Hardest Days
Finn opened his eyes to see his daughter smiling "What you doing in here?"
"My Bi-day!" Grace grinned.
"It sure is" He smiled "How old are you?"
She held up 2 fingers "To"
He lifted her up over his head making her giggle "You clever girl"
"Are you going to hog my niece all day?" Kurt leant against the door-frame.
"If we was in New York, this is what we would be doing" Finn smiled.
"Ku-Ku!" Grace wriggling out of her dad's arms, jumping off the bed and ran over to him.
"Get dressed bro and get downstairs" Kurt picked his niece up and walked out of the room.
Finn looked at the picture on his bedside table of him holding Grace when she was born and sighed "2 years today"
"Daddy!" Grace squealed running over when she saw him come down the stairs.
"Hey birthday girl" Finn picked her up and kissed her cheek.
"What's up with the glasses Bro?" Kurt looked at him.
"I'm tired and couldn't be bothered putting in my contacts" Finn shrugged sitting on the sofa with Grace on his knee when his phone rang.
"Come here Munchkin while Daddy answers that" Burt smiled.
Grace jumped off his dad's and went over to her grandpa.
Finn pulled out his phone and answered it "Hey Guys"
"How did you know it was all of us?" Chuck asked.
"I just know you"
"How are you?" Nate asked.
"I'm okay" He looked over to see Grace giggling and opening presents "It gets harder"
"You have an amazing family and friends who are all there for you plus Rachel" Serena stated "And take those stupid glasses on"
"What?" He asked confused "How do you know I'm wearing them?"
"Kurt tweeted a picture of you and Gracie, which is very cute" Blair giggled.
Finn looked at his brother to see him grinning "I'll see you guys in a bit, I have a brother to kill"
"Bye Finn!"
"Bye" He hung up and glared at Kurt "You're dead"
Kurt jumped up and ran off "Finn!" He screamed running up the stairs.
"You better run Hummel!" Finn shouted jumping up and ran after him.
"Silly daddy" Grace giggled.
"Very silly" Burt chuckled.
"Let's finish opening these" Carole smiled.
"Yay!" Grace squealed.
Rachel walked into Burt's auto shop and looked around "Hey Burt"
Burt turned around and smiled pointing to a car "He's over there"
"Thanks" She walked over and sat on the work bench to see her boyfriend fixing the car "Working hard?"
Finn looked at her then back at the car "What you doing here Rach?"
"To see if you were okay"
"I'm fine" He shrugged.
"If you was fine, why are you here and not with Grace on her birthday?"
"It's hard" He sighed "I'm the worlds bad dad, I get it"
"You are not a bad dad" Rach looked at him "Grace loves you, everyone knows that today is a hard day and we're going to help you as much as we can"
Finn looked at her and a smile slowly appeared "You're the best girlfriend ever" He leaned down towards her.
She pushed him back and scrunched her nose "You have grease on your nose"
"Oh" He grabbed the cloth.
She pulled him back down "What the heck" She smiled and kissed him.
"Quit making out in the shop" Burt said as he walked past.
Rachel giggled and looked at her boyfriend "Did you eat peanut butter?"
Finn rolled his eyes "I was super hungry" He grinned and kissed her "Sue me"
She pushed him "Get back to work you goof"
Everyone is at the Hummel-Hudson house for Grace's birthday party.
Finn walked into the backyard to see his daughter playing with Beth.
"Who would of thought that we would have kids in high school" Puck grinned standing next to him.
"It's crazy, we graduate in 4 months and our daughters are 2 years old" Finn smiled "Gracie come on, cake time"
Grace ran up with Beth behind her and jumped into her dad's arms "Cake!"
Puck picked Beth up and grinned "Let's go then"
Finn walked back into the kitchen and put Grace on the chair as everyone sang 'Happy Birthday' and Burt set the cake on the table with 2 candles glowing.
He bent down to be at the height as her "Blow to candles out Princess"
Grace looked at him "Help?"
"Okay" He smiled and blew the candles out with her.
"I'm so sorry I'm late" Rachel came running in.
"Mami!" Grace squealed as everyone looked shocked.
"I'm gonna go" Rach backed up and ran out of the house.
