Hi, guys! It´s me again, sorry for taking so long to update the second chap but I´m focusing in the other story also and I really want to be perfect. Anyway, in this chap I´ll explain why Finn kissed Rachel so suddenly and he also tells her how the submarine world is.
Keep reviewing!
P:S: how I ´m really fan of Sabrina Carpenter, she also appears in this story but she´s not Rachel´s sibling, she´s a neighbor who joins the glee club in the next chapter but she appears in Rachel´s performance and her name is going to be Sarah Montgomery. Stay tuned!
Chapter 2.- Magical kiss and a new friend
That night, after Rachel and Quinn had a long conversation, she lay in bed thinking of that beautiful creature who appeared in her pool and kissed her for no apparent reason, but nevertheless…the sensation of feeling his lips against hers was something almost majestic rather magical, Rachel was captivated not only by Finn´s beauty, also in his sweetness, innocence and his fascination for humans. As she promised the next morning before the first light of dawn; Rachel left her room quietly to avoid waking Quinn and went to the garden to meet his handsome boy half-fish. She leaned into the pool to see if he returned.
"Finn" Rachel called him sweetly and he poked his head to the surface, with a big smile he swam towards her and Rachel smiled hearing the splash of his tail. When Finn touched the edge of the pool, stared at her with devotion and took her hand. "Hi"
"You came back" Finn said rubbing her wrist with his thumb. "I thought I´ve never see you again"
"I promised, remember?" Rachel said tenderly and Finn nodded. "I had to be discreet not to wake Quinn; she always sensed things and has a fine ear"
"Oh, like dolphins" Finn replied giving Rachel his signature half-grin. "they are awesome and can communicate with other members of their family at very long distances with only hear sound; by the way…Quinn is the girl who was calling you when you were with me last night and you left?"
"Yeah, she is my cousin" Rachel answered and Finn says nothing as if he got the point. "She lives here now because she was transferred school and her parents died long time ago in a boating accident, then she grew up and lived with our grandma but..she couldn´t keep her so…it´s hard, you know? Still, Quinn is kind and really cool, you´re going to like her if you meet her"
"sorry to hear that" Finn said sadly and Rachel looked at him sweetly. "but for now no one can know about me, I just want you to be the only one I can trust, Rach; you are so special to me"
"Finn, can I ask you something?" Rachel asked politely still holding Finn´s hand as he places his other hand on Rachel´s cheek.
"of course" Finn replied with a smile and trying to keep from kissing her back, because after all he was sentenced to a forced marriage.
"Why did you kiss me?" and it was not a time..your lips captured mine twice and not that I´m complaining" Rachel wanted to know while Finn still staring at her without saying anything. "I don´t even know you and It felt amazing but…you..You´re getting married and I´m a simple human…"she couldn´t finish the sentence when Finn leaned and smashed his mouth against hers, after a minute, both parted the impulsive kiss for air. "Finn"
"I feel like I´ve known you forever, Rachel" Finn finally said. "I loved kissing you and…what I felt with that kiss was enter and leave the same heaven, I kissed you because…I really like you, Rachel Berry. I´m falling in love with you and I don´t marry for love, my mom is forcing me, but if I could choose the woman I love to be my wife, I´d choose you, I haven´t the strength to stay away from you, and If I kiss you again, then I feel that…you´ll always be with me"
"I really like you too, Finn" Rachel replied and felt a lump in her throat. "But I´m scared, I´m scared that I´m not part of your world, you´re a mermaid, I mean…merman living in the beautiful kingdom of Atlantic and…"
"Coventry" Finn corrected politely bringing her hand to his lips and kissing it. "It´s Coventry, babe"
"Sorry" Rachel said giggling and Finn smiled at her. "This is Ohio, a small town for fishermen and the school I go is McKinley; what I mean, Finn is…I´m not what you want, I´m no beauty to please your mother…I have legs, I can´t swim"
"I don´t care" Finn replied staring at her. "Rachel, you are the most beautiful and glorious girl I´ve seen in my life; I´m falling for you; I just wanna be with you and if I have to give up Coventry to live in the land then I will" said that, he took her hand. "Please by my girlfriend"
Rachel was immediately charmed by him and nodded, he with a mischievous smile took her by the waist and dragged inside of the water with him, she suddenly gasped remembering she couldn´t swim
"Finn!" Rachel protested but he refused to let her go. "it´s not funny, I told you I can´t swim"
"come here" Finn gets her closer to his chest and stroked her long hair. "nothing bad will happen to you while you´re with me, okay? I´m going to protect you" he leaned to capture her lips with his but for the first time the kiss he gave her was not sweet and gentle, this was passionate and sensual. He traced with his tongue her bottom lip asking for permission and she immediately granted opening her mouth. Their tongues met in a sexy tango dance and after they parted for air, both had smiles on their faces. "wow"
"Same here" Rachel replied with a giggled and pecked his lips once more. "I guess now we´re even, boyfriend"
"What?" Finn asked and Rachel tensed a little but he still holds her. "I am your boyfriend?"
