Upstairs Rachel just saw two big doors and wondered what was behind them, because Isabelle and Kurt were so excited about it. Isabelle walked to the door.
"You're one of the few people who ever got in here." She smiled at Rachel, who felt really honored by this and got as excited as the other two were, although she still had no idea why. Isabelle pushed the doors open and Rachel was stunned. It was the biggest wardrobe she's ever seen. It was more like a boutique and she loved it. Isabelle clapped her hands when she saw Rachel's reaction.
"I told you, you'd like it." Kurt smiled at her.
"She should try something on."
"No, no I can't." She was flattered that Isabelle suggested this but she couldn't.
"She's totally right Rachel." Isabelle was already looking trough some of the most beautiful outfits Rachel has ever seen.
"Here. That one would fit you perfectly." Kurt's eyes widened, when Isabelle returned with a purple dress. It was knee-long and strapless. "Rachel, you need to try it on. Please. It is from my last summer collection and I think it would look great on you."
"I...o-okay." Rachel took the dress and Isabelle pointed to another door, so she walked in and changed. There was a mirror inside and Rachel loved the dress. She looked stunning. It knocked in the door and she opened Kurt didn't look he just gave the perfect high heels to the dress. Rachel put them on and walked outside, Isabelle and Kurt stood in front of her.
"You. Look. Amazing." Kurt's eyes widened when he saw her.
"Kurt she's gorgeous, why didn't you tell me?" Rachel looked on the ground by the compliment, she was sure she couldn't flush anymore.
"Isabelle, it's beautiful."
"You are! You should try on some more!" Rachel smiled and walked over to the major mirror in he room, while Isabelle and Kurt walked around and looked for something else for Rachel to try on. They discussed a few things but Rachel didn't pay attention to them. Soon Isabelle and Kurt came over to her and had a few other dresses and shoes for her to try on. They always complimented her and she loved each dress, after awhile Rachel realized Kurt took photos of her when she looked at herself in the major mirror.
"Do you take pictures?"
"Of course Rachel! You look stunning."
"Thanks." She smiled at him and changed into the last dress is was olive green with a black belt in her hips, also strapless, skintight and ended right above her knees, but comfortable. Kurt added a black pair of wedges and it looked amazing together.
"Wow." Isabelle just sat there and looked at Rachel in awe, Kurt got two chairs for them to be more comfortable, while Rachel was changing. "You look hot."
"She's right Rachel, if I weren't gay..." Isabelle and Rachel started laughing about that.
"Yes, and if I were gay the same." Now all three of them were laughing. They just sat there and Rachel looked trough all these dresses for awhile, before she changed back into her own outfit again.
"Isabelle, thank you so much for showing me this. I really enjoyed it." They smiled at each other.
"No need to thank me, you're beautiful, you should wear beautiful dresses. Kurt I think I got inspired what do you think?"
"I agree." Rachel smiled shyly. "We should go downstairs again and put something together."
"Yes." So they walked downstairs again into Isabelle's office, Rachel saw that there were only a few people left on the floor and she realized, it probably took quite some time upstairs. She looked on her phone and it was almost 5.30pm, but she didn't care, she had nothing better to do anyway and it was fun today with Kurt and Isabelle.
"Rachel you should work something out, too." Isabelle nodded at Kurt's suggestion. "I'm sure back in Lima you made some sketches."
"Wonderful idea Kurt, it isn't that hard just try it. Ill be right back." She smiled at Kurt and Rachel and left the office.
"Oh my god Rachel!" Kurt turned to her. "These are all her private dresses and she told you to try them on! And you looked amazing I can't believe it! You have to tell your dads, you can show them the pictures you looked so beautiful!"
"Kurt! Kurt! Come down!" She laughed, because Kurt was talking so fast she missed some words.
"If you won't send them, I will."
"Alright. Kurt, thanks."
"What for?"
"Bringing me here. Without you I would never had the chance to wear those beautiful clothes." She hugged him.
"Without you I would never had the chance to dance with Cassandra July! So I guess we're even." He smiled and Rachel flushed by the mention of her teacher.
Isabelle came back, all happy like the last three hours and stepped next to Rachel.
"How about you take the rest of the day off and continue on Monday, Kurt?"
