Hi, guys. I´m back with the fifth chapter; this time we will see what was the answer of Rachel to Finn; remember that things in the underwater world are completely different to the human world. Also, something very surprising happens in this chapter, so; without any further…let us start.
"Rachel..?" Finn asked looking at his beautiful human girlfriend, who just stared at the beautiful diamond ring inside the velvet box. "Do you want to become my wife?"
"Finn…" Rachel finally said closing the velvet box. "The ring is so beautiful and this is so romantic but…I´m sorry I…I don´t want to marry you"
"What?" Finn said sadly. "You…I don´t understand…I thought you loved me"
"I do love you" Rachel responded but Finn simply looked down sadly. "Finn, look at me" she lifted his chin with her fingers. "I love you so much"
"Then why you don´t want to marry me?" Finn asked in frustration. "I don´t want Kitty as a wife, I want you as my wife. I know I´m not like you and…maybe I´m a half fish but…I can give up my life in the ocean, Rachel. I can even give up to become the king of the seven seas is if turn to human just to be with you. I just want you to marry me"
"Finn, I can´t marry you" Rachel said raising her voice as she got up from the bed.
"Why?! Why you don´t want to marry me?!" Finn screamed as he threw the velvet box on the floor. "Are you ashamed of me or simply I´m not good enough for you?! That´s the real reason, isn´t it…you rather a human as a husband than me?!"
"No!" Rachel responded as Finn shook his head in sadness. "Finn, try to understand. We are from different worlds…you are a merman and I´m a human…besides…we have a week dating…I barely know you"
"I don´t care!" Finn yelled. "I want you to be mine! That´s the only thing I want, Rachel!"
"Finn, you can´t force me to marry you" Rachel yelled. "that´s not how things work in the land…I need time to think…I can´t marry a guy I barely know…God, Finn…I´m just sixteen-years old and…"
"Forget it, Rachel" Finn coldly responded. "I…I need to go…I can´t be here any longer"
"Finn…Finn, please don´t go" Rachel said as tears stream down her face. "Try to understand that I love you…"
"If you loved me, then you would marry me" Finn simply responded as he started leaving her room. "I´m going home and I´ll marry Kitty; just like my mom wanted in the first place"
"Finn…" Rachel said tearfully.
"Goodbye, Rachel" Finn left his girlfriend´s room as tears streamed down his face; Meanwhile, Rachel stays in her room soaked in tears as she kept heartbroken. But on the other hand, Finn was left heartbroken by the rejection of his beloved girlfriend; he couldn´t understand why she didn´t want to be his wife, if both loved each other so much. Him with tears in his eyes jumped in the pool and his tail returned but he just didn´t care; surprisingly, Marley was already in the water and swimming at the same time, when she noticed her brother´s eyes filled with tears.
"Finn?" Marley asked confused as she swam towards him. "Are you okay? Why are you crying?"
"I´m going home, Marley" Finn responded tearfully. "I´m going home and marry Kitty; I forget I came here and I met Rachel…everything will be as before"
"What?" Marley wanted to know. "I don´t understand…what does Rachel have to do with you want to go home…I thought you were happy here"
"I was" Finn said coldly. "I thought Rachel loved me…and I asked her to marry me but she turned me down…" a tear slid down his cheek and touched the water, forming a little and simple wave. "Maybe I´m not good enough for her and I´m sure she never wanted a merman as fiancé. Who would want a man half fish? Face it, Marley…I don´t belong to this world"
"Finn, listen to me" Marley said taking her brother´s cheeks and staring at his eyes. "you belong to this world…you belong to Rachel. Just tell me…what sense has to come home…make Kitty your wife and live unhappily married for the rest of your life just to please mom…or live in the land with your true love"
"She doesn´t love me, Marley" Finn said with tears in his eyes. "I turned to Kitty so I could marry Rachel and she turned me down. So I can´t do anything but go home"
"Finnegan, you´re being really unfair" Marley argued as she splashed him with her fin. "you can´t pressure Rachel to accept your proposal…we come from different world…we are from Coventry…a beautiful aquatic world. Rachel is a human"
"And how do you know that?" Finn asked. "As I know, you are a mermaid"
"I know" Marley responded softly. "But I read books about the life of humans and…they don´t get married on impulse…they do it for love…and only arranged marriages occurred many years ago. We are in the 21st century"
"What´s your point, Marley?" Finn said. "I love Rachel; I want to marry Rachel because I love her"
"If you loved her enough…then you wouldn´t force her to something she´s not ready for" Marley said sadly. "You have to give her time to think"
"But she didn´t wanted to marry me" Finn protested. "She told me"
"Are you sure?" Marley asked forming waves with her hand in the water. "or what she really said was that she didn´t want to marry you right away?" Finn stared at her but he didn´t say anything. "You don´t know but…she does want to be your wife…just she wants to wait for a while until she is ready"
"Then…she wants to marry me?" Finn asked with a smile.
