Cassandra looked at Rachel, with a smirk on her face and mixed another two drinks. "You sure you don't wanna try it Rachel?"

"Why do you call me Rachel?" Now that Kurt was gone it didn't seem so embarrassing to ask.

"Because, that's how you introduced yourself to me." Cassandra didn't wait for Rachel to accept the drink, she just handed it to her.

"I know that, but you always call me Schwimmer and tonight you called me Rachel." Rachel felt stupid, but she wanted to know.

"You prefer Schwimmer?" Cassandra raised an eyebrow.

"No of course-" but she was interrupted.

"Then why are you complaining?" Cassandra just walked away and turned the music on, this time pretty loud so that she wouldn't have to talk to Rachel anymore. Rachel was confused and just watched her teacher, she sat on the couch and wondered about Cassandra's attitude. She watched her about 20 minutes when Rachel decided to drink the martini, first because she was curious and second she just wanted to feel the alcohol. She drank it, but she didn't like it, so she looked at the bar and found tequila, salt, lemons and shot glasses. When Rachel looked back up she couldn't see her teacher.

"So you like tequila?" She almost dropped the glass when she heard the voice behind her.

"Yea..." Cassandra smiled and continued her practice, so Rachel assumed she was okay with that. She cut lemons, put them on a plate, took two glasses and put them on the small table by the couch, then she got the tequila bottle and sat down. Cassandra didn't pay attention to Rachel, so she just took a shot. And another. After the second Cassandra came over and sat next to Rachel.

"Can I get one, too?" Rachel didn't know what to say, so she just nod and gave her teacher he glass and filled it. Rachel already felt dizzy, but she wasn't dunk, yet.

"Do you often invite your students home?" Rachel was curious.

"No." The answer was dissatisfying to Rachel.

"Why did you ask me?"

"I told you, you're a bad dancer and you need more practice." Cassandra took another shot.

"I was better than Kurt and you told him he was good."

"Yes. But he doesn't go to NYADA, does he?"

"No."

"See." Both took another shot now. Rachel was sure she would be drunk by the end of the night and surprised that Cassandra wasn't drunk yet. Or maybe she was and Rachel just didn't know.

"If you think I need more practice, then why are we drinking right now, instead of practicing?"

"I don't need to practice and you don't need to drink if you don't want to."

"I thought-"

"God." Cassandra put her glass down. "If you wanna practice then do so, and if you wanna talk, talk about something interesting."

"I'm sorry." Cassandra looked slightly annoyed, but she was staring at Rachel with a smirk, which made Rachel a little uncomfortable.

"What do you want to talk about."

"I don't know."

"We'll I don't know what I should talk with my teacher about other than school."

"How about...your boyfriend, or how you like New York, or stuff like that. That's what people talk about, you know."

"I don't have a boyfriend." Rachel took a shot.

"You don't sound sad."

"I'm not. I broke up with him today."

"I'm sorry."

"I'm not." Cassandra started laughing. Rachel liked her teacher more when she called her Rachel, smiled at her and actually laughed. A lot more.

"Why are you laughing?"

"Well most girls your age are very sad if they don't have a boyfriend and you're just so different. I like that." Rachel flushed, because its almost like she said she liked her.

"May I ask why you broke up with him?"

"I don't love him anymore."

"So now you and Brody?" Rachel was confused. "You guys seem to like each other pretty much and he's a handsome guy."

"No. Well yes he's handsome and I like him, but no that's not gonna happen." Rachel took another shot and so did Cassandra.

"Why not?"

"I'm not attracted to him."

"Most girl are. Actually every hetero girl in school is attracted to him. Maybe something wrong with you?"

"What's that supposed to mean?" Rachel actually didn't understand the hint and Cassandra saw that so she started laughing again. She took another shot and stood up.

