Hey guys. I just got back from vacation, which is why I haven't updated my other fic. But also, I am still shocked over Cory's passing. Part of me wants to continue the story to honor him, but I want your opinion. If you would like me to continue, I would appreciate it if you would comment and tell me what you think.
In the meantime, enjoy this short drabble I made. I realized that writing actually helps me, and you can never go wrong with something cute and fluffy.

Prompt: Finn buys Rachel a puppy.
"Finn! I can't believe you forgot!" she yelled. Crossing her arms in front of her chest, she huffed.
It was their first anniversary as a married couple, and he forgot. He didn't even say anything; he just treated it like any other day.
"Babe, I can explain," he pleaded, trying not to reveal his secret. Truth is, he hadn't really forgotten. His planning wasn't his best quality, and he didn't blame her for being mad, but he prayed that she would forgive her once he showed her the surprise.
Rachel stood, her eyes watering with tears. "I can't believe you would forget something so important. It is important to you, isn't it?"
He ran to her, putting his hands on her shoulder.
"Baby, of course it is. The day I married you was the best day of my whole life. It means the world to me. You mean the world to me."
She didn't speak, but kept her eyes stern. He didn't want to blow his surprise, but if he didn't do anything soon, her palm would meet his face any second.
"Do you trust me?" No answer.
"Do you trust me?" he repeated.
Reluctantly she nodded, dropping her arms. "Come on," he said, grabbing her jacket and helping her put it on. It was a cold Christmas Eve, and the last thing he wanted was a frozen wife.
Getting into the cab, he told her to close her eyes. She did as she was told, trusting Finn to guide her. He held her hand, walking inside their destination.
Yapping and whining filled the room, the smell of straw entering her nose. She scrunched up her nose, confused. "Finn Hudson, where on earth did you bring me?" He grinned happily, telling her to open her eyes.
The second she opened her eyes, she gasped. In front of her was a pen, filled with beagle puppies.
"Happy Anniversary," he told her, wrapping his arms around her from behind and kissing her cheek. Tears formed in her eyes.
"I can have one?" she asked.
"Any one you want, babe. I wanted to surprise you."
She smiled, going towards the puppies and petting a few. The owner stood by watching, chuckling softly as Rachel looked at them.
Okay, so maybe she was still mad that he hadn't made her breakfast or waken her up with celebratory sex, but this was pretty adorable.
Finally making up her mind, she found a light-colored female. She seemed gentle, yet goofy. Just like her Finn.
"This one," she said confidently, picking her up.
Paying for the puppy, Finn thanked the owner and kissed Rachel on the cheek.
Shortly after, they went to the store and purchased all the necessary supplies, making sure that the puppy was properly taken care of. Rachel even managed to find a collar with gold stars on it, which Finn thought was amusing.
"Bella," she said softly, as she stroked her head. Sitting on the couch next to Finn, she smiled. After a long pause, she turned back to him.
"I'm sorry for yelling at you. This was a really great surprise," she told Finn. "You liked it?" She nodded, kissing his lips. Reciprocating, he pulled out with a grin.
"I figured that since I'm at work, you could use some company," he reasoned.
She nodded, snuggling Bella to her chest. "Maybe in a few years, we can use some more company," she hinted.
He raised a brow, confused. "What do you mean? Like.. another puppy?
Rachel laughed. "I mean like.. a baby."
A wide smile grew on his face. "You want a baby?"
"Of course I do! Not now, of course, but.. we're married, we love each other. It's definitely something I've always wanted with you."
She paused, interrupted by Bella's kisses. "But for now we have our own little bundle of fur," she said giggling.
Looking down at her, he laughed too. "Happy Anniversary, Rachel."
"Happy Anniversary," she replied, resting her head on his shoulder.
If you would like any specific prompts, feel free to ask! But preferably happy ones ( I'm not ready for any angst yet).
