Trouble In Paradise Chapter 6

-Two Weeks Later-

It had been weeks a Rach had barely left her room. Ever since she saw him, the pain just got worse and worse, and it was getting to a point where she didn't think it was ever going to get better. She can't bare to look at anyone, Alex and Avery remind her so much of him that sometimes it hurts her just to look at him, and Kurt has gotten so worried that he had remove ever trace of Finn from the house. But Kurt was getting tried of hearing nothing from his best friends but sobs and seeing nothing but tears, he wanted his diva back and he knew he to do something. Rachel was slipping away and he need to bring her back to the real world, not only so she could deal with Finn, but for herself, for Alex and Avery, and for all her family and friends that love her no matter what.

Rachel is sitting in her room like always when she suddenly burst into tears. And not long after she starts Kurt comes in.

Kurt: (Worried) Rach, what's wrong?

Rachel didn't look up she just held out her hand to Kurt, giving him her phone.

Kurt took the phone from Rachel and saw that Finn had been texting her non-stop, trying to get her to talk to him, but she wouldn't budge. And as he read down through he saw the reason for her tears.

Please don't do this Rach. I love you - Finn

It was a mistake. Please talk 2 me - Finn

Rach please! I can't live with you! I need you! - Finn

Please Rach! Please! Just give me a chance! I'll do anything just please talk 2 me! - Finn

I know what I did was wrong. I'd take it all back if I could, but I can't. I'm sorry… and not just because I got caught, I'm sorry because I love you, because I wanted us to be forever, and we're not even close to that yet. Please just let me talk. I love you, just give me a chance. Please - Finn

After the first couple he could read no more. He walks over to the bed, sits down and wraps his arms around Rachel.

Kurt: Rach, don't listen to him. What he did was wrong, he lost you and you're doing the right thing, no matter what he says.

Rachel stays silent trying to pull herself together as her tears slow and the sobbing begins to stop.

Kurt: Rach I think it's time you leave this room. You know get some fresh air, figure out what you're gonna do.

Rachel: But I don't want to. The more I think about it the more it hurts. The more I want to curl up in bed and just stay there.

Kurt: you're gonna have to deal with this sooner or later.

Rachel: But I don't want to.

Kurt: but the longer you put it off…

Rachel: the longer I put it off the less real it seems.

Kurt: No Rach, the longer you put this off the more it's gonna hurt you.

Rachel: Well maybe I don't wanna deal with it. Maybe I just want to put it off until I can just forget.

Kurt: But can you really? Can you really forget what happened?

Rachel: I don't know. I just want my life back. Before any of this happened, I want Finn back but after what happened, I just don't know any more.

Kurt: Do you still love him don't you?

Rachel: Of course I still love him. Something tells me I always will.

Kurt: Well I think you have your answer. Maybe you should give him a chance, talk to him and work it out together.

Rachel: Just cause I should doesn't mean I can. I may be able to forget what he did but I don't know if I can ever forgive him.

Kurt: Well that's just something you have to leave to time. You have to take things a day at a time and see how they go.

Rachel: But where do I even start? My life was shattered Kurt. How do I even begin to pick up the pieces.

Kurt: Simple. You just bend down and pick them up, one by one, and before you know it, you'll have your life back. But how about for now we start with a shower. No offence Rach but you've been in her for weeks.

Rachel laughs and leaves the room but then pokes her head back in through the door.

Rachel: Thanks Kurt.

And with that she left again.


-With Finn-

Finn was now in a funk of his own and he to had trouble finding a reason to get out of bed in the morning. He hadn't been going to work, and he had almost gone through all his sick days in the process.

Finn was just lazing around the house when he heard a knock on the door. He slowly got up and answered it.

Finn: Sam?

Sam: Finn, what happened? You haven't been to work in two week!

Finn: Sam… you know what happened with Rachel.

Sam: Yes, I know what happened, but you can't do this. You can't just forget your whole life because Rachel left you.

Finn; SHUT UP SAM! OF COURSE I CAN STOP MY LIFE! CAUSE Rachel WAS MY LIFE! AND WITH HER I HAVE NOTHING!

Sam: Finn, I didn't mean it like that. I just meant that you can't lose yourself over this. You have to get out of this house and live your life.

Finn: And why should I?

Sam: Because Finn, if you soon don't go back to work, you wont have a job to go back to.

Finn: I don't care!

Sam: Finn! How can you even say that! As long as I have known you, you have wanted a job like this, and now your just giving it away! And for what? For nothing that's what!

Finn: I'm not giving it away! I'm losing it! Just like the rest of my dreams! And Sam think about it, what would you do if you had my life. If Mercedes left you, wouldn't talk to you and wouldn't let you see Justin or Porsche.

With that Sam was silenced, as he started to think about what Finn was really going through, how he had nothing, and the worst part was no one was there for him he was going through it all alone.

Finn: See it's not the best place to be is it?

Sam lowered his head realizing what he had just said, and how insensitive he had been.

Sam: I'm sorry Finn. But you know that I'm right. You can't just sit here and pretend that nothing happened.

Finn: But I can't live without her.

Sam: That's the thing, you say you can't live without her yet here you are, throwing your whole life away, when you could live.

Finn: Weren't you listening? I said I can't live without her.

Sam: Then why are you here? If you need her that bad then you should be sitting here feeling sorry for yourself. You should be out there, trying to get her back.

Finn: I already tried. She doesn't want me. She hates me.

Sam: Finn, she said the Sam thing in high school, she said the Sam thing when she came back to Lima and every time you two ended up together, why is this time any different?

Finn:…


-With Rachel-

Rachel had been working for days on getting her life back together and things were finally staring to look up. She was starting to forget, for now anyway and even though things still hurt at time, they didn't hurt as much. As Kurt had said she was getting her life back. Slowly and piece by piece but she was getting it back.

Kurt: Rach, I have an idea.

Rachel: And what is that Kurt?

Kurt: Well after all that you been through, I thin you deserve a day to relax, so me and Mercedes are taking you to the spa tomorrow. How does that sound?

Rachel: That sounds great Kurt. Just what I need.
