Stuck in the middle of nowhere (closed) ( )

There was no traffic on this dusty road. Only a small mini bus, which was moving rather slowly. Mr Schuester sat in the drivers seat and in the passenger seat, was Coach Beiste. In order for Mr Schuester to get permission to take the glee kids camping, a female teacher had to go. And, if your eyes moved on from the first two seats, you'd see this. Artie was sitting in the special seat area, next to Mike. Brittany was talking to Mercedes and right at the back, Santana was making out with Puck. Sam was talking with Finn, and Rachel had her earphones in, and was clearly singing. And Tina was also near Mercedes.And near the front of the bus, sitting all by herself, was Quinn.

Her legs were tucked up underneath her, and she rested her head on her pillow, not exactly bored, but not exactly entertained. She was wearing black leggings and a red hoodie, very comfortable in her clothing. She had slip on white runners on her feet, and her blonde hair was tied up in a messy plait. Quinn didn't like camping. At all. She found it uncomfortable, and was easily scared by owls and complete darkness, so she tended to stay indoors. But she didn't really have a choice. They were meant to be 'bonding'. Yeah right. Bonding was not going to happen. More like hatred.

Quinn just stayed curled up on the bus seat, staring at the chair in front of her, as she rested her head on the pillow.

Tina was actually pretty excited go be camping. She'd always wanted to go. Sure she'd gone to Asian Camp, but that wasn't anything like this was going to be. This was hardcore-in the woods-sleep in a tent-camping. And the fact that this was the whole Glee club going just made it even more excitin, because she was sure she'd like it much better this way than with her family. That may have been kind of mean to think, but it was true...who knew what kind of weird things they'd want her to do with them?

There were only a couple of complaints that she had at the moment. Her ipod (which she was positive had charged all the way) was just about dead. There was time for about two, maybe three songs if she was lucky before it'd turn off. And then they didn't get to choose their tent mates. Probably because they didn't want the tents to end up being co-ed, at least that was Tina's theory. Hopefully the tents would comfortably fit two girls in them with all of their belongings. Not that she had too many things, she was told to pack light, so she did...as best she could.

After what seemed to be forever on the little bus, it finally stopped. Everyone practically gave a simultaneous groan when they were told they had to follow a trail to the campsite because the road ended here. They all piled out though, some more reluctantly than others, but eventually everyone was out and gathering up their belongings. It was a good ten minutes before they actually started walking down the surprisingly well beaten path. Tina was anxious to find out who she'd be tenting with. But, none of them would find out until the'd set up camp, and that was one more thing for her little list of complaints.

Quinn was one of the last people off the bus. Mr Schuester was the one who actually made her get off the bus, and the one who kept prodding at her back to make her keep on walking. "Quinn, what has gotten into you lately?" Mr Schuester asked, now walking alongside the blonde, who was grumpily holding her bags in her arms. "I just don't like camping." The blonde glanced at Mr Schuester. "Because of all the dirt and mud?" He asked. Quinn shook her head. "No. I just feel very uncomfortable sleeping outdoors..and I've just got a lot of fears." The blonde said, quietly, not looking up at Mr Schuester any more.

Soon enough, they had reached the camp site, and everyone, sort of quickly, put up their tents they had to share. "Santana your with Brittany, Mercedes your with Rachel and Tina your with Quinn. Puck with Sam. Finn and Mike. And, Artie, Finn and Mike have a three person tent, so you can go with them, or have your own. And, I'll be sleeping near the end of the trail, Coach Beiste will be closer to the public bathrooms. Alright?" Quinn nodded, and went to find the tent she had to share with Tina, taking off her shoes before she stepped inside, going over to the furthest corner to dump her stuff. That was now her corner. Quinn reemerged, and put her shoes back on, just lingering around outside the tent now, not exactly happy.

So far camping wasn't amazingly fun...but it'd get there, it was inevitable. Tina was in the process of setting up her side of the tent which she was sharing with Quinn. She didn't mind who her tent mate was, if anything she was happy. Because besides Mercedes, there wasn't anyone else she'd really be able to get along with. Sure she and Quinn weren't close, but she had a feeling they probably might be by the time they went back home. It wasn't like they were just going to not talk to one another after all.

Tina had her sleeping bag layed on the ground near one of the tents walls, and sat her pillow on top of it. From there, there really wasn't much else she could do. So, she just sat atop her black sleeping bag which she'd gotten just for this occasion. She couldn't ignore the scent that it possessed, which kind of smelt like new plastic, but with something else to it. It'd be a little hard to get used to, but she'd manage. It'd go away after a while right? Since being in the tent alone was extremely boring, Tina decided to go back outside with everyone else. She stepped out to find Quinn just outside their tent. "What are you doing?" she asked somewhat lightly as she put her shoes, that she'd left outside of the tent, back on.

Quinn glanced at Tina. "I don't know." The blonde spoke, shrugging a little, before walking over to where everyone was standing. Mr Schesuter had started a small camp fire, and they were gathered around it, having a bit of a laugh and eating some food. But Quinn just bent down, stole a marshmallow from someone's plate and started nibbling on it, walking away from the small crowd of people. Her other hand was in her pocket, gripping onto her phone. She just wanted to be back home, where it was safe. At the moment, she was completely out of her comfort zone. "Quinn, why don't you come here?? We've got some food." Brittany called out from the camp fire, and Quinn sighed, walking over to one of the empty chairs, and sitting down, crossing her legs. She just stared at the fire, her expression becoming rather scared and confused, almost child like, but she had no idea that her face was actually showing what she was trying to hide.

