Rachel Berry zipped up her suitcase and sat down. She was excited, she would be going to London and see Tina. Tina and Rachel were not friends but the fact that Tina was willing to invite her into her home was enough for her.
She was about to get up and leave with there was a knock on her wooden front door. "Come in!" She called. She was too comfortable in the leather chair to get up if it wasn't necessary.
The door opened with a slam. Two men, one with neatly combed hair and a red-cheeked face and one with dar black hair and converse sneakers, made their way into the luxury apartment.
"KURT! BLAINE!" Rachel didn't care about her recent laziness, she ran up to Kurt and gave him a giant hug before doing the same to Blaine. "What are you two doing here?"
"Well, Blaine and I heard that you were going to London and we just had to show you this before you left." Kurt flashed a diamond ring on his finger.
Rachel admired the stunning cut of the platinum ring. "Congratulations! So are you guys going to get married in Massachusetts or one of the over equal-marriage states so you can have an official ceremony or-"
Blaine cut her off. "Here." He said plainly. "Gay marriage became legal in New York at about 10:30 this morning."
Kurt beamed. "Now I can finally have the life I've always wanted in the place I've always wanted!"
Rachel smiled.
"Oh, we saw Jimmy's Ford before it closed. You were absolutely phenomenal! I don't see why it got closed down. It was true Broadway gem. Quite a gem of a flop! What a flop it was!" Kurt gushed.
Blaine nodded. "Quite a spectacle. It was really cool how you were able to hold that C# at the end of the finale piece as long as you did."
Rachel blushed.
Kurt looked at his watch. "Well we should probably be going now, do you need any help with your bags?"
Rachel nodded. "Thanks."
As the three went down in the elevator, Rachel received an email on her phone. She looked at it, it was from that "Sally" something or other: Maybe the world would be a better place if you had been illiterate."
Rachel didn't get angry. She was happy and nothing that Sally or anyone could say would ruin it for her.
Hi guys, sorry for such a short and badly-written chapter. I just kinda wanted this to be quick so I can get to the chapter where Rachel meets Britain. An important announcement: Gay marriage did become legal in New York today at 10:30am. Congratulations! I am straight but I'm supportive of gay marriage. Well anyway, I promise the next chapter will be better. Bye.