"Yes" Marley smiled sweetly. "What you need to do is…go back to her and apologize for pressuring her. A guy, who really loves a girl, is patient and knows how to wait, he doesn´t do things impulsively"
"I´m so stupid" Finn said upset. "I didn´t mean to hurt her…I just…I don´t want to lose her"
"You know what to do, brother of mine" Marley said as she started to swim again. "Don´t blew it"
"Yeah, thanks" Finn sardonically said as he rolled his eyes; Marley giggled before disappearing inside of the water.
[Rachel is sitting in her bed as she thinks how badly hurt her Finn when she rejected his proposal]
[Rachel]
If I could do it all over, maybe, I'd do it different
Maybe I wouldn't be here, in this position
I found you then I lost you, looking back is torture
and it hurts to know I let you go, you live right around the corner
And I could've had it all, could've had it all
True love, I know I had it
True love, was so hard to find
True love, if I could get it back,
I'd never let it go this time
True love, is an inspiration
True love, it was mine, all mine
True love, if I could get it back,
I'd never let it go, I'd never let it go this time
[Finn gets out of the water wraps a towel around his waist and runs towards Rachel´s house to apologize to her. Rachel walks towards the balcony and looks at the horizon with sadness]
Feeling it all around me, wondering how I blew it
and I wanna know the secret, of how they, do it
No such thing as perfection, I'm still learning that lesson
To forgive is key to forgetting me
And I'm staring at my reflection
And I could've had it all, could've had it all
True love, I know I had it
True love, was so hard to find
True love, if I could get it back,
I'd never let it go this time
True love, is an inspiration
True love, it was mine, all mine
True love, if I could get it back,
I'd never let it go, I'd never let it go this time
[Some flashbacks are shown: when Rachel discovers and meets Finn in her pool; they talking, they sharing their first kiss in the water, most of the romantic moments they spend together]
If I knew then what I'd do now I'd be with you tonight
If I knew then what I'd do now we'd be alright
I could've had it all, could've had it all, could've had it all, could've had it all
[Finn enters Rachel´s room and walks towards her; Rachel is still at the balcony and looking at the horizon with sadness. Finn walks from behind and with a smile, wraps his arms around his waist as he puts his chin on her shoulder]
True love, I know I had it
True love, was so hard to find (could've had it all)
True love, if I could get it back,
I'd never let it go this time (I'd never let it go)
True love, is an inspiration (oh)
True love, it was mine, all mine
True love, if I could get it back, yeah
If only I could get it back, I'd
True love, I'd never let it go
True love, it was mine, all mine
True love, I could've had it, could've had it, could've had it all
True love, is an inspiration
True love, it was mine, all mine
True love, yeah
If I could get it back. I'd never let it go this time
[She is still sad and then she feels someone is holding her lovingly, tears stream down her face]
I'd never let it go, this time
True love
"That was beautiful" Finn said snuggling closer to his beautiful girlfriend. "You sing like an angel"
"Thank you" Rachel responded turning to look at him as she wipes her tears. "But I thought your aunt has the most beautiful voice of the seven seas"
"She was" Finn responded. "But your voice is more beautiful than hers"
"Finn…" Rachel responded looking at him. "Please forgive me…I didn´t want to hurt you when I rejected your proposal I…"
"I´m the one who wants to apologize, my love" Finn said taking her chin with his hands and staring at her. "I shouldn´t pressure you for this kind of commitment I…I should understand that you´re still not ready…I just wanted you to be mine forever"
"It´s okay" Rachel responded putting her hands on his cheeks. "what I meant was…I want to be your wife but…not right now; we need to know each other better and…I still don´t know about your world, I have much to learn from your world and you need to learn from mine. Besides, I don´t think your mom accept a human as a daughter"
"Who knows? Maybe she can change her mind when she sees you" Finn responded lovingly. "You´re so beautiful and kind. You´re the best choice I could ever make and…if you want to marry me someday…then we´ll make it happen"
Rachel smiled and kissed Finn passionately; he immediately kisses her back with passion and hunger, she wrapped her arms around his neck as she deepens the kiss with her tongue, he with a wide smile opens his mouth and found his tongue with hers, their tongues and lips finding each other with hunger. After an intense moment of kisses, they break the kiss and kept pressing their foreheads together; Finn, playing with Rachel´s brown and long hair.
"I´m ready" Rachel immediately said without thinking.
"What?" Finn asked confused. "Are you ready to marry me?"
"No, silly" Rachel laughed. "I´m ready to give myself to you…I want us to make love…tonight"
"What is making love?" Finn asked confused. "That´s not the recipe for a cake?" Rachel giggled.
"No; make love is have sex but in a loving, sweet and gentle way. The lovemaking does two people who love each other. Soulmates…and it´s so beautiful because you feel connected with that person"
"Do you want me to make love to you?" Finn asked starting to understand as Rachel nodded. "I don´t want to force you to something you´re not ready for, my beautiful girl. We can wait, you know? Until we are husband and wife…we don´t have to have sex tonight"
"I want to" Rachel responded lovingly. "I´m ready because it´s with you…I don´t want to wait anymore, Finn. I want to give you something that no one else is gonna get"
"Are you sure, Rachel?" Finn asked taking her hands in his. "I don´t want to hurt you"
"You won´t hurt me" Rachel responded. "I trust you"
"Um…I don´t have a…how is called this plastic thing that looks like a sea cucumber?"
