Chapter 3- Fire And Rain

(SIDE NOTE: THE SEASON 4 NEWBIES ARE NOT THERE. EVERYONE FROM SEASON 3 IS, EXCEPT RORY AND JOE)

The next day...
Santana's POV:

I walked into glee club to find that I was the first one there. Kurt said that he was coming a little late, and that he may not be here for some performances or speeches about Finn. I am so glad that he has Blaine though. I'm glad that Blaine is the type of boyfriend that takes days off of his own practice and school just to spend time with Kurt. That's the kind of love that everyone needs. As I'm sitting alone in Glee Club with my thoughts, I look at the whiteboard, and the name on it. 'Finn'. That name will forever want to bring me to tears. He shouldn't have died. He had so much to live for. To fight for. His future with Rachel, his future kids, his future in general. That all got taken away because of a car crash. It's crazy to think that his future got taken away in a split second because someone wasn't smart enough to look at the road. It sucks for me, and everyone else that was close to him, it really does. But it must really suck for the people who didn't give a rats ass to visit him or Rachel in the hospital. I mean, they didn't visit either of them once. And now one of them is dead. You just never know if Finn would've fought a little harder with more support. You never know if things could've ended differently if more people had seen him, told him to fight. But now? No one can do crap about it. Because he died.

"Hey Santana" I hear someone say. I look up to see Brittany standing in the doorway

"Hey Britt. I didn't know you'd come to Glee Club so early. You usually show up with Quinn and Puck" I say with a tiny, tiny smile on my face

"Yeah, but I decided to come early since I couldn't see you in the Hall. I kinda figured that you'd be in here, alone with your thoughts. And sometimes  being alone with your thoughts does more harm than anything" she says

"You really are a genius, Britt" I say

"Yeah,I know I am. I mean, how else would I be able to speak to Lord Tubbington?" She says, and I giggle a little

"Thanks for making me laugh Britt. It's the first time in a long time that I've laughed, so thank you." I Say, and she smiles at me. At that moment, everyone from glee club came in. Kurt, Puck, Quinn, Sam, Artie, Tina, Mike, everyone. I saw Kurt and Blaine holding hands and sit next to each other, and Kurt put his head on Blaine's shoulder. It was nice to think that Kurt had someone other than Rachel and I to go through this with.

"Okay everyone. Sam and Artie told me that they wanted to sing a song for Finn In the auditorium. So, let's go" He says, and we all get up, and head to the auditorium. As we're walking, I see Kurt walk the opposite direction after telling Blaine something. I slow down a bit to where I can talk to Blaine, and I do

"Hey Blaine, where's Kurt going?" I ask, and he looks at me

"Oh, he's just going to the choir room. Says that he couldn't take seeing a performance yet today. He's still shaken up about it, and I don't blame him" he says

"Yeah. I don't blame him either" I say, and speed up my walking so that I don't have to talk to Blaine anymore. We get to the auditorium, and Sam grabs a guitar. We all sit around him, and just stare at the floor. We didn't know what else to do, or say. All we could do was listen to the music being played.

[Artie:]
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Suzanne, the plans they made put an end to you

[Sam:]
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to

[Artie and Sam with New Directions:]
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

[Sam:]
Won't you look down upon me Jesus
You got to help me make a stand
You just got to see me through another day

[Artie and Sam:]
My body's achin' and my time is at hand
And I won't make it any other way

[Artie and Sam with New Directions:]
Oh I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again.

[Artie:]
Been walkin' my mind to an easy time
My back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows
It'll turn your head around

[Sam:]
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line
To talk about things to come

[Artie and Sam:]
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

[Artie and Sam with New Directions:]
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend

[Artie and Sam:]
But I always thought that I'd see you, baby, one more time again now

[New Directions:]
One more time, one more time

[Artie (New Directions):]
Thought I'd see you one more time again (again)

[Sam:]
There's just a few things comin' my way this time around now

[Artie and Sam:]
But I always thought that I'd see you again

I couldn't stay there in silence anymore. I just got up and walked out of the auditorium, to go see someone who I think I could relate to.

In The Choir Room...

I walk in to see Kurt looking at his phone

"Looking at old pictures?" I ask him

"Yeah. Looking at the ones from sophomore year. When the club just started. Tina, Artie, Mercedes, Rachel, Finn, and I were the original five. I remember that we were so worried that we wouldn't have enough people to compete, seeing that we needed at least 12. But we made it work. And here we are now. The original five don't even talk to each other anymore, and ones dead. How am I supposed to feel about that?" He asks me, and I don't really know what to say

"I don't know how you're supposed to feel, Kurt. It's your feelings. But, I know that Finn wouldn't want you away from everyone that he called Family. He would want everyone to be together, celebrating him, and his legacy here in Glee Club, and at McKinley High in general. You know that" I say, and he nods

"It's just so hard. Everyone is literally balling their eyes out, and Rachel's not here, and Mr. Shue hasn't even cried once. I mean, so many emotions are everywhere. I think Finn would understand how messed up this family is, and understand that we all grieve in different ways." He says, and I sigh

