A/N: This came to me by watching a commercial which I know is weird. I'm not beta'd but if anyone would like to beta me, I'll be extremely happy. This story is completely AU, so unless I explain why Rachel knows them. She hasn't met them yet. Enjoy.

Rachel Barbra Berry smiled as she took another shot. She was currently wearing a navy pencil skirt, a white blouse with nude pumps. She has never drunk this much since collage, but after almost loosing one of her highest playing client for another publicity firm. She felt like she needed something to let loose, epically sense today was her 30th birthday. She hated the big 3-0. When she was younger always thought by 30 she'd be settled down with kids. Maybe even move back to New Jersey. But no, she was still single; she had a cat for god's sake. She even thought of adopting another one. Which she is still thinking about because although she doesn't want to turn into some stupid cat lady some kitty somewhere probably needs a home.

Anyways point is she is single working a job she hates to love, and now currently sitting in a bar with her four best friends. She had known Lucy Quinn Fabray since kindergarten. They had been forced to be friends when everybody else picked on them and never talked to them. Though they were never really what you call best friends, even though they were the only friend each of them had. When high school came and they bloomed Rachel growing into her nose, while Lucy now Quinn lost her weight and had a nose job. They both realized they were each others true friends, and since then have been attached by the hip. She had met Santana Lopez in collage. They were roommate and were the total opposites of each other. It came to a surprise to everyone when they became close friends. Santana pulled her back to Earth when she was acting stuck up, and she calmed Santana down when she acted like a bitch. She had met Kurt Hummel when she and Santana started their publicity firm together two years after getting their diplomas. Kurt at the time had been a nobody from Ohio who had wicked fashion sense and had given her wardrobe a complete makeover when he saw her shopping at Macy's. Needles to say she signed him as her first client, and now his label, Haus of Couture was on its way to becoming a house hold name. The story of how she met Brittany Susan Pierce was her favorite though. She was just doing her daily walk around central park when she saw a girl curled up in a ball on a bench. She feeling bad went to help her. Needless to say Brittany got lost trying to get to a dance audition somewhere, and she had helped her home giving Brittany her phone number and asked Brittany to call her if she ever got lost again. She called the next day this time in Brooklyn. They soon became friends when she gave Brittany a personal GPS.

"So how does it feel?" Santana sipped on her apple martini un-crossing and re-crossing her legs. She was wearing a gray 2 piece Nine West skirt suit skirt with black 3 inch Jimmy Choo heels.

"How does what feel?" She raised an eyebrow in confusion at her friend.

"How does it feel to be an old lady?" Santana giggled slightly.

"Oh don't be rude San." Quinn slapped Santana's hand playfully. She was wearing a floral loose dress and gladiator sandals.

"I'm not I am simply asking a question. I mean all of us are turning 30 this year, Rachel is just the first of us." Santana shrugged her shoulders like it was the simplest thing in the world.

"I have no idea what you're talking about I'm 27." Kurt rolled his eyes striating out his tie. He was wearing a simple gray 3 piece suit from his own label.

"Yeah maybe in your eyes, but to the rest of the world you're 29 going on 30." Santana giggling as Kurt shot daggers at her.

Rachel rolled her eyes at her friends and stood up from their booth. "I don't know about you but I need sleep so I can fight the hangover coming in the morning. So I say to you all goodnights." She hugged each one of her friends. "Bye bye Rachel. Make sure to lock the door when you get home, and only feed Pumpkin what I gave you. He's on and specific diet." Brittany smiled lightly at her. She was wearing a simple white t-shirt, black suspenders, skinny jeans, and black ankle boots "I promise Britt." Rachel hugged the blonde. "Oh check your email I sent you something." Santana smirked as Rachel began to walk away. Rachel scrunched her eyebrows in confusion before grabbing her purse and holding it tightly against herself as she began the walk down the block towards her New York City apartment.

Rachel smiled at the doorman, Figgans, politely before making her way through the lobby towards the elevator. She pressed the button to her level before leaning against the walls and sighing.

"Well, well, well, who do we have here?" She groaned as she heard the voice of none other Jesse St. James. Jesse sadly, was one of her biggest clients. She lost him after her repeatedly shutting him down for a date. She always had the excuse 'we work together, and I'm a professional', but then when they're contract was up for renewal he dropped her so they could date. Needless to say she was, and still is, too pissed off to go out with him.

"Leave me alone Jesse, I'm too tired to play games with you." She opened her eyes and looked strait at his smirking face.

"I'm not playing games Rachel; I just want to go to diner with you. Maybe even enjoy a glass of wine." Jesse made his way towards her smirking.

"Look Jesse, I'm not in the mood. Maybe I want to be single for a while? Who know, all I know is I don't want you. Now if you should excuse me this is my floor." She growled at him before practically running out of the elevator.

"Happy birthday!" She heard him scream and the doors closed.

She rolled her eyes as she walked towards her apartment. She was surprised to see the door open to the apartment across from her. She scrunched her eyebrows together before knocking on the door, smiling slightly as she heard the familiar guitar plucking coming from the couch.

"I'm guessing that date didn't go well?" She entered the apartment and dropped her purse on the floor before heading towards the couch. Sam Evans was the person she met when she moved into the building. He was simply enjoying his day off from his guitar store before he saw her move in, and since the only people helping her was Santana. He gave them a hand. Needless to say she's had an over growing crush on him sense.

"How did you ever guess?" Samuel Evans looked up from the guitar.

"Well for one the door would've been closed, and your fingers would've been playing with something else." She sat down next to him smirking.

"Dirty mind, Ms. Berry, dirty mind. The girl was too clingy." Sam leaned his guitar against his coffee table before picking up and pillow and patting it. She smiled before laid down and resting her head on the pillow. He looked pretty great dress in a simple tight white v-neck and black sweatpants.

"You are so picky Mr. Evans. They're either too tall, or to short. They're either clingy, or not interested enough. You know I hope one of these days you can find the right girl." Rachel looked up and him smiling.

"You and me both." He sighed. "How was your birth day Rach?" He ran his finger threw his hair.

"Besides the fact that I am so old? It was pretty good, but I'm so tired. Work was a complete nightmare. I almost lost Jessica to a new firm; I manage to convince her that nobody would work for her round the clock like I did. Honesty I'm so sick of these hot shot Divas thinking the own me. They have to remember they are under contract and if they quote un-quote fire me. I still get all my money. I can't wait to retire." She groaned and closed her eyes, secretly breathing his scent.

" Then why become a publicist?" He looked down at her questionably.

"It never used to be like this. It didn't use to be about the money. I loved the feeling of finding someone and making all their dreams come true. Then some of them turn into divas and act as if they'd be were they are today without me. That's the biggest lie." She sighed before sitting up and looking at him. "I'm going to bed. Goodnight."


So? The story Line with reveal it's self in the next chapter, but I wanted to introduce Rachel's character and her friendship with Sam, Santana, Kurt and Quinn a little bit.
