Finn Hudson is not a bright boy. He has to think a long while to understand things most of the time. Even then understanding isn't always forthcoming. So when Rachel Berry told him about Quinn and Puck, it did not register right away. He blinked at Rachel, his mind a whirl of thoughts. Things like "Rachel is pretty when she is serious, why does my chest hurt like this, Puck is my friend, Quinn had sex with Puck, Drizzle isn't mine, I love Drizzle, Rachel's eyes are sad, why is my face wet"
The moment the words "..the baby isn't yours Finn" sink in, he stiffens. He brushes past Rachel in a daze. She is trying to talk to him but he just hears a buzzing sound. He wonders briefly if this is what its like to be deaf. He brushes the wetness away from his face and steps into the glee room. He sees Puck and Puck gives him a smirk. The sound of the room comes roaring back. He looks over at Quinn, then back at Puck. Puck eyes widen just a fraction. He doesn't see the fist Finn throws at him. Finn's fist continues to swing as Puck is on the ground. He can hear Quinn crying and it just makes him angrier.
comes barrelling in and pulls Finn off Puck. He is standing there shaking, Puck eyeing him, everyone staring in shock. "Is it true?" Finn grinds out. Quinn is sobbing and she nods. He thinks he yelled at her and everyone. He storms out. Fuck his leg hurts from that goddamn chair. The baby isn't his. His mind keeps repeating it, like Sue Sylvester screaming at the Cheerio's. He's shaking and lost and angry. Finn wanders aimlessly and ends up in the locker room. The tears fall and he doesn't bother to wipe them away. The showers are dripping. The drip drip drip sounds almost like a drumbeat, or a baby heartbeat. A sob tears through Finn's tall frame. Drip drip drip continues and he starts to pay attention to it. Its like how awesome it is when it's just drizzling outside, but it's not really rain, so it smells like rain but you don't need an umbrella to go outside. He is in the locker room though. Instead of smelling awesome it smells faintly of sweat and that gross cheese they had in the cafeteria that one time. He hurts so bad. Finn knows he isn't smart but to have people he cares about do this makes his mind go into overdrive. "Why…" he asks outloud. The tears fall and he feels numb.
