"Please tell me that you're joking right now!" Rachel Berry exclaimed to her best friend Santana Lopez. It had just been another day in their New York apartment that the two girls shared together when the Latina had dropped the news upon the little brunette.

"It's not like it was just my idea," Santana replied. "We all know that it's been forever since you've dated anyone, and we decided that this would be just one way to get you back in the game."

"We?" Rachel questioned, narrowing her eyes. "Let me guess, the 'we' being you, Brittany, Blaine, Quinn, and Noah, right?"

"Well yeah…," She answered trailing off and turning back to the t.v. show they had been previously been watching. "Look, Rachel, it's not like we're telling you to go jump off a cliff, or cut off your arm, or even that Broadway is going to end up-."

"Stop right there and don't even finish that sentence if you are going to go on and try to convince me to even consider going along with a ridiculous and idiotic plan that you've come up with." Rachel interrupted angrily.

"Chill out Rach. Point is that you are just going to be on some reality show that allows to meet a bunch of guys who are also looking for a relationship." Santana said, trying to get Rachel to go along with the idea.

Rachel couldn't lie to herself and say that she was fine being single for the last however many years now because honestly it had kind of sucked. But the truth was that she just didn't see how a t.v. show could help. Especially when it was reality t.v. Everyone on those shows were usually just attention whores who liked to play up drama to the cameras. So why would this be any different?

"Why is this so important to you?" Rachel asked frustrated and taking a deep breath in order to calm down. "You know that I'm busy anyway with the revival of Wicked and that this is probably the biggest opportunity I'll ever get." Santana rolled her eyes and sighed knowing that her friend was trying to get out of it.

"Nice try Berry, but you know that I know that while you're an extremely talented actress, you couldn't lie to save your sweet ass."

"That's only cause you've known me for the last fifteen years." Rachel mumbled dejectedly realizing her attempt was useless as she slumped back onto the lounge chair even further as if that would swallow her whole so she wouldn't have to face the situation.

"Exactly!" Santana grinned. "Plus you've only told me a billion times already that your performance as Elphaba on the stage will not be one to forget. So I know for a fact that the show's run is almost over."

"But really," Rachel said exasperated, "a t.v. show? You couldn't just let me do this the natural way? You know it'll never work out anyway right?"

"Well we'll see about that. I mean, who knows right? Anything could happen. It all depends on if you're willing to take a chance Rach." The Latina stated shrugging, trying to make it seem like she was being nonchalant when in fact she was dying for her petite friend to go out on a limb just this once.

Rachel sighed knowing that there was no way she would be able to get out of the show with Santana involved. The two girls had become best friends when they were eight years old and Rachel had learned over the years that it was better not to question her friend's crazy antics.

There is no way that any of this could ever work out, Rachel thought. It was all some big hoax anyway that people actually fell "in love" on a show. But she knew deep down Santana was only interested in helping her out and that she had a point. It had been a while now…

And that was that.

Rachel Berry was back in the game.

"What the hell man?!" Finn shouted coming in from the kitchen, phone in hand, face his step-brother. "Kurt, can you tell me why I just got a call from some reality t.v. show saying that they were looking forward to meeting Finn Hudson in Los Angeles in two weeks?"

"Oh boy…" Kurt sighed, trying to think of a way to explain what he had done to his furious brother.

"A-and not only that but they said to be ready for an interview to see if I'd be a good contestant to be in a relationship with some girl?" Finn finished with confusion.

It had just been an average day in the apartment when the phone had started to ring. Finn had just accepted the call when immediately after a recorded message had started to play. Apparently he was signed up to be on a show where he got to date a girl, but would have to compete alongside several other men too. To say Finn was shocked was an understatement considering he didn't even remember entering his name, but he soon realized there was only one other person who could have done it.

"Okay look, Finn, I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier but honestly I didn't even think they'd respond back." Kurt started, immediately going on the defense. "Plus I think it's about time you got back into dating again. I know your last relationship didn't go so well, but it's time to move on."

"But Kurt really? A t.v. show? And I'm competing with other guys…. How is this going to do any good?" Finn asked desperately trying to get the point across to his brother. This was probably the worst idea he had ever had, and that was saying something since he had once dressed up like Lady Gaga sophomore year of school. What possessed Kurt to do that, Finn would never know.

"I know it's not your average sort of dating-," Kurt began.

"Of course it's not!" Finn interjected.

"But who knows where it could lead to! I mean really what's the harm? At best, maybe you turn it into a relationship, and at worst, well you just get to talk to her at least a few times. But even that's an improvement in your dating life already! Seriously when was the last time you even asked out a girl Finn?"

"It's been awhile," he admitted dejectedly. It's not as if he'd meant to put off the dating part of his life, but he just didn't see the reason why it mattered so much after he had gotten his heart broken. However, after listening to Kurt's little plead for him to do the show Finn knew he couldn't say no. It'd be the absolute weirdest way to date a person, but he knew that he might as well take a chance.

Like Kurt said, Finn thought, who knew where it could lead to.

It was time for Finn Hudson to get back in the game.

Reviews are welcome!

A/N: So this idea came from the show The Bachelorette (which I don't own) and the title of the story is from A Chorus Line (which I don't own either). I don't know how well this will turn out considering it's my first story but here goes nothing!
