Chapter 1
"Quinnie? Hey Quinnie, get up. C'mon we have to go now, Quinn." The little brunette girl pushed on the blondes arm that was currently covering her eyes. They were under their favorite tree at the park, just enjoying their last day together. It was starting to get late and and off in the distance you could hear a bell ring and a bright light shown from a house. "Quinn, you have to get up. We have to go now. Grandma is calling us for dinner." The blonde grumbled under her breath. "No, I wanna stay here. Stay with me, Rach." Quinn rolled over and put her head on Rachel's lap. The small girl sighed and ran her fingers through the blonde hair.
Quinn hummed her appreciation and snuggled closer into Rachel's lap. "One more minute, please?" A sudden flash brought Rachel's eyes up. The light was now a bright green. "Oh no! Quinn, it's green! We have to go! Now!" Rachel jumped up pulling the slightly taller girl with her. Quinn staggered up and looked up at the far away light. "Grandmas going to be mad." Rachel scoffed and shook her head already starting toward the path that would lead them home. "Well she wouldn't be if someone didn't play lazy and get up when I told her to." Quinn walked next to Rachel looking at the ground, "I'm sorry, Rae. I just didn't want to leave. After dinner I have to go home and then I'm leaving. I just wanted to spend as much time with you as I can." Rachel looked at her and felt tears welling up.
She launched herself at Quinn and gave her the biggest hug shes ever given anyone. Quinn hugged her back with as much fervor. "I know, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to rush or anything. Id rather stay with you, but we have to go, you know?" They both nodded and walked up the path holding hands. "Rae?" The younger girl looked at the blonde. "Ya, Quinnie?" Quinn looked down at her and held out her pinkie. "Promise me you'll wait for me, your my best friend Rae and I love you. Ill be back ok." She finished nodding her head once. Rachel burst into tears then. She linked their pinkies and nodded her self. "Definitely. I'll wait forever Quinn." Quinn smiled and wiped Rachel's tears away with her thumb. They both looked at each other now memorizing everything they could. Quinn couldn't help leaning in. Rachel's breath caught as her eyes fluttered closed. It was only a quick kiss but neither girl could ignore the sparks.
Quinn moved back enough to touch foreheads together. "I love you, tiny." Rachel smiled and hugged her tightly, burying her head into the taller girls neck. She took in a deep breath, inhaling the scent of the girl who at the time had been her hero, and her best friend. "I love you too, Quinnie. Forever and ever." Both of the girls walked back to Rachel's house hand in hand, both remembering when they first met. It was in the second grade. Rachel didn't have many friends and most of the kids made fun of her. Quinn on the other hand was different. She had plenty of friends, very popular actually, but was very nice and polite. She was never the one to torment Rachel. She went out of her way to hang out with Rachel and she protected her whenever someone was being a bully. They quickly became best friends and have been for the last two years. Not long at all to either of them. But now Quinn's parents were making her move. They never liked Rachel because of her two gay dads. Quinn's father was a very religious man and called them sinners every time he heard the Berry name. Quinn's mother just followed a long, too scared to ever say anything.
Quinn kept Rachel and her friendship a secret all this time knowing full well what would happen if they found out. He'd keep them apart. They were doing so well at hiding it too. Until a few days ago. Quinn's father happened to pay a visit to the elementary school as a surprise. He found the two girls under a tree laying on each others shoulders holding hands. He had yelled at them non stop until a teacher had to pull him away. The very next day it had been announced that they were moving but Quinn had no idea where. The girls were crushed and vowed to spend every moment together that they had left.
Today was their last day and had spent most of it in each others arms. They talked about everything that came to their mind. Every single memory that they had together. Quinn had promised to write to her whenever she could. After dinner it was time for Quinn to leave. As Quinn was leaving, everyone crying and falling on each other not wanting to say goodbye, Rachel ran up to her holding a necklace with a silver star charm on it and promptly put it on Quinn. She looked up at her. Silent tears running down both of their faces. "I'll be waiting, ok?" Quinn nodded too choked up for words and leaned down to kiss Rachel again. She hugged her tight and whispered into her ear, "I love you, Rach. Now and forever, ok? Don't forget." they hugged each other not wanting to let go until Rachel's dad, Leroy, had to break them up stating that Quinn's parents would be expecting her soon. With final goodbyes Quinn left, clutching the charm necklace around her neck.
Rachel had sobbed all night thinking about Quinn. Taking comfort only from her grandma. Grandma Berry was Rachel's rock. She knew the little one inside and out and loved her to death. When she met Quinn the first time, she had a field day. She knew just by looking at the girl. She'd punk on the girls, always talking about how they would get married and be together forever. Tonight had most definitely broken her heart. To see Quinn kiss Rachel and then leave, she nearly passed from heart ache. Now she was reassuring the small brunette that someday they would meet again. It just had to be fate. It had to be.
Over the next few months Rachel slowly got better. She stopped crying all the time and acting like a zombie junior. She soon lost hope of ever getting a letter from Quinn, having not had any contact at all from the girl. After about a year in a half Quinn's name was never spoken of again. Rachel, instead put all her attention on becoming a Broadway star. She had already been in ballet and vocal coaching since she could remember. She joined any and every extra curricular she could in middle school, she was in drama class and took every part she could have.
During the seventh grade Grandma Berry had a long talk with Rachel. She told her to follow her dreams and hold onto the love she comes across. She looked right into the girls eyes, "Don't forget about love, Rachel. It's the most important thing in the entire world. You may become famous someday and award winning and all but someday you'll come across someone who takes your breath away. You'll want nothing more to spend the rest of your life with them. To hold their hand through thick and thin. Don't forget, Rachel. Remember? Don't forget." she hoped with all her heart that the two girls she loved dearly would reunite some day and remember the love they once had. She kissed Rachel on the head and hugged her tightly before going to bed never to wake again.
The Berry men thought it would be wise to move somewhere else. To get away from all this heartache. They ended up in Lima, Ohio and settled there. Rachel had done eighth and ninth grade online but did manage to make some friends around the town eventually. She had decided to start public school again for sophomore year. What she would encounter there, though, would send her on a riveting, extraordinary, and emotional roller coaster.
