This semester is harder than I expected. I am really falling behind in writing. I only have one more chapter prewritten. I will hopefully find time to write this weekend or it is going to be a while before another update comes. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story and sticking with it. I hope you can send some encouragement and maybe an idea if you please. Thank you for all the following. It means so much to me.

May 19th, 2015

Finn found himself driving. He ended up in Puck's driveway. Finn got out and knocked on his door. Puck said, "Hey dude. What is up? You look like your puppy just died."

Finn said, "They are gone. Rachel, Leroy and Arabella are on their way back to New York."

"Why didn't you go with them?"

"I don't have anything in New York. I need a job so that I can send Rach money to help with Arabella. I'm stuck here and my world is in New York."

"You could find a job in New York. They need cops in New York. I'm sure the chief would tell them about you and let you have a job."

"I don't know. It's scary."

"What is scarier: going to New York without anything to be with your girls or staying here and leaving them alone in the big city?"

"You are right. I just always thought that I would be here in Lima with you. You are my best friend."

"I'm still going to be your best friend no matter what. It doesn't matter if we aren't in the same city. But what if I went with you to New York?"

"What? You would do that?"

"Yeah. Beth and Shelby are in New York. I just had no reason to really try to get out of here. I want to be with my girl if at all possible."

"So, are we going to do this?"

Puck smiled. "We are so going to do this."

"Okay. I'm going to go pack. When is this going to go down?"

"I'm going to call Shelby now. I want to leave soon. I miss her."

"I'm going to go talk to my mom. I'll get her to help me pack. I guess I need to call Kurt and Blaine, too. They never called me back this week and never got to meet Arie."

"Then I guess we have some things to get ready."

"Thanks for going with me. I am so glad that you are my best friend."

"I feel ya man." Finn fist bumped him and was on his way back to his apartment.

Finn was almost to his apartment when his cell phone rang. He saw it was Kurt and said, "It's about time you called me back."

Kurt said, "I told you that Blaine and I were going on vacation for the week. I know that dad and Carole reminded you, too. What is going on?"

"You have missed a ton in the last week."

"Then fill me in."

"Quinn and I are over. Rachel came back. I have a daughter. I'm moving to New York."

"Whoa. Wait a minute! I need some details here."

"Quinn was a witch. She was the reason why Rachel left in the first place. Rachel came back and her dads were in an accident with Arabella our daughter. She has a cast, but she is okay. Hiram passed away. Rachel and Arabella went back to New York today with Leroy. I decided that I am going to move to New York to try and be the family that we were meant to be all along. Puck is going to come with me."

"Wow. I missed seeing the two little divas. I want to meet my niece."

"You would have if you would have called me back. She is perfect. She is two and a half. She is everything I thought my child would be and more. I love her, Kurt."

"Aww… You are such a dad. I can't wait to meet her."

"You and Blaine will have to come visit us in New York sometime soon. I really need to get off here. I still need to call mom, start packing and wait for Rachel to call."

"Blaine and I will come over and help you pack."

"I would really appreciate it. Thanks."

"Of course. We will be over to your apartment soon. Call Carole."

Finn told him goodbye and thank you one last time before hanging up.

Finn pulled up to his apartment and waited as the phone rang at his mom's house. Carole answered, "Hello?"

Finn said, "Hey mom."

"So they are gone?"

"Yeah."

"I'm sorry, Finny. When are you going to see them next?"

Finn cleared his throat. "That is actually why I wanted to call you."

"What is the matter, Finny?"

"After I dropped Rach, Leroy and Arabella off at the airport I went to see Puck. We kind of came to the decision that we are going to move to New York. Mom, I just can stand the idea of being so far away from Rach and Arie. Rach and I talked today and we are going to try us again. I don't think we can do that properly if we are that far apart."

Carole sniffled. "I imagined you would do this. I am going to miss having you so close, but I understand. You need to be there for your baby girl. She needs her daddy and I know Rachel needs you, too."

"I'm glad you understand. I am going to miss you so much, mom."

"Hey. It's not like we won't see each other. That just gives me an excuse to go to New York and see Arabella more often."

Finn chuckled. "I see how it is. I'm just an excuse to see the kid."

"Oh stop it! She is my grandbaby. I want to see her ever so often."

"I know mom. I was just messing with you. Thank you for supporting me through all of this. I hate that New York is so far away, but I'll go anywhere and do anything I have to do to be with Rachel."

