So after bawling my eyes out at the season finale of Glee I came up with this idea of a fanfiction so I decided to start writing it, this is my first Glee fanfiction so be nice. I might get Rachel wrong I'm not sure but yeah. The title is based off the song by Sara Bareilles and all the chapters will be too even if it really isn't associated with the theme of the chapter. I hope you enjoy! :)
Hugs and Reviews

I had a usual morning routine just as I had when I was in high school; every morning I woke up at 6 am, drank my protein drink and jumped on to my elliptical and today was no different…except when I woke up to a knock at my door I knew my plans were going to be delayed.
I had just turned on my iPod when I heard the knock, "really? Who comes to someone's house at six in the morning?" I thought as I approached the door. I hadn't even had the time to change out of my pajamas, which were old fashioned with adorable polka dots on it.
I let out a yawn before opening the door and much to my dismay there is absolutely nobody outside of it not even a bouquet of flowers or a box of chocolates. Rude.
I let out a loud sigh before poking my head outside and shouting "I have a very solid schedule everyday and whoever you are you just put a dent in it!" and with a huff I shut the door.
I continued back to my room looking at the clock on the bedside table, it was already 6:15, "Ugh! I can't even do my work out now," frustrated I head to the bathroom where I will now take my daily shower, which I usually do after working out.
By 8 I am out the door and on my way to the local Starbucks where I will be meeting Kurt and Blaine for our morning coffee before the biggest audition of my school year: Beauty and The Beast.
You may not know this but there is nothing more important to me then musical theater and even though Belle wasn't one of the three characters I've always wanted to play or even a Barbra Streisand character but experience is experience and I, well, loved the Disney movie so it should be a fun role to play.
I walk out of my apartment and head down to wait for a taxi to pick me up, I usually chose to walk everywhere but since today was a very important audition I couldn't help but decide to rest and take a cab even though they all smelled and the drivers were extremely rude I had to take one for the team.
"Excuse me!" I shouted sticking my hand out, it was the way the other New Yorkers did it so I had been skeptical at first to try it but I got used to it. The first two times it didn't work until finally a car was nice enough to pull over so I could get inside maybe I'd get lucky and this guy wouldn't be rude to me.
"Hi! Starbucks please the one on 291 Broadway please," I tell him as I shut the door and put my seatbelt on, even though all the germs on it freak me out. I sit in silence as we drive down the busy streets and that's when I hear my phone ring. I pull it out of my purse and see that the caller is my equally talented best friend Natasha so I decide to answer it immediately.
"Hi Natasha," I answer just as the cab driver pulls over I peek out the window to see that I'm at the Starbucks, "Natasha hello?" I look up at the toll for the cab and pull out the money I have in my purse and hand it to the cab driver thanking him.
"Rachel! What size are you?" she asks, that was the great thing about Natasha, she was our costume director so I didn't have to worry about her amazing singing ability outshining me (even though there were a lot of girls at the school who were I must admit better than me) I'm just glad my best friend wasn't doing it to me.
"Size? Size for what?" I ask pushing the door to Starbucks open with my hip once inside I notice Kurt and Blaine sitting close together, whispering to each other, I flash them a smile letting them know I was there before waiting for Natasha to reply because I really needed to order my Chai Tea Latte.
"Actually we can talk about this later good luck with your audition later," and with that says she hangs up. I roll my eyes and slip my phone into my pocket before turning my attention to the barista behind the counter.
"Hi Rachel what can I get for you today?" the Barista, Max, asks me even though he knows from me coming in all the time exactly what I want.
"Venti chai Tea Latte, skinny please," I say pulling out my money and handing it to the barista with a smile before walking over to Kurt and Blaine. I cleared my throat to get their attention but they still continued to whisper, I cleared my throat once more before I heard my name being called at the pick up counter.
"Oh Rachel! I thought I heard your voice," it was Kurt looking up at me, I just gave a quick smile before sitting down and pulling up close to the table very tentative to what was going to happen next.
"Rachel there is something we need to tell you," Blaine begins giving a quick smile to Kurt pretty much telling him to finish.
"We are going to finally get married!" Kurt finishes clapping his hands together and beaming at me, I felt my mouth drop open with surprise and then I felt my face begin to get hot, the word wedding draining the color out of my face. Blaine and Kurt exchanged a worried look before turning back to me.
"I'm so happy for you guys really...but look at the time! I'm gonna be late for my audition, I'll see you guys later," and with that I pushed the table away from me and nearly ran out the door trying my hardest to keep from crying.
Weddings were something I avoided; it was something I avoided almost as much as I avoided the name Finn.
