Hey guys! I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while I've had way too much homework to write anything. One day I got this idea for a new story and I started writing right away! So what if it means sleep deprivation, no biggie! The rating is T but that might change to M as the story goes on;)This is only my second story ever, but I've definitely improved I think! Hope you guys like it! It's loosely based off one of my favorite shows White Collar but the characters will be strictly Glee so it's not a crossover

(I do not own Glee or any of its characters!)

Don't Steal My Heart: Chapter One

"Shit!" Finn rubbed his head, that was the third pole he'd walked into this morning! He was so out of it and having to text on his phone and walk the daunting streets of Manhattan at the same time was almost a death sentence.

Ever since Finn had been promoted to head detective of the White Collar crime unit of the FBI he was constantly getting texts. It also didn't help that his enormous fingers pressed three buttons on the touchscreen at once.

Sighing he slipped the phone into his dark blue suit pocket giving up the texting for a while, he was anxious to see how this upcoming case would go.

As Finn passed the bright lights of Broadway he remembered the time when his step brother Kurt had dragged him to one of the shows, Les Miserables. Finn really didn't want to go but Kurt insisted saying that they just casted a new Epony, wait no that wasn't the name… Eponine! Yes, that was the name, apparently her reviews had been fabulous, and Kurt was practically bouncing on the leather seat of the taxi on the way to the theatre…

Finn was half asleep in his seat and every couple minutes Kurt had to elbow him to keep him awake. It had been about the fourth time Finn's eyes started to droop when the most beautiful voice he had ever heard flowed into his ears.

On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me

Finn could feel his mouth hanging open but he didn't care, he blinked trying to get the sleepiness out of his eyes to see who the sound was coming from. Rubbing his eyes vigourosly he couldn't seem to get the hazy spots of sleep the go away.

In the rain the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever

Finn squinted still not being able to see. Man, Broadway tickets must have bee expensive for Kurt to get seats so close the spotlights.

And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say, there's a way for us

I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone
The river's just a river
Without him
The world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere
The streets are full of strangers

I love him
But every day I'm learning
All my life
I've only been pretending
Without me
His world will go on turning
A world that's full of happiness
That I have never known

I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own

Before he knew it the song was over and he gave up trying to tell the girl by the sounds of the other people's voices, and before he knew it Kurt was waking him up to leave because the show had ended.

"Hey Kurt?" Finn asked with sleep laced heavily into his voice.

"Finn if you're going to make fun of the show I don't want to hear it, that was one of the best performances I've ever seen and-"

"Whoa there Kurt I just wanted to know that girl who sang that really sad songs name."

"Almost all of them were sad songs Finn!"

"Well fine then if you don't want to help me when I finally show a little spark in your interests that's fine with me."

Finn glanced over at Kurt knowing that he had won.

"Oh! I bet you mean Eponine!" Kurt said giddy with excitement.

"Epo-what?" Finn said confused.

"She sang On My Own?" Kurt looked at him expectantly.

Finn had to think a while realizing that was the song.

"Yeah that's it! What's her real name?"

"Rachel, Rachel Berry."

Slowly coming out of his reverie he realized that her name hadn't popped into his head for a long time, which is weird since Kurt kept him up to date on all Broadway's stars, and if anything that Rachel Berry was a star.

Never mind old memories you have work to do Hudson! He straightened his jacket as he walked into the office, this new case was important in gaining trust from his fellow detectives.

A painting, worth over 7.5 million dollars had been stolen from a gallery on the Upper East Side and replaced with an almost seamless forgery. Finn fought hard to take over this case, he knew that he was dealing with someone he had ever seen before, and whoever they were they were good…

Rachel needed to get out of here, and fast. She had just slipped the forgery into the old document's manila folder when she heard to hushed voices come from the hallway.

"So you're sure no one's home?" whispered a seductive woman's voice.

"Absolutely, my wife won't get back until three and the kids until four." A deeper male voice said back.

Rachel rolled her eyes, she was sick of running into sleazy business men cheating on their wives with some floozy. She clenched her jaw and slowly padded her way to the window, and looked down.

"Dammit!" she whispered, but she quickly covered her mouth remembering her situation. How could she forget she was on the third floor?

She quickly pulled her cell from her backpack; she groaned inwardly she was definitely going to have to say for this later.

Santana answered on the first ring "What's up Rachel?" she answered dryly.

"Uh, well I'm kind of stuck on the third floor of the Manchester hotel, but I got the bonds!" she whispered with lightning speed.

"Well, well, well, and I thought the infamous Rachel Berry, master art criminal-"

Rachel cut her off "Alleged, art criminal," she said with a smile, "So can you get me out?"

"Seeing as you're holding 5 pairs of 2 million dollar bonds I'll be there in five." Santana answered before quickly hanging up, leaving Rachel to fend for herself until she arrived…
