This started out as something rolling around in my brain as usual, I wanted to do an AU fic, but it's grown a little since then. This is for Kathy or it will be when I get more written, I hope I do the prompt I've adopted justice, it just might take me a while to get to it. It's also for the rest of the fildo's who have been nothing but supportive of my writing. XOXO!

As always, I own nothing. No copyright infringement intended. Enjoy!

Read and Review.

Hell's Angel

Rachel Berry is going home, it feels like it's been years but really it's only been a few months. A lot can happen in a few months and it will be nice to be around her old friends again, not that her friends in New York aren't great, they are, but they're all just so intense. She needs a break, and wants have some normal teenaged fun. Her father's picked her up from the airport in Columbus just after lunch and after along car ride she's finally home. Rachel takes her pink carry on bag up to her room while her Daddy brings her suitcases up for her. He places the larger one on the bench at the foot of her bed, standing the smaller one next to it.

"It's so good the have you home sweet heart." He says pulling her into a tight hug.

"I've missed you guys too Daddy." She says quietly.

"Well, I'll let you unpack some, dinner will be ready in a couple of hours."

"Alright." she says, slipping her cellphone out of her purse she quickly sends a text message to her best friend.

I'm home! Finally!

She places her phone on her bedside table and opens her suitcase. After unpacking a few things her phone chimes letting her know she's got a new text message.

I'm outside, and I've got a surprise for you.

Rachel moves to her window trying to see him, but she can't. She runs out of her room and down the stairs, slipping on her flats and flinging the front door open. Her mouth drops when she sees him leaning against a shiny black motorcycle. He's wearing a leather jacket, dark sunglasses are hiding his eyes.

"Hey Rach, welcome home. Wanna go for a ride?" He asks grinning at her holding up a pink helmet.

She squeals, jumping up and down, running over to hug him.

"Finn, when did you get a motorcycle?" She asks excitedly.

"I've had her a few weeks now. Mom wasn't thrilled of course but I took the safety course, and I've been saving all year to afford it. So what do you say, want to go for a ride?"

"Yeah, just let me go change." She says looking down at her light summer dress, not really appropriate for riding on the back of a motorcycle she thinks.

"OK, but hurry up." He says.

She runs into the house digging a pair of jeans out of the bottom of her suitcase, along with a pink baby tee. She changes quickly, pulling her hair back into a braid. She races back down the stairs, pulling her old black boots and leather jacket out of the front closet she slips them on and is back outside in record time.

Finn watches from where he sits astride the bike, as she yells to her fathers she's going out for a while but will be back in time for dinner. He smiles when he notices how cute she looks. She bounces up to him grinning like a fool.

"Your helmet, miss." He says placing it on her head and securing the chin strap. He reaches down and grabs his own helmet, sliding it over his head. "Hop on." He tells her as drops the tinted visor, turning the key as she slides in behind him, wrapping her arms tightly around him. He backs the bike off the driveway onto the road. "Hold on!" He yells over his shoulder as he puts the bike into gear and takes off down the road.

He can hear Rachel squealing behind him, as she clings to his back, her face pressed into his shoulder. He goes slow at first letting her get used to riding on a bike, as she learns to lean into him and with the bike as they make the turns he speeds up. After a while he doubles back and pulls into the park not far from her house. They climb from the bike, and Rachel walks over to an empty picnic table, she sits on top, her feet resting on the seat, she pulls the helmet from her head, placing it next to her and grins as Finn does the same.

"God I missed you." She says bumping his shoulder with her own.

"Me too Rach, me too."

"So how was this last semester?" She asks, "I didn't hear from you as much, you must have been busy."

"I was, school was all right; we won the football championship again this year, that was awesome. I've been working at Burt's shop a lot, every weekend, more now that schools out, it's how I'm able to afford the bike."

"What does Quinn think of the bike?" She asks mentioning Finn's cheerleader girlfriend.

"Um. I really wouldn't know." He says sheepishly.

"What happened? You guys were so happy when I was home at Christmas."

