Finn sped to the hospital as fast as he could, almost crashing four other cars and running two red lights. Finn sloppily parked the car in the parking lot and quickly ran in the hospital and to the room Rachel's dads told him.
"Sir!" The lady at the receptionist desk yelled making Finn stop and look at her annoyed.
"What."
"Only family and friends can go back there."
"You've got to be fucking kidding me." Finn said as he ran his fingers through his hair.
"Finn!"
Finn lifted his head,"I've never been so happy to see you."
LeRoy smiled,"He's with me." LeRoy reassured the receptionist before taking Finn's wrist and running to Rachel's room.
"We found her a few hours ago. The doctors think it was a suicide attempt since you guys broke up and she didn't take it very well."
Finn sighed and sat down feeling a little dizzy,"I should have called her back or texted her."
"Finn this is not your fault. I don't want to hear you saying it was." LeRoy said firmly,"We called you here because the doctors say that things aren't looking too good for Rachel. She's breathing and everything, but they are saying from what they are seeing, she isn't actually trying to wake up. We think you should talk to her. Make her feel your presence or something. You're the only one we know that she'll want to live for."
Finn stared at Rachel band nodded,"A-alright."
"I'll give you sometime." LeRoy squeezed his shoulder before walking out.
Finn stared at Rachel from the other side of the room before walking over to her slowly and taking her hand in his. Finn stared at her face for a minute before sighing and pulling up a chair next to the bed.
"I don't know why I'm doing this, or if it will even work. But...Um.." Finn sighed,"I feel stupid." Finn ran his fingers through his hair,"I'll just sing."
Finn took a deep breath before singing her the song he sung to her on their first date.
By the time he was finished singing he was crying. He rested his head on her abdomen and kept it there until he fell asleep.
Two hours later Finn woke up and looked around to see where he was. Finn looked down at his watch and he groaned when he noticed that it was ten o'clock.
Finn rubbed his eyes and stood up. He leaned down and kissed Rachel's cheek,"Stay in there for me baby." He whispered in her ear before walking out the door.
Finn closed the door behind him and leaned his back against it. He slid to the ground and sat their an cried. Cried for his broken relationship, cried for Rachel...he cried for everything that has been going wrong in his life for the past month.
Thirty minutes later he stood up and and started walking out of the building until he spotted Rachel's dads sitting in the waiting room sleeping. He walked over to them and shook them a little.
"Is she okay!" LeRoy started saying as soon as he woke up.
"Is she awake!?" Hiram said.
"Calm down. Calm down. It's just me, Finn. Rachel is not awake, yet. I was just coming over to tell you that you can go in the room to get more comfortable now. Also, do you guys want some food?"
"That's very generous of you, Finn. But, we are fine. You need to get home and go to sleep for school in the morning.
"Tomorrow's Saturday, Mr. Berry."
"Shit! We have an important flight to get tomorrow morning. Remember LeRoy?"
"We have to cancel it. I can't leave Rachel alone."
LeRoy and Hiram kept going back and forth until Finn spoke up,"I'll look after her for you, until you get back. I can call everyday to give you an update on how she's doing. I'll even stay at the hospital with her."
"Finn you don't have to do that for us."
"I know." Finn said with a nod,"I want to."
LeRoy and Hiram exchanged looks before looking back up at Finn,"You still love her, don't you, son?"
"I never stopped sir." Finn admitted.
"She told me why you guys broke up, Finn. We will understand if you don't-"
"I can never stop loving Rachel, sir. Trust me, when we first broke up I tried for two weeks to stop loving her, but I just couldn't. I thought about her everyday. I can't help, but feel like this is my fault because I promised her that if we ever broke up I'd still help her with her addiction, but instead I ignored her for one month. And now she's...she's in there fighting for her life."
"Finn, this is not your fault. All of us thought she was done with-"
"I knew she wasn't. She'd call me at least once almost every week crying because she thought she was about to go crazy and she needed me. That's why Rachel and I are together all the time. Everybody thought that we were just together because we were in love, yeah, that was part of the reason, but, another reason is because I was terrified that she would do something horribly stupid if I wasn't around to stop her."
"Why didn't you tell us this son?"
"She begged me not to. I was going to tell you anyways, but she actually seemed to be doing better. Before we broke up she went three weeks without calling me, but then we broke up...and...oh God...what if one of those times she was calling me because...she was...this is all my fault. I should have answered her God damn calls!" Finn said as he punched a wall.
"Finn!" LeRoy said sternly and stood up this is not your fault. Hiram and I as her parents should have noticed something was going on with her. For this whole month she would stay in her room for hours and when she wasn't in her room her eyes looked blood shot. Every time we'd ask her if something was wrong she'd tell at us saying that nothing was wrong with her then stoop back in her room and stay there for three hours before coming out crying and telling us sorry. We thought she was heart broken because of you guys' break up, but it seemed like much more than that."
Finn sighed and sat down,"I still should have told you guys what was going on with her and I'm sorry for that."
"It's okay, Finn. We understand why you didn't. But, next time Rachel tells you to keep something from us. Tell us, okay?"
"Yes sir." Finn said then yawned.
"How about you get home and get some rest? I'm sure Carol is wondering where you are too."
"I was in such a rush to get here I dropped my phone. I'll be back first thing in the morning." Finn said as he rushed out of the hospital.
Thirty minutes later Finn walked in the house and was surprised to see that it was dark inside. When he walked in his room though he was immediately attacked by Kurt and Santana.
"Where the hell were you!?"
"Why are you getting home so late?"
"Are you hurt?"
"Guys! I was at the hospital-"
"The hospital!?" They both said.
"Why the fuck were you at the hospital!?" Santana said as she inspected him for injuries.
"I'm fine! Let me finish. I was at the hospital to see Rachel."
Santana and Kurt looked at him confused,"Why couldn't you guys meet at her house or something?"
Finn sighed, they could be so stupid sometimes,"Rachel is in the hospital."
"That's good fo-"
"Santana if you finish that sentence I will seriously kill you." Finn warned. Santana, feeling a little intimidated, stepped back a little,"She's in the hospital because she had an overdose." Santana and Kurt stared at him in absolute shock.
Finn cleared his throat and continued talking,"Her dads told me that it was probably a suicide attempt because of our break up. She overdosed and now she won't wake up...their saying that it's looking like she isn't trying to wake up."
Kurt shook his head,"Rachel wouldn't do something like that."
"I know she wouldn't. Which is why I don't believe she was trying to overdose and kill herself."
Santana brought Finn into a hug, knowing exactly why overdoses was a sensitive subject or him,"I'm so sorry Finn."
"It's fine. But, this whole weekend I'll be staying with Rachel in the hospital since her dads have a meeting that they apparently can't cancel."
Kurt nodded,"Okay, do you want us to tell mom or...?"
"Yeah, since I'm leaving early in the morning I won't be able to tell her what happened."
"Okay, well, I'm going to sleep. Night guys." Kurt said with a yawn.
"Night Kurt."
Santana let go of Finn and walked over to his bed,"I'm sorry for what I was about to say."
