It was the Monday right after my date with Quinn and I was so freaking nervous to see Quinn. Not as nervous as before the date, obviously, but still pretty nervous because yeah she said that she enjoyed herself and yeah she gave me that pretty awesome kiss but I don't know how I'm going to ask her out again.

Do I fill her locker up with teddy bears or something? No, I can't get into her locker without the combination. Do I do the whole stand out her window with a boombox thing? That could work but I want my idea to more originality to it. Could I maybe get the glee club to help me put a little number together? If only I could get them to stop walking away from me when I walk up to them. Or maybe she just likes simplicity. I could just simply walk up to her like I did the first time... no that won't work.

Oh, I got it. I'm going to get my cousin that is a pilot to sky-write it. Yes that is exactly what I'm going to do. Now all I have to do is give my cousin a call and then I'll be all set.

With that I head into the school after the ten minutes of randomly standing in front of the school staring out into space like an idiot. Just as I'm about to walk into school the door just opens up and smacks me right in the face.

Just what I need. What a great way to start the day.

Ugh, this is what I get for not looking where I'm going although technically I was and it was the other person's fault. Maybe I should talk to them about using unnecessary force to open a door. And then not even saying sorry to the victim of said unnecessary force. By the time I turn around they are already gone so I just sigh in discontent and go to the nurse so I can get an ice pack for my nose, which I'm sure looks like it belongs on Rudolph by now. Hopefully it will turn back to all its naturally tan glory by the time I see Quinn today.

"Hey Rachel."

I guess today's just not my day.

"Oh hey Quinn."

"What happened to your nose?"

"Oh you know... just a door slamming into my face."

"Oh my god. Are you okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine I was just heading to the nurse's office so I can get an ice pack."

"I'll go with you. Just to make sure that you don't run into anything else."

"Are you teasing me Quinn Fabray?"

"Maybe."

God I love her.

"Aren't you going to be late to class?"

"I'd much rather be with you."

I restate my previous statement.

"Oh okay then." I can already feel my face heating up.

With that we head off walking to the nurses office and every time her hand brushes against mine I just want to hold her hand.

"So how have you been since Saturday?" I almost face palm myself because really ehy would I ask that to her. I just don't know what to say anymore.

"I've been good. I spent Sunday at church with my parents and then we went to get ice cream. I know it's kind of childish but it's been a routine ever since I was a kid. It was our way of family bonding when we weren't so much of a unit now it is more like a habit."

"Hey, you can never be too young for ice cream. Even me, although I eat Vegan ice cream of course with my Veganism and all."

She just beams at me. Just then we arrive at the nurse's office.

"Hi Nurse Patty."

She turns around to face me.

"Rachel, what happened this time?"

"A door ran into my nose. Can I have an ice pack?"

"Yeah, sure. Here ya go."

"Thanks Nurse Patty. See you soon."

"Not too soon I hope."

After that me and Quinn just walk out of there and when I look at her she looks like she is holding back a laugh.

"What?"

"Nothing it just sounds like you go in there often."

"Yeah, well that's what I get for being on the lower region of the social hierarchy."

She ends up slowing to a stop and turns around to look at me and by this time the halls are empty because most everyone is already in class.

"You'd be number one if I was in charge of the hierarchy."

She leans in and kisses me on the cheek and I feel like a fish because I keep flapping my mouth open and closed. When she stands back up to full height she just offers me her hand and what else can I do but take it.

"Come on, walk me to class."

All I can do is nod bacuse I am still speechless. I'm pretty sure if I open my mouth the only thing I would end up doing was confessing my love for her and it is a little too early in our newly developed relationship.

"Well we're here"

"Yup."

"Do you want to sit with me at lunch?"

"Yeah...wait is Kurt and Mercedes going to be there because every time I walk by them they start whispering to each other."

"Don't worry about them, they're just gossip queens of the century. They do that to me too so you aren't the only one. And to answer your question, no they won't be there. It will just be me and you."

"Good, I want you all to myself."

"Well you have me, whenever you want me." I can't believe I said that what is wrong with me.

"Oh trust me, I do. All. The. Time"

She seductively whispered that into my ear and it takes so much for me to not cream my pants. I can't hold in a moan when she kisses near my ear and walks into her classroom. This women will definately be the death of me.

I'm already extremely late for class so I have to hurry up which is pretty hard since the whole time I walk ther I'm in a daze. I only snap out of it when my English teacher yells at me for my tardiness.

I take my seat next to a curious Tina. I would probably say she is my best friend because she actually talks to me without feeling the need to get out of the room as soon as possible.

When the bell rings for our next class, I pack up all my things as fast as I can so I could make the day speed up and go to lunch already. When I'm already out the door, Tina grabs my arm to stop me.

Right. I forgot we had the next class together as well.

"Hey. Why were you so late to class?"

"I was just talking to Quinn."

"So you worked up rnough nerve to actually talk to her instead of just 'admiring from afar' as you like to put it."

"We actually had our first date Saturday."

Her eyes got really wide as soon as the clarification left my mouth. "Really!? That's awesome Rachel!"

"No need to yell Tina. But it is pretty awesome isn't it."

"So what were you guys talking about to make you about a half an hour late to class? And why are you holding an ice pack to your face?"

"I asked her if she wanted to sit at lunch with me. As for your second question, a door slammed into my face so my nose is kind of sore."

"Did she say yes?"

"What, you're not even going to comment on the door?"

"You gotta admit Rachel, this isn't really anything new. Now tell me, did she say yes or what?"

I just roll my eyes at her. "Well she didn't directly say yes vut she flirted with me so I'm going to take it as a yes and if she doesn't show up I'll just grovel in my sadness and disappointment."

"That's great Rachel I'm so proud of you." By that time we are already walking into our next class.

"So how are you going to ask her out on the second date?"

"I'm thinking sky-writers..."

QFRB

By the time lunch comes around Tina has already gotten all possible answers out of me. Now I'm basically vibrating in my seat at the lunch table waiting for Quinn. After a few minutes, I'm kind of doubting that she is even going to show up. That is when white sneakers enter my line of vision and then my eyes rake up to beautiful legs and a pleated Cheerio skirt and to the flawlessness that belongs to Quinn Fabray.

"This seat taken?"

I just shake my head like an idiot and she sits down across from me.

We eat in silence for a minute and I really don't know if it is awkward or not because I am too busy trying to think of something to say.

Why can't I just be like Spiderman, he always has something clever to say.

"So are you doing anything Friday?"

"No probably not. Why?"

"Will you do me the honor of going out with me on a second date on Friday?"

"Nooooooooooooooooo!"

"Oh, okay then." Uh oh now she just looks really confused.

"No, I didn't mean it like that. Of course I want to go out with you. Its just that I had like this really awesome elaborate plan that I was gonna use to ask you out."

I guess I'll just have to save it for later. Sigh.

"Oh well in that case, how about I ask you out this time and then the next time you ask me out you could just put you elaborate plan into play."

"No I can't do that. I have to wait so that way when it does happen, you will be thoroughly suprised."

"Ok then whatever you say."

The lunch bell rings and I've been so nervous in my previous classes that I completely forgot to throw away the already melted ice pack. So I should probably go do that right about now. When I get up, I look toward Quinn.

"I'll see you Quinn."

"Yeah see you."

I walk away, and by the time I look back Quinn is already gushing to Brittana, as I like to call them, with red cheeks. Santana rolling her eyes and looking like she'd be elsewhere and Brittany bouncing excitedly, much like Tina would have if she bounced... excitedly.
