Chapter One: Kisses and Misses

Present Day

Rachel Berry sat up in the bed, pulling away from Quinn Fabray, her frenemy who she had somehow found herself making out with for the past half-hour.

"I can't do this." Rachel blurted out.

Quinn sat up now too. "Why not?"

Rachel found Quinn pulling her closer, their lips brushing together. Quinn's lips tasted like sweet lip gloss, cotton candy perhaps, but Rachel forced herself to move away from the pretty blonde next to her.

"I'm with Finn." Rachel replied.

"Like that matters to you, Rachel."

"But it does." Rachel whispered. "I love you, but…"

"If you loved me, you'd break up with him and be with me!" Quinn sobbed.

Rachel hated to see Quinn cry. "Sweetheart…"

"Don't call me that!" Quinn demanded, pushing Rachel away. "Get away from me!"

"I love you, Q…"

"No, you don't!"

Rachel looked into Quinn's eyes. Even though they were wet from tears and the mascara was running, they were still the most beautiful shade of hazel Rachel had ever seen. They kissed briefly and tenderly, Quinn's tears mixing in with the taste of her lips. It tasted so bitter…so sad…so wrong.

"I want you…but I don't think this will work out. We should take a break."

"We were never together, RuPaul." Quinn snapped, rolling over onto her side, her back towards Rachel.

Rachel felt a single tear roll down her cheek. She didn't think she and Quinn would ever end up like this. Then again, true love always springs from true hate… But at that moment, Rachel knew what had to be done. With one last look at the lovely girl crying on the bed, Rachel walked away.
