Well, This is a Glee FanFic obviously. I love Finn and Rachel, well Glee. Lol. Can't wait to see them live. This story takes place after High School. :) Hope you like it. Please R&R xxx
Living with Finn Hudson was one of my dreams fulfilled and ticked off my list. We lived in a small house in Ohio. Unfortunately, the second part of my dream hadn't come true. I didn't live in the Broadway Capital of the planet, New York. I also wasn't a big Broadway star or anything close to that, because living in Ohio not many dreams came true. So, I guess living with Finn was my only dream that have come true.
I laid in bed and looked up the ceiling making out unseen patterns. Thinking of the things, I hadn't yet began to achieve or hadn't by the time I thought I would by 25. Finn though did help cancelling on all this out, just because he loved me. I never thought a annoying, over- talented (which isn't a bad thing) girl like me would ever be so lucky.
I pulled the blanket off me and slid into my pink dressing gown that Finn had brought me for Christmas once, along with many other things. I tied it around my waist and walked downstairs. The smell of toast and butter filled my nose and I smiled. Finn was making breakfast. Finn always made me breakfast if I woke up later than usual. I walked into the kitchen and he didn't notice.
"Uh um." I said loudly.
He didn't turn his head but he did speak.
"You know that's not how we say good morning in this house." He smirked.
I shook my head and walked over to him. I kissed him on the lips and pulled away but he grabbed my waist and pulled me closer to him.
"Last night was amazing, if you know what I mean." He winked.
I shook my head again and smiled at him.
"The whole world knows what you mean, Finn."
"I can't help it. I'm in love."
"I know, Finn. Because I am too." I smiled, kind of embarrassed. But didn't know why? We had been seeing each other for years, so why get embarrassed anymore? Because I am kind of stupid.
The doorbell rang, interrupting my ramblings and the moment. I kissed Finn on the cheek before I walked down the hallway to see who was at the door. I opened it and there was my old school teacher/ Glee director and my old school guidance councillor who were now married. Emma and Will Schuester.
Emma had her bright hair in the same style she always had. With a cardigan and a matching skirt with heels. She had a bright white shirt underneath her purple cardigan. She wore a pearl necklace and her large brown eyes looked happy to see me.
Will had a grey shirt with a dark blue tie with jeans. The same style of clothing he had always had. Kurt would love to give him a make over and possibly Emma too. They did need to find some different clothes after all these years, I mean I did. But the clothes, kind of made them who they are and that I would want to change them in a million years.
"Hi, Rachel."
"Hey, guys. What's up?"
"Nothing, just stopped by for a chat. Is that okay?" Will said, thinking that they should leave.
"Yeah, of course. Come on in."
They came in and talked to me and Finn about the Glee club when we were in school. They also told us that McKinley had two jobs opening up one Coach and the other a director for Glee Club. Finn already agreed to go for the job as the Coach and everyone waited for me to apply for the director of Glee Club.
"No, I'm not going for the director. I have a audition today for Les Mes today and I don't want to become some singer that couldn't make it. I am gonna make it big, sorry."
They stayed for half hour after that and left, both clearly disappointed that I hadn't jumped for joy when I heard about the Director's job. I mean, any school would be lucky to have me coaching them for Glee, they would win, win, win and win. But my heart lies, have and always will lie with Broadway and the West End.
Finn left for the interview at McKinley shortly after. So, I had a nice shower and got dressed ready for today's audition for Les Mes. I couldn't wait, I had been waiting and waiting for this my entire life. I practiced and practiced and today was the day. I looked at myself in the mirror and the light bulbs were all lit up making me feel like a Broadway star. I looked fairly pretty and smiled to myself.
"Rachel Barbra Berry. Today is the day." I smiled at myself.
I jumped downstairs and grabbed my car keys. I pulled on my white coat and headed out. First stop, Audition, Second Stop, Quinn's. I put the key's in the ignition and turned on the radio before driving off. The song on the radio surprised me, immensely. Don't Stop Believing by Journey.
I hadn't heard the song in years. I think the last time I had heard it was when we sang the song at Regionals. Just the thought of being back in Glee Club made me smile. I had so many friends now thanks to one Club. I had so many memories from one Club, it was unbelievable. When I joined Glee I thought it would make me popular and give me more chances to shine, but I was wrong. It made me special instead, in different ways that then already was.
It took me a few minutes to realise that I drove past the place where my audition was taken place. I laughed absentmindedly and took the turn back. I parked outside the building that looked like it belonged in New York, not Ohio.
