Chapter 3 : Realization

I'm really sorry about the lack of updates, but with summer school and social service it's been crazy, I've been writing on my bus rides and minutes off on a notebook but I haven't had the time to actually sit and write, but next week it's my last for uni so I should have some free time :)

If you find spelling or grammar errors please do let me know

I hope you don't hate me or Finn at this point, I have a plan you might also noticed I'm using both characters POV for this chapter instead of just one like last chapters, let me know what you think

again I don't own glee or the characters

He was there, lying in bed with the perfect small girl in his arms, her left hand and her head were resting on his chest while his thumb playfully made circles over her bare shoulder, he couldn't get enough of her soft skin against his, it was as close to heaven as he could be and wanted to stay like that forever, the feel of the warm air that came out of her perfect mouth as she breathed at an even pace was all he seemed to need, she was unaware of the fact his full attention was to her, he fought the need to trace her angel like features with his fingers with the fear of waking her up, he closed his eyes instead, falling in to a deep wonderful sleep, with the girl he loved in his arms...

Her hands started to move his hair playfully in her attempt to wake him up. He just smiled and kept his eyes shut, maybe it wasn't a dream after all...
"Finn" she whispered and his eyes opened to the disappointment of the voice he did not expected to hear, but managed to keep his smile, the least he wanted is to see her confused and disappointed
"I didn't want to wake you, you looked so peaceful" she stopped for a second getting closer "but I figured you wouldn't want to miss work" she said almost whispering and gave him a peck in the lips, and before she pulled away completely he held her close giving her a deep kiss, one that could make him feel less guilty for wanting an other girl, for dreaming about someone different, he loved Lauren but still it wasn't her, and that made him crazy all the time, it was wrong and he knew it, so why wasn't he stopping?

She pulled away with a big smile, ran her hand through his hair one more time and started to head out the room " I'll make us some coffee" she added with a little wink.

He kept his smile straight until he was sure she was out the room, he ran his hands from his face to his hair in frustration, he had to stop, he really had to try and move on completely, he headed to take a shower, his head attacking him with thoughts, he had to stop dreaming about her, and hoping Rachel would knock on his door, and ask him to take her back, that wasn't happening and it was about time to deal with that, she clearly moved on, and he had to do it for him, for Lauren, he closed his fist and hit the wall lightly in frustration, and allowed himself to cry one last time for her.

The aroma of fresh made coffee and eggs now as feeling the apartment, he walked to the tiny and looked to the pretty girl cooking completely unaware he was now watching, he approached her slowly and took her by the waist, and she let herself go turning off the stove as she turned around to face him

"I don't know what's up with you today, but I like it" she said playfully as she pulled him close to kiss him, the moment they pulled out the kiss, he just looked in to her beautiful green eyes and just like that, without even thinking the words came out

"We should move in together" he blurted out, she was completely taken off ward, surprised in a good way, she had been hinting for a couple of months now for them to move in together, but he'd been playing dumb, now he realized how stupid he was trying to stop the inevitable

"I mean" he continued "we spend many nights together anyway and..." she just gave him a big smile placing her arms around his neck kissing him deeply before he could even finish his sentence he held her up and pulled her in to the bedroom.

The curtains of her room flew open letting the sun soak the room with light, She turned and covered her face with her duvet as an attempt to block the light.
"Rachel"
Right now she was not interested on what anyone had to say she was just really tired, she grunted and kept her eyes shut trying to remember her happy place, the only place she wanted to be right now and the only place she couldn't get to, not even if she wanted to, it took her a while to process the fact that someone was actually in her apartment, she opened her eyes and took the cover away from her face to find the black haired girl staring at her with disgust

"Come on, Get up" Cam said as she tried to pull her out of bed, but Rachel wasn't moving, she didn't really wanted to, and how in the world did she got inside in the first place?

"excuse me, but how in the world did you got in?" she asked stubbornly

"emergency key" was the simple reply she got out of her friend

"and may I ask what would be the emergency?" she was pretty sure the place was not in fire

"You" Cam said moving to her drawers pulling out some clean clothes out for her

"Me?" she asked not believing what she was hearing

"Yes" Cam continued moving around the room picking up the little mess she managed to make "I mean for the last three days you've been like a hermit!"

"I think I'm allowed to stay in if I want to!, I'm on my vacation remember?" of course the look on her friends face was telling her there was no way she was getting out of this, but seriously what was the big deal, she wasn't hurting anyone, she just didn't really feel like going out

"Vacation it's supposed to be a period when you can have fun, enjoy and relax, I'm not about to let you sulk the rest of it" the girl replied looking at her to the eye, she knew her too well for her own good

"I'm NOT sulking" she replied with the hope she'd believe her, Cam gave her a look and sat next to her

"You need some acting classes girl, now, please tell me, what's wrong"

"It's nothing really" truth to be told, even though Cam was truly her best friend, she was not quite ready to spill the hole drama that her past could be, she was just embarrassed of even admit it all, she took a look at the disappointed girl next to her...

"Fine then, get dressed, we are going out" Cam said as she headed out the room leaving Rachel alone again, she avoided her thoughts got out of bed and started to get ready

She left the room finding Cam sitting on the couch looking at some book in her lap, the girl just looked up for a second pointing out at the plate with fruit on the table

"You are too good for me" Rachel pointed out acknowledging her friend, who didn't seem to think she was more interesting than whatever got her attention this time.

"Please tell me you got rid of that" Cam said with amused voice and that's when she realized what was truly more interesting that her, she rushed by her side trying to take her sophomore year thunderclap out of her hands (she took it out the night before longing for those days when her life seemed simpler), but Cam was too fast for her

"Rachel, come on, I already know you were not popular in High School and I love you regardless, just tell me you got rid of that thing" Cam pointed to a picture where she was wearing one of her signature animal sweaters, she blushed thinking her dads may had kept many of her old clothes in their basement

"Yes I did" she lied "and for the record, they weren't so bad" Cam laughed and moved through the pages
"let's check your signatures" Rachel freaked out, she didn't even got to that part the day before, at least there were some on there, Cam went through most of them and then she finally got to the one she feared the most:

I wish I could write you something better and stuff, But I guess you already know I'm not good with words, you are awesome Rachel and like the most talented girl I know, I hope you know I really meant what I said at Regionals – Finn

"interesting, who's this Finn guy and what did he said at Regionals?" Cams question made her nervous, she felt stupid for feeling this much for a guy she hadn't seen in years, and she didn't really wanted to face it all just yet
"he just said I'd make it to Broadway or something" she mumbled trying to avoid the topic "where are we going anyway?" she asked trying to distract Cam from the stupid yearbook

"Shopping, because tonight, we have a date"
"we?" the look on Cam's eyes told her she wasn't going to escape of this one, she wasn't in a mood for a blind date, but she figured she owed her this one, one night wouldn't hurt.

please let me know what you think!

I know their stories are quite apart somehow but they'll come together soon :)