"That is true love. The two of you are meant to be together. I'm so happy you are finding your way back to each other."

"Me too. I really need to start packing. Blaine and Kurt are coming over to help."

"Burt and I will come over, too. It isn't going to be easy to pack so quickly and I know you want to get there as soon as you can."

"Thanks, mom. I'm going to call my chief and see if he can talk to someone in New York for me."

"Go ahead and do that. We are on our way over. We will bring you some boxes and be there to help."

"You guys are the best. Thank you so much." Finn told his mom goodbye and went on to call the chief.

Finn couldn't believe how things were falling into place. It was like it was destiny the way that everything was coming together so quickly. He was packing things up along with Blaine, Kurt, Burt and his mom. He pulled out his phone and said, "Oh guys! You haven't seen a picture of Arabella yet."

Kurt eagerly clapped his hands together and said, "Let me see! Let me see!"

Finn chuckled as he showed him his phone. He said, "Here she is."

Kurt took the phone and held it between him and Blaine. He said, "Finn, she is a mini you. It is ridiculous."

Finn smiled. "She is beautiful. She is absolutely perfect."

"I can't wait to meet her and dress her."

"I figured that would be the first thing you would want to do. I'm sure she would love that. She is only two and a half, but she is just like Rachel."

"Does she wear those awful animal sweaters, too?"

The room filled with laughter. "No. She is adorable."

"Good."

"Stop it."

Carole said, "I can't believe that everything is coming together so quickly for you. That is amazing."

"Someone is really looking out for me. I'm meant to be with my girls. The chief knows the chief in New York and that he would put in a good word for me."

"That is great, Finny."

Finn's cell phone rang and he knew it was Rachel. He got up from the group and went to talk to Rachel. He wasn't going to tell her that he was coming to New York. He wanted to make sure that it all worked out first.

Finn answered, "Hello?"

He could practically hear Rachel smiling through the phone. She said, "Hey baby."

"Hey pretty lady. How was the flight?"

"It was good. Arie had a blast. The only problem was when her ears popped. It's all good now. Daddy is getting her dressed for bed. Then I thought the two of us could tell her goodnight together."

Finn smiled. "I would really like that."

"She can't stop talking about you. She misses you so much."

"I know the feeling. I miss her, too. I miss you."

"I miss you, too. I wish you were here with us. I shouldn't have come back. We should have stayed there with you. That is where Arie needs to be. She needs to be with her daddy. I need to be with her daddy."

"Oh, Rach. It's okay. You are where you need to be. I'll come up to visit soon. We are going to make this work. We promised ourselves and we promised Arie."

"I know. I just don't know if I can do it."

"Give it a week and we will see where we are then. We'll talk every day. I'm not going to go back on that."

"Good. There is someone here that wants to talk to you."

Finn then heard, "Daddy!" He could hear the excitement in her voice no matter how far away he was.

He said, "Hey baby girl. Did you have fun on the plane?"

"Yeah! Plane was high!"

Finn chuckled. "I bet it was. I miss you so much, sweetheart."

"Mes you, daddy!"

"Are you being a good girl for mommy?"

"Yeah. Me good girl."

"Good. I love you so much, Arabella."

"Wuv you!"

Finn heard Rachel said, "It's time for bed, sweet cheeks. What about daddy stays on the phone with us and sings to you, too?"

Arabella exclaimed, "Yay!"

Finn and Rachel sang Faithfully to Arabella. When they were done Finn could hear the phone shuffling a little and he knew that Rachel was putting her in bed under her covers.

Rachel quietly said, "She is out. I'm so glad we could do that."

Finn replied, "Me too. I love you, Rach. I miss you so dang much it hurts."

"I know how you feel. I am falling for you all over again."

"That is a good sign for me."

Rachel chuckled. "Yes, I guess it is. I really wish you were here."

"I don't know when, but I can promise you that I will be there soon."

"You better be. I have to go. I'm going to help daddy get settled. I'll talk to you tomorrow."

"I'll be looking forward to it. I'm so glad you called, Rach."

"Of course." The two of them said goodbye and goodnight before hanging up the phone.

Finn walked back in the living room. Carole asked, "Did you tell Rachel that you are coming to New York?"

"No. I want to surprise her and I want to make sure that everything works out."

"She is going to blow a gasket when you show up in New York."

Finn chuckled. "And I can't wait. It is really going to happen. I'm going to be with my girls." Finn spent the rest of the night with his family and packing up his apartment.