"Are you sure?"
"Of course you helped me so much, by bringing your wonderful friend here in."
"Great." He stood up. "See you on Monday then." They walked out of the office to the reception and hugged each other.
"Enjoy your Saturday night Kurt."
"I hopefully will." Isabelle turned to Rachel.
"Rachel, thanks for coming in, it was wonderful to meet you."
"It was great to meet you, too and thank you so much for letting me try on your own clothes. They are beautiful." Isabelle's smile grew big.
"Yes, that's why I want you to have these." Kurt's jaw dropped when he saw Isabelle getting four white boxes and handing the to Rachel.
"I...thank you so much, but I can't take these... It's too much." Rachel didn't believe her eyes.
"No it's not, you inspired me, that's worth much more than theses clothes." She smiled and refused to take the boxes back.
"Thank you. I don't know what to say."
"You don't have to say anything, but if you ever change your dreams about Broadway, you can always come here and work with Kurt." Kurt smiled, he knew Rachel would never ever change that dream.
"Thank you."
"You and Kurt got plans tonight?"
"Well..."
"Oh yes we do Rachel!"
"Well then, you two, enjoy your evening. Good night." She hugged them one last time and walked off to her office. Rachel stood there for a moment with the four boxes in her hands.
"Kurt, this is too much." She whispered.
"No it's not, if you inspired her and she gets an idea for the next collection because of you." Kurt took to of the boxes and walked toward elevator, Rachel followed Kurt. Outside of the building were a few cabs, so Kurt opened the door for Rachel.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome." They put the boxes in the middle and told the driver where they wanted to drive. "I wonder which ones she gave you." Kurt smirked at Rachel.
"You can wait until we're home Kurt. I'm sure they'll still be in there."
"Aren't you curious?" He frowned.
"Of course I am, but I though that all of them were beautiful."
"I think in one of those boxes is the black one." He teased her but she just shook her head and smiled. When the cab driver pulled over and let them out, Rachel paid him, he wished them a good night and drove away.
They walked upstairs into their apartment.
"Can we look now?" He just waited for Rachel to put the boxes on her bed and jumped right next to them. Rachel walked over to the refrigerator to get some soda.
"Like I could keep you from looking." She laughed and when she turned around and saw Kurt peaking she laughed even harder. "Okay, okay open them."
She quickly walked over to her bed, she was curious which ones Isabelle had chosen.
"See, I told you it's the black one!" Kurt held it high and had a bright triumphal smile on his face.
"Kurt!" Rachel looked shocked.
"What is it?" Now Kurt was concerned that something happened to the dress.
"She didn't just have me the dress, the shoes you chose for it are in the box too!"
"Wow."
"I told you it is too much to take!"
"Rachel she gave it to you and it's rude to reject a gift. Just appreciate it." She just shook her head and Kurt folded the dress and put it back in the box. "Which box next?"
"Let's just open them all, okay?" Kurt opened one and Rachel opened the other two.
"Wow. She chose the right ones."
"Yes she did. Kurt I don't think I can keep them..."
"Rachel. You're getting boring just accept them." Rachel frowned. Isabelle put the purple and the olive green one in the boxes and a beautiful white dress.
The white one was knee-long, with a red belt and the black one was also strapless, but it was longer than the others, slightly over her knees and low-backed. All of them were beautiful.
"Oh god Rachel, you have to wear one of them tonight!" He didn't look at her, his eyes were still focused on the clothes. "You think she put to each of them shoes?" Rachel didn't know, so they checked and confirmed Kurt's guess. "Wow. I don't know what to say."
"Me neither."
"So, which one are you going to wear?"
"What? I can't wear them!" Kurt was confused.
"Why not? What else should you do with them?"
"Alright then, which one?"
"We had a good summer so you're pretty tan, I think you should wear the olive one." He held it up. "And I'll make your hair." There was his bright smile again.
She changed into he right underwear and a tights before she put the dress on, Kurt helped her with the zipper on the side. When she was dressed, except the shoes Kurt started with her hair. He was quick, because he just straightened it and it looked great this way.
"What are you wearing?" Kurt smirked and walked over and grabbed some clothes, walked into the bathroom and came back after two minutes. "Wow Kurt you look great!"