"It´s a condom" Rachel responded as she looked tenderly at Finn; he was so young and innocent. "And it´s to prevent that people have babies or getting a disease"
"Well…I´m clean since I live in the ocean and…I want to have babies with you" Finn said lovingly. "A beautiful girl who has your gorgeous big brown eyes and long brown hair that has an angelic voice or a boy who looks like me, kind and happy"
"We can have a baby…in the future" Rachel responded. "And don´t worry if you don´t have protection; I´m….protected. I´m taking a pill for that"
"Rachel…" Finn started sounding unconvinced.
"I trust you" Rachel simply said as she walked towards him and unwrapped the towel it was wrapped around his waist; this fall on the floor and it left Finn totally naked in front of her; she ran her hands through his bare chest and his well defined abs.
Rachel took a deep breath and slowly she started to remove her clothes and underwear, she standing naked in front of him; the both of them looking at each other for the first time.
"You are so beautiful" Finn said stroking her hair. "So gorgeous, sexy and…"
"You are beautiful too" Rachel responded as they lied on her bed; Finn laid on top of Rachel and started kissing her passionately., they looked each other, in love and nervous of hurting each other.
So long
I've been looking too hard, I've waiting too long
Sometimes I don't know what I will find
I only know it's a matter of time
When you love someone
When you love someone
It feels so right, so warm and true
I need to know if you feel it too
Maybe I'm wrong
Won't you tell me if I'm coming on too strong?
This heart of mine has been hurt before
This time I wanna be sure
I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you
And a love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
Finn were kissing Rachel everywhere, since her hair, her forehead, her lips, her neck, until her naked body, he then laced his fingers with hers as they look at each other with love in their eyes. Once he entered inside her body, breaking her virginity, she cried - tears came and go, the pain was still there. But the journey just began, thrust in and out, Rachel found herself looking at the stars in Heaven.
You're so good
When we make love it's understood
It's more than a touch or a word we say
Only in dreams could it be this way
When you love someone
Yeah, really love someone
Now, I know it's right
From the moment I wake up till deep in the night
There's no where on earth that I'd rather be
Than holding you, tenderly
Finn was gasping and saw the flame of the fire entertaining the physical intimate but it added the emotionalism. It showed him that he loved her, she was his whole world.
I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you
And a love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
The kisses were passionately but full of love. Moans and screams were their excitements. The ecstasy.. That was the best human experience Finn has ever lived and that was magical, beautiful and perfect. He finally understood when a person found their soulmate; and Finn and Rachel were soulmates.
I've been waiting, waiting for you, ooh
Ooh, I've been waiting
I've been waiting, yeah
I've been waiting for a girl like you
I've been waiting
Won't you come into my life?
My life?
After spending their love experience, they collapsed into each other arms and rested, with big smile on their faces and felt so proud and relaxed. So happy.
"I can´t believe he turned me down" Kitty protested furiously as she swam back and forth. Sugar, another mermaid who was her friend listened attentively as she sat on a rock. Sugar Motta was the daughter of the most powerful merman from Coventry; Triton was the king, but Sugar´s father was the mayor of the whole ocean. So he gave his daughter all the luxuries from the entire ocean. "and that´s not the worst…that silly and ugly human has to ruin everything with her friends…to me nobody humiliates me"
"What´s the point of marrying, Finn? As I know…you can´t stand him" Sugar replied and Kitty turned to look at her, but the mermaid simply shrugged. "I´m sorry…I suffer Asperguer´s and I tend to say things without thinking"
"The point of marrying Finn is not that I really love him, because I don´t" Kitty said. "Well…the point of arranged marriage has a benefit…if Finn and Marley´s mother is the queen…to marry his son, I become the princess of Coventry"
"Then you want to marry Finn for money?" Sugar asked as Kitty nodded. "Kitty, that´s really mean"
"I know" Kitty smirked. "But I´ll get revenge from Finn, Marley, my ex´s girlfriend and finally get what I want. Actually…" she scratched her chin thoughtfully. "I will go to the sea witch and get a potion of love to seduce Finn…in this way; he will forget Rachel and we can finally get married""
"I don´t agree with your decision, Kitty" Sugar replied sadly. "You´re playing with the feelings of an innocent boy"
"I didn´t ask your opinion" Kitty said with a smirk. "And if you don´t want to be on my side…then I don´t have to be your friend…you have a nose like gonzo from the Muppets, you can´t even sing and I´m sure your father gives you luxury so he doesn´t have to deal with you"
"I never wanted to be your friend anyway" Sugar responded confidently. "I just did it because I thought you were different and nice, but I was wrong…you´re a bitch and a bully"
"You´re right, my sweet Sugar" Kitty said. "I´m a bitch" she turned around and swam, splashing the other mermaid with her fin in the process. Sugar simply rolls her eyes and swam away.
