Comforting a broken Rachel Berry was something Quinn expected. Holding a crying Rachel Berry for hours until she exhausted herself to the point where she just hiccuped and slammed her head onto Quinn's chest. The broken brunette sat on Quinn's lap, clutching at the sides of the blonde's shirt, her shoulders and chest soaking in Rachel's tears. Quinn felt utterly helpless. She had just sat there, the girl crying on her, rubbing her back, quietly begging for Rachel to stop crying, promising everything was going to be okay, but she was sure Rachel didn't believe her, she wasn't even sure to believe it herself.

The blonde let out a shaky breath, as she felt Rachel's breath begin to even out, the tears had stop flowing, but she continued to let out little whimpers, which tugged at Quinn's heart in a way that just tore her apart.

"Rachel, we're going to lay down now, okay?" Quinn waited until she felt the tiny brunette in her arms nod softly before leaning back, while she slid her legs on top of the bed, Rachel had moved to lay straight on the bed, and Quinn slid right beside her. Rachel gripped the collar of Quinn's shirt, and leaned her head back onto the taller girl's chest. The blonde had wrapped her arms around Rachel protectively just before there was a soft knocking on the door.

Rachel tensed, And Quinn pulled her tighter to her, she lifted her head, watching the door open, and relaxed as soon as she locked eyes with Brittany. She loosened her grip on Rachel, but the brunette didn't.

"Quinn..." Brittany's eyes flicked between the two cuddled on the bed. taking a step inside, Santana pushed the door more open, so that she was able to stand beside Brittany, she looked between the two girl's on the bed and smiled softly.

"D'aw, now isn't that just adorable" Her smile faltered, as Quinn glared at her. "Serious moment, got it" Santana nodded, stepping behind Brittany so she could get out of Quinn's view, the glare made her uncomfortable on so many levels.

"Quinn it's uh, visiting time is over" Brittany announced, tapping her watch, as Quinn sighed, she rubbed Rachel's back twice before lifting up, only to be tugged back down by the brunette. Brittany turned to look at Santana, who quirked up an eyebrow at the action, that she watched over Brittany's shoulder, her eyes flicked to Brittany's.

"Rach..." Quinn's voice was low, while she tapped Rachel's hands, that stayed gripping the collar of her shirt. "I gotta-"

"No." Rachel growled out in a raspy, broken voice. Quinn's jaw slacked open, as Brittany whipped back around to the two figures, Santana stepped out from behind Brittany, her hands intertwined behind her back and her eyebrows scrunched together. A slow smirk started to grow on Santana's face.

"Rachel it's the rules" Brittany stated, taking another step further into the room.

"No." Rachel shook her head against Quinn, as the blonde just leaned her forehead onto the top of the brunette's head, caressing the side of her body softly.

"I'll be back" Quinn whispered to her, noting Rachel's grip loosen slightly.

"How...How can I be sure it's you?" Her grip released, and Rachel pushed away from Quinn, turning over and facing her back to the blonde, she wrapped her arms around her self, and curled into the fetal position. "You...I...You...Can't..." Rachel trailed off, feeling fresh tears sting her eyes as she let out a shakey breath. "You won't be back" Rachel whispered, and Quinn barley caught it, but she had. Quinn slid her legs off the bed, but kept her hands on the bed, as she faced Rachel's back.

"I'll promise you a thousand times that I'll be back" Quinn bit her lip with a frown as Rachel slowly shook her head.

"Promises were meant to be broken" was all Quinn heard, she felt a hand grip her shoulder and she stood up, her eyes looking between Brittany's before facing Rachel.

"Mine are made to last" With no reply from the brunette, Brittany walked with Quinn out the door, waiting for Sanatana as she shut Rachel's door softly. Quinn shook her head, trying to get the sound of Rachel's weak voice out of her head, and her blood began to boil, remembering what had made Rachel that way in the first place. She shrugged off Brittany's hand and turned to glare between the taller blonde and brunette latina.

"Quinn, we have-" Brittany began, taking the small book, Quinn had now noticed Santana was holding, Quinn had still cut her off.

"Who the fuck is...Finn?" Quinn whispered his name, considering she still stood near Rachel's room door, she didn't want to risk the brunette hearing, and crying fresh tears, without being able to hold her until she falls asleep. Brittany and Santana turned to each other, both expressing a confused look before turning back to Quinn.

"The janitor?" Brittany answered, her head tilting, wondering why Quinn looked so angry, Finn, to her, seemed like a nice guy, he worked hard at his job, kept the place spotless...mostly, and once in a while brings her a flower or two he picked from his garden that he likes to work on.

"Yes the fucking janitor, what's his deal?" Quinn's words dripped with anger, she still tried to keep her voice low, but it was hard to do when all she wanted was to just beat the guy into a pulp.