"Things changed, we changed. I realized we wanted different things, she broke up with me. She's dating some hotshot from another school now." He looks at her giving her that lopsided smile, that makes her heart flutter in her chest.

"Wow, I thought for sure you guys would be together forever."

"As I said things change. I was upset at first, but really I got over her. I was never in love with her, she was just the girl I was supposed to be with you know. The jock and the cheerleader."

Rachel looks up at his handsome face and wonders if now that Quinn is out of the picture that maybe she will get her chance. She knows there has always been something more between them than friendship, but they never talk about it, never bring it up.

"How's New York? Your Dad's gave me the video of you in the spring musical. You were awesome as Janet. I can't believe you guys got to do Rocky Horror Picture Show, they'd never let us do something like that here."

"New York, is great I love it there. I've done a few auditions for off Broadway stuff, I haven't got anything yet they all tell me the same thing. I'm good but too young, come back and see them when I'm 18. School is busy with classes and shows, and stuff. I'm glad to be home though. How's everyone else?"

"They're good, you know same old same old. Everyone dating everyone, people having different drama every week. Living with Kurt is an adventure most days."

"Did Burt get the other room finished or are you still in the basement with Kurt?"

"He finished it a couple of months ago, so I moved up there. It's great, it's got a door out to the deck so I can sneak in and out without being noticed."

"Yeah I'm sure, all those football parties and Halo marathons make quiet entrances necessary." She teases.

"Oh, really is it any different in your dorm. You know all that sneaking in after lights out, come on Rach I know you can't resist a good party."

"True, but the consequences are bigger if I get caught, I come home, you just get grounded. So there hasn't been much of that this year. I've been getting really serious about school I want to get into NYU or Juilliard so I've been putting in the work."

"Well, I hope that fun Rachel is home this summer, because we're going to a party at Puck's tonight, in honor of your homecoming of course."

"Like Noah needs a reason to throw a party." She says laughing.

"True, but he threw one last week because it was Thursday, so it's good to have something real to celebrate for once." He grins at her.

"If that's the case, you better get me home. My Dad's are expecting me for dinner, and I still need to unpack." She stands placing the helmet back on her head as she heads for the bike, Finn groans when he notices how hips sway, he swallows hard thinking it's going to be a long summer.

He hops up after her, trying his best not to check out her ass, but he's a guy and while she's his best friend, he still knows an attractive woman when he sees one. She's changed so much in the three years she's been in New York. Gone is the bratty spoiled child, who knew just which buttons to push to get her way, she's been replaced with this stunning woman who's confident in her own skin, and sure of her talent.

Finn drops her at home a few minutes laster, promising to be back for her later with Kurt, in the family SUV. Puling his bike back onto the road he gives her one more wave as she slips inside before heading for home.

"What are you so smiley about?" Kurt asks him when he enters the kitchen

"Nothing. Oh we're taking your car to Puck's tonight, and we need to stop on the way and pick up Rachel."

"Aha! I knew it was something." Kurt says smirking over his glass of juice. "You gonna tell her?"

"Tell her what?" Finn asks.

"That you're in love with her."

"It's not like that."

"Right, that's why you've watched every musical and play her dad's have brought around a thousand times."

"Kurt, leave it alone. She's in New York, she's never coming home to stay. Why start something when it can never have chance."

"You know they have Universities in New York too right."

"Kurt, I said leave it alone." Finn tells his stepbrother, stomping out and into his room.

Finn sits down at his computer, opening it up and looking at the picture of him and Rachel taken back at Christmas, they'd all gone sledding and Mercedes had snapped a picture of him giving her a face-wash, they're both laughing as she's trying to push him away. Her cheeks are pink from the cold, but her eyes are sparkling with happiness. He sighs deeply slamming it shut again, he lays on his bed ignoring the voice in his head until his mom calls him for dinner.

Finn just glares at Kurt all through dinner, while his brother chats happily with their parents. He finishes his plate, and excuses himself, to go and get ready for the party. He wears the blue shirt Rachel bought him for Christmas, but it doesn't mean anything, he just likes it and it's comfortable.

