Abusive

Working

A week later

I'm sitting besides the piano in the school's auditorium. I'm playing a few notes thinking. I miss singing, I really do but I'm beyond insecure about all of it. A few weeks ago I found a song, a very good one. And I really wanted to sing it.

"Rachel, what are you doing here?" Someone asked and I look just to see Quinn standing there.

"Hey Q, I was just thinking about a song that I heard." I said and she sits next to me on the piano's bench.

"Which song?" She asked and I show her the music sheet.

"Wow, that's a beautiful song Rach." She said and I nodded.

"I know that." I said.

"Are you planning to sing it in glee club?" She asked and I shrugged.

"I don't know honestly, I miss singing but I don't feel I'm good enough." I said.

"Try, start from the chorus. If you need help with some vocal, that I doubt you need, I'll help you." Quinn said and I started to play the piano notes and sing along. When I finished the chorus, Quinn looked at me with a smile. This is the first time in years that I sing like this. I barely sung at Sectionals .

"Rachel!!! And you were saying that you couldn't sing anymore! This was the prettiest thing I ever heard in my entire life!" Quinn said and I chuckled. "You HAVE to sing that at glee club!"

"Never in a million years." I said.

"How about we work on this song, cause it's really beautiful, then when you feel ready, you sing in front of the glee club. Rach, you have this amazing voice. The prettiest voice I ever heard, you can't waste this talent!" Quinn said and I sighed and I opened my mouth to complain but she interrupted me. "I don't wanna hear it, we are going to do this. Now, I wanna hear the whole song." She said making me laugh.

"Fine." I started and started playing the notes on the piano and started to sing from the beginning of the song.

"See?! That was what I was talking about! You have this amazing voice that I like to call a gift, you can't waste it Rachel." She said and I laughed.

"Okay, I'm in." I said and she squealed "But you have to promise one thing."

"Anything." She said.

"No one can know about this. I don't want to give anyone fake hopes of me singing." I said and Quinn smiled.

"Fine then. I promise." She said.

"Seriously Quinn, not Finn, not Sam, not Puck, no one in that club. I you say that you're helping me rehearsing a song, probably they will want to hear it and I'm not ready to sing in front if a crowd yet." I said and she nodded.

"Relax Berry, trust me. It's gonna be okay and we will have the best version of this song." She said and I smiled. I hope she is right.
