During Monday's glee practise the whole club gathered around the piano, admiring their first place trophy which was perched on top of it.

"Now, I know we've had our dramas this week but our family's back in a happy place and I think we should celebrate the best way we know how." Mr Schue smiled across the piano at Rachel.

"Rachel, so how would you like a solo?"

"Thanks but um, I don't really feel much like a solo right now." she replied quietly, causing Kurt to nearly fall over. It looked like the same Rachel that had spent the last few weeks complaining about not having a solo but it didn't sound like her.

"I'd like to defer it to this week's two unsung heroes. Mercedes and Tina."

Mercedes and Tina grinned at each other.

"Well," Mercedes announced. "don't have to ask me twice."

The two girls lead everyone out towards the auditorium. Kurt went to follow them but was stopped by a hand on his shoulder.

"Just a second Kurt," Mr Schue said motioning for him to stay behind. "I know I said I had an idea for a solo for you at sectionals and then we never managed to fit it in..."

"It's okay," Kurt smiled. "Even if I didn't get my own solo, I'm happy that we shined the spotlight on some talent that isn't Finn and Rachel for once."

"And I want to keep doing that, so maybe you should start thinking about something you'd like to sing at regionals," Mr Schue said, grinning at the surprised look on Kurt's face.

"I.. really? For regionals?" he spluttered.

"For regionals," he confirmed. "Well we better go before they start without you."


An hour later Kurt was searching through his msn contact list but there was no Blaine. His eyes stopped on another name.

Kurt: Hey

Rachel: Hi Kurt

Kurt: Rachel Berry turning down a solo, I never thought I'd see the day

Rachel: Yeah well I didn't feel much like singing

Kurt: Who are you and what have you done with Rachel?

Rachel: She's still here, just miserable and depressed

Kurt: Is this because of Finn?

Rachel: Isn't it always?

Kurt: I know what Finn did was kinda bad but if you're this sad being away from him then maybe you should just make up?

Rachel: He didn't tell you?

Kurt: Tell me what?

Rachel: I messed everything up

Kurt: What did you do?

Rachel: I was so angry at him... and I thought it would make us even... so I made out with Puck

Kurt: Oh Rachel...

Rachel: And now he's never going to forgive me

Kurt: With Puck? After the whole drama with Quinn?

Rachel: I know, I don't know what I was thinking

Kurt: Were you even thinking at all?

Rachel: What am I going to do?

Kurt: I think you need to just give him some time, probably a lot of time actually

Rachel: I guess I can do that

Kurt: And don't quit glee!

Rachel: What?

Kurt: Well Finn and Rachel drama usually ends in one of you quitting the club

Rachel: That is not going to happen

Kurt: We'll see miss 'I don't feel like a solo'

Rachel: I'm serious. That was last year. Like Mr Schue said we're a family now and whatever drama is going on... it's not going to stop us taking nationals

Kurt: I'm glad to hear that

Rachel: New York here we come :)

Kurt: Well if we want to get to New York I might need your help

Rachel: Hm?

Kurt: Mr Schue wants me to sing a solo at regionals

Rachel: What? Omg!

Rachel: That's great but unsurprising since you're my only real competition

Rachel: Have you thought about what you might sing?

Rachel: Kurt?

Rachel: ?

Rachel: I know you're still there else your status would have changed to AFK like 10 minutes ago

Rachel: Omg you're talking to Blaine aren't you!

*Rachel nudges you*

Kurt: Sorry! Uh yeah Blaine came online and I may have got distracted

Rachel: Mhmm i see ;)

Kurt: There is nothing 'winky face' about it

Rachel: Invite him in!

Kurt: What?

Rachel: On the msn window, click invite and you can add him to our conversation

Kurt: Uh, no way

Rachel: Why not?

Kurt: You thought it was weird that I was even talking to him!

Rachel: Well wouldn't talking to him myself be a great way to change my perception?

Kurt: Or a great way to scare him away forever

Rachel: Please! I'll be nice! And it'd cheer me up after my awful day :(

Kurt: Don't try and guilt me!

Rachel: The way I feel now I might never sing again

Kurt: Ughhhhhhhh, let me ask him

Rachel: Yay!

Kurt: Look, I like Blaine but he's still an online friend ok? No giving out personal information, especially MY personal information

Rachel: Yes yes, I heard the same 'internet safety' speech at school that you heard

Kurt: Yes well unlike some people I actually paid attention to it

Rachel: Hey how often do you see me talking to strange men online?

Kurt: Hmm but I see you still update weekly videos to your myspace page for the world to see. You do know everyone is on facebook now right?

Rachel: The world deserves to see my talent. Now where is Blaine?

Kurt: Ok ok, one second

*Blaine has been added to the conversation*

Kurt: So this is my friend Rachel and you don't have to answer anything she asks you

Rachel: I'm his best friend :)

Blaine: Hi Rachel, it's a pleasure to meet you

Rachel: Hello to you too Blaine

Kurt: Well this is sufficiently awkward

Rachel: Nonsense! So Blaine how are you?

Blaine: I'm very well, and you?

Rachel: Not good actually

Blaine: Oh no, what's wrong?

Kurt: Rachel! He doesn't want to hear about you and Finn!

Blaine: Kurt's step-brother?

Rachel: We broke up today

Blaine: Oh I'm sorry to hear that, what happened?

Rachel: Um, maybe Kurt's right, you don't want to hear about that

Kurt: I am right, he doesn't

Rachel: So Blaine what do you look like?

Kurt: Rachel!

Rachel: Do you want to know what Kurt looks like?

Kurt: RACHEL! ! !

Blaine: Looks aren't important to me ;)

Rachel: Well aren't you charming, I see why Kurt likes you

Blaine: He talks about me a lot, huh?

Rachel: Only all the time!

Kurt: That isn't true

Kurt: Tell him that isn't true!

Rachel: Okay I may be exaggerating a little

Kurt: She's exaggerating a lot actually

Blaine: I'm sure she is lol

Rachel: I hear my dads calling me for dinner I have to go :(

Blaine: It was nice meeting you Rachel

Rachel: You too!

Kurt: Bye Rachel

Rachel: Oh we'll have to meet up tomorrow to discuss song choices!

Kurt: Ok, now go away

Rachel: Byyeeeeee! ! ! xxx

*Rachel has left the conversation*

Kurt: Sorry about her

Blaine: Don't be, she seems nice

Kurt: She's fine but she can come on a little strong

Blaine: I did notice that, what did she mean anyway?

Kurt: You have to be more specific

Blaine: About discussing song choices

Kurt: Oh it's just a glee club thing

Blaine: You're in glee club?

Kurt: I didn't tell you?
