Finn looked at his girlfiend laying still in the bed. An IV in her arm and the machines beeping and such. He took Rachel's hand in his and sighed softly. "Last time I was here, Burt was in this bed." Finn said quietly. "Everyone I care about." He said again.

"Rachel, I...I don't know why I can't say this to your face. But, I'm in love with you. More in love then I was with Quinn. You're beautiful and amazing and I want to marry you someday. I mean, I know you want to go to New York, and I'll follow you. I want to be with you forever. I know you can't hear me. But please, try and remember this. Rachel, I want you to get better. I love you and I don't know what I would do without you. I wouldn't realize my love of singing if it wasn't for you. You're my everything. Don't ever change." He kissed her forehead when there was stuggling from outside.

"No, I want to see her now. She's my daughter." A woman's voice said.

"Look, ma'am, this girl has two fathers. No mother it says." A nurse told the woman, she was blocking the doorway.

"I am her biological mother. I carried her for 9 months. I went through all that childbirth pain for her. Look it up. My name is Shelby Corkrin. It was a closed adoption but she found me. I need to see her. Please." The woman begged.

Finn let go of Rachel's hand and walked to the door. "She's telling the truth. Come on in, Shelby." Finn said as the nurse stepped aside. Shelby smiled at the tall boy and walked in. Speedwalking to Rachel's side and taking her hand.

"Rachel, can you hear me? It's me, momma. I'm here now. It's OK. I'm sorry. I wasn't there for you all these years. It's my fault you are like this. You didn't have a mother to tell you about growing up and the troubles of being a girl. I'm sorry, Rachel. I'm so sorry." Shelby said. Finn had silently walked back to the waiting room, though getting angry when he saw no other then Jesse St. James sitting next to Mr. Schue.

"What the hell is he doing here?" Finn asked, his nostrils flared.

"Woah, calm down, Frankenteen. I'm not here to steal Rachel from you. She chose you over me, remember. Anyway, I came to see her. Apologize. I broke her heart. Made her feel bad. I deserve to apologize." Jesse said, smiling.

Finn shook his head and sat down on the whole other side of the room.

..

Minutes later Shelby walked out. Tear streaked face. Jesse stood up, strode over to the room and was quickly out.

Time went by and soon everyone had apologized. Now all that was left was for them to go home. Carole volunteered to stay with Rachel for the night.

..

The next day in Glee everything was quiet. Finn and Quinn the most. Soon Finn spoke up. "I'd like to sing a song Mr. Schuester." nodded and took a seat. Finn took his usual spot in the center of the room's performing area. The music started and Finn started his song.

"I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house

That don't bother me

I can take a few tears now and then and just let ?em out

I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while even though

Goin' on with you gone still upsets me

There are days every now and again I pretend I'm okay

But that's not what gets me

What hurts the most

Was being so close

And havin' so much to say

And watchin' you walk away

And never knowin'

What could've been

And not seein' that lovin' you

Is what I was tryin' to do

It's hard to deal with the pain of losin' you everywhere I go

But I'm doin' it

It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone

Still harder gettin' up, gettin' dressed, livin' with this regret

But I know if I could do it over

I would trade, give away all the words that I saved in my heart

That I left unspoken

What hurts the most

Is being so close

And havin' so much to say

(Much to say)

And watchin' you walk away

And never knowin'

What could've been

And not seein' that lovin' you

Is what I was tryin' to do, oh

Oh yeah

What hurts the most

Was being so close

And havin' so much to say

(To say)

And watchin' you walk away

And never knowin'

What could've been

And not seein' that lovin' you

Is what I was tryin' to do

Not seein' that lovin' you

That's what I was trying to do, ooo."

Everyone clapped, Quinn had tears in her eyes. "Finn, Rachel would have loved that. If she was here." Finn nodded and sat down.

After school, Finn, Quinn, Kurt, and Burt returned to the hospitial. Carole was tired and hungry so she got a break to sleep and eat. Finn sat in Rachel's room, head in his hands. Quinn had gone to go get some food for them and Burt and Kurt were talking about who would stay tonight.

Finn looked up and took Rachel's hand. Rubbing his thumb over it and smiling slightly. She looked so fragile, weak, not herself like this. He sighed and kissed her knuckles. He closed his eyes and leaned back. That's when he heard it. Not it. Her. He heard Rachel say something.

"F-Fi-Finn?" She said, stuttering and mumbling slightly. He sat up and looked at her. Her eyes were opening, fluttering against the bright light above. Finn grinned and pressed the button for the nurse.

"I'm right here, Rachel. Rach, I'm right here." He kissed her forehead and watched as the nurse walked in.

"Oh, thank the lord. Doctor, she's awake." The doctor came in and smiled.

"Wonderful. How do you feel, Rachel?" The doctor asked.

Rachel looked around. "Tired." She said, Finn smirked and kissed her cheek, making Rachel blush.

"Well, that's all normal. We'll have a nurse look you over, you'll stay here for another day and then you can go back home and back to school. Sound good?" Rachel noded and the doctor left.

Finn grinned and kissed Rachel like she had been gone since forever. The nurse had to finally clear her throat to get the two hormone driven teens to stop making out in front of her.

"you must really like superchick... but that's okay cuz i LOVE them! francesca is good to... I am glad to see someone use my favorite songs:)"

I do like Superchick and the reason I have been using there songs is because the song Courage actually gave me the idea and because they aren't a well known band and they are amazing with really deep songs.

"I like this so far. There are times that I've wondered when watching the show what would happen if Rachel did break from the stress of all the name calling like that... what would she do and if anyone would notice...

Can't wait to see where you go from here.

"Gleek freak and proud!""

I always thought the same so that's why I wrote it. Of course you may think she does something else, but I thought of this due to a song.

"U R AMAZING U PUT A PIVTURE INTO PEOPLES HEADS I LOVE GLEE AND BY THE LOOK OF MY MAME CRIMINALMINDS 2 AND U R INSERATIONAL AND A GOOD AUTHOR"

Well, thank you very much! I appreciate that! It means a lot since I'm only 15 years old and haven't written in forever and a half.

Remember, if you want a shout out just put "Gleek freak and proud!" underneath your review. I will respond to others if I feel the need to. Like some above that didn't have the shoutout cue but I wanted to respond to.
