(Quinn's POV)

I looked at the white board at the front of the class which would tell us our assignment. Duets. I grinned, we'd done this assignment once before, except I sang 'lucky' with Sam, which looking back makes me feel incredibly awkward. Looking back on my early years of glee club, I was going after the wrong person.

I looked to the entrance to find Rachel Berry, wearing her usual green reindeer jumper, green tartan mini skirt and knee high socks outfit. I felt my heart skip a beat, something that happened a lot when I looked at her. I often pretended that I hated her, which was only half true. I hated the fact that she hadn't asked to sing a duet with me. She'd sang with Finn on countless occasions, as well as Kurt and Mercedes.

"Okay, so this week will be duets week, I know we've done this assignment before but I think we have great potential in this room for a new sound. I have put names into a hat so we get different groups." Mr Shue began, making the entire group sit down and look at him, ready to hear the pairings.
"Kurt and Santana" Mr Shue called, making Santana grin enourmously, almost like she had a plan. I bit my lip, knowing my name would be called soon enough.

The teacher kept calling names, writing them on the board so that there was no swapping. The others were Mercedes and Finn, Puck and Brittany, Sam and Artie, Mike and Blaine, Tina and Sugar, Joe and Rory and then I felt my heart stop beating altogether. Rachel and Quinn.

I smiled to myself, watching Rachel walk over to me nervously. Her hands were fiddling with her hair, obviously nervous with being paired with me. I blushed, she was beautiful when she was nervous.

"Hi Quinn, um.." she paused to bite her lip, "Have you got any ideas for our duet?". I moved my bag, gesturing for her to sit down as the occupants of the room moved to sit by their project partners. "Actually, I was hoping you could come over for diner tonight" I said, not bringing myself to look at the girl who i'd had a crush on from the start of Freshman year.

"I'd love too" she smiled, looking away from me as she looked at the other pairs. "We're easily going to win this you know" she said, almost
to herself.
