He walked in the door feeling…well he wasn't quite sure what he was feeling. Frankly, he wasn't sure he wanted to feel anything since if he did it would probably be an overwhelming sense of rejection. He shoved his keys in his pants pocket as he hung up his letterman's jacket and ran his hand across the back of his neck. The ring box that had weighed so heavily in his pockets for days was no longer there, but the ring wasn't exactly where he thought it would be either. After his proposal and Rachel's stunned response of needing time, he had given her the box to keep while she thought about it. Frankly, he was surprised she wanted time-didn't she want to elope like, two years ago? Maybe if he could have found those damn airplane cups he could have made the moment better and she would have said yes? It's all so confusing to him, but hey when is his relationship with her in any way easy or logical? He's glad nobody else is home; he doesn't think he could handle any conversation right now. Instead, he trudges up the stairs to his bedroom fully intent on playing his Xbox and not thinking about the fact that she didn't say yes.

He can't even make it past the first level of the game before his mind drifts back to that moment in the auditorium. Why didn't she say yes? He loves her, she loves him so it should be simple. She 's supposed to say yes and they move to New York and they totally have little Jewish kids in like 10 years. For crying out loud she sang him that song in glee about how she couldn't be without him but she couldn't say yes without thinking about it? He dropped the controller on the floor as he ran his hands through his hair. His hand reached for the controller but as he grabbed it, he noticed his ipod right next to it. He glances around his room for the first time, noticing it's a pit. With the way his day is going he's shocked he didn't step on the damn ipod and break it. He continues holding it for a second just turning it over in his hands. Maybe listening to some music while he plays will help him get past the first level of the game. He puts it on shuffle and sets it back on the floor so he can get back to his game. The first song that came on made him drop the controller all over again.

It's so them. He's not sure when he put this song on his ipod and he'd totally kick Puck's ass if Puck made one smartass comment about Finn having Snow Patrol on his ipod. All he knows is that he has to talk to Rachel like now. He suddenly doesn't care that she needs time; he needs to tell her how he's feeling and he might explode if he doesn't. He grabs his ipod and shoves his converse back on and runs out to his truck pausing only for a moment to text her to say he's coming over.

On the short drive to her house he listens to the song nonstop, trying to memorize the words exactly so when he sees her he can use them to explain the feelings rushing through him. Usually it's the other way around, Rachel using some piece of music to explain to him how she's feeling but this song, man he just needs to tell her so much with it. Confident he has the words down, he pulls his truck to a stop in front of the Berry house and just sits for a minute before grabbing the ipod and walking up to her front door to knock.

Rachel opens the door quickly and ushers him inside. Her hands are twisting together over and over and he wants to tell her it's ok, that he gets that she needs time. The words get stuck in his throat though so he just asks her to sit on the couch and not say anything again. Her mouth opens to protest, but he cuts her off with a quiet please. She sits back on the couch and bites her lower lip, just waiting for him to break up with her. She watches in confusion as he takes his ipod and plugs it in to her speaker system. She's even more surprised when the song comes on-when the hell did Finn start listening to snow patrol? Where was his Journey or Hall &Oates? She shook her head as if to clear the confusion as Finn knelt in front of her and began to sing.

"We'll do it all; everything on our own. We don't need anything or anyone. If I lay here, if I just lay here would you lie with me and just forget the world" He was staring so intently into her eyes that Rachel could feel herself blush. She was getting more and more confused; if he was going to dump her couldn't he just do it and storm out again? Why on Earth was he serenading her and not letting her speak? She really had something important to tell him!

Finn continued singing the song to her hoping she understood where he was going with this. He came to his favorite line in the song and touched her cheek, forcing her to look at him as he sang to her,"All that I am, all that I ever was is here in your perfect eyes they're all I can see". He could see her eyes tearing up and hoped he could get through the song without losing it himself. He finishes the song, wiping his thumb across her cheek as a tear escapes. He goes to pause his ipod before some stupid song like "Fight for your right to party" or something came on and totally killed the mood.

He turns back to her, ready to give her his second speech of the day. He starts talking about how it doesn't matter that she needs time and how he should have been more prepared for his proposal and where the hell did she get those damn airplane cups? All that matters is that they're going to be together forever whether or not they get engaged today or in 5 years;though honestly, please God don't make him wait 5 years. He can't control his word vomit and doesn't notice that she's gotten up from the couch and is standing in front of him until he feels her hug him tightly. Absentmindedly, he kisses the top of her head, mumbling sorry just one more time.

She squeezes him tightly before tilting her head back to look at him and asks him if she can talk yet. He gives a nervous chuckle as he rubs the back of his neck before saying of course. He stands still, waiting for her rejection, eyes closed because he can't look at her now when he knows she's going to say no. Gently, she places her left hand on his cheek, pulling his face towards hers before she tells him to open his eyes and look at her. She moves her hand from his cheek and he sees it then catching the sunlight from the drapes. She's wearing his ring. Holy crap, she's actually wearing the ring. As the grin starts to form on his face she pulls his face down to his whispering yes right before she kissed him.

He thought of the lyrics one more time as he sat with Rachel on the couch and discussed what this all meant for them. "I don't know where, confused about how as well just know that these things will never change for us at all." It couldn't be more true-he didn't know what was going to happen in the future, all he knew was that he loved her and always would, no matter what the future held.
