I'm sorry its been so long since i updated this, i have been busy but it's mostly just laziness. anyway like i've said before this story will focus on more than just Rachel and Kurt and this is kind of one of those chapters

The Ultimatum

It took a long time for what Kurt had just seen to sink in. He was still stood at the doorway rooted at the spot. Thankfully After Finn had finished he just collapsed on Quinn and they just lay there together. Neither noticing that they were being watched. From what he saw Kurt knew two things. Firstly Finn was cheating on Rachel. He had no idea how long this had been going on, but it was going on. But also from the way he reacted when he thought it was Rachel he knew that he definitely did have feelings for her, romantic feelings. And strong ones at that. He had a lot he needed to figure out but he also knew he had to move. He didn't want to get caught spying on them and so he carefully closed the door and tip toed quietly away.

As Finn lay there, completely spent with his Gorgeous cheerleader ex girlfriend in his arms he just had one thought on his mind. What the fuck just happened!. Up until today he'd barely spoken to Quinn at all. Sure he'd been sneaking glances and she'd been on his mind a lot but he hadn't actually approached her at all. So he was surprised that the first thing he saw after leaving a gruelling football practice was a Cheeroes outfit, belonging to Quinn.

"Hey Finn"

"Oh hey" He couldn't help but feel awkward as he looked at her

"I was thinking we should talk"

"Why?"

"We used to be so close. I felt I could tell you anything and now we don't speak at all. And plus I never did really say I was sorry for what happened."

"It's ok. I forgive you"

"I know you do, but I still want us to be more like we used to be. Come on Finn, Please?" As she asked she reached out her hand lightly touching his shoulder as she flashed a smile. There was no way he could say no to her.

"Ok, but I'm not sure how Rachel would take us being together" The nervousness he felt about the situation was apparent in his eyes.

"Don't worry about it, lets go somewhere public. Like breadsticks. That way its obvious we're not up to anything we shouldn't be, just two people catching up." A slight nod was all Quinn needed as her answer. She placed her hand in his and started to pull the somewhat reluctant Finn to their destination. He'd forgotten just how warm her hands were. He remembered how he used to sit for hours with Quinn beside him, the warmth of her body against his skin. It brought back happy memories but at the same time painful ones. The walk to the restaurant was quiet, silent even. Quinn had let go of Finn's hand and were now walking side by side without speaking. The silence continued when they reached the restaurant. They both ordered food but neither really touched it. Just poking and prodding at their meals while occasionally looking up to see the other but not saying a word. As time passed and the silence grew more awkward Finn finally spoke up.

"I thought you wanted to talk" It came out more direct than he had wanted and he could see a little bit of hurt in Quinn's eyes as she responded. "I did but you can barley look at me." And it was true. Even though all he could think about lately was Quinn he couldn't bring himself to talk to her. "Finn… I just want to say…. that I'm sorry for cheating on you." without looking up from his plate he responded

"I know all this Quinn, you've apologised before and I've said I forgive you."

"But you Haven't though." This time her words were said with much more emotion than before. Spoken in a way that was almost pleading with him. "You've always blamed Puck but it was my fault to. You cant really forgive me until you realise that." as soon as he saw the sincerity in her eyes something happened to him. He let go of the anger towards her he didn't even know that he was holding inside. And from then on it was just like old times. He was hanging out with the girl he used to love talking about old times and funny stories. It was an incredible feeling. He invited her back to his house knowing Kurt was out to watch a movie. And from then it was just a blur. He had no idea how he'd ended up sleeping with her or what the hell he was going to do now.

Meanwhile all the pacing around the house was not helping Kurt at all. He knew for sure now that he wanted to be with Rachel but he was her gay best friend. Could she ever see him in that way?. More importantly she was still with Finn. And although that meant that they couldn't be together he would never want to break that relationship up as it would devastate Rachel. Or at least he felt that way until he found out Finn was cheating on her. Now he knew Finn wasn't good enough and she deserved better. He couldn't be the one to tell Rachel though, he couldn't hurt her like that. It would have to come from Finn himself. He'd have to convince Finn to tell her. With his mind made up and the adrenaline pumping he figured now was the best time to do it and he head straight off for Finn's room. As he knocked on the door he hadn't properly figured out what to say, he hoped it would just come to him

"Finn I need to talk to you"

"Now's not a good time Kurt just leave me alone for a bit ok"

Ignoring his response and opening the door anyway he looked Finn straight in the eyes

"I know about you and Quinn"

"Oh".

"How could you do that to my best friend and your girlfriend". After a while of staring at the Floor Finn Finally spoke up. "Are you going to tell Rachel"

"No I'm not, you are"

"I can't do that. I love her and she wouldn't forgive me"

"She deserves to know Finn. If you don't tell her I will. Its better coming from you. If you ever want her to forgive you and trust you again you have to be the one to tell her."

Finn opened his mouth to argue but instead just looked back down at the floor. "You're right, I'll tell her tomorrow"

"Thank you. it's the right thing to do." Not wanting to make things anymore difficult for him Kurt decided to leave him alone and just go to bed.

That night Kurt had one of the worst nights sleep of his life. He lay there going over every possible scenario of Rachel's reaction in his head. Would she be angry and start shouting, or would she cry. Would she want to be alone or would she turn to him for comfort. So when his alarm went off he was relieved even though he had hardly slept at all. It was time to get this all over with. The walk to school with Finn was long and silent. He knew Finn did love her and this was going to be hard but it was the right thing to do. When they got to the school Rachel was already there waiting for them. After a quick last look to Kurt Finn began to tell her.

"Look Rachel I need to talk…."

As soon as he started to talk Rachel brought her hand up to interrupt him.

"I need to talk too you Finn and I'm going to go first. I don't like the way you've been acting recently. You never spend any time with me and every time I see you you're looking at Quinn. You're being an awful boyfriend and I want to know what's going on. If something doesn't change we're over." Although this was a very serious situation Kurt couldn't help but smile. Rachel had been so down and upset lately that it was nice to see a bit of her demanding diva attitude back.

"You're right, and I'm sorry. Yesterday I spent the day with Quinn and… something happened" Kurt could see Rachel's heart sink and he knew that the attitude was just a front. She was going to be heart broken but at least he would be there to console her.

"Ok, so what exactly happened"

"I decide that you're the one I want to be with Rachel, Not Quinn not anyone else just you. I love you Rachel". Suddenly time seemed to stand still for Kurt. In all the scenarios he'd imagined this was not one of the outcomes. Had he Heard Finn right?. His thoughts were brought to an abrupt end when he saw Rachel leap on Finn throwing her arms around him and kissing him. She turned to Kurt with her eyes beginning to water. "Isn't this wonderful Kurt. Everything's going to work out, I'm so happy right now. "

"Yeah Rachel, it's great. I'm so pleased for you. At least that's what he said out loud anyway. For as he looked over at Finn, with Rachel's arm around his body and her head resting sweetly on his chest, on the inside his head and his heart were screaming

"It should be me"

I Loved reading your responses to my question on the last chapter, so i was wondering if you were Rachel would you take Finn back after the way he's been acting?