[Kitty keeps swimming as she thinks of destroying and make Rachel´s life living hell; so she decides to go and ask help from Morgana; the sea witch]
[Kitty]
I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
You must have been relieved
To see the softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
All rolled into one
I'm a bitch
I'm a lover
I'm a child
I'm a mother
I'm a sinner
I'm a saint
And I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell
I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way
[she imagines she is in the cheerios; with her legs and doing some routine with the other cheerios in the football field, she smirks evilly as she looks at Finn from afar and thinks of something to get him back]
So take me as I am
This may mean you'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing
I'm a bitch
I'm a lover
I'm a child
I'm a mother
I'm a sinner
I'm a saint
And I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell
I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way
[Back to Coventry; Kitty is in her house as she brushes her long blond hair and looks herself at the mirror; suddenly, her reflection fades and instead appears scenes of her and Finn together as a married couple. They look so happy and she smiles at the image]
Just when you think you've got me figured out
The season's already changin'
I think it's cool you do what you do
And don't try to save me
[Scenes go back to her fantasy, when she keeps dancing; she then walks towards Finn seductively; Finn gets captivated by her and takes her in his arms]
I'm a bitch
I'm a lover
I'm a child
I'm a mother
I'm a sinner
I'm a saint
And I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell
I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way
[Back to the ocean; Kitty swims towards to the den of the sea witch, she smirking the whole time to thinking about destroying Rachel]
I'm a bitch
I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt
When you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb
I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way
"Good evening, Kitty" Morgana said as the mermaid swam towards her. "What a pleasant surprise that you visit me. What can I do for you?"
"I need a love potion to get my fiancé back and we can get married. I know you can help me" Kitty continued. "Your sister…Ursula helped Ariel to give her legs so she could be with Eric"
"I know, and my poor sister was killed by the prince and betrayed by the same Ariel" Morgana replied harshly. "DON´T YOU EVER MENTION MY DEAD SISTER!" some thunder rumbled in the sea sky because of her piercing screams, making the poor mermaid shiver of fear.
"I´m sorry, I didn´t mean" Kitty replied as the old woman started to smile.
"Good girl" Morgana said patting Kitty´s head. "Well…if you want the potion…you must give me something in return"
"My voice?" Kitty asked. "Because Ariel gave it to…you know who and…it didn´t work for her"
"No, my dear; don´t be silly" Morgan replied with a fake sweetness. "It would be a waste of time to take such a beautiful voice, which is not precious to me…there´s something more valuable…I´ll show you" Kitty swam to where it was a table in the middle of the pit. A crystal ball was placed by Morgana, who invoked a spell and some scenes started to show. "See this?" a beautiful and graceful teenager smiled as she hugged Finn and Rachel, both smiling and hugging her lovingly back. She had the eyes, hair and beauty of Rachel, while she had the smile and dimples of Finn. Her father´s innocence and kindness of her mother.
"Wait a minute…" Kitty replied as she observed the crystal ball; the young girl was swimming in the ocean with Melody; but she had legs instead of a tail; and then Flounder and Sebastian swam towards her. She immediately smiled and hugged her aquatic friends. "Are you trying to tell me that Rachel is pregnant?"
"Exactly. In this crystal ball is revealed the future…and Rachel will have a daughter from Finn Hudson…the young girl is an hybrid" Morgana explained. "Which means that she is half mermaid, half human. Her parents named her Marissa"
"Wow…she´s so beautiful" Kitty admitted as she observed how the teenager was playing with her aunt, and her two friends. Marissa was making waves in the water. "I don´t understand; what do you want from Marissa? She´s an innocent, sweet little girl who hasn´t born yet"
"I want her!" Morgana replied with frustration. "That girl has majestically powers and…if you bring her to me…I will make her my slave and together we will rule the ocean"
"Do you want me to kidnap her?" Kitty replied in shock.
"I'm glad you got it, my girl" Morgana said mischievously.
"I can´t do this to Finn and Rachel" Kitty replied starting to feeling guilty. "They will die without their beloved daughter. For Neptune's sake, Morgana! Marissa is just a kid"
"You won´t kidnap her when she is just an infant…you will bring her to me when she turns thirteen. On the night of her thirteen birthday, the full moon will make her powers are stronger and she will learn to control them. It´s in this way that she will be useful to me" Morgana said with a smirk. "Bring Marissa to me…and I will make sure that you and Finn are happily ever after"
"But…for that it´s going to be many years ahead" Kitty protested. "I want to marry Finn now"
"Oh, don´t worry" Morgana replied. "As Marissa is an hybrid…her growth is accelerated. So instead of years…it will happen weeks, days and months. Within five months…Marissa will be a young teenager and then you can bring her to me"
Kitty was starting to regret the proposal that the sea witch was offering her. And Kitty was not really evil, she just had a lot of anger and somehow she wanted to take revenge of Rachel; but on the other hand, giving the witch Finn and Rachel´s child…then she could win Finn´s heart with a love spell and Rachel will end up heartbroken…just as she wanted from the beginning.
