"How's your day so far?" Finn asked Rachel when she answered his call. It was lunch time and Rachel just got there after her shift at the diner.

"Well, I just got here at the theatre and everybody is so busy. Everyone is just so excited and nervous for the opening night so the theatre and crazy right now." She answered him as she look at the dresses she will wear for the dress rehearsal later.

"How come you're so calm there? Aren't you nervous about it?" he plays with his pen as he taps it on the folder on his table.

"I'm excited and nervous, too, but I guess I'm still not affected by the whole craziness in here. I tend to focus myself on my lines so I shut everyone else out and get into character."

"Oh, does that mean I should end this call now? So you can get into character?"

"No, it's alright. I want to hear your voice, too. And I um, I have something to tell you actually." She said, a bit hesitated.

"Okay," he said slowly. "What is it?"

"Well, I got a letter from Quinn this morning and I don't know what to do about it." she plays with her lip as she started biting it.

"Do you want me to call Quinn?" Finn asked, getting all serious all of a sudden.

"No, it's fine. I actually um, got a lot of letters from her before. I just didn't read any of them. I guess I'm just mad at her after everything that happened but right now, I'm thinking if I should read it."

"You don't have to read it, Rach." Finn said to her. "You can just throw them or ripped them into pieces."

Rachel didn't speak for a moment, thinking about what to do. She's trying to know if she is still mad at Quinn and she found out that she isn't anymore. Maybe the fact that she realized that everything that happened before was just a great misunderstanding made her realized as well that she doesn't have any reason anymore to hate her. And yes, she knows that Quinn is still in love with Finn but she's not doing anything about it and she's just grateful for that.

"She still loves you, you know," Rachel said finally. "When I caught you two kissing that day, I saw it in her eyes. The way she looked at you. That's kind of one of the reason why I was so mad that time."

"I don't love her anymore, Rach. I'm in love with you, you know that right?" Finn said, surprised at what Rachel told him. He never did talk to Quinn after what happened. He ignored her and never talked to her even if she wanted to.

"Yeah, I know. It's just that – " Rachel was interrupted when the crew called her for rehearsal. "Listen, Finn. I gotta go. I'll call you as soon as the rehearsal is over, okay? I love you!" Rachel said quickly before she hangs up.

Finn put his phone back to his pocket and takes a deep breath before facing the files on his table again. His conversation with Rachel left him with so many thoughts and he doesn't know what to do after it. Finding out that Quinn still has feelings for him is something to think about. Not because he is still in love with her too but because he thought that she was in love with Puck. That's why they broke up in the first place. Now he just hopes that Rachel would not get worried about his feelings towards her right now.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Right after rehearsal, Rachel changes her clothes before going out of the theater, only to find Finn's car already waiting for her. She was just about to call him to say that rehearsal's over but it's still a good thing that he's there right now. She's tired and she just wants to rest and be with him right now. Rehearsal was brutal. They had to do it again and again from the start when someone messes up. And that someone is usually her. She had been distracted about Quinn and her letter that she messed up a couple of times. She's just glad that the director and her cast mates weren't mad at her.

"Hey," Finn greeted her once she got inside his car. She encircled her arms around him immediately and laid her head on his chest. "Everything alright, babe?"

"Yeah," she said softly. "I'm just tired."

"Let's get you home, okay?" Finn said as he rubs her back.

"Okay. Let's go to yours." Rachel says as she closes her eyes. "I just want to cuddle with you all day. Or maybe do something else."

Finn raises his eyebrows. "I thought you were tired?" Finn chuckles softly.

"I know. But I still got energy left for that."

Finn didn't say anything after that, just kissing Rachel's head as Thomas drove their way back to his house.

A couple of minutes later, Finn's house were filled with silence except for the moans and groans of pleasure of the two coming from Finn's bedroom.

"I miss you, so much." Rachel says as she moves herself up and down on top of Finn. Finn bites his lip as he holds and squeezes Rachel's behind as they made love.

