the rest of the Gleeks out the door. "I don't understand how he found out that we are related Rae, if I'd known then I could've done some damage control." Shelby sighs feeling a headache starting to form, "You three get to class and please, please, please try not to get in any fights." She kisses all three girls on the cheek, "Rachel I need to talk to you after practice so wait for me, okay?" Rachel nods, "Okay Mom." She drags her girls out the door after her mother hands her an excuse to give to their teacher so they won't get in trouble for being late. Quinn bites her nails avoiding Santana's eyes, "Are you sure that you're not mad at me for basically outing us?" Rachel rolls her eyes before pulling Quinn kissing her in the middle of the hallway. Even though class already started there was still enough stragglers left to witness the kiss. Quinn pulls back sporting a goofy grin she always gets when one of her girls kiss her silly. Before her brain could function properly again another pair of perfect lips attach themselves to her own. She vaguely hears Rachel's teasing voice in the distance, "Does that answer your question, silly girl?" It wasn't until she was seated at their desk that her brain finally thawed out. She looked around confused wondering when and how did she get there. End FlashbackRachel sighs it's been a long week and a half and it's not over yet. She feels her phone vibrate in her pocket when she pulls it out she gasps at the time. It's nearly time to go on and she hasn't finished getting ready yet. Her makeup and hair is done but she still needs to put on her outfit. Her phone vibrates again this time Santana's name flashes across the screen. She feels bad ignoring her girls and her mother but she needs some time to mentally prepare. She almost wishes that Shelby never told her about the ultimatum but then again it's what going to push her to do the best job she can.
Flashback
Rachel stays in her seat while a somber Glee club leave the room. They had their work cut out for them since Mercedes was out of the club. Shelby's plan was simple and not much of the routines changed. Tina and Brittany were going to take the parts Mercedes was to be featured in. Although they don't have her power they still have great voices and are determined to shine. Quinn kisses Rachel gently on her forehead, "Are you sure you don't want us to stay babe?" Rachel shakes her head, "No Mom said she'll give me a ride home so you two go ahead and I'll see you at home." Santana pouts before kissing her tiny girlfriend, "You know I really digging this. I can kiss you or hold your hand freely now instead of having to hold myself back." She winks at Quinn snagging her hand, "This is so fucking cool." Rachel smiles nods she was also loving the fact that she can kiss her girls whenever and wherever she wants now instead of having to wait until they got home. Quinn smiles happy that her girls weren't pissed that she screwed up, "Okay baby we'll see you at home." She kisses her one more time before giving Santana a turn, "Were you just dropping her off Mom or were you staying for dinner?" She smirks at Santana teasing her again, "Since the ban on was lifted I was planning on cooking us dinner tonight." Santana mock glares at her, "Keep rubbing it in Twinkie and you'll be banned from my bed." Rachel lifts a brow, "Really do I get a say in this?" Shelby covers her ears, "Okay, okay stop please. I've had enough torture for today, I don't need to sit through another one of your mating rituals. But yes I'll be staying for dinner Quinn, thank you." Quinn laughs obviously enjoying inflecting torment on her parents. She pulls a pouting Santana behind her. Shelby amused laughter follows them out the door, "Thank god." Rachel giggles bring her back to the matter at hand. Shelby sighs debating on whether or not she should tell Rachel the situation they're in. It's either she tells Rachel or let Sue do the dirty work but she runs the risk that Rachel will be pissed off or hurt. "Fuck it," she mutters. She looks up to see Rachel looking at her with a concerned expression, "Okay I'm going to tell you something that I probably shouldn't not because I want to keep things from you. I just don't want you to have some added pressure, but I think you should know in case that asshole decides to drop anymore bombs." Rachel scoots her chair closer to her Mom's rest a comforting hand on hers, "You can tell me anything you need Mom. I promise I can keep a secret contrary to popular belief I can control my mouth." Shelby smiles weakly, "Okay I'm just going to say this please try not to interrupt me until I'm done." Rachel nods and she takes a deep breath, "If we don't win at sectionals Figgins plans on disbanding the club. As of today my job is also on the line along with David's. I don't understand what Schue did but he managed to convince some school board members that our behavior is inappropriate." Rachel gasps squeezing her mother's hand tighter, "Mr. Harrison, do you remember Mr. Harrison?" Rachel cocks her head to the side thinking, "Vaguely, wasn't he the man that was here when Mr. Schue got suspended?" Shelby nods, "That's correct, he doesn't believe any of the lies Schue is spreading but we need to tread carefully. If a student issues a complaint for any reason, it doesn't actually matter what it is, there's a good chance we'll be fired. Hopefully Mercedes or her Mom doesn't file a complaint about today but the good thing is that there are plenty of witnesses today. The bad thing is that most of them are your friends and I know them outside of school." "You and David have nothing to worry about Mom. You're both wonderful teachers and you're students love you and I know you said not to speak until you're done but I won't sit back and allow you to become depressed over this." Rachel takes a deep breath, "Mr. Schue and Mercedes are bitter unhappy people who thrive on making the people around them just as unhappy as they are. Mr. Schue is and always will be a Lima Loser and if Mercedes continues in the same path as she is right now, she'll be one as well." Shelby smiles squeezing her hand in thanks, "I know that, I don't need this job but I do love it. I love being the director of this club even though a few of you are little shits." She smirks at Rachel light laughter, "But David kind of needs this job and I feel guilty that I brought him into this crap with Schue." Rachel shakes her head, "Even if you didn't recommend David and he got the teaching position anyways, he still would be a target. Simply because he's related to Santana and for some reason Mr. Schue hates us." "Because he's jealous," a voice in back of them causes them to jump. They turn to the door to find Coach Sylvester leaning on the door smirking at them, "Look as Barbara Junior said he's a Lima Loser and never would've gone anywhere even if he didn't marry his psycho ex. But you and the other singing monkeys have the chance to be more than he could ever be." Shelby frowns, "This is a private conversation Sue, you're being awfully rude." Sue shrugs her shoulders, "I say a private conversation is just an invitation for someone such as myself to gain information." Shelby shakes her head stifling her laughter, "But I just wanted you to know that if you or Ricky Martin need someone to vouch for you I'll happy to do it. Not because I like you or anything, I just hate William more." With that she disappears as fast as she appeared leaving mother and daughter to stare after her in awe. "You know Mom I don't think she's half as bad as everyone assumes." Shelby smirks, "Not quite as evil as I first thought, not that I think she's an angel just misunderstood." Rachel nod before narrowing her eyes seeing something on her mother's neck. Rachel leans in closer frowning at the bruise half way hidden by her blouse. Her mouth drops open in disbelief, "Is that a hickey!?" Shelby hand covers her neck, "NO! Absolutely not," she stands up gathering her things, "I, uh burned myself with a curling iron." She does a mental face palm at that stupid juvenile excuse. She puts distance between her and her daughter and starts gathering her notes, "Are you ready to leave? I'm sure your girlfriends are missing you right about now." Rachel leans back laughing at her mother obvious discomfort, "A curling iron? Really Mom, that excuse never works." Shelby scowls at her as she walks out the door. Rachel quickly gathers her belonging and follows her out of the room. She couldn't wait to tell her girls about this newest devolvement. End FlashbackRachel sighs knowing that she can't hide forever plus she really wants one or both of her girls to hold her. Rachel hops off the table and gathers her purse. She looks up surprised when the door to biology lab opens suddenly. Rachel rolls her eyes playfully when her two very hot, very smug girlfriends walk into the room. She drops her purse on the floor playfully backing away from Santana. She licks her lips eyeing their outfits. (Picture Quinn and the Glee boys wearing a black suit similar to the ones in 'Me Against The Music' with the fedora. While Santana, Rachel and the rest of the Glee girls wearing a red suit similar to the one in 'Smooth Criminal'.) She smiles at her newly blonde (again) head with blue streaks. Quinn surprised everyone by dyeing her hair back just for this performance.
