Author's Note: I really like writing this, but I really need everyone who reads this to review. If I don't get at least 5 reviews, I might discontinue this story. If you want a picture of Elena, she looks like Nikki Reed, but the Vampire version of her.

Enjoy!

All Rachel could do was nod.

"Y-Yeah, I r-remember," she stuttered through her words.

"Yeah...So you guys, this is Elena. My girlfriend," Finn said, introducing the blonde. Elena raised an eyebrow.

"Hello," Elena murmured.

"Hey," Quinn and Santana replied in unison.

"Quinn? Quinn Fabray?" Finn asked.

"Yes– but now it's Quinn Puckerman. Noah and I wed last year," Quinn whispered.

Finn stared. "O-Oh. Alright."

"C'mon Finn, we simply have to go to our dance lessons," Elena pleaded.

"Alright. Nice seeing you Rachel," Finn whispered, walking out with Elena.

"Is it me, or does Elena seem like a total bitch?" Santana asked Quinn and Rachel, raising an eyebrow.

"She's seems like a super bitch to me," Quinn agreed.

"Guys, we haven't even gotten to know her yet," Rachel said. "But I don't know if we'll even get the chance."

Quinn and Santana looked down and nodded sheepishly.

They all said goodbye, and Rachel walked home to her apartment.

She walked in and saw Josh reading. "Hey," he whispered, closing his book.

"Hey Josh." Rachel replied just as softly. Josh got up and kissed her cheek. She returned the kiss, but on the lips.

"Two months from now," he started, "I'll be the happiest man in the universe."

"M-Me too... but a girl," Rachel whispered, kissing his lips softly.

Finn and Elena had been taking dance lessons. They were only dating but getting more serious. Finn mostly liked their make-out sessions. He really cared about her smokin' hot body, but also because she was nice.

She always cared for others, and she was totally smart. Especially for a blonde.

Finn was dancing with her one day and realized something.

She was the one.

He knew, because he always got butterflies when he was with her. Elena smiled into his eyes as they danced together. Finally, when dance ended, they went to their apartment and changed.

They went to Olive Garden for a VIP dinner that Finn had organized. There he would propose.

They both got into a limo Finn rented, and drove off.

Rachel smiled at Josh, they were dancing together. It was dimly lit in their huge apartment. There was slow music (The River Flows In You), and candles.

Rachel looked simply beautiful.

Her hair was wavy, she had a French, Red, Designer Dress on, with black 5-inch heels. She also had on a diamond necklace Josh bought her.

She slowly rested her head on his shoulder.

"J-Josh?" Rachel whispered.

"Yes?" He responded.

"I love you," Rachel said, tears welling up in her eyes.

Josh smiled, and hugged her tight, "I love you too."

Just then, Rachel got a voicemail from Quinn.

Rachel! I was watching the news and there are gunmen at Olive Garden! Finn and Elena are there!

Just then, Rachel came out of her hug, and kissed Josh lightly. Josh, then, deepened the kiss with passion, until they were making out on the couch.

Finn grasped Elena's hand tightly, afraid to move.

"Elena," he whispered lightly. "I'm so sorry."

Elena showed a hopeful, frightened expression. "I love you, Finn Hudson," she whispered.

Hearing that, Finn showed her a small, black, velvet box. He then showed her a smile filled with love, hope, and passion.

The gunman walked in.

"Hello everyone. There is no need to be frightened," The voice said boredly, which sounded oddly familiar.

The gunman turned his head and stared straight at Finn.

It was David Karofsky. Go Figure.

"Well, well, well. Mr. Hudson got the perfect girl. Is that Quinn Fabray there?" Karofsky asked.

"No. I am Elena Rhodes. April Rhodes is my mother. You might know her," Elena whispered.

"Shut. Up," Karofsky demanded. "Do you think I give a damn who you are? I want money. Nothin' else."

Then he pointed the gun at Finn.

And pulled the trigger.

Finn screamed in pain, and fell to the ground. He could feel his blood pouring out of the hole the bullet had made.

Karofsky laughed evilly. Dramatically.