"I miss you more, more than you ever known." Finn looks at her in the eye. Rachel suddenly moves faster on top of Finn, making the both them moan loudly. They're just thankful that his house is soundproof and no one is there beside the two of them or they both would be so humiliated when someone hears them.

Finn suddenly flips them both so Finn would be on top of Rachel now. Finn pushes into her faster, holding both of Rachel's hand.

"I love you, I love you, I love you," Finn whispers on her ear as they both found their releases, making Rachel gasped loudly and bite Finn's shoulder.

Finn slides off of Rachel and pulls her closer to him as they both snuggled and takes a few deep breaths.

"Are you sure you're tired?" Finn says, teasing Rachel. Rachel just poked him with her elbow, making him laugh.

"How come you're horny when tired?" Finn asked, kissing Rachel on the head.

"I think it's just you," Rachel replied.

Finn smiled. "Good to know."

Both of them didn't speak for a little while as they enjoy being close to each other like this. Rachel plays with Finn's hands while Finn sighs contently next to her.

All of a sudden, Rachel stops playing with his hand and thought about what she was supposed to about Quinn and her letter. She still has her letter on her bag and right now, she just wants to end all of her problems once and for all.

"I haven't read Quinn's letter yet." Rachel says to Finn.

Finn blinks a few times. "I thought you don't want to deal with her anymore?"

Rachel sighs. "I just don't want to deal with any of this anymore. I just want to have this life where I can spend it with you without thinking of anything bad."

Finn turns Rachel to face him and looks at her in her eyes. "Do you want to read it with me?"

Rachel stares at him for a moment before nodding. She then slowly stands up and go to her bag to get the letter that Quinn sent to her. She then turns around and went back to Finn who is now sat up on his bed and leaning his body against the headboard.

"Last chance to back out about this." Finn says, worried about what's inside Quinn's letter and Rachel's reaction about it after. They just have a wonderful time being back together and he doesn't want to spoil it with anything.

Rachel started tearing the side of the envelope as Finn watches her. The envelope contains only one paper with Quinn's handwriting.

Rachel,

I know I have been so persistent on sending you letters for this past couple of years and I'm sorry. I just really want to apologize for everything that I had cause you and Finn. If you haven't read my previous letters before this, it's okay. But I want to write again to you until you will forgive for what I've done. I let Finn kissed me that night because I thought I still love him that time. I looked at him like that because I was looking for a sign, any sign that will tell me that he has still feelings for me. But I didn't. All I see is nothing but confusion when he realizes that it was me he was kissing. He has this look on his eye that he only does when he was looking or thinking of you and I found that that night. I realized something too. After that kiss, I thought I will still have the same feelings for him but I didn't. Maybe that is the reason why we broke up in college. Because I was in love with someone else.

I have a new boyfriend now and it reminds me of Puck. Well, maybe because he really looks like him and acts like him. And maybe that was the reason I agreed on dating him. Yeah, maybe it is. I am still in love with Puck and I don't know what to do about it.

Again Rachel, I'm so, so sorry for what I did with you and Finn. I wished that I can just take it all back and we can just all return to normal but I know I can't the damage is already done.

I really hope that you and Finn work things out and be back together. Finn is really different when he's with you. He's at his best when his with you and I think that is one of the reason why he loves you so much. You make him be at his best all the time because you believe in him and love him like no one else can.

I really hope that you can forgive and put this thing behind us. I know it's going to take some time to do that but I understand. Take all the time that you need.

Take care of yourself Rachel and I hope that if we see each other next time, it would be different than the last time.

Q

P.S. Don't tell anyone what I just said about Puck :)

Rachel folded the paper back and went silent. Finn stared at him, wondering what she is thinking. He had been reading the letter next to her and watches her a few times as she read it too.

"Rach?" Finn asked.

Rachel slowly turns to look at him and smiled. It was something he didn't realize he would see at her but it made him exhaled in relief.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"Yeah, I just, I'm happy that I read the letter, I guess. It's like there's this big burden that I have been carrying with me when I found Quinn's letter this morning and now, it's just gone."