Santana saunters up to Rachel giving her a look that could melt steel, "Looky what we have here Q, I think we bagged ourselves a hobbit." Rachel crosses her arm scowling as Quinn hops onto the table that Rachel just got off of, "Hmm a sexy little hobbit, can we keep her S?" Santana stalks closer making Rachel walk backwards until she bumps into Quinn's legs. Quinn parts her leg letting Rachel fall in between them. The shorter brunette smirks when Santana places her hands on Quinn's knees effectively trapping their diva between their bodies. Rachel deadpans, "Oh no, I'm trapped please don't hurt me." She ghosts her lips along Santana's jawline while she rubbed her back on Quinn's front, "I'll do whatever you want me to do." Her smirks eerie identical to Santana's cocky smirk when Santana let out breathy little moans and Quinn's nipples harden poking her back. Quinn scoots closer to the edge circling Rachel's slender waist pulling her closer. She grins wickedly hearing one of her brunettes moan loudly. She nuzzles Rachel's neck, "Whatever we want Rae? Hmm that's dangerous because I have so many naughty things I want to do to you and San. So please don't give me anymore ideas." Santana chuckles, tilting her head to give Rachel better access, "You're such a horn dog Quinnie, but if you keep this up Rae I swear I'm going to throw you down and have my wicked way with you." Rachel feels a surge of arousal shot down to her center, "Oh fuck San, you can't say things like that and expect me to perform properly on stage." Quinn bites down on Rachel's neck, not enough to leave a mark but enough for Rachel to further ruin her panties. "Oh wow you two are going to be the reason we lose sectionals if you keep this up." It was Santana's turn to tease Rachel, the look that she gives Rachel is enough to make her forget her name and anything else that didn't involve her girls, "Ask me after I make you explode if I care what place the Gleeks come in." Rachel feels all the moisture in her body rush down to her center, "Oh fuck you two don't play fair." Santana grins feeling rather proud of herself for reducing her nervous hobbit's mind into mush, "Are you calmer now baby?" Rachel nods leaning her head back on Quinn's shoulder, "You minx I'm calmer than I was ten minutes ago. Although I do seem to have another problem thanks to you and Quinn." Santana pulls a face of pure innocence but the mischievous glint in her eyes gave her away, "I have no clue what you mean babe, but chop chop we have to get you dressed, your hair did and ready to go on stage." She steps away smiling, "I promise not to take too much pleasure in undressing you slowly unveiling every delectable inch of skin for my greedy eyes." Quinn grunts still kissing the spot she bit, "Our greedy eyes, sorry baby." Rachel giggles, "Somehow I don't believe you, either of you. I think you're taking an extreme amount of pleasure in turning my mind to a puddle of goo." Quinn giggles girlishly lifting her head reluctantly and too Rachel's displeasure, "You wound me Rae, I take no satisfaction in this. This is all for the good of Glee, we need our captain focused on the performance." Rachel rolls her eyes again, "Whatever you say Quinn, I still don't believe you." She loosens Quinn hold on her waist and entwines their fingers, "But thank you for taking my mind off the competition for a few minutes." She brings their hands to her lips and kisses Quinn's fingers gently, "How did you find me anyways? I thought you'd never look for me in a science lab." Santana grins pulling her girlfriends to the door, "We looked for you in the choir room first but you weren't there. Then Q thought you might be under the bleachers but I thought you were probably in the last place we'd look." Quinn grabs Rachel's purse shutting off the light and shutting the door, "So I said let's try the art room or science lab." Santana swings their joined hands playfully, "Of course we looked in the art room first, low and behold science lab, the last place we'd look. It's a good thing we found you though 'cuz Mom and Mami were going crazy." Quinn snuggles closer walking with her head on Rachel's shoulder, "Plus Santana was missing you like crazy. It was seriously pathetic." Santana scowls at her other girlfriend, "Fuck off Quinn, you were the one sitting in the corner pouting not me." Quinn flips her off, "You were sitting on my lap whining Satan." Santana opens her mouth but snaps it shut when she couldn't think of something to refute that comment. Rachel sighs content sandwiched between her girls, it took a while but the backlash from Mercedes gossip finally died down. Thankfully the people that would've been the biggest offenders last year were their biggest advocates aside from their friends.Flashback
The next day the girls walked into school like they normally did, ignoring the whispers and pointed glances their way. They were honestly surprised that no one came up to them yesterday to question the rumors that Mercedes was spreading. But of course they dropped their guard to soon, when the puck heads cornered them at their lockers before homeroom. "Yo freaks," hockey team captain Rick 'The Stick' Nelson walks up to them slushie in hand. "I heard from a little birdie that you three are bumping uglies." He leers at Santana and Quinn, "It's a shame that you two are going to the all you can eat buffet but since you're hot I'll want to watch." Santana narrows her eyes ready to hit him over the head with his own stick, but Rachel tightens her hold on her waist. Rick screws up his face when he looks at Rachel, "But I can't understand why you're throwing away you're hotness and popularity for Man Hands. She must be blackmailing you or something." His buddy giggles like a little girl high fiving the player next to him. Quinn grits her teeth itching to kick his balls into his throat but holds herself back because she was stupid enough to promise Rachel that she won't fight today. Rick shakes his cup, "Now that you're plummeting into the bottom of the ladder, we thought a welcome to Loserdom would be appropriate." Rachel lifts her chin up defiantly, "Wow I'm surprised that you even know a few words with more than two syllables let alone what the mean." Rick flushes clearly embarrassed at the laughter behind him, he growls cocking his hand back ready to throw them his