Chapter Four: Decisions, Decisions
"Uh...I don't know if I'm ready." Finn breathed in then let the breath out. Rachel smiled slightly and leaned in once more to hug him.
"She'll love you." She whispered.
The tall man nodded. "She's going to be confused Rachel. Why did you have to leave." He sighed and looked at the floor.
"I was terrified! I was pregnant! And I was in love with someone I wasn't sure about. I want you in her life. Lately, she's been asking me where he daddy is. Kids at school talk about there's, and she doesn't understand why she doesn't have one. I don't want her to think you didn't want her. And I wanted you in her life. So here I am. The past is the past. I'm back, and you have a chance to be in her life." She told him.
He nodded. "Isabella Berry?" He questioned.
She shook her head. "Isabella Elizabeth Hudson. She goes by Bella." The tiny girl explained.
"I would love to meet her now. Rachel, we are going to need to talk about some stuff. Like where she'll stay, what she needs, us." He gulped on the last word.
"Finn, you made it clear earlier. There is no us remember? You've moved on." She said the last part slowly as she walked into the room that Bella was in.
After a few minutes, Rachel came walking out holding Bella in her arms. The little girl's dark brown hair was shoulder length and pulled back into pigtails. She was wearing a pink dress with white leggings, and black shoes.
Everyone was silent as Rachel, Finn, and Bella sat on the couch. The three year old was sitting on her mother's lap looking at Finn expectantly. He just stared. He could see so much of him, and so much of Rachel.
"Hi!" Bella said excitedly.
"Hey. I'm Finn." he greeted.
She smiled a smile like her mother's, then looked at her. "Mommy, is Finn your fwiend?" She asked with a happy look.
Rachel nodded. "Yep, and you and him are going to start spending a lot of time together. Sweetie, after Finn leaves, we will have a little talk about who he is, and what your okay with, alright?" The mother explained.
Bella nodded, and walked over to Finn. "You wanna play dollies with me? Or maybe color?" She asked hopefully.
"Sure, let's go color...if it's alright with your mommy." He said as he looked at Rachel.
"That's perfectly fine."
After a little while of Finn and Bella playing, the little girl started to watch a movie, so he could go talk to her mother.
"She's amazing." He smiled.
"Yeah. She's pretty wonderful." The tiny woman sighed happily.
"I think we need to discuss some things. Like, are you planning on going to college?" He asked.
She nodded, and ran into her bedroom momentarily, coming out holding an Ohio State sweatshirt. "Go Buckeyes!" She fake cheered, then rolled her eyes as she threw the sweat shirt on the coffee table.
"That's where I go. I'm studying to be a teacher. I'm hoping to work at McKinley." He told her she smiled at him.
"I want to be a nurse." She explained.
"That's great. Rachel, I think we need to talk about what to do with Bella. I really do want to be in her life, are we going to like alternate weekends, and weekdays, stuff like that, or what?" He asked seriously
"I haven't decided yet. First, I just need to get her used to the idea of you being around okay? After you leave, I'll talk to her. I'll explain some things to her, and I'll let her decide what she wants, and I'll decide what's best for her. I think you should go now. Kelley is probably wondering about you." Rachel showed him to the door, hugged, then kissed his cheek as he left.
Rachel brought Bella to the couch, and sat her down. "Sweetie, did you like playing with Finn?" She asked happily.
The young girl shook her head happily. "He's nice. And fun!" She exclaimed with a giggle.
"He's going to start being around more, and more baby." Rachel explained slowly. Bella nodded and smiled.
"He really likes you." Bella pointed out.
The woman shook her head and laughed. "Honey, I have to tell you something about Finn." She started.
"Is he my daddy?" The little girl asked.
Her mother looked shocked. She'd almost forgotten how smart her little girl was.
"Yes, but we'll discuss that later okay?" She decided.
"Can I call him daddy?" She asked.
Rachel laughed. "If you want I guess? Don't you want to wait and get to know him a little bit?" The tiny brunette asked.
Bella shrugged and walked into her bedroom leaving Rachel a little confused.
Review:) lol I love writing Bella as being smart for her age haah.
