Rachel knew that there was no reason to be nervous. She had prepared herself for this moment all her life. All ballet classes, every practice of singing and body language since 3 years. All the investments that her fathers had done. She was capable of. Everyone believed it. Her parents, Mr. Schue, Finn, all of them knew what she could. She would go through that stage. And shine upon him. She would shine so strong and so beautiful that even the sun would weep with envy, as she had done so many times. Having someone to see her shine or not.

But this time there was someone to watch. Someone who could make her great dream of going to New York, being on Broadway and studying in NYADA become reality.

Of course there was no reason to be nervous.
