Cherish These Few Seconds

Finn and Rachel were sitting in the park. It was a little past 4:00, so most of the children were leaving. They decided they were going to have a little picnic by the lake. Rachel thought it was perfect. The sun was setting, birds were singing little songs, and there was a light breeze. She looked over to Finn, who was making a mess with his sandwich, and not really caring.

Rachel's P.O.V

He's so cute when he eats. I looked around to see if everyone left. The only people who were there was an old couple. I smiled at them and waved. I wonder if Finn and I will last that long. Finn looked over toward me. His smile turned into a frown. "What's wrong, Babe? You look sad." He looked deeply into my eyes. I couldn't lie to those eyes, that innocent face. "I was just looking at that old couple over there. Do you think we will last that long?" He smiled, "Even longer." Why does he have to be so perfect, I screamed in my head. He turned back around and started eating his sandwich again.

Finn's P.O.V

I wonder if there is any more sandwiches? I look in the basket and grab Rachels. "Hey Rach? Are you gonna eat this?" Please be no, please be no! "No, it's fine. You can have it." She didn't seem that happy when she said it. "Rachel, there has to be something else on your mind." I scoot closer to her. "You can talk to me." That always makes her crack. "Finnnnnnnn." She held that out very long. Maybe she wants to sing? "Do you wanna sing about it?" "No!, This isn't glee club Finn, we don't have to sing about all of our problems." She slapped me pleadingly. "Lets just….relax. I just wanna cherish these few seconds that we have…some alone time."

They lied there. Not caring that the sun was already setting. Or that there phone kept going off. They didn't care. They were finally in there own world, without everyone else. They wanted to stay there forever, and just cherish it.
