They lived with each other for days after Finn's arrival. They opened their heart and soul to one another, went on hikes, made love and basically lived in a Finchel bubble for those few days. But as well all know, all bubbles are meant to burst.

Rachel was sitting at the breakfast table waiting on Finn coming out of the shower when her cell phone rang. Picking up her cell she smiled. Louise is calling. Rachel had kept in touch with Louise as she couldn't be any more thankful for all her help when Finn was in hospital. Answering her call, she laughed when Louise said that Chelsea wanted to video call rather than speak to Rachel.

Chelsea had become a big fan of Rachel and loved talking to her when her schedule allowed her. Switching to video call, Louise appeared briefly and then Chelsea's smiling face appeared.

"Hi Rachel! How are you, is Mr Hudson with you? I miss him loads and just wish I could see him again!" said and excited Rachel.

Finn appeared with a smile. Rachel smiled at Chelsea.

"Hi Chelsea. I am fine thank you, finished for the season so I'm having some rest. As for Mr Hudson, yes, he is here. But he's in the shower now." Rachel said, obviously telling a small white lie.

"Oh okay. But I wanted to tell him that I got an A+ for music. I remembered everything he taught me, and I so rocked it at my exam." Chelsea said a little halfheartedly.

"That is fantastic news!" Finn's voice boomed and then he sat next to Rachel. Watching Chelsea's face light up on the screen was priceless.

"Mr Hudson! Oh, you guys were kidding me on and he was listening this whole time!" squealed Chelsea.

"Well I was in the bathroom but came out when I heard you talking Chelsea. I hope you and your mom are keeping well." Finn said softly.

"We are Mr Hudson. Shame I'm seeing you in two weeks. I'm scared to speak in front of all those people." Chelsea said with a fearful look in her eye.

Finn and Rachel looked at each other confused.

"Chelsea, move over love." Louise said.

"Hi Finn. Sorry, I seen your reaction to what Chelsea said. You've obviously not been informed that the trial starts in two weeks for your accident." Louise informed them.

"No, I didn't know. I didn't even know they had anyone for it. I've not had any correspondence that I am aware of. But then again, I've not returned to NYC at all for a while." Replied Finn.

They had some small talk before ending the video call and Finn stood up from his chair and paced slightly angry. Not knowing who was behind the accident was bad enough, but no correspondence infuriated him.

He went and got his cell phone and dialed Kurt's number. Finn explained to Kurt and Kurt said that he would go by his apartment to see if anything was delivered, or anything had been attempted to be delivered.

Rachel looked on at Finn worriedly. Finn noticed and gave her a small smile. Giving her a cuddle and reassuring her. On the inside, Finn was fighting to keep calm and composed but he was struggling.

"Finn, you can let it out babe. You do not have to keep it all inside." Rachel said with a concerned tone.

"I know, but until I know more from Kurt, I don't know how to react, not really." Said a down trodden Finn.

What seemed like forever and a day for Finn, wasn't that long as Kurt had dropped everything and made his way to Finn' apartment. He picked up the mail from the floor and looked at the mail he previously put on his sideboard. Nothing from his lawyers. Kurt burrowed his brow, going through the mail carefully but nothing was brought to his attention.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door making Kurt jump out of his skin. He went to the door and seen a gentleman in a suit before him. He asked if he was Finn, so Kurt had to explain that he wasn't, and that Finn was in L.A.

Finn jumped when his cell phone rang, and he answered it quickly as it was Kurt. After speaking with Kurt, nodding his head to he conversation, trying to get as much information out of Kurt as possible. Once the call ended he turned to Rachel.

"I need to get back to NYC as soon as possible. They tried to deliver my citation to court, but couldn't as they were instructed only I could sign for it, so Kurt said he would contact them to let them know when I was back in NYC. He couldn't get any information on the case as it was against confidentiality for them to talk to Kurt." Explained Finn.

"Well in that case babe, let's look at flights and get to New York as soon as possible." Said Rachel whilst flipping on her laptop.

Settled back in his apartment, Rachel had left Finn there whilst she popped out to the shops to pick up some groceries. He needed to stay behind as he anxiously waited on his citation appearing, so he knew when he was due to attend court.

On her return, Rachel put the groceries away and found Finn sitting on the edge of the bed looking at the citation that had arrived.

"Are you okay Finn?" Enquired Rachel.

"I'm not sure. I just can't get my head around this at all." Replied Finn.

Looking up at Rachel he handed her his citation. Rachel read over it and looked at Finn.

"So now you know who you will be facing in court, but do you know what they have been charged with at all?" Rachel asked softly.

Finn nodded his head. "Attempted Murder."

Rachel's eyes went wide.

"Seriously? I mean, I knew it was always serious, but Finn, that's" Rachel's voice trailed off. She didn't know what to say to Finn.

"Want to know what I can't get my head wrapped around." Asked Finn. Rachel nodded. "It's not the attempted murder charge, it's the name. I know who she is. I thought she was cool. But to attempt to kill me? I just need to know why."