"Well…considering that I like you and you like me and after we made out...we´re dating" Finn smiled and when he was about to kiss her she pulled away. "but it will be a little weird our relationship that you are half fish, I can only see you out of school and preferably me being alone. And…I promise to make you very happy, Finn. I…don´t know why I´m saying this but…I´m also falling for you and…"
"I love you" Finn said the most powerful word leaving Rachel speechless and sealing his promise with a kiss on her lips. "I love you" another kiss. "I love you" once more. "I love you so much"
"I love you too" Rachel answered and kisses him; he smiles against her lips and rubbed her cheek with his thumb. "But if we love each other, let´s go slowly and don´t rush things. At least I want you to know you a little better and have a date"
"What´s a date?" Finn asked curiously lifting his tail and then put it into the water, splashing in the process. "I´ve never heard of that at home"
"a date is when two people hang out and…go to the movies, the park or dinner to talk about what they like and well, know each other better" Rachel said while Finn trying to understand the message. "Here when two humans are attracted to each other they have dates, even not necessarily have to be romantic purposes; also friends can have dates"
"Sounds amazing" Finn said solemnly. "I may not be fully human as you but…can we have a date?"
"Sure" Rachel agreed and he captures her lips on hers giving her a sweet kiss. "your tail tickles" she said laughing"
"Sorry" he said sheepishly and lifts his tail once more to prevent it touch his girlfriend´s legs. "about the song you were singing the other day? It was so beautiful and um…I was wondering if you…want to sing for me again"
"here? Inside of the water?" Rachel asked and Finn nodded. "I´m completely wet"
"Oh" Finn looked down and then at Rachel. "Hold on tight, I´ll take you to the mainland" Rachel puts her hands around his waist and he began swimming toward shore, the girl closed her eyes to try to calm. After a few minutes, she opened it and realized she was out of the water and Finn inside. "You´re safe now, and…I´m sorry I dragged you into the water is just…I wanted to give you a real kiss"
"It´s okay" Rachel answered giving him a beautiful smile. "I can sing now if you want"
"I want to" Finn nodded encouraging her and leaning on the edge of the pool to accommodate better. While his tail rested in the water. "I would give anything to hear you sing again"
(Rachel closed her eyes and imagined she was on a big stage only her and Finn, but for the first time he was dressed like an ordinary guy (blue and white shirt long-sleeve checkered, jeans) and…he was completely human. Rachel had the microphone in her hand and staring at Finn all the time)
Rachel (spoken)
When I first saw you, I saw love
And the first time you touched me, I felt love
And after all this time,
You're still the one I love
(The music started and with a smile she continued staring at the man she was in love)
Rachel
mm…yeah, yeah
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(Suddenly appeared behind Rachel tree girls holding microphones: Quinn, Madison and other pretty and blond girl with long and wavy hair that looked so much younger than the other girls, it turned to be Sarah Montgomery, Rachel´s neighbor and who wants to join New Directions)
Rachel with Sarah, Quinn and Madison
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
Rachel
Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong

Yeah…
Rachel with Sarah, Quinn and Madison:

Rachel:
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
Back to the present, Finn smiled and just as he leaned to kiss her, someone cleared her throat breaking the magic moment
"Sorry to interrupt" a little voice said and Rachel discovered it turned to be her fourteen year-old Sarah. "I wanted to come because my parents are away for the weekend but…apparently you are busy"
"Sarah, hi" Rachel greeted sheepishly and Finn looked curiously at the young girl. "No, of course not. Of course you can come but…I wasn´t expecting you"
"It´s okay, I...was leaving anyway" Finn replied looking at the little blonde with big green eyes. "It was nice meeting you, Sarah"
"Whoa" Sarah exclaimed pointing her finger at the big blue tail began to half Finn´s torso. "That thing is real?"
"Uh oh" Rachel exclaimed sheepishly and then looked at her. "Yeah it is, my boyfriend is…a merman, Sarah. I know it´s hard to believe but…you have to promise not to tell anyone, just me and now you know that, okay?"
"As Rachel said" Finn explained. "No one besides you knows about me. So if we keep the secret will be better for everyone"
"word of girl scout" Sarah replied with a smile and raised her right hand. "this is awesome, I had never seen a mermaid in person, I always thought they were a myth, I mean…I personally love them but…I didn´t think they were real"
"well…" Finn said giving her his signature half-grin. "I´m real, and…I´m glad that Rachel has someone to trust"
"we all thought the same" Sarah and Rachel said in unison before fiving with Finn
