I suddenly feel a cool rag on my head. Urgh. Why do I feel like shit? Oh yeah, Quinn, kissing, mono... I open my eyes and see Rachel standing over me with that sad look on her face. Fuck. Now I feel even worse... What Quinn said earlier is still haunting me. Do I still stare at rachel? I told Rachel it was over during Christmas, though. Why did Quinn say I needed to figure it out?

"Where's Quinn?" She asks me. Of course, she brings up Quinn. I tell her that Quinn's mom picked her up a few hours ago.

"Quinn really is very pretty," Rachel adds. What is she talking about. Yeah, Quinn's smokin' but so is Rachel!

"You don't have to do that," I say, gesturing towards the washcloth on my head. I am trying to change the subject cuz I really don't want to talk about Quinn with Rachel of all people.

"No, I would do it for anyone," she tells me, pressing it down on my forehead again. I try to smile at her. Then she adds "she's prettier than me..." Crap. why would she say that? Quinn is the type of girl you would see in a magazing or something. The cute perfect girl. But Rachel, Rachel is so gorgeous. It's her little imperfections that make her so perfect. They are both beautiful in their own ways...

"Would you stop?" I ask her, then add "you're beautiful." And I mean it with every bit of honestly inside of me.

"I know she is," Rachel tells me. Wait, what? Did I not just tell her that she is beautiful? "It meant so much to me that you chose me over her. Girls like me don't get chosen over girls like her very often..." What does she mean? Girls like her and girls like Quinn? I am so confused right now! " Did you kiss her? Like Santana said.." Crap. she just had to ask that, didn't she? I remember at the beginning of the year when i promised no more lies. I have to tell her the truth.

"Yeah, but i just needed to get it out of my system.." I tell her.

"So, what did it feel like? When you kissed her?" Once again, I have to tell her the truth.

"Fireworks."

"Did you see fireworks when you kissed me?" she asks. Fuck. Did I? I remember being so happy when i kissed Rachel. How when she wasn't around I would miss kissing her so much that i would sit for hours and think of how her lips felt...But did I see fireworks? Now I kinda want to kiss her again, just to see. But I've already gotten myself in too deep with all this Quinn shit already. I realize I am taking too long to think this over when Rachel gets up to leave.

"Rachel, wait!" I use every bit of strength i have to get myself to sit up.

"No," she tells me. "It's good. Thank you. You've given me the strength to move on. I know now there's nothing here for me anymore..."

"That's not the truth!" I say. "I still..." I almost tell her just how beautiful she is. How much I...I love her. How great it felt to kiss her. Almost. "I'm just so confused in my head right now..." i say instead, hoping she gets the point without me actually having to say it...

"No, it's okay. Now I'm free to pursue my dreams without anything holding me back. And you've actually inspired my song selection for this week's love song assignment. Feel better, Finn." She turns around to leave. I sigh and lay back down. As I close my eyes I hear her start to softly sing the beginning of the song 'Firework' by Katy Perry...
