Finn and Rachel come close to ruining their lives until Quinn saves the day. Unfortunately it’s at the cost of her almost losing her own life
( Read more... )
It's funny how one text message- one text message from Rachel Berry, of all people- can change your life. One minute Quinn was pressing 'send', and the next, the entire world was crashing down around her.
It's not an easy surgery. It's a long, tense process, and there are moments where the surgeons are sure they're going to lose her. It takes hours, but finally, they've stabilized her and the surgery is over. Mrs. Fabray is in the room with her as soon as it's over, even though Quinn's still still asleep and the doctors aren't sure how long it's going to take for her to wake up.
Her mother comes out into the waiting room, looking around at the sleepy, frazzled wedding party and telling them they can go home and get some sleep. Some of them do, but the ones who stay are brought cups of coffee and warned that they could be in for a long wait.
An entire night's wait, as it turns out. But, mercifully, some time the next morning, Quinn's eyes flutter open. She takes the room in. What? What the hell is she doing here, and why does her
( ... )
When Mrs. Fabray eventually delivers the good news that Quinn made it through the surgery, Sam breathes a sigh of relief and embraces Puck, equally as worried as he was since they did have a baby together. Those who end up staying include Finn and Rachel, who he can tell feel responsible for what happened to Quinn so it doesn’t surprise Sam when they refuse to go home

Quinn is laying on her side in the hospital bed when he enters the room, twisting the blanket in her hands nervously. There is a white bandage around her head, stained red in some places. She's got a cast on her arm, and she's bruised all over the place. But she's alive. And as soon as she hears the door open, she turns over gingerly and then sits up. Despite how beat up and tear stained she's looking, there's still a big smile of relief on her face at the sight of him.
"Sam! Oh my God! I'm so sorry, I don't know why they didn't let you in here the whole time..."
She holds out her good hand to him. "I'm so glad you're here now. Does everyone else know I'm okay?"
Her smile is infectious and he can’t help but return it, even though inside he’s already feeling guilty about agreeing to pretending they’re still dating. It feels wrong lying to her, but if telling the truth might cause her more trauma, what she doesn’t know won’t hurt her.
“Hey, you...” Sam comes over to stand by her bed. “Don’t apologize. It’s not your fault...” He looks down at her offered hand and wraps both of his around it, the same way he would back when they were dating. “Everyone knows. You’ve got some visitors outside but you can always see them tomorrow if you’re too tired...” He doesn’t realize he’s crying until he feels a tear roll down his cheek. It’s not because he’s sad though, he’s just so relieved that she survived the accident. “I was so scared...” He’s not pretending right now, saying what he’d think he’d say if they were still dating. He was genuinely terrified Quinn wasn’t going to make it. “Please don’t ever end up in hospital again unless you’re having a baby.”