slushie. Quinn squeezes her eyes shut pulling Rachel's face to shoulder while pulling Santana behind her. Rachel squeals while she and Santana try to cover Quinn's face accidently poking her right eye. A few seconds ticked by and the girls were met with silence, Quinn takes the chance and opens the eye that isn't injured. Rachel and Santana lift their heads from their hiding places and all three were shocked to see an angry Karofsky squeezing Rick's wrist. The smaller boy crawled at the tight grip, while the bigger football players surrounded the rest of the hockey players. Azimio never liked these three girls much only because he found them annoying but he owes them for everything they did for his best friend whether they know it or not, "What's this guys? Why are you picking on this girls that are so much smaller than you?" A particularly brave puck head decides to pipe in, "Dude they're like sick and perverted, it's bad enough their dykes but all three are in a relationship together its just wrong." Santana growls hugging her girls close, "You're just pissed that I have two hot girlfriends when the only chick stupid enough to date you is inflatable." He glares at Santana ready to retaliate regardless of being surrounding by a bunch of big jocks but Sam and Puck flex their muscles making him back down. Mike smiles kissing the girls on their cheeks before standing in front of his Lesbros, "Okay here's the stitch idiots these girls are so off limits that means if you even think about doing something stupid them, 50 years from now your great grandkids will still be at the bottom of ladder." Karofsky finally let's go of Rick's wrist, "I know that with all the hits to head you losers get it made you a little slow so we'll dumb it down for you. Santana, Quinn and Rachel off limits that means no slushies, no body checks, no taunting." Puck's smirks, "It means that you basically have to cross the street if you see them outside of school. Because if I find out that they've been harassed in any way Finn's little slushie bath will seem like child's play compared to what we'll do to you." Sam grins, "Just nod if you understand." Rick glares trying to save face, "Dude we have the same amount of players so what makes you think you can scare us?" A basketball player that neither girl knows struts up to the crowd, "The basketball teams have their backs along with the soccer teams, rugby. Shall I go on?" Rick glares at the boy before signaling for his team to leave, "Just watch yourself dykes, you can't have bodyguards around you all of the time." The girls watched amused as the puck heads walked away tails between their legs with the rest of the students at were gathered around. Santana clears her throat, "Um thanks for that guys, seriously I wasn't expecting it but we thank you for your support." Azimio rolls his eyes, "I don't like you much, I think you're a bitch." Santana grins agreeing, "But you three deserve to be in whatever kind of relationship you want." He scratches his head looking very confused, "I don't understand how the dynamics work but hey whatever makes you happy, so you do you." Rachel head stayed were Quinn shoved it earlier, but now she was wearing her megawatt smile, "Thank you Azimio and everyone else for your wonderful timing. Thank you for having our back as Santana would say." She holds out her hand for him to shake but Azimio looks at her not really sure if she was for real. Regardless he takes her small hand into his larger one shaking it, careful not to hurt her delicate hand. How did I ever think this dainty hand ever resembled a man's? He thinks idly. Karofsky smiled at the scene before him, it took a while to make his buddy understand that he was the same person he's always been. It didn't matter who or what he was attracted to, he was still the same boy he grew up with. It was thanks to Santana and Quinn although it wasn't their intention he owed them all the same. Quinn shakes her head leave it her babies to build bridges without realizing it. Completely missing the fact that she was the one that came up with the plan in the first place. Santana covered her mouth to hide the smile at Azimio and Shane's bemused face, yeah her babies are something special. Puck rolls his eyes, "Okay kids let's get to class before we're late." He shoos the players away before saluting his Lesbros, dragging the other Gleek boys with him. Rachel leans against the lockers somehow exhausted already and the day hasn't even started. She smiles when Quinn brushes back her hair lovingly, "Are you okay baby?" Rachel kisses the cupping her face, "Yes baby I'm good just shocked that the football players and other jocks actually stepped in to defend us." Santana chuckles, "I guess I'm not the only one getting in touch with my inner vagina." Her girls give her a 'what the fuck look?' that has her chuckling even louder, "It's just something I said to Brittany during our talk so don't worry, I'm not going crazy." She touches her chest over her heart, "Promise." Quinn snickers she can only imagine what exactly brought that particular expression to light, "I still want everyone to be careful, we might have the support of the jocks which is amazing, but I don't want to get caught unawares." Her girls nod agreeing with that, "Come on babes lets go see what Mom is up too." The trio talk quietly ignoring the fact that two very pissed off people were staring at them from across the hall. Mercedes turns to Finn, "There has to be a way to get even with those bitches, not everything can possible go their way. Plus Kurt's still mad at me and hasn't returned my phone call," she pouts. Finn shrugs not caring about her or her problems, "He's an idiot like the rest of them, but we can use him to make those bitches pay." He smirks evilly, "Even if he doesn't know it." Mercedes shivers at the cold tone in his voice, "Whatever you say Finn, I have to go to the office to find out what's my new homeroom so I'll talk to you later." Finn shrugs walking to the choir room plotting his next move. End FlashbackIt wasn't and still isn't all perfect and peaceful but not for the most part their peers leave them alone. Of course there's a few people that want to voice their opinions about their relationship but there's a lot of jocks and rest of their friends to dissuade them if they wanted to get to rowdy.