Finn shrugged,"It's alright. You didn't know what actually happened."
Santana nodded,"Well, I don't know about you. But, I'm tired." Santana said as she got under the covers.
"You go to sleep. I'm going to take a shower and pack a bag."
"Alright. Goodnight Frankenteen."
"Goodnight Satan." Finn said with a chuckle.
At six o'clock in the morning Finn woke up and immediately grabbed his duffle bag and went to the hospital, stopping at smoothie king on the way.
When he go to the hospital he went to Rachel's room just as her dads were about to walk out.
"Good Morning, Finn. We were just on our way to the airport."
"Okay, how-how is she doing?"
"She's looking a little better. Whatever you told her yesterday may have worked a little. Keep doing what your doing."
Rachel's dads walked out of the room leaving Finn alone with Rachel. After a while Finn dropped his bag in a corner and sat on the edge of the bed. Finn looked over at her and tried not to wince at how pale she looked, but she also looked as beautiful as ever.
Finn put his hand on her cheek and stroked it,"I'm sorry." He whispered, "I'm so fucking sorry."
Finn sat there for about five more minutes before pulling up a chair next to her bed laying his head on her abdomen like he did last night.
He laid there for about thirty minutes before drifting off to sleep.
It was ten o'clock when he woke up. He turned his face so that his face was buried in her abdomen more. He breathed in her scent and smiled when he noticed she smelled like berries. He always thought it was ironic how she always smelled like berries. He laid there for about ten more minutes before noticing that Rachel hand had somehow got tangled in his hair.
He slowly sat up, but didn't look at Rachel's eyes. After about two minutes of staring at...nothing, his eyes traveled up her body and to her eyes.
They were open. And she was smiling tiredly at him.
"You're up? I'm not dreaming am I?"
"I hope not. I've been up for like two hours waiting for you to wake up. I hope this isn't just a dream."
"Why didn't you wake me?"
"I liked having you close to me. I didn't want it to end."
There was an awkward silence, "Well, um, I'm going to get the doctor." Finn said as he wiped his hands on his pants nervously.
"He already came. He told me that he has to talk to my dads before I can leave. Where are they anyways?"
"They went on a business trip this morning. They'll be back tomorrow night. I-I offered to watch you until they came back."
"Really? You offered to do that."
"Yeah-um I'm just going to call your dads and tell them you're awake." Finn said as he quickly grabbed his phone and walked outside of the room to call her dads.
After he finished calling her dads he walked back into the room and took a deep breath,"We need to talk Rachel."
Rachel looked over at him nervously, "About what?"
Finn looked at her incredulously,"Did you just say about what?"
"Wrong choice of words. I meant what did you want to talk about first?"
Finn sighed,"Why'd you do it Rachel? And don't tell me it was a suicide attempt because I refuse to believe that."
"No! It wasn't. I had started again because I didn't know how else to cope with it and it got to the point where I started doing it so much that I overdosed. I didn't mean for it to happen, but, I didn't want to deal with the pain. Even though I didn't purposefully overdose I don't think I exactly wanted to wake up, but then I guess something in me told me that I had to wake up so, here I am."
Finn shook his head,"Rachel, there are other ways to deal with pain. You-"
"Why do you care so much Finn! We are broken up and if I remember correctly you broke up with me!"
"You want to know the real reason why I care so much?"
"Yes!"
"Because my dad died from an overdose. I care so much because I don't want you going through the same things my dad went through, Rachel. My mom always tells me he went through absolute hell trying to stop doing drugs, but one day the temptation go too much to bare and he ended up dying. Now you know why I'm so worried about you, Rachel. Because I don't want another person that I love die over this shit. You happy now?"
Rachel looked at him speechless, "Finn...I'm sorry...I didn't...I'm sorry. I feel like the biggest bitch in the world right now."
Finn stood up abruptly,"I'm hungry. Do you want something?"
"You don't-"
"Rachel, you haven't eaten in two days. You need to eat. I'm getting you something weather you like it or not. You need to stay healthy. I know I don't need to do anything for you, I want to."
"Always looking out for me." Rachel whispered with a smile.
"I'll be back. I'll go pick up your usual from iHop?"
"That would be amazing, thank you."
Finn nodded,"No problem." He walked towards the door before turning back to Rachel and smiling a little,"I'm glad you're awake."
Rachel smiled back at him and nodded,"I'm glad too."Finn nodded once before walking out of the door and heading to iHop.
"Hey, Rach. I'm back." Finn looked over at Rachel and laughed when he saw her sleeping.
Finn sat the food on the table, "Rach, your food is here. Come on, wake up. Come on sleeping beauty." Finn shook her for a second before she stared groaning and sitting up.
"Hmmm?"
Finn laughed,"Your food is here."Finn pointed to the food he had laid out on the table for her.
Rachel smiled at him thankfully, "Thank you, I was starving."
"I know you were." Finn said as he reached out to help her sit up all the way,"Are you comfortable?"
"I'm as comfortable as I can get in a hospital bed." Rachel sighed.
Finn put another pillow behind her to support her back,"You don't look comfortable at all."
"I'm fine, Finn." Rachel put her hand on his forearm to stop him,"Stop worrying about me for a second and eat. You're starving."
Finn nodded and sat down in his chair. After watching Rachel struggle with eating with just her left hand, since she couldn't use her right hand, for about fifteen minutes Finn laughed and sat on the edge of the bed next to her. He took the fork out of her hands and took the knife sitting down next to her and started cutting her fruit and pancakes.
Finn poured some syrup on the pancakes, then started feeding her. Rachel smiled at him gratefully, "Thank you." She whispered.
"There you go with saying thank you a lot, again." Finn said with a smirk.
Rachel laugh,"You are always doing these nice thing for me even when I don't deserve it. I just want you to realize how thankful I am."
Finn smiled and nodded,"Okay, but no more saying thank you."
Rachel laughed,"I'll try not to." Finn smirked and put another piece in her mouth.
As he was putting it in her mouth he caught Rachel's gaze. And like every other time he couldn't look away. Every time he looked into her big chocolate eyes he saw this sparkle in her eyes that only appeared when she looked at him. He saw her eyes flicker down to his lips before slowly traveling up his face and back into his eyes.
She bit her lip a bit a she continued staring at him. She scooted closer to him and put her hand on his cheek and started leaning in to kiss him. Just before their lips touched Finn turned his head making her press her lips to his jaw instead.
"Do you um- do you want some fruit?"
"Finn..."
"I have to use th-"
"Finn! We need to talk about our break up." Rachel took his hand,"I still love you, Finn. Tell me you don't love me."Rachel moved closer to him and rested her forehead on his,"Tell me you don't love me and I'll back out of your life."
"I can't do that, Rachel. You know I love you. I never stopped and I don't think I ever will stop."
"Then what is keeping us apart, Finn?"
"I don't trust you, Rachel. You lied to me, Rachel and to top it off you cheated on me."
"I'm sorry, Finn." Rachel sobbed,"I let my insecurities get the best of me."
