Rachel POV
"Turn it up I love this song!" I yelled at Kurt who was sitting passenger seat
There was something about driving my car with the volume up singing along to the radio that reminded me of the summer time. Although when I look out my window all I see is snow. I made the drive to Pucks cabin at least twice a year so it was a drive I was familiar with.
"Thank you Rach for forcing me to go this week" Kurt said smiling "This is really lifting my mood"
"Im so glad you're here kurt!" I grabbed his hand
"Why am I stuck back here?" Finn said from the backseat
Kurt and I both turned our heads and laughed at Finn alone in the back, he looked pitiful.
"Because Kurt is in pain and needs his best girl!" I laughed
"Yep! And also I'm a way better car D.J. than you Finn" Kurt winked at him
"I still don't even know why you're in 'pain' Kurt. When are you going to tell me? Your brother?" He looked at him
"He's nosey! Always wanting answer!" Kurt said nudging me
"OH trust me, I know" I squeezed his hand
"I'm right here?" Finn looked at us both
"We both love you Finn" Kurt gave him a sympathetic smile
"Well I know you love me Kurt; not so sure about my girlfriend though" Finn joked
"Let me ask her for you!" Kurt said clapping and then turned towards me "Hey Rach, do you love Finn?"
"Depends on the day" I winked
"Well what about today?" Finn asked
"Yeah" I turned my head around to the backseat and looked him up and down "You look sexy today"
"Okay gross this conversation isn't funny anymore" Kurt shook his head
"Oohh really?" Finn said unblucking his seatbelt and poking his head to the front of the car and kissing my neck
"Put on your seatbelt!" I yelled at him
"Yeah get out of here!" Kurt said pushing back
"Hey did you tell Kurt the news?" Finn said smiling from the back
"What news?" Kurt looked up
"Finn!" I yelled at him
"Oh yeah, we aren't supposed to tell.." Finn gritted his teeth
"Wow and you called me the loud mouth!" I shook my head
"I swear to god. Rachel is you are pregnant I will get out of this car!" Kurt yelled
"No! She is NOT pregnant!" Finn laughed
"Well then what is it?" Kurt poked me
"Kurt we really cant tell you! I'm sorry that Finn has a big mouth" I apologized
"Give me at least a hint!" He pleaded "Come on im sad!"
"Hmm… its something exciting happening this weekend!" I smiled
"That's a lame hint! Does it have to do with you guys?" Kurt asked
"Yes; it revolves around Finn and I" I quickly answered before Finn could, this white lie would throw him off base
"Finn I thought you weren't giving it to her?" Kurt turned around and looked at him
I was completely lost in the conversation. I thought we were talking about Quinn and Pucks engagement but then Kurt was having a whole different train of thought with Finn about giving me something? I looked in the mirror to see Finns face behind me; he gave Kurt a look that pretty much meant shut up.
"Wait now I'm confused?" I asked the two boys
"How much longer until we get there?" Finn asked totally changing the subject
He obviously didn't want me to know whatever him and Kurt we communicating about so I just brushed it off and ignored the comments.
"We're almost there! 10 minutes!" I smiled
We all jumped out of the car when we arrived to the house and stretched our legs; only two cars were in the driveway which meant we beat most of the glee kids there. The big house still looked the same as the summer, just a lot more snow and a lot less grass.
"Beat you to our room!" Finn said running in front of me
"No fair! You have long legs!" I ran behind him
We went straight to our room on the second floor and put our bags down.
"Can you believe this is our 3rd time at the lake house in 'our room' We were lucky to even claim this room last Christmas" I laughed
"Remember what happened here a year ago?" Finn smirked
"You remind me every time we come back" I leaned him back on the bed and crawled on top
He pushed the hair that was dangling down out of the way and reached his hand to my face "1 year of smooth sailing"
"Finn if I remember correctly we broke up like a few months after that trip" I laughed at him
"That was stupid and I wouldn't even call it a 'break up'" He rolled his eyes
"Well you cheated on me" I laughed
"God we were so stupid in high school; I'm so glad so much has changed in the past year" He said looking at me
"Just where I thought you two would be" Quinn said walking into the bedroom; I was still on top of Finn
"Hey Quinn" I said getting off the bed and hugging her "I haven't seen you in a bit"
"Come downstairs! People are showing up!" She said dragging us out of the room
This was the first time I had seen Quinn since I found out puck was proposing and I was trying so hard to keep the smile off my face, I knew that she had absolutely no idea.
