Chapter 8 – Westport
[07:03am] Rise and shine, sleeping beauty! :)
...
[01:47pm] Rach?
...
[08:12pm] God, I didn't text you all day
[08:13pm] I'm sorry, Quinn!
[08:13pm] I had such a busy day
[08:20pm] Oh I see how it is
[08:21pm] When you're stuck in boring classes you come to me
[08:21pm] Then when you don't need me you just forget about poor Quinn
[08:22pm] It's fine
[08:26pm] You're ridiculous
[08:29pm] I thought you would buy it!
[08:33pm] I guess we can finally say I'm starting to get to know New Quinn
[08:34pm] Maybe
[08:35pm] What's up?
[08:38pm] I dreamed of you again last night! You were putting Christmas lights all over my place!
[08:40pm] I was deeply disappointed when I woke up and didn't see any
[08:41pm] So I went out and bought some
[08:42pm] And now my whole house looks like a fairy tale!
[08:46pm] Send me pictures when you can! I bet it looks awesome!
[08:47pm] I have good taste even on your dreams :)
[08:47pm] I need to put up some Christmas decorations at my place too
[08:48pm] Although I'm not sure if my roommate is Christian or not
[08:50pm] You never talk about her
[08:53pm] We're not exactly close
[08:55pm] How did you end up moving in with her then?
[08:57pm] Just saw an ad at the bulletin board in the dorms
[08:57pm] Because really, anything is better than the dorms
[08:59pm] I felt kinda bad that NYADA didn't have dorms at first
[09:00pm] But everyone complains about theirs, so I guess it wasn't so bad to live out of campus from day one
[09:04pm] Well, it was amazing at first
[09:05pm] I got to meet some of my best friends there, and there were always parties going on around campus
[09:05pm] But it gets old quickly
[09:06pm] Specially when you work at night and just want a quiet night in on your days off
[09:10pm] Ugh, I can imagine it
[09:10pm] I don't know why but I always imagined you at a Sorority
[09:12pm] Ew no
[09:12pm] Maybe old Quinn
[09:12pm] New Quinn can't stand it, there are too many rules
[09:15pm] Well, old Quinn didn't really like rules either
[09:19pm] You're right!
[09:19pm] I like my place now though
[09:20pm] Although I still have to buy a lot of things to make it perfect the way I want
[09:22pm] I went shopping today
[09:23pm] But I didn't buy anything for the house
[09:23pm] I actually just had to buy gifts for my dads
[09:24pm] And also, shopping relaxes me
[09:28pm] Did you get me gifts too?
[09:30pm] Not yet! Do you need anything special?
[09:33pm] No, but I should get a lot of presents because clearly I'm the best gift of your life
[09:35pm] So full of yourself, Fabray!
[09:38pm] I was just kidding though, you don't need to buy me anything
[09:40pm] I might do it anyway
[09:41pm] I like giving gifts more than I like receiving them
[09:43pm] Such a weirdo
[09:46pm] Oh, shut it
[09:47pm] And what are you doing?
[09:50pm] Just finished homework and now I'll shower and get ready for work!
[09:51pm] Talk to you later?
[09:55pm] Sure thing :)
...
[00:21am] Hey, you still up?
[00:21am] Got caught up with work and couldn't take a break till now
[00:24am] Yeah, I'm awake
[00:26am] Wow! I thought you wouldn't be! It's late already!
[00:31am] I know... I can't sleep
[00:34am] Why is that?
[00:36am] I'm nervous about tomorrow
[00:37am] I'm seriously so nervous my stomach is unsettled
[00:41am] Oh... The big opening night
[00:43am] Yeah...
[00:48am] Why are you nervous though?
[00:49am] You've practiced so much! I'm sure you will do great, Rach :)
[00:52am] I don't know, I guess I'm just insecure
[00:55am] Where is that coming from? This is not the Rachel Berry I used to know!
[00:56am] Maybe that's the new Rachel
[00:59am] Oh, come on, Rach!
[01:01am] You are a great dancer and an even better singer
[01:02am] You literally have no reason to worry
[01:02am] I'm 100% sure you will slay this!
[01:03am] I could literally go all night telling you how good you are, it's not hard at all to see that
[01:06am] Well I mean, you can keep going if you want
[01:08am] Really Rach?
[01:12am] Idk, I'm just kinda needy I guess
[01:13am] Sorry
[01:16am] Hey it's okay, I'm not complaining
[01:21am] I just don't get why you feel this way
[01:27am] The other girl from the show got engaged tonight
[01:28am] I guess I could say I got kinda jealous
[01:32am] Is the other girl the lead?
[01:35am] No...
[01:37am] Who is it?
[01:39am] I am
[01:42am] I guess you can see now why she should be the one being jealous
[01:46am] I know, I'm happy with everything that I've achieved but idk...
[01:48am] Is work better than having someone who loves you waiting for you at home?But will I ever get what she has?
[01:52am] I mean, she can gain more experience and eventually she will get to be the lead in another play
[01:53am] Will I ever get what she has?
[01:54am] You're kidding me right?
[01:57am] Of course not
[01:58am] Who would date me?
[01:58am] I'm annoying and too loud and I manage to be conceited and insecure all at the same time
[01:59am] I can't cook to save my life and I work and study so much that when I get home the only thing I wanna do is fall asleep on my couch
[02:01am] Who would put up with all of that?
[02:04am] Anyone, Rach. Like, in a heartbeat! Anyone can realize how amazing you are!
[02:04am] You're the kind of woman someone goes to when they're looking for someone to spend their whole life with, not to just play around
[02:05am] You're kind to everyone, you're one of the funniest people I know, you are brave and you fight with all you have for the things you want
[02:05am] You're stunningly gorgeous, Rachel
[02:06am] And at the same time you can still be SO generous and modest that it's almost like you're blind to all your qualities
[02:10am] I really like it when you compliment me
[02:14am] I'm not kidding when I say I could go on all night
[02:16am] Why am I still alone and so lonely, then?
[02:20am] Maybe you're just not looking at the right places
[02:21am] Love can be right by your side, and you're too busy worrying about this kind of silly things that you can't see it
[02:24am] I really hope you're right
[02:28am] I'm always right :)
[02:32am] It's surprising how fast you can go from adorable to cheeky
[02:35am] One of my many qualities!
[02:38am] Thanks, Quinn
[02:40am] For everything you've done in these last months
[02:41am] I honestly think I couldn't do this without you
[02:44am] No need to thank me, really
[02:46am] I'm happy being here for you, Rach
[02:47am] You have no idea how happy it makes me that I'm the one you choose to open up to
[02:48am] To be the one you tell all your insecurities and secrets
[02:50am] Be the one you come to in the middle of the night
[02:51am] It's really an honor
[02:53am] I hope you remember all of that when you're giving your speech after getting your first Tony
[02:56am] I'll never forget you, silly
[02:59am] Good
[03:01am] Now, go to sleep
[03:02am] You don't wanna give the make up artists too much work to cover your dark circles
[03:02am] Also, I'm close to getting fired if I don't let go off my phone
[03:05am] lol okay
[03:06am] Goodnight, Quinn
[03:07am] And thanks again
[03:09am] Don't mention it
[03:11am] Goodnight, baby
