A Very Hudson Christmas: a series of holiday Finchel tales.
Christmas - that magic blanket that wraps itself about us, that something so intangible that it is like a fragrance. It may weave a spell of nostalgia. Christmas may be a day of feasting, or of prayer, but always it will be a day of remembrance - a day in which we think of everything we have ever loved. - Finn and Rachel's celebration of Christmas. He loved the smell of Christmas trees. She learned the true meaning of Christmas and they didn't have words to describe their love for ! May God bless you.
I don't own Glee, just my words, Forever dedicated to Cory, you'll always be in my heart.
Happy new year guys! Have a grand one!
Chapter 2: Merry Christmas darling.
As a jew, Rachel wasn't used to Christmas, all was merely new to her as she celebrated her first One with Finn and their baby daughter. Hannah was the spitting image is Finn, his mini me, and just like her daddy she loved Christmas, as far as Rachel could see of course. She was too young to even register what the celebration meant but she was sure she'd enjoy Christmas just as much as Finn.
When she woke up Christmas morning, she felt cold as Finn's side was empty. She was about to get up when his head peeked inside.
"Hey, what are you doing out of bed? I miss cuddling." Rachel said tenderly as Finn entered the room holding their wide awake child. Hannah wore matching pjs with her parents, courtesy of uncle Kurt.
"This little lady woke up first and I just made sure she was fine." Finn said with a smile. "I made us some hot chocolate."
"Good." Rachel kissed him on the lips.
"Hey Han, why don't you tell mommy about Santa? I'm pretty sure you've been such a good girl because he got you a ton of gifts." Rachel smiled down at her family. Hannah giggled as Finn handed her to her mother and the small family made their way to the living room where the tree was.
Finn headed to the kitchen to get chocolate for him and Rachel while she sat on the floor with the baby and began examining the gifts.
"Finn, why don't you open one first?"
He didn't hesitate. Rachel had gotten him a new laptop for his upcoming teaching internship. He had finally decided he wanted to become a teacher, he had also founded a teaching studio about a year before to help unprivileged kids. More than he could ask for really since he learned so much by being around those kids.
"Here, now you." Finn handed her a small box from one side of the tree, like he was hiding it from her. Rachel opened the small box to find a small star shaped locket. "I saw it at a store the other day and it made me think of you." Finn said smiling. "Open it." When she did, she saw an inscription in in. "Forever yours, no longer just pretending." Rachel had tears in her eyes as she glanced down at the pictures. In he first one, she and Finn were standing in Central Park, he had her on his back, her hands around his neck.
The next picture was one Finn had taken of Hannah during their last trip to Lima.
"Finn, It's.." Hannah examined the object from Rachel's lap and grabbed it, trailing her small fingers trough the picture of of her parents. "I love it Finn...thank you."
"I thought you might." He said helping her up to put it on, when he did, he kissed the back of her neck slowly. "I'm glad you like it." Finn turned around to take the baby from Rachel and then went back to the floor to check out the rest of the presents. Hannah had gotten some useful baby stuff from her uncles and grandparents, plus some toys.
Rachel watched from the couch as Finn explained to the baby what her play-school music elephant and how if she practiced really hard she'd be as awesome as her mom.
"Rach?" Finn asked kindly looking up at her. "What's wrong?"
She shook his head. How could something be wrong?
"Nothing." She said taking his hand. "Everything is fine."
Finn smirked and kissed her hand, focussing on the task at hand of killing wrapping paper. "I'm going to call Kurt to make sure we're still going over later okay?"
"Okay babe. Tell them I said Merry Christmas.. I love you."
As she looked back at her greatest loves, she couldn't help but wonder about what other Christmases would be like. When Hannah and perhaps other children were around. One thing was for sure. She wouldn't change celebrating Christmas with Finn for anything.
