I was listening to this song, and I thought it would be perfect for the moment when Finn realises that he's in love. Takes place before Regionals so will be 2010.
Enjoy!
Finn was sat down, anxiously awaiting their turn to go on the stage. As everyone began to discuss whether or not they'd win, he pulled out his ipod, thinking that he'd get more nervous than he already was if he listened to if for any longer.
One of his favourite songs began to play into the headphones and he found himself bobbing his head to the music.
So she said what's the problem baby
What's the problem I don't know
Well maybe I'm in love (love)
Think about it every time
I think about it
Can't stop thinking 'bout it
Love. He thought that he'd been in love once, with Quinn, but it was only after the whole baby drama that he realised it was more like you'd love a sister. That was what she was, his little sister. She was no Rachel. Rachel was a completely different story. She made him feel happy and excited and nervous at the same time.
Was that love?
How much longer will it take to cure this
Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love)
Makes me wanna turn around and face me but I don't know nothing 'bout love
That was true. He knew nothing about love. He had no father to talk about it with, so how was he supposed to know what love was? But then, these feelings with Rachel. They keep growing and growing and sometimes he feels like he she's the only person he needs.
Come on, come on
Turn a little faster
Come on, come on
The world will follow after
Come on, come on
Cause everybody's after love
He thought about everyone who he knows, searching for love, still unsure of what it was. Maybe Quinn and Puck had found it. She never loved him.
He wondered whether he was searching for it. From across the room, Rachel smiled over at him, and he felt himself grinning back. She looks so beautiful.
So I said I'm a snowball running Well baby I surrender
Running down into the spring that's coming all this love
Melting under blue skies
Belting out sunlight
Shimmering love
To the strawberry ice cream
Never ever end of all this love
Well I didn't mean to do it
But there's no escaping your love
Finn remembered times with Rachel, and the most prominent part of the memory was how he always felt like he could himself around her. No having to keep his reputation. She didn't care how cool he was. She liked him for who he was. And he liked her just the way she was.
These lines of lightning
Mean we're never alone,
Never alone, no, no
Rachel never made him feel alone. He'd said it himself, right to her face. He wondered ... did she love him?
Come on, Come on Come on, come on
Move a little closer
Come on, Come on
I want to hear you whisper
Come on, Come on
Settle down inside my love
Jump a little higher
Come on, come on
If you feel a little lighter
Come on, come on
We were once
Upon a time in love
The more he thought about it, the more it came obvious. He must be in love.
The way she felt when he held her in his arms.
How her smile always made him feel better, reassured and accepted.
When she looked at him, he couldn't tear himself away from her big brown eyes, lost within her soul
Yes, he was definitely in love.
We're accidentally in love
Accidentally in love
Accidentally in love
Him and Rachel had fallen in love. He was pretty sure that an accident was something that wasn't supposed to happen.
Yeah he thought the geek and the quarterback. Definitely not meant to fall in love. But we have. I have.
Accidentally
Finn now felt himself grinning widely. He was in love! He wanted to shout it out, but knew that everyone would look at him as though he'd completely lost it.
I'm In Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
Accidentally
I'm In Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
Accidentally
He felt the excitement run through his whole body as the words repeated themselves. One day, I'll sing this to Rachel.
Come on, come on
Spin a little tighter
Come on, come on
And the world's a little brighter
Come on, come on
Just get yourself inside her
Love ...I'm in love
He knew that he had to tell someone, and who better than Rachel. They stood in front of the door, turning to send her a smile, one which he hadn't been able to get rid for the last ten minutes.
She began walking over to him and, ordinarily he would have got nervous, but not now.
"Break a leg."
"I love you."
There! He'd said it. After weeks of wondering and confusion, he knew that he cared for Rachel more than anyone else in the world. He was in love with her. He fell in love by accident and he sort of had glee to thank for that.
So, thoughts? This was more of a spontaneous one really and it's a lot shorter than normal.