"Well, I know, not as great as you do but it still looks pretty good right?"
"Definitely." He had black shorts on and a white shirt, with a black tie and a black vest.
"Which shoes?" He showed her a simple black pair shoes.
"Well, it's almost 7pm. We should grab something to eat before we go out." He looked on his phone.
"Wait I don't have a purse, where am I going to put my phone and my wallet and everything else?"
"You could put your phone-" he pointed between her breast. "The girls on tv always do it."
She didn't like the idea but she had no other choice and it was nice to go out without purse. She also put some money in her bra.
"Feels awkward."
"The important thing is I can't see it. Shall we?"
"Yes." They put their shoes on and walked a few blocks to a vegan snack bar, they already tried it and the food was good there, so they order a little snack and ate it inside. When they're finished they wished the owner a nice evening and left.
"So Kurt, where are we going?"
"It's a surprise okay? I can tell you I've never been there, but I knew about this club back in Lima." He grinned.
"Are you sure they'll let us in?"
"Yap."
"Okay then, surprise me." Kurt smiled happily and they caught a cab, Kurt whispered the driver the name of the club and smiled when he sat back. The driver gave them a skeptical look trough the rearview mirror and drove. They only drove for a few minutes and Kurt was really excited about this club, Rachel could tell because when the cab stopped he almost jumped out of it, but he managed to pay the driver and opened the door for Rachel.
"Thank you." When Rachel got out of the cab she saw the club, she didn't know the name, but it must be good because there was a long line-up.
"Kurt, it will take hours until we're inside." She sighed.
"Rachel, just follow me." He sounded absolutely confident, so she followed him. Rachel was sure some of the people in the line-up were watching her and Kurt, but didn't look. Kurt went straight to the bouncer. There were two doors, one for the line-up and one for the VIP's. Kurt talked to the bouncer and the man, who seemed pretty intimidating to Rachel, just nodded and let them in through the VIP entrance. Inside Kurt just smiled at Rachel.
"How did you do that?" Rachel was shocked.
"I know people, who know people, you know." They laughed and went further. The music was loud, but not too loud and Rachel liked it. The atmosphere in the club was great. They walked to the back of the club, where the music wasn't so loud anymore and sat on one table.
"Kurt this club is amazing!"
"I told you! Did I surprise you?" Rachel smiled.
"Definitely."
"Good. You want something to drink?"
"Yah."
"Okay, be right back." Rachel didn't liked the idea of being alone in this club, but she was sure Kurt would never bail on her so she just waited.
"Hi."
"Hey." A women, just a few years older than herself sat on Kurt's place.
"How are you?"
"I'm fine thanks. And you?" Rachel smiled at her.
"I'm great. Why are you sitting here alone?"
"My friend is going to get us something to drink."
"That's nice. I'm Alice." Alice offered her hand to Rachel.
"Rachel." Rachel shook her hand and smiled, she thought this woman was really nice and wondered why everyone always says NY people are rude.
"That's a pretty name." Alice smiled.
"Thank you..." Rachel smiled shyly.
"So what are you doing here?"
"My friend, Kurt, thought it would be fun and I had no other plans..."
"Don't you have someone special?"
"Not really..." The woman still smiled. Rachel thought that she was pretty. She had short blond hair and, as far as Rachel could see in this club light, blue eyes, but she wasn't sure.
"That doesn't sound good."
"I'm not sure what it is, yet, but I feel something special for someone I know."
"Well you should find out what it is."
"This someone doesn't like me." She still smiled nicely at Rachel.
"Well maybe I can help. I like you pretty much."
"Back off!" Rachel winced when she heard the familiar voice, but Alice didn't care.
"Who are you?" Alice stood up and Rachel turned around, that's when she saw her.
"You want me to call the cops for sexual interaction with a minor?" Rachel knew Cassandra meant her with minor, but she didn't understood the sexual interaction thing.
"Whoa, Rachel, how old are you?"
"I'm 18, why?"
"I'm sorry Rachel, I gotta go." And with that Alice left.
"Why'd you do that?!" Rachel was mad, just because she was her teacher, didn't mean she could tell her who Rachel can talk to.