Rachel pecks out into the crowded auditorium seeing all of Santana's family there to show their support. It felt odd have someone out there cheering her one, of course her fathers were too busy to make it but at least she has her Mom and the in laws (?) there. Rachel swallows starting to panic a little, so much is riding on this performance. Not just a trophy but her clubs fate and her Mom's job. Rachel feels her nerves starting to get worse and for the first time ever she wants to run away and hide in a hole. She jumps when she feels a warm hand on her shoulder, "You okay baby?" The husky voice she loves washes through her, "Yeah baby, I just find myself more scared then I usually an before a performance." She swallows the panic bubbling to the surface, "What if I screw up my lines and I lose the competition for us, Quinn?" She feels Santana hug her from behind and instantly relaxes, "Hey none of that starfish," she giggles at the silly nickname Santana recently started calling her, "you'll be awesome and perfect as always." Quinn grins, "Yeah because who was the one that saved our ass sophomore year when the other teams stole our set list." She kisses Rachel's temple, "Once you're on stage I know that all your worries will wash away, if not look to this spot here because Santana and I will be right here sending you our strength, okay?" Rachel starts to feel a little calmer now but she still has a nagging feeling that something is about to go wrong, "Okay but…" Quinn cuts her off with a long sweet kiss that melts her brain. She feels Santana nuzzling her neck turning her into a bigger pile of Rachel goo. Quinn pulls back looking very satisfied with herself, "Better?" Rachel's eyes glazed over as she nods but doesn't really hear the question. Shelby decides it's time to step in before this turns into a full blown make out session, "Okay Rae it's almost time to take your mark, whatever happens know that I'm extremely proud of you." She looks around as the Gleeks gather around them, "Of all of you, you guys really stepped up and made me proud. Whether we win or lose I know that this club, you guys are the best group here." Puck smiles proud of himself and his team, after the hell they've been put through since the beginning of the year he knows his buddies are the strongest people he knows. Shelby smiles, "Alright kids take your mark, Rachel I know you'll be fabulous so go stand on your mark." Rachel smiles thinly before detangling her limbs from Santana's vice like grip. Quinn watched her closely for minute before pulling her back, "I get that the timing may or may not suck but I need you to know something before you go on. The both of you." Both of her girls have a curious expression on their face as they wait for her to continue. Quinn smiles shyly, "I love you." She takes a deep breath and exhales slowly, "I don't need for you to say it back but I just thought that you should know before you go on." Silence echoed throughout the back stage as the rest of the Gleeks looked on waiting to see if they would reciprocate, but when the announcer called for places Quinn gently pushed Rachel to her mark. Quinn smiled from her place as Rachel watched her still dazed. Rachel snapped to attention when the spotlight shined on her. She shook herself and belted out the first line: Do you remember when we were just kids?And cardboard boxes took us miles from what we would miss Quinn smiles watching her girl hold the audience in the palm of her hand. She had no need for music or anything flashy just her voice pure and simple, a cappella. She's already killing it. Quinn stiffens a little when she feels a hand slip into her own, but relaxes when Santana kisses her temple. School yard conversations taken to heart
And laughter took the place of everything we knew we were now I wanna break every clock
The hands of time could never move again
We could stay in this moment
Stay in this moment Santana leans up whispering in Quinn's ear, "I love you too." For the rest of our lives Is it over now? Hey, hey is it over now? Rachel looks over to her girls as she sings this next part, smiling and hoping that the words she didn't get to say back was shining in her eyes. I wanna be your last first kiss that you'll ever have
I wanna be your last first kiss Amazing how life turns out the way that it does
We end up hurting the worst, the only ones we really love Rachel turns back to the crowd walking forward her voice getting stronger and more powerful causing goose bumps throughout the crowd. I wanna break every clock
The hands of time could never move again Jesse runs up to Shelby frantic, "I can't find Finn!" We could stay in this moment
Stay in this moment Shelby's eyes widen, "Oh no." She closes her eyes, "Did you try his phone?" For the rest of our lives
Is it over now? Hey, hey is it over now? Jesse nods, "Artie said he had to use the rest room and then he never came back!" I wanna be your last first kiss that you'll ever have
I wanna be your last first kiss Shelby chews on her lower lip, "Shit, shit, shit. Okay don't tell the girls take Sam and Blaine and run check the restrooms you have maybe five minutes before it's time for the group so be back in three so we can have time to figure this out." Jesse nods turning to run but Shelby pulls him back, "Be as discreet as you can." She watches as the boy takes off, she should've known that he was up to something. He's been way too quiet since Schue dropped his bombs two weeks ago. Is it over now? Hey, hey is it over now?
Is it over now? Hey, hey it's not over now I wanna be your last first kiss that you'll ever have
That you'll ever have
I wanna be your last first love
That you'll ever love She turns to watch her daughter on stage praying that this doesn't screw them over. Rachel and her girls oblivious watch each other smiling when Rachel sang that line. Lying here beside me with arms and eyes open wide
I wanna be your last first kiss for all time Rachel's smiles her heart pounding as the applause washes over her. She said once that she needed applause to live but she was wrong. The only thing better than that is her girls watching over her and smiling at her proudly. "Thank you ladies and gentlemen," she smiles her show smile. "Please welcome to the stage New Directions' own Quinn and Santana." She steps back as the audience applauded enthusiastically for her girls. Rachel touches Santana's arm when they walk past, not having enough time to tell them the words she wanted to say. Quinn and Santana take their mark at opposite ends of the stage waiting for the music to start. The pulsing beat of Rihanna's 'Where Have You Been' fill the auditorium and Santana smirks giving the crowd a sultry look and her body moving to the beat. (If you haven't seen the video then I recommend that you do to get an idea of how the dancing should be… you / watch? v = v0WF6Y) [Santana] I've been everywhere, girl
Looking for someone
Someone who can please me
Love me all night long Quinn smirks winking from her spot dancing her way to Santana, taking the next lines. She gives her a come here gesture. Santana smirks dancing her way closer to Quinn. [Quinn]
I've been everywhere, girl
Looking for you babe
Looking for you babe
Searching for you babe Rachel watches mesmerized, she almost forgot how talented her girls were not just in singing but in dancing as well. She scoffs at herself, of course they're talented years of being the top cheerios should have proven that. [Together]
Where have you been
Cause I never see you out
Are you hiding from me, yeah?
