"Charlie, sit still" Rachel urged, as she wiped over his closed eyes, successfully dragging loose pieces of slushie along the wet toilet paper.

"The water is freezing" Charlie whined, his body shaking in a short shiver, feeling the wet paper now scrap down his cheek, and under his nose. "I can't be that covered with that stuff" Charlie's eyes slowly opened, he watched Rachel through out the now, red paper before going into a stall and grabbing more. "Aren't you going to like...take it off of you?" Rachel looked up at Charlie, her eyes roaming over his face, before meeting his hazel eyes, her lips instantly quirked up into a smile.

"it's not in my eyes, I'm good, you on the other hand, with your floppy bangs it kept dripping, must have been killer" Rachel bit her lip, continuing to smile, she wiped the extra water that stayed on Charlie's face, his eyes, never looking away from Rachel's. He ran his hand through his bangs back before it flopped back down on his forehead. he rolled his eyes at his own hair, before locking with Rachel's brown eyes again. The corner of his lip quirked up when Rachel chuckled at the blonde's action, before looking down, throwing out the paper again.

"Well if it counts...red looks good on you" Charlie said in a soft voice, Rachel immediately looked up into Charlie's eyes before letting them drop again to look down at the bathroom counter, a light blush coated her cheeks.

"Shut up" She mumbled, brushing a piece of her hair behind her ear. Her smile dropped as soon as she looked down at her ruined shirt and pants. "I just wish I brought extra clothes today" Charlie's small smile soon turned to a smirk

"I have extra clothes in my gym bag" He said, slipping off the counter, and picking it up, placing it where he sat. He pulled out a white v-neck t-shirt and a sweater he always kept in his bag for rainy days. He turned to Rachel with the clothing and handed them to her. "I can't help much with pants, but at least it's something right?" Charlie shrugged as another blush spread on Rachel's face.

"Charlie I can't-"

"No, I insist" Charlie smiled gently as soon as Rachel met his eyes again. he nodded once, already seeing the uncertainty behind Rachel's eyes. "Please" Rachel licked her lips before she nodded.

"Okay...I'm just...gonna.." Rachel moved slowly toward a stall, as Charlie's mouth formed a "o" before he pointed back.

"I can wait outside, I'll...you..so..yeah" Charlie grabbed his gym bag and turned on his heel, leaving the washroom. He leaned back on the wall beside the door, and leaned his head back. He stared at the ceiling, the face of the brunette flashing in his mind, as a smile slowly spread on his face. he shut his eyes and smiled with his teeth, and dropped his head forward, a small laugh slipped from his mouth, and he felt his heart beat happily.


Rachel waved at Charlie from the top of her steps, and opened the front door of her house, watching the reflection in the window beside the door, Charlie's red car back up, and drive down the street before she finally stepped into the house. She had gotten Charlie to drop her off at home so she could take a shower, and made sure that he hadn't taken a picture of her at any point with his phone. He insisted that she was "too cute" in his t-shirt and sweater which were a bit big for Rachel, while the brunette thought she looked like a homeless person with leather pants.

She set her bag down in the hallway and took off her shoes, she was halfway down the hallway when her phone buzzed, she immediately opened the message from Charlie and groaned at the photo of her standing beside the passenger car door. her phone buzzed again and she rolled her eyes at the winking face Charlie had added. She replied simply with a "you suck, and stop texting while driving, I'm not going to answer you" and put her phone on sleep.

With on foot on the bottom step, she froze when she heard a cough from her left. She looked over to her father, Leroy who sat at the dining table, he put the newspaper he had been reading on the table as he smirked at her.

"I like your clothes" Leroy said in amusement, as Rachel scoffed.

"We had an incident!" Rachel defended as her father held up his hands.

"Hey, as long as he didn't deflower my baby, I'm all fine with your play fights" Rachel rolled her eyes, and continued up the steps. "Take a shower and wear something nice, your dad is on the way home and we are going out for dinner" Rachel hummed at her father's words, her mind preoccupied with a special blonde.


half an hour had past before Rachel stood in the mirror, she wore a black dress that cut just above her knees, she turned from side to side, making sure she looked good, before she left her room. Her hair was curled and laid on each of her shoulders, with her bangs swiped to the side, her make-up was light, she was going for a more natural look, it wasn't like she had anyone to impress. She smiled as soon as she locked his with her dad.

"So I heard you came home in a boy's clothing?" Hiram tilted his head and Rachel's smile dropped. her eyes shifted to her father's and she glared.

"You just had to tell him didn't you?" her father shrugged, before he let out a laugh. Rachel rolled her eyes before she walked to the front door. "Can we hurry up and go, before I start ignoring you people?" Her dad followed her father in a laugh before he nodded. She sighed, and opened the door, before she turned back and pointed at both fathers. "And not a word in the car" She keep eye contact for another second before she turned, hearing her father's laughing harder behind her. She smiled softly at the sound of it.

