Unintentional Happiness

by QueenDiannaAgron

Quinn Fabray thought she'd escaped Rachel Berry but after bumping into her in New York, all of her feelings come flooding back... Set immediately after Series 6 but before the '5 years later' section of the finale. This was originally called 20 Years Later but as the Author's Note in the prologue explains, I changed it. Updated regularly.

Prologue

This wasn't supposed to happen.

I wasn't supposed to see her again.

The blonde scribbled in her diary, emotions overflowing onto the page.

I thought she'd moved back to Ohio, otherwise I would've never taken the graduate job in New York.

The last I'd heard, she'd made it big on Broadway, given it up to do a terrible TV show and gone home to end up teaching the New Directions.

So many people hate her now, but I could never hate her, because although I don't like to admit it, I'm in love with her.

I have been for as long as I can remember.

The girl sighed, physically drained.

I'm in love with her.

She writes again.

I'm in love with Rachel Berry.

A/N: I'm still writing chapters for You're All I Need (and even uploaded chapter 10 yesterday), but I had this idea for a new fic and didn't want to forget it. I haven't written any more than this yet but thought I'd publish this very short prologue.

A/N2: I am changing this from the original idea (which was going to be set 20 years after graduation) because I got a very accurate Guest review that pointed out I am too young to write in the mindset of a 38-year-old, so if by any chance you're reading this, thank you for the review. Also it was accidental that I was blackmailing people into review for more content, I was going to update regardless. The review has been moderated for anyone who's interested in reading it.

A/N3: So now, as the summary explains, this will take place after the events of series 6, but before the '5 years later' part of the finale.
