All was silent in their secluded section of the park for a few moments until Rachel coughed awkwardly.

"Erm..." She began, shifting on ground uncomfortably, "Yes." She answered as Mike wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer, resting his chin on her shoulder.

Finns face took up a crestfallen expression for a few seconds before it quickly shifted into an angry one.

"What?" He demanded angrily. "It's been four days Rach. Four days and you're already running around with some other guy!"

"Finn, our relationship was really over weeks ago. And Michael is not 'some guy' as you so eloquently phrased, he is a gentleman who doesn't forget about me or try to change me, thank you very much." Rachel snapped, reaching back to adjust the brown clip that was holding back half of her curled hair primly and leaning back into Mike a little more.

Finn opened his mouth a few times, but kept stuttering on his words.

"Rachel, I never-" Finn began only to be cut off by a feminine voice heading towards the trio.

"Finn? What's taking so long? Reggie's getting impatient without his disk." The voice giggled, sounding oddly familiar to the teens.

"Quinn?" Rachel asked, raising an eyebrow at the girl as she rounded the corner and joined the other three, a large golden retriever trailing after her.

"Yes?" She greeted curtly, equally as surprised to see her nemesis.

"Oh my lord." Rachel groaned, standing up from her spot and whirling around, jabbing her finger at her tall ex-boyfriend and allowing her voice to gain a decidedly enraged tone. "How dare you Finn Hudson? You come here and yell at me about being out with another boy when you are here as well with another girl. You sicken me. I am beyond thrilled that I finally noticed your idiocy because you are such a hypocrite. I can't even believe you. You know what? I actually can because this is such a Finn move. I am always in the wrong but Finn 'golden boy' Hudson can do no wrong can he? He cheats on his pregnant girlfriend and it's okay. He is a total and complete, God I can't believe I'm going to say this, ass hole to his girlfriend and it's all my fault for breaking up with you? No. No. Absolutely not. Just, oh my God, just leave Finn. Go."

Rachel took a deep breathe and shot him a withering glare, lowering her hand and gesturing for him to leave.

"You... you cheated on me Finn?" Quinn whispered for her spot a few feet away, everyone whipping their heads to stare at her, having completely forgotten she was there.

"What? I don't know." Finn blurted out quickly, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly.

Rachel laughed bitterly, "Oh he never told you? He kissed me while you were pregnant and still dating him. Twice. He kept saying he was going to end it with you but never did."

"You did what?" Quinn shrieked, glaring at Finn.

Finn just widened his eyes, trying to find a way out his current predicament.

"I.. Quinn. You cheated on me." He reminded weakly.

"Yes Finn, but I came clean and apologized profusely." Quinn spat, glaring at him once more before twirling around and stormed off in a way that made Rachel proud, the dog trotting off after her. Finn shot Rachel a somewhat disappointed look as he ran after the blonde.

Rachel groaned loudly and covered her face with her hands. "I am so, so sorry."

"Don't be. S'not your fault." Mike said softly, pulling her back into his arms and kissing her on the head.

"I've totally ruined this date. I'm sorry Mike. It was so lovely until Finn came in here with his self-righteous attitude and ugh. I'm sorry, this night it about us, not him." Rachel apologized again, melting back into her dates arms.

"You don't have to apologize babe, he sucks, I know. He deserved it. We should probably head back soon anyway." Mike replied.

"Awe." Rachel whined, "Do we have too?"

Mike smiled and kissed her on the cheek to erase her pout. "I guess not."

"Good, I've always wanted to watch the sun set." Rachel told him, adjusting in his arms so she was staring up at the sky. She sighed quietly and nuzzled Mikes neck a little, biting her lip to conceal the outrageously large smile threatening to break out on her face.

The two sat in relative silence as the sun went down, both taking in the beauty. Went the sky finally turned dark, Mike spoke up quietly.

"Okay, now we probably should go. Puck might kill me if I keep you out too late the night before a final." Mike prodded, sitting up a little and beginning to pack up the basket.

Rachel pouted a little but nodded, sliding her feet back into her shoes and pulling on her jacket which had come off at some point during the meal.

"Oh Mike?" Rachel said softly to get the boys attention.

"What's up babe?" Mike replied, placing the now full basket on the ground.

Rachel grabbed the front of his shirt and tugged him forward, leaning up on her toes- even in her heels- and pecked him softly in the lips. "This was a wonderful date. Thank you so much."

Mike smiled goofily at her and kissed her lightly once more. "My pleasure babe."

With that he slung an arm around her shoulders and led her back to the car. He helped her in and they quickly drove through town towards her house, their hands clasped together over the gear shift the entire time. When they arrived he opened her door and lifted her out of the tall car, once again taking her hand and walking her to her door.

"You didn't have to walk me to my door Mike." Rachel blushed.

"I wanted to." He replied, tucking a stray hair behind her ear, causing her to blush harder.

"Oh. That's good because I was secretly very pleased that you did." Rachel whispered conspiratorially with a giggle.

Mike chuckled with her. Their laughter died down and soon they were standing there in utter silence, looking at each other with matching goofy smiles.

"I should..." Rachel trailed off, reaching for her door.

Before she could grasp the handle though, Mike grabbed her hand and used it to pull her flush against him.

"Thanks for coming out with me tonight Rach." He mutter before gently pressing his lips against hers only to have her grab him by the back of the neck and deepen the kiss, causing him to tighten his grip on her hips. When they pulled apart they were both panting lightly and had pink cheeks.

"Any time Mike." Rachel said and with a bright smile towards the boy, she threw open the door and entered the house, closing the door softly behind her and leaned against it, an insanely huge smile blooming on her flushed face.

"Alright woman," Santana began, rounding the corner from the living room, "Spill."


there ya go, some cherry fluff!