"Hey guys!" Finn said walking into the living room filled with people
"What's up guys!" Everyone said greeting each other
"Whose ready to go crazy this weekend and PARTTY!" Santana shouted
"I brought some beers, Malibu and tequila!" Sam said from the back
"Did someone say tequila?" I opened my eyes wide
"Keep her away from the tequila!" Kurt said laughing, "Unless you want to see her dancing on the table"
"You know I wouldn't mind that" Finn chuckled
I walked into the kitchen where Puck was mixing up some drinks, everyone could still see us from the living room; but they were all distracted with catching up.
"So…" I said getting close to puck in the kitchen "When are you going to do it?"
"I don't know, maybe tomorrow? I need help figuring out how to do it" He whispered back to me
"Yeah totally, come to my room tonight and I can help you or something!" I nodded my head
"Thanks Rach; if it wasn't for you I probably would have proposed to her at a gas station or something lame" He laughed
"What are you guys whispering about?" Quinn said entering the kitchen.. I backed away from Puck and looked at her
"Planning a prank" I laughed; I couldn't read Q's face. She looked mad then again I would probably be mad if I was 8 months pregnant too…
"Mhmm" Quinn said looking at me
"Oh look at that, Kurt's calling me!" I quickly left the kitchen
"I wasn't calling you?" Kurt said as I approached him
"Kurt shut up" I said between my teeth
"You guys are all being so weird!" Kurt laughed
"Want to get your boots and go on a walk?" Finn asked me
"Sure" I said standing up, I walked to the front door and grabbed my boots and big coat
"I cant wait for some warm weather" Finn said kicking some slush on the ground
"Well we will be on a warm cruise in just 2 and half months!" I smiled
"I almost forgot about that!" Finn grabbed my hand "These streets have so many good memories"
"Oh you mean when we fell asleep at that park and had to run home at 5am before we got caught?" I laughed pointing at the small park
"Your dads were so mad at us" he laughed
"I miss all the sneaking around; it was fun" I reminisced
"60 years" Finn mumbled
"What?" I looked at him puzzled
"Puck is going to be with the same women for what? 60 years? If they live to 80 years old" Finn laughed
"You don't think he can do it?" I questioned
"That just sounds like a lot of time when you think about it to be with the same person…60 years" He looked dumbfounded
"Can you be with one person for 60 years?" I looked at him
"That's not what I meant" Finn laughed nervously
"Answer the question" I pretended to laugh back at him
"I think so.. I mean yes of course. Its just Puck hasn't been with someone for long" He replied
"He's been with Quinn for almost 2 years and hasn't strayed from her. I think things change when you find the person you truly love; you don't want to be unfaithful" I was thinking out loud
"I agree, but a lot of it has to do with how you grow with a person." Finn replied
"So much is going to change with us just within the next 5 years and I think we can either let it tear us apart or become stronger from it all" I squeezed his hand, both of us still continuing on our walk
"Could you imagine starting over and having to find love with someone else? I think I would work through any of our problems than have to remember another girls coffee order or favorite flower" Finn laughed
"You're a dork" I smiled "And you're right. What if my next boyfriend wasn't into football at all and I learned all that useless football terminology for nothing?"
"And I didn't memorize all the lyrics to Funny Girl to just cheat on you 30 years down the line" He kissed my cheek
"Well im glad we're both on the same page" I laughed
Finn and I walked further down the lake path before the sun started to go down and we decided to go home before it got to cold.
"It smells good!" I said walking into the lake house
"Where did you guys sneak off too?" Mercedes asked
"Just went for a walk around the lake" Finn answered
"Sure…a 'walk' is what you call it" Artie laughed
"No really…" I said laughing "Who made this? It smells so good!"
