********************

The weekend zipped by in a Flash, and soon it was time for Rachel and Sebastian to part ways until the summer when he comes to New York to go to school and perhaps move in with herself, Kurt and Blaine. That is I Klaine reunites. All Rachel cared about was being with Sebastian truthfully.

It was Monday morning, and Sebastian had to go back to Dalton for school but didn't want to leave Rachel just yet. When he woke up he saw that Rachel was already awake packing her suitcase.

Sebastian: Rach, what are you doing awake? What time is it?

Rachel: Oops Iam sorry babe, I didn't mean to wake you up. Its 4am.

Sebastian: 4 in the morning are you serious? Come back to bed.

Rachel: I can't. I leave today to head back to New York, and you have to go back to Dalton for school. I made coffee already and your breakfast is in the microwave.

Sebastian: *grabbing her hand, pulling her back down onto the bed with him* Are you already trying to get rid of me? Plus, your flight doesn't leave until later tonight. I thought I was going with you to the airport?

Rachel: Honey, you don't have to come. It's going to be hard enough leaving you, and Blaine was going to drive me.

Sebastian: IAM GOING TO BE THERE TOO.

Rachel: *sigh* Fine, but you still need to get up to get ready mister.

Sebastian: *groans* Yes ma'am. But first, I want to kiss my woman. Its going to be awhile until I get to kiss you whenever I want to.

Rachel giggles, she pulls his head down to meet his lips with her own. She always gets butterflies and sees fireworks whenever Sebastian kisses her. Rachel had never felt this way with anyone before.

Sebastian pulled away and reluctantly lets her go so that he can take a shower and rush back to school.

Sebastian: You know, it feels weird not to be able to compete right now. What is the purpose of practicing if we've been disbanded from competition?

Rachel: Maybe that's the problem we've all had. We got so wrapped up in competition and forgot what Glee was supposed to be about..having fun.

Sebastian: Are you serious? Coming from the woman who would kill for a solo and lived to compete?

Rachel: I still love that, but I realize now how consumed we all became with winning that it caused us to do stupid things. Like Marley starving herself and then passing out because she was so nervous about being perfect. Vocal Adrenaline and how they would puke and starve themselves. Or lie about their ages just to compete. And Dalton having to lie cheat, and do drugs. For what? For a trophy and bragging rights. We forgot our reason for Glee which is for the music and performing. Dalton used to do impromptu concerts and.benefits. Why don't you guys do that again until this all blows over and able to compete? This is your senior year and at least will pass the time until graduation. You guys keep talking about wanting to be the group you once were before everything went downhill and I think by doing that you will earn the trust of the school and alumni again.

Sebastian listened closely to his girlfriend. Wow she really has changed, and she's right. Even he was so consumed with winning at whatever cost and lost sight of his love for performing.

Rachel: I believe in you, Sebastian. Maybe it is time for you and the Warblers to believe in yourself. Plus I can't keep running back here everytime disaster strikes. At least not right now since I have Funny Girl auditions coming up.

Sebastian: In which you will get. I mean who else watches Funny Girl continuously and can bring down.the house with "Don't rain on my Parade" better than Rachel Berry herself?

Rachel: *smiles* Flattery and buttering me up will get you everything and anything.

Sebastian: Anything?

Rachel: Anything but not right now. Shower mister, you stink.

Sebastian: Ouch, way to crush your man's ego. And I stink of love and my Rachel Berry all over me. Get used to it. Hey maybe I can bottle it up and make millions.

Rachel: As long as you share the wealth. Now shower, breakfast and leave. You're wasting Tim.

Sebastian: Okay, okay miss Bossy pants.

Rachel: You will live.

Sebastian walked over to Rachel, throwing her over his shoulder.

Rachel: *squeals* Sebastian Smythe what the hell? Put me down?

Sebastian: I want to shower with my lady, and a quickie.

Rachel: You're such a romantic. *sarcastically *

Sebastian: I try. *he leans in to kiss her as they soon stepped into the shower.* (And you know what happens from there. )

******************

Thirty minutes later.....

Sebastian and Rachel hurried to get dressed. They had so much fun over the weekend, and were sad that they wont be seeing each other for a while.

