“Today, I had a dream,” said Rachel, “and I’m pretty sure I just saw into my past lives.”
“What are you talking about?” Kurt didn’t look up from his nail file as he asked it. They were huddled together in the school corridor as Rachel came up to them; Kurt leaned across the wall and Mercedes and Tina were in the middle of reviewing the latest Vogue. As if she was invisible, the two of them continued what they were doing, if anything, giving it even more attention than they did before.
“I had a dream about Finn and I—“
“Rachel, I’m gonna stop you right there.” Kurt’s gaze moved to her, as did his index finger. “Finn’s with Quinn. They’re popular and beautiful and madly in love. It’s not happening.”
“No, but that’s what I’m telling you!” Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes filled with sparkles and insanity as usual. “I saw us. Finn and I. I dreamed about what our life-lives!-together were like. In every lifetime we would find each other and be together and—“
“But Quinn—“
“No, that’s what I’m saying!” She stared into the distance like she was about to burst into a Disney song. “Every time there would be someone standing in our way, and every time, the power of our love would overcome the obstacles. Isn’t it beautiful?”
“More like crazy,” muttered Mercedes making a face, but still going through Vogue’s pages.
“Your Prince Charming’s coming.” Kurt nodded at something behind her, and Rachel jerked around to look at Finn walking in their direction. He was smiling, a big, wide grin, and Rachel, without hesitation, smiled back. She raised her hand and began to say, “Hi, Finn!”, but he passed her without noticing. A moment later, she watched him kiss Quinn and then the two of them wander off.
“Definitely meant to be.” Kurt rolled his eyes and went back to his nail file.