"I did…its got some spice Berry I don't know if you can handle it" Santana said stirring the soup pot
We all enjoyed the rest of the night watching movies, eating dinner and coming up with plans for the next day. I was beat and decided to go upstairs and get ready for bed. I stood in the bathroom brushing my teeth when Finn walked in.
"Do you need to shower?" He asked me
"No, go ahead" I smiled
"Are you sure you don't want to join?" He grabbed my waist from behind.
I spit my toothpaste into the sink and looked at him through the mirror "No, go ahead" I repeated myself
"Damn a year ago at this lake house you were practically begging for me to jump in the shower with you" Finn rolled his eyes
"Yeah that was a year ago, before we lived together. Now that kind of stuff isn't as special" I laughed
I shut the door to the bathroom and jumped on the fluffy bed, I scrolled through my phone and updated my instagram with cute photos from the trip so far. I heard a knock on my door and quietly whispered "Come in"
"Hey" Puck said coming into the room and then shutting the door
"Is Quinn asleep?" I asked him
"No, pregnancy insomnia. She will be up for hours. I told her that I was going to get water" He explained, "Anyway what do you think I should do?"
"Hmm… Do you want it to be an intimate moment or do you want to propose in front of all of us?" I asked him
"I think she probably just wants it to be us" He said sitting on the bed with me
"You're probably right. Maybe you could take her on the dock, bring some warm blankets, candles, hot drinks and sit on the side of the water." I told him
"What do I even say?" Puck asked confused
"Just tell her what you love about her, how you want to be by her side forever and how you guys are going to have such a great family…all that kind of stuff" I put my hand on his shoulder
Just then the door opened and we both saw Quinn standing in the doorframe looking at both of us. I quickly took my hand off his shoulder and backed up a little.
"Thought you were going to get water?" She questioned him
"Yeah I am" Puck fidgeted "Just had to ask Rachel something"
"Listen I don't know what's going on, but this is the second time today I have caught you two together talking." Quinn put her hands on her hips "I swear to god if you two are doing something…."
"Quinn!" Puck said to her "Rachel and I aren't 'doing' anything"
"Well it wouldn't be the first time at this lake house that you cheated on me with Rachel" Quinn rolled her eyes "And omg with Finn in that room showering! Sick!"
"Q" I said laughing "This is SO far form that you don't even understand"
"Than explain?" She looked at me
I didn't know what to say. I couldn't exactly tell her that Puck was asking advice on how to propose. I had to think fast on my feet; all the improv class needed to pay off in this moment.
"Well, I needed Pucks advice on something kind of personal" I explained
"Yeah..like what?" She questioned
I looked over to the bathroom door and blurted out "Finn hasn't been able to preform and I wanted to know if Puck had this problem to and if there wasn't anything I could do to help..you know"
I would have blisters on the side of my cheeks for biting them so hard. I was fighting back laugher and so was puck; the fact that this was the first thought that came to my mind was hilarious. If Finn was in the room he would throw a fit.
"Oh wow…im sorry I even bothered you guys" Quinn said walking towards the bed "It must be these baby hormones"
"Its okay we forgive you" I said hugging her
"Have you tried role play? I mean most guys like that…." Quinn said
"You know what I think Puck gave me all the advice I needed thanks though" I said holding back laugher
"Uhhh.. party in our room?" Finn said walking out of the bathroom with only a towel on
"We'll leave you two alone…." Puck said getting off the bed
Quinn walked up to Finn and patted him on the shoulder "Role play does wonders rach! Just try it!" She announced before leaving the room
"Wait..what just happened?" Finn looked at me confused
"Babe I honestly don't think you want to know" I laughed
"Try me" He sat on the bed
"I had to tell Quinn that you had a performance issue" I said giggling
"Dude what the hell? I do not.." He looked down at his towel
"I know I know… but she was accusing Puck of cheating on her with me. I had to think fast Finn, don't worry" I put my head on his shoulder
"You owe me" He said chuckling
"I'll pay you back right now" I smiled
He threw the towel on the ground and hit the light switch.
"So what was Quinn saying about role play?" He asked laughing
"I love you, punk" I wrapped my legs around his waist
