My name is Rachel Barbra Berry.

I am nineteen years old and currently a Freshman at NYU, Tisch to be exact. I am a Musical Theatre Major and I plan on my name being on the marquee of some of the greatest theatres that this world has to offer.

I used to think that High School defined you, that those four years would shape you into the person you would be for the rest of your life. I've learned differently since I've been at NYU.

I'm in love with the most wonderful man - my fiance, Finn.

We have a little baby named Bo.



( PURELY FOR RP PURPOSES ONLY. )

Finn: I know, Rach. You owe me a bunch of kisses for this. Baby, you've given me this speech since the first night you stayed over, I know already!! What do you mean by /a little late/? Did you already finish?
Finn: I'm not worried about it at all. I just want us to be on the same page, and we are. I love you.
Rachel: I'll give you as many as you want once you're back in bed with me. :) I know, I know! I'm just reminding you.. Not /yet/, Finny...
Rachel: We are. :) I love you, too. I hope.. you're not angry with me at all, are you?

Finn: Oh, whatever. I got the ice cream, so it doesn't matter now! Well like you always say, 'dental hygiene is /very/ important!' ;) Just-I'm almost home, I swear.
Finn: Yeah? :) And I love you. Okay, good. Because I want you to live your dream and be on Broadway, but I also want us to have that family, no matter how long it takes.
Rachel: I still very much appreciate it. It is! It's very important also to not swap morning breath! Oh... well, you may be a little late, Coach...
Rachel: Definitely. :) I love you, too. If you don't worry about it, I won't either. We'll have our dreams and our future, because this was meant to happen. We were meant to do this together.

Finn: Uh huh, sure you did!! I guess I did, huh? Morning sex is awesome, Rach. Baby, /stop/ it, you're killing me over here.
Finn: Well, you are. You're a star Rach, and everyone knows it. Am I part of that dream now? :) Just-promise me that no matter what, we /will/ have a family.
Rachel: I did! :) You've been gone for nearly an hour, I'd never ask for that. You've definitely made me a believer of that, especially when we brush our teeth before. Killing you? I'd never want to kill you.. that's the opposite of what I want to do to you right now.
Rachel: You're the best support team that anyone could ask for. You're.. the biggest part of that dream now. Finn, I promise you..with every single pinky in this world, that we will have a family and it won't be too far away.

Finn: You're the one that wanted ice cream from that vegan place!! Seriously? Baby, we went three times. You-I'm almost home.
Finn: It is, but you know what, that's life. A lot of Broadway people have to leave for a little bit and then come back cause of family stuff. It's normal, Rach. Yeah, it is, but...promise me something? And you're right, we can do this.
Rachel: I forgot that it was nearly a twenty minute drive! I can't help it... you've really shown me how the morning can be such a great time to be..together. You've really taught me well, Coach Hudson...
Rachel: That /is/ life. I suppose I just never thought of myself as one of them, though. I thought that Broadway was going to be it for me..my future. Then you came in and.. just changed everything, in the most..beautiful way possible. :) Of course, anything. I know we can. :)

Finn: I love you, too. :) The ladder Rach, definitely the ladder.
Finn: Baby, don't think like that. If you're really that worried, talk to Kurt. He's knows all about it. Almost two years? I...that's kind of crazy to think about. But we can do that. We can do this. Right?
Rachel: You better hurry home, then. I suppose that this morning wasn't enough for me... Mr. Hudson 2.0 may have been taken out of my drawer...
Rachel: I'll try not to. It's something very trivial to think about, though. It is rather odd to imagine where we'll be two years from now... but who knows. Maybe we'll have a baby on the way..or even one already born? We can do this..we /are/ going to do this.