"Kurt let's go!" Finn calls down to the basement impatiently. "Rachel's waiting for us."

"Hold on Finn, I'm almost ready." Kurt says brushing past the taller boy heading for the front closet. He returns a minute later with his jacket.

Finn climbs into the passenger seat and pulls out his phone to text Rachel that they are on their way, and will see her soon. Kurt drives carefully the few blocks to Mercedes house, Finn jumps out to go get her. Running up the steps he rings the bell, she opens the door stepping outside almost immediately.

"Hey Cedes." He say using her nickname.

"White Boy." She Replies, as she locks the door behind her.

Finn climbs into the back this time so he doesn't have to be in the middle of them fighting over the stereo. Kurt pulls away from the curb and continues on towards Rachel's. A couple of minutes later he stops in front of her house, and again Finn climbs out and heads to the door.

This time when he rings the bell her Daddy answers smiling warmly.

"Finn, good too see you again. Rachel will be right down. Come in for a minute, while you wait."

"Uh, thanks." He says nervously wiping his hands on his jeans.

"Hi Finn." Rachel says as she runs down the stairs, a few minutes later.

"Hey Rach, you look great." He says his voice cracking on the last word, blushing slightly, hoping she won't notice. "You ready? Kurt and Mercedes are waiting out front."

"Yeah. Let's go. Bye Dads!" She calls grabbing her purse.

"Bye sweetie, have a good time. Home by 1am." Her Dad calls after us.

"OK!" She calls back, pulling Finn out of the house. She bounces over to the car and squeals seeing her two other friends.

"Hey Diva." Mercedes greets her warmly.

"Rachel." Kurt says grinning at her through the rear view mirror. "Cute outfit." He says raising an eyebrow in his brothers direction.

Finn groans noticing how Rachel's short skirt is when she's leaning between the seats trying to hug them both. She's wearing a short black skirt and a soft red V-neck sweater. When she sits down next to him, her skirt rides up her thighs even more and Finn gulps when he notices the black high heeled shoes strapped to her feet. He's sure she's trying to kill him.

They get to Puck's house all the way across town a little while later, they're all laughing when they walk through the door. The party already in full swing.

"Well, look who the cat dragged in!" Pucks says picking Rachel up hugging her and spinning her around.

"Hello Noah, I understand this little shin dig is in my honor." She says.

"It is, and as such anytime you need a drink tonight I will be your personal butler."

"Well, good, then go get me a drink!" She laughs pushing him in the direction of the kitchen.

He returns a minute later with a wine cooler, "Here drink this." He says, handing it to her.

"Mmm, Pink my favorite."

"Make yourselves at home, I need to go make the rounds, don't want anyone having sex in my room tonight. Unless it me of course." He waggles his eyebrows suggestively.

"Pig!" Mercedes says, turning away linking her arm through Kurt's pulling him away to get a drink.

"Rach, I'm gonna go find a drink." Finn says a little uncomfortably noticing they've been left alone.

"Sure, I'm going to go mingle. I think I see Tina over there."

"OK." He says.

Rachel pushes her way through people dancing in what is normally Noah's living room, towards Tina, and her other friends.

"Hey guys." She says smiling, taking a sip of her drink.

"Hey stranger, how's the big city?" Tina asks, hugging her.

"Amazing, I wish you guys could see it." She beams.

She falls into comfortable conversation with everyone, the girls all pull her up to dance to a few songs. Finn watches from where he's talking to some of the football team. He laughs when she and Kurt lean against each other moving to the music, laughing hysterically, clearly they've both had a couple of drinks.

Finn excuses himself and slides up behind Rachel "Hey, having a good time?" He asks, bending down so he's speaking into her ear.

"Finn! Hi!" She giggles throwing her arms around him.

"Whoa! How many of those coolers have you had?"

"Dunno, they taste pink, I like pink. It's my favorite color you know."

He wraps an arm around her, steadying her. "OK, I think you've had enough." He laughs, and takes the bottle from her hand and places it on a near by table. From across the room someone turns down the music, and yells "Truth or Dare!"

