It was a sad day in New York for the New Directions Glee Club for they had just got the news that they had placed twelfth in the National Show Choir competition. Everyone was either shocked or upset about the loss, most not wanting to talk about it while the ones who did were blaming Finn for his kiss to Rachel including Rachel.
Rachel wanted to place more than anything. They had come so far and it was devastating that they had received twelfth place. What was worse than not placing was Finn kissing her in front of everyone. She had no clue it was coming and was surprised when he leant into kiss her after singing the son Pretending. The kiss was the kiss of death for the clubs any chance of placing since judges don't like performances to be on such an intimate level.
After receiving the news about the loss Mr. Schue had given a speech about how proud he was of everyone but even he seemed depressed about the loss. The kids then went their separate ways with most going out in the city to do some last minute sightseeing before they left in the morning. Rachel was too upset to go out so she went back up to her room. She was the only one there since Mercedes and Tina went out with Kurt to go shopping. After mopping around the room for a couple of hours Rachel decided that she needed some fresh air and headed down to the hotel lobby.
When she got there, she immediately recognized someone that she knew sitting at the bar sipping some sort of drink so she walked over.
"Mr. Schue? What are you doing here?" Rachel asked confused.
"Oh hi Rachel. Nothing much just enjoying a drink or two," he said a bit slurred. He had clearly had more than two drinks.
"Are you okay? You seem a little depressed," she asked.
"I'm fine. You guys performed great out there today," he said. "You especially," he added while grinning at her.
"Thanks. If Finn hadn't of kissed me, we would have placed. I'm so mad at him right know," Rachel said.
"It's not really Finn's fault, Rachel. I mean he did kiss you but he did it for a good reason. If I thought that would have been my only chance to kiss you then I would have done it as well," Will said not realizing what he just confessed. Rachel looked at him with a confused look on her face.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that," Will said looking rather embarrassed.
"No it's okay. You always know what to say Mr. Schue." Rachel paused before continuing. "You know instead of us feeling sorry for ourselves we should go out and enjoy the city as much as we can," Rachel said with excitement. "We need to have fun and forget about our troubles," she added.
Will perked up a bit at this idea.
"We should!" he said happily as he stood up from the bar stool, slightly stumbling. He then paid his bill and looked at Rachel. She was beautiful he thought. This was going to be the start of a very long night.
