So here is Chapter 20. This is following on from what happened last time. Hope everyone enjoys it and don't forget to review and give back some feedback.

Chapter 20: Mom Finds Out.

Carole's POV.

I come back in from my night out with Burt and feel fantastic. We went to the theatre to see a production Of Mice and Men which is one of my favourite books and loved how it was adapted into a play. Burt is really sweet and loving. I have had dates with people since Christopher died but never have been as special as with Burt. I think that since we are both widowed, we have that connection through our loss.

I decide to go upstairs and go to bed. Upstairs, I see that Finn's light is off. He said that he is going on a date with Rachel. Maybe he is coming in later. After all, he didn't tell me what time he expected to be home by but he said that they shouldn't be late. Maybe he got in before I did and locked the door and went to bed. It will be fine until the morning.

I get up the next morning; I hear that it is still so quiet. I know that this shouldn't be a problem, after all Finn usually sleeps in until about 10/11 in the morning on Saturday's anyway. All the schoolwork he says, it makes him tired. I go downstairs and look into the living room and I am shocked at the site that I see in front of me.

Finn is sleeping still in his clothes with Rachel firmly sleeping on his chest looking like she is still in her dress. So that is why it was so quiet last night? I am stunned that it would go this far so quickly. After all, how long ago was it that they were actually dating? Calm down Carole. You don't know all the details. It might be just a mistake. Finn isn't the type of boy that goes head first into a sexual relationship with a girl he has barely been with. You raised him better than that.

All that I will do is wait until they wake up and then I will talk to them about it. I make myself some breakfast and do some of the housework as I wait for Finn and Rachel to wake up and explain what happened.

Finn's POV.

As I hear the noise on the landing, I know that I'm in trouble. What happened that led to us sleeping on the couch? Thankfully, I know that we are fully dressed so it didn't get out of hand. I've already had one baby scare this year with Quinn, I don't want another one with Rachel.

I still playing with Rachel's beautiful brown hair and just watch her sleep. We have both been through the emotional rollercoaster, these past few weeks and months and now I wish that we can take a bit of a fresh start and try to calm ourselves down. I will let her rest as much as she wants as I just lay here with her. I could get used to this. Snap out of it Hudson. You shouldn't have these thoughts about her. You have only just gone on one date with her. You need to go slow with this relationship. Did you learn nothing from Quinn?

My thoughts are interrupted by a sound that I wish that I could hear for a very long time.

Rachel: "(Murmuring) Uh, where are I?"

Finn: "Morning baby. Seems like we ended up over here together."

Rachel: "(Realises where she is) Oh crap. What happened? We didn't do anything did we? (Begins to panic.)"

Finn: "Rachel, calm down. All we did was sleep. After Quinn, I wouldn't have taken that risk any time before I wanted to."

Rachel: "(Breathes a sigh of relief.) Thank God for that. But what if your Mom found out about this?"

Finn: "I think that she already has. Don't worry, I'll tell her the truth about what just happened. Nothing was wrong."

Rachel: "It just felt right, you know. (Realises what she has just said.)"

Finn: "What felt right?"

Rachel: "(Trying to play coy.) Nothing."

Finn: "I will find out Rachel. Don't you think you will get away with this. (Teasing her.)"

Rachel: "Really Hudson. You will have to try me first."

Is she flirting with me? Well two can play that game?

Finn: "What if I want too?"

Rachel: "Maybe later. (Teasing him.)"

We then share a passionate kiss and then we decide that we should talk this through with my Mom because she knew that Rachel stayed here last night without her knowledge.

Carole: "Do you two want to explain to me what happened last night?"

Rachel: "(Extremely worried.) Nothing happened, Mrs Hudson…"

Carole: "(Interrupts) Please call me Carole. But why were you two sleeping on the sofa?"

Finn: "(Nervous) Mom, we came home from our date and we were just watching a movie but we must have got tired because the next thing I knew it was about 8 this morning and Rachel was asleep on my chest. But seriously Mom, nothing happened."

Carole: "Okay. If you insist."

Finn: "Mom, after what happened with Quinn and her pregnancy scandal, I wasn't going to do anything rash or stupid straight away."

Carole: "Okay. I hope you are telling the truth. Rachel would you want anything to eat?"

Rachel: "If it is okay, can I have some cereal please?"

Carole: "Sure can."

We eat breakfast and then I decide to take Rachel back to her house. She says that she is going to be planning ideas for romance songs as it won't be long until Valentine's Day and so Mr Schue wants us to plan some songs for a competition that he wants us to compete in a mini-Glee competition. He hasn't told us the prize yet though. I have some work that I need to catch up on as well. Damm School.

Rachel: "Thank you for a wonderful evening last night. Sorry about this morning?"

Finn: "Don't worry. (Gives her a kiss which is returned.) I will see you on Monday."

Rachel: "I will. See you later Finn."

After she goes into her house, I head back home. I see that my Mom is not going to let this thing slip that easily.

Carole: "You have to be careful Finn. You said yourself that you escaped a pregnancy scare. You could well be fathering a child."

Finn: "But I am not Mom. It was scary and I know that you are equally as stressed and shocked about what happened this morning. But I repeat that nothing happened. We just watched a movie and then fell asleep due to how tired we were."

Carole: "Okay but remember to be careful if and when you decide to go further into your relationship."

Finn: "I know Mom and I will."

I go upstairs and just get on with my homework. I like to get my work done by Saturday afternoon then I can go and watch some sport or practise my music over the rest of the weekend. That is what I do today and then at around 7:30pm, I get an incoming call and I see who it is. It is Rachel.

Rachel's POV.

After Finn drops me home, I decide to do the remaining work that I have to do. Once I do that, I think about what songs I want to sing for the competition coming up but also songs for Regionals. That is coming up extremely fast now. Only less than four months. In four months, Glee could be over. After deciding on a couple of songs that I could sing with Finn, I decide to call him for his approval. After a ring, he picks up.

Rachel: "Hey baby. I have some ideas for songs that we could sing as a competition."

Finn: "Okay, what are they?"

Rachel: "Open Your Heart To Me as a full on romance. Don't Speak as a possible don't break up with me song. I Look To You as maybe someone as their last hope."

Finn: "I like Open Your Heart To Me. That would be a very romantic song for Valentine's Day and that will win us the competition in Glee."

Rachel: "Yeah I agree. Okay I'll see you on Monday baby."

Finn: "See you then Rach."

After I hang up the phone, I go and begin singing to keep myself in good condition. I head to bed around 10:30 and think about what happened this morning. How it felt special and how it left me wanting more of the same.

Strange thing is though I don't feel guilty about having these thoughts.

Aren't they sweet with each other. Next time, the Unholy Trinity return and Rachel gets an unexpected apology. Reviews and Feedback are welcome as normal.
