What is Lima?, a glee fanfic

What is Lima?

"C'mon, Rachel!"

She closes her eyes, and jumps.

It only took a second,

Jumping off the roof of Riley's grandfather's cottage,

And into the water of the vast lake below her.

"C'mon, Rachel!"

She was a junior at NYADA now; years had past.

And she was a different person now.

If someone had told her that she was

Rachel Berry,

The sophomore in high school

Who got slushied and thrown into dumpsters

Day after day,

She'd say 'you have the wrong girl'.

She'd say 'I'm Rachel Berry,

Confident

Talented

Beautiful.

I've never heard of a slushie-facial,

I've never seen the inside of a dumpster.

I've never had my lip-gloss flushed down the toilet,

Or had pornographic pictures of me drawn on the stalls.

What is Lima?

I've never heard of it.'

She hits the lake water,

And is thrown under

The rush is fun.

"That was great!"

Riley yells, splashing her as he swims over.

Riley is a dark-hair, green-eyed, junior at NYADA.

He has also been Rachel Berry's boyfriend

Since their freshmen year.

They embrace and kiss three times before he picks her up

And throws her into the water again.

She hits the surface laughing.

One year later,

They graduate.

They both leave NYADA with offers

From Broadway shows.

In a matter of months,

He will be in Newsies,

And she will be in Wicked.

It's almost so, so

Perfect.

Then, after they both have their diplomas,

He takes her aside.

"Rachel Barbra Berry,

Will you do me the honor of

Being my wife?"

It's two years after that, and

They have a son.

His name is Jake,

And he has brown eyes and dark hair.

It is a year after that,

They no longer live in a shoe-box apartment,

They live on the top floor in a penthouse,

Over looking the whole city.

Another year,

And now they have a daughter, too.

Her name is Emma,

And she's beautiful.

If you asked Rachel Berry –

Well, Rachel Parker,
