"I don't know what do Cor! Can't we just go back to the room already?"
He connects his eyes with hers, her whole face being illuminated by the bright lights of the casino slots. He can't help but admire her beauty in the light, but swallows quickly, stopping himself from getting excited at just the sight of her.
"We just got here babe! Come on, we can't come to Las Vegas and not play the slots at least once!"
She sighs, turning her head back toward the slot machine.
"So, I just pull the lever?" she says flatly, a hint of attitude in her tone.
"Yeah, and if you get all the same symbols, you win."
He rests his arm over her chair, leaning over to point out to her exactly what she should be pulling.
"Okay, seems easy enough." She says pulling the lever and seeing a series of different symbols appear on the screen in front of her.
"Did I win?" she says excitedly, her eyes widening at the sound of the machine making sounds and buzzing.
Cory laughs, he loves how she's so enthusiastic about everything. Another thing to add to the list of reasons why he fell in love with her.
"No, I'm sorry babe."
"Oh…" she frowns, pouting her lips.
He can't help but lean over and kiss her pouting lips. He's never seen something so adorable before in his life.
"Come on, let's go!" he says breaking the short, but sweet kiss and pulling her to her feet, "I have a surprise for you."
He watches a huge smile form on her face, her eyes sparkling. And not just from the bright lights that surrounded them this time.
"A surprise? Cory, you're so good to me." She wraps her arm around his waist as she feels his arm fly over her shoulder, guiding her out of the casino.
"Nothing less for Lea Michele Sarfati. She deserves everything good on this planet."
He stops and places a kiss on her blushing cheek before reaching into his pocket and fishing out two tickets.
"Look what I have!" he teases, waving the tickets in front of her face too fast for her to read the bold text printed on them.
She finally stops his hands from moving and takes one of the tickets out of his hand.
"Return to Vegas: Celine Dion… Cory! I thought you said the concert was sold out!" she gasps, clenching her fists and giggling in excitement.
He smiles, thinking how those tickets were worth every penny just to see her smile like that.
She flings herself at him, repeating the word "Thank-you" over and over again, squeezing the life out of him in their embrace.
She balances herself on her tippy toes and takes his mouth in hers, sweeping her tongue over his lips and poking at them, trying to gain entrance. He allows her in, reciprocating the kiss just as hard, wrestling his tongue with hers for a good number of seconds.
She breaks the kiss, looking around to make sure that no one saw their impromptu make out session in front of the entire casino.
"Let's go, we can't have you miss your date with Miss Celine Dion now, can we?"
She stops again after only taking a few steps.
"What?"
"Oh, didn't I mention that I arranged for us to go backstage after the show and meet Celine for a chat?"
She almost screams, but cups her mouth with her hand. She wants to jump up and down like a little girl, but she's fully aware that she's already drawn enough attention to herself in this very public place.
"Cory! You are crazy!" she gasps, clasping her hands with his and squeezing them tightly in her grip, "Thank-you so much! You really didn't have to do this you know?"
"I know. But I know how much you love her, it only seemed fitting for you to see her live." He wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her flush against his body, "Plus, why do you think I begged you to come with me?"
Her arms snake up his chest and around his neck as she caresses his hair with her slender fingers.
"You're my hero, you know that right?" she says, giggling.
She loved making references to their characters. It felt so good having some sort of parallel between their real relationship, and Finn and Rachel's relationship.
He chuckles at her comment. She totally knows what he's going to say next.
"You're mine."
He leans down and kisses her once more before they make their way to the coliseum theatre, where Celine's concert was just about to take place.
He hears her quietly admit that she loves him.
"I love you too gorgeous"