As soon as the car parked, Rachel was out of the car, she looked up at the restaurant and her shoulders slumped.

"Breadstix? Really dad?" She turned just as her dad walked past her, he placed his hand on her back, guiding her to move into the restaurant.

"Yes, out of all the year's we have lived here, I have never truly tried this place"

"But teenagers go here" Rachel mumbled, she looked up at her dad once again. "Like people from school"

"It's a Monday night, sweetie, I doubt any of your friends are going to be here" He waved his hand, dismissing her worries, as he asked the waitress for a table of three. As soon as they were seated, Rachel rose the menu to cover her face.

"Rach" her father sighed, and Rachel hmmed from behind her menu. Leroy looked around, scanning each face, trying to match it from the latest class list that was shown in Rachel's past year book. Scanning through a little bit more than half the restaurant he spoke. "Rachel, no one seems to be-" His eyes squinted at the floppy blonde hair, before his eyes widened. "Is...Is that Charlie?"

Rachel dropped her menu immediately, her eyes looked at her father, before she followed his line of sight, her heart skipped a beat as she caught the sight of Charlie, sitting at a table, alone, eating a plate of pasta, his finger tapping on the table. Rachel smiled, a light shade of pink already spreading on her cheeks.

"It is" Hiram turned, and scoffed. "He's not good enough for my baby" Rachel and Leroy both turned to him.

"Hiram, He's perfect for her" Leroy nudged his lover's shoulder, giving him a scolding look and shaking his head in disapproval.

"He's real nice daddy, I promise" Rachel said, a wide smile plastered on her face. "And he's really cute, he's got the most gorgeous eyes" Her leg bounced in excitement. "And he smells amazing daddy, you would most defiantly approve if you got to meet him!" Leroy brightened up at Rachel's words.

"That's perfect, Rach, go ask him to join us" Rachel's leg froze under the table and her smile faltered.

"What? No I can't do that" Hiram leaned back, and crossed his arms over his chest.

"Why not, aren't you two sort of a thing? He doesn't seem to be with his parents, just ask him to join us, he can even bring his plate of whatever he's eating" Rachel felt her heart starting to beat rapidly in her chest.

"I um...I...Okay.." She mumbled, taking a deep breath before sliding her chair back, she stood, and wiped the wrinkles out of her dress. She looked up, her eyes keeping on the boy, who stared down at his food, his plate half way done. She made it five steps before a tall brunette walked up behind him, dragging her hand from Charlie's right shoulder to his left, she leaned down, giving his cheek a lingering kiss, before her hand landed on his, tugging it softly.

Rachel froze in the middle of the restaurant, her breath stuck in her throat as she watched the action. Her eyes looked between the two, watching as Charlie shook his head, saying something, she was too far to hear, and pointed at his food before he looked up. The women, pouted and rubbed his arm sensually, she leaned down and kissed his cheek again, before he shook his head and stood, up. Rachel's heart squeezed painfully in her chest, as she watched the brunette that was just an inch or two shorter than Charlie kiss the back of his neck, as he pulled out money and dropped it on the table. He turned to the brunette before he started walking toward the front door.

Rachel instantly turned on her heal, raising her right hand to block her face as she speed walked straight to father's table, she sat down and rose the menu covering her face once again, her heart sank as she heard the chime of the resturant door's opening and soon closing. She dropped her menu and dropped her head into her left hand. Leroy and Hiram looked at each other, before looking at Rachel with sympathy. With five minutes of silence, Leroy spoke up, he placed his hand on top of Rachel's that she laid on the table.

"Rachel, we could leave if you'd want" he said, softly, as Rachel breathed deeply, blinking back her tears and ran her hand through her bangs. She sat up and shook her head, sniffing once.

"No...No I...I'll be fine...It's all good" Rachel said, nodding as if she was trying to make herself believe her words along with her father's. her eyebrows scrunched together momentarily as she thought back to the afternoon. He kissed me. Rachel shook her head, as if erasing the memory from her brain as she looked between her father's. "Shall we order?"


That night, her father's didn't question as their daughter has just gone to bed when they got home. They let her lay in bed, feeling hopeless as to not knowing how to fix their broken daughter's heart. As much as she would deny it, they knew she was hurting.

Rachel had wiped off her make up already and gotten into her pajamas's and laid in bed, staring at the ceiling, trying her hardest not the let the tears fall. She clenched her eyes as she felt her phone ringing on her night stand. She hesitated before she reached over, confusion filled her as Finn's name was blinking on her screen. She hit the answer button and placed it to her hear.

"Rachel...Thank god, listen babe, I can't stop thinking of you, I know I hurt you and I'm sorry, You were never a slut babe, you looked smoking, babe I'm so sorry, please, please take me back, I'm better, I've changed" Rachel closed her eyes, at Finn's desperate voice, his words playing in her head while she thought over the dinner. She sighed. "Rachel...Rachel please say someth-"

"Yes"

"Wha-"

"Yes, we can try again, Finn"