"What just happened?" Nate looked at his best friend.
"I don't know" Finn stood up and ran out of the house "Rach!" He chased after her and stood infront of her "What's wrong?"
"I can't stay in there" Rachel looked up at him with tears in her eyes "She's just called me Mami, your friends from NY will think I'm replacing her real mum"
"I'm gonna stop you there" He smiled taking her hands in his "Grace doesn't even know her real mum and if it wasn't for me, she wouldn't be here"
"What?" She looked at him confused.
"Kayli didn't want her but I convinced to keep her" He smiled a little "She only has one mum and I hoping that would be you"
"I love you and Grace" She smiled leaning up and kissed him.
"So, is that a yes?" He grinned.
"It's a yes" She giggled "Let's go back in" She grabbed his hand and pulled upto the path then into the house.
"Mami!" Grace squealed running over and jumped into her arms then frowned "Sad?"
"I'm very happy sweetie" Rachel smiled kissing her cheek.
Finn wrapped his arms around her from behind as a flash went off "Serena!" He glared at his best friend "What the hell?"
"A new photo for Grace's album" Serena smiled.
~2 Months Later~
"Nationals" Mr Schue smiled as he stood infront of the group "We came 12th last year"
"Thanks alot Puckerman" Mercedes glared at him.
"He had it coming and it was worth it" Puck smiled.
"Well, no fights this year, got it?" Mr Schue looked at him.
"Got it" Puck nodded.
"Mr Schue, where's Finn?" Liam asked looking around "It's not like him to miss practise"
"He was gone when I got up this morning" Kurt shrugged then froze "Oh no"
"What?" Quinn looked at him "Kurt?"
"How can I be so stupid" He got up and walked out standing infront of everyone "Today is when Finn's Dad died"
"Do you know where he might be?" Jake asked.
"He would want to be alone and away from everyone" Tina sighed.
"New York!" The seniors looked at eachother.
"This is a good place to think and away from everyone"
"Nobody comes here except of us"
"I'm going" Rachel jumped up "I'll text you when I've found him" Then she ran out.
"What's in New York?" Lily asked.
"A special place, only Finn and his friends go there" Mike sat back in his chair.
"Who cares?" Sam snapped "We're suppose to practising for Nationals, not worried about someone who can't deal with losing his dad"
The whole group looked at him shocked including their coach.
"Sam" Mr Schue pointed to the door "I think you should leave"
"What?" Sam looked at him "You can't do that"
"We're a family Sam" Blaine shaked his head.
"You are not the same guy anymore" Mercedes sighed.
"Whatever" Sam got up and walked out "Good luck winning without me!"
Kurt sat back down "I hope he's okay"
"He'll be fine, he's got Rachel" Quinn smiled a little.
"We don't call them Finchel for nothing" Sasha smiled making everyone laugh.
Rachel found herself in Central Park "Please be here" She sighed walking through the park towards the hill when she saw him sitting there with his knees up and head down.
She walked up the hill "Finn"
Finn looked up with tears in his eyes "He's gone Rach"
"I know" She sat next to him wrapped her arms around him and kissed his head.
"I need him here" He rested his head on her shoulder as the tears fell "And he's not coming back"
"Everything will be okay" She rubbed his back "You have me, all your friends and family plus Grace"
"I don't deserve you" He sat up and looked at her "I have a messed up life"
"Stop it" Rachel turned his head to look at her and wiped the tears away "You're stuck with me and everyone has messed up lives including me"
"Not as messed up as mine"
"I have 2 dads" She smiled a little "I meet my birth mum and it wasn't good especially with her coaching our rival team" She looked at him "I was the diva of the school until you came along and I've changed for the better because of you"
"You've changed me too" He linked their hands together.
She rested her head against his "It's us against the world and we'll fight it, okay"
"Okay" He smiled a little and kissed her "Thank you"
"No problem" She smiled and rest his head on his shoulder.
"How did you get here?" He asked confused "It takes 8 hours to get here"
"It was lucky that my dads were coming here on a business trip and they got me a ticket" She giggled lightly "But I would of done anything to get here to see if you were okay"
"I would of been fine but I'm glad you're here" He kissed her head before resting his head onto of hers watching the sun setting.
