Chapter 3 – Cant Go There Without You
Quinn's night was quiet so she decided she should call Rachel. After a couple of rings Rachel answered and soon the two were talking. They talked about how different it was and about how lonely it was getting and it was only the first night. They knew it was going to be a long year hopefully filled with new adventures. Soon Quinn could hear Kurt in the background on the phone to Blaine talking about this adorable outfit he saw, causing both Quinn and Rachel to laugh, agreeing some things will never change.
As the night started to turn into morning they both had to give in to urging sleep and hang up. As Rachel lay there once again slowly falling to sleep she noticed that Kurt had also hung up the phone and she could feel his soft footsteps coming into her room. He slowly sat down on her bed and whispered 'Goodnight Rach and welcome to New York'. She slowly sat up and put her arm around him and planted a kiss on his cheek. 'Goodnight Kurt' she whispered.
Quinn thought Rachel was pretty lucky; she had her dreams ahead and Kurt with her. But she also had her things to look forward to. School started in a couple of days and she was getting really excited. Though it would have been nice if she could have been with Rachel and Kurt. After she went to sleep it didn't feel long until she was awake again and preparing for the day ahead.
It was a beautiful sunny day in New York when Kurt and Rachel awoke and they decided it would be the perfect day to have a shopping trip. They were meant to take this trip with Blaine but he had to go back to Ohio early to finish his homework. As Rachel and Kurt searched through the tourist shops for New York related gifts to send back to their friends either in Ohio or scattered around America, Rachel found herself getting teary eyed again. She had to stop this if she was going to be prepared for NYADA. She thought that a trip to the local sheet music store should do the trick so she dragged Kurt along to the nearest one. As they searched through the sheets of music looking for the perfect one to sum up their feelings Rachel found it.' Talking to the Moon. ' It definitely summed up the way Rachel and Kurt often lay there at night and looked up to the moon and talked to it because somehow it connected them to all the people they loved and missed so much.
Soon school started and Quinn was going well in classes. Everyone was being nice and including her, she even found a nice group of people she hopes to soon be friends with. Although she still missed Rachel, Kurt and all the others heaps. As she was on one of her nightly calls with Rachel, she told her all that had been happening and Rachel did the same. Rachel shared all the new and exciting things her and Kurt saw, she was happy for them but it also increased how much she was missing them. She expressed this to Rachel and Rachel admitted she was feeling the same way. The conversation soon died down and before they knew it, it was time for bed.
As Rachel hung up on Quinn she skipped over to where Kurt was applying his nightly facial routine. He looked at her quizzically before continuing to apply the moisturizer. He looked up at her again when she stood there for another minute without saying a word. Only this time he found tears in her eyes. He slowly put down his moisturizer and stood up to face her. Hugging her tightly he told her to get into her pyjamas and meet him in the lounge room. Excitedly she brushed her tears away and walked into her room to choose out a set of pyjamas to wear. As she was getting ready Kurt popped a packet of microwave popcorn into microwave and placed a DVD into the DVD player. Rachel came out of her room 5 minutes later in her black and white spotted pyjamas and placed herself down on the couch next to Kurt. As she asked him about the movie they were going to watch he just shrugged her off and pressed play. Rachel's mouth fell open as she snuggled into Kurt's side. Across the screen came images of all the memorable moments from glee club, video footage of their performances and messages recorded for them from every member of the club including and Rachel couldn't help but cry again, for what felt like the millionth time that day.
