RLM: Any old love song will do :)


I was in love.

That's the only thought I had as I sat there, unable to wipe the grin off my face as I happily ignored the words Mr. Schue was saying (and basically anything else happing around me that Rachel wasn't involved in). It was Monday glee club, and I was still reeling from my realization of love on Friday. All weekend, her name seemed to echo in my head as I thought things through and realized I really did love her.

Leave it to me to take a completely normal conversation and make it a love realization.

'This is crazy,' I thought, turning my head to stare at Rachel- again. 'I've never felt like this before, not even with Quinn.' I gazed at her chocolate eyes and hair, again feeling so... overwhelmed. This was just so different than what I had felt before, so much more natural and happy. I was in love, and I was proud!

"Finn!"

Mr. Schue's voice broke me out of my thoughts and back to reality. Startled, I jumped out of my chair and to the ground, making the usual fool of myself.

Snickers filled the choir room.

"Wha-?"

"I was asking if you and Rachel would like to demonstrate a art song, or as some call it, a lied."

"... What's a lied?"

Judging from the look on Mr. Schue's face and the chuckles of my fellow gleeks, it was probably what Mr. Schue had been lecturing about while I was off in Rachel-Land.

"As I just said, Finn, a lied like a European version of a love song. We're thinking about doing one for sectionals."

Love song... with Rachel... it was a win-win. I would get to sing a love song with Rachel while being completely platonic, and be able to check "He must have a voice that sounds AMAZING with mine" off the soulmate list.

The problem was... I had no idea what I was singing.

I guess this occurred to Mr. Schue, because he handed me some sheet music and whispered,

"Try to follow along as best as you can."

Luckily, it turns out a lied normally consisted of only one person (a.k.a Rachel), and I was really only there to do some harmonizing vocals in the background. I got to do all of the things above and not embarrass myself like I normally do whenever I open my mouth. Rachel's voice rang out clearly through the choir room, and when I sang with her... it felt so right. Our voices danced together, a perfect harmony. I didn't want it to end.

When it did, there was silence for a moment before the burst of applause and cheering from the impressive melody we just did.

"Wow,"

Rachel was out of breath, looking towards me as we sat back down.

"I never knew our voices sounded that good together. We sound... amazing."

With that, she took her seat and left me in a dazed state, stumbling around until I found my chair and could internally celebrate accomplishing yet another bullet. At this speed, I would be Rachel's boyfriend by the end of the year.

I couldn't wait.


A/N: I'm really kind of mad about the Quinn/Finn thing on Glee right now, and not just 'cause I'm a Finchel shipper. My problem with the current Finn-wants-Quinn-back plot line is the fact Finn broke up with Rachel because he was hurt over what Rachel did (kiss Puck), but then he goes for Quinn, who did so much more than just kiss Puck? Ugh! It irritates me so! Hey! Any of you out there read Maximum Ride? I just finished ANGEL, and I have to say, I was really impressed! And- bam! I knew that Ella/Iggy one-liner in Saving The World was going somewhere! They're my new fav. couple!

Thanks for reviewing!