Somewhere in the crowd The crowd watches on delighted when the girls dance into the front row energizing them. Meanwhile in the back the three boys run up to Shelby breathless. "I'm sorry Ms. C but we couldn't find him anywhere," Jesse pants. "Shit," Shelby sighs calling for the rest of the Gleeks minus Rachel who was too enthralled with the girls on the stage to notice anything was wrong.
Where have you been,
All my life, all my life
Where have you been, (all my life…Santana)
Where have you been, (all my life…Santana)
Where have you been, (all my life…Santana)
Where have you been, (all my life…Santana) The music bleeds seamlessly into Rihanna's 'I Hate How I love you'. [Santana]
That's how much I love you (yeah…Quinn)
That's how much I need you (yeah, yeah, yeahah…Quinn)
And I can't stand ya
Almost everything you do
Makes me wanna smile
Even I like you for a while (no... oh...Quinn) Quinn looks over to Rachel her hips dancing to the beat hypnotizing Rachel and Santana. [Quinn]
I've been everywhere, girl
Looking for someone
Someone who can please me The music bleeds together leaving the crowd on the edge of their seats. [Santana] But you won't let me
You upset me girl
And then you kiss my lips [Quinn] Love me all night long
I've been everywhere, girl
Looking for you babe
[Santana] All of a sudden I forget (that I was upset…Quinn)
Can't remember what you did
[Quinn] Looking for you babe
Searching for you babe Where have you been
Cause I never see you out
Are you hiding from me, yeah?
Somewhere in the crowd [Together]
Where have you been,
All my life, all my life
Where have you been, (all my life…Santana)
Where have you been, (all my life…Santana)
Where have you been, (all my life…Santana)
Where have you been, (all my life…Santana) [Beat Break] Mike and Brittany dances out into the stage causing the crowd to gasps as the sail through the air. The four people dance together leaving everyone speechless. Hiding in the shadows Sue watches smirking, she's waiting for the right moment to snatch up her two best cheerios but until then she's enjoying the show. [Together]
But I hate it...
You know exactly what to do
So that I can't stay mad at you
For too long that's wrong Also hiding in the shadows a seething William Schuester watches on wondering what he had to do to knock these people out for good. Somewhere on the road Finn sits in his car smirking thinking he just ruined the Gleeks chances, but he won't know for sure until later. [Santana]
But I hate it... Quinn [Where have you been, all my life]
You know exactly how to touch Quinn [Where have you been, all my life] Rachel breath catches in her throat, she's never seen anything as sexy as her girls at this moment. Fuck the rest of sectionals she just wants to take them in a closet right now. She never got to watch a full performance, they wanted it to be a surprise. Oh man she is surprised! So that I don't want to fuss... and fight no more Quinn [Where have you been, all my life]
Said I despise that I adore you Quinn [Where have you been, all my life] [Quinn]
And I hate how much I love you girl (yeah...Mike, Brittany) Santana[You can have me all you want]
I can't stand how much I need you (I need you...Mike, Brittany) Santana [Any way, any day] Rachel dances onto the stage with the other four people, moving with the beat. And I hate how much I love you girl (oooh whoah...Mike, Brittany, Rachel) Santana[To show me where you are tonight]
But I just can't let you go Santana[Where have you been, all my life]
And I hate that I love you so (oooh...Mike, Brittany, Rachel)
Santana[Where have you been, all my life] Santana twirls Rachel around into Quinn's arms. [Santana]
And you completely know the power that you have
The only one that makes me laugh [Quinn]
Said that it's not fair
How you take advantage of the fact She stares into her eyes singing the next line. That I love you beyond the reason why (why...Santana) Quinn looks up to another pair of brown eyes winking and twirling Rachel back to Santana. And it just ain't right
[Santana]
And I hate how much I love you girl
I can't stand how much I need you (yeah...Quinn)
And I hate how much I love you girl
But I just can't let you go
But I hate that I love you so The rest of New Directions come onto the stage trying their best to keep up with the five talented people making the complicated movements seem so easy. [Together]
One of these days maybe your magic won't affect me
And your kiss won't make me weak
But no one in this world knows me the way you know me
So you'll probably always have a spell on me... [Santana]
Yeaahhh... Oohh... [Quinn]
As much I love you (as much as I need you oh...New Directions) Santana[Where have you been, all my life]
As much as I need you (oooh... as so much I love you…New Directions) Quinn looks around confused as she noticed that someone was missing. She looks over to Shelby who just shrugs helplessly. Santana[Where have you been, all my life]
As much I love you (oh...New Directions)
Santana[Where have you been, all my life]
As much as I need you [Together]
And I hate that I love
You soooooooo! [Santana]
And I hate that I love you soooo Quinn[I've been everywhere, girl, Looking for someone] Santana and Rachel catch on to the fact that they're missing someone as well. Rachel swallows nervously thankful that they still have enough members to compete. The rest of New Directions fall back letting the two girls finish out the song. And I hate how much I love you girl
Quinn[Someone who can please me, Love me all night long]
I can't stand how much I need ya (can't stand how much I need you…New Directions)
Quinn[I've been everywhere, girl, I've been everywhere, girl]
And I hate how much I love you girl Quinn smiles lovingly at Santana taking her hand as the music softens fading away. Quinn[I've been everywhere, girl, Looking for you babe]
But I just can't let you go (but I just can't let you go no...New Directions)
Quinn[Searching for you babe] And I hate that I love you so
Quinn[Where have you been, all my life] [Together]
And I hate that I love you so... soo...