"You're insecurities?"
"Yes! Quinn is so much prettier than me and I-"
"We went through this before we started dating, Rachel. You are the most beautiful girl I have ever met. I'm not just saying that, Rachel, you are gorgeous and I hate that you can't see that. Even if you don't believe that you're gorgeous you know that I love you and nobody else, I will never ever love somebody as much as I love you, Rachel. That should be enough for you to know that you are it for me, Rach."
"I know, and I'm sorry." Rachel put her hands on his cheeks and kept their foreheads together,"Let me make it up to you, baby. Give me another chance."
"I can't date someone I don't trust, Rach." Finn whispered as he too put his hands on her cheeks.
"Then let me try and gain your trust, Finn. I love you too much. Remember when we first started dating I said-"
"'I don't give up easily.'" Finn said with a smile.
Rachel smiled back at him,"Yep. So, I am never giving up on you Finn. I love you and I'm not giving up until I get my second chance. Everybody deserves a second chance, right?"
Finn nodded,"Yeah, everybody does deserve a second chance."
Rachel smiled brightly at him,"Does this mean we're dating again?"
"No." Finn said making Rachel's smile fall off her face and she look down. Finn put his index finger under her chin and lifted her head,"I need to trust you again, Rach. So, how about we start off fresh? As friends?" Finn said with a smile showing off his dimples.
Rachel bit her lip to refrain from biting his dimple like she used to and nodded,"As long as you'll give me another chance."
Finn nodded and held out his hand, "Do we have a deal Ms. Berry?" He said with a charming smile.
"Before I shake your hand agreeing to start fresh with you I need to do one more thing..." Before he could question her Rachel already had her arms wrapped around his neck and her lips on his. She forced her tongue in his mouth and nearly devoured his mouth whole.
When she pulled away Finn still had his eyes closed and his mouth open a bit. Rachel wiped his lips and smiled,"You alright, Finn?"
Finn nodded slowly and opened his eyes,"I'm fine."
Rachel chuckled and stuck out her hand,"You ready to make that deal now?"
"Uhh...yeah."
"You sure? There isn't anything you want to do? Like, I don't know? Make out for a while...have sex...?"
Finn chuckled and shook her hand,"Friends."
Rachel sighed,"Friends. The last time we were friends you ended up asking me out not even two hours later."
"It's different this time."
"How?"
"I don't know. You're asking too many questions."
Rachel laughed,"Finish feeding me." Rachel scooted over on the bed and patted the spot next to her,"Sit next to me."
"Friends don't sit that close together, Rach."
"If I was Santana you'd sit next to me."
"Yeah, because Santana and I are just friends. I'm not in love with Santana and I know how to control myself around her."
Rachel smiled,"I won't try anything. I promise."
Finn looked at her skeptically before kicking his shoes off and slowly sat next to her. Rachel smiled at him and laid her head on his chest.
"Your pancakes are better than this." Rachel said after another bite.
"I know."
Rachel looked up at Finn and smirked,"You just think you're better than everybody don't you."
"No, I know I'm better than everybody." Finn said with a smirk and took one of her fruits.
"Aren't you cocky."
"I'm not being cocky if I'm stating facts, Rach."
"Yeah, okay. Finish feeding me."
Finn chuckled and fed her a fruit. He didn't miss the way she sucked on his finger while she was taking the fruit out of his hand.
"I know what you're doing, Rachel." Finn said as he started eating his food.
"What? Flirting? Yeah, the point of me flirting is for you to know that I am flirting, Finn." Rachel said with a giggle.
"I don't think friends flirt with each other."
"Okay, uno, you and Santana flirt all the time, dos, if I am interested in someone I will flirt, and you should know that I am very interested in someone in particular."
"Who do I have to beat up?" Finn joked,"Do I know him?"
"I don't know. He's tall, he is a brunette, he has dimples that make me so wet, his smile is to die for, his eyes are cinnamon, he has very impressive abs, he has the cutest butt, his fingers are really skillful, his mouth is...wow-"
"Okay, okay. I get it, this dude is intimidating."
Rachel laughed,"Do you know him?"
"I might have an idea."
They continued flirting with each other, mostly Rachel flirting with Finn, until the doctor walked into the room."
"Hello I'm Dr. Wilson, Rachel's doctor." The doctor held out his hand to Finn.
Finn smiled politely and put his hand in his,"I'm Finn."
"I figure you're her boyfriend?"
"No, I'm just a friend."
"Hmm...I know how it feels to be friend zoned."
"Actually I'm the one in the friend zone." Rachel mumbled.
"Never seen the girl the one in the friend zone before." The doctor said with a laugh,"Anyways, Rachel, did you find out where your dads are?"
"They went on a business trip this morning, they should be back tomorrow night. Right Finn?"
"Oh, when I called them they said they are going to try to get and earlier flight which will most likely be sometime tomorrow morning."
The doctor nodded, "Is it okay if you stay here until tomorrow morning?"
"Will you stay here with me Finn?"
"Yeah, I promised your dads I would stay with you until they got back."
"I'll be fine to stay until tomorrow then." Rachel said with a smile.
"Okay, I'm going to take this tune out of your hand since you don't need it anymore." The doctor took the tube out of her hand and she sighed in relief.
"My hand feels so much better now." Rachel said as she bent her fingers.
Dr. Wilson smiled,"We'll talk tomorrow morning."
Rachel nodded,"Okay." With that the doctor walked out of the room.
Finn got off of the bed and sat back in his chair. Rachel pouted,"Why'd you move?"
"I don't need to feed you anymore. You can move your hand now."
"But it still hurts." Rachel whined.
"I guess you'll just have to man up...or...woman up?"
"I don't like being your friend." Rachel mumbled.
Finn laughed,"Either you want me or you don't, baby."
"Oh I want you alright. More than you know."
Finn laughed,"Are you new to this just friends thing or...?"
"With you yes. Last time we decided to be friends I had you on your knees begging me to date you."
"Oh I was begging you to date me? If I remember correctly you and your dads were begging me to date you. I just asked you out because I felt bad."
"Oh really? Maybe I should date Sam then."
The smile dropped of Finn's face and he stood up "I'll be back."
"Finn...I didn't mean it, please. It's too soon to start joking about that. I'm sorry."
"I'm just going to take a quick walk." Finn said as he picked up his keys.
"Why are you taking your keys if you're taking a quick walk? Finn!" Rachel tried calling him back, but he was already out of the door.
Rachel pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed,"You are trying to get him to trust you, not push him further away, Rachel." Rachel pushed the table that was in front of her away making it fall to the floor with all the food she hadn't eaten yet.
"Now I have to pick that up." Rachel sighed and rolled out of the bed.
It was about an hour later when Finn got back,"Helloooo Rachel."
"Don't 'helloooo Rachel' me where the hell have you been! You had me worried sick!"
"Well, I'm back, so you don't need to worry anymore."
Rachel narrowed her eyes at him,"Are you going to tell me where you were?"
"Nope, I don't think I need to."