"She wanted to have sex with you." Rachel was shocked, she didn't pick up any vibes. "That's why I did it." Rachel looked confused at her teacher. "Oh and while we're here, call me Cassandra. Otherwise it would seem really awkward." Cassandra wasn't even looking at her anymore, instead she smiled to somebody in the crowd. She stood up and walked a few steps. "Kurt! It's so nice to see you again!"
"Yes it is. I didn't know you were coming tonight..."
"Yea, I got bored at home. How did you get in?" She put a smirk on.
"Well, I said you send me." He shyly looked away.
"Well done." She smiled at him. "So, what are you guys doing here?"
"Wait, is that one of the clubs you told Kurt about?" Rachel interrupted them.
"Yes why?" Cassandra didn't know why Rachel looked shocked.
"Kurt!" Rachel frowned and sounded mad.
"Rachel! Cassandra would you excuse us for a moment? Thank you." Kurt grabbed Rachel at her arm.
"I'll grab something to drink, you want some too?"
"Yes thank you." Kurt nodded with a smile.
"Kurt!" She whispered.
"I'm sorry Rachel, I didn't know she was coming!"
"I'm not mad because of her!"
"Why then?"
"A gay club?! Really? That's your idea of surprising me? Hook me up with some girl or what?!" She tried to keep her voice low, but it didn't work.
"No. I had no intention of hooking you up with some stranger girl. You wrote me the text-"
"I don't remember writing it!"
"-anyway, you also said, you never thought about being gay, and I find that's a shame. Your parents and your best friend are gay, so it can't be so bad, right?" Rachel still didn't look happy. "We can leave if you want-"
"Yes!"
"-or we could enjoy ourselves, have some fun and maybe you find out why you're unlucky with guys." Kurt offered her a smile. She shook her head, but had to laugh when Kurt grinned, so the turned around and got back to their seats.
"Here we to." Cassandra returned with a plate full of shots. Rachel's eyes grew big.
"Is this tequila?"
"Yep, it's the only thing I know you drink, and it's also tequila night." Rachel smiled, she liked tequila, even though she couldn't handle it.
"Rachel are you sure?" Kurt looked concerned, he remembered that she didn't remember the last night, because of a few tequila shots.
"Yes Kurt."
"You want some or not?" Cassandra seemed lightly annoyed, because they didn't drink. She knew it was probably a bad idea to go and talk to Rachel and Kurt, but she couldn't let some blond chick flirt with her Rachel. Rachel gave Kurt one shot and got herself another. She could have hit herself for those thoughts.
"To New York and new experiences!" Rachel lifted her glass and had a bright smile on, Kurt shook his head but smiled and held his glass high, just as Rachel. That's what he wanted, Rachel enjoying herself, even though it was weird with Cassandra, not because she was Rachel's teacher, because Kurt had the feeling Rachel liked her teacher more than she's supposed to. "To new experiences!"
Cassandra laughed and lifted her glass, they clinked heir glasses and took the shot.
"I love tequila!" Kurt and Cassandra laughed in unison about Rachel, and she laughed with them.
After two more shots Rachel already felt dizzy. "Kurt, you were right. It's great here." She grinned at him.
"I told him about this club so you both can thank me." Cassandra looked at Rachel.
"Yeah, thank you! I love it here." Rachel smiled brightly.
"Yah. And people love you here Rachel." Kurt smirked.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Cassandra hissed at Kurt.
"Look around! There are plenty of girls watching Rachel!" He said the last part a little quieter.
"Wow you're right Kurt!" Rachel took another shot and Kurt with her, but Cassandra just looked around. When she saw some pretty girls watching Rachel, she looked at Rachel. This time she saw, what they saw.
"Rachel you look hot?" Cassandra looked her up and down.
"Excuse me?" Rachel smirked at her.
"I... I mean your dress is awesome, I didn't know you had such a great style."
"It is a gift."
"Oh.." Cassandra flushed at the view, and was glad about the light in the club, so nobody could tell.
"I'll get some more shots guys." Kurt stood up. Rachel smiled and nodded in agreement.
"I can do that!" Cassandra jumped up.
"No, no. It's my turn, be right back." He winked at Rachel and left with a smile. Cassandra felt uncomfortable, being alone with Rachel.