Yeah... hey... Oh... Where have you been, all my life The crowd erupts before the last note was finished. Santana squeals hugging Quinn close, feeling their hearts thundering together. They bow a couple of times before separating and running to their marks. The crowd was still on their feet when the last songs opening notes played. The spotlight falls on a smirking Sam who does a little shimmy showing off his boy band moves. [Sam]
whoa oh oh oh oh
whoa oh oh oh oh
I kinda feel like it don't make
like-like-like it don't make
feel like it don't make sense The spotlight fades off of Sam and onto Jesse who smirks out into the crowd. He searches for Blaine singing this part for him. [Jesse]
I'm thinking, baby, you and I are undeniable
But I'm finding out loves unreliable
I'm giving all I got just to make you stay
Or am I just a roadblock in your way? Artie rolls into the spotlight after Jesse dances away. [Artie]
Cause you're a pretty little windstorm out on the boulevard
Something like a Sunset, oh you're a shooting star
And I might drive myself insane
If those lips aren't speakin' my name Puck struts next Sam causing some fangirl like screaming in the front rows. [Puck]
Cause I got some intuition,
or maybe I'm superstitious
But I think you're a pretty sweet pill
that I'm swallowing down
To counter this addiction
you've got me on a mission The two boys show that the five people before aren't the only dancing talent of the group. Shelby chuckles from backstage, dancing along with her kids. Schuester scowls walking up to his replacement, "I wouldn't start celebrating just yet Shelby, because the Warblers were pretty good tonight. Not to mention the fact that little dance Santana and Quinn did, might be considered to provocative." [Sam, Puck]
Tell me darling, can I get a break somehow? Shelby sighs, "Do you have try and ruin my kids' moment? Is it too much to hope that they can have something that doesn't involve you being an ass?" Could I say no? [Artie, Jesse]Chorus
She's got a love like woe Before Schue could reply he felt a heavy hand fall on his shoulder. They both turn to find a scowling David Martinez, "The back area is for students and teachers, since you're neither than I suggest you leave before I have you thrown out." New Directions(whoaa oh oh oh)
Girls got a love like woe Schue glares at the man that stole his job, "Listen Junior just because you have my job at the moment doesn't mean shit." "Actually William it means everything," Sue struts up from beyond them. "Like Menudo said this area is reserved for staff and students so if you don't leave then now then I'm sure the chief, who I have on speed dial, will be thrilled to take my call." New Directions(whoaa oh oh oh) Schue glares at the group before turning to walk away. Holly made sure to run into him as she walked up to her fellow teachers. "So what I miss?" Shelby rolls her eyes turning around to watch her team perform. [Sam]
I kinda feel like it don't make sense
Because you're bringing me in
and now you're kicking me out again Only the girls were surprised that Kurt sang this next part, because this was supposed to be Finn's. Rachel was to engrossed in her girl's performance that a bomb could've gone off and still she wouldn't have noticed anything. [Kurt]
Loved so strong, then you moved on
Now I'm hung up in suspense,
Because you're bringing me in
And then you're kicking me out again Blaine walks up to Jesse hugging him close, smiling his goofy smile. [Blaine]
It's like a hurricane, speed train, she's a moving car
Catch her in the fast lane, oh I gotta know,
Can I keep up with her pace?
Kick it into gear when I see that face [Mike]
You can take up all my time cause you're the only one
That can make a storm cloud break
Pulling up the sun
And I can't get caught in the rain
Can I get your lips to speak my name? [Sam, Puck]
Cause I got some intuition,
or maybe I'm superstitious
But I think you're a pretty sweet pill
that I'm swallowing down
[Artie, Jesse]
To counter this addiction
you've got me on a mission
Tell me darling, can I get a break somehow?
Could I say no? [New Directions]Chorus
She's got a love like woe The three girls walk to the edge of the stage smiling waving their arms in the air. For the first time Brittany feels a part of the group rather than an outsider. [Sugar, Brittany, Lauren](whoaa oh oh oh)
Girls got a love like woe
[Sugar, Brittany, Lauren](whoaa oh oh oh)
I kinda feel like it don't make sense
[Tina]Because you're bringing me in Mike takes Tina in his arms almost forgetting that they weren't alone. and now you're kicking me out again
[Mike]Loved so strong, then you moved on
Now I'm hung up in suspense,
[Mike, Tina]Because you're bringing me in
And then you're kicking me out again Sam smiles at Brittany as if he's seeing her for the first time. Brittany smiles back shyly tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. [Sam]
Cause we only have one life
The timing and the moment,
All seem so right
So would you say you're mine? Holly leans over whispering in Shelby's ear, "They're awesome, in my opinion they should win hands down." Shelby smirks watching her daughters come together in the middle of the stage, "No contest they're the best out there." Holly grins, "I see that hickey you were sporting went away, maybe who ever gave it to you in the first place will give you another." Shelby's face flushes as she tries to cover her fading mark. [Rachel, Quinn, Santana](We'll be just fine)
Would you say you're mine?
