You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
So if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

-Frankie Valli

Quinn's getting married.

Correction. Quinn's married. She and Noah just kissed and he stepped on the glass, so it's a done deal. She's happy for her friend, she really is, which is why she's thrilled to serve as bridesmaid. It's just that Quinn was the last of her single friends, the one Rachel could always count on to go to the bar or hang out and watch girly movies. When Tina had gotten married, it hadn't really affected her since she'd still had Mercedes and Quinn. But then Mercedes had met Shane and Quinn just had to go and join that gym where she'd met Noah. As a result, she'd gained a closet of bridesmaid dresses and lost her girls.

So now it's just her. Only her to get set up by all her married friends who want her to be as happy as they are. In the past few months, she's met Mercedes' coworker who apparently was just perfect for her (he wasn't), Tina's neighbor who like to collect Beanie Babies (enough said) and Quinn's weird cousin John who she makes a mental note to avoid at the reception.

She supposes she's not totally alone since she still has Blaine but it's not the same. She can't exactly talk about her period with Blaine (she learned that the hard way) and although he's all about skin care regimens and looking good, it's not like they can raid each other's closets for outfits on a Saturday night. And going out to a bar or a club is certainly not the same since she has no one to gossip with in the bathroom.

She eyes Blaine sitting in the second row as she slips her arm through the groomsman she's sharing with Tina (Quinn had more girls than Noah did boys and as the resident single of the bridal party, she'd been tacked onto Tina and her husband Mike, further highlighting her singleness) and follows Quinn and Noah down the garden aisle, relieved that Blaine was still single so that they could be each other's dates.

Still, it could be worse. At least Quinn picked out a lovely bridesmaid dress, which can't be said for some of the other bridesmaids dresses currently residing in her closet and waiting to be worn. She takes her place in the receiving line between Mercedes and Tina, smoothing out the indigo tissue taffeta dress, admiring the soft pleats and gathers of the fitted bodice before it flared out at the knee and secretly thinking that she looked the best in it. Her hair is arranged in an amazing updo with just the tight amount of tendrils loose, her makeup is perfect and yet she's the only one without a ring on her finger or even the possibility of getting one in the near future since her date is a gay man.

She pastes a smile on her face as people she doesn't even know automatically tell her how pretty she looks before saying the same thing to Tina. She probably shouldn't have watched 27 Dresses the other day, since it's not handsome (single) men telling her how pretty she looks, just married men or men like Noah's gross Uncle Leo, who tells her to save him a dance. She smiles, making a mental note to be in the bathroom for slow dances. Not that she had anyone else to dance with other than Blaine for slow dances, but still. It's a little humiliating to think that no one under 70 wanted to slow dance with her.

She uses her remaining time on the receiving line to scope out the man situation, already knowing from helping Quinn do the seating chart that there weren't going to be too many single men in attendance (but just in case, she does a ring check of each man who meets her fancy).

It's not looking promising.

There's a ringless guy she'd been noticing work his way down the receiving line who had potential, fairly tall with close cropped hair. She'd followed him with interest, mentally planning what she was going to say as he got closer but of course, just as he got to Mercedes, a stupid blonde came out of nowhere and wove her arm through his.

Dejected, she sighs and focuses on greeting people, none of whom she knows or who are interested in knowing her. Females, males over 30 and males with wedding rings only get a customary thanks, while the few single men she sees get a bright smile and possibly a giggle. The exception to that is Quinn's weird cousin John who swoops in for a kiss before she can stop him. Not needing a reminder of the super sloppy kiss he'd bestowed on her at the end of their disastrous date, she manages to get her bouquet up to her face before their lips can meet and he ends up with a mouthful of lilies. Undeterred, he pulls the petals out of his mouth and grins, tossing in a wink and a comment about how he hopes they're at the same table (they're not. She's made sure of it).

Grossed out, she looks to her left and spies another potential single man making his way in line. Just to make sure he knows she's not with John, she takes a step back and adjusts her hair, throwing him a wide smile. A smile that dims when she sees the hand of the brunette next to him, a hand wearing a rather large engagement ring. Luckily, an old woman next to John takes a step towards her, which pushes John onto Tina and thankfully away from her.

She's fine tuning her plan to avoid John (and wondering if she can borrow Tina's engagement ring to fool him) when the line mercifully ends and the photographer grabs them for pictures, which means that her hopes of getting to the liquor in the limo are on hold for the next hour as the group poses for picture after picture.

Pictures with Noah. Pictures with Noah and Quinn. Pictures with just Quinn. Serious pictures. Silly pictures. She smiles through it all, the thought of how she'd have posed the bridal party if it was her wedding buried deep in the back of her mind. Her acting classes really pay off when she's forced to smile and not look humiliated when the photographer announces that he just isn't sure where to place her for the group pictures since everyone else is paired off. After much hemming and hawing, he ultimately decides to stick her on the end behind Mike, highlighting her singleness since Mike's not even facing her, he's facing his wife and holding her bouquet with her.

Finally the photographer announces that he'll meet them at the reception hall, leaving her free to climb into the limo and join Noah's younger brother Jake in breaking open the Champagne. He's already removed his bow tie and cracked open the bubbly when she settles against the seat and she practically throws a glass at him in her effort to get some liquor in her. Jake raises an eyebrow, but she just tells him to shut up and pour.

The cocktail hour is a slight improvement since she can stay with the other resident single of their group, Blaine, while enjoying some really good food and more importantly, an open bar. Uncle Leo is eyeing her across the room (eww) as is John (again, eww) and she spends the hour ignoring them while talking to Blaine about the latest episode of Downton Abbey and drinking.

Blaine, aware of her low tolerance for liquor, soon cuts her off but she manages to sneak one more glass of Champagne in once the bridal party is called to assemble for their reception entrance and Noah's grandma comments on how maybe if she was more friendly and not spending time with only the gays, she'd be having a wedding of her own soon. A waiter is passing by with yet another tray of Champagne and she grabs a second glass, ignoring his grandma's poignant stare and comment about how some girls have no morals as she downs the Champagne.

She's gonna need it.

A/N: Super short! I must be sick LOL. But actually, it's only short because I completely cut out Finn's POV, deciding to save it for the next chapter. Rachel's dress is posted on the mida page, if anyone is interested (Www. Mida212fanpage. Tumblr. Com)

Anyone see any of the hints in there? There were a few :)