"Never mind. We need more lemons." She walked over to the bar and cut some more. Rachel thought about what Cassandra said and took another shot, with the lemon Cassandra gave her, but before she got it she was interrupted. "Here we go." Cassandra returned with the plate. They took a shot and sat a few moments in silent, but then Rachel started giggling about nothing.

"Rachel are you drunk?"

"Noo."

"I think so. How many have you had?"

"I dunno, about six or seven and the margarita I guess."

"You don't drink often do you?"

"Noo. I'm not allowed to drink alcohol." She whispered the last part.

"I know." Cassandra smiled at her, obviously amused about Rachel being drunk that fast.

"May-I ask you somethin'?"

"You'll do it anyway."

"Why don't you like me?" Cassandra was caught off guard with that question.

"I can't answer that." Rachel took another shot. "I don't think you should drink anymore."

"I think you should tell me. I guess no one cares about what others think."

She took another drink and Cassandra couldn't tell her to stop or she would have to answer Rachel, so she just drank some of her own so that there wouldn't be so many lemons left. She's glad she just cut one lemon. Cassandra took a few shots, to prevent Rachel from drinking more, and felt that she's going to be drunk tonight.

"Why do you call me Schwimmer?" Again, she was caught off guard by Rachel's question, she didn't answer the last one and didn't expect Rachel to try again.

"You remind me of a student I once had." Actually she didn't want to tell Rachel that.

"Oh." Cassandra's was glad that Rachel didn't question her more about that. She didn't want to talk about her or her actions so she thought about something she could Rachel ask. "Why don't you like Brody?"

"I like him." Rachel took another shot.

"Don't you think you had enough to drink?"

"I had more than-enough. What do you care?" Rach was totally drunk by now.

"You're my student and-"

"Oh come on! You give me mean names and even if I'm one of your best students you tell me I need more practice." Cassandra didn't know how to respond to that, she just took two shots and was happy that there were only two more left.

"You didn't need to come."

"Yah like I'd dare to say no when you ask me-anything." Rachel laughed. Cassandra took a shot. She knew how she treated Rachel in school and she was sorry, but it was best this way. She took the last shot and was glad that there were no lemons left, because she was sure she couldn't drink one more herself.

"Why wouldn't you say no?" She was curious and she thought she could say anything, Rachel wouldn't remember anything the next day anyway.

"I dunno. You're intimidating, I guess."

"You're afraid of me?" It hurt Cassandra.

"Noo not afraid, more like too-shy t'say no." Rachel smiled, and Cassandra wondered why.

"What would you say no to?" Rachel looked sweet so drunk and when she smiled, and Cassandra almost didn't dare to look at her.

"Probably nothin'."

"If I'd ask you to kiss me." Cassandra didn't want to ask that, well she did want to know, but not ask Rachel. Rachel didn't seem to mind she just giggled.

"I guess no." Rachel leaned over and kissed her teacher. It was a sweet kiss, Cassandra liked how tender Rachel's lips were on hers, but Rachel stopped. Cassandra wondered why and Rachel just laughed. "See."

"Yah." Cassandra was slightly out of breath, the kiss didn't last long but caught her off guard. "I should bring you home."

"Noo... It's just getting fun. We should dance." Rachel stood up and walked a few steps. Cassandra saw how wasted she was and walked over to help Rachel. "I can walk!"

"Yea, well I don't think so and I should get you home now."

"Okay, but I can walk." Rachel ripped out of Cassandra's grip and would have fallen down, if Cassandra hadn't caught her. She leaned over Rachel and held her, but they were almost lying on the floor and Cassandra wasn't strong enough anymore to hold them both so she slowly laid down. At least didn't fell on the ground. But now she was on top of Rachel.

"This's awkward." Rachel breath was unsteady.

"Yes it is." Cassandra stood up before she did something she would regret in the morning. Rachel stood up with Cassandra's help and sat on the couch. She just sat there and lulled into sleep, while Cassandra walked around and looked for her phone. She called her diver and told him she was sorry for calling so late, but thanked him. Then she walked to the mirror turned the music off and got Rachel's clothes.

