"I need more light Rach" Finn said as he rummaged around in the basement.
"Maybe if we had more than a penlight" she commented holding the small flashlight farther away from her and closer to the pile of boxes.
The small beam of light barely illuminated the boxes and Finn grumbled in frustration.
"You really can't be angry at your own inability to plan efficiently"
"Gee sorry Rach, because I planned for the power to go out" Finn snapped moving a box to the side an opening another.
"Well maybe if you had batteries in your emergency supply kit" she said evenly.
"What emergency supply kit?" Finn looked up at her from where he was squatting.
"Exactly my point Finn" she began "You need to always be prepared for an emergency, weather is unpredictable; Blizzards, Floods, Tornado's, Hurricanes. You never know when you will need to be ready Finn; blankets, canned food and batteries."
"Hurricane's? This is Ohio Rachel" he laughed at her frustrated expression.
"Is that all you heard? You never know what can happen Finn."
"Right, those Mississippi River Hurricanes can be brutal" he full on laughed at her.
"Yeah it's so funny Finn" she waived the small pen light around to prove her point.
"Fine, point taken" he grumbled moving another box.
He strained to find what he was looking for in the inky darkness, getting frustrated that it was taking him so long to find the camping supplies. He moved over to the other side of the pile he was working on and dove into some more boxes.
"You know Finn if you were a bit more organized then maybe this wouldn't be such an ordeal. If you clearly labeled the boxes and sorted them by season then…."
"Rachel" Finn looked up at her "Can you just…. Can it."
"Nice Finn, I'm just trying to help you out"
"Gee thanks" he rolled his eyes.
He opened another box and sighed in relief. Thank goodness he had finally found the camping supplies. He pulled out a lantern and turned it on, the basement illuminating in the soft light.
"Better?" He smiled up at Rachel with that crooked grin and she rolled her eyes at him slipping the pen light into the pocket of her jeans.
He pulled out two other lanterns and slid the box to the side. On the floor behind it were two small heaters that ran off of 12V batteries. Finn was now thankful that Burt had convinced him to take annual family camping trips. He had bought the heaters to keep Jackson warm in the small cottage they always rented. He slid them over to join the lanterns and picked up the two 12V batteries. His muscles flexed as he held up heavy batteries in the palm of his hands, his biceps straining.
"They don't put off a lot of heat but should keep his room warm enough" he explained to Rachel who was trying to juggle the 3 lanterns in her small arms. She looked at Finn easily palming the two batteries and shook her head. They ascended the stairs and Rachel busied herself with setting up the lanterns as Finn bolted back down the stairs to grab the heaters. After Finn had set them up in Jack's room he put more fire on the fireplaces in both his room and the living room. The house was silent except for the small blipping from Jack's handheld video game system. Finn went back down stairs passing his son on the couch and stood in the doorway to the kitchen, watching Rachel fuss around by the light of the lantern, trying to throw a dinner together for the three of them. She was moving around the kitchen like second nature, pulling stuff from the fridge and cabinets. Finn felt a comforting feeling of home watching her take care of his family, it was like nothing in the past had happened and she was taking care of their family. Finn saw her reaching high into a cabinet, up on her tiptoes, her calf muscles straining. Those legs, oh how he loved those legs. He walked across the kitchen and easily handed her the can of fruit, turning back and leaning on the counter
"Thanks" she said softly
"Any time munchkin"
Rachel flushed, he hadn't called her that since high school and it wasn't something she he had called her in public.
"So Chef, what are we having" he asked.
"Well I made egg salad for you guys, since the eggs will probably go bad anyway. With chips and fruit"
"What about you?"
"I'm going to eat the rest of this salad" she held up half a bagged salad "with oil and vinegar"
"What no sprouts?" Finn laughed as she smacked his arm.
Finn adjusted the heaters safely in Jackson's room and tucked him into bed. It was just after 8pm but the little boy was out like a light. He threw a few extra blankets over his son's small frame before rejoining Rachel in the living room. She was sitting on the couch looking into the roaring fire. Finn looked at the stack of firewood beside the hearth and hoped it would last the rest of the evening. He had plenty of wood in the shed, all the way out in the yard, buried in the snow. Finn sat next to Rachel and pulled the end of the blanket over himself.
"Thank you for everything today Rach" he said turning to look into her brown eyes.
She smiled back at him and rested her head on his shoulder. She felt exhausted and content all at the same time.
