New York

This was it ! Quinn and I finally graduated from McKinley High. We both were accepted into NYU and were going to live with Rachel and Kurt in New York. They graduated last year and were both studying music in NYADA.

I can't wait to start my classes at NYU with Quinn and to meet Rachel and Kurt after a whole year . When they were studying in McKinley High, all four of us were inseparable. Hell, we were in glee club together!

And now we would all be in New York, living our dreams. I'm excited to meet Kurt's boyfriend Blaine too. Kurt's been ranting about him for two months now. Apparently, they both attend NYADA together. Rachel totally approves of Blaine and thinks that Kurt and him are an adorable couple.

Rachel had told Quinn and I that she had been on a couple of dates in New York, but none of them worked out. She said that there were very few good guys from New York and that we had to look for guys who had come to NY from other states. Though, I think she was drunk when she told us that.

Of course, Quinn wasn't disappointed to say the least. Being the romantic, that she was, she still believed she would find someone there. Quinn was always in a relationship. I mean looking back, I can remember the faces of David, Simon, Rick, Neil and God knows who else !

This doesn't mean that I'm totally relationship prone. I guess, you could say that I'm looking for the right guy. I had been on a few dates here in Lima - a few guys from school and a few guys from the Asian community. But none of them seemed to last. Would I ever find a nice guy ? At least in New York?

My flow of thoughts were interrupted when my phone rang. It was Rachel. I quickly answered it.

" Hey Rach. What's up?" I asked.

"I just called to check if you and Quinn had packed everything?" She said.

"Oh yeah.We sent the boxes by mail yesterday. I hope they won't be too much." I answered with slight concern. I mean I didn't want Rachel and Kurt having to rent another apartment for our stuff.

"Oh come on, Tee! " she scoffed " We literally live in a four bedroom apartment. One room for each of us, remember? Anyway, when's your flight? "she asked.

" Well, it's at 8:45 in the morning on Saturday." I replied checking my planner.

" Wow. Just two more days.Can you believe it?"she asked, as if it just dawned on her.

"Yeah, I know." I replied.

"Ooh, by the way, did I tell you about our neighbours? "she asked perkily.

" I thought the four bedroom apartment next to ours was vacant? " I asked, confused .

"That was untill now, sweetie. So, I was headed out for my morning walk when I saw three guys moving in with their stuff.

Actually, let me rephrase that - I saw three super hot guys moving in with their stuff. And one of them is Asian . You two could totally hit it off! "she ranted excitedly.

"Because we're both Asian? Rachel, that's racist."I deadpanned .

"But have you seen this guy? I mean, he's like an Asian God ! Anyway, being the sweet neighbour that I am, I went to say hello . Apparently the Asian guy's name is Mike Chang. He shares your last name !" she exclaimed.

"Sweet ! " I said sarcastically.

" I know, right?"she continued, completely oblivious to my sarcasm. "He was super polite, too. A true gentleman. Your type, of course."she said.

I gave out a light chuckle.

"Anyway, there's another guy named Puck . He's an obvious player, but he's really nice . Except his mohawk .That needs to go." she said incredulously.

"Then there's the third guy who's name is Matt Rutherford . He was really cool too." she continued. "Mike and him are attending Julliard."she said.

"Dancers, huh?" I asked slightly amused.

"Yeah and there's another guy coming in tomorrow. His name is Finn. They're all living together. "she stated.

" Oh, that's nice." I replied.

"Yeah and so I invited them over on Sunday, so that we can all get to know each other better !" she exclaimed.

"Sunday? The day after we land? We have one day to unpack? " I asked , suddenly sounding tired.

"Don't worry, Tee . Kurt and I will help you guys." she reassured me.

"Yeah, sure . More like Kurt will throw all my clothes through the window because they're too 'gothic' and you would probably arrange my underwear according to their colour. " I replied snarkily.

"That was one time, Tina ! Besides cleaning and tidying up isn't a crime." she said defensively.

"Sure , whatever you say, Rach." I replied surrendering.

Just then I heard another buzz from my phone and looked up to see Quinn calling me.

" Rach, I gotta go. See you soon. You're picking us up at JFK, right??" I enquired.

"Yes, of course. See you soon, honey. Bye"

she said and ended the call.

I answered Quinn's call.

" Hey Q. Is everything alright? " I asked.

" Yeah, everything's fine. " she said nonchalantly. " I called to see if we were still on for our last movie night in Lima?" she asked.

"Of course. Hey, did you hear about our neighbours in New York? " I asked.

" Wait, I thought the apartment next to ours was empty." she said sounding surprised.

" Yeah well , quoting Rachel here ' three super hot guys are moving in with their stuff ' " I informed her.

" Really? Oh my gosh , did she invite them over ?" she asked, knowing Rachel all too well.

" Yuh-huh ! It's Rach, we're talking about. Apparently, there's one more guy flying in tomorrow too." I said.

" So, you're saying that we're gonna have four gorgeous guys as our neighbours? Oh my god, one guy for each of us ! "she said excitedly.

"Kurt has Blaine, remember? Anyway, one of the guys is Asian and Rachel is planning on setting us up." I told her.

" Oh really? That's great !" she said sounding genuinely happy.

" I mean I don't know, I haven't even met him yet. And you know that blind dates are not exactly my thing." I said sighing.

" Tina, you have to give it a try ! He could be the love of your life." she said dramatically.

"Yeah, I bet. Moving on, Rach told me that they're gonna come over on Sunday." I told her.

" Sunday?" she said amused " We only have one day to unpack then." she deduced.

" I know, right?" I said agreeing with her.

" But I guess, if it means hooking up with a cutie, then I'm all for it." she said dreamily.

I laughed at her 'hopeless romantic' sense.

" Oh, gotta go. Mom's calling."she said hastily.

" Kay. I'm coming by your house for movie night. Bye Q" I said ending the call.

I sighed. Just two more days. This is it.

New York, Here we come !
