So here is Chapter 5. In this chapter, Finn meets Kurt and Rachel for the first time and learns that things have changed very drastically and for him not in the best way. Hope you enjoy.

Chapter 5: Heartbreak

Kurt's POV.

After I get off the phone to Puck, I go back and watch over Finn. I know, of all the people that would get the news about the extent of Finn's condition from me, it would be Puck. The same boy that tossed me in the dumpsters often back when we were freshmen and sophomores in school. Well, people change and he changed for the better. He is Finn's best pal after all and would know the best at how to handle the emotions and the extent of injuries from his time in the air force. It just made perfect sense for him to break the news to everyone about Finn's condition.

You would think that after seeing my Mom die, then my father twice suffer from first a heart attack then prostate cancer that I would be used to hospitals and seeing someone strapped to an oxygen mask and having a machine counting their heartbeat. But the thing is that my Mom had been suffering from breast cancer for a long time and so it was just inevitable that she would die and my father has survived but the stress of his work has led to constraints in his heart and prostate cancer is something that a large proportion of men suffer from. But Finn is only my age, still in his mid-twenties and yet he has to have a major surgery in order to save his life. The fact is that he doesn't know about it, makes the situation even more difficult to shallow.

I just ask the Doctor if I can just go outside for a little while. The Doctor agrees and I go on a walk outside in the parking lot and just try to get in my head, what has happened over the past day. Finn returning, him being taken to the hospital and then learning about his condition. I try to take my mind of him but it isn't easy knowing that he is in that room trying to fight for his life. There is a risk that he won't survive the surgery but that is unlikely. Though those around Finn will know that you should always expect the unlikely with Finn Hudson.

After ten minutes, I head back into the hospital and back into the room to see that Finn is screaming in his sleep. He is having a nightmare but is unable to get out of it. I wait outside whilst the Doctor tries to pull him out of his nightly terror and I am on my phone when I see that an article has appeared on CNN network.

Former Show Choir Champ In Car Accident Found Alive.

A member of the 2012 National Show Choir Champions New Directions who was reported to have been killed in a car accident 7 years ago found alive back at his former stomping ground of Mickingly High in Lima, Ohio. 26 year old Finn Hudson was initially considered to be dead when a car that he was driving was found lying on the side of a Michigan Speedway in May 2013. Then 18 years old, police considered the accident to have caused fatal injuries when they found the car in the state that it was found. Police found his driver's license in the car but no body was found in the vicinity of the car's final resting place.

(Shows a picture of the car damaged.)

He was officially registered as missing but was presumed dead by the police because of no further evidence. However, he was discovered at his old school yesterday as was taken to hospital for further testing. They found that through an extraction of DNA that it matched with previous records of the same man proving his identity. Tests show that Mr Hudson was tortured, sexually assaulted and beaten among other things. He was found to be held hostage in a prisoner but the location is unknown and could be anywhere. Vice President Sylvester who used to teach Mr Hudson has set up a team starting in Lima in order to track down the culprits and any associates.

If you have any discoveries on the matter, Vice President Sylvester is asking you to report any findings to Ohio State Police.

I shut down my phone because honestly, I can't read it anymore. The entire country knows about Finn's predicament and yet he doesn't even know about it himself. Someone must have tipped them off to the media because Sue really wants to help Finn but like everyone else wants time to process what has happened. The only two times, I have ever seen Sue Sylvester cry were when her sister Jean died and when we thought Finn had died. Santana told me that Sue had told her that when someone dies, there is no lesson just that the person is gone.

I am taken out of my thoughts by Finn murmuring. He is waking up.

Finn's POV.

I feel completely dizzy and dehydrated when I come around. I look up at the lights and I just see white. Is this it? Am I dead? Is this what the afterlife is like? I am snapped out of my thoughts when someone shakes my arm. So I am not dead after all.

Kurt: "Finn, Finn. You are waking up."

Finn: "Kurt? Kurt. You are here. Where am I? What happened? Where are my family?"

Kurt: "They went home for the night. (Looks at the Doctor.) Can I tell him what happened? (Takes off the oxygen mask because he is strong enough to breathe on his own.)"

Doctor Zheng: "You may."

Kurt: "You were in a surgery. Your lungs were damaged and so they had to give you a surgery in order to save it and save you. I stayed the night because someone could and I wanted to."

Finn: "Explains the bags under your eyes."

Kurt goes on to explain to me that I am also under half of the weight that I should be for my age and height. That I am possibly going to need a wheelchair for the rest of my life. I have broken ribs and that I might well have suffered a heart attack. He also explains that I will struggle to eat properly for a long time as well. Curse those people who had me in hostage. The thing is that they never told me what they wanted me for anyway. But then I look down at Kurt's hand and freeze.

Finn: "What's on your finger?"

Kurt: "(Realises what he means.) On God, how am I going to explain this?"

Finn: "You're married?"

Kurt: "Yes. Yes, I am."

Finn: "I guess Blaine is the lucky man isn't he?"

