Theme: Staccato

Characters: Finn/Rachel

Warnings: None.


"Sta- what?"

"Staccato."

"What does that even mean?" Finn was looking more confused by the second. Rachel sighed.

"I already told you. It means that the note is not connected."

"And why do I need to know this?"

Rachel took a long calming breath, trying to explain the simple concept to her rather slow boyfriend.

"Because, Finn, someday we're going to be a famous duet. We'll make our own songs and perform in front of millions every week. But for that you need to be able to understand music!"

Finn sent her a pleading look. "I'm not good with this fancy musical notes stuff, Rach. I can play the drums and I can learn the guitar if you want but that's it." Rachel opened her mouth to lecture Finn on the importance of the matter, but was cut off.

"You're smart enough for the both of us." Finn gave a desperate little smile, holding out his arms to hug her. She leaned in, resting her head against his chest.

"That's true." She smiled a little. "But I wanted us to make our songs together!"

"We will, but that's a while from now. Can't we just call it a day?" She nodded into his chest and hugged tighter.

Finn kissed the top of her head and rested his cheek on it, a small smile on his face. They stayed like that for a while, content to just hold each other.

"You will learn it sooner or later, though, got it?"

Finn sighed, then nodded, still smiling.
