A/N: Hope the above potential filler doesn't mind me cutting in.
This was started quite a while ago (long before we started getting spoilers for the first half of S3), so let's just ignore the fact that one of the song choices ended up being used on the show.
Set somewhere between 'Born This Way' and 'Prom Queen', so Rachel and Kurt's friendship is still in the middle of that awkward transition phase. Big thanks to those who offered encouragement/concrit. This was also partially inspired by a prompt here (http://glee-angst-meme.livejournal.com/3065.html?thread=4898041#t4898041)"All right, guys, settle down

Mr. Schuester frowned uncertainly before turning his attention back to the rest of the club. "Um...okay, why don't we give someone else a shot this time?" he asked, looking to each of the guys hopefully.
Rachel's shoulders drooped, her plans for a heartfelt duet with Finn dashed. Her disappointment only grew as the other boys remained silent behind her, Sam looking bored while Mike and Artie just stared uncomfortably at the wall. Without Finn, their club was sorely lacking a strong leading man. How could she be expected to shine without a proper partner backing her up?
Suddenly, Kurt stood, wearing that familiar haughty expression as he made his way to the bottom of the risers. "I suppose it's up to me to do this song justice, then," he said, raising an expectant eyebrow at Rachel. "Phantom may be overrated, but it's still a classic

Kurt held her gaze as he drew her toward him, taking a step back for each one she took forward, as if leading her by some invisible leash. There was something captivating in his expression, something she'd never really noticed before. It was as if she were seeing him for the first time, and she couldn't look away.
"I am the mask you wear-"
"-It's me they hear."It suddenly struck her how attractive Kurt was when he was singing. She'd never really noticed it before, but the way he'd been wearing his hair lately made him look more mature, and his most recent growth spurt meant that she really had to look up to meet his eyes. He was more confident, too - ever since he'd come back from Dalton. He seemed so at home in his own skin. Genuine self-confidence was a very good trait to have; it was the sign of a true star. Finn had admittedly been lacking in it, but Kurt wore it in every expression and movement, his long fingers beckoning her forward

A/N: Thank you for the kind words! And to the OP, I'm glad this is what you were looking for - I hope the rest of it won't disappoint. For the record, this fic is completely written (it clocked in somewhere just shy of 12,000 words), but it might take me a few days to finish editing and posting it, so I appreciate your patience in the meantime!"For the last time, Finn, I'm not helping you turn our riding lawn mower into a go-kart

"I realised I never gave you anything to welcome you back into our group, especially after that flash mob you and Puck organised for me," she said. "I know it hasn't been easy for you this year, so I got you something that I think will help."
Accepting the present hesitantly, Kurt paused as he looked down at the photo frame.
"...This is a picture of John Travolta and Olivia Newton John in Grease with our heads glued onto it."
She beamed. She'd realised belatedly that she didn't really have any pictures of the two of them together, but this was even better. Sandy and Danny were just some of the roles they could play together once they were famous and on Broadway. She'd spent most of the night watching Evita on DVD and envisioning their revival of it - Kurt would be the perfect Che to her Eva Perron

Rachel nodded, looking up at Kurt through her eyelashes - which Blaine now realised were thickly coated in mascara. He'd never thought Rachel was that into makeup. Even on their date, she'd barely worn any, though that could've been due in part to her Jennifer Cavalleri costume. She always seemed to go more for the 'natural' look - or, as Kurt had phrased it, the 'I don't know an eyebrow pencil from a Sesame Street crayon' approach

So, I actually have a fic planned that fits this *perfectly*.
I've got you covered ;)

I can't help imagining Rachel singing with Kurt while thinking "This is it. This is my soulmate!"

Oh, this is wonderful so far! Rachel's selfish obliviousness is actually kinda cute.
