Chapter 32
(The next morning)
Rachels pov:
I was in bed asleep when Kurt came in and said,

"Rachel wake up!" He whispered shouted.

"Huh?" I said waking up .

"Come on get dress." He said.

"Why?" I asked him .

"We're going to have breakfast, at Tiffanys." He said.

I smiled and got dress and we snuck out.

(At Tiffanys)
"I love New York bagels and water." Kurt said as we ate on the wall of Tiffanys.

"Me too and thats why I decided after graduation I'm moving here." I told him.

"And what about Finn?" He asked me.

"Finns a country boy he doesn't belong in the big city." I told him.

"You know Rachel , I have always admired you for your talent and although you can be completely annoying at times I think you can be a star like you want." He told me.

"But?" I said knowing there was more.

"But, Finn ,he loves you and you love him so stop being afraid and make a decision." He told me.

"How?" I asked him .

He smiled ,

"Come with me." He said and we ran off to the Wicked theater.

"What are we doing here?" I asked him .

"This is where you can make your decision. Image it, opening night ,you just finished singing the last note of Defying Gravity and here you are on the stage and the audience is clapping for you." He said and suddenly the music came on:
[Rachel]
I'm limited
Just look at me - I'm limited
And just look at you
You can do all I couldn't do, Glinda
So now it's up to you
For both of us
Now it's up to you

[Kurt]
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...

Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good

[Rachel]
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a hand print on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...

Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a sky bird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you

[Kurt]
Because I knew you

[Both]
I have been changed for good

And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done you blame me for

[Kurt]
But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share

[Both]
And none of it seems to matter anymore

[Kurt] (Rachel)
Like a comet pulled from orbit (Like a ship blown from its mooring)
As it passes a sun (By a wind off the sea)
Like a stream that meets a boulder (Like a seed dropped)
Halfway through the wood (By a bird in the wood)
