I got the idea for this story from The Spill Canvas song "Self-Conclusion." If you don't know the song, I suggest you look it up and give it a listen. For the opening, everything they have to say will be through the song lyrics. I'll have Quinn in italics, Rachel in bold, and the narrations regular.

Disclaimer: obviously I do not own anything Glee or the whole show would be about Faberrittana and Mike Chang :)

As Quinn stood at her favorite thinking spot, a cliff on the outskirts of Lima with what seemed to be a fifty foot drop and a beautiful view overlooking her town, she noticed the reason she had ended up there at this time of night walking straight towards her. Rachel Berry.

Fade in, start the scene
Enter beautiful girl
But things are not what they seem
As we stand at the edge of the world

Rachel was making her way to the top of what she liked to call Gold Star Point. As she approached the edge of GSP she noticed a girl wearing a zip-up jacket with the hood pulled over facing away. She made her way up to the mystery woman.

Quinn was hoping if she didn't turn around that she could avoid all contact with the girl, and then she heard...

Excuse me, miss,
But I have plans to die tonight
Oh, and you are directly in my way
And I bet you're gonna say it's not right

Quinn couldn't believe what she was hearing. Yes Rachel Berry had a difficult life with the looks she would receive when she was out with her gay dads and the constant teasing and slushies at school, but the blonde never imaged that anything could make her want to end her life. Going against her initial wish of avoidance, she decided to turn to the girl she tormented all these years...

Excuse me, miss
But do you have the slightest clue
Of exactly what you just said to me
And exactly who you're talking to?

The last person Rachel Berry expected to see on the night where she would end it all was Quinn Fabray. Not being in the mood to be polite she said

I don't care, you don't even know me

Being caught off guard by Rachel's uncharacteristic harsh tone, she barely noticed confessing her new intentions

I know but I'd like to change that soon, hopefully

There was no going back on that comment, she decided to continue to open up to the brunette

Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion
You see the trick is that you're never supposed to act on it
No matter how unbearable this misery gets

Rachel couldn't believe the irony. Quinn Fabray trying to talk her out of jumping, one of the reasons she decided to jump in the first place.

You make it sound so easy to be alive
But tell me, how am I supposed to seize this day
When everything inside of me has died?

Quinn knew what she was about to ask Rachel. The same Rachel that has always been below her in social status. The same Rachel that she nearly tortured in high school. The same Rachel that she had trained herself to freeze her emotions around. And for once in her life, she didn't care

Trust me, girl
I know your legs are pleading to leap
But I offer you this easy choice-
Instead of dying, living with me

Rachel was stunned. She wasn't sure if Quinn meant living with her in the same world, maybe the same town? Or was this an invitation to become a major part of each others' existence? The brunette had to ask again

Are you crazy? You don't even know me.

With a small smile towards Rachel Berry's ongoing question, she decided to playfully repeat her own words

I know, but I'd like to change that soon hopefully

As she met the smaller girl's chocolate eyes with her own, she felt a connection more intense than anything she had ever known. She took her by the hand and explained

I would be lying if I said that things would never get rough
And all this cliche motivation, it could never be enough
I could stand here all night trying to convince you
But what good would that do?
My offer stands, and you must choose

Rachel's breath hitched as she never expected to run into this dilemma tonight. It was suppose to be the night she never had to worry about anything again, and suddenly she couldn't help but feel attached to this new woman standing right in front of her. The electric charge between their interlocking fingers was enough to convince her

All right, you win, but I only give you one night
To prove yourself to be better than my attempt at flight
I swear to god if you hurt me I will leap
I will toss myself from these very cliffs
And you'll never see it coming

Quinn could barely process the words she had just heard. Rachel Berry was giving her a second chance. For once, she couldn't let the brunette be the only vulnerable one...

Settle, precious, I know what you're going through
Just ten minutes before you got here I was gonna jump too

As the ex-cheerleader reached her hand to wipe away the tear running down Rachel's face, the smaller girl placed her arms around Quinn's waist and engulfed her in a tight squeeze while sobbing into her hoodie with overwhelming emotion.

Quinn couldn't help but look out to the town beyond them and be thankful for the opportunity to change everything. And then she broke out into a cold sweat realizing that she now had to plan a night that would give the girl in her arms a reason to live for.

So that's the first chapter. I know where I want to go with the story but I'm not exactly sure how many chapters it's going to be. Thank you for reading and don't forget to review :)