"Rachel?" Rachel's eyes were closed when Cassandra returned.

"I'm-not sleepin'"

"That's great, come on let's go down stairs." She helped Rachel up and walked with her downstairs. "Can you wait here for a second? I'll get your stuff." While Cassandra walked back upstairs to get Rachel's clothes, Rachel sat on the couch. Cassandra came back and had everything stuffed in Rachel's bag.

"Rachel?"

"Lemme."

"What?"

"..."

"Rachel you can't sleep here." But Rachel already fell asleep on her couch.

"God, Schwimmer, what's wrong with you..." Cassandra looked for Rachel's phone and keys, but just found the phone, she looked for Kurt's number and dialed it. "Hi Rach-"

"No it's Cassandra."

"Oh hi, why are you using Rachel's phone?"

"She's drunk and fell asleep on my couch!" Kurt started laughing. "That's not funny."

"It kind of is..."

"Anyway, are you home? I can't find her keys."

"Oh I'm sorry I'm not, but I can be there in... 30 minutes? Or you could just let her sleep on your couch." He laughed again, but Cassandra had thought about that too.

"She's my student don't you think that would be weird?"

"Yea, but as her teacher who gave her alcohol, though she isn't allowed to drink it, you kind of are responsible..."

"Alright! Would you please get her in the morning?"

"Okay. When?"

"As soon as you can." With that she hung up and was annoyed, because she still felt weird about her student sleeping over at hers. She quickly called her driver and told him doesn't have to come. She took Rachel's shoes off and put a blanket over her. "Well, at least my couch is big enough..." She walked over to the guest bathroom and turned the light on, in case Rachel needed to use it. When she walked over to her bedroom she turned the other lights of and closed the door behind her.

"God this girl is a pain in the ass." She kicked her shoes aside and took her clothes off and put them to the laundry. She fell in her bed and it only took her a few moments to fall asleep.

Cassandra's alarm went off at 8am. "Noo..." She put a cushion over her head and turned the alarm off. She stretched out and cursed the sun, for being up that early. She walked to her bathroom, took a shower and put a bodysuit, short armed, on.

"I need caffeine..." She walked in her living room and suddenly stopped when she saw Rachel. She totally forgot that that her student slept on her couch. Rachel was still sleeping but she obviously had to go to the bathroom last night, Cassandra saw that the lights were turned off. She looked over at Rachel and liked the view, Rachel looked sweet when she was sleeping.

"Gosh, I need to stop thinking like that!" She whispered, she didn't want to wake Rachel. Then she walked over to her kitchen and made coffee.

"That's ridiculous, I need to be quiet in my own home!" She still kept quiet, even if she didn't like it. Cassandra got two mugs and filled them with coffee and wondered, if Rachel drank milk or sugar in her coffee.

"Whatever." She got the coffee and walked over to the living room. Rachel was still asleep so Cassandra just sat on the other end of the couch and watched her sleeping. After, about half an hour and another coffee, Rachel moved. Cassandra just kept sitting there and drank her coffee.

When Rachel finally woke up she lifted the blanket over her head, shielding her eyes from the sun. Cassandra smiled about that, but was quiet so Rachel wouldn't realize that she was there. A few moments passed before Rachel decided to sit up and wrapped the surrounding blanket, then she saw Cassandra and almost fell off the couch.

"Good morning." Cassandra laughed about Rachel.

"G-good morning... I guess." Her voice was really quiet and she didn't look in her teachers eyes.

"You want some coffee?"

"Yes, thank you." Cassandra got up to get her a new mug. Rachel hectically looked around to find her cell phone.

"Oh my god!" It was already past 12pm. She also had two missed calls, one from Kurt and one from Finn.

"You want something in your coffee?" She heard Cassandra yelling.

"No thanks." She wrote Kurt a text.

-what's up? R.

-Cassandra called. Did u sleep there? I won't be home today, just call me and tell me everything. K.

