I got inspired to do this. Well, what happens that causes her to write the letter happened to me and I wrote the letter, so yeah.
I wrote the first letter that I would never send when I was 17, and had just said yes to Finn. A bad dream, which I had more than I had good dreams, woke me up at 2:49 in the morning, and something was making me do it. So half awake, I wrote Noah Puckerman a letter on Hello Kitty stationary from when I was 8.
Dear Noah,
I want you to be the first to know, because it should have been you. I am engaged to Finn. He got the girl again. I'm sorry. This summer, when we had our heart to heart, I know that we admitted our mutual feelings, but I couldn't do it. I swore to you that I would break up with him, and I couldn't do it, and couldn't do it, and now I can never do it.
It really does come down to the fact that he is the one I should want, he is the one I'm supposed to end up with. He is the one my dad's approve of. He is the one that everyone expects me to be with. I've hurt him so many times Noah. I don't want to do it again, especially now that he knows the truth about his dad. I know I've hurt you too, Hell, we've been dealing each other blows since pre-k. But you are the strong one. You are the one who I think will move on.
Please don't think that this means that I don't love you, but I can't do it to him.
Yours forever,
Rachel Berry *
The second I signed it and added my signature star, I fell into my bed and was asleep in a second. When I found the letter the next morning, I almost threw it away. Instead I folded it up and stuck it in my empty desk drawer. Then, I slapped my smile on my face and put Finn's ring on my necklace, because the added weight to my hand was uncomfortable.
I'll defiantly do at least one more chapter, but tell me if I should do it when they are graduating OR when she and Finn have their wedding. I am considering doing it for a life-long story, maybe even having some where he writes her, but I need you to review and tell me what you want.
