For Quinn Fabray and Santana Lopez, it was just another regular old boring day. As they mopped the floors, Santana kept whining about how stupid their jobs were. "You know that all that Rachel girl does is make the floors dirty, and we have to clean it. Like every day. I hate this."

"Stop it, she might hear you." "Please, she's doing royal stuff in the Mainland," Santana said. Quinn shook her head. "I actually saw her two days ago. She's returned - and I'm actually surprised she hasn't woken up and/or done something other than sleeping."

"That is peculiar."

"Do you think she might be..." "Shut up, Quinn!" Santana yelled. "Rachel can't be dead!" They both rushed into the room. Quinn simply poked Rachel, but Santana shook her violently. "What are you doing?" Quinn screamed.

"It must be a sleeping spell," a deep voice deadpanned. It was the King, Rachel's father. "Only her true love can snap her out of it." "By what, kissing her or something?" Quinn half-joked. "Yes, you're right," he replied.

Soon, three noblemen lined up outside the castle. "What is your name?"

"Noah. I am Rachel's true love." He stepped inside and kissed Rachel. She seemed to make a sound, but that was it.

Jesse St. James was next. Rachel groaned. But still, she was asleep.

Quinn and Santana nervously looked at Finn. He was the last one. Surely, he would awake Rachel, right? They both claimed to 'hate' Rachel, but if they were being completely honest they'd admit the truth - Rachel was an amazing princess and occasionally, a friend.

Finn anxiously looked at Rachel. Slowly, he kissed her for what seemed to be an hour (though it only lasted for two seconds.) Rachel said, "I love you."

Everyone was amazed. After all that, they all expected Rachel to jump up, marry Finn and live the rest of her life singing and dancing with him.

But that was it. A simple "I love you."

The King looked as emotionless as he did minutes ago. "I guess Rachel's going to be like this forever. Bring in the crystal casket and move her there." Everyone was crying.

All of the people of the village went to her funeral. It was pretty crazy. Two girls were just cleaning and they find a sleeping Rachel - only to find out there was a chance she'd never wake up. Three guys kissed her and try to wake her up, but apparently, none of them was Rachel's true love.

It happened so fast. Ridiculously fast. Too fast.

All of a sudden Jesse started moving closer to Rachel's casket. Bravely, he opened the casket.

He kissed Rachel for the final time. He just couldn't let her go that quickly.

To his and everyone else's surprise, Rachel stood up and rubbed her eyes. "What happened?" Jesse just smiled. "Jesse?" Rachel asked.

Maybe things aren't too late for a happily ever after.