"Okay…I will do it" Kitty said shaking hands with the witch.
"Come tomorrow for the potion and in a few months…bring Marissa to me" Morgana said. "You can go now"
Kitty nodded and swam away from the den of the witch. Once she returned home, she thought about the mistake she had made, an all for wanted to get her fiancé back…she put in danger the life of an innocent child who hasn´t born yet; but as the mermaid was so proud and selfish, she didn´t think about the consequences and only in her own benefit.
The next morning; Rachel woke up with a big smile on her face and entangled on her sheets, but she also discovered that she was totally naked; and the smile was because she and Finn made love for the first time; which was beautiful and wonderful time, despite losing her virginity to him was very painful, Finn had been very gentle, loving and delicate with her. He had treated her like a fragile rose and covered her with kisses and caresses, showing how much he was in love with her. Like him, who gave his virginity to Rachel as well; two souls had turned into one…one heart, and one soul. She stretched her long and beautiful legs under the sheets, when a pair of bare feet entangled her feet with his; as well, a body snuggled closer to her, wrapping his arms around her naked body, as he ran his hand through her long brown hair.
"Hi" Rachel said turning to looking at Finn, who was simply smiling and staring lovingly at her. "How did you sleep?"
"Sleeping with the love of my life was the most magical thing I´ve experience in my entire life" Finn said as he continued stroking her long hair. "I love you"
"I love you too" Rachel giggled. "But I didn´t mean to sleep aka lovemaking…I mean the other kind of sleep…where you can dream"
"Oh; that was awesome" Finn replied with a smile. "It´s the first time I sleep in a real bed. Normally at home, we sleep in shells"
"That´s not comfortable?" Rachel asked as she traced delicate circles on his bare chest. He holds her closer to him.
"Well…for a mermaid and merman it is" Finn admitted. "But for a human…a bed is much better option to sleep"
"Yeah, I guess you´re right" Rachel sighed and then looked at his boyfriend. "Finn?"
"Yeah, baby?" Finn asked as he kissed her forehead lovingly.
"You don´t regret it?" Rachel asked, staring at him. "You know…that we had sex?"
"Never" Finn responded. "My first time with you was something special and beautiful and I wouldn´t change it for anything in the world. And what about you? I didn´t hurt you, did I? Because I never wanted to hurt you when I took your virginity"
"No, you didn´t hurt me" Rachel responded as she noticed that Finn started to look worried. "I mean…at first is painful because a barrier breaks but that´s totally normal since you were my first. Plus, you were so gentle and loving that…you made me feel beautiful, sexy and loved. That was the best thing that could ever happened to me and I don´t regret it"
"I don´t regret it either" Finn said rolling over as he lies on top of her; the sheets entangled in their legs. "Actually…" he smirked. "I want to make love to you right now…again"
"Oh my God" Rachel laughed, but then her giggles were silenced with Finn´s mouth on hers, putting his tongue on her mouth as she happily reciprocated. Their tongues and mouths found each other with hunger; as Finn ran his hands through Rachel´s naked body, both of them starting moaning and panting as they thrust and pumped their hips at unison. "Oh yes, Finn!" Rachel moaned. "oohhhh!"
"Oh, God, Rachel!" Finn moaned against her mouth. "I love you! I love you! I love you!"
Hey, Rach, I was wondering if…" Sarah started saying when she opened the door and entered her friend´s room. "Oh my God…I´m so sorry" she immediately covered her eyes.
"SARAH!" Rachel gasped as she put the sheets and covers over her and Finn´s covering their naked bodies. "GET OUT!"
"I´m leaving!" Sarah immediately said nervously and left the room totally embarrassed, slamming the door behind her.
"Hey, Sarah" Quinn greeted as she stopped reading her book, when saw the young girl started leaving Rachel´s hand. "I don´t understand….I thought you were going to wait for Rachel to go to the museum together"
"There was a change of plans" Sarah said hanging her back pack. "Apparently Rachel is busy at this time and for what I saw…Finn and she were very lovey-dovey; goodbye, Quinn" she continued as she left her house.
"How strange" Quinn thought as she continued to reading her book.
Back in her room; both Finn and Rachel were embarrassed that Sarah caught them about to have intercourse that neither of them thought about making love again; at least, right now. Therefore, Rachel puts on a dress as Finn rewrapped the towel he had used the night before around his waist. The two of them looked at each other until Finn finally broke the silence.
"I´m so sorry, Rach" Finn said looking down sadly. "If I hadn´t started all this, I…"
"Finn, stop it" Rachel replied staring at him. "It´s not your fault…actually, I didn´t know that Sarah would come. Normally, on Saturdays she visits her grandmother in the nursing home. And well…it was my fault because I should´ve lock the door"
"Well…we can…" Finn asked sheepishly. "Maybe do something else?"
