Together again episode 1

After her break up with finn, Rachel has a break down and her dads think it is best if they move away to give Rachel a fresh start. But clearly this was not the best idea. They moved to Atlanta were they spend the next two years.

After graduation her dads decided to move back to lima because they just missed it to much and Atlanta was much too hot for them. While Rachel on the other hand is off to New York after being accepted to Julliard. But once she gets there she finds that it is a lot different that what she saw in her dreams.

Regular POV:

Rachel was in her dorm room going though her mail and noticed her midterm marks had finally arrived. She opened the envelope slowly afraid at what she might she. She looked at the lone piece of paper in front of her and her face went expressionless.

Rachel *thinks: OMG! What am I going to do! My dad's re going to kill me! I Rachel Berry had flunked out of Julliard! How could this happen! I mean I'm a star! I was born a star! I have always been a star! And now…

She continued to rant on for hours, then finally managed to clam down. She called her dads and told them what happened. She knew they weren't happy but they sound kinda glad that she was coming home.

Rachel: well I might as well start to pack since I'm have to go back to lima.

-Lima, Ohio Airport-

Dad 1: Rachel we are so happy to see you!1 (hugs her)

Dad 2: We've missed you so much! (hugs her)

Rachel: I've missed you too.

They walk out to the car and back to the Berry house.

Rachel *thinks: Why does this street look so familiar?

They pull up in the drive way.

Rachel: (looks out the window of the car) OH NO!

She realized why it all looked so familiar. This was his street! She had been here so often during sophomore year no wonder it looked so familiar.

Rachel *thinks: Why, why me! Why of all places to live did we have to live here! Right next to him! Right next to Finn Hudson!

They all got out of the car and her dads brought her bags inside. As she walked to the house Rachel did the best she could to hide her face from the young man water the grass next door.

-With Finn-

Finn *thinks: It can't be? Can it? After all these years could she really be back? No what am I saying even if she is she wont be here long before she goes back to New York. Just forget it Finn you lost your chance with years ago when you broke her heart.

-With Rachel-

Rachel went to her new room and lay flat on the bed.

Rachel *thinks: How could my life get any worse! I failed at following my dreams, and now I'm back in stinking lima living next to the reason why I left. Mr. Finn Hudson. The man that broke my heart.
