Author's Note: So, I've had a few reviews asking to write a story from Rachael and Blaine's perspective with this same format, but I couldn't really think of a story length thing, so I thought it'd be nice to write just a little glimpse of what goes on in a Rachael/Blaine journal entry. If you want an idea of around what time this would've taken place in the story, it would've been a little bit before invitationals. Part 2 of the last entry in the actual story will be up sometime tomorrow. : ) Enjoy.
Bold= Blaine
Italics= Rachael
Normal= Miss. Brown.
So, today in Glee club, we had to pick partners for duets, since Mr. Shue is dead set on us having duets, like, every month, so I wanted Blaine as my partner, since I need someone who can keep up with me both mentally and vocally (sorry Finn). Then, Kurt went after me with a pen and tried to stab my eyes out! He got very close, but since I've been taking jazz, tap, ballet, and gymnastics since I could walk, I was able to dodge his attack with ease.
So, Blaine, I thought we'd take this opportunity we have in this English class to decide what number we're doing for our duet. As you probably know since you saw us at regionals last year, and went with us to nationals, I have a tremendous amount of vocal and writing abilities. We could use this to our advantage to win.
Rachael Berry *insert star here*
No offense Rachael, but I never really agreed to being your partner.
Blaine
Oh, none taken! I knew you'd want to be my partner, since I was the only logical option, so I took the liberty of signing us up together on the sign up sheet. Kurt will find someone else to sing with I'm sure. Or he could sing with himself like last time. He's a pretty good sport about that kind of stuff.
So, I was thinking for our song we could do something romantic like All I Ask of You from the Phantom of the Opera! We have the perfect voices for it, and it'd be so magical! I'm sure we'd win!
Rachael Berry *insert star here*
Uh, right. But, this isn't a contest, right?
Blaine.
Any time we sing for the glee club it's a contest! If I don't sound my best every performance, than the other divas of the group will try to take over my place as rightful star, and that can't happen. Therefore, we have to be the absolute best for this performance. So what do you say? Phantom of the Opera?
Rachael Berry *insert star here*
Whoa there kids. So you guys are doing a duet in glee?
Miss Brown
Yes we are Miss Brown. But we have no time to explain the process of choosing the perfect duet to someone who doesn't have any experience in music, such as your self (no offense of course), so if you don't mind, could Blaine and I continue this conversation by ourselves?
Rachael Berry *insert star here*
Who said I knew nothing about music? I was in choir through high school. My school didn't have a glee club though. All I Ask of You is a little cliché don't you think? And won't it get Kurt mad?
Miss. Brown
I agree with Miss. Brown. Kurt gets upset by those types of things easily, especially after that party. It'd be best to not strike a chord with him.
Blaine.
Ok, well instead of All I Ask of You, how about There Once was A Man from Pajama game? That would be absolutely perfect, even though half the kids in our class have probably never heard it. Mr. Shue would be so impressed with our song choice, that he'd definitely give us the duet for regionals for sure!

Rachael… I hate to break this to you, but it might be best for your well being if I didn't sing a duet with you.
Blaine.
Why? Is it because I can be a diva? Because I can settle down for the sake of the performance!
Rachael Berry *insert star here*
No Rachael, it has nothing to do with you being a diva. I'm use to divas. It has more to do with the fact that Kurt said if we sing a duet together that he's going to feed you to Bessie the Sea Monster in the local lake.
Blaine.
There is no such thing as Bessie the Sea Monster.
Rachael Berry *insert star here*
If she doesn't exist, he'll just drown you in the lake. Trust me, he's pissed.
Blaine.
What a diva! How dare he try to steal my duet partner!
Rachael Berry *insert star here*
Your whole glee club is filled with divas. Things like this seem to happen a lot.
Miss. Brown.
You have no idea.
Blaine