Tina herself made her way over to the fire and joined her little group of friends, within the group of friends. She was currently roasting a marshmallow, asking it repeatedly not to fall off of the stick while managing a conversation with her friends. It didn't really listen to her, and just before she was ready to take it from the fire, it fell. Thankfully Mike got her another one that she was more careful with and ended up getting to eat. She had one or two more after that, but decided not to have any more after that, for no particular reason really. Tina spent a good while talking and laughing and having an all around good time with her friends, before spotting Quinn. The blonde didn't look happy in the least which kind of unsettled Tina. So, she dismissed herself and walked around to sit beside Quinn on the ground beside the chair she was in. In hopes to brighten the girl up she greeted with a smile and a simple, "Hey."

Quinn was still staring at the fire, when Tina came over. She glanced down at her. "Hi..." She trailed off, a little unsure of why the girl left her friends, still a bit scared, and she grimaced a bit at the thought. "Tina, why did you come over here?? I mean it's nice of you, but don't you want to talk to your friends?"

Tina shrugged as she picked up a couple leafs and twigs and tossed them into the fire before her. She was quiet as she repeated the action a few more times before bringing up her knees to her chest and wrapping her arms around them, leaning back some to look up at Quinn. "Because you looked like you needed some company, and it's a small sacrifice I could afford to make." she smiled. "And you don't look like you're having fun. Like, at all. And I was going to ask why, sooner or later." she added.

Quinn opened her mouth to say something, but soon shut it again, her eyes straying to the fire then back to Tina "I thought you didn't like me." Quinn bit her lip. "I'm not trying to be rude..but that's just what I thought...And that's not why I'm not having fun." Quinn added, hoping she hadn't made the girl feel bad.

"Of course I like you." Tina replied just a little confused. "I mean there's sometimes when I can't stand you...but there's times when I can't stand anyone." the girl explained, before going back to tossing things into the fire which just happened to be very entertaining for her. "And that's the only reason you're not having fun?" she asked just a little skeptically.

"I'm not having fun, because it's camping. I hate sleeping outdoors, even though we are in tents. I don't like the dark, noises in the middle of the night freak me out..and it's just very uncomfortable for me. I'm an indoor girl, Tina. None of this is me. That's why I suggested a beach trip or something. Because beaches are nice. But no, instead, we are camping." Quinn sighed, clearly annoyed by what she was saying. "I just don't think everyone likes me here. It's not like I'm Rachel Berry, I'm not that annoying, am I?"

"No, not at all." Tina giggled. "But you do have some people that like you. And aren't we all supposed to be bonding? So maybe everyone will by the time we go home." she said optimistically, finally done playing with the fire after a couple of big sparks popped out and came too close for comfort. "I've never been camping before, so personally I'd rather be here that at a beach." she admitted and was quiet for a few seconds. "If you get scared or something at night you can try to wake me up and I'll talk you through it." she offered sweetly. Tina was pretty good at comforting people with words nowadays...well when she wanted to.

Quinn nodded. "Thanks, Tina. it means a lot to me that I can wake you up If I get scared." She smiled a tiny bit, standing up out of her chair. "I'm going to go attempt to cook a marshmallow. Want to come??" Quinn asked. When the other girl stood up, Quinn practically ran at her, giving her a hug. "Thanks again. Not many people know that I'm scared of a lot of things, so I'm glad you know now."

Tina returned the hug however surprised at it she was. "I'm glad you told me. Now, I don't really have to worry about you so much." she smiled as she pulled away and started off towards where all of the marshmallows and things were. "I don't think it'd hurt for me to have just one more marshmallow too." she decided out loud.

Quinn grinned, pinching a pink marshmallow from the bag, before stealing a stick and spearing the marshmallow, crouching down so it was closer to the fire.

Tina grabbed a marshmallow from the bag, as she took her stick back from Artie who had been holding onto it for her. When her marshmallow was in her stick, she sat one ground over beside Quinn and stuck it in the flame. Not only would it roast faster, but Tina thought that it'd taste better if it was a little burnt.

Quinn didn't st down, she just crouched, not wanting to get too close to the fire. She didn't' want to burn herself.

"So...are we just going to sit here quietly as we do this?" Tina asked with a smile, quickly pulling her marshmallow out of the flame and blowing it off after it had caught fire. Deciding it wasn't done yet, she stuck it right back in, trying to be careful of it falling off.

Quinn's eyes strayed to Tina. "Um..We can talk if you want. I don't know what to talk about though.." Quinn shrugged, her eyes falling back onto the marshmallow, as she steadied her hand.

"I do want to." Tina replied taking her marshmallow out of the fire again, letting it cool off some. "I was kind of relying on you to come up with something," she admitted as she slowly took her marshmallow off the stick and ate it. "It's pretty out here...isn't it?" she asked looking up at the trees after a little bit of silence between the two.