Finn's brows rose. "What now, then?"

"I don't know." She shrugs. "I'm not that sure if I already forgiven her but for now, I'm happy that she wrote this."

Finn nodded. "Me, too. That thing with Puck though. It made me curious."

"Yeah, me too. Don't tell him about it though, okay?" Rachel leans back to the headboard too. "I know you two are at being friends so don't spill any of this with him."

"Well, we're not really that friends but sure, I won't tell him."

"Good. Because if you do, you won't be getting any of this anymore." she pulls him by his neck and kisses him, making him groan. She then moves to straddle him and grind onto him.

Neither of them talks about anything after that. They're too busy to do anything anyway.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Santana left her house that morning with so much worry. She was about to go and see Sam, the guy who she broke his heart when she broke up with him years ago. It's not that she wanted to come back to him or something; she just figured that they really need to have this conversation and decide what to do with their lives after.

But before she goes to him, she made a quick stop at Finn's house to ask for some advice. She didn't actually call to say that she was coming over but she knows that he's not usually busy on Thursday. So she came inside his apartment using her key and walk towards Finn's bedroom.

What she sees inside made her blink her eyes a couple of times to know if she's just imagining things or not. But she isn't. What she's seeing is real. Finn and Rachel are on the bed, sleeping close to each other and most importantly, naked.

She smirks as she steps inside his bedroom and look around to see the discarded clothes lying on the floor.

She crossed her arms and turns back to the two lovebirds on the bed as Finn started to blinks his eyes open.

"Well, well, well. Had a fun night, Grey?" She asks him when his eyes focused on her.

"Santana?" He sat up immediately on the bed before checking Rachel next to her if her body was covered with the sheets. "What the fuck are you doing here?"

"Oh relax, Grey. I'm not here to join you for a friendly threesome. I'm just wanted to talk to you because I thought you'd be awake by now and already preparing to go to work. But clearly you have been busy last night, making Rachel ride you into your orgasms." She gestures her hand, pointing the two of them on the bed.

Rachel stirs and finally awoken by the sound of the voices on the room. She turns to see Finn first but her brows furrowed when she saw him sitting up and looking at someone. She then turns and find Santana looking at her with a raised eyebrow.

"Santana!" she says, clutching the sheet to cover her body.

"Okay, why do you two always think that I would sneak a peek on Rachel's lady parts, huh? Do I look someone who's interested to look at that?" she says as she pointed to Rachel's body with disgust on her face.

"What are you even doing here?" Rachel snaps, embarrass and mad with her for breaking their love bubble too early.

"I'm here for Finn, not for you. Get dress, Grey. I'll be waiting outside. I can't stand any longer the smell of sex in this room." She groans before finally turning to leave.

Rachel slumped back to bed and sighed. "Remind me again why she's you're best friend?"

"Don't ask," Finn groans as he rubs his eyes before standing up and putting on his boxers and his pants.

"I won't be long," he kisses her cheeks before going outside to face his best friend, leaving Rachel going back to a deep slumber.

Outside Finn's room, Santana sits down on the couch and crossed her legs as she watches Finn lazily drags himself out of his bedroom and went to the kitchen. She heard some movements until Finn came back with a glass of water with him.

"Aren't you gonna offer me something?" Santana asks.

Finn scoffed. "After waking me up too early, you still me expect me to have hospitality with you?" he said. He started to drink from the glass he brought and emptied it. It's all his needed right now to make his body awake. He can get coffee later once Rachel woke up.

"Fine." She watches him for a minute, looking at him as he tried his best to make himself awake. They slept late last night because of their sexual activities that still left him and Rachel unsatisfied until the wee hours in the morning.

Santana just smirks at him. "Damn, Rachel really did you hard last night."

"Just get to the point, Santana. I wanna go back to sleep." Finn yawned and leaned back to the couch.

"Well, I'm going to see Sam today." She waited for Finn to response but all she got was a raised eyebrow so she continued. "I thought that maybe we should talk about a lot of things. You know, how we, or I guess I, left things." She shrugs.