[Rachel, Quinn, Santana](We'll be just fine) [New Directions]Chorus
She's got a love like woe
[Kurt](whoaa oh oh oh)
Girls got a love like woe
[Kurt](whoaa oh oh oh) The Gleeks moved to the edge of the stage arms around each other, everyone actually enjoying being together for the first time in over a year. They started remembering when everything was fun before agendas got in the way. [Jesse]I kinda feel like it don't make sense
[Blaine]Because you're bringing me in
[Jesse, Blaine]and now you're kicking me out again
[Rachel]Loved so strong, then you moved on
[Santana]Now I'm hung up in suspense,
[Quinn]Because you're bringing me in
[Rachel, Santana, Quinn]And then you're kicking me out again [New Directions]Chorus
She's got a love like woe
[Girls](whoaa oh oh oh)
Girls got a love like woe
[Boys](whoaa oh oh oh) I kinda feel like it don't make sense
Because you're bringing me in
and now you're kicking me out again
Loved so strong, then you moved on
Now I'm hung up in suspense,
Because you're bringing me in
And then you're kicking me out again The crowd erupted in applause again giving the Gleeks a standing ovation. Mike picked up Tina twirling her around laughing happily. Jesse dipped Blaine kissing him in front of everyone, not caring that he had a whole auditorium watching them. Artie smiled at Brittany but didn't approach her, giving her the space that promised Santana he'd give her. Rachel slips her hands in each of her girls' leading them backstage. "You know Quinn, that comment before I went on stage wasn't very nice," Rachel tells her smirking. Quinn blushes stuttering, "Um well I wanted to get you to relax, but don't feel obligated to say it back if you're not ready." She swings their joined hands smiling cutely, "I can wait." Santana grins cuddling into Quinn's side waiting to see where Rachel was going with this. Rachel nibbles on her lower lip, "No I don't feel obligated to say it back, but I do love you Quinn." The newly blonde girl smile lights up the room, "I love you too, Santana. I'm not sure when or how it happened but I do." Santana eyes become suspiciously wet, "I love you too Rachel. I think that I started falling for you the first day of school in the bathroom." Rachel lets out a relieved laugh, snuggling into her girls, "Quinn, I think I've always been in love with you but I didn't start to realize until I picked you up the second day of school." Shelby clears her throat, "I hate to interrupt girls but I need a group meeting before the winners are announced." Rachel gives her Mom a weak glare before following her to the choir room. Shelby waits until all of her kids are in the room before clapping her hands excitedly, "I am so proud of you guys! After all of the obstacles thrown your way these last two weeks you all did an amazing job." She smiles at her kids brightly, "I know we have some issues to discuss but that's for later now is a time to celebrate. So I just wanted you all to know that before things get too crazy." Santana smiles pulling her diva down on her lap, "Its cool Mom we killed it even though you're all a bunch of losers. I personal think Rachel's performance was the shit and me and Q's set the room on fire." She winks at Sam, "Even Froggy Lips dance made my lady loins happy and I think everyone's figured out by now that they're 100% for the ladies." Quinn smacks her in the back of the head lightly knocking off her hat, "What my girlfriend's trying to say is that everyone did an awesome job and we're proud to be a part of it." Santana gives her a mocking glare while Rachel rubbed the back of her head, "That's what I said Q-ball." Shelby chuckles at her antics, "Remind me never to let Santana give any motivational speeches." Santana rolls her eyes before burying her face in Rachel's neck, "Anyways I wanted to give you a little bit of news before we get on stage." She takes a deep breath knowing that this isn't going to go over very well, "I realize I probably should've told you guys sooner but in my defense I didn't want to put any more pressure on you." Rachel sits up straighter not looking at her girls questioning gaze, "When I first took over the club it was stipulated that if we don't win at sectionals then Mr. Figgins will be forced to disband the group." She sags back in her chair as her kids started speaking all at once. Puck take a page out of Finn's play book by kicking over the closest chair, "That's not fair! We worked so hard these last few months. Hell this past few years and what, it's all for nothing now?" Quinn tilts Rachel's face up, "Did you know about this Rae?" She already knew the answer by her guilty expression, "Is that why you've been off all week?" Santana hugged her tighter, "Didn't you trust us not to tell anyone?" Rachel swallows pulling her girls closer, "I trust you two completely! I just didn't want you guys to worry or let this effect you." Quinn shakes her head sadly, "But it was okay for you to have to worry or have more pressure? This is a relationship Rae you have two other people to lean on. Whatever affects you affects us, I thought you knew that by now." Shelby cuts in, "It was me girls. I asked Rachel not to say anything and that was my mistake, I shouldn't have laid that much pressure on her." She gestures helplessly, "This is the reason why I didn't say anything sooner. So please don't be mad or hurt because she was just doing what I asked her." Rachel reaches out hesitantly cupping bot of their faces, "I'm sorry if you think that by my not saying anything to mean that I don't trust you because nothing could be further from the truth." Santana swallows looking away, "Are you positive?" "One hundred percent San, I love you and trust you. I didn't say anything because Mom asked me not to," she looks up Quinn who hasn't responded. Quinn sighs running a hand through her hair, "I guess I, we can't be upset that you were only doing something that your Mom asked you to do." She finally looks into Rachel's big doe eyes, "No more secrets though, okay?" Rachel looks to her mother silently asking if she can tell them the rest of the story. Shelby bites her lip, "There's a little more but that part only concerns me and Mr. Martinez but Rachel can tell you girls later when you get home." Puck frowns, "What about the rest of us, Ms. C? Don't we deserve to know?" Shelby quirks a perfectly shaped brow, "No Puck, this part isn't meant for gossip so no this doesn't concern you." The Gleeks scowled if this affected their coach and San's cousin then yes it was their concern. But if Ms. C didn't want to tell them then they'll have to find out on their own. Shelby mistakenly took their silence as consent, "Alright kids let's go wait for the results because I know everyone's dying to know right now." Rachel makes no move to follow their friends' content on staying where she is right now. Smirking she gives Santana a look that sent all the moisture in her body down south, "This might be inappropriate considering you two were just upset with me but I feel that must tell you what I thought of your performance." Quinn shivers at the husky tone in her voice arousal shooting down to her crotch, "Oh yeah what's your critique ma'am?" Instead of answering she fisted her hand in Santana's thick raven hair crashing their lips together. Santana yelps startled at her unexpected move but shock gave way to pleasure as their tongues battled for dominance. A low whine sounds from the back of Santana's as she let Rachel take over the kiss. Rachel smirks into the kiss, slowing the almost frantic clashing of teeth and lips. Quinn licked her lips watching her girls' heated embrace, whimpering in need. Her fingers twitch, inching to stake her claim on her both of her girls. Oxygen finally becoming a problem made a very reluctant Rachel end their kiss. Rachel struggles to catch regulate her breathing, moans loud when Quinn pulls her head back attacking her mouth. This time Rachel's the one that whimpers as she allows Quinn's tongue past her lips invading her mouth. Quinn hums tasting Santana's cherry lip gloss mixed with Rachel's own addictive