A/N: Finchel's endeavours in college. Please review! It would mean the world to me. :)

Disclaimer: I don't own glee.

They were at the airport. I mean, this was it. Finn and Rachel were never going to see each other until the holidays. They were off to different schools. Finn got into some random community college in Ohio and Rachel was going to NYADA.

Flight 786 to New York is now ready for boarding.

Rachel turned around and leapt into Finn's arms. Oh boy, was she going to miss him so terribly. She combed her fingers through his hair one last time before whispering into his ear "I love you so, so much." Rachel couldn't see it, but she swore she felt Finn smiling into her neck. "I love you more." After what seemed like hours, Finn finally let her down. She gave him a nod before making her way to pick up her carry-on.

"Rach, wait!" He grabbed her hand, spun her around and kissed her, in one swift motion.

Last call for Flight 786 to New York.

"I'm gonna miss you." He felt the tears threatening to fall down his face.

Rachel was speechless. She couldn't form a coherent sentence. This was all just too much. Being apart from him was the last thing she ever wanted. Finn had to stay in Ohio but promises to fly to New York after graduation.

"I-I" Rachel mouths, but nothing comes out.

He takes an envelope and shoves it into her hands. "Do me a favour? Read it when you're in the air?" He gives her his trademark grin; the one that she goes crazy about.

"Okay." She says rather softly. Then she looks up to see a single tear rolling down his cheek. She reaches up and brushes her thumb across his cheek to wipe his tear. They both release a small laugh at this. "Hey, hey." She coos. "I'm going to fly back to see you after this semester ends. Wait for me?"

"I will, Rach. I will always."

And with that she's gone.

Finn sat down at the chairs nearby just thinking about their situation. They've talked about it loads of times. But he's still worried that she'll meet someone more talented than him and that she'll forget about Finn-The Lima Loser. She tells him all the time that he isn't. But he still feels like one. He sat there wondering whether or not she has read his letter. He spent the last few months writing and re-writing the damn letter because he wants it to be perfect.

He checks his watch. Rachel's probably landed in New York already. Oops. He heads home.

The airplane service was horrible. Rachel wondered how they could have hired such buffoons. They messed up her special vegan meal! She was so going to write a complain letter to the company once they land. Letter? Right! Finn's letter. I nearly forgot. She takes it out of the pocket and smiles at the little gold stars that he must have drawn onto it.

Hey Rach.

You're probably up in the air right now. I know you like to take a nap on planes so I'll try to make this as short as possible.

I love you.

I know I say it all the time, but I love you.

I love the way you get all excited every time I suggest we watch Funny Girl.

I love the way you smiled when you got your acceptance letter to NYADA.

I love the way you wear my Letterman jacket to school whenever I "accidentally" leave it at your house.

I love you. I'm going to miss you.

I'm so, so afraid that you'll find someone better than me. But if he makes you happy, I say go for it. I just want you to be happy. If he can provide more for you than I ever can, go to him. You deserve the best.

I can't wait for you to be on Broadway. I'll be there. At your first show. In the front row.

Love, Finn.

P.S. If you really do find someone, I will personally go down there to kick his ass.

Rachel folded up the letter and couldn't stop the tears from flowing. Was he that stupid? She would never find anyone else more perfect than him. She held the piece of paper to her heart and buried her face in her hands. Her Finn was perfect. Her Finn.

Finn finally finished unpacking his stuff with his new roommate, Jake, in his new dormitory.

"Man, I've never felt so tired in my life." His roommate collapses onto his bed.

Then they heard a beeping sound from Finn's laptop.

"Hey, it's my girlfriend, do you mind?"

"No, not at all." He politely replies. "I'll go explore campus. See you."

He clicks the green button to answer her skype call.

"Finn." She says softly. "I'm not going to leave you okay? And you have my full permission to come and kick the asses of whoever tries to get with me." She beams.

Sometimes, he just adores his girlfriend.

"Looks what I got!" She sing-songs while showing him his green hoodie.

"So that's where it went! No wonder I couldn't find it!"

"It smells like you." She says as she puts it on. "I wish you were here, Finny bear." She pouts.

"Me too."

"Oh, That's my roommate. Finn, this is Hayley, my roommate. Hayley, this is my boyfriend, Finn."

"Hi Finn!"

"Okay, Finny bear, I got to go. Got some unpacking to do." She kisses the camera before logging off.

Might as well log off, he should just take a nap anyway. He's got a lot on his mind.

Before he could fall asleep, he felt his cell phone in his pocket vibrate.

Finn. Got a call from your doctor. Call me asap. It's important. I think you should let Rachel know now. -Mom.
