"What?" Rachel asked, trying to grasp what the other girl had said. "You've known?" Alison nodded "How long?" Rachel asked

"A few months. It wasn't difficult to figure out Rachel. The late night calls, the lies about where you were after rehearsals." Alison said, Rachel nodded as if in understanding.

"But you never said anything, why?" Rachel asked

"Because I didn't want to lose you." Rachel was taken aback by this "I thought that even though you were seeing her, you still came back to me. I didn't want to lose that. "

"You should've said something Ali" Rachel said, getting up to move to the window

"And bombard you with what I knew? That would just push you away more. Rachel sweetie.." Alison moves to stand beside Rachel. "I love you so much, I don't want to lose you." She moves to touch Rachel "So can we just put this behind us and move on?" Alison asks, Rachel turns to look at her with disbelief in her eyes.

"I've cheated on you Ali, why do you want to be with me?" Rachel asks

"Because I love you Rach, I want to be with you. And I mean it's not like you love her." Rachel turns back to face the window. "Right?" Alison asks.

'I'm sorry' is all Rachel could mutter to the other girl. Alison retreats taken aback by this new revelation.

"I thought.. I didn't.. How could you?" Alison mutters and Rachel moves to her.

"I'm so sorry, but I can't help what I feel for her. I care for you and I hate that I'm doing this to you, but I love her." Rachel says.

"I have to go" Alison says moving to the door, grabbing her purse from the couch. "I love you Rachel, but I can't do this anymore. I'm sorry" Alison leaves, shutting the door behind her.

Rachel stays rooted to her spot by the window. She'd lost two of the most important people in her life in less than 24 hours, Rachel was sure there was some kind of award for that. She tried to think of a time where it didn't matter if she was with anyone, when all that mattered was being on Broadway. She shook her head of that thought, because even though Rachel might not admit it to anyone, that was the time in her life she was most lonely. So instead she thought of the times when she didn't feel lonely. Images of a smiling Quinn came to mind, the thought of kissing Quinn, the feel of her lips on Quinn's. It had been just 10 hours since she'd seen Quinn, and she was already missing the blonde. Rachel couldn't help wonder if maybe the blonde was missing her just as much, would she want Rachel back? She grabbed her phone, dialling the number she knew by heart. It rung a few times before a little voice picked up

"Hello?" asked the little girl, Rachel presumed to be Beth

"Hi Beth, my name is Rachel, is your mom there?" Rachel asks

'Beth what have I told you about answering the phone?' came from the other end. "Hello?" Quinn says

"Quinn, hey" Rachel says, holding her breath, waiting for Quinn to hang up. There's silence on the other end

"Rachel" Quinn says "What do you want?" Quinn says, flinching at her words. She didn't mean for them to come out with the slight venom of the old Quinn from high school.

"I'm sorry to bother you, but I was... I was wondering if you'd like to have dinner with me?" Rachel asks, Quinn sighs. She was weak against Rachel's determination, even if there was a bit of uncertainty in the brunette's voice.

"Rach, I don't know" Quinn started, Rachel soon interrupted

"Please Quinn, I'd really like to see you." Rachel says, pleadingly.

"Okay, where?" Quinn says, sighing. Why was she so helpless when it came to the brunette?

"Mario's, at 8?" Rachel asks, Quinn nods

"Okay" Quinn hangs up before Rachel had the chance to say goodbye. It hurts the brunette but at least Quinn spoke to her, and agreed to have dinner. Rachel took this as a good thing, immediately going to work to figure out how she was going to get Quinn back.

7 o'clock at the Fabray house was crazy. First Quinn couldn't figure out what to wear, second the babysitter couldn't make it. Quinn was close to calling Rachel and cancelling when her cell phone rang. It was Santana.

"Hey San, I'm kinda busy. Can you make it quick?" Quinn says wobbling on one foot trying to get her jeans on with the phone between her shoulder and jaw

"Whoa Q, what's up with you? You're on speaker by the way, Brit's here." Santana says

"Hi Quinn" Brittany says waving.