I walked through the door and give my name to the receptionist who put on a fake smile and asked me to take a seat. There were many other girls there and some boys auditioning for the male lead. I recognised no one which was a good thing, none of them had the power of using their professional status against me.
My name was called out and a young girl with blonde hair, that kinda reminded me of Brittany gestured to me to follow her. She lead me into a empty room with three middle-aged people sat behind a large wooden desk. The girl that lead me in here, nodded briefly to the judges and walked out.
"Your name?" The man said in the middle.
He had grey hair and blue eyes. He was the most relaxed out of the three people before me. He had a similar shirt on that Will had worn today but he had black trousers on, not Will's infamous jeans. He smiled, politely at me.
"Rachel Barbra Berry. I'm gonna sing On My Own from this musical, of course."
"Of course." He mumbled.
As I sang the lyrics, I was back in the McKinley Auditorium singing for my Glee audition. Something I hadn't been nervous about at all, I mean look how talented I am? When I shut my eyes, I saw Mr Schue sitting in front of me and writing notes down as I sang. Ha, I just called Will Mr Schue. God, I hadn't called him that since High School.
I finished the song and opened my eyes, sinking back into reality. The three judges were talking to each other in hushed voices, hiding their faces with paper. I tapped my finger against my leg waiting for them to turn to look at me and finally they did. The man in the middle spoke again.
I opened the house door with the keys. I had just come back from Quinn's and told her about the Audition and Journey on the radio. We also caught up with each other's lives and gossiped immensely about other people's lives.
I heard a Basketball game on the TV when I shut the door behind me. I walked into the living room and saw my boyfriend lead across the Couch, eyes fixed on the game. That is of course, until he had seen me. When he did, he jumped up and kissed me on the lips, a grin on his perfect face.
"Guess What?"
"Guess What?" We both said, in comical unison.
"You go first." I told him. His news could hardly compare to mine so I let him go first so I could have the bigger reception.
"I got the job! I'm the new coach at McKinley High!"
He had never looked happier and it ruined my news because he couldn't have a job here. Because, because he had to come with me. He had to.
"Awesome." I said. Trying to hide my disappointment because he would obviously choose me, right?
"Your turn."
"Oh…um.. The audition went well, really well in fact. They gave me the lead role, there and then."
"That's great." He said picking me up around the waist and spinning me around. Once, he put me back down I decided to break the news to him.
"Finn, the shows in New York. I'd have to move to New York."
His smile slowly faded and he let go of me.
"You…you can't leave…me."
I turned confused. Did I say I was leaving him? No. He must be confused, I know he's not the sharpest tool in the shed but I thought it would be quite clear and what we would do about New York.
"I'm not. Your coming with me."
His eyes hardened and I could see him holding back his frustration.
"What? Didn't you just here what I said? I got a job, Rachel! I can't just leave! I told you for years that I always wanted to be a Coach and now because your dreams coming true. You me to throw mine away and come with you?"
"Well, yeah. I love you. You love me. That's what couples do."
He bit his lip and that's how I knew he was getting mad at me.
"Rachel! I love you, yeah! But I'm not throwing my dream away! To live yours!"
I fought back the tears and shook my head. No, this couldn't be happening. We were just having a fight. He would soon see sense and come running to me right? To be honest I wasn't so sure he would this time.
"But I'm never gonna see you." I said, the tears flooding down my cheek. "How am I gonna get used to that?"
He shut his eyes and I could see tears running down his face too. This was hurting him too. That had to mean something.
"Then you better leave now. Practice makes perfect, huh?"
"You want me to leave?"
He breathed in and out and then slowly turned away from me.
"I mean it, Rachel. I love you but this relationship has two people in it. Not just you. I can't believe you would want me to throw away my dream. I'm fed up of it always being about you. It's always about you."
"No, Finn. Please, we love each other. We can make it work." I was practically begging now.
"Go. Rachel. It's over."
I stayed there for two minutes, two stunned and surprised to move or react. I never thought this would end. Never. But I wouldn't leave without saying the last word.
"Goodbye Finn. I love you."With that said, I walked out of our house. Shut the door behind me and stepped into the sudden rain. The rain showing me what my life was going to be with out Finn Hudson, always raining never sunshine but being in New York in Les Mes would be my umbrella. Shielding me from the rain for as long as it could. Until the rain disappeared, until I finally moved on which could take years because Finn Hudson was my perfect match in every way.