Rachel pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed frustratedly,"Were you by Quinn?"
"What kind of question..." Finn mumbled,"Why the hell would I be by Quinn? I don't even know where she lives for crying out loud! And even if I was with Quinn that would be none of your business because you are not. my. girlfriend! Seriously Rachel? Could you think before you say something as stupid as that? I left to get us some board games to play." Finn said motioning to the bag in his hand.
Rachel sighed,"I'm sorry, Finn. I just-I keep getting these...images of you and Quinn together and...I'm just paranoid."
"You're really paranoid." Finn said with a laugh,"I can't believe you just asked me if I was with Quinn." Finn mumbled as he shook his head,"I don't want hear Quinn or Sam's name come out of your mouth anymore same for me. Okay? We are starting fresh meaning Quinn and Sam don't even exists. Got it?"
Rachel nodded,"Okay. I don't even know who they are anymore."
"You don't know who who is?" Finn asked in mock confusion.
"Quinn and Sam." Rachel said before noticing what he was doing,"Ohhhh I see what you're doing now."
Finn chuckled and shook his head,"What game do you want to play first, Rachel."
"Monopoly."
"Prepare to get an ass whippin'"
"Hmm...I wouldn't be too opposed to that." Rachel said with a wink.
Finn smirked and licked his lips,"Why is the table on the ground like that?"
"I kind of pushed in frustration when you left." Rachel said, embarrassed.
Finn laughed and shook his head, "Violence is not the answer Rachie."
"Says the one who knocked somebody out."
"No mentioning-"
"I didn't say a name."
"Well, I had a perfectly good reason for knocking that person out, he was on top of my girl."
"You're girl?"
"At the time she was my girl."
"And now?"
"Not exactly."
"Not exactly? Either she's your girl or she's not Finny." Rachel said with a smirk.
"Well I guess she's not."
"You guess?"
"I feel like I'm being interrogated." Finn said with a laugh.
"Sorry, just trying to get some information on what girl in their right mind would ever cheat on someone as amazing as you."
"I don't know. You tell me, Rach. I have been kind of wondering the same thing." Finn said a he sat on the other end of the bed after he put the table in between them.
"I don't know why either." Rachel said honestly.
"Well, I forgave her for it. We are putting it past us and starting fresh."
"Why are you giving her another chance?"
"I can't live without her." Finn said with a shrug as he looked into her eyes. When he saw her start to lean in to kiss him he turned away,"Maybe we should start setting up the game." Finn whispered as he started taking the game out.
Rachel sighed and started helping him,"Yeah."
The next morning Rachel's dads walked in the room and smiled when they saw Finn and Rachel sleeping in bed together. Considering it was a hospital bed and was made for only one person they were forced to be close together, but, they were close together that you could probably squeeze another person in bed with them.
"Hiram, do you think they're back together?"
"I hope so."
"Rachel." LeRoy whispered, "Rachela, wake up baby girl."
Moments later Rachel stretched out and woke up,"Hey dads." She said tiredly,"What time is it?"
"Almost noon." Hiram answered with a laugh.
"Really? We slept that late? Finn, wake up we-"
"Wait, don't wake him up yet. We want to talk to you really quick."
"One, don't you ever scare us like that again, you hear me young lady?"
Rachel sat as much as she could without waking Finn up or getting out of his embrace. Rachel smiled when he tightened his grip around her waist before looking up at her dads,"I'm sorry. Words can't explain how sorry I am."
"It's okay Rachela. Just, we want...no need you to stop doing this to yourself, Rachel."
"I will, I will, it's just. Without Finn next to me I just, I couldn't stop myself and it got to the point where I just started doing it for hours at a time and the other day I don't know what I was thinking I was just doing it and..." Rachel was crying now and her dads wrapped her up in a big hug and as she cried into their shoulders,"I love you guys and I'm so sorry."
"We love you two and we are sorry for not doing something the first day you came down stairs with blood shoot eyes."
"Oh I'm definitely sorry for everything I told you guys when you were trying to see if I was okay."
"Let's put it behind us. We didn't believe anything you were saying anyways."
Rachel laughed and pulled away while wiping her eyes,"What else did you guys want to talk about?"
"Are you and Finn back together?" They both asked at the same time with bright smiles.
"Not exactly..."
"What do you mean by not exactly? It's either you're dating or not, we're dying her Rachela!" LeRoy said impatiently.
Rachel chuckled,"Now I know why I'm so impatient. Anyways, he wants to be just friends he wants to wait until he can trust me again. But, he definitely will be giving me a second chance you guys just have to be patient."
"Trust me, it's you who has to be really patient. Finn is almost as stubborn as you."
Rachel laughed,"I don't think it will be long until we're dating again."
"He didn't answer you're calls or text for a month. I don't think it will take him one 'friendly' date for him to start dating you again."
"I know. It's different, I cheated and lied to him."
"It may take him months to trust you again."
"I hope not." Rachel said as she gazed down at him.
"Why is he in bed with you anyways?"
"We were playing a whole bunch of board games last night until like two in the morning then I told him to lay down, since he was going to voluntarily and I was not going to let him sleep on that small sofa, and we just talked for about two more hours until either he fell asleep or I fell asleep, I don't remember."
Hiram smiled,"Maybe he will forgive you in about a month or so."
Rachel smiled,"I hope so. Finn told me something really interesting by the way."
"What?"
"Do you guys think J was trying to commit suicide?"
"No! We didn't want to believe it, but the doctor sounded so convincing."
"Well I was not trying to do that. I would never do something as stupid as take my own life."
"We know."
"Did you now that Finn blamed himself for your overdose?" LeRoy blurted making Hiram punch him in the chest.
"What!?" Rachel said incredulously.
"I don't know if he is still blaming himself, but he was the night we talked to him."
"Oh God." Rachel whispered.
"He told us about the way you would call him crying sometimes."
"I think I have a headache."
"He feels guilty for not answering your calls because on of those calls could have been you calling for him to come help you. He feels like everything that happened is his fault because he said he promised you before you guys started dating that he was going to be there for you no matter if you guys broke up and he broke that promise to you and he thinks that because he broke that promise this is his fault."
"I feel nauseous." Rachel whispered.
"She deserved to know Hiram." LeRoy said when he saw the look on Hiram's face.
Hiram nodded and sighed,"I know. But, you should have let him tell her himself."
"He wouldn't have told me. Trust me." Rachel said with a humorless chuckle.
They sat there in silence until Finn started moving around and his eyes fluttered open second later. Finn looked up at Rachel and smiled, "Good Morning."
As mad as Rachel was at him she smiled back at him,"Good Morning." She said before pressing a kiss to his temple,"Did you sleep okay?"
"Yeah, this bed is a little small, but I guess I slept alright."
"Good." Rachel said with a smile,"My dads are here, " She said nodding towards her dads.
Finn quickly sat up,"Good Morning sirs."
"Morning Finn." They said with a smile.
"Dad, Daddy, can you guys leave so I can talk to Finn alone for a minute."
