As Rachel sat in her seat on the flight home. Not back to New York but back to Lima, Ohio. Rachel can't believe how all of her dreams crashed and burned. She couldn't believe she would be returning as a failed star and college dropout. She just proved all those who called her a loser in high school , right. How did she go from Broadway star to television's biggest failure. She was un-rehirable and no way would Carmen let her back into NYADA. She was unlucky in love too. All of her failed relationships and losing the love of her life. Rachel had I planned out. Finn would be teaching at McKinley, she would become a huge star and come home to surprise him. And say "hi honey I'm home " and they would live happily ever after. But now that will be a dream that would not come true. Finn was gone and she never stopped loving him. Probably never will but was it time for her to move forward? Put her life back together and maybe find love again. They say you sometimes have to lose yourself before you can truly find yourself.

Rachel thought for a second perhaps those sparks she felt with Sam were real but who was she kidding. He was always in love with Quinn, Santana, Brittney and yes Mercedes. She remembers asking him to prom in high school and he turned her down because she wasn't his type. Maybe she's meant to be alone.

Flight attendant: Attention passengers please make sure you're seated, seatbelts fastened. We will be arriving in Lima, Ohio shortly. Thank you for flying American Airlines.

Rachel sighed and looked out the window.

 "Uninvited"

 [Rachel:]
 Like anyone would be
 I am flattered by your fascination with me
 Like any hot-blooded woman
 I have simply wanted an object to crave

 But you, you're not allowed
 You're uninvited
 An unfortunate slight

 Must be strangely exciting
 To watch the stoic squirm
 Oh, must be somewhat heartening
 To watch shepherd meet shepherd

 But you, you're not allowed
 You're uninvited
 An unfortunate slight

 Ooh-woah!
 Oh,

 Like any uncharted territory
 I must seem greatly intriguing
 And you, you speak of my love like
 You have experienced love like mine before

 But this is not allowed
 You're uninvited
 An unfortunate slight

 Ooh, whoa, oh

 I don't think you unworthy

 I need a moment to deliberate.

Rachel gripped her seat as the plane landed. She sighed as she retrieved her carry on bags exiting the plane. Soon she was leaving ramp, and spotted her father Leroy..where was daddy Hiraim? And her other best friend Blaine, standing there smiling and ran to hug Rachel. Rachel hugged both as her dad went to retrieve her luggage from baggage claim.

Blaine: Rachel it is so good to see you. Are you okay?

Rachel: Blaine what are you doing here? Where is Kurt? Where is my daddy?

Blaine: Wow you have been hiding.

Leroy: We will talk about it at home.

Rachel: Okay...I am starving and want to sleep.

Rachel, Blaine, and Leroy got into the car and drove home. Rachel slept during car ride home.

About an hour later, they arrived home. Leroy grabbed bags as Blaine carried Rachel.

Leroy: Blaine, can you take her upstairs while I get dinner started. Will you stay as well?

Blaine: Yes I can. Is it okay if I invited Sam as well?

Leroy: I think Rachel would love that. She loves you boys very much.

Blaine smiled, and looked at Rachel, "We love her too."

Blaine took Rachel to her room and laid her on the bed letting her sleep. He went to help Leroy with dinner and called Sam to come over.

A half hour later, Rachel woke up and looked around and took her a few minutes to remember where she was. She was in her bed, in her childhood bedroom. It was just as she left it. She felt tears threatening to fall. Then reminded herself that at least she had a home to come back to. She quickly took a shower, dressed casually then went to find her dad and Blaine in the kitchen.

Leroy: Hello pumpkin sleep well?

Rachel: Where is daddy?

Leroy: *sigh* Rachel please sit. Your father and I are getting a divorce.

Rachel: What? No no please tell me this isn't happening. I'm officially in hell.

Leroy: It's been bad for a long time, we just agreed to wait until you came out of seclusion. You had enough on your plate. You can stay with me as long as you want. But, we.put the house on the market a few weeks ago.

Rachel: Where am I supposed to go now?

Blaine: Don't worry Rachel, you will always have a place.

Rachel: And you Blaine, where is Kurt?

Blaine: Um, well, we broke up. We were "too young" according to Kurt. My grades slipped and I got cut from NYADA, and I came home and now the new coach of the Warblers. Let's make a promise, we will get through this together and turn these sour lemons into sweet lemonade. Okay?

Rachel: I'm so lucky to have you.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Rachel ran to get the door, she opened and gasped.

Rachel: What are you doing here?

??: Hi Rachel it's great to see you.

Rachel: Sam....

Sam walked into the house and grabbed Rachel pulling her into a hug.

Sam: I've missed you. Welcome home, Rachel..

Rachel was shocked and hugged back before bursting into sobs.

Rachel: I missed you too, Sam.

Sam kissed her forehead and smiled sheepishly. Sparks flew again but both chose to ignore them as everyone sat down for dinner.

Rachel felt odd being home again but glad she wasn't alone. And why were those pesky sparks flying between she and Sam again? They were nothing but friends. Hmmmm....cupid must be bored, she thought.