"Like what?" Rachel wanted to know curiously.
"Meet my world…Coventry" Finn replied staring at her.
"Are you serious?" Rachel asked.
"Yeah" Finn responded sweetly. "I can introduce you to my mom and…I can show you how is the underwater world. There are many plants and aquatic friends that surely you will like them"
"But, Finn…you´re forgetting something" Rachel replied. "I´m human…I´m not like you, who has a tail and can breathe underwater, I…can drown and die"
"That can be fixed" Finn replied staring at her as he leaned over and gave her a romantic and tender kiss on her lips. Minutes later, both broke the kiss.
"I don´t understand" Rachel said shocked. "Why did you kiss me?"
"I gave you the ability to breathe underwater" Finn said. "Come with me and I´ll show you"
"Then I will be a mermaid with legs?" Rachel asked and Finn nodded. "Wow…I always wondered what it would feel having tail and fins"
"Just come with me" Finn said taking his beloved girl´s hand and both left the house without Quinn noticing, because the blonde was focused on her reading. They walked through a secret passage to reach the bay. Once there; Finn dropped the towel on the sand and totally naked, he got in the sea; causing his tail came back. "Are you coming, Rach?"
"Okay" Rachel nodded as she entered the ocean with her dress on and reunited with Finn; she took his hand as they dived underwater. Everything looked completely different underwater. The underwater world was a whole new world for Rachel.
{Finn and Rachel swim under the sea; while the young and handsome merman kept holding her hand. Rachel moved her legs gently and slowly as Finn moved his tail and fins harmoniously. As both of them joined their voices in a melody]
[Finn]
I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did you last
Let your heart decide?
I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming
[Rachel]
A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But now from way up here, it's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky
[They kept exploring Coventry; many wonders were showing during their journey; as starfish, sea anemones, coral reefs with intense and beautiful colors; marine plants and flowers; everything was so magical that was hard to believe]
[Rachel (Finn)]
A whole new world
(Don't you dare close your eyes)
A hundred thousand things to see
(Hold your breath, it gets better)
[Finn and Rachel]
I'm like a shooting star, I've come so far
(Rachel: I can't go back to where I used to be)
[Finn]
A whole new world
With new horizons to pursue
[Finn and Rachel]
I'll chase them anywhere, there's time to spare
[Finn]
Let me share this whole new world with you (oh, oh)
[They stop swimming and they kept locking their eyes on each other; entwining their fingers together as they sang]
[Rachel (Finn)
A whole new world
(A whole new world)
[Finn]
A new fantastic point of view
[Finn and Rachel]
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
[Rachel]
Or say we're only dreaming
[Finn (Rachel)]
A whole new world
(Every turn a surprise)
With new horizons to pursue
(Every moment gets better)
[Finn and Rachel]
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
[Rachel]
Anywhere
[Finn]
There's time to spare
[Rachel]
Let me share
[Finn]
This whole new world with you (Rachel: you, ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Rachel (Finn)
A whole new world
(A whole new world)
That's where we'll be
(Where we will be)
[Rachel]
A thrilling chase
[Finn]
A wondrous place
[Finn and Rachel]
For you and me
Finn and Rachel slowly leaned to kiss passionately when…
"Finn? Honey?" the voice of the queen made the lovers stopped kissing to turn to look at the kind woman; who swam to her son and hugged him tightly. "My baby boy…I thought I´d never see you again" once again, she embraced him.
"Hi, mom" Finn said, when they finally parted the hug.
"Oh my God, Finn" Carole said anguished as she put her hands on his cheeks. "You had me so worried about you…where have you been, young man? And where is your twin sister?"
"I´m fine, mom. It´s okay" Finn comforted his mother. "I´ve been exploring the human world and as for Marley…she´s fine too"
"Exploring the human world?" Carole protested. "But son, it´s dangerous. There are merpeople hunters out there and…humans are not to be trusted"
"You´re wrong" Finn responded harshly but then softens his tone when he realized that he was talking to the queen. "Mom, not all humans are equal. I…I met a beautiful girl and I fell in love with her" he immediately swam to Rachel and brought her before the queen. "Mom…this is Rachel Berry…the love of my life" Rachel shyly makes a polite bow.
"It´s a pleasure to meet you, your majesty" Rachel said politely.
"Oh, sweetie" Carole responded looking at her son. "She´s so beautiful and lovely…but, she is a human"
"I know, but…" Finn started saying but Rachel answered instead.
"With all due respect, your Excellence…I know I´m not like you and…much less I hope you accept me as a member of your family" Rachel said. "But…when Finn came to my life, was the best thing that ever happen to me. And…he was the one who came to me, I just found him in my pool and from the beginning I knew he was magical and different"
"Then you´re the one who ran away from home" Carole asked looking at her son.