"Am I in trouble?" Finn mumbled to himself, but Rachel still heard.
"Oh yeah." She mumbled back.
"This isn't going to be good." Finn whispered.
"You got it buddy." Rachel said as she patted his back.
"Finn before you guys talk I want to say sorry, but she had to know." LeRoy said quickly as he was pulled out the door by Hiram.
"We'll just go get us all some breakfast."
When the door closed Finn looked at Rachel nervously,"So...um...what did I do?"
"You told my dads that you think me having an overdose is your fault because you broke your promise and because you didn't answer my calls?"
"Damn it. I knew they were going to tell you. Yes, I do think it is my fault. Nothing you say will change what I think. If I would have answered your calls or texted you back I probably could have stopped you from doing the drugs. I was just so mad at you, I wanted you to feel the pain you had caused me and I didn't realize just how much pain I was causing you."
"Finn, this is not your fault. This mine and mine only. I should have stopped myself. I knew what I was doing, I knew what was going to happen. I just didn't want to stop."
"Tell me that one of your calls wasn't to get me to come help you."
"That's not the-"
"See! You tried calling me, but I was too busy trying to hurt you so didn't answer you. I could have helped you Rach. You would not have been here in the first place if I would have just answered your calls."
"No! I would be here in the first place if I didn't do drugs!"
"Okay, you won. It wasn't my fault."
"If you don't remember, Finn, I can read you better than anybody and I know you are lying to me."
"God Rachel why can't you just drop it!?" Finn yelled angrily.
"Because I will not sit here and let you believe that this is all your fault when it is not your fault at all!" Rachel yelled back just as angrily.
Finn looked at Rachel,"You promise this isn't my fault?"
"I promise. This is nobodies fault but my own." Rachel said softly as she put her hand on his cheek.
Finn nodded and sunk his face into her hand more,"I'm sorry for yelling at you."
"I'm sorry too." Finn nodded and rested his hand on top of hers and pulled it from his cheek to his lips and kissed the back of her hand. Rachel smiled at him before letting go of his hands and wrapping her arms around his neck to hug him tightly. Finn wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her back just as tightly and pressed a light kiss to her cheek.
Rachel pulled away and smiled at him. Finn smiled back at her before standing up and stretching.
"Where are you going?" Rachel said with a pout.
"I'm just going to the bathroom, Rach."
"Oh, okay." Rachel said with a smile.
Finn laughed and went to the bathroom. Seconds later Rachel's dads walked in cautiously.
"Nothing is being thrown dads you can come in." Rachel joked with a laugh.
"Where's Finn! He left didn't he! This is all our fault we-"
"Dads! He's in the bathroom." Rachel said just as Finn walked out.
"Oh thank God." LeRoy said as he put his hand over his heart.
Finn looked at them confused before shrugging and going sit on the sofa,"I will never understand you guys."
Rachel laughed and tried not to be sad about the fact that he sat on the sofa instead of next to her. Rachel sighed and turned back towards her dads who were smiling at her sadly.
"Well, since you guys are back I'm going to leave." Finn said as he put on his shoes and stood up.
"You're-You're not going to stay until the doctor comes?"
"I made some plans with Santana and Kurt last night since you woke up earlier than I expected."
"But...What if he gives me some bad news? I would want my bo- best friend to be here."
Finn sighed and looked at his watch,"I guess I can stay for a little while longer." Finn smiled at her a little bit before sitting back down on the sofa and messing with his phone.
Rachel sighed and looked at her dads,"Can you guys get my doctor?" She asked quietly.
Her dads looked at her sympathetically before nodding and walking out of the door. When they closed the door Rachel stared at Finn longingly until he suddenly looked up at her and smiled.
"You want to come with Me, Kurt, and Santana to the fair tonight?"
Rachel looked a little surprised,"You're inviting me to come hang out with you and your friends?"
"Yeah, you're my friend too, right?"
"Yeah, best friends."
Finn smiled and nodded,"So, you're coming?"
Rachel looked a bit skeptical,"I don't think Santana or Kurt would like that."
"You're right." Finn said with a nod and Rachel looked down sadly,"But guess what?"
"What?" Rachel said quietly.
"I don't give a shit. They are just going to have to deal with it."
Rachel smiled,"You won't let Santana slap me again, will you? Cause that shit hurts like hell, I still have a bruise from her slapping me, it faded a bit now, but it's still there and it still hurt a bit."
Finn chuckled,"I know how you feel. She's slapped me before."
"She's slapped you! The way she acts with you sometimes I never would have thought she would slap you of all people."
"I dared her to. She felt bad the whole time I had the bruise."
Rachel laughed,"So, if you protect me from getting hit by Santana then I'll go."
"You have my word." Finn said with a smile just before the doctor and Rachel's dads walked back into the room.
"Hello, Rachel, how are you this morning?"
"I'm great. How are you?"
"I'm good. Now I wanted to talk about all of you about considering us shipping Rachel to a rehabilitation center in New Orleans."
"No-" Rachel started.
"LeRoy and I think that's a great idea. We have been considering sending her to one recently."
"I don't want to go!" Rachel yelled.
"Rachel, we think it is a good idea for you to go back for a while. This could be good for you." LeRoy reasoned.
"No, I don't want to go." Rachel said as she crossed her arms over her chest.
Hiram sighed,"Can you give us sometime to talk to her about it?"
The doctor nodded and steppe out of the room.
"Rache-"
"What do you think about this Finn?" Rachel questioned.
Finn's eyes widened,"This isn't any of my business."
"No, Finn, what do you think about this?" LeRoy asked.
"Well, if Rachel doesn't want to go I don't think she should go." Rachel smirked at her dads,"I'm not saying that I think it's a good idea for her not to go though." Hiram and LeRoy looked at Rachel and smirked too,"But, if she does go she'll hate it and shipping her there would be pointless because when she comes back all she'll want to do is smoke. I'm not just saying this because I know Rachel I'm saying this because my dad experienced it. My mom always tells me that he hated going to rehab and every time he got back it was like he learned nothing because he'd come back and start smoking again and eventually he died of an overdose. My mom always says she regrets not trying hard enough to help him get over his addiction. So, you can send Rachel to a rehabilitation center as many times as you want, but she won't learn anything. If she stays, I promise you I'll help her because her going to rehab for what the third time?" LeRoy and Hiram nodded, but still looked deep in thought,"Yeah, her going to rehab for the third time will do her no good." Finn stood up,"I'll pick you up at around four o'clock Rach." Finn walked over to her and kissed the top of her head before nodding to her dads and walking out of the room.
Rachel looked at her dads and raised her eyebrows, "So...?"
LeRoy looked at Hiram and the seemingly had some kind of conversation with their eyes before they both nodded and looked at Rachel,"You don't have to go."
"Oh thank God." Rachel breathe out.
"Now the reason why Finn wanted to help you out is so much clear now."
"I know! I was surprised when he told me too. I didn't know how much me having an overdose affected him until he told me."
LeRoy and Hiram nodded,"You better get that boy back because if you don't, every boyfriend you ever bring home I will hate." LeRoy said only half joking.
