Ok, so I wasn't going to write another part to this story, but then I kind of found the perfect song, so I decided to continue with one more chapter. This will be Finn's side of things, as last chapter was Rachel's. Hope you enjoy.

Disclaimer: You know the drill, I don't own anything. The song is Don't Want To Spend One More Christmas Without You by NSYNC (totally old school :D)

Don't Want to Spend One More Christmas Without You

This is the time of year, that we learn to give
And the greatest gift is learning to forgive
We will have the best that time we ever knew
If you forgive me and I forgive you

I don't want to light a fire
Unless it will warm your heart
I'm playin no holiday songs
I need you to sing your part
And baby if I could have just one wish come true
I don't wanna spend one more Christmas without you

Finn let out a deep sigh as he laid on his bed, listened to the lyrics of the song playing on the radio, and threw a ball against the wall of his new bedroom. It was surprising how well the lyrics seemed to fit his current situation. He knew it was Christmas and that this was a time to forgive those who had wronged you throughout the year, his Mom had made sure to remind him of that a million times over the last few days.

He knew he should forgive Rachel, he really wanted to. He missed her like crazy. It was just hard. She had betrayed him and his trust. Sure she had apologized for it over and over and had tried to get back together with him on a number of occasions, but he just wasn't in the forgiving mood. That was until he really had allowed himself to remember the past year he had spent pining over Rachel and then finally getting the chance to be with her.

It's so hard to believe
We're staring at the end
When all we think about is starting up again
Whatever we lost, when we were apart
We'll find it all alone in the dark

All those warm memories were hindered when he remembered her words, and the hurt in her voice shortly after he had ended things with her.

"You said you'd never break up with me." She had screamed at him in the middle of the hall at school.

It was true. They had made that promise to eachother, and at the time, he had really felt like there were no truer ever spoken. He was sure she was it for him. He had even went as far as to dream of marrying her and about having kids with her, something he had never done while dating Quinn.

He knew she was hurt by the fact that he had slept with Santana, and he finally understood why she made such a big deal about it. He apologized, but she still seemed to be mad at him, and just when they were finally about to get over their fight, she went and told him about what she did with Puck. Puck. He didn't even want to think about him right now. He focussed his thoughts back on Rachel.

He really missed her, more than he ever thought possible. He wondered what she was doing right now? If she missed him half as much as he missed her. Probably not, you dumbass. He thought to himself. You made her feel like crap when she was just trying to make things right, both with him and the Glee club. He couldn't blame her if she never spoke to him again after the way he had treated her in the Christmas tree lot that night. He remembered her saying something about asking Santa for him for Christmas and then they had kissed. It was a sweet kiss and he had wanted to give into it more than anything, but being the idiot that he was, he pulled away and left her standing in the middle of the lot with no ride home. She'll never forgive you. The voice in his head said.

It was then that he realized that the only thing he wanted for Christmas, was the same thing she had wished for. He wanted her, and he was going to get her back no matter what it took. No more Christmas apart. He couldn't, he wouldn't, spend another Christmas without her.

I don't wanna light a fire
Unless it will warm your heart
I'm playin no holiday songs
I need you to sing your part
And baby if I could have just one wish come true
I don't wanna spend one more Christmas without you

Jumping into his truck, he didn't even bother to tell his Mom or Burt where he was going. The only thing on his mind was getting to Rachel.

There's nothing more that I want from you
Then to lie here together
And stay here forever with you
All he needed and wanted was to get Rachel to forgive him for being such a jerk, and make sure she knew he forgave her and that he loved her. He wanted, more than anything, to just crawl into her queen size bed and hold her, forever if he could. They could erase all the dark memories of the past few weeks and pretend like the rest of the world didn't exist.

He pulled onto Rachel's street and looked over to her house. The lights were off and it looked like nobody was home, but her car, along with her both her Dads cars were in the driveway. He decided to take a chance and as soon as he reached the front of the yard, he raced to her door and knocked. He waited a few moments before knocking again. He pounded on the door before one of Rachel's neighbors poked their head out their front door and recognized him from the many times he had been to Rachel's house.

"The Berrys ain't here." The guy said.

"Where are they?" Finn asked, not even caring that he probably sounded totally desperate. He was.

"Their in New York, took their daughter, your girlfriend, there for Christmas vacation or something. I'm watching over the house. I'm surprised you didn't know." The guy said.

Finn shrugged, not caring what the neighbor thought. "Thanks." He said sadly, hating his luck.

It was then he realized that he needed to talk to Rachel, and it didn't matter that she wasn't there. He just needed to talk to her, and he needed to do it now.

There's no one I ever knew
That I wanted to spend Christmas with, more than you...

He pulled out his cell phone and pressed the number 2 in his speed dial. He waited a minute before she finally picked up and her voice filtered through the receiver.

"Finn?" She asked, her voice sounding small and sad. He could tell right away that she had been crying.

"Hi Rach." He managed to get out.

"Why are you calling? I mean I'm really glad you called, but I didn't think you were speaking to me." She said.

"I know Rach, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, you have no idea. I realize what an idiot I've been, and I know I've been a jerk to you and all, but I need you to know, I forgive you." He said without breathing.

It took a minute before for she replied, and for a second he thought she had hung up. "Y...you do? You really do?" She asked, still not sounding like herself, but he could hear the rise of hope in her voice.

"I really do. What you did was bad, but I made mistakes to, probably even more than you. I hope you can forgive me to. I just got to thinking about us and what we had and I know this is a time of forgiving and..." He was interrupted by Rachel's giggle.

"Finn...you can stop." She laughed. "It's ok, I forgive you. I understand that what I did was horrible, but just knowing you can forgive me is enough. We still have to talk about things, but I think, no I know, we'll be ok."

"Good, cause Rach the only thing I know is that I never want to spend another Christmas without you."

I don't want to light a fire
Unless it will warm your heart
I'm playin no holiday songs
I need you to sing your part
And baby if I could have just one wish come true
I don't wanna spend one more Christmas without you

Finn was so happy that he started singing into his cell phone, not even caring about the looks he might receive from people passing by. He had all he wanted for Christmas, he just needed her to be back in his arms and then it would truely feel like Christmas.

"Rach? Will you sing with me? I just really need to hear your voice right now." He said quietly into the phone, and somehow he knew Rachel was standing there, in her hotel room, with a huge smile on her face.

"There's nothing I would love to do more."

I don't want to light a fire
Unless it will warm your heart
I'm playin no holiday songs
I need you to sing your part
And baby if I could have just one wish come true
I don't wanna spend one more Christmas
I don't wanna spend one more Christmas
I don't wanna spend one more Christmas without you