Everyone gathers around in a circle. Mike starts everyone off, "Santana, Truth or Dare?"

"Duh, dare. C'mon do your worst."

"Um, how about I dare you not to be a bitch." Someone says, and a few people snicker at the comment.

"I dare you to go next door and get Pucks neighbors underwear." Mike says, smiling.

"Easy, I'll be back in two minutes." She says hoping up, and disappearing out the door. Sure enough two minutes later she returned with an enormous pair of granny panties.

"OK, I don't want to know how you got those off Mrs. Finkelbaum." Puck shudders.

"My turn. Kurt, Truth or Dare?" She exclaims.

"Truth." He says not wanting to have to do a dare.

"Have you and that Blaine dude done it?"

"No." He simply says blushing a little. "Next, Finn, Truth or Dare?" he smirks at his brother.

"Truth." Finn says from his place next to Rachel, she's leaning against him a little.

"Who are you in love with?" he asks pointedly.

"Uh, did I say truth?" he says uncomfortably "I meant dare."

"Fine, chicken. I dare you have seven minutes in heaven with Rachel."

Rachel just giggles and claps, Finn swears under his breath. "Fine." He growls at his brother, pulling Rachel up and over to the closet. He opens the door pushes Rachel inside and slams it behind them.

The closet is crowded, and all the coats in there make it difficult to stand comfortably, so Rachel slides to the floor.

"Finn Hudson, I believe you owe me a kiss." She says tugging on his hand.

He sinks down opposite her, he takes a deep breath. In all the years they've been friends he can only remember kissing Rachel once and they were seven so that doesn't count. She staring at him, her big brown eyes waiting for him to make a move. He slides closer, placing a hand on her shoulder, pushing her hair back a little as he does.

Leaning in he watches as she licks her bottom lip slowly, his own breath catching in his throat, he wonders if she knows how sexy that is. He closes his eyes and presses his lips softly against hers. Her mouth is open slightly, and she responds instantly, moving them over his.

He feels the tension that was nervously coiled in the pit of his stomach release as warmth spreads over him, igniting a fire in his veins unlike anything he's ever felt before. Her tongue teases his bottom lip and he opens his mouth, and holy shit her tongue is in his mouth and it's soft and warm and she takes like the berry cooler she was drinking. His hand moves, his fingers slide into her hair as the tiny hands that were resting against his chest slide around his neck, pulling herself closer.

He wraps an arm around her back, as she crawls into his lap. He leans back against the wall for support, and straightens his legs as best he can, his movements cause her to slide against him. He's suddenly very aware of where their bodies are touching. He tilts her head changing the angle as they continue to kiss, their tongues dueling. The hand he has on back slips down until it's cupping her ass. She moans when he gives it a gentle squeeze.

Her teeth sink into his lips when he does it again, her hips rocking against him. She can feel how hard he is underneath her. Something in her minds tells her they shouldn't be doing this, but it just feels so good. His other hand is finding its way under the hem of her sweater, his thumb brushing against the soft skin of her stomach when the door suddenly opens.

"Time!" Someone calls out, and Rachel pulls away from Finn slowly. Their lips are swollen, their breathing is raged, her eyelids are heavy.

"Umm yeah. Well, OK then." She scrambles to get off Finn's lap before this get any more embarrassing for either of them. Finn emerges a minute later.

"I'm done with this, someone else can have a turn, I need to get a drink." He says stumbling towards Pucks kitchen. He can hear everyone laughing in the other room from where he has his head stuffed in the fridge looking for a soda.

He hears someone clear their throat behind him. He knows it's her, he grabs two sodas before turning around and offering one to her. "Soda?" He asks, not meeting her eyes.

"Yeah, thanks." She says and he slides in across the island towards her.

"Finn, about what happened back there." She begins.

"Rachel, don't. Can we just not?" He pleads.

She looks at him sadly for a moment before nodding her head softly. She can't help but feel like they'd crossed a line and it would be hard to go back to the way things were. She picks up the soda and rejoins the party leaving Finn alone in the kitchen.
