I just want you (Faberry)

Chapter 16

Quinn's POV
A week has passed since Rachel Berry asked me out. To be fair, I have been avoiding her. I can't see her, otherwise I'd just want to kiss her, cry or be a loser. I can't do that, can I?
I still get whispers in the corridors when I walk by, but mostly it's blown over. Most people thought it was a joke, and that I'm not actually gay. Even Meghan hasn't told anyone, but I haven't seen her around school much.
"Quinn! We haven't seen you in AGES!" Mr Schue spotted me in the corridor, interrupting me.
"Oh hi, Mr Schuester."
"We need you to come to Glee today at lunch. Nationals is coming up and- wait just come to Glee and i'll explain everything"
"I'll be there" I say, nervously.
"Good to hear it. See you then" Mr Schue nods.
I'm dreading lunch!

Rachel's POV
Im walking into Glee when I see Mr Schuester and Quinn Fabray looking at sheet music.
"Hi, what are you guys doing?" I say, looking down. I couldn't look at Quinn, it's humiliating!
"Looking through sheet music" she says breezily, "You and I are doing a duet at nationals."
"Mr Schue, are we?"
"Yes, Rachel, you are in fact."
"Mr Schue, can we do Smooth Criminal?" Quinn says
"Ooh, I like that!" I clap my hands together.
"Of course! That sounds great. Your powerful voices would kill it! Ok, i'm expecting you to learn your parts by tomorrow evening" he hands us the sheet paper.
"Ok!" we say, in unison.
"I'd better go. Emma and I are supposed to be eating lunch together. Bye!"
"Bye"
As soon as Mr Schue leaves, I say,
"I'd better go too, Quinn" I say, giving her a cold look, "Because you think we have nothing together, and you're being a coward"
"Rachel. Zip it."
"Make me!"
"It's tempting. But I can't, Rachel!"

Quinn's POV
"It's tempting. But I can't, Rachel" I protest.
She did look very hot today. I did have the urge to, you know, be with her. What did Finn used to do? Ohhh, the mail. I start picturing the scene Finn always described to me. It didn't really work.
"Rachel I better go before I do something I regret. Bye."
"Bye," she says, solemnly.

Third Character View (a.k.a, someone in audience)
Quinn and Rachel were about to perform. It's the evening after they last encountered. Will Schuester was sitting at his seat in the audience, notebook ready at hand.
"When you are ready, girls" he calls
The music starts, the stage lights up.
The whole performance felt like a battle of annoyance, but also connection, spicy, I'd describe it.

Quinn's POV
Oh no, it's that feeling again, the urge to kiss her. She looks hot. Rachel, stop it! Keep singing Quinn, it's your part. Go.
The dancers swirl around us, creating the tension and atmosphere. All I wanted to do was dance with her.

Rachel's POV
Quinn looks flustered. She looks exactly like that boy at my middle school when he kissed me out of nowhere. As we sing, we are almost shouting and I can feel the passion all around us. Energy and sparks fly between us, like nobody is there.

"You've been struck by, a smooth criminal" We sing, in unison, linking together, back to back. I feel her on me.

Quinn's POV
It's uncontrollable, this feeling. I just have to do it. Go. I spin her around, grab her hand and sprint backstage. I push her against the wall and give her the most passionate kiss I could ever muster together.
