Different worlds

Chapter 29

The day after Quinn and Rachel's confrontation with Mr. Schue and Principal Figgins, found Quinn on the softball diamond with the rest of her teammates practicing, like every other Thursday. However, during practice the bleachers that are usually empty started to fill up by the Glee Club. The blonde surprised by seeing her friends watching her train just tried to ignore them and focus on her practice session, this weekend she was able to play five innings, so she wanted to show her coach she was up for the new development that Claire, her Physiotherapist recommended.

As the blonde was walking off the diamond, Tasmin ran up to her, "What's with your cheer squad over there? Shouldn't they be off singing?"

Quinn just shrugged, "Yeah, they should... I have no idea why they came and watched me."

The blonde grabbed her things and said a goodbye to her softball friends and then walked over to the bleachers to say hello to her girlfriend and her Glee friends. As Quinn walked over to the group, Rachel jumped up and walked towards the blonde.

"Hey, baby... You looked good out there," Rachel said as she leaned up and gave her girlfriend a chaste kiss on the lips. As the couple separated, Quinn smiled and looked down at her girlfriend, "Thanks... But what's with the audience?"

The brunette shrugged, "I'm not sure... Mr. Schue came into the choir room late... Like always... And he just said that we should come watch you and show you our support."

Quinn just looked confused. "I think he's trying to make it up to you," Rachel voiced.

The softball player nodded, then moved her hand down to embrace it with her girlfriends and then walked over to the rest of her friends. Saying her hellos when she arrived.

"Okay, guys... Can I speak to you all before I dismiss you?" Mr. Schue voiced. The Glee Club members turned out of their conversations with their friends and gave the Glee teacher their full attention.

"Well, firstly... The main reason I chose for us to not have Glee practice today and come watch Quinn practice is because a lot went down yesterday and I didn't want to say this without Quinn being with us... So I thought that we could all come support you," Mr. Schue said. Quinn just nodded her head as she was sitting down next to her girlfriend.

"Yesterday I took things out of hand... My judgments got the best of me and I didn't handle the situation properly, I've personally apologized to both Quinn and Rachel but you all deserve an apology... I'm sorry for how I reacted yesterday and I'm sorry if I made any of you feel uncomfortable..." Mr. Schue looked to Kurt. "I'm very sorry for what happened yesterday... And I'm sorry if I ever made you feel like you couldn't be yourself and that you had to hide who you were." Kurt nodded at his teacher and then Mr. Schue looked around at all his students. "You all should be proud of what you did yesterday in the choir room, even though I didn't understand where you were coming from... Or more that I didn't want to listen to you guys, you all held your ground and supported each other..." There were nods throughout the group. "I'm not sure if Quinn or Rachel has informed you on what happened in Principal Figgins office, but Quinn, Rachel, their parents, myself and Principal Figgins all spoke about the lack of education in this school when it comes to LGBT people, so we spoke about some ideas to help not just other students but also the teachers," the students nodded, because, yes... Quinn and Rachel already informed them all on what happened. "We have decided to hold an acceptance week... Which Principal Figgins has already organized for next week..." Mr. Schue then went into his bag and grabbed out sheets of paper, going around the bleacher benches and handed them out to his students while he spoke. "Ms. Pillsbury has organized what each day will be covering... Monday is no bullying day... Tuesday is family issues day... Wednesday is LGBT day... Thursday is self- image day... And Friday is you're not alone day..." The Glee students looked through the papers that they were given. "This is a rough copy of the itinerary of the events that have already been put in place. Ms. Pillsbury and Principal Figgins have already gotten some speakers to come in to talk to all the teachers and students."