-I can't remember! R.

-wow it's getting better ;) call me soon K.

-okay. R.

She put her phone on the desk.

"So you don't remember?" She jumped up and almost fell on the floor.

"I'm sorry what?"

"Here's your coffee."

"Did you peek on me?" Cassandra sighed.

"Well what do you think how long it takes to get some coffee?" Rachel flushed.

"Thanks." She wrapped the blanket around and took a sip.

"The coffee is great."

"I know." Rachel rolled her eyes.

"So you don't remember?" Rachel had hoped they dropped the subject, but she was obviously wrong.

"Yah. May I take a shower before I leave?"

"Sure." Cassandra was disappointed, that Rachel already wanted to leave. "But use my bathroom, the plumber is coming Monday to fix the guest shower."

"Okay." Rachel walked over to Cassandra's bedroom and left the door open. She was glad she had to use this bathroom, because she was really curious about her teachers bedroom.

She quickly looks around and was pretty impressed, it was elegant, most of the interior was white. Rachel opened the door to the bathroom and saw the major room. It was in white and had a big corner bathtub, a walk-in shower, two sinks and a toilet. She just closed the door, took her clothes off and walked in the shower. Rachel used Cassandra's shampoo, it smelled like cherry, and the shower cream like lemons. She liked the mix and put it mentally on her grocery list.

When she finished the shower she got out and wrapped a towel around her. Rachel forgot her clothes and didn't want to wear these again, because she slept in them.

"Damn..." Rachel walked out of the bathroom and-

"Ouch!"

"Ouh..."She ran into Cassandra and they fell down.

"God Schwimmer, use your eyes!"

"I'm so, so sorry..."

"Yea... Whoa... Rachel are you...naked, right now?" Cassandra closed her eyes and held her breath, because she knew the answer.

"Ah... My clothes are... I..." Rachel flushed, deeper than ever before in her life.

"Would you mind?" Cassandra had her eyes still closed.

"What?"

"Getting off of me, maybe?"

"Of course, I'm so sorry. Did I hurt you?" Rachel stood up quickly and wrapped the surrounding towel.

"I'm not made of porcelain."

"I... I'll just go put my clothes on." With that she walked out.

Cassandra was still on the floor and inhaled Rachel's scent, she knew Rachel had used her shampoo, but she didn't mind, because it smelled really sexy on her.

"What the hell... Stop it already!" She whispered to herself. She heard Rachel coming back and quickly stood up.

"Are you sure I didn't hurt you?"

"Yes I am."

"I'm sorry."

"Yes I get that." Cassandra sounded annoyed.

"I'll just leave. I... See you in class."

"Yep, bye." Cassandra could hear Rachel leave her apartment.

"God what is wrong with me?" She let herself fall on the bed. "Rachel Berry? Seriously?" She sighed and walked into the living room to clean up their coffee mugs. She needs to get over Rachel, without acting on it so she decided to go to a club tonight and maybe pick some girls up.

Since it was Saturday and she had no class on weekends, she just walked upstairs to practice.

When Rachel had left the building she immediately called Kurt and walked towards the subway.

"Hello."

"It's me Kurt!"

"Rachel! Great, tell me what happened! I'm sorry I didn't pick you up."

"Kurt, I don't remember last night, I mean I remember we were dancing and you left and I had a few tequila shots-" Rachel talked pretty fast.

"Oh, Rachel you shouldn't drink tequila you know that."

"Kurt, that's not the point! After you left I just remember drinking and watching her dance, after that...nothing."

"Did you wake up in her bed?"

"What?! No Kurt! Why would you even ask that!" She snapped at him.

"Well you seemed to like her pretty much."

"What? No. She hates me remember?" Rachel flushed and arrived the subway station.

"You wrote me a text last night that indicated different."

"I didn't write you anything."

"I think you did."

"I don't have time for that Kurt. I'll call you back in a few okay?"

