"No." Rachel said slowly.
Finn was surprised, he still loved her, but he thought it was too late, she fell in love with another guy.
Rachel leaned in as if to kiss him in the lips but instead pecked him on his cheek, she smiled at him and said "You can try and win me back, but i dont guarantee anything." Finn smiled and put his arms around her waist pulling her in for a hug, she sighed. Finn whispered in her ear "I miss you so much, Rach."
She pulled out from the hug and looked at him and put out her hand "Friends?" she asked he took her hand and shook it and said "Friends." and grinned at her.
Kurt and Rachel walked down the mall, they were talking about anything that would come up to mind. They became really close ever since Kurt left to Dalton. They went into stores and then went out sometimes they would come out with nothing and other times they would come out with 2 or 3 bags added to the other ones they already had. They went into a coffee shop and sat down in a table near the back of the shop the waitress came and got their orders.
"So," Kurt said shortly after they had gotten their coffee, "Whats with you and Finn?"
Rachel looked at him and and said "We're just friends, nothing more."
Kurt put his hand over Rachel's and said "He loves you Rachel, he talks about you every time I take warm milk up to his room, and when he has to pick me up from Dalton."
Rachel sighed, "I know, Kurt, I know. But I'm not sure I feel the same way I did before about him. He hurt me so many times you know? and if I had to make a choice right now, he wouldnt be it. I just cant let myself fall so easily again all my love life has been a joke, no one will ever accept me for who I am and I have learned that with the many relationships I have been with. Like with Sam." Rachel felt a tear streak down her face; she quickly wiped it away but it didnt go unnoticed.
"What happened with Sam?" Kurt asked softly.
"I gave him all of my heart, Kurt, and I chose Noah over him, and I dont know but I think he just used me for..." she stopped before she said too much, she knew she had already passed the line there was no way Kurt wouldn't ask about what she was about to say.
He gave Rachel's hand a small squeeze and asked slowly and cautiously "Rachel, what?"
Rachel looked around, and just shook her head and said "Later, Kurt."
Kurt just nodded, he knew she was going to tell him. They sipped their coffee quietly and when they finished Kurt payed for the coffee, Rachel and Kurt both murmured their thanks and departed to Rachels car.
Rachel and Kurt arrived to Kurt's house. They were having a sleepover; Rachel stepped out of the car and grabbed her duffel bag from the back seat of the car as Kurt got his shopping bags.
"Are you sure you dont want to bring your bags down too?" asked Kurt, "the clothes might get wrinkled."
Rachel giggled, "Its fine Kurt, really!" she added when she saw the expression of his face.
"Okay then" he shrugged and headed inside the house, they put their bags in Kurt's room and headed back downstairs. They walked into the kitchen where Finn was silently inspecting the refrigerator seeing what else there was to eat. "Hudson" Kurt said in a deep voice. Finn quickly closed the refrigerator door and turned around, he looked at Kurt and told him "Dude, you have to stop doing that!"
Kurt just laughed and grabbed two glasses, "Rachel, water or soda?" She hesitated for a moment then told him "Water would be lovely, Kurt." Kurt poured soda into one cup and in another water. He handed the one with water to Rachel. As they started out of the kitchen Finn asked "What are you guys gonna do?" Rachel turned around and looked at him "We are going to watch Funny Girl and then Rent. Want to join us?" Kurt pouted but before he could protest Finn told Rachel "Yeah that would be cool." Rachel smiled at him and then they made their way into Kurts bedroom. As Kurt put in the movie he said "You get the floor, Frankenteen" Finn just shrugged and settled himself on the floor. Rachel settled herself beside Finn and Kurt laid down on the bed. Before the movie started Kurt asked Rachel if she was fine on the floor, Rachel just smiled at him reassuringly. When they were watching the movie Finn put his arm around Rachel, and Rachel leaned towards Finn. They stayed like that for the both movies, as the end credits started for Rent, Kurt jumped off the bed and told Finn to get out of the bedroom, Finn quickly said goodnight to Rachel and stepped out of the room, he was about to go to his own room but then he heard Kurt ask Rachel "So what happened with Sam?" so he stayed put outside the door.
Finn had walked out and Kurt had asked Rachel the question she had been dreading all day. "Kurt, I'm really tired can we talk about this tomorrow." Kurt looked at her and raised an eyebrow, "Rachel, it better be now than later! You know I'm not going to let this go and Blaine and I are your best friends we have a right to know!"
(Rachel/Kurt)
Actually, Noah is my best friend and he doesnt know either!
Kurt frowned, Ha! Puck out of everyone! Hey! Dont change the subject and tell me!
I didnt change the subject she stated quietly and sighed in defeat, Fine! Well, er... we started out as friends and then my feelings towards him started changing slowly, I didn't mean for it to happen, It - it could happen to anyone .. and well then we got together, and our relationship was very wonderful I loved him so much Kurt, I dont know how it happened but I loved him more than I have ever loved anyone... and well as you know we broke up because of an earring I found.. Then that same day I got back with Finn and I don't know Kurt, but being with Finn no longer felt right I felt like I was missing part of myself... then er.. yeah he got back with Quinn.. after that hmm... we became friends again... and a week later I broke up with Finn... Oh Kurt! He sang me a song in the auditorium it was wonderful! he sang me lips of an angel by Hinder and it was simply amazing! Then well when he finished the song I ran up to kiss him and well.. he pushed me off him.. then urgh Jesse returned, so I sort of got with Noah... and Sam visited me in the middle of the night and entered through my window.. then we kissed and then it turned into so much more than a kiss.. Kurt it was so sweet and wonderful,, he was just so patient and gentle with me and when...when we were done.. Rachel had turned a bright red. We laid in eachothers arms and then we had an affair I was still with Puck and he with Quinn.. and It was the most wonderful time I had ever spend but during all the time we talked very little and were in bed for a very large amount of time.. I think thats what he used me for. But I never regret it, I always look back trying to make myself think it was a big mistake but my heart wont let me.
Oh Rachel! Is he still with Quinn?
Yes said Rachel and she put her face on her hands and started sobbing silently and when she looked up it wasn't Kurt that was there it was Finn looking at her silently with pain and confusion in his eyes, slowly he took Rachel into his arms and started crying himself. He felt horrible, why would she give herself to Sam? But he held her in her arms because he loved her, he loved her so much that he felt that in any moment he was ready to explode.
Rachel sobbed into Finns shirt, her little hands clutching his shirt tightly, she wanted to forget Sam, she needed to forget him and without thinking, just following her instincts she looked at Finn and reached up and kissed him. She didnt know why but at this moment she knew that she was giving Finn another chance.
