Rachelle's pov
All the air was sucked out of my lungs, I couldn't breathe or think, and for once I was speechless. All I could focus on was Finn kneeling down on one knee, a gorgeous ring being held in front of me, and Finn asking me to marry him. When really, I was supposed to be focusing on the answer I should give him. He had a nervous and loving look in his eyes. I couldn't stand it. Then all my dreams came rushing in, like living in New York, attend NYA, perform on Broad way, and be a star. My heart wanted to say yes but my head said not now, knowing my dreams will be crushed marrying at 17
"Uhm, Rachelle?" Finn muttered.
It took me a moment to process what was happening, then he took my hand and asked me again, but this time he looked more nervous.
"uh, uhmm Finn, I-I- Lo-love you sooo, so much. Actually, ever since I laid my eyes on you. I knew you were the one. You're my everything. But, we're still so young, and we have our whole lives ahead of us. So my answer for now is... maybe.
Finn had a sad and hopeful look on his face.
"s'okay Rachelle, I love you more than anything and I would never rush you into things like this… So I'll wait for you until you're ready, alright?"
Finn's pov
As soon as I said those words, I saw tears streaming down Rachelle's face. I quickly wiped them away and gave her a loving kiss. I turn to her ear and whispered
"It will be okay, I'll always wait"
Quinn's pov
After changing out of my swim suit and into my white sundress I was on my way to my car and caught a glimpse of a blonde haired boy.
Sam. I never stopped loving him. Cheating on him with Finn was the worst mistake I've ever made, next to giving up Beth of course. Sam was the only person who never judged me by my past, and he actually made me a better person.
But now he's trying to win Mercedes heart. And since she's such a diva and is with Shane, she has to play hard to get. I wish I was her.
Oh no. I see Sam turn around and look directly towards me. Should I walk over there and start a conversation? Okay Quinn, chin up, head high, shoulders back, relax, and smile.
Sam's pov
"Shit! I forgot my gym clothes!" I cursed
As I turn around to get them, I catch myself staring at Quinn. God, she's beautiful. Wait no, I like Mercedes! I can't call other girls beautiful when I love Mercedes. Before I knew it, Quinn was walking towards me.
"Hi Sam."
God, those eyes.
"Uh, Hi" Then I realize I was mesmerized by her big emerald eyes, remembering the time when she wiped the slushie off my face.
"Sam? Sam, you there?" She said worriedly.
"Lor manari" I whispered in a husky voice
"What…?" She said quietly looking down at her feet.
"Oh shit… did I just say that?"
"Say what?"
"Oh, nothing. Gotta go bye" I peeped out. I quickly flashed her a smile and turn to leave for my car. Once I got in I mentally kicked myself. Not just because I said you have beautiful eyes in Na'vi to her, but also because I left my gym clothes in my locker.
*~the next day~*
Quinn's pov
I was the first one to arrive Glee club so I just sat in my regular spot right in the back. While I waited for the others, I played with the worn out cross necklace my parents game me and wondered what happened to Sam the other day in the parking lot. Why did he run off like that? And did I hear what I thought he said? Was he avoiding me?
Just then Sam arrived with Rory and Mercedes. He wasn't making any eye contact with me. He was avoiding me.
Finn's pov
As I take my seat next to Rachelle in glee club, Mr. Schue and Ms. Pillsbury arrive hand in hand with a huge smile on their faces.
Then I see him write "BAHAMAS" on the white board in big bold letters.
Bahamas?
"Is that where ladies are turned in to hippopotamuses? I wanna go there" Brittany, comments.
We all gave her a weird look, then Mr. Schue chuckles.
"Uhm, actually no Brittany" he said laughing
"So, anyways. As you guys know, we are getting married and we've been thinking where our wedding should take place"
We nodded
"And we decided to get married in the Bahamas!" Ms. Pillsbury chirped.
"Oh JUST LOVELY!" Kurt exclaimed.
"Aaaaand, we're not finished yet….."
People started shifting in their seats excited to hear what Mr. Schue had to say.
"We want you guys, the new directions, to perform at our wedding!"
Now everybody was cheering and hollering. The Bahamas was gonna be great!
"Beach babes?" puck drooled. Then I hear a smack on pucks head coming from Lauren.
"But how are we gonna pay for this?" Sam asked a little bit confused.
"We found a good deal on the plane tickets and there's a sale for hotel rooms. So it's all on me and soon to be Mrs. Schue" He said winking at Ms. Pillsbury.
"HELL YEEEAAAH! WE'S BE GOIN' TO THE BAHAMAS, I'm totally gettin' my tan on." Santana exclaimed
"Okay guys, now choose a person you want to be sitting with on the plane so there's no fighting and we need a seating plan for my family and Ms. Pillsbury's. So hurry it up"
Rachelle's pov
After I heard that we were going to the Bahamas I was so excited! I couldn't wait to perform at Mr. Schue's wedding and make perfect song selections for the wedding.
Then Finn turned to me and asked me if I wanted to sit with him on the plane.
"of course"
Then Finn gives me a smile. URGHHH, I just want to say yes already! But I can't marry him! At least not now. I flash him a smile back and try to think of something else to keep my mind off that subject.
Sam's pov
I've been thinking about Quinn a lot lately and I have to stop….. I can't afford on getting hurt again. So I just decided to avoid her. I know, it's a really bad plan but I can't let my guard down. AND I LIKE MERCEDES…. I think.
After Mr. Schue told us that our flight to the Bahamas was on the day spring break started, Glee club ended with laughter and joy.
When I get to my locker I make sure I had everything I needed. And as I close my locker I see Quinn standing right in front of me.
Oh no. Nice trying to avoid her. Don't look into her eyes I warn myself.
"Hi Sam"
"Uhmm, hey Quinn" I said while trying to avoided eye contact.
"Sam, about yesterday, why did you run out on me like that? Did I do something wrong?" She blurted out before I could say anything else.
"Uhm, I was just….. Running late"
"Ooh… Sam I know things ended rough between us, but can we at least stay friends?"
"Of course Quinn, aren't we already?"
She smiled and then hugged me. I instantly got butterflies, and thought of her breasts pressed up against my chest. DAMN MY TEENAGE BOY HORMONES.
When she pulled back, I instantly missed her touch and wanted her back in my arms. C'mon Sam! Pull it together, this cannot happen.
Quinn's pov
While talking to him I noticed he kept looking at his shoes so I just gave him a hug to make him pay attention. I missed him. His arms wrapped around my waist, really feeling safe, it felt so right when I was with him. I pulled back knowing that we couldn't be anything else but friends.
After such a long awkward silence, I broke it off.
"So since we haven't talked that much ever since you came back, how about we catch up on the plane ride? I asked nervously biting my lip for his response.
"Sure Q, I would love to" He said smiling.
I got butterflies when he called me by my old nickname he gave me when we were still dating, but those times are sadly over. C'mon Quinn, Pull it together!
We said our goodbyes, and walked away from each other. I walked to my car with a smile on my face happy that Sam and I are talking again, and excited to be going to the Bahamas!