"And you're coming to me for what exactly?" Finn asked.

"Well, to be honest, I have no idea what to do when I get there. Everything is going to be so awkward and I don't know if I should just talk right away or not."

"Just do what you always do. Get to the point quickly. Sam knows you already and I think he wants to talk to you too so don't let the both of you get so beat up by it and just talk already."

"It's not really that simple, Grey. You know – "

"Look, Santana, you both still love each other, okay? So why don't you just get back together and be like before." Finn stand, getting tired already by all of the talking. He really needs to go back to sleep and be with Rachel.

"Now, if you're done thinking by yourself, you can just let yourself out, I'm going back to bed." Finn said before turning and going back to his bed where he pulls Rachel close to him and gets back to sleep.

Santana sighed, thinking of what Finn had just said about her and Sam. She's surprised at what he said actually because she knows Finn is right. She still loves Sam and she misses him so much every day since she broke up with him. She just need to talk him right now and ask, nicely if she could, to just talk about it and hope they can work it out. She just really hopes right now that Sam's feelings are still the same as before. Because that would just break her if it isn't.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Sam troubled himself at his house as he played at his Xbox. He hasn't been playing for a long time now, since he always got shot every time he reaches level 3. Yeah, he lacks practice. Or maybe his mind is just not on the game. It is lurking someplace he knows it not supposed to be there.

Santana. Damn, every time his mind went back to her, he feels depressed and distracted. Even when he's working, his mind just can't get anything done when she's thinking about her.

Being with Rachel doesn't help either. He thought that if he start hanging out with Rachel and asked her out on a date, the feeling will go away. But every time he comes home or every time he became alone, Santana kept on coming back to his mind. Maybe that's the reason why he is fine when Rachel said to him that they just not going to work. He didn't even feel rejected or hurt when she told him that. Yeah, he's sad because he thought that somehow Rachel will take away the pain that Santana left to him and Rachel is a great girl. Finn is just a douche bag for doing stupid things every time when she's with Rachel.

"Damn it." he cursed once again when he got shot once again when he's almost to level 4. He sighed in defeat and throws the joystick next to him at the couch. He took a swig on his beer and leaned back on the couch. Maybe he needs to just get laid and everything will get back to normal. He snorted at the thought. His dick won't even get hard anymore even he watches porn. Yeah, he's that broken.

His thoughts were distracted when he heard his front door open. He turns his head to see who it was and was surprised to see the girl who he just thinking about stands not so far from where he is.

He slowly stands and blink a few times just to be sure he's seeing what he really is seeing. Yeah, she's there alright.

"Hey," Santana said almost as a whisper. He was so used to her talking so loud and crude that he never heard her like this before. She seems nervous, like any minute she's about to melt anytime when he stared at her another minute long.

"Hey," he said finally. "What're you doing here?"

"Um, well," Santana locks the strands of hair that fallen out of place to the back of her ear. If this isn't just so serious and scary, Sam would have smiled at her for being so cute right now.

"We both know that we have some stuff to talk about, but I'm here to apologize mostly." She shrugs.

"Okay," he said slowly, still quite in disbelief that she's here. Holy crap, she's really here!

"Okay, then." She looks down from his gaze. "May I sit?"

"Oh yeah, of course." Sam said quickly moving a bit from the couch to give space for her. He turned the TV off and arranges his coffee table, removing the cans of beer and an empty box of pizza and put it on the trash bag on the kitchen. He then returned to the living room as he stares at Santana who is already sitting on the couch.

"Look, I know you know that I'm not really this sentimental person," Santana began, a bit nervous as she tries to say Sam everything she wants to say without being so pathetic and bitchy. "I don't actually know how to apologize properly but still, I wanna try. I'm sorry, Sam, for leaving, for breaking up with you and for not even fighting for what we had. I've never been in a relationship like what we had before and to be honest, it did scare me.