Sebastian: I guess its back to Mr. Hand until I see you again.

Rachel: I am actually surprised you've gone as long as you have without straying like you used to.

Sebastian: That was before you when I never been in a relationship. I am not going to betray you. I lost you before or close to it. I don't want to be like that and certainly don't want to be like my father.

Rachel: Are you sure you want to be in New York with me? I don't want you to be like Finn and decide New York isn't what you want and end up resenting me.

Sebastian: I want to be with you. Believe it or not, I love to perform and perhaps I can study theatre and law at the same time?

Rachel: Maybe become an Entertainment Lawyer?

Sebastian: Maybe.

Rachel: Whatever you decide I'll be by your side.

Sebastian: Come here, Berry.

Rachel walked over to Sebastian wrapping her arms around his waist. "Yes?"

Sebastian: *kisses her softly, but firm* I love you.

Rachel kisses him back, pulling him into a deeper kiss. "I love you, too. "

Sebastian: I..I guess I'd better be going now. I'll meet you at the Airport before you take off, I promise.

Sebastian turned away before she could see the tears threatening to fall.

Rachel saw his face fall as he turned away, and grabbed his hand back ,leaping into his arms to kiss him goodbye.

Sebastian: *kisses her back, cupping her face gently* Save some kisses for later okay? Make sure Blaine gets you to Airport in time. I'll see you after school at the Airport okay? I love you , baby.

Rachel: I love you more.

Sebastian turned to leave headed for his car. He looked back to the door and shyly waves goodbye, blowing his love a kiss.

Rachel waved back, capturing his kiss and pressing to her heart then reciprocating a kiss back to Sebastian. He does the same, nothing " I love you" then enters his car, backing out of driveway heading for Westerville. He wiped a tear away. Damn he loved that woman. He then remembers the box in his coat he forgot to give to her. Tonight, he tells himself. Tonight he will give it to her.

**************

As Sebastian left, Rachel walked back into her house and as she closed her door, she leaned her back against it and slid down. She found herself missing him already. Missing the warmth she felt from his arms around her, the passion ignited from his kisses, just being in love all day every day. She could get used to it. She didn't need anyone else. And she really did hope that the Warblers and the New Directions can get past all the drama and enjoy Glee and the rest of their high school experience. Because the real world was a lot harder than she expected. She hopes also she and Sebastian can survive the long distance and also once he joins her. She walked over to her desk and picked up her iPod to listen to music while she continued to get herself ready to leave. An old Klymaxx song comes on, and she decided to record herself to send to Sebastian as he did with her. It's called "I miss you."

(Rachel) 

I thought I heard your voice yesterday
 When I turned around to say
 That I loved you then I realized
 And it was just my mind
 Playing tricks on me

 It seems colder lately at night
 And I try to sleep with the lights on
 Every time the phone rings
 I pray to God it's you
 I just can't believe
 That we're through

 I miss you (I miss you)
 There's no other way to say it
 And I, and I can deny it
 I miss you (I miss you)
 It's so easy to see
 I miss you and me

 Is it done and over this time?
 Have we really changed our minds
 But it's all this love
 All the feelings that we used to share
 I refused to believe
 That you don't care

*Rachel didn't know that Sebastian was coincidentally listening to the same song on Pandora in his car as he drove back to Dalton, singing along*

(Sebastian)

 I miss you (I miss you)
 There's no other way to say it
 And I, and I can deny it
 I miss you (I miss you)
 It's so easy to see

 I've got to gather my senses together
 I've been through worse kinds of weather
 If it's over now, be strong
 I can't believe that you're gone
 I've got carry on

(Rachel/Sebastian)

 I miss you (I miss you)
 Oh no other way to say it
 And I, and I can deny it
 I miss you (I miss you)
 It's so easy to see
 That you're part of me now

(Sebastian)

 No other way to say it
 It's so easy to see
 That you're part of me now
 It's driving me crazy
 It's so easy to see
 That you're part of me now
 That you're part of me now

(Rachel)

 I miss you (I miss you)
 It's driving me crazy
 I don't want to live without you
 I miss you (I miss you)

(Both)
 It's so easy to see
 I'm missing you and me

After song finished, both whispered: I love you.