"It was no problem Finn"
They sat in a comforting silence watching the flames leap around their brick prison. She could feel the steady rhythm of his breath and feel the beat of his heart as she leaned against his strong frame. Her eyes fluttered shut, the activities of the day catching up with her. Finn slid his arm around her shoulders as she curled her legs up on the couch beside her. The fire made a soothing crackling sound and Rachel wasn't even sure Finn was awake anymore.
"I've missed you Rachel" his voice was barely above a whisper.
She looked up at him and saw a look of pure honesty in his eyes.
"I've missed this" he continued.
She knew they had agreed on a simple friendship, a return to the days of early Glee Club, before they dated, when they were each other's best friends and nothing more. But Rachel doubted her ability to maintain that, because for her there had always been something more with Finn. For Rachel, Finn had always and only been it. From the moment he joined Glee and came tumbling into her life, Finn Hudson had her. There would never be anyone else that she felt so completely at ease with. She could open up her soul and bear it completely to Finn, she had the ability to be emotionally naked with him and that made her feel liberated. It always had.
"I did too Finn, I'm glad we are able to be friends again"
"No Rachel, I've missed you" his eyes were filled with emotion "I've missed us. Today working as a team with you, it felt right. It felt like…"
"Family" she finished his words for him because that was exactly what she was feeling.
"Yeah" he said shifting so she could look up at him easier "The way you stepped up and took care of my son. It was awesome Rach. Gretchen was his mother and she couldn't even step up. She left him, she left me, she…"
Rachel searched his face "Finn"
His eyes were burning into hers as he studied her face in the flickering firelight. Then his lips were on hers before she could even react. She melted into his embrace as his arms slid around her, his lips hungrily attacking hers. Finn was overwhelmed with emotion. He had dreamed of kissing these lips again for over a decade and here he was holding Rachel Berry tight to him, his lips burning against hers as his tongue dipped into her mouth. Her tongue met his own frantic pace as one circled the other. Finn scooted Rachel back until her back was pressed up against the arm of the couch. Finn laid half on top of her, his arms firmly around her body as her arms circled his neck. Her fingers played with the hair at the nape of his neck sending shivers down his spine. Rachel slid her knee up along the back of the couch allowing Finn to settle between her thighs, she could feel his growing erection against her and there was nothing she could think of more than having him buried deep inside of her body. The idea both thrilled and scared Rachel at the same time, Finn was well endowed and it had been a long time since Rachel had been intimate with anyone. On her side she felt Finns arm move pushing up the side of hoodie she was still wearing, he pulled his lips away from hers and rose to his knees. The look in his eyes now was one of pure passion, he grabbed the bottom of the hoodie and pulled at it as she lifted to allow him to remove it. The cold air of the room hit her skin, hardening her nipples and leaving a trail of goosebumps on her arms. Finn lowered his head and used his tongue to trace the goosebumps from her wrist up her arm. His tongue was warm and wet, leaving her skin cold where he had been. Rachel moaned bucking her hips involuntarily into his, her fingers grasping at the back of his neck. Finn grinded back as she reached for his belt. There movements were frantic, their intentions obvious as they began to pry the clothes off the other. Finn pulled Rachel's shirt off over her head, his own head falling to her stomach, kissing and nibbling at every free inch of skin. Finn had always loved Rachel's body and time had been kind to her. She was a bit curvier but still had that tight, flat belly and legs that could get him hard just thinking about them. And god was he hard right now and they both knew it as he pressed his denim clad crotch into her center. Finn slipped his arms behind her back and unhooked her bra in one swift movement. Rachel remembered when she taught him how to undo her bra the first time and here he was, swiftly removing it one handed. His lips were on her breasts before he had even removed the bra all the way. His hot tongue ran against the cool skin on her breasts and the sensation made desire pool between her legs.
"Oh god Rachel, you are so fucking beautiful" his speech was mumbled by the skin of her chest.
Rachel felt the desire surge through her at his words. Finn didn't swear much under normal circumstances but he had a dirty mouth when intimate and it drove her fucking crazy. There was something about hearing the manly growl of his voice saying such dirty things that drove her to the edge. The way desire was think in his voice, he made her feel like the most beautiful women in the world, and to him she was. His lips continued to assault her breast as his hand caressed the other. His hips ground into hers as she moved her legs around his waist. The barrier of their jeans causing both to yearn for the other so much more.
"Finn" her voice was soft and airy, her sex voice.
Finn had not heard that voice in so long that it drove him crazy right there. If he had been 16 again he would have had to call on the mailman. But Finn's little problem had gone away with age and he was fully prepared to screw the crap out of Rachel tonight, hopefully more than once. He could not wait to show her how much better Finn Hudson the man was, because nothing in the world was better than fucking Rachel Berry.
