Rachel berry was nervous.

As she walked up to the house, she took a deep breath and rang the doorbell. Just as she expected, Mrs. Hudson answered the door.

"Hi Rachel," she said, a warm smile on her face, "Finn's not home right now, he's at football practice."

"Oh, I know," Rachel replied, "I actually came to see Kurt, if that's alright."

"Of course, come on in," Mrs. Hudson said, holding the door open for her.

"Thank you," Rachel said in return, stepping in and taking in her surroundings.

Mrs. Hudson always made Rachel feel welcome every time she visited, as if she was a part of the family. After all, this place had become a second home to her, with the mother she's never had and the traditional family structure that she's always secretly craved. And although she loves her Dads, she doesn't feel the same motherly warmth when spending time with Mrs. Hudson. Usually during her many visits to the Hummel/Hudson household, she would be surrounded with a wonderful homey feel. But even the comfort of familiarity couldn't settle her nerves as to what she was really here for.

Though Kurt did not have a high status of popularity or power, something about him always intimidated her. It wasn't just the fact that they both took interest in the same stylings of music or that besides her he had the most theatre experience in glee. It was the way he carried himself, so confident and carefree in the fact that he's different. And although she is not one to let what other people think of her control her life, she has her moments in which her insecurities pop in, preventing her from having complete faith in herself.

But recently, Finn has shared with her that Kurt hasn't been himself lately. In fact, he's been avoiding him completely and Finn, being the clueless stud he is, has no idea why. He told her it all started after regionals, but between now and then he hasn't found anything that would make him act this way. But, unknowingly to Finn, Rachel's intuition is telling her something else.

Though Finn had told her that Kurt was over him, Rachel wasn't so sure. From what she's gathered from the past year, Kurt liked Finn a lot, probably almost as much as she did. And from experience, she knows that feelings like that don't go away overnight.

Normally, Rachel wouldn't bother with Kurt. After all, she and he haven't been the best of friends, let alone the fact that he's made it clear he doesn't like her. But Finn is hurting. He and Kurt have become close and she knows this situation is upsetting him. Although she doesn't care much for Kurt, she cares for Finn. And if her hunch is correct, she has to make this right, for Finn.

"Well, you know the way to the boys' room," said Mrs. Hudson, unknowingly breaking Rachel out of her daze.

"Oh, right," Rachel said, remembering why she was here. "Thank you again."

She walked through the halls and found the door to Kurt/Finn's room

"Here goes nothing," she muttered to herself, opening the door.
