So this is my first Finchel Fic ever! I got this idea when I thought about what kind of Dad Finn would be on day and how he would handle taking care of a baby and to make a little bit more interesting I decided that they'd have twins!
Sadly I do not own Glee or any of their characters
We're getting ready for bed. Rachel's doing her nightly routine (Brush,floss,brush,exfoliate, wash, lotion all in that order) yes I know this by heart. It happens when you've lived with each other for 5 years.
"Rach, will you come to bed already! Your gonna rub your face raw"
"Finn, I am not going to rub my face raw. I'm just making sure I get down to my pores right" she declares as she sticks her head out of the bathroom door.
She goes back in and I hear the water running.
She comes back out, "You know I have to keep my skin impeccable, this is what people see when I perform. I can't have a giant pimple the size of a watermelon and it distracts them from my performance. I do not want people to know me as the girl with a watermelon on her forehead" she finally climbs into bed.
I roll my eyes.
Sometimes she can be such a drama queen. But I love her, I did marry her after all.
"Baby, your skin is perfect and if you had a pimple of the size of Texas I'd still love you" I kiss her.
I sit there watching the game and Rachel is awfully quiet.
I pause the game and turn to her, "Listen Rach, I wasn't jinxing you about the pimple, I'm sorry"
She bite her lip, "It-it's not that I just need to tell you something"
"Oh, okay what is it?"
"Well I got a call from my agent today and he told me about this audition.."
"Oh my god baby that's great!" I hug her. "Why aren't you happy?"
"I am, but the auditions in Hudson and I really don't want to leave the twins..."
Yes you heard right we had twins. When the doctor told us I almost fainted! The thought of raising one kid was kinda crazy, but two was beyond insane, but I have to tell you being a father to not just one kid, but two was pretty awesome. They are the best thing to ever happen to me since the day I met Rachel.
Ever since we moved to New York to go to school, we always talked about raising a family living in the city and it came true when our sons Christopher and Nathan were born and our life couldn't be any more perfect than it is now.
"Rachel, you have to go. You and I both know you want to go. We didn't move out here for you not to follow your dream"
"I know that, but it's different now" she says in quiet voice. "I have two babies to think of, I can't just go off to auditions like I use to" She lowers her head and I see a tear rolling down her face.
I lift up her chin with my finger so that she can face me, "Rachel, go. I will take care of the twins"
"Finn, you can't take care of one, let alone two. Remember when I let you change Christopher's diaper? You almost threw up on him"
"Babe that was a while ago, I've seen you change them thousands of time now. I can do this! Unless...you don't trust me.."
She frowns, "Honey of course I trust you. It's just..one baby is a lot of work, two is a challenge, believe me it took me a while to be able to it myself. I'm not even sure if I'm doing this super mom thing right myself" she giggles.
I cup her cheek, "You..are doing an amazing job! Your a great mom, Rach, I'm so lucky to have you as thee mother of my children" I give her a small smile.
She returns a smile and kisses me, "I love you"
"I love you too Rach"
"I think I will go"
"That's my girl" I smile kissing her forehead.
"Are you sure you can take care of the kids? I mean I can take them to-"
"Babe, I told you I can do this! Just trust me"
"Okay" she says quietly. "But what if one of them chokes or falls or hit their head-"
In true Rachel matter she's playing negative senarios in her head. I have been dealing with this for years and I know just how to shut her up.
I kiss her mid sentence.
"Rach, trust me. Nothing bad is going to happen" I whisper against her lips.
She nods.
"Now get some sleep, you've got a big day tomorrow" I smile.
"You are unbelievable, Finn Hudson she giggles as she shakes her head.
"Good night, Rachel" I chuckle turning off the light.
"Okay so they are usually hungry by 3 and they should have enough milk to last the rest of the day, oh and Nathan likes his milk a little warmer the Chris does. Also Chris has a little cough, it's nothing serious or anything, but just give him a little medicine and he should be fine..." She's going on and on like rapid fire that my head is starting to hurt.
"Rach" I say trying to calm her down.
she still going on.
"Rachel!" I say louder putting my hands on her shoulders to make her stop.
She stops and looks at me, "What?"
"Just stop, I can handle it. You need to go now or traffics going to be hell"
"It's just they have routine to keep, if you don't t!"
"Yes babe I know, I read your color coated schedules, along with the instructions you gave me" I said showing her the binder she gave me earlier in the day.
The thing about Rachel is that she loves to be organized with schedules and lists, while i just go with it. As annoying as it is I let her do those things because that how she is, although she has lighten up a bit since we started living together in college, she still likes to keep me in line with them, which is helpful. I'm so I'm grateful she helped me be more responsible.
She sighs, "I'm sorry, your right. It's just I haven't been away from them for more than a few hours" she frowns. "I'm just going to miss them so much" she says going to them.
She picks one up and then the other off of their baby seats.
"Oh my boy's, mommy's going to miss you so much" she says kissing each of them on the cheek.
She stands there still hugging them for a few moments.
I put my hand on her back "Babe, you can put them down now" I say softly.
"Right, my audition" she sniffles as she wipes a tear away. "Be good for daddy okay, I love you"
She grabs her bag and I follow her right to the door.
before opening the door she looks at me, "You know I don't have to go, it's just one audition"
"Rachel, we've been through this" I sigh, "your going to that audition and your going to blow them away just like you always do to me when I see you on stage. Your a star Rachel, you need to shine"
I see her touch the star necklace I gave her on Valentines Day all those years ago and she smiles.
"Your right, I guess I'm just nervous" she laughs.
"Don't be. Your going to do great Rachel. I believe in you. They're crazy if they don't pick you"
she puts her arms around my neck and kisses me, "Thank you for believing in me"
"Always"I say lowly. "Now go" I chuckle.
I open the door and she steps out and looks over me, pouting.
"Rach"
"Fine! I'll go" she pouts.
"That's my girl" I kiss her. "Go blow them away"
She smiles and heads down the hall.
I watch her go, until she hits the corner and I go back inside to see two babies sound asleep.
I don't know why Rachel was so worried, this is going to be a piece of cake.
