"Maddie remember you have to be quiet until I tell you to jump onto the bed." Rachel whispered, Madison nodded eagerly.
Rachel quietly opened the door quietly trying not to wake up Finn. It was his birthday and Madison was finally old enough to do what Rachel had been planning for years. The best part about Finn's birthday was it always fell on April vacation so every year since Rachel and Finn started dating they would always spend it together. Plus It was their five year wedding anniversary that week too. Rachel placed the tray down gently and crawled over to her side of the bed, she bent over Finn and started to whisper in his ear.
"Happy birthday, Finn." She whispered she could see him smile. She flipped her hair and cued Madison. Maddison got a running start from the door and leaped onto the bed shaking it plopping on Finn.
"Happy birthday Daddy!" She yelled waking Finn up. He grabbed her and put her on his lap. Rachel took the tray of Food and set it infront of them, she had made Finn's favorite noneotherthan frozen waffles!
"And I made you waffles." She said as she leaned in for him to kiss her on the cheek.
"Did you help Maddie?" He asked Madison nodded proudly.
"Well, thank you." He said pouring syrup on the waffles. Being the person Rachel was Finn made sure not to eat like a pig. Rachel took Maddie to let him finish his breakfast. When he came downstairs he saw Madison sitting on the couch watching television and Ava was sitting in her highchair eating cheerioes and slices of banana. He put the tray in the sink and saw Rachel looking in the cabinet for something.
"What are you looking for?" He asked scaring her that she hit her head.
"Ow!" She yelled, both Madison and Ava turned.
"I'm okay, She said holding her hand against her head.
"You sure?" Rachel nodded biting her lip.
"What were you looking for?"
"Sugar,"
"You making me a cake?"
"I don't know," Her voice trailed off.
"Do you want me to go get some from Quinn and Puck?" Rachel nodded and he grabbed his jacket and made it across the street.
Quinn opened the door her hair in a messy bun with her pink bunny flannel pants and cheerioes t-shirt.
"Finn! Happy Birthday!" She said giving him a hug.
"Thanks, Hey do you have any sugar although Rachel says no she making me a birthday cake?"
"Yeah, I'll go get some come in." She said closing the door behind him. Puck came down the stairs snd saw Finn standing there.
"Finn, hey happy birthday man." he said giving Finn a fist pumped.
"Thanks man it nice being twenty-eight." (Fact: Cory Montieth is actually 28! Math is fun isn't it?)
"Ha ha! dude live it up two more years and your going to be thirty!"
"Dun, dun, dun!" Puck started to laugh.
"Here's the sugar Finn." Quinn said giving his a small container of sugar.
"Thanks Quinn." He opened the door and walked across the street. Handing the sugar to Rachel and making his way to the couch with Maddie.
After two hours of intense baking and making the cake was finished. It was a chocolate cake with chocolate-peanut butter frosting with M&Ms and Resse peanut butter cups scattered all over the cake. After dinner Rachel brought outnthe small round chocolate had more cake than anyone, Rachel was hoping there wwould be left overs but there wasn't. After Finn's large three pieces of cake Finn had a massive stomach ache.
"I tell you everytime I make this cake not to eat more than a piece. Finn was curled in a ball on the couch.
"I know," He moaned.
"Upstiars, now!" She said lugging him upstairs. Finn changed and went to bed.
"He will never learn," She said walking down stairs She cleaned up and then put Ava and Madison to changed and crawled into bed wrapping her arms around Finn.
"I will never eat that cake again." He moaned.
"That's because you ate four slices, Finn I wanted that cake to last the week."
"Okay, well next time you make it I'm not eating one slice!"
"Sure..." Her voice trailed off sarcastically.
Then fell asleep. Finn was fine the next morning and wanted more cake, no surprise there. Their anniversay was in three days away and Finn still didn't know what he was going.
The day came and Finn had the perfect idea. ( If you read 'A new begining' this next part will make since, If you didn't go read it! It will help in a way.)
Finn said he was going over to Puck's but in reailty he was in the park, setting up for the night he had planned. So Rachel wouldn't get suspicious when she saw his car gone he took Quinn's silver corola. Finn told Rachel to get dressed she didn't know where he was taking her but she wore a light purple dress down to her knees. She waited in the living room for Finn. Madison and Ava were at The Puckerman's. Finallay Finn rang the doorbell wearing a black suit with a blue striped tie.
"Mrs. Hudson, the carridge awaits," he said pointing to the horse drawn carridge in the front of the house. Off in the distance she could see Quinn in the window watching.
"Thank you," She said walking over to the carridge.
Just like their first date in high school it was a beautiful set-up in the park.
"Just like high school," She said her resting on his chest looking up the high school.
"Just like High school," He repeated kissing the top of her head.
After what felt like days staring at the stars they went home. Quinn was waiting eagerly at the door.
"So, how'd it go?" She asked.
"It was wonderful," Rachel said looking up at Finn. Then Puck came down Madison drapped over his shoulder. Ava in her seat. Puck gave Madison to Finn and Ava to Rachel. They walked across the street and put both children to bed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``` Okay so a picture of the dress is on my channel if you want to see it.

Third I just finished the first chapter of my new story it's a sequel to this story so i guess 'New Directions for Finn and Rachel' , this one and the next one will be sorta like a trilogy.
"Best day ever!" She whispered in Finn's ear as they were going to bed.