Finn: Of course. :) Call me Coach Hudson again, and we're going to have a serious problem.
Finn: They will work out, I promise. And no, you can't think like that. Baby, a bunch of people get on Broadway and have babies and leave and come back. Kurt talks about it all the time since he has to dress them. You can make it happen, and you /will/. Wait, a few /years/? Like-like how many years?
Rachel: I love you. :) Well..perhaps I'll just save that for later, then.. or maybe I'll just be moaning it later?
Rachel: Me too. I pinky promise you. :) They do... I suppose I'm just..comparing myself to them a bit harshly. What if I'm not considered as great as them, though? We'll make this work. :) I.. well, depending on the show it could run from anywhere between half a yeah and most likely just about two. I'm not sure if I'd like to do a show up to two years, though.

Finn: I know you won't, and I won't either. /Rachel/, stop it!
Finn: Yeah, well it's definitely not happening! Just...baby, remember that nothing can ever go exactly as planned. We both know that things aren't always as perfect as we want them to be. And that sounds good. But don't forget that you are a /star/, Rach. And if next year, you're pregnant and then suddenly someone want's you but you can't take it, that doesn't mean it's it for you. Broadway will /always/ be there for you, Rach.
Rachel: Pinky promise? :) Stop what, Finny? I'm just telling you the truth.. I have a ring on my finger now that is tell everyone that Coach Hudson is /mine/ now, even more so than before.. ;)
Rachel: We'll just have to plan as quickly and efficiently as possible! I know... things will work out how they are meant to, though. I... You're right. I can't think like that, like everything will disappear if I try to make more than just one of my dreams come true. Then, if I get a role it will most likely only run for a few years at the most and then we.. then our family can finally really begin. :)

Finn: I know that, baby. We can't help it though, sometimes we get angry. But we never let that change us. Stop it, you're going to turn me on in public.
Finn: Okay good cause Kurt isn't going to shut up once he finds out. Rach, /I know/ that, I really do. I want a family with you, but I know how hard you've worked for Broadway. Besides, I don't want you to say no to a role, have our baby, and then resent our kid or feel empty. Not that you'd ever hate our baby, I'm just saying that I don't want you to ever look back and think 'What if?" And you'll only be twenty next summer, so waiting a little longer won't kill us.
Rachel: Never. I'll never let myself become so angry that I lose sight of my love for you, not that I even think that is possible. I'll always love you. Oh? Well we couldn't have that, baby... I wouldn't want Coach Hudson to show everyone what only /I/ get.
Rachel: He's definitely going to try to become our wedding planner, Finn. I can't believe...you're amazing. I'm so thankful that you understand that it's not that I love Broadway more than you or our future family...it's that I love you and that future so much that I want to make sure it's perfectly right. How about.. what if we make a deal? I'll continue to go to school and even audition for shows..and if I don't hear anything /at all/ by this time next year, then we can start trying officially.

Finn: I pinky swear, Rach. Not even then, and you know that. There have been times where I've been /really/ angry with you, but I've never not loved you. And that's Coach to you. ;)
Finn: Promise me one thing? /Don't/ let Kurt pick your dress. I-Oh. I...well, I guess we'd just-we'd have to compromise.
Rachel: I do. I definitely do now. I really wish that you were never angry with me.. you know that, don't you? I never want to make you really angry. ...Coach, hm? You're going to be home soon, aren't you, Coach Hudson? ;)
Rachel: Oh, Finn. :) I promise you that I will pick my own dress. I... It's not that I don't want our family, Finn. I do, I really /really/ do. I'm just scared that everything will become all messy and.. and one of us will end up hurt. I love you so much, Finn, and I just want our futures to be perfect.

Finn: And I promise, I'll never get sick of saying that. Of course not, baby. :) Canada was just a little preview.
Finn: Our wedding's gonna be awesome, Rach. What do you mean?
Rachel: Do you pinky promise? Not even if you get truly, very angry with me? Oh, goodness... I shouldn't expect anything less from Finn Hudson, ex-quarterback, I suppose. ;)
Rachel: It's going to be amazing and perfect, Finny. I... I'm just nervous about timing. What if when we finally decide to start trying I.. I am offered a role, a /real/ role?
