Chapter 26
Finn was wondering where Rachel was. She had left to go to the bathroom twenty minutes ago, and he was beginning to wonder if she had run out on his when she came running down the aisle and practically jumped over people to get to her seat. He smiled at her.
"I was beginning to think you had left me." He said, but instead of replying, she kissed him. Wrapping her arms around his shoulders, she pulled herself closer. Thoughts of the movie disappeared as Finn wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her back. They stayed like that for a while, until someone behind them told them to 'get a room'. Rachel pulled away, blushing, but Finn kept his arms wrapped tightly around her.
"What did I do to deserve that?" he asked, raising his eyebrows.
"You love me. And I love you. If I refuse to fall in love because someone broke my heart once, I will never be happy. And I'd rather risk having a broken heart than spend my life alone and miserable."
"I'm not going to break your heart, Rachel. Because if I break your heart, I'll be breaking my own as well."
"Stop being cheesy and kiss me Finn." She smiled, and Finn happily obliged.
They watched the rest of the movie in silence, staring at th screen but not really taking it in. When it finished, they were among the first to leave. As she walked out, Rachel caught sight of two blonde heads in the back row, but she couldn't be sure if it was Sam and Quinn since they were making out, but she thought she recognised Quinn's purple top.
Shaking her head, she followed Finn out of the theatre.
"You want me to give you a lift home?" he asked her, and she smiled and nodded.
"Hang on, I have to text Quinn to tell her to take my car." Rachel dug her phone out of her purse, but there was no need, since at that moment Sam and Quinn emerged from the theatre, hands intertwined. Their clothes and hair were a little messed up, and Sam's lips were a little glossy, but other than that, you couldn't tell what they'd been up to.
"Hey guys. Look, Finn's giving me a lift home, do you two want to take my car?"
"Do we really have a choice?"
"Nope."
"Then sure, that's fine with me."
"Great." Rachel got her keys out of her bag and threw them to Quinn, who proceeded to grab Sam's hand and drag him towards Rachel's car.
Smiling at each other, Finn and Rachel walked, hand in hand, to Finn's truck, which was parked right at the back of the lot. Rachel didn't mind, though. It wasn't cold, and it just meant she could walk with Finn for longer. She sighed, disappointed, when he had to let go so they could get in the car.
"So, erm… do you need directions?" she asked nervously.
"No. I've dropped you off before, remember?"
"Yeah, but I didn't think you would remember…"
"I'll never forget where you live."
"Okay, to some girls, that would sound kinda freaky."
"But not to you, right?" he asked hopefully. She laughed.
"Right."
They drove the rest of the way in silence, and when Finn finally pulled up outside her house, he followed her up to the front door.
"You don't have to walk me to my door, Finn."
"I know. I wanted to. It means more time together."
"Aw, Finn, you're so cheesy, but so sweet!"
"I know."
"Hang on, let me get my keys-shit!" she gasped, dropping her bag.
"What? Did you hurt yourself?" he asked, concerned.
"No. Quinn has my keys. Remember, I gave her them to drive home. I completely forgot to get my house key!"
"Oh. Well, don't you have a spare under the mat or in the plant pot or something?" he asked.
"Finn? Do you see a mat or a plant pot?" looking around, Finn realised that the small porch had no mat, or plant pot, or anything where a spare key could be hidden.
"So, what, no spare key?"
"Nope." She sighed, leaning against the wall and trying to fight back tears.
"Well, then, I guess you'll have to spend the night at my house." She looked at him wide-eyed, and he backtracked.
"I mean, just to sleep. Nothing more. You can stay on the couch if it makes you more comfortable. If you want. No pressure, of course, I just didn't want you to spend the night in your garden."
"Thanks Finn. I mean it, you rock. Come on, let's go. I'm freezing."
Please review! :D