"Whatever. But you definitely should read your texts." He hung up and she walked to the subway. Of course she had to stand, just like always. She looked for the text she wrote to Kurt last night and when she found it she flushed. Rachel looked around and hoped nobody saw the text or her flushing.

-Kurt July is hot. I know why I hate her I'm in love with my teacher Kurt! How Funny is that :D hahaha she's dancing and I wish I could dance like her Kurt I think im gay but I dunno I need to find out but kissing her was nice

When she finished reading what she wrote she was shocked and wrote Kurt another text.

-Kurt!

-just come here okay? K.

-u sure? R.

-sound like my best friend has a personality crisis so yea. I talked to Isabelle and she's fine with it. K.

-okay. Be there in 10. R.

At the next stop she changed the subway and drove to Kurt's office. She knew which building it was, but it was huge and Rachel didn't know how to find Kurt in there.

-where r u? R.

-I'm coming downstairs.

One minute later he was downstairs and smiled at her. "Hey!" Rachel smiled back and they hugged.

"Hi Kurt!"

"Wanna grab a coffee? Isabelle asked me to bring her one if we're going to Starbucks."

"Sure." Hey walked out of the building and at the end of the block was Starbucks. They walked a few steppes in silence, because Kurt waited for Rachel to begin.

"Kurt. I don't remember writing this text to you."

"I figured that."

"I never thought about... Being gay."

"Maybe you're not. I mean did you ever tried something like that?" They were best friends so they could openly talk about that.

"...no." They arrived the coffee shop and ordered two coffees, black and one cappuccino for Kurt. He paid for Rachel too.

"Do you have plans for tonight?"

"No, not yet, why?"

"Let's go out." He smiled at her.

"Last night was bad enough for one weekend Kurt."

"You don't need to drink, you should know your limit." He was still smiling at her.

"Please Rachel, pretty please!" They stopped walking and he jumped up and down in front of her.

"Kurt! The coffee!"

"Please, please, please!"

"Okay!" She knew, he was not going to stop begging until she agreed to go out with him tonight.

"Great." He stopped jumping and walked again.

"Where are we going?" Rachel wasn't really in the mood to go out, but it was still better than sitting alone in their apartment.

"I don't know yet. I'll find something good." They entered the building and walked to the elevator.

"What are you guys working on?" Rachel was really interested in Kurt's internship.

"Isabelle needs a new inspiration and I'm just trying to help her." Kurt laughed.

"Doesn't sound funny."

"But it is, you'll see you can help me if you want and after that we can go get ready to go out okay? If you don't have any other plans."

"Okay." Hey left the elevator when they were on the right floor and Rachel just followed Kurt.

"Kurt! Kurt! Kurt!" They could hear Isabelle yelling from down the floor. She sounded excited.

"I got your coffee." He handed it over when they met in the middle of the floor. Rachel saw the jealous looks from other employees when Isabelle greeted Kurt so nicely.

"This is my friend I told you about. Rachel. Rachel this is Isabelle Wright." Kurt introduced them and Isabelle offered her hand with a nice smile.

"It's nice to meet you Kurt already told me a lot about you, but he left out that you're so gorgeous." Rachel flushed.

"Thank you. It's nice to meet you, too."

"Call me Isabelle. Shall we go to my office?" It was a rhetorical question, so they followed her in her office.

"Kurt, I still have no inspiration, we should get the new collection off of our minds for the moment and do something fun, what do you think?" She smiled at Kurt and then she looked at Rachel and her smile grew bigger.

"You've something in mind?" Rachel was confused, it seemed to her that he already knew what his boss had in mind, because he had the same smile on his face and looked at Rachel and back to Isabelle.

"Let's go upstairs." Rachel still confused knew that Kurt knew what 'upstairs' meant, because she saw his smile grow.

"I like that idea."

"Alright let's go then." She took her coffee and walked out o her office.

"Kurt?"

"You're gonna love it Rachel." That's all he said and they followed Isabelle to the stairs.
