Finn had planned another surprise for Rachel. He was going to surprise Rachel with the girls' room when it came time for her to deliver. Rachel's dads had bought a house for them, but they weren't moving in just yet. Rachel was living at her dads' and Finn was at his parents until they were able to move into their home.
"This looks great" Finn said as he looked around his daughters' room for the first time since it had been done.
"Rachel is going to love it" Kurt added.
"The girls are going to be here so soon, which is why I need to ask a favor of you. Which rings do you like the best?" he asked as he pulled out a jewelry store catalog.
"Ooh, Finn, you've asked the right person" Kurt exclaimed.
"I knew that I could count on you."Finn told him.
"You should definitely get this one" Kurt told him pointing to a ring on a page.
"That is my favorite one too"
And with that, the two brothers walked out of the house and headed to the mall so that Finn could make Rachel Berry his fiancée.

"Finn, what are you doing? I am really not in the mood for your surprises." Rachel complained when Finn picked her up that evening.
"I think you'll like this surprise. Now can you just get in the truck? We have to drive here and it's rather far. I want to get there before dark."
Rachel just shook her head and got in the front seat of his truck.
"Where are we going? You know I hate surprises Finn. Can't you just tell me where you're taking me?" Rachel wondered as he drove away.
"You'll see when we get there."
Rachel just glared at Finn as he drove further and further away from Lima.

Rachel had fallen asleep moments after they had left Allen County. Finn was vastly approaching their destination: Lake Erie.
The sun had just set and the scenery surrounding them was breathtaking. Finn was glad that he had chosen this very spot to ask Rachel one simple question.
A few minutes had passed and he pulled into Lake Erie Beach. He looked out of his window and noticed Kurt setting up for Finn's major step. He then shook Rachel to wake her.
"Babe, we're here."
"Where are we?" Rachel asked groggily.
"Why don't you take a look and see for yourself?" he suggested.
Rachel looked outside of her window and noticed that they were at the beach. Rachel loved the beach. It was so calming.
"Well, let's get out" Finn advised her and he went over to the passenger's side of the truck and opened the door for Rachel. She got out.
"Finn, I can't believe you took me here. I love the beach!"
"I know, next to New York, it's your favorite place in the world." He told her.
"Why did you take me here? It's not my birthday." She wondered.
"I brought you here because there is something that I needed to ask you."
Just then, Kurt walked over to Finn's truck and placed a CD in the disc player. A familiar tune came on. Finn then began to serenade Rachel with the song.
We watch the seasons pull up its own stakes
And catch the last weekend of the last week
Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced
Another sun soaked season fades away
You have stolen my heart
You have stolen my heart
"Rachel, you have stolen my heart. You have made me become a better person. You've made so happy. I have ecstasy levels that I didn't even know existed. I no longer feel ambushed by popularity with you. You have made me realized that it doesn't matter what people think of you. I believe in you so much, Rachel Berry and if you'll let me, I will spend the rest of my life believing in you. I promise to be there with you every step of the way and I promise to be the best dad I can to our daughters. I love you so much, so will you do the honor of becoming my wife?"
Rachel was on the verge of tears. "Finn, I would be honored to be your wife."
And he carefully placed the ring on her ring finger and danced (or at least tried to) with her barefoot on the beach.
A/N: There is chapter 8. The beach is my favorite place in the world and since they kind of live near one, I thought why not. I am thinking of having Isabella be named Isabella Claire Hudson and Sophia be named Sophia Eve Hudson. Also, do you think Sophia better with a "ph" or with an "f"? Well, that's enough rambling. Reviews are love. Stephanie