Kurt: "(Smiles) Of course. He was the one that proposed to me and then we got married in early 2015. It was a joint wedding with Brittany and Santana and it was incredibly special. But it still felt wrong. Because you weren't there."

Finn: "I know, man it sucks to know that I missed my brother's own wedding."

Kurt: "Don't feel guilty, you had no idea. I would have asked you to be my best man. I had Sam to do it instead."

Finn: "I would have accepted. Speaking of Sam, Brittany and Santana, can I meet the rest of the Glee Alumni?"

Kurt: "Yes. I will call them over now."

Kurt gives a call and then the rest of the New Directions comes in to meet me this afternoon. The Doctor gives me something to eat. He says that they are working out how much I can stomach before I feel sick. Man, I used to have a massive appetite and play sports at a very high level. My life is going to change in a very drastic way.

I hear that a major argument is brewing outside. Maybe it is between people to decide who is going in first. To be honest, I don't care who comes in first, I will want to see all of them eventually. It has been too long since I saw them.

Eventually it dies down and then the first person comes in and it is Rachel. The one person that I wanted to see more than anyone else.

Finn: "Rachel?"

Rachel: "Finn. (Gives him a hug.) You're alive."

Finn: "Yes I am. I've missed you Rach."

Rachel: "I've missed you too."

Finn: "I saw your speech. You finally got your Tony."

Rachel: "(Smiles.) Yes I did. It was a wonderful feeling. It was like all my dreams came true in that one moment."

All your dreams hey Rachel.

Rachel: "Though I forgot to include you in my acceptance speech. You were the one that put me on that train in the beginning that set the wheels in motion."

Finn: "(Chuckles at her pun.) Nice one Rach. I know that you would thank me for my role in person."

We talk about what she had done before that. She left NYADA and then got onto Funny Girl but resigned after getting in a funk and did a TV show that the pilot was so bad that they pulled it before it went on their main series. She came back and helped coach the New Directions for a while before going back and then being on Broadway ever since. I think that it might be time to right the wrongs of the past and get back together again.

Finn: "Rachel, I know that this is sudden but the feelings that I had for you before I was kidnapped are still here. I want for us to get back together again."

Rachel's POV.

Oh crap. He wants to get back together with me but I can't. I didn't wear my ring today but I need to come clean and tell him that I can't.

Rachel: "I, I…"

Finn: "Rachel?"

Rachel: "Finn. I can't. I need to tell you something. Please don't get angry but I'm married."

His reaction is worse than I feared. He looks mad, then angry then on the verge of tears. It looks like he might just have a breakdown from this one piece of news.

Finn: "It's not Brody is it?"

Rachel: "No, it is Jesse."

Finn: "Jesse St James?"

I nod.

Finn: "That is even worse. He egged you Rachel. How can you fall for him again? He's not into you like I am."

Rachel: "(Defending herself.) I thought you were dead Finn. I had to move on. He gave me that chance to live my dreams after you had gone."

Finn: "You gave up on me? Did I mean anything to you?"

Rachel: "You mean a lot to me Finn but you have to accept the fact that I'm a different person to when you saw me last. You helped me achieve my dreams now I will be here to help achieve yours."

Finn: "(Feeling his heart breaking.) But what if my only dream was you Rachel? I'm practically useless. I'm immobile, I have no degree, no college will ever accept me because of my age. I'm weak. I will probably never be able to work in a secure job. Heck, my body is probably that of a child. I'm just not good enough!"

Rachel: "You are much more than you think you are Finn…"

Finn: (Interrupts.) So you thought that when you ran out that night. Did you ever think about my feelings? No. You only thought about my dreams and about my feelings when they didn't conflict with yours. I want you to get out now."

Rachel: "Finn, I…"

Finn: "Just save it Rachel. It will be good for both of us."

I run out and see many concerned faces waiting outside. But I don't look at any of them, I just race to the nearest bathroom and cry. I feared that this day would come. All these years, I have taken the fact that Finn thought I was something special but now he has finally seen me. Just a selfish, heartless and manipulative young woman. He is just a broken young man. I broke him.

Finn's POV.

After Rachel leaves, I give myself a minute or two to calm down. Then the realisation of what I have learned. The love of my life is married to a different guy. I was on the verge of breaking point when I was trapped but Rachel was that one beacon of hope that I had. Now of all people, fucking Jesse St James has turned that light off. I am physically broken from my capture through torture. I am mentally broken because of the experiences and nightly horrors that I experienced. I am emotionally broken because of the sexual assault and the abuse that my body took. Yet once I escape, I am broken in another way.

Heartbroken because of my supposed death means that I will never get to spend the rest of my life with the woman that I love. Does somebody hate me so much that I can't enjoy happiness at all? I just feel that I should just die, maybe that is best for everyone including myself.

So a longer chapter today. Poor Finn, he clearly feels that the world is against him. Next time, the person or people behind his capture are revealed. Write your guesses and feedback in a review if you so wish. Thank you.