"Rachel, you drive me fucking crazy" he growled.
She dug her fingers into his back trying to pull him closer to her. She had to feel him, all of him, her body was yearning for him. Rachel pulled his head up to her level and brushed her lips against his before pulling his head back to look into his eyes. She smiled at him with her genuine million dollar smile and moved her lips over to his ear
"Finn Husdon, if you don't fuck me soon I think I will die. I want to feel you inside me, I've missed you so much" she purred into his ear and that was all he needed to hear. He had their jeans off in record time and Rachel was pretty sure she had never seen Finn move so quickly in her life. He hooked his thumbs into the waist of her panties pulling them down her legs, his fingers leading a hot trail down her flesh. Finn grabbed her hips and pulled her ass towards him so her head was flat on the couch. His fingers gripped her thighs as he looked down at her dripping center. He ran a finger along her slick folds and she moaned loudly.
"Please Finn" she plead.
That was all Finn needed as he centered himself above her and pounded into her and almost lost it. She was so tight, so wet, so warm and he never wanted to this to end. She wrapped her legs around his waist, her fingers pulling his thick brown hair. Finn had forgotten Rachel was a hair puller and he groaned in approval.
"My god Rachel, I've missed you so much"
His lips found hers in a searing kiss that literally took her breath away. Her fingers ran down his arms, his biceps straining as he held himself off of her. She ran them back up to his hair tugging strongly.
"Fuck Finn" she moaned loudly as he fell into a steady rhythm, burying himself all the way inside her and then pulling almost all the way out.
Her hips met his everything thrust as she rotated her hips in a figure 8 below him. Rachel was amazing in bed, she always had been and being here with her again was driving Finn even wilder. He never imagined he would have found himself buried deep inside Rachel Berry again. She pushed his breasts up into his chest and pulled his head down, their lips meeting.
"Shit, Rach, you are so fucking tight" he groaned into her mouth
"and your so fucking hard" she responded.
He knew Rachel was getting close when her hand slid between their slick bodies and began to rub her clit frantically. It was something Rachel had always done and Finn could not even describe how hot is was to feel her little hand between them as he slid deep inside her. She began to buck into his hips erratically and Finn could feel her walls tighten around him, milking him for everything he had.
"Finn… harder, please god harder" she pleaded.
He had to slow his pace to keep from loosing it before her, his only goal in the world right now was making sure she got off. He wanted her to feel as fucking awesome as he did right now. He dipped his head to her ear, running this tongue along it as her fingers flicked at her clit and his cock pounded into her. He was completely enthralled in her right now, her smell, the feel of the sweat on her skin, the way her eyes fluttered shut and she bit down lightly on her lip as she drove into him.
"Cum for me baby" he whispered to her "Cum all over me. I want to feel it. God your pussy is so fucking wet."
Finn was struggling to hang on, he had not felt like this in years, well almost 11 to be exact. Finn had been with women since Rachel but none of them complemented his own body so well.
"Finn" was all Rachel could get out, his dirty fucking mouth drove her crazy and he knew it.
"Come on Rach" he encouraged as her body began to shake around him "Let it go, cum for me".
He could feel her walls tightening as her juices surrounded him. She let out a earth shattering moan as his name slipped from her lips over and over again. Her toes curled and her nails dug into his back, she was pretty sure she drew blood. That was all Finn needed to explode into her, holding her tight to his body. When they finally came down from their highs they just laid like that, Finn bracing his weight on the back of the couch, her small body rising and falling with each breath below him. Her hair was stuck to her face, her skin glistened with sweat and she had the most adorable smile on her swollen lips. Finn slid himself slowly from her even though it was the last thing he wanted to do and pulled her into his arms as he rolled to the side of the couch. She looked up at him, pushing his hair off his forehead and he felt so content.
"I love you Finn, I always have" she finally spoke as a shiver ran up her back.
Finn looked down at her and smiled "I know Rachel because I have never stopped loving you either."
Finn pulled the blanket over them and pulled her tiny naked frame against his. His chin rested on her head, his arms around her, their legs tangled together. Finn could feel sleep advancing on him but he didn't want to submit to it. He didn't want this night to end because he knew with the first light of the morning sun things might be different. He was firm in his feelings but he could only hope Rachel was as well. He looked down at her, the firelight reflecting off her slick skin, a smile on her lips and he was certain he had never been happier in his life.
