So this is Chapter 5. I hope you enjoy this chapter. This is where Finn and Rachel will admit their feelings for each other. On those who want to know where this story will go post-Sectionals, I will skip a couple of episodes because I feel they wouldn't be good for this plot. When we get there, I will explain what has happened in the meantime and what I have taken out of the story. I have already written as far as Chapter 8 in case I get writer's block then I have a couple of chapters already written. Enjoy.

Chapter 5: You are the One.

Finn's POV

I get up and get ready for the day ahead. I take a shower and pack my bag with my books that I need today that I didn't leave in my locker. I put on my red Letterman Jacket and come down to have some breakfast. I wasn't particularly hungry so I just had some toast. Then my mom comes down and has a look of something which says that she thinks something is up. I don't know what to say in this situation.

Carole: "Hey honey, something wrong? I heard you were on the phone for a long time last night when I got in."

Finn: "Um. Yeah there is. Will you just listen and I'll try to explain." Thankfully I got up early so I have 30 minutes to explain before I need to get to school.

Carole: "Ok."

Finn: "Well, yesterday during rehearsals, people in the Glee club seemed to be put off by something about Quinn. She fell over in rehearsal on Monday and seemed to be talking with Puckerman. We decided our set list for Sectionals and then I left with Rachel."

Carole: "The so called diva you went bowling with?"

Finn: "Yes, but she had found out about a secret about Quinn which she had heard from different conversions. And she decided to come out and tell me right away."

Carole: "And that was?"

Finn: "(Deep sigh) I'm not the father of Quinn's baby, Puck is."

Carole: "What? How? Why would she lie to you? She isn't welcome here again. Finn, she tried to destroy your life."

Finn: "Well, it turns out that Puck and Quinn got drunk on wine coolers and slept together about a week after I made out with her in her hot-tub. I guess she didn't want to be knocked down from her position at school by being with me which is stupid as I don't know what I want to do with my life at the moment anyway. But there is more."

Carole: "What else is there?"

Finn: "It turns out that all of the others in Glee knew the truth before me. Mercedes and Kurt have known for up to 3 weeks whereas the others have known for 10 days when Rachel and I were rehearsing a number. But then I stormed out and Rachel was accused of being a home wreaker and a backstabber among other things. But it has led to a split in the Glee Club."

Carole: "In what sense?"

Finn: "Well, Kurt, Mercedes and Santana are behind Quinn and Puck and have practically distanced themselves from Rachel whereas Artie, Tina and Mike are behind myself and Rachel. Brittany didn't know of the situation and it was a shock to her and Matt hasn't been in the last few days with the flu so the club has divided. But I am struggling to trust them Mom."

Carole: "I understand completely. Quinn should have come clean at first and I can't defend her actions but was it Rachel you were on the phone to?"

Finn: "Yeah. She told the others before they revealed how long they knew about the situation was that she wasn't afraid to tell the truth before some of the group attacked her verbally. She said that Tina texted her support because of the respect for saying what they couldn't but I need to get to school now so I can sort myself before class."

Carole: "You do that son."

I head upstairs and brush my teeth before going to school. I get there about 15 minutes before I am due to go to class. Okay perfect time for me to sort things out. First lesson is history so I need to go to my locker to get my textbook. But then I see Rachel. Maybe now is the moment to tell her about my feelings. Oh, crap she is coming right up to talk to me.

Rachel's POV.

My alarm wakes me up and 6am as usual as I hear the chirping sound of birds outside my window. After 10 minutes on the cross-trainer, I go down and get ready for the day. My dads are on a business trip again. It seems that every other week they are going away. It gets to the stage where I wonder whether or not they love me or not as they are so often not here. But I need a plan for today.

I have a shower and get dressed for school. I have my locker filled out with my books and some are in my bag which I am bringing today because it is a busy day. Since we are in Sectionals tomorrow, we have to catch up with our work today before we compete tomorrow afternoon in our competition. I have some cereal and then head out to school. I like to be there early because there is nothing to do here in the morning before school. I might head to the choir room to sing before school, get some more ideas for the rest of the year. There isn't enough time to get ahead with my work before school but I do have a couple of free periods today so I can get ahead with my work then.

I get to school around 20 minutes before school is due to start for first class. I start today with history so I need to get out my textbook out from my locker when I hear my cell phone going off. I get it out and it is from Tina.

Tina: 'Hey Berry, everything fine?'

Rachel: 'About as good as it can get after yesterday.'

Tina: 'I know. Does Finn know what happened after he stormed out of Glee yesterday?'

Rachel: 'Yes. He feels that the trust between the rest of the club and him might be unsalvageable but he is going to try and forget about it until after tomorrow. Part of me feels that it might be difficult for him to recover after the whole emotional rollercoaster of the last 24 hours.'

Tina: 'Agreed. Well I have to get to my locker, I have English first. I have a free after that though.'

Rachel: I have a free second period too. Maybe we can get some of our work done then. See ya Tina.'

Tina: 'See ya Rachel.'

I then go over to my locker and grab my textbook and then begin to head to class. With all the stress about Glee and Sectionals and Baby-Gate all within the last day, let's just hope that today is a much calmer day than yesterday. That is when I see Finn looking at me. I decide to go over and talk to him.

Rachel: "Hey Finn. Are you ok?"

Finn: "Hey Rachel. Yes I am better than I was yesterday. I think talking to you yesterday over the phone made me calm down. I talked with my mom this morning and she knows the situation and thinks that we were right in what we did yesterday."

Rachel: "That is good. Do you want to go to class early?"

Finn: "Yeah, just before we go. Can I just ask you something Rachel?"

What does he want to know or ask me?

Rachel: "Go on."

Finn: "I try my best to explain this, the best I can. I was thinking about the situation over the past few weeks and how you have helped me through it. I have felt that Quinn might be lying to me but no-one told me so I believed it was the truth that I was due to become a father but now I know that I am not. It may be too soon but I think it is best for me to ask you now. I can't keep this any longer. Rachel Berry, I have feelings for you. Will you go out with me?"

Is this some sort of dream? Finn Hudson, the star quarterback wants to go out with me? Why me? But I know my answer.

Rachel: "Yes Finn, I will. I love you so much. It broke my heart to see you with Quinn and I know how much you deserve someone who will be honest with you. (Stands on her tip-toes to give him a passionate kiss on the lips.)"

Finn: "(Returns the kiss) I know that it might seem that I'm throwing my heart into a new relationship too early but I know I love you and don't want to waste this chance with you."

Rachel: "(Smiles), I know, let's get to class."

Finn nods and we begin to head to class. I see that he has a brush of my lipstick on his lips. Oh well. On our way, we see Quinn on her own, looking miserable and upset. Well, that is her own fault for getting herself pregnant and then lying about the baby's daddy. Now she has nothing and I have everything. Funny how quickly change. We sit down and I know one thing that will not change.

My trust in and my love for Finn.
