A/N: I own nada :) This prompt fill is going to be slightly different. I'm currently getting close to the Jr. Prom episode of Glee, and I need some Jesse in my life right now. 'Cause as much as I love Finchel; St. Berry is where my heart lives 3

PROMPT FILL: WRITE A STORY THAT BEGINS WITH THE LINE "SHE WANTED ME TO BREAK IT"

She wanted me to break it. She practically begged me to break her heart. Between her chocolate brown eyes, and pleading looks in the auditorium. It was like she was screaming it to me, and if I looked into her eyes deep enough, or hugged her close enough, I could hear her thoughts. I knew so much about her, yet still so little. I had no idea what she had been doing for the past year. I didn't know if she was with Finn, or Puck, or some other guy who was luckier and smarter than me. Her eyes still managed to burn into my soul with even the slightest glance.

"Jesse, what are you doing back here? Why aren't you in LA?" Rachel looked at me with a mix of confusion and happiness on her face.

"I missed you. Last year has been weighing on my conscious since the moment I cracked that egg over your head. You have to know Rachel, I never wanted to hurt you like that."

Rachel scoffed at my explanation, "Sure Jesse. Like I really believe that. You did more than hurt me. You crushed me. You and your soulless Vocal Adrenaline teammates. Did you know that after all that, that Shelby didn't even want me? She chose Quinn and Noah's baby over me, because apparently I was too old for her to have a mother-daughter relationship with anymore." She stood in front of me on the stage, with heart-wrenching sobs coming out of her mouth.

Before I knew what was happening, I jumped onto the stage and held her tiny shaking form to me. "God, Rachel. I am so sorry. I never wanted that to happen. If I knew what she was going to do, I never would have gone along with her plan."

"But you did." Rachel shoved me away with more strength than I knew she possessed. "You did go along with her plan. You let her string me along, you set me up for this heartbreak. You planted that tape. You made me believe that I could just walk up to her and she would instantly love me."

I looked at her dumbly and nodded my head in response. "Yeah, I did. Before I knew you, before I fell in love with you. I was doing it to put you in a funk. Make sure you weren't at your best for Regionals. Once I got to know you though, I couldn't do it. At least, not for her. I did it for you. Hearing you say how much you wanted to meet your mother…"I let my sentence trail off as I looked at the one person who's opinion really mattered. "Rachel, you have to believe that I only wanted you to be happy."

She sighed and held her head in her hands. "I don't know what you want from me, Jesse. What do you want me to say?"

"I want you to say you forgive me. Look, I know I broke your heart and you have no reason to forgive me, but please? I am so, so, sorry. I have spent countless nights awake wishing I could take back everything I did."

"Sorry, Jesse. I don't think I'm ready to forgive you quite yet." She jumped off the stage and ran up the aisle. Rachel spared one last look at me before walking out the door, leaving me alone in the auditorium.

I wish I could have given her some half-hearted platitude, or some thinly veiled lie about why I came back. I had wanted to tell her that I came back to take her to Prom, that I flunked out of UCLA and I was back here until I figured out what I was doing next. But instead, she looked at me with those soulful eyes. The eyes that still haunted my dreams, and forced me to tell the truth any time I looked into them. I had hoped I could just apologize, take Rachel to Prom and make Finn jealous in the process, and then we could go on with our lives. But now, I had broken the heart of the sweetest person I had ever known, and I didn't know how I would fix it.

A/N: I think this is another one that I will make another chapter for :) Let me know what you think
