We Found Wonderland

Part 2

The next motioning Rachel went downstairs and was greeted by the smell of pancakes. She walked into the kitchen to see her dad Leroy standing by the stove and adding chocolate chips to the pancakes.

"Good morning, Rachel!" Hiram exclaimed, a little too cheerily for 7:30 in the morning.

"Hey Dad." Rachel responded. 

"Rachel, you sound exhausted, what's going on?" Leroy walked over to her and sat down at the table. 

"It's nothing," Rachel sighed, "I was just up late that's all." She sat down at the table and Hiram brought the pancakes over to her with a concerned glance to his husband. Rachel ate her breakfast and thought for a second. "I think I'm going to go for a walk after breakfast if that's alright?"

Leroy nodded and he and Hiram left Rachel to eat her breakfast in peace. It was winter break and Rachel knew that finding someone to walk with would be difficult, but after texting only three people, Kurt answered and agreed. It was a very spur-of-the-moment decision to ask Kurt, but she was very curious as to why Kurt gave her phone number away. She had spent much of last night lying awake texting Quinn, and when Quinn finally went to sleep, Rachel lay awake thinking about her.

Walking outside, she looked down the street to see Kurt jogging down to her house. 

"Hey Rachel!" He waved to her awkwardly.

"It's been a while."

"It has... how have you been doing?"

Rachel paused and thought for a second. "To be completely honest, I genuinely can't remember half of what's going on, I feel like I've been super busy but simultaneously have nothing going on."

"That's one of the most relatable things I've heard in a while." Kurt responded with a laugh.

They walked around the block, getting caught up and talking about everything. Rachel told Kurt about a new song she was writing and in return Kurt told Rachel about his new shirt he was working on. They were interrupted by Rachel's phone buzzing.

"It's Quinn!" Rachel exclaimed.

Kurt smiled, "Why don't you go ahead and answer it?" he said, knowingly. 

Glancing down at her phone, Rachel read what Quinn had sent: "How are you doing today?"

Hey! It's been like a year and a half since I updated, and although the writing is shitty, I had a nice little time writing this so I'll probably do it more. I did actually start this as a way to write about a crush I had, but like I said, this was a year and a half ago so that crush is long gone. I'll probably take some more creative liberties but I'm still using that story as a basis for this one. Anyway yeah...