"I promise, I'm getting Finn back even if it is the last thing I do." Rachel said with a determined nod just as the doctor walked in.
"Did you guys make a decision?"
"Yes, we decided that she won't go. She'll stay here and us as well as her boy- I'm sorry, ex-boyfriend will help her get better."
Doctor nodded,"Okay, Rachel. You're free to go. I hope you get better." Doctor wrote something down on his clip board before looking at her dads,"Let me guess, her 'friend' is the ex-boyfriend that friend zoned her?"
"Sad right?"
"Yeah, I thought they were dating when I first time I saw them together." Dr. Wilson said with a laugh,"I hope you get out of the friend zone someday Rachel." Dr. Wilson said with a smile before walking out.
"I thought we were going to breadstix, Finn."
"We are."
"Then why are we at Berry's house?" Santana said with a glare to the house.
"I didn't tell you? We're picking up Rachel. Must've slipped my mind."
"You aren't getting back together with her...are you?"
"No...not yet at least." Finn mumbled.
"What do you mean by 'not yet'?"
"We're friends. I'm trying to trust her again. Maybe in the future we'll get back together."
"Finn she cheated on you and lied to you I don't thing she deserves a second chance."
"Everyone deserves a second chance, San."
"Not Rachel! I'm not letting you get back together with her."
"We're friends, Santana, just friends."
"Yeah, okay." Santana said as she looked away and crossed her arms, indicating that the conversation was over. Finn sighed and got out of the car.
"Hey Finn!" Rachel said when she opened the fire and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Hey Rach. You ready to go?"
"Yeah, Dads I'm leaving!"
"Okay, have fun! Don't stay out too late!"
"I'll have her back before eleven." Finn yelled back before he and Rachel started walking towards his car.
"I'll warn you. I literally just told Santana and Kurt when I pulled up in front of your house that you were coming with us so they may be a little pissed off."
"What! They're going to eat me alive Finn!"
"They won't do you anything, Rachel."
"Finn! They nearly killed me one month ago!"
"You' lol be fine. Just stay by me."
"I was planing on doing that anyways." Rachel mumbled, Finn decided to ignore it and opened the front door for her.
Rachel took a deep breath before getting in. Rachel could feel the glares being pointed at her from the back of the car. She let out a deep breath when Finn got in the car.
"Are we going to breadstix now?" Santana asked frustrated,"We aren't going pick up Karofsky now are we?"
"Santana, stop."
Santana sighed,"I'm not going to let Rachel put a damper in my mood."
"Good, now we are all going to have fun together. No fighting. Okay Santana?"
"You don't have to worry about me Frankenteen."
"Just making sure." Finn said with a laugh as he started driving towards breadstix.
"Hey Finn you want to share a plate of spaghetti with me? You know how they give us plate big enough for the both of us." Santana said when they sat down at breadstix.
"That's fine with me." Finn said with a shrug and put his menu down.
"You should get the waitress to get me a drink too."
"I'm not doing that Santana." Finn said with a laugh.
"I want one too!" Kurt said with a big smile.
"I'm sorry for interrupting but in order to get this drink you guys are asking Finn to flirt with the waitress?"
"Yeah, they are." Finn mumbled.
"Hmm interesting." Rachel said as she sat back in her seat and crossed her arms.
Finn looked at her before looking back at Santana and Kurt,"I don't think that's a good idea."
"Why? Because Rachel is here?" Kurt questioned with a raised eyebrow.
"Don't let me stop you from flirting with other girls, Finn. You aren't my boyfriend I have no right to be jealous."
"I can tell you're lying, but I'm going to act like you're not." Finn mumbled under his breath.
"I'm not lying." Rachel mumbled back.
"You lying to me isn't going to make anything better, Rachel."
"Shit, I'm sorry."
"Um..if you guys are done talking about your problems we'd like you to order our drinks Finn."
"Alright." Finn said with a sigh. Five minutes later the waitress came over to their table and smiled.
"Here are your breadsticks. My name is Kitty and I will be your waitress for tonight. What will you like to drink?"
Rachel opened her mouth I answer, but Finn cut her off my holding out his hand for her to take,"I'm Finn."
Kitty smiled and put her hand in his, "Hello Finn."
Finn kissed the back of her hand and smiled at her charmingly,"Has anyone ever told you you have the most beautiful blue eyes?" Rachel frowned at this.
Kitty blushed and shook her head,"No...no one has ever told me that thank you."
"Anytime." Finn said as he let her hand go and sat back in his seat still staring into his eyes.
"What would you like to drink?"
"I'd like some water. But, for these two." He pointed to Santana and Kurt,"I want your best alcoholic drinks."
"I can't-"
"Kitty," Finn leaned forward and stared deeply into her eyes,"Please, do it for me?"
Kitty sighed deeply seemingly under his spell,"I'll see what I can do."
Finn smiled at her, showing off his dimple,"Thank you."
Kitty smiled back at him and was about to start walking away until he called her back,"You didn't take her drink order." Finn said motioning to Rachel who was looking pissed off.
"I'm sorry! What would you like to drink ma'am."
"Sprite." Rachel said through gritted teeth Kitty nodded before smiling at Finn and walking off.
"Yes! You did it!" Santana said as she patted Finn on the back.
Finn smiled at Santana and secretly grabbed Rachel's hand under the table and squeezed it in reassurance. When he felt Rachel relax he looked back at her and smiled before letting go of her hand.
"I don't understand why you can't flirt yourself Santana." Finn said with raised eyebrows.
"Because most girls tend to like you more than they'd like another girl."
"You never know until you try."
"I'd rather not when I have a perfectly hot, single, friend."
"Well your 'hot, single, friend' isn't looking for a girlfriend at the moment."
"He should be. You aren't getting any older, Finn."
"I'm eighteen, San. I have a lot of time left. Don't worry about me."
"Oh really? Because a little bird told me that mama Hudson gave you her old-"
"Shut up Santana."
"No, I want to know what it was!" Kurt said with wide eyes.
Santana opened her mouth to say it before sighing and whispering it in Kurt's ear making him gasp and look from Finn to Rachel.
"Kurt...keep your mouth closed."
"Maybe I shouldn't have told Kurt. He has a record of not keeping secrets."
"Kurt if you tell her you die."
"Tell me what?" Rachel asked confused.
"It's something between the three of us. Friends only secret." Santana said with a smirk.
Rachel looked at Finn and pouted, "I'm your friend."
Finn quickly tore his eyes away from hers knowing how dangerous it is to look into her eyes when she wants something,"Yeah, you are my best friend."
"You guys have only been friends for a few hours." Santana said dryly.
"Oh Rachel, I wanted to ask you. How are you, you know after getting out of the hospital and all." Kurt asked.
"I'm fine thank you for asking." Kurt shrugged and went back to texting Blaine.
"Finn can I talk to you in private for a second."
"Nope." Finn said popping the 'p'
"Why?"
"Because you're going to put a spell on me with your eyes to get me to tell you the secret." Finn said just as the waitress came back with their drinks.
Kurt and Santana looked up and smiled brightly,"Thank you!" They said in unison as they started sipping on their drinks.
Finn smiled at Kitty,"Thank you for the drinks."
Kitty smiled back at him,"No problem. Are you guys ready to order?"
When everyone nodded she took their orders and walked away.
"Finn you have a note under your cup." Rachel said as she eyes the bottom of his cup. Finn took the note and laughed at it before putting it in his pocket.
"You're keeping it?"
"Unless you want it."
"I do actually." Rachel said as she held out her hand.
"Don't do it Finn! Rachel is just trying to stop you from getting ass that's not her's!"
"I'm not going to lie. That's exactly what I'm trying to do." Rachel said as she put on hand on her hip and raised her eyebrows.
Finn was actually a little turned on by her. Did she have that v-neck on all night? Finn asked himself as his eyes traveled down to her chest.
Then his eyes tracked down to her legs and goddamn they looked good. He never noticed just how long her legs were and the 'fuck me' jeans she had on wasn't doing anything to help his situation.
Finn looked back up at her face and licked his lips. She was smirking at him obviously noticing he had been checking her out and he wasn't going to do deny it.
"Are you too just going to eye fuck or...?" Santana asked making both their heads snap towards her and glare.
"You could be really annoying sometimes, Santana." Finn said as he took the number out of his pocket and put it in Rachel's hand.
Rachel smiled and ripped up the paper before putting the pieces in her pocket.
"She could have been a good rebound, Finn."
"I don't use girls to get over an ex, Santana. Even if I did I wouldn't hit on a girl with Rachel sitting right next to me, I'm not a dick." Finn thought about what he just said, "Well, I wouldn't have hit on Kitty if you didn't want a drink. I wouldn't intentionally try to hurt her."
"I don't know why because her intention was to hurt you when she got in bed with trouty mouth."
Rachel stood up abruptly, "God Santana just shut up already! I told him I was sorry! Don't you think I've been hurt enough!? He broke up with me, you slapped the shit out of me, and I just got out of the hospital because I had an overdose because I could deal with the pain of not being with Finn! I think I've had enough hurt for this month. Finn wasn't the only one that was heart broken, believe it or not. I love Finn more than anything and to have him break up with me, I just...I can't. I know I fucked up. I know I did. But, you don't need to keep reminding me of my mistake ever fucking second you get." Rachel sat back and turned to Finn,"This was a bad idea. I want to go home."
"Let me talk to you really quick." Finn said as he took her hand and pulled her over into the family bathroom. Finn wrapped his arms around her as she cried into his shirt.
Rachel wrapped her arms around his waist tightly as she cried,"I'm so sorry, Finn. I couldn't hold it in anymore. She was just...I'm sorry."
"Hey.." Finn said softly as he rubbed his hands over her back and waited for her to look up at him,"I'm proud of you. I'm glad you stood up for yourself. Santana was going a little too far and I couldn't be more proud of you than right now, Rach."
"Really?" Rachel asked with a smile as she wiped her tears.
"Hell yeah. You looked hot too." Finn said with a wink making Rachel blush and bury her face in his chest. Finn laughed and kissed the top of her head,"Come on let's clean this mascara off your face."
"I probably look like a monster with mascara all over my face."
"Yeah, you kind of do." Finn joked making her nudge him in the stomach.
Finn laughed and started wetting a paper towel. He picked her up by the waist and sat her on the sink before softly wiping her face. When he was done they stared into each other's eyes and Finn stroked her cheek.
"Beautiful." He murmured. Rachel smiled a bit before slowly leaned in to kiss him. Right before their lips touched she paused to give him time to pull away, but instead of pulling away he leaned in the rest of the way and pressed his lips to hers.
Rachel sighed and wrapped her arms around his neck and held onto him tightly. After a moment Finn pulled away and rested his forehead on hers.
Rachel opened her eyes and stared at his face as he kept his eyes closed and one hand on her cheek and the other on her hip.
"I'm sorry, Rachel."
"For what?"
"I'm not ready yet. I don't regret kissing you because, it felt good, but I shouldn't have. I feel like I'm using you."
"You don't have to be sorry, Finn. We needed that. It has been a really...crazy day."
Finn smiled at her and opened his eyes,"You don't want to leave still do you?"
"No, I'll stay with you."
"Good. Because when we get to the fair we are going to ditch Santana and Kurt. How does that sound?"
Rachel smiled,"That's perfect."
Finn smiled,"Let's get out of here now."
Rachel pouted and wrapped her legs around his waist and laid her head on his chest,"I don't want to."
Finn chuckled,"We have to ba...Rach."
Rachel looked up at him and laughed,"Aww...am I still your baby girl?"
Finn smirked,"Always."
Rachel smiled and kissed his cheek,"Mwah!"
Finn laughed and picked her up and sat her on the ground,"Let's go."
Rachel took Finn's hand in hers and they walked out of the bathroom together. They walked back to the table and it was a little awkward until Santana cleared her throat.
"I'm sorry Rachel. I was way out of line."
"It's okay. I'm sorry for yelling."
Santana nodded and minutes later the waitress came back with their food.
"This looks so good and I'm starving." Santana said with a smile,"I might eat all of it myself."
"I didn't order anything though Santana!" Finn said with a pout.
"I'm kidding Finn! Do you really think I would let you starve."
"Yes..."
"Just for that I'm going to let you starve."
"You wouldn't do that to me San." Finn said as he pick up his fork and reached for some.
"Nope." Santana said as she moved her plate.
Finn pouted,"I'll just starve."
"Here you can have some of mine." Rachel said as she put some spaghetti on her fork and held it up to his mouth.
"Is it just me or do they act like a couple even when they aren't a couple." Santana whispered in Kurt's ear.
"Nah, people half way across the world can see it."
"Rachel! You got the sauce on my nose!" Finn said with a pout.
"Stop being a baby." Rachel said as she licked her thumb and wiped his nose,"Happy?"
"I'm sorry I may have missed the part where you guys told us you were dating again."
"We're not." They both said.
"Yeah, okay." Santana said before going back to eating.
"How long do you think it will take them to get back together?" Kurt asked as he stared at Finn and Rachel who were now laughing at the fact that Finn had spread sauce on her cheek.
"A day." Santana said with a smirk.
"I say a week."
"Forty dollars?"
Kurt held out his hand and smiled, "You're in Ms. Lopez."
Santana put her hand in his and they continued watching Finn and Rachel who had more food on their faces than in their mouths.
"Guys the ticket booth is over there." Finn said as he pointed to it.
"If you haven't noticed we aren't ten feet tall so we can't see over all of these people Finn!" said Kurt.
"Rachel probably can't because she is two feet tall." Finn said as he looked down at Rachel with a smirk.
Rachel glared at him and jumped on his back almost making him fall,"Oh I see it now."
"After almost killing me." Finn said as he adjusted her on his back.
Rachel wiggled around on his back, "Come on move."
"Please don't move like that on my back." Finn mumbled.
