i really hate the name for this episode but whatever

trigger warning: school shooting

"So, you really believe the apocalypse is coming?" I asked Brittany as we walked down the hall holding hands.

"Yeah. It's our last days on earth, Y/n. You don't believe it?" She looked at me smiling and I shook my head. "Nope. Nothing is coming for us, Britt. You're safe."

"Try saying that when a meteor crushes us." Brittany let go of my hand walking down the hall backwards. "Where are you going?" I asked.

"Bathroom. I won't be long." She ran down the hall and I walked into the choir room taking my seat.

"Hey." I heard Artie say and we began having a conversation. After a while Coach Beiste and Mr Shue came in.

"Okay, let's get started." Mr Schuester clapped but there was a louder sound behind it. Artie and I looked over at each other worried and the sound happened again. It was a gunshot followed by screams.

"Spread out and hide. Spread out and hide." Mr Schuester ran to the doors shutting them.

It felt like my heart was beating out my chest.

I went by the wall carrying Artie out of his chair and laying him down. I sat next to him, Blaine, and Sam.

"Are we even sure those where gunshots-?" Blaine asked but Mr Schuester stopped him. "Shh."

After a while, Mr Schuester stood up. "Okay, guys, start texting, let everyone know what's happening but don't tell them we're in here."

The first person I texted was Santana. Then Finn, and Kurt, and then Quinn. I told them that I loved them and what was going on. Most answered me back but Santana didn't. I guessed she was busy.

All that I was thinking about was me dying. Dying without seeing Santana, Finn, or Kurt. Dying in this room, or worse, losing a friend.

I stopped and I looked around the room."Where's Brittany?" I whispered and Sam looked at me concerned. "Not in here."

I remembered her coming in. Why isn't she here? "A-are you sure?" I felt my voice break and he nodded looking down. "Yeah."

I walked up to Mr Schuester quietly and he held me back from my shoulders. "You have to go back-"

"Brittany's in the bathroom and her phone's in here. Is there some way we can help her-"

"Y/n. Calm down. Go sit back down. I promise you that Brittany will be fine. Just sit back down." He said softly and I nodded crying. "Okay."

I sat down next to Blaine who put his arm around me. "She's okay." He said as cried into his shoulder.

"No." Sam stood up and I looked up. "Sam, no."

"No, i don't care." Sam walked up to Mr Schuester. "Brittany's in the bathroom and I have to go get here. I don't care."

"Sam, no. Go sit back down." Mr Shue demanded and Sam kept pushing through him. "No, no, she's stuck. We need to help her."

"Sam!" Beiste and Mr Shue grabbed Sam covering his mouth as he yelled. I covered my ears and turned away not wanting to see Sam that way.

After a while, we heard knocks on the door. Coach Beiste opened it and Mr Schuester walked in with a group of kids. Brittany was there and I ran to her. We hugged tightly like it was the last days we'd see each other.

I think that was the most important hug of my life.

"I love you." I whispered leaning on her shoulder and I felt her sniffle. "I love you too."

"Clear!" We heard from the hallways and we all let out a breath of relief. I walked over to hug Artie. "I love you." I heard him say and I hugged him tighter. "Me too."

In that moment, it occurred to me how important everyone is. How I couldn't live without Artie or Tina even if we didn't feel that close. They're big parts of my life even if I don't notice it.

I hugged Marley and Unique next. It broke my heard to see them cry.

"Group hug, guys." Mr Schuester said and we came in for a guys. "I love all of you." Mr Schuester said and Beiste nodded. "You guys are awesome."