taste. Santana was too impatient to wait her turn grabs Quinn's silky hair pulling painfully until she attaches their lips together. They chuckle into each other's mouths when they hear Rachel's loud groan, feeling put out about the shortened kiss. Rachel rolls her eyes and decides to occupy herself by nibbling on Quinn's neck and brushing her hand on the underside of Santana's breasts. Santana laughter dies in her throat and her nipples instantly harden when she feels Rachel's stealthy little hand find its way under her blouse. Quinn was in a bad way herself when Rachel starts tugging on her earlobe, but she knows that she has to stop soon or else she won't be able to stop herself from throwing Rachel and Santana on the floor and having her wick way with her girls. Santana has to chant in her head, I will not take my girlfriends' virginity on the choir floor, but her unoccupied hand wormed its way under Rachel's sinfully short skirt kneading her quivering thigh. The hand that was gripping Santana's hair worked its way down cupping the bulge in Quinn's pants in an awkward angle. Quinn throws her head back moaning loudly, this isn't helping my resolve! Santana pouts briefly at the loss of Quinn's lips before she attacks the other side of her neck. Quinn's pants turn into breathy moans, each girl becoming wetter at the small noises their girlfriend was making. Somehow she finds herself pushing their heads closer, not understanding when her hands came to be gripping each of her brunettes' hair. Rachel vaguely hears the announcement for all the clubs to come to the stage for the winners to be announced. She mumbles, "We have to go back the stage." Santana grunts, "Don't wanna." As she kisses along Quinn's jaw, "I'm fine where I'm at babe." Quinn hums, "The rest of the club can text us the results later, but now we need to go home before I embarrass myself." Rachel protests weakly, "No we can't, we have to be there. We worked so hard on this performance." Santana lifts her head glaring at her hobbit, "Rachel as much as love you and the sound of your voice, but less talking and more kissing." Quinn smiles opening her eyes, "I love you too Rachel but I second that so we win, yea!" Rachel frowns resting her head on Quinn's soft chest, "Where does it say that it's a majority rule? And I don't like it when you two over rule me; it's not fair when you gang up one me." Santana's glare turns into a devious smirk, "That's one of the perks of dating two girls, I guess." 'Somewhere' echoes through the choir room and Rachel smiles triumphantly, "That's my Mom unless you want to tell her that we were too busy making out to stand with the rest of the club, I suggest we leave." Santana's and Quinn's phone also starts ringing annoyingly causing the petulant HBICs to pout. "Fucking cock blocks! All of them," Santana whines. Rachel rolls her eyes at her childish antics, but realizes that maybe the current position of her hands aren't helping the matter at all. She blushes as she stands on shaking legs removing her hands from her favorite places. Santana mewls pitifully when Rachel backs away making her hand fall as well. Rachel averts her eyes not wanting to see the quiet pitiful pleading in her girls' eyes. She knew full well that she would cave if she saw those adorable pouts. "Come on loves we're going to miss the results," she says with false enthusiasm. Sometimes she really hates being the responsible one, she straights out her suit before turning to the door. The girls sigh stomping childish after their mean girlfriend. Quinn looks down realizing that she has a problem. She glares at her erection since it was a reminder of what she wasn't doing anymore. She shrugs off her suit jacket and covers she stubborn member. Santana notices and starts grinning at her impishly, "Having a problem there Q?" "Not one word San," Quinn grumbles reaching for her hand. They see Carmen running up to them, "Where the hell have you been?" She sees the ruffled hair, groaning, "You know what, never mind I don't want to know. Just hurry the hell up before the parental units ground your hormonal asses again." Santana flips off her big sister, "I'm walking as fast as I can asshole. Can't you see that I'm wearing six inch heels?" Carmen laughs, "Whatever bitch, I just saw you dancing in those heels so stop making lame excuses and go." Quinn sticks her tongue out but sensing an argument about to erupt, she starts pulling her Latina faster toward the stage. Santana mutters under her breath, complaining in Spanish about her cock blocking family. Rachel stands waiting at the stage door struggling not to smile at her whiny girlfriend. Quinn glares, "Not one word Rae." She pushes open the door, holding it open for her girls and completely ignoring Rachel's giggling and Santana's whining. Tina sees the girls breathing a sigh of relief, "It's about time, we were about to send a search party out for you three." Rachel blushes as she stands next her mother, "Um, no need for all that Tina. We were, uh discussing the duet and lost track of time." Puck leers, "Sure diva 'talking'? Is that what the kids are calling it these days?" Santana gives him her best death glare as she comes to stand next to Rachel, "Shut it Puckerman!" Puck losing his leer but still has lecherous thoughts racing in his head about how their 'talk' really went. Rachel rolls her eyes refusing to meet her Mom's amused face and leans to rest her head on Santana's shoulder, sliding her hand into the Latina's. Quinn feels the nerves start to kick in, tights her hold on Santana's hand. The watch as Rod Remington slithers onto the stage neither girl bother to listen to his idiotic speech. A heckler in the crowd agree with their thoughts call out for him to announce the winner already. Rod clears his throat obviously embarrassed, "Alright since some people seem to be impatient and rude we'll move along! In third place goes to our new comers, The Unitards!" They watch as a suspiciously similar Harmony bounce up to take the trophy, "Thank you! Thank you so much!" she turns to Rachel smiling an eerie cheerful smile, "Just think guys we're this good now and only sophomores! So count yourselves lucky because next year will be a blood bath!" Kurt mouth drops open, "Oh my god! The Gerber baby just threw down the rhinestone microphone!" Rod chuckles, "We love to see that kind of spirit! Good luck next year kids." He smiles his fake cheesy smile and faces the crowd, "Now the moment everyone's been waiting for, the winner of the 2012 sectionals is…" he pauses for dramatic effect. Rachel groans, "Just announce it already!" Shelby smacks the back of her lightly but chuckles with the rest of the crowd. Rod glares at her but looks away frightened when twin death glares are sent his way. When the hell did high school girl become so scary? Never mind girls are always frightening, "Okay ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, who's it going to be The Warblers or New Directions as this year's winners. The 2012 sectionals winning show choir is…" he looks down at his cue card, "McKinney Highs' own New Directions!" Shelby blinks somewhat dazed before she registered Tina and Mike pulling her up with them to receive the trophy. She looks around the auditorium trying to find the person in the crowd that made her heart ache in a good way. She finally spots them in the back of the stage and they blow her a kiss. Rachel squeals jumping into Santana's arms and laughs out joyously as she spins them around. Quinn shuffles impatiently waiting for them to stop spinning before she gives them a fierce bear hug. Santana's family runs onto the stage prying the trio apart they take turns hugging and congratulating the girls. Puck looks over to his Lesbros smiling like a happy giddy fool, noticing how genuinely happy they are. He looks around to the rest of his family. Although he reluctantly he includes McCripple Pants in that category, and vows to make sure that they stay these happy. No matter who's ass he has to kick he's gonna make sure that they keep the happiness they deserve. A/N:
