So, this is my short and simple one-shot. The year is 2019 and it's Rachel and Finn talking about a future family.

This suggestions was from songstobesung so thank you!

Enjoy :)

Rachel and Finn were both exhausted. They'd been at the hospital all night whilst Quinn was delivering her second baby, who was named Laura Puckerman. As Finn and Rachel were the only ones who lived close enough tot he hospital, they went to comfort Puck, who was just as worried as when Beth was born.

After the thirteen hours spent in the hospital, they found themselves lying on the bed, not having enough effort to even get changed. Rachel pulled herself closer to Finn's warm body, snuggling into his chest.

He smiled down at her, daring the ask the question that had been bugging him," Rach."

"Hmmm?" she said into his chest, not moving a muscle.

"Never mind." Why am I such a coward?

At this, she craned her neck so that she was facing him," What is it Finn?"

"It's not important," he mumbled, though it was very important.

"You've made me curious now," she pouted.

"I don't know whether I should. It's kind of a serious question."

She smiled, looking straight into his eyes," You can ask me anything Finn. You know that."

He sat up in bed, staring at the sheets," I was, well, thinking...on the way home. Puck and Quinn have two kids now, and Tina and Artie have one. It made me wonder, are we going to have any?"

The expression on Rachel's face was hard to read, and Finn didn't know what else to say. She had now sat up to, looking down, though occasionally glancing at him.

"Rach, you're kinda creeping me out. Maybe I shouldn't have brought it up," he tried to think of something to change the subject to, but Rachel began to talk.

"No, you were right to," she paused, taking hold of his hand," I'm not sure what to say. Our lives have sort of been pretty hectic with working and all, I never really had the time to stop and think about it. Do you want children?"

He already knew the answer," I do. I guess I've always wanted one, ever since the whole thing with Quinn. When I'd thought that I was going to have a daughter, I'd sometimes just imagine spending time with her. I know it's silly."

"It isn't," she assured him, smiling.

"What about you? Do you want to have kids?"

Unlike him, she found herself deep in thought, weighing up the pros and cons, but it was really a way of avoiding her biggest fear," I don't know."

"Really? Because I would have thought that it'd be something you'd really want."

Rachel found herself intrigued by his words," Why?"

"It just seems like you act as a mother to lots of people. You're great with kids. I saw you with some of my cousins at mum and Burt's wedding. Why don't you want to have any?"

"I-I," she stammered, before realising that it would be best just to be honest," I don't want to be like Shelby. I'm scared that I won't be a good enough mother"

When the tears fell down her cheek, Finn wiped them away, rocking her in his arms," Shh, it's alright."

"It's not. What if I end up like her? If I had children, I wouldn't like to hurt them the way she hurt me."

"But you wouldn't," Finn was certain of it," Rachel, you'd be the most amazing mother in this world. Your loving and kind and really smart. With you as a mum, no kid would turn out bad."

She smiled, tightening her grip on him," I guess I'm just over reacting a little."

"You don't need to worry Rach."

"I know. I think I do want kids, it's just sometimes I have the tendency to think that I'm not good enough for them, and I certainly don't want to be one of those couples who have a dog instead of kids. It's just a big step. I'll get stretch marks, morning sickness, I'll gain loads of weight and have terrible mood swings for nine months. Do you think you can handle that?"

Finn laughed," Rachel. I think I'm prepared for this. I mean, you have mood swings all the time. Why should nine months be any different?"

"Just wait," she warned, eyes growing wide," Pregnant women are dangerous."

He shook his head, amused by her. She smiled, imagining what it would be like if she actually were pregnant. As each got lost in their silent thought, the time went on. The only noise in the room was the busy room beneath them and the hustle of people next to it.

"If we did have kids," Rachel found herself whispering," how many would you want?"

"Hmm, that's a tough one. I wouldn't want just one because it sort of sucked being an only child and when Kurt became my brother, it was a lot better. And I know that you don't want too many kids because you have your shows and I have to travel sometimes for my reports. It would be very inconvenient."

Rachel nodded," I agree. I think two or three would be nice."

"Yeah," Finn smiled," And I hope that all of them, however many we have, are all as talented and beautiful as you."

"I know that they'll be as loving and full of heart as you are."

They shared a long, intense stare, which led to them both grinning at each other. Finn once more held her close to him, his arm around her shoulder protectively. She leant her head on his shoulder, smiling," You're comfy."

Finn laughed, kissing the top of her head softly. They both fell back against the pillows, though neither was tired any more.

"Hey Rach, what do you think our kids will look like?"

She looked at him with a smirk," there's only one way to find out."

And she leant, giving him a hungry kiss which left him wanting more. Finn smiled through the kiss, reaching to undress her. But this wasn't just any sex. They were going to create a life, so they had to work extra hard.

Thoughts and opinions? I've already decided how many kids they have, but you'll find out in future one shots. By the way, thanks for your suggestions everyone, I'm working on as many as possible!

Keep them up though.
