Finn just sat there staring in that one direction.....staring right at her, with no care in the world, and no concern as to who would also notice his antics. He didn't even worry about it anymore, and with no baby in the equation and the fact he had no more complications nor obligations to Quinn, he could go after the girl that had taken over his life in somewhat a disturbing manner, but also made him a better person and he felt that when he was with her. He knew that she liked him at some point but also realised that he had lost her trust on occasions...the words 'auditorium and bowling alley' had been replaying in his head for a while now - he actually felt quite sea-sick with those flashbacks. It was clearly going to be hard work earning her trust but he was determined that he would fight for Rachel, and make it clear how he 'can't fight this feeling anymore'.

Finn was still daydreaming when Mr Schue proposed an early finish. Had Glee club already finished....awh damn no more Rachel for the rest of the day... and his heart just started sinking. He was daydreaming so much he didn't even realised that the girl in question was stood in front of him arms crossed looking at him the way she did when he came out and said one of those big words in the wrong context or something.

'Finn, I'm rather disappointed that you displayed absolutely no interest In Glee Club today, and would rather in future in all seriousness that you do pay attention, and whilst I have your attention and I do really appreciate your current on-going issues in your personal life, but we really do need each member of the team to the one hundred per cent committed to this.'

Finn just sat there with an amused face that he couldn't help but display – he wasn't sure how to respond to her sentence...God he wasn't actually sure whether he had even understood exactly what she was even getting at, but the one word he did understand and Rachel had taught him recently was irony, and for once he was sure he had gotten it in the right context. He secretly high five himself in his head. Now getting back to Rachel......

'Sorry Rach, just well you know.....I'm still you know confused 'bout stuff like well everything really and I am committed to the club but with so much erm stuff going through my head I'm not thinking straight'.

Rachel stood there frowning, but just answered 'We really ought to consider how to improve your terminology, and possibly sway away for the word 'stuff'. Really Finn, there are words out there that you could use to explain yourself other then that one! Anyway I would really welcome it if you could keep in mind what we have discussed regarding Glee. Also if you do feel that you are ready or willing to talk about the recent events in your life, I will be here to listen as a friends always should. Goodbye Finn, I must go – my daddies will not be impressed with how I've left them waiting'.

Finn just watched her leave, watching her short skirt flapping up her legs barely covering the parts he was ashamed to admit that had thought about far too often. Today hadn't gone to plan but later when he got home he decided that there was only one thing he could do, and that would unfortunately have to involve Kurt – and he wasn't exactly Rachel's number one fan but he was willing to give it a try. Picking up his phone he bit the bullet and called Kurt..

'Hi Kurt, listen I need to ask a really big favour and I'm not sure if you'll, you know help or anything but really I really need your help man, and I don't know who else to ask that wouldn't like ask me questions that like I don't want to answer until I've.........'

'Right that's enough now Mr Hudson, whilst id love to' (really would, REALLY WOULD LOVE TO) ' hear you ramble on about whatever it is that you are trying to explain in a 'Finn' way, I do have a serious T-Zone problem that will not wait, and I've only just managed to get an emergency appointment with the salon so please make it snappy. '

'Ok, I get it..I get...do you have erm have Rachel's number? Finn was sure his own voice broke whilst those words came stumbling out in a meek fashion. He started getting all nervous and sweaty waiting Kurt's reply.

'You called me to ask for RACHEL BERRY'S NUMBER, why do you want HER number for? You know what Finn I think I'd rather not know, and I'm rather unimpressed that I'm running late over that girl. Even when she isn't here its still has something to do with her. In one word yes, I do have her number but may I just say think about what your doing. I'll forward it onto you as you sound far too desperate for your own good. Don't say I didn't warm you though......'

He honestly wasn't all that shocked by Kurt reaction..he knew that Rachel wasn't exactly popular and misunderstood but nevertheless nothing that anyone said was going to make him change what he felt for her and what he was planning to do. He waited and waited for that all important message from Kurt – he was definitely being made to wait far too long for this message and honesty he was starting to get a bit pist at him for making this simple request so long-winded. Finn's thoughts quickly turned to the five foot 2inch girl in question and how beautiful and funny she was – how intelligent and determined she was, how connected he felt to her and how badly he wanted to be with her. It was going to hard work but worth all the effort involved. He was sure she was going to make it near on impossible, as she did most things but this time he wasn't going to give up on her. Slowly he starting shutting down just laying on his bed in a placid mood, before completely drifting off into another dream embracing the singing star and all her beauty.

An hour later Finn awoke disoriented but happy and slightly disappointed that the dream had ended.....a blessing in disguise otherwise images of the mail man were a sure thing. The first thing he did was check the phone and by god he felt that he could actually kiss Kurt at that moment.....although Kurt was like gay and that would give him totally the wrong impression and he was so sure at times during Glee Kurt was staring at him in a 'I want you way' and that was.....weird way too weird. The number was here. THE NUMBER WAS HERE. RACHEL BERRY'S NUMBER WAS HERE! Now for the hard part....getting the balls to text her........half an hour later he was so frustrated with himself for just staring at the phone message and not sending it that he kicked the chair way top hard, and then his mum started shouting he got so distracted that he accidentally pressed send. He felt himself turning red then white then the nausea started as he reread the text.......

'Rach..It's Finn, u ok 2 catch up like t-day?its about well...I'd much rather say it face 2 face........its erm urgent'

The anticipation was near on killing him but she didn't make him wait at all - she never made him wait. The text message flashed up on his phone an he started grinning for the first word.

'Hello Finn, I must say I'm rather surprised to have received a text message from you, I wasn't even aware that I had informed you of my number. Would it be possible that we arranged to meet at maybe 7:30 as I do have other commitments until then, but would be more then happy to discuss whatever is currently concerning you. Rachel'

With that he whooped himself high fived himself and did the ' get in there' dancing he always did when he felt a rush of excitement.......he would have carried on if his mum hadn't been staring at him with shear amusement – her son had it bad... and all Finn could think about was 7:30.
