A/N: Sorry for the long hiatus. I've had a lot going on, but I am going to do my best to catch up. Thank you for your patience and support. I own nothing.

Sebastian touched his cheek. He knew he deserved Rachel's bitterness. Gawd, she is beautiful when she is angry.

Rachel: I will say it again...What the HELL are you doing here, Smythe?

Sebastian sighed. How is he going to make things right?

Sebastian: I was in the neighborhood, and decided to check on my favorite girl.

Rachel: You lost the right to call me "your girl" when you left me at the altar like a coward.

Sebastian: You're always going to be mine. Or have you replaced me already with Fish lips?

Rachel scoffed. He has a lot of nerve, Rachel thought. But damn has he gotten hotter? Focus, Berry.

Rachel: His name is Sam, and you lost any say in who I choose to date. And to be honest, I'd rather not talk to you period. You have the nerve to show up after all this time and expect us to what? Go back to being best friends? You're delusional.

Sebastian walked towards Rachel, reaching for her. Rachel stepped away.

Rachel: No! Stay away from me. I don't want to know.

Sebastian: Rachel, I don't deserve your forgiveness. What I did to you, to us...it was wrong. I got scared. You were destined for greatness.

Rachel: Don't hand me that, you were a scared little boy. You hurt me beyond belief. You were right, you DON'T deserve my forgiveness. Now if you will excuse me, I have places to be. Now stay away from me.

Sebastian wrapped his arms around Rachel. He pulled her to him, and swore he felt sparks. Rachel looked like she felt it too.

Sebastian: You still love me, Broadway. You can't deny it. Just give me a chance. Please.

Rachel: What if you bail again?

Sebastian: I won't.

Rachel: Seb, don't.

Sebastian leaned in, and Rachel felt her body betraying her. As she leaned in, Sebastian gently brushed his lips over hers. Rachel knew she should've pushed him away, but she would be lying if she didn't miss his lips. She was ready to give into his kiss, when she was distracted by someone clearing his voice.

*cough*

Sam: Hey Rachel, I wanted to see...oh sorry, am I interrupting?

Rachel jumped back, Sebastian groaned and glared at the intruder.

Rachel: Oh hey Sam, no, I was just about to leave.

Sebastian: Rachel...

Rachel grabbed her bag and hurried to Sam. She needed distance.

Sam: Everything OK?

Rachel: Yes. We are done here. Sebastian... We are done.

Sam looked back and forth at the pair. He put his arm around Rachel, and led her out of the room.

Rachel looked back at Sebastian, who hadn't moved. She knew she had to cut any ties with Sebastian. It did hurt to see the hurt in his eyes.

Sebastian watched her go with the Blonde Ken Doll. He waited until she was gone before punching the wall.

Sebastian: Fuck!!

Rachel was crazy if he were just going to walk away. He needed a plan. He loved Rachel. He needed to show her he was serious. She was the love of his life.

Sebastian sat down at the piano.

What You Mean To Me

(Sebastian)

Can't blame you
For thinking that you never really knew me at all
I tried to deny you
But nothing ever made me feel so wrong

I thought I was protecting you
From everything that I go through
But I know that we got lost along the way

Here I am with all my heart
I hope you understand
I know I let you down
But I'm never gonna make that mistake again

You brought me closer to who I really am
Come take my hand
I want the world to see what you mean to me
What you mean to me

Just know that I'm sorry
I never wanted to make you feel so small
Our story is just beginning
We'll let the truth break down these walls, oh yeah

And every time I think of you
I think of how you pushed me through
And showed me how much better I could be

Here I am with all my heart
I hope you understand
I know I let you down
But I'm never gonna make that mistake again

You brought me closer to who I really am
Come take my hand
I want the world to see what you mean to me
What you mean to me, yeah

You make me feel like I'm myself
Instead of being someone else
I wanna live that everyday

You say what no one would say
You know exactly how to get to me
You know it's what I need
It's what I need, yeah

Here I am with all my heart
I hope you understand
(I hope you understand)
I know I let you down
But I'm never gonna make that mistake again
(That mistake again)

You brought me closer to who I really am
So come take my hand
I want the world to see what you mean to me
What you mean to me

Sebastian wiped the stray tears. Somehow, some way , Rachel will be his again. 'I love you Rachel' he whispered.
