Apologies again for the delay - this last part took longer than expected to finish editing. But this is the end!
Thank you to everyone who has commented on this fic! I didn't want to spam the email trackers with replies, but I appreciated each and every one. Especially those who mentioned Rachel's characterization - I was most worried about her coming off as too pushy or OOC (for all that this is sort of cracky in general), but most of it was based on her behaviour towards Quinn/Finn in early S1 and Blaine/Kurt in BIOTA. She has a bit further to fall in this last bit, but hopefully the end will show a bit more of her motivation for why she's so eager to ignore what's in front of her face.
Thanks to B again for the beta and suggestions (and the rec!). And to everyone reading, I hope this ending doesn't disappoint.Blaine rocked back on his heels, feeling a little out-of-place

"Kurt doesn't know I'm here," he said up front. The last thing he wanted was for her to feel embarrassed at the thought of them talking about her behind her back

"I'm sorry that you're jealous of what Kurt and I share," she said quietly, her voice like steel. "But you need to accept that you may not be the best thing for him

"Um, I don't really know how to say this," he said, looking down at his hands. "But I've kind of suspected for a while- and- and she confirmed it - that Rachel, um...sort of has feelings for you."
Kurt inclined his head. "Well, it's not like it was hard to figure out," he said. His lip curled in mild distaste. "Her original song in glee club today was entitled 'My Big Closet of Love.' Subtlety has never been Rachel's strong suit

"Brittany's not really your type."
"Athletic and endearingly clueless?" Kurt said, turning around on the bed to face him. "Actually, she kind of is."
Blaine laughed in spite of himself. "Hey," he said, smacking Kurt playfully on the leg. It all sounded kind of stupid now that he was saying it out loud, but he knew he'd feel better once it was all out in the open. "I'm just saying, you and Rachel have a lot in common. Actually, so do I. You realise if you and I had kids, they'd probably turn out like Rachel

"Somehow! Some day! Somewhere!"They were both breathing hard as they finished, their faces just inches apart. If her life were a musical, this was the part where the orchestra would swell, the audience holding its breath as the dashing leading man and beautiful young ingénue realised they could deny their feelings no longer

"Look," said Kurt, "I know that we've had a bit of a rocky rivalry-turned-friendship, and I realise that - if viewed from a certain perspective - that could seem like the perfect set-up for a Hollywood rom-com starring Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant, but there's a key difference between those stories and this one: Hugh Grant didn't want to run off with Colin Firth." He paused, looking thoughtful. "Well, except maybe in the Bridget Jones sequel - there were some seriously heated looks during that fight scene

D'aww. This was amazing. Everyone felt so in character and Kurt's talk with Rachel was beautiful. Now they can be BFFs! :D (and lol about Finn being mad at Kurt... hahaha.)

Woohoo, I check for an update and you've finished the whole thing!
I loved this fic. Rachel is in her place of maximum delusional fantasy, which is always hilarious, and Kurt being totally resigned as long as he gets to make her wear decent clothing is pretty darling. I love his and Blaine's ways of dealing with this, and how certain they are about each other even though their relationship is still so young. *sigh*
She shook her head again. "But, you and I would be so compatible. I mean, we like the same movies and songs, we have the same hopes and dreams. No one else understands me like you do. I mean, where else am I going to find a guy who can appreciate Barbara and Patty like you?" She looked down, blinking away her tears. "Where am I going to find someone who will put up with all of my crazy moments instead of just leaving me when I screw up?"
This is the part where I wanted to shake Rachel and say "You can totally still have that with Kurt! It's called being a friend." But the girl has so little experience with that, I can

*Sporfle!* So true, Kurt. Not sure if an angst meme response is supposed to make me shout out laughter, but it works for me ;-)