Elena was totally shocked, she was in love with Finn. She felt tears pouring down her cheeks. She got up and ran to Karofsky. She punched him upside the head and took the gun. Everyone cheered. Elena sniffled, and dropped the gun, then she checked to see if Karofsky was knocked out.

He was.

She dialed 9-1-1, for the ambulance.

Rachel woke up the next day at 8:30 A.M. She realized Josh was at work. After she had breakfast, her phone rang.

"Hello?" Rachel asked.

Rachel! Where were you?

"Quinn? What's the matter?" Rachel asked in distress.

Finn, he-he got shot last night! Didn't you check your messages?

Rachel had skipped it, and then forgotten to check again. "N-No. What happened? How did you find out?"

He told Kurt, and Kurt told me when he saw it on the news. Kurt's at the hospital with him now! Well in the waiting room, Finn just got out of surgery! Come down to Lima Family Care Hospital!

"I'll be there soon!" Rachel gasped, and hung up.

She quickly ran around, getting dressed and doing her makeup. She drove blurry eyed. She couldn't believe it. Her forgotten love was in the hospital. At least she'd get to comfort him, and be there for him.

She walked into the hospital, and waiting in line. When it was finally her turn, the lady said, "How may I help you?"

Rachel sniffled a bit. "Finn Hudson, please."

"He just got out of surgery, go up to the third floor waiting room please," the lady answered.

Rachel whispered a "thank you so much!", and then ran upstairs.

She saw Quinn, Santana, Kurt, Mercedes, Brittany, and Elena sitting. She hugged Quinn, and sniffled. She walked up to Elena.

"Hi Elena, how is Finn doing?" Rachel asked warmly.

"He's doing... fine. He got shot in the liver. They removed a small portion of it," Elena explained. Rachel pulled Elena into a hug.

"Well, hello," Rachel said to the rest of her old Glee Club.

Kurt showed a small wave. Santana and Brittany smiled at her.

"The friends and family of Finn Hudson may now go in," a lady in white said. Rachel ran in, anxious.

"Finn," Rachel whispered. But she didn't see the new, matured Finn. She saw the Frankenteen himself. She bit a tear back. Elena looked at her oddly, and ran to hug Finn.

Finn lifted his arms into a warm hug. Rachel was thinking.

Finally everyone left to get rest, but Rachel. She walked up to Finn.

"How are you feeling?" Rachel asked.

"Not well, but I'm holding out," Finn said.

"You're dying?" Rachel gasped.

"No, I mean, it hurts, but I'm blocking the pain."

Rachel nodded, "Well If I may, I'd like you show you something I put together."

She started to sing.

Its been quite a long year
Like were being tested
To face all our fears
Finally your mind will get some rest
And you'll feel much better

When you're laying on my chest
Ill keep you right by my side
I feel you breathing
Close your tired eyes


Goodnight, my love,
I feel you drifting
Goodbye, my best friend,
This ain't no kinda living
Goodnight, my love
And I hold you one more time
Until tomorrow

But objects in the rear view mirror
Are closer than they seem
There's no use grasping
When things are out of reach

Goodnight, my love,
I feel you drifting
Goodbye, my best friend,
This ain't no kinda living
Goodnight, my love
And I hold you one more time until tomorrow

Inside I'm dying
I don't wanna let you go,
We work so hard at
Outside I'm crying
My heart wont admit
What my mind already knows

And its getting light outside
I guess Ill get up,
Put on my clothes
And kiss you one more time
So close your tired eyes

Goodnight, my love,
I feel you drifting
Goodbye, my best friend,
This ain't no kinda living
Goodnight, my love
At least I held you one last time before
Tomorrow...

Rachel finished then whispered, "It's my way of saying keep in contact this time."

Finn smiled sleepily. "It was lovely, Rachel."

"Thank you, and I meant it," Rachel admitted. "I think I have to go."

Finn nodded, understanding. "Goodbye, Rachel."

And that ends a longer chapter. Hurrah! IF YOU DON'T REVIEW I WILL EAT YOU. Please, Please! :[ I need to know if you want something to happen.