"Yes I did" Finn responded without hesitation. "And you know perfectly the answer. No way in hell I´m going to marry that hateful mermaid"
"Finn, is not that I force you to get married; it´s the rules" Carole said. "Kitty comes from a good family…she´s beautiful, smart and…"
"Rachel is more beautiful than Kitty" Finn said standing in front of the gorgeous tiny brunette. "I don´t care if she´s human, I will marry her"
"now you begin to sound like your aunt Ariel" Carole replied sadly. "and she was only sixteen…she was just a young girl"
"I´ll be eighteen in a few months like Marley…and I can make my own decisions" Finn said. "I will decide to whom to marry. And if I decide that Rachel is my wife and the mother of my children, then that´s my choice"
"Finn, you´re being irrational" Carole said taking her son´s hand. "I only wish the best for you"
"If you wanted, then you wouldn´t force me to marry a woman that I don´t love" Finn replied sadly. "it was a mistake coming here. Goodbye, mother" then he looked at Rachel and took her hand. "Come on, Rachel. This is not my home anymore" Rachel nodded and they started to swim away.
"I don´t say that you are a bad mother and I´m not one to judge" Rachel said looking at the queen. "But if you could listen to your son and to know what he really wants, then you would stop a forced marriage. Until then, your majesty" the girl turned around and with her merman, both swam to the surface to return to the island.
-FLASHBACK-
King Triton and Sebastian were confronting Ariel, who had returned from the surface along with Flounder. But as the young girl could see, was that her father was not very happy to hear that his daughter had disobeyed the rules; never swam to the surface.
"I just don´t know what we´re going to do with you, young lady" Triton said crossing his arms.
"Daddy, I´m sorry" Ariel protested nervously. "I´m sorry, I just forgot, I…"
"As a result of your careless behavior…" Triton threatened her but then Sebastian spoke.
"Careless and reckless behavior" Sebastian continued.
"The entire celebration was, erm…"
"Well, it was ruined!" Sebastian argued. "That´s all. Completely destroyed! This concert was to be the pinnacle of my distinguished career. Now thanks to you!" he pointed at the girl. "I am the laughing stock of the entire kingdom!"
"But it wasn´t her fault!" Flounder protested. "Uh, well…first, ugh, this shark chased us. Yeah, yeah! And we tried to but we couldn´t and…" he started to recreate the event that had happened to them a few hours ago. "grrr and we whoaaa oh, and then we were safe but then this seagull came, and it was this is this, and that is that, and…
"What?! Seagull?!" Triton asked shocked as Ariel turned to look at her friend with a glare. "Oh, you went up to the surface again, didn´t you? DIDN´T YOU?!"
"Nothing happened…" Ariel sheepishly said as she folded her hands together.
"Oh, Ariel" Triton slapped his forehead before looking at his younger daughter again. "How many times must we go through this? You could've been seen by one of those barbarians, by…by one of those humans!"
"Daddy, they´re not barbarians" Ariel protested.
"They´re dangerous. Do you think I want to see my youngest daughter snared by some fish-eater´s hook?" Triton said putting his hand on her cheek, but Ariel look away.
"I´m sixteen years old!" Ariel protested. "I´m not a child anymore!"
"Don´t take that tone of voice with me, young lady" Triton scolded her. "as long as you live under my ocean, you´ll obey my rules!"
"But if you would just listen…" Ariel kept protesting tearfully.
"Not another word" Triton stopped her. "And I am never, NEVER to hear of you going to the surface again, is that clear!" Ariel leaves swimming as she started crying.
-END OF THE FLASHBACK-
Once she left alone; Carole sadly swam towards the castle and sat on her throne to see that she had lost her son again. She sighed as she looked at the photograph of the small locket with Triton and Carole as young kids. "Oh brother…what I´m going to do? I tried to talk to Finn but…he´s just as stubborn as Ariel. If only there were a way to make him reason" she dropped her face in her hands. "I don´t understand what I´m doing wrong"
Back to the island; Finn finally put some clothes on and with Rachel sat on a bench after eating ice cream.
"How do you feel?" Rachel asked rubbing his arm.
"It frustrates me that my mom don´t trust me" Finn said with sadness. "She thinks that I´m not good enough to make my own decisions"
"Well…I think I ruined things" Rachel said looking down. "If I…I never had agreed to visit Coventry…"
"Rachel, don´t" Finn said taking her chin with his fingers and staring at her. "Don´t ever say it was your fault, do you understand me? You have nothing to do with this. My mom thinks humans are dangerous and that´s why…she wants me to marry a mermaid against my will but…in a few months I will be an adult and…she won´t decide about my life again. It wasn´t your fault okay, love? Don´t ever say that again"
"Okay" Rachel responded as she sighed and leaned her head on her boyfriend´s shoulder. "I wish I could met Ariel before"
"Yeah, me too" Finn agreed as they stared at the horizon together.
Kitty returned to the laid of the sea witch as she promised and saw that Morgana had a small bottle in her hand. The liquid was pink with a touch of red…the smell was nice…chocolate and blue berry.
"ah…I see you came back" Morgan said, sounding pleased.
