i know i havent yet finished What Is Love but i just kept getting ideas for this story so i couldnt wait to write it! :P i hope you like it!


Gay, straight but emotionally unavailable, straight but emotionally unstable, straight but a complete tool, straight but actually gay, straight but married – the list goes on and on.

I have dated every type of guy. Literally. I've done the cute nerds, the hot guys, the quiet kids and even the guys whose sexuality I would strongly question. But it never works. No one is good enough! I know for a fact that my standards are high, I blame Disney movies, but don't we all deserve our prince charming? I want the guy who will announce how he feels about me in front of everybody, breathless as he had run to tell me. I want the guy who knows how to be romantic but can just be himself with me. He has to know how to cook and how to clean and even if he hates it, he'll do it just because I said please. He has to be fit and have a nice smile, great hair – not to mention an excellent body….all of his body.

I mean, that's all I want!

That's not too much to ask…. Is it?


"What was wrong with this guy?" asked Finn as he joined Rachel on the couch.

"He ordered a salad…." Replied Rachel, taking a sip of her beer.

"Oh! He didn't!" Finn said, mocking her.

"What kind of man orders a salad?"

Finn laughed. He loved hearing about the guys who were never good enough for her. He couldn't understand why she was still single. She was beautiful and funny, but he soon realised it was because of her. There was something stoping her from wanting to be happy with someone. She blamed her standards, he thought it was something else. Something deeper, something more meaningful. He just had no idea what.

"Of all the men in my life, Finn, you are the only man I can take out to dinner and actually have a good time with,"

"Next time I'm ordering a salad," he said, smiling.

"Don't mock me Hudson! You know who would win in a fight! In fact you know who has won in a fight!"

"Hey! That didn't count! I had just eaten!"

"Last time your excuse was that you had to pee. That's real good Finn, keep changing your story, that will make it more realistic!"

They both sat there and smiled at each other. Rachel much preferred having him as a roommate than any of the girls she'd ever shared a place with. There was no 'bitchy-ness', and they got along really well. They would both go out on dates and laugh about them later. Her life was going so well, apart from one aspect. The part where she was still single.

"Oh well, I guess I'll just die alone with my 83 cats…" sighed Rachel.

"That is only OK with me if you promise to name one Barney," joked Finn, "No, it's ok. If you're still single at 80, I'll leave my wife and kids and marry you,"

"What makes you think you'll be married?"

"Do we have a deal, Berry?"

She smiled at him and shook his hand. They started laughing and she lay her head on his shoulder. He kissed the top of her head and she looked up at him.

"I'm gonna go to bed, need help cleaning up?" Rachel asked.

"No I'm good. You have to get up early tomorrow, so I'll clean,"

"Thank you so much. I owe you!" she said as she stood up from the couch.

"I'll see you in the morning," he said, smiling.