"You think I should talk to one of those girls?" Rachel was curious, the girls were smiling and waving at her.
"No." Cassandra didn't liked being alone with her, but she sure as hell would dislike, seeing Rachel flirt with these chicks, even more.
"But they're staring." Rachel looked at her teacher.
"Turn away, distract yourself, whatever just don't talk to them." Rachel sighed and stood up anyway. Cassandra watched Rachel in slow motion, walking over to one of those girls, with a bright smile on her face. And god Rachel looked amazing. Cassandra almost didn't realize, that she jumped up and caught up with Rachel. She grabbed her on the arm and pulled her over to the dance floor. Cassandra could see the girl frown and put on a smirk.
"What the hell Cassandra?" It sounded strange, to hear her name from Rachel.
"Let's dance okay?"
"Okay." Rachel already smiled again, Cassandra thought, that she changed her mood pretty fast, but didn't mind as long as she could keep Rachel away from those girls. She remembered that she came tonight to get over Rachel, well that obviously didn't work. They danced, she tried to leave some space between them, but Rachel came closer and dance with her. She had breathing problems and couldn't look Rachel in the eye. Cassandra was sure people were watching them, Rachel was the hottest girl in the club tonight. They danced two tracks and then Rachel grabbed her arm and pulled her back to their seats, where Kurt waited for them.
"Great Kurt!" Rachel smiled happily and hugged him, she was drunk. Kurt looked over to Cassandra and she just shrugged.
"Rachel do you mind if I stay over there?" He pointed to a group of people. "I know them, you can come too if you want."
"It's okay enjoy yourself." She gave him a wink although he didn't know why.
"Yes, see you later. Bye Cassandra." He gave Rachel a kiss on the cheek and walked over to the group.
"So now we're alone." Rachel smirked and Cassandra wasn't sure if it was a good one, because Rachel's statement sounded real bad to her. She took a shot.
"Yes, we are." Cassandra got nervous, but played cool, she was pretty good at that.
"Can-I ask you somethin'?"
"Yes."
"Do you think I look sexy tonight?"
"What?!" She already told Rachel that she looked hot, but Cassandra wondered where that question came from.
"DoI look sexy? Kurt-thought I might begay. I dunno so I've to findout." Rachel looked trough the crowd of people.
"And how are you going to do that?" Cassandra raises an eyebrow, Rachel tried to take another shot but Cassandra took it from her, Rachel frowned, but didn't take another.
"Well, I'd haveto tryit."
"Why would Kurt even think you could be gay? You don't seem gay to me." Cassandra was sure this was wrong, this conversation and being at a club with her student, but she didn't care that much about her job.
"I'll just tryit."
"You shouldn't just walk over to a stranger and try to find out if you're gay or not. That's ridiculous." She shook her head in disbelief of what Rachel was suggesting.
"How else am I suppose to findout? You're offering?" Rachel laughed, but that's not the way Cassandra intended the conversation to go. But she didn't say no, she said nothing, what made Rachel's eyes grow big and she quickly looked away. Cassandra thought for a moment what she should do, and then she just kissed Rachel, she was sure nobody recognized her in here and since Rachel didn't remember last night, Cassandra was sure she wouldn't remember this night too. Rachel was surprised by the kiss but she didn't stop Cassandra, in fact she kissed her back and she liked it, Cassandra's lips were soft and tasted likes cherry. The kiss was soft but passionate and Cassandra loved it. She was sure people were watching them, but she didn't care, she just kissed Rachel, until Rachel pulled away to breath. Cassandra watched Rachel, she was looking for some reaction, but Rachel's face didn't show anything. Cassandra looked over to some of the girls, who were watching Rachel the whole night and saw that heir jaws were dropped or they frowned or looked disappointed. She had to stop herself from smirking.
"Rachel?" Rachel still hasn't said anything, but her breath steadied. Rachel licked her lips and flushed so bad Cassandra could see it, despite the dark light.
Cassandra didn't know what to do so she stood up and walked away. She couldn't believe she just did that, all she wanted was to get over Rachel, not fall even harder for her.
Rachel took the last shot and followed Cassandra, she totally forgot about Kurt. Rachel followed Cassandra to the rest room and called her name, but she didn't react.
