Disclaimer: I own nothing except the plot of this story :)

Rachel sat frozen in her seat as she tried to process what was happening. Where was Professor Herbart? Who was this crazy girl and how did she know Finn? All these questions and more whirled in her head. Taking a breath, she decided to ask, "Where is Professor Herbart? Is she ok?"

"She's fine Rachel. If you had bothered to think when you noticed the time she requested for you to audition you would have known it was the same time as when she works with her all male glee club." Iris said with a scoff. "We're not here to talk about her though. We're here to talk about Finn and how you're going to leave him alone." So saying, she turned to the laptop that was connected to the projector. "Let's look at some pictures shall we?"

Rachel's mind began to race. How did this crazy girl know Finn? As she watched the pictures on the screen, she noticed how beautiful the girl was and how good she and Finn looked together. She also noticed that this girl had a lot of weird pictures of Finn as well, times when he was sleeping or just walking around campus with Kurt and a few people she didn't know. She tried to focus on the pictures as the crazy girl began to rant.

"You see Rachel, Finn is my soul mate. I would do anything for him. I'm sure you wouldn't follow him across campus just to make sure he got to class on time. Or text him every 15 minutes in class to make sure he was paying attention to his Professor."

A picture of Finn, Kurt and the girl Finn had been talking to at the party flashed across the screen. Iris spoke again, "Would you try and get him to stop hanging out with people who took up too much of his time? This Naomi girl is on his speed dial and they talk every day. He even has a stupid pet name for her. I can get him to break his habit of talking to his 'penguin' every day, can you?"

Rachel looked and listened in horror. No, she wouldn't change Finn or his friends, but this girl was freaking her out. How the hell did she know so much about Finn? The last few pictures began to flash on the screen. One of her and Finn came up and Rachel gasped, terrified at the thought of being followed. Iris took her gasp to mean something totally different.

"See how wrong you look together?" Iris crowed triumphantly.

Iris continued to drone on and on about how perfect she was for Finn. She told Rachel how she had met Finn and felt an instant connection. She told her of the phone calls to make sure he was breathing, the drive bys, convincing herself that Rachel would get the hint and leave him alone.

Instead, all Rachel could think of was warning Finn that there was a stalker out for him.

The slideshow proceeded to the rest of pictures of Rachel and Finn. Rachel gasped as she noticed her face had been blackened out, but she still couldn't help but notice how good they looked together.

"Do you understand now Rachel?" Iris said as she slowly circled Rachel's chair? "You can't possibly love him like I do. Finn deserves the best; someone who will care for him and make sure he's exactly where he's supposed to be. You won't do that, but I will."

"What do you want from me?" Rachel asked, her voice infused with fear, both for herself and Finn.

"Leave him alone. If you don't; I'll make your life hell. I'll make sure you NEVER get a starring role at this school. I can even make you flunk out." Iris leaned over the chair and said, "So what'll it be?"

Rachel thought for a moment. There was no way she couldn't tell him about this. Taking a breath, she put on her best performance to date, tears streaming down her face as she whispered, "I'll leave him alone." In reality, she couldn't wait to call him and warn him off this crazy person.

"I knew you'd see it my way." Iris beamed at her. "Now I'm going to leave. Sit here for 20 minutes after I leave; I don't want you following me." With that iris began to pack her things.

Rachel sat shell-shocked, wondering how to tell Finn about this and how they were going to handle it.

Meanwhile, school had let out and Finn still hadn't heard from Rachel. He assumed that was a good thing, maybe she was already rehearsing. Realizing he hadn't talked to Naomi recently he took out his phone to call her.

"Finny!" Naomi exclaimed happily in his ear. "I was just thinking of you!"

"Must be one of those brain twin moments." He teased her. They shared the same thoughts so often they occasionally teased that they shared the same brain.

"I haven't talked to you since your movie date with Kurt. He told us all about it. Something about sleeping on a couch?" She teased.
Finn felt his ears start to turn red as he said, "Well...um we're together. Me and Rachel that is. She's just so wonderful Naomi. I can't wait for you two to meet."

"Oooh well what are your plans tonight? I'm assuming you're seeing her, but I'm dying to meet the woman that has you so smitten." Naomi said with a smile. She couldn't wait to tell all kinds of embarrassing stories about Finn.

"Actually, tonight's no good. I'm taking her out to celebrate her nailing her audition with Professor Herbart." He smiled as he thought just how he was going to congratulate her later.

"Audition for what? And with Professor Herbart? Doesn't Kurt have glee with her today?" Naomi shook her head, Finn was clearly confused.
"Her audition was at 1. She had an email from Professor Herbart about it. Is Kurt's glee later?" Finn was again getting concerned about this private audition. On a hunch, he turned his car into the campus driveway instead of heading home.

"No Finny. Glee's at 1." Naomi was starting to feel uneasy and closing her eyes, she said what she should have told him yesterday. "Finn? Iris called me."

"What? Why? She didn't say anything mean to you did she?" Naomi was really sensitive and Finn was definitely overprotective of her.

"Not exactly." Bracing herself, she blurted out, "She knows about Rachel."

His heart began to pound as he put two and two together. She knew of Rachel, Rachel suddenly gets a private audition? It screamed Iris. Turning his car towards the building he knew she was auditioning in Finn said, "I gotta go find Rachel." He hung up as Naomi continued talking; cutting off her apology and request that Finn call her later.

He jumped from the truck and broke into a run to get inside the building hoping he was wrong about who was auditioning Rachel. He mumbled her name over and over as he ran to the room stopping only when he literally ran into someone.