"He just...works, here?"

"He also like to charm blonde's, what did he do?" Santana spoke up, crossing her arms over her chest. While Brittany had a positive opinion on Finn, Santana hadn't liked him either. The flowers, and attempts to flirt with Brittany always boils her blood, Brittany states he does a good job at cleaning, while Santana can argue that half of the bathrooms here aren't cleaned at all, and when they are, it's a lousy job.

"I'm sure he means no harm to you Quinn, he does have a thing for blonde's" Brittany patted Santana's shoulder as she gave Quinn a sweet smile, only to have it falter as Quinn gritted her teeth.

"No. No he does not have a thing for Blonde's. Please fucking explain to me, why I caught him walking into Rachel's room, as he undid his pants" Quinn's eyes narrowed, watching Santana's eyes widen and Brittany's face scrunch up into full confusion.

"I..I don't-" Brittany thought of ways to defend the guy but couldn't think of a single explanation.

"That fucking bastard" Santana scoffed, her arms crossed harder as she shook her head. "I thought he stayed in Berry's room way longer than any place else he was supposed to clean"

"And you did nothing?" Quinn took a step forward, her eyes locking with Santana's.

"I-"

"You not once, pulled him aside and questioned why he spent so much time in Rachel's room?"

"uh"

"Not once, made him look at the rooms he failed to clean because he took his time in Rachel's room doing unexplainable things to her while he was on the clock?" Her eyes glanced at Brittany, watching the taller blonde, gaze down at the floor, probably thinking back to all the times she's seen his janitor cart outside her room door and added up the minutes it stayed there compared to the other rooms.

"I didn't-"

"Of course you didn't, Nobody fucking thought to talk to Rachel. Nobody went up to her to see if she was alright every fucking day, no. God forbid I didn't catch him today, who knows what he's been doing to here. Because Nobody. Fucking. Talks." Quinn's teeth clenched as she spoke the last three words, her hands rolled into fists and she squeezed, trying to contain her anger. She knew it wasn't, Santana and Brittany's fault exactly, who would question a janitor's motives when you expect them to just be cleaning?

"This can't be..." Brittany started, she tapped her chin with her index finger, shaking her head. "I just...I can't believe he would...he would try to...I just don't understand"

"She's an easy target" Santana looked down, scuffing her shoe against the floor. "Broken, marked as a lost cause, no one would expect a thing from her...she's always been quiet" Santana ran her hands through her hair and sighed. Her eyes met up with Quinn's before turning away. "I'm sorry...I didn't...I didn't do anything, as much as I pick on her, I do actually care.." Santana scratched the back of her neck as Brittany patted her on the back.

"Listen Quinn.." Brittany looked at Santana before facing the shorter blonde. "This won't go away in one day" Quinn nodded. "For this situation to be dealt with, we need proof, and proof and more proof to back us up if he is doing what we think he is doing" Brittany dropped her hand to the side, and swallowed hard. Her head filled with the helpless image of Rachel being sexually abused, and it just tore her heart open. She cleared her throat, attempting to control the tears that are ready to fill her eyes and spill down her cheeks.

She took the book Santana was holding and held it out to Quinn. "This was Rachel's" Quinn blinked, her anger disappearing in a instant as she took the book and eyed it. it was a typical notebook, with a black cover, she opened it up to find three words in huge bold print.

RACHEL'S BUCKET LIST

Quinn looked up at Brittany, her eyebrow arching perfectly.

"Her bucket list?"

"Yes, she had done that, the first week she had been signed up here. She said she wanted to do it with the helper who cared about her..." Brittany trailed off and Santana bit her lip.

"But Rachel has been marked as being here for two years already how come she still has this..." Quinn looked down, scanning through the pages, each at the activity written at the top followed by an empty check box at the top right corner and covered in pictures relating to the event. "Why are none of these checked...as she done nothing?" Quinn looked up in time to see Brittany sigh sadly; Her eyes turned to Santana who nodded as well.

"Her helpers usually lasted about three to five days" Santana shrugged. "None of them really stuck long enough for Berry to give them the book...when the last helper disappeared on her, she broke down, and just threw the book at Brittany. She said she'd never get to do it with anyone, so she suggested just burning the book"

"Which of course I didn't" Brittany smiled, proud of herself, as Quinn nodded, she shut the book and held it under her arm.

"Well, this would be a good distraction tonight, so I won't have to think of that idiot" Quinn licked her lips before looking between the blonde and brunette. "I'll see you both tomorrow...Santana be a dear and bring her a damn breakfast" Quinn said through clenched teeth, before turning on her heel and simply leaving.

"She's mad" Brittany mumbled as Santana, just moved to hug her around the waist.

"But she's going to be around for Rachel...and that's what we all need"