"Honey she can't see you" Santana says

"Oh, right. Well Hi anyway Q" Brittany says

"Hi Brittany. Nothing's up, I have to be somewhere in an hour and nothing is going right!" Quinn says

"Okay calm down, tell me what's wrong." Santana says. Quinn grunts as she trips over her shoe

"Quinn, are you okay?" Brittany asks, practically screaming into the phone

"Yeah I'm fine. Just tripped. Anyway, I'm going out with Rachel in an hour and I have no idea what to wear. Plus on top of that, the baby sitter can't watch Beth tonight." Quinn says as she continues searching through her clothes for something to wear.

"Okay Q, here's what's going to happen. Brit and I will be there in 10 minutes. We'll find you something to wear and we will watch Beth for you, okay?" Santana says, and Quinn wonders when her bitchy friend from high school became so caring and considerate.

"Thanks S, I really appreciate this." Quinn says

"Yeah yeah, just don't be back too late Juno. Brit and I have an early day tomorrow and I don't want you messing with my sleep cycle for your little date" Santana says. Quinn sighs and rolls her eyes, there's the Latina Quinn remembers.

It's 8 and Quinn's standing outside the restaurant. It looks closed by the fact that there weren't much lights on inside, she was just about to leave when the door opened and a man in a suit was holding the door open for her

"Miss Fabray?" The gentleman asked

"Yes" Quinn says, a bit nervous

"Please come with me, miss Berry is waiting for you" The man said, motioning for Quinn to go ahead.

Quinn walked in, noticing the tables and chairs were stacked. All except one, which stood in front of a stage that had a microphone with a single spotlight shining onto it. The man motioned for Quinn to sit at the table. She sat down, looking around for Rachel. She was about to ask the gentleman where Rachel was, when the woman she was looking for made her way onto the stage. A band followed behind her, Quinn knew the band immediately. It was Faber Drive, she remembered she'd told Rachel she loved them once.

"Miss Fabray, this song is for you." Rachel says before turning around, motioning for the band to begin.

Tonight a candle lights the room,
Tonight it's only me and you,
Your skin like gravity
Is pulling every part of me,
I fall, you and I collide

Quinn puts her hand over her mouth, this was her favourite song and here was Rachel singing it to her.

What if I stay forever?
What if there's no goodbye?
Frozen for a moment here in time,
If you tell me the sky is falling,
Or say that the stars collide,
The only thing that matters in my life,
Is you and I tonight

Our eyes close the candle burns away,
But I know the fire still remains
This love is all we need
We fit together perfectly,
I fall, you and I collide

I wanna see this through
I wanna give it all to you

Tonight a candle lights the room
Tonight, it's only me and you, oh

What if I stay forever?
What if there's no goodbye?
Frozen for a moment here in time,
Yeah,
If you tell me the sky is falling,
Or say that the stars collide,
The only thing that matters in my life,
Is you and I tonight
Tell me the sky, forever
Just you and I tonight
Tell me the sky,
What if I stay?
Just you and I tonight

Quinn was in tears by the end of the song, Rachel thanked the band and got off stage. She moved over to Quinn

"Thank you for coming. To be honest I didn't think you would" Rachel says, seeing Quinn's tears she moves to wipe them away.

"How did you get them to come here?" Quinn asks motioning to the band now packing up.

"A cast mate is from Canada, he grew up with the lead singer. So I called in a favour." Rachel says shrugging.

"Rachel this was amazing, I can't believe you remembered" Quinn says, pushing back more tears

"I remember everything about you." Rachel says looking down, blush spreading across her face.

Quinn moves to lift Rachel's face to meet her eyes "Why did you do all this?" Quinn asks

"Because I choose you Quinn, I love you and I can't not be with you." Rachel says trying to hide her own tears.

"I love you too Rachel" Quinn says pulling Rachel in for a kiss.

""I fall, you and I collide" Rachel says repeating the song lyrics

"It's you and I tonight" Quinn says, pulling Rachel back in for another kiss.