"yeah" Kitty said swimming towards her and saw the small elixir. "that´s the love potion?"
"that´s right" Morgana said handing her the bottle. "with a drop of this…the prince will swap on your feet" Kitty nods and takes the bottle. "remember your promise…bring Marissa to my lair. Hmm…thinking clearly…I need more slaves…I want Marissa…and Melody"
"NO!" a female and sweet voice screamed. "PLEASE DON´T HURT HER! PLEASE!"
"what was that?" Kitty asked, looking everywhere.
"did you think that Ariel and Eric had drowned after falling from the rowboat eleven years ago?" Morgana asked with a wicked grin.
"that´s what I learned from King Triton and Queen Carole" Kitty inquired.
"MORGANA, I SWEAR IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO MY DAUGHTER, I WILL KILL YOU!" a male voice shouted. "YOU WON´T GET AWAY WITH IT!"
"Shut up!" Morgana shouted at the prisoners and then looked at the blonde. "Come with me, sweetie" she took Kitty´s arms and leaded her to a dungeon. Inside of it, it was a beautiful young girl with long red hair, white skin and blue eyes. Next to her; there was a handsome young man with black hair and blue eyes. She wore a green dress and a flower in her hair, while he was wearing a white shirt and blue pants. They were nothing more and nothing less than…Ariel and Eric.
"They are alive?!" Kitty asked shocked to see Ariel and Eric looked at the sea witch with fear.
"You´ll see, my dear" Morgana replied looking at her hostages. "Ariel and Eric really didn´t drown. I captured them and they are my prisoners all this years. I just make the king believe that his beloved youngest daughter and her husband had died in accident…just like his granddaughter…who grew up orphan" Ariel started crying uncontrollably as Eric hold her lovingly towards his chest and comforted her.
"Why are you doing this?" Ariel asked as tears stream down her face.
"Simple. Your husband killed my dear sister Ursula" Morgana replied looking at the Little Mermaid with contempt. "Then you will suffer the consequences. Say goodbye to your beloved daughter"
"No" Eric protested tearfully. "Please…stay away from our daughter"
"Please don´t hurt my Melody" Ariel pleaded crying. "Please"
"Too late, kids" Morgana said looking at them. "There´s nothing you can do about it. And Kitty…will help me to get what I want"
"How could you?!" Ariel shouted with tears looking at the blonde. "I trusted you…we all trusted you and you betrayed us!"
"Oh and that´s not all, dear Ariel" Morgan replied. "Your dear cousin Finn Hudson will be a daddy soon…and his little daughter will also be my slave" immediately afterwards, she let out an evil and diabolical laughter that make all the sea creatures get scared of her.
"How can you be so mean and hurt two innocent girls" Eric argued. "Leave my daughter and my niece alone. Do what you want with us" then he looked at Kitty. "and as for you…I hope you rot in hell"
"I´m sorry" Kitty said taking the bottle. "I have no choice"
"then you prefer to join Morgana and let her hurt the two people I love the most in this world?" my daughter and my niece?!" Ariel asked as more tears ran down her cheeks. "Wow…I never thought you could be sink so slow. SCREW YOU!"
"Enough!" Morgana said taking Kitty with her. "Kitty and I have a lot of work to do!"
"Shh" Eric cooed as he comforted his wife, who sobbed hysterically on his chest. "It´s okay, baby. Shh. We get out of here soon" Ariel continued sobbing as Eric kept holding her lovingly and kissed her on the head.
Days later; Rachel was walking down the school hallway when she saw Sarah was walking holding the books against her chest but looking down all the time.
"Sarah, wait!" Rachel said running after her. "we have to talk" she placed her hand on the girl´s shoulder.
"oh…hello, Rachel" Sarah replied stopping walking and shyly.
"please look at me" Rachel replied sweetly. The young blonde nodded and looked at her best friend. "I´m not mad at you"
"you should" Sarah replied sadly. "I didn´t know you and Finn…well…I actually wanted you to come to the museum with me because…they opened a gallery of Picasso, but…I invaded your privacy…I…it´s my fault"
"No, sweetie. It´s not your fault" Rachel said taking her hands in hers. "Just the next time, knock on the door, okay? So I can get ready and have no misunderstandings"
"I´m so sorry, Rachel" Sarah said shyly.
"I forgive you" Rachel said hugging her. "After all, you didn´t on purpose. You are innocent, plus…you are my best friend"
"You are mine too" Sarah replied smiling and hugging Rachel tightly.
"Hey um.." Rachel said when they parted the hug. "Do you want to sing with me in glee club?!
"Really?" Sarah asked with a smirk. "We´ve never sung together"
"Absolutely" Rachel said wrapping her arm around Sarah´s shoulder as they walk towards the choir room. "And I know the perfect song for the occasion"
[Scene changes to the choir room. Rachel is standing in the middle with Sarah, both of them smiling at the glee club. Finn looking at Rachel lovingly all the time. The glee members are smiling at the girls]