"But aren't differences what make Glee Club, glee club? We are all different. But we are still each other's family. And family sticks with family when times are rough." I Say,and he shuts his phone off

"Your right. I'm sorry, Santana. He was my brother. I don't know how I could come back from losing him" he says, and my heart aches for him

"Don't worry. I have faith that you will" I say, and just as Kurt and I finish talking, the rest of the glee club comes in. Once everyone takes a seat, Quinn stands up

"I wanted to sing a song before I change my mind. Now, Finn was my first boyfriend. And, my first love. Our relationship may have been a little rocky, both times, but I will always love that big goofball. No matter what kind of mood I was in, he was always there to brighten my day. And, I never got to thank him for that" she says. "I wish that my last conversation with Finn was memorable, but it wasn't. It was him breaking up with me. We didn't speak much, or, really at all after that. I just wish that things ended on a better note" she says, and wipes a tear. She nods at the band, and they start playing a guitar medley.

All the time I have laid in your light
When your love kept me safe through the night
All the time I was sure you were mine
And before time demands our goodbye
Will you sing me a last lullaby?

I've only just found you, so I, I don't wanna lose you.
But our time has run out and there's nothing I can do.
But why should it end abruptly?
Just hold me tight, one more night
Baby I'll be running and running and running 'til I'm far away
Just keep telling me, telling me, telling me it'll be okay

All the time I have laid in your light
When your love kept me safe through the night
All the time I was sure you were mine
And before time demands our goodbye
Will you sing me a last lullaby?

Sing it to me softly, sing it loud where the pain is still lingering
There's hearts that are already broken; they just bleed
I guess I'll never understand the situation at hand
You're already making plans, but I can't help it
I know I'll be wondering, wondering, wondering if we're okay
Just keep telling me, telling me, telling me to let it slip away

All the time I have laid in your light
When your love kept me safe through the night
All the time I was sure you were mine
And before time demands our goodbye
Will you sing me a last lullaby?

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

All the times I have laid in your light
When your love kept me safe through the night
All the time I was sure you were mine
And before time demands our goodbye
Will you sing me a last lullaby?

Ohh

Can you sing me a last lullaby?
Can you sing me a last lullaby?

"I just had to get that off my chest" she says with tears streaming down her face, and Puck stands up and brings her over to a chair.

"Well, if anyone wants to continue, you can. By all means. If you wanna make a speech, that's fine as well. If you wanna do both, go right ahead. This is whatever you guys want to do to remember Finn." Mr. Shue says, and we all just sit there, in silence

At Rachel's house...
Rachel's POV:

I was sitting on my floor, leaning against my couch,  holding one of Finn's shirts that he had left at my house. I had been holding it for at least an hour. Just smelling the shirt, to remember what he smelt like. I hugged it and everything. And I had been wearing a sweatshirt that he had left here, and it still smelt like him too. My dads have tried to talk to me about going to school, but I'm just not ready yet. I still miss him. I've been crying hysterically for the past two days. How do they expect me to just get over this? I'm perfectly fine from the car accident, and he's dead. And I think that it hurts me more that he was awake before he coded. If I got there in time, I would've seen him when he was awake. But no. I couldn't get there in time. And that hurts more than anything. He may not know it ever, but I heard his last words to me. I heard his last words in general. They were 'I love you Rachel'. When we woke up at the hospital, they said that he wanted to see me. That he requested to see me. I was the first person that came to his mind. And it felt great. But I don't count 'where's rachel' as his last words. Not being confused, or a question. A statement, and him being completely aware of the situation. Before he was brain dead for months. His last words were 'I Love You Rachel', and I will never forget that. As I was holding his shirt and wearing his sweatshirt, a song came on. And for the first time since our car accident, I felt like singing.

I still remember the look on your face
Lit through the darkness at 1:58
The words that you whispered
For just us to know
You told me you loved me
So why did you go away?
Away

I do recall now the smell of the rain
Fresh on the pavement
I ran off the plane
That July 9th
The beat of your heart
It jumps through your shirt
I can still feel your arms

But now I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is
I don't know how to be something you miss
I never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips

I do remember the swing of your step
The life of the party, you're showing off again
And I roll my eyes and then
You pull me in
I'm not much for dancing
But for you I did

Because I love your handshake, meeting my father
I love how you walk with your hands in your pockets
How you kissed me when I was in the middle of saying something
There's not a day I don't miss those rude interruptions

And I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips

So I'll watch your life in pictures like I used to watch you sleep
And I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe
And I keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are
Hope it's nice where you are

And I hope the sun shines
And it's a beautiful day
And something reminds you
You wish you had stayed
You can plan for a change in weather and time
But I never planned on you changing your mind

So I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips

Just like our last kiss
Forever the name on my lips
Forever the name on my lips

Just like our last...

At the end of the song, I was crying. Balling my eyes out. But it felt good. I may have been crying for two or three days straight, but this one felt like I had gotten most of my tears out. I still felt like there were more tears to come. But for now? I was all out of tears.