Rachel buried her face in his neck and smiled,"Why? Am I turning you on?"
"Maybe a little." Finn whispered as they walked up to the ticket booth.
"Four wrist bands please."
"That would be sixty dollars."
"I'll get your wallet for you."
"No, Rach, I can- nevermind." Finn said when he felt Rachel's hand in his back pocket and her squeezing his ass.
"You have a really firm ass."
"Rachel please just get me my wallet."
"What's the fun in-"
"Rachel."
"Okay! Okay!" Rachel said with a laugh and pulled out his wallet.
"Thank you." Finn said and handed the lady the money before they all got there wrist bands.
"Where should we go first?" Finn asked everyone.
"I thoug-"
"Shh." Finn whispered.
"Oh okay." Rachel said and rested her head on his shoulder.
Kurt and Santana turned around to look for rides and Finn started slowly backing up with Rachel laughing hysterically on his back.
When they couldn't see Santana and Kurt anymore Finn started laughing and Rachel slid off his back.
"I can't believe you just did that." Rachel said in between her laughs.
Finn laughed and threw and arm around her shoulders,"So what do you want to do first?"
"Well...I've never been on a roller coaster before."
Finn looked at her incredulously, "You're joking."
Rachel shook her head,"I'm not. I've always been to scared."
Finn shook his head,"We're going on this ride weather you like it or not."
"But-"
"Nope, you need to woman up, Rach."
Rachel smiled at how adorable he was before nodding,"Okay, but only because I know that if I hate it I have permission to kick you in the balls."
Finn started turning around,"You know on second thought maybe we should go on that dinosaur ride over there. Much less scarier."
Rachel laughed,"Nope, we are going on this ride Hudson." Rachel said as she grabbed his hand and started walking backwards towards the roller coaster.
"Okay, but don't kick me too hard if you hate it. I still want to have babies someday." Rachel just laughed and started running towards the roller coaster with him dragging along behind her.
Three hours later Rachel had forced Finn to get on the Ferris wheel with her only because he forced her to get on the roller coaster with him. He really hadn't forced her to get in the roller coaster with him, but he was going to let her believe what she wanted.
They were currently sitting at the top of the Ferris wheel and Rachel was gushing about how everything looked from the top.
Finn suddenly got an idea and started faking yawning and wrapped an arm around her shoulders. Rachel laughed and looked up at him,"Did you really just do what I think you did."
Finn smirked,"I think I did."
Rachel laughed and laid her head on his chest and sighed,"It's so beautiful tonight."
"Do you think it's weird that we still act like a couple even though we are friends?" Finn asked as he rested his chin on the top of her head.
"No, which is why we should just get back together." Rachel reasoned with a smile.
"Nice try babe, but I can't do that."
"Why not? I think we've suffered long enough without each other." Rachel said with a pout as she looked up at him.
"I think we should wait until we both trust each other fully."
"I do trust you, Finn."
"I don't trust you."
Rachel sighed,"I hate not being able to kiss you whenever I feel like it."
"I know you hate being patient, but if you really love me you'd be patient."
"Okay, I'll be patient, but only because I love you. Just, don't expect me not to flirt with you."
"We've been flirting all day, Rach. I'm pretty sure I can accept flirting with each other."
"Good, because I don't know what I would have done if I couldn't at least flirt with you."
Finn looked down at her and smiled, "Are your dads still making you go to rehab?"
"Nope." Rachel said with a big smile, "Thanks to your big speech my dads aren't making me go."
Finn smiled,"Good, now you can stay here with me and we'll get you through this together. I vow to never leave your side no matter how mad I get at you."
Rachel smiled,"Oh good because if you ever get mad at me ag-"
"There will never been an again, right?"
"Right." Rachel said just as they reached the bottom and started getting out.
As soon as their feet touched the grass they were pulled over by Kurt and Santana,"Why the hell did you guys leave us?"
"It was Finn's idea!" Rachel said immediately and giggled as she pointed at him.
"Good luck finding a ride home tonight."
"You wouldn't."
Finn smirked,"Wanna bet?" Finn said then started running to towards the parking lot. Rachel laughed and started running after him.
"Did they ever answer my question?" Santana asked as her and Kurt just stood there.
"I don't think they even looked at us." Kurt said as they both turned around and started walking towards the car,"Do you think they'd forget us?"
Santana thought about it before her eyes widened,"Let's go." Santana said as she gabbed Kurt's shirt and started running with him.
"You're making my shirt all wrinkly!"
"Stop being a girl!"
"I had fun tonight, Finn. I'm glad you invited me." Rachel said when they got to her front door.
"I did too. This past month has been complete hell, so I'm glad we both got to get out and do something fun together."
"Yeah, me too." Rachel said as she discreetly moved closer to him.
"So, um...I'll pick you up for school tomorrow?"
"Yeah, definitely." Rachel said as she stood right in front of him. She put her hands on his shoulder and gently pulled him down. She stood on her tippy toes and kissed his forehead,"Goodnight, Finn." She kissed his cheek once before unlocking her door and walking in the house.
"Night Rach." Finn whispered back before she closed the door and saw a hint of a smirk on her face before the door closed.
Finn smiled softly to himself before stuffing his hands in his pockets and walking back towards the car.
"You should have kissed her." Santana said as soon as he got in the car.
"You don't even like her!" Finn said as he started the car.
"Yeah, but she is actually pretty good for you. As much as I hate to admit it. The girl loves you, Finn."
"I know, but give it sometime. We'll get together eventually."
"Then you can give her that ring that mom gave you!" Kurt said with a big smile.
"Woah, little brother. Too fast."
Kurt laughed,"I know, I just really want a sister in law. And I would like a niece.
"Whatever comes out of Rachel's vagina is what you get."
"Ew, Finn, that was just gross."
"It's true!" Finn said while laughing.
"Just don't talk anymore."
"Ok-"
"Shut up."
"Bu-"
"Nope."
"Ku-"
"Zip."
Finn huffed and closed his mouth making Santana and Kurt laugh as they pulled up in front of Santana's house.
"Bye Satan!"
"You aren't going to walk me up to my door like you did for Rachel?"
"Nope."
"You're a real gentleman, Finn." Santana said sarcastically.
"Stop being dramatic and come on." Finn said as he got out of the car.
"You opened the door for Rachel."
"Ugh!" Finn said as he opened the door for her.
She held out her hand,"You helped Rachel out of the car."
"Oh my goodness." Finn said as he grabbed her hand and helped her out of the car,"Do you want me to hold your purse too?"
"That would be great, Thank you." Santana said as she sat her purse in his hands and started walking up her porch.
"That was a rhetorical question." Finn said dryly as he waited for Santana to unlock her door. Santana kissed his cheek and took her purse,"Bye Finn!"
"Bye Santana." Finn grumbled.
"You need to be more excited than that."
"Bye San! I can't wait to see you tomorrow."
Santana smiled,"That's better. Bye Finny!" Santana said before closing the door.
Finn shook his head and laughed before walking back to his car to go home with Kurt.