"You're perfect, almost too perfect for me. And I'm just, me. You have given me so much that I can't really return to you and I thought that maybe you're better off with someone else. I still think you are but I just-I can't see you with anyone. It would hurt me so bad if you do. It's selfish I know but it is kinda your fault that you made me fall in love with you so," she shrugs. She then takes a deep breath when Sam still stares at her and listen. "I guess what I'm trying to say is that … I love you, Sam Evans and it never fade away and – " she stops immediately when Sam holds up his hand to stop her. And the thought of being rejected that fast came quickly into her mind making her teary-eyed.

But Sam simply just smiled at her. And all the thoughts of living her life without Sam in her life gone away so quickly like a lightning bolt.

"I love you, too, Santana." He then fills the gap between the two of them and crashes his lips to hers, making their conversation done and their relationship status to being back together, finally.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Everything looks like going smoothly with Rachel and Finn's relationship, as Finn sees it. Sure they recently just got back together but it feels more different now than before for him. They have come a long way since they two met and for first time, he feels safer than before, fewer worries on their relationship breaking again.

And as Rachel busies herself with the rehearsals and her shifts at the diner, Finn is also busy planning some stuff up. He really wants Rachel to be happy being with him every time and doing this plan for her is already making him excited knowing that Rachel will like it.

The two of them met for lunch and talks animatedly about how their days are while they are separated. They can't really be with each other for long because Rachel's schedule is quite tight and she really needs to go to rehearsals right away. Finn is a bit sad about it but look at the bright side, now he's got more time to focus on his plan without Rachel finding it out so it's good for now.

"Mr. Hudson?" Tina peeks inside his office after knocking. "Everything is set now, sir."

"Okay, thanks." Finn said as he fixes his tie and coat. He's quite anxious for what's going to happen but if it will make Rachel happy, it's all totally worth it.

He make his way out of his office building, anxiety is still building up to his body. When he reaches outside, Thomas greeted him and opens the door of the car for him. But before he could get inside, a familiar face walk towards him.

"Hey, Huddy," Puck greeted him. "Hey, T. What's up?" Thomas just nodded at him.

"What're you doing here?" Finn asked.

"Nothing. I was bored at my apartment so I decided to go here and see if you're just spending your day staring at papers. Where are you going?"

Finn frowned. "None of your business." He grumbled before finally getting inside the car. Yeah, he is still not cool with Puck trying to be his friend again.

The door to the other side of the car opens and Puck suddenly gets in, making Finn burrowed his eyebrows and glared at him.

"What the fuck are you doing?" He snaps at him.

"I decided a while ago to come with you," Puck shrugs. "It's okay, though. I don't mind."

Thomas gets in and starts the car. He's got no time to fight with Puck anymore so he just snap his mouth shut, leaving him with no choice but to let Puck come with him.

"So where are we really going? You know I hate surprises." Puck asks once again but Finn just ignores him. He's too busy thinking about what is going to happen later. He just heard Puck muttered something next to him before looking outside his window.

The ride to their destination didn't take too long that Finn doesn't have enough time to prepare himself. The car stops in front of a building and the three climbs out of the car.

Puck looks at the top of the building where he furrowed his eyebrows and takes a double look at it to make it sure that he's really where he is right now.

"Dude," he muttered. "Wait, are you – do you have a problem or something? I mean we go to the bar once a week but I never thought you're – "

"Shut up Puckerman, this is not what you think this is." Finn rolled his eyes as the two of them make their way inside the building.

Puck is still confused about what's really happening and look around. The place looks elegant, too elegant for a place like this. He stops a few feet away from Finn as he talks to someone he doesn't know. He can't hear anything that they're saying and it's making him irritated.

Finally Finn started to walk again, not caring if Puck is following him or not. He just want to do this already. The suspense is making him more nervous.

Puck, still confused and starting to get annoyed, follows Finn and catches up to him until he is next to him. He turns to Finn again and asks him once again.

"Dude, what are we doing in a treatment facility?"

Puck looks at him as Finn blinks his eyes as if deciding if he should tell him the reason. Finally, Finn sighs and glanced at him before saying, "We're here to visit Rachel's dad."
