A/N: Hi and thank you all so much for the response to this reworked story. There is about 8 chapters in this one and the 2nd part 'I wanted it to be me!' that will also be getting an overhaul, so I hope you will stay with me. Again, thanks for reading and please if you have a minute leave a review.

Chapter 3:

After her Doctors had been, and put Rachel through a seemingly endless battery of tests, she was resting as comfortably as could be expected with bulky casts on her leg and arm. Thankfully no memory loss was apparent as she had been asked all sorts of questions from her past and the present, so, all there was to do now was heal.

Dr. Metcalf came in to Rachel's private room and showed us all the brain scans and x-rays on the screen attached to the wall.

"Well good news Rachel, everything is looking good there is no apparent damage to your brain, but just to make sure we haven't missed anything I'd like to keep you with us till the day after tomorrow. Providing everything goes OK overnight. Then we'll give you another check-up and you should be good to go. There will be Physiotherapy appointments once your casts come off but for the next 6 weeks you have to be still… no dancing!"

We all laughed at the look on Rachel's face when Dr. Metcalf said that, but she smiled and rolled her eyes at us then said. "But Artie is in a wheelchair and he dances all the time."

"I know babe but he also can use both arms." We all laughed again when Rach looked down at her arm in the solid bright pink cast, sighing and nodding, but smiling at the same time

Mr. Berrys' and I thanked him for bringing Rachel back to us.

"I didn't really do anything, Rachel obviously had things to do and wasn't going to give in, good luck with everything guys, I'll see you tomorrow Rachel." Dr. Metcalf left us alone then.

"Oh, Poppet we are so relieved you are alright, we don't know what we would do if we lost you." Rachel started to cry at the emotion her Dads were finally letting go and was suddenly sandwiched between them. Then after about fifteen minutes of urging bordering on nagging from their tiny daughter Hiram and Leroy, left to get the house ready and get some much need relaxing sleep.

I sat on the bed cuddled up with Rachel and we talked about everything that had happened. "It was Quinn that had hurt you and the Police told me she would most probably be sent to Juvie for a time. I promise Rach to do anything and everything I can from now on to protect you because you mean the world to me." With tears silently sliding down my cheeks I was trying to get my words together so she understood, how deep my feelings for her are. "I wanted to die myself when I saw you covered with bandages and those casts…then when they aid your brain might be damaged. I didn't care what happened to me coz without you Rachel I'm nothing."

Her little face crumpled with sadness when I said that, "Oh Finn, don't you ever say things like that again because I can't imagine a world without you in it. My feelings for you are just as strong and you have to promise never ever leave me."

I cuddled her closer, well as close as I could with the tube from the drip in her un-casted arm, I just needed to be close and feel her heartbeat.

"You know babe, while I've been waiting for you to wake up, I've been doing some serious thinking you wanna hear it?"

"Of course, everything you do is important to me Finn."

"Thanks Rach well, I know your future is in New York and Broadway, and I want my future, to be with you, I want to join the New York Fire Department, I have sent away for an information package and was just waiting to hear back. I am just hoping my grades will be good enough."

"Finn, please you know I will help you with anything you struggle with, but I know you can do it. I am so proud of you for thinking about a career that can make such a difference to people. Although even if you wanted to stay in Lima and be a construction worker, gardener or even a tire mechanic, I would still love and be proud of you. I hope you know that, if you're happy doing what you love then I'll be happy. But being together, in New York it would be like a dream come true for me."

We shared a sweet kiss, then Rach bit her lip nervously

"Um… I was asleep I thought I was hearing things, because I swear I could hear you telling me something about planning a wedding were you serious?"

"Yes! Rach, I am! I know we are still very young and at school but you are my future, and I can't think of anything I want more than to be with you for the rest of my life, do you know what I see when we kiss?"

She shakes her head, and tightens her grip on my hand.

I smiled at her I could see it as clear as day, "being each other's best friends and helping the other one deal with whatever life throws at us, stages on Broadway, standing ovations, me waiting at the end of a flower covered aisle praying you don't change your mind. Your body round and glowing with a baby made from our love, a little girl that looks just like you, maybe a little boy with my dorky dimples and bad dancing abilities. A yard covered in toys, even a real family Christmas with lights and snowmen, and everyone I love most in the world gathered around the tree just happy being together surrounded by love."

Her eyes had gone all misty while I was speaking, and she tightly grabbed my hand and in the softest voice said, "Oh Finn, that is what I see too and there is no way I'd change my mind, I would be pulling my Dads down that aisle wanting to get to you as quickly as possible, I love you and your dimples baby forever."

Our lips met then, in a hard kiss, which I think used up all the energy she had because she was beginning to fall asleep in my arms.

"Baby you look exhausted why don't you go home and rest? I will be OK I promise."

I shook my head "I'm good here baby."

She pouted and gave me her puppy dog eyes "Well if you won't go home, at least have a shower and a decent feed."

"OK Miss Berry if it will make you happy." I took off for the bathroom, shocked when I looked in the mirror, the guy staring back didn't even look like me. I looked like I had aged 20 years, my face was covered in a scruffy beard, there were dark rings under my eyes the rest of my face was tired and gaunt looking. Now I come to think about it I really was famished. Forty-five minutes later, all refreshed and fed I was back cuddled around Rach, my heart complete and mind at peace I fell asleep the instant my head hit the pillow.

It took two trips to the car with all the flowers, balloons and soft toys, the day we took Rachel home. Her Dads had set up the downstairs lounge for her so there were no stairs to worry about while she was in a wheelchair.

"Thank you everyone for caring so much and spending your free time at the hospital and for helping my Dads and Finn, you have no idea how much that means to me, so what do you say we all get together on Friday or Saturday for a movie night?"

A chorus of,

"Yeah",

"You bet",

"Can't wait, I'll bring popcorn"

Was heard followed by beaming smiles and tight goodbye hugs from everyone as they filed out the door.

Now that Rachel was out of the hospital, and safe at home I could relax. I had decided to get a job to help with college. Kurt had mentioned his Dad needed some help at his tire shop and would recommend me. I went down to Hummel Tire and Lube, the next morning and was given a job straight away. I knew Rachel would be okay with her Dad's and my Mom being there, plus the Glee kids took turns to keep her company. My working day began at 8am until 2pm; I was pretty much living with the Berrys' while Rachel was recovering.

*OoOoOo*

By the time the first month of summer was done, everything was great Rachel was just about all healed, the cast on her arm had come off a week ago, the bruising had faded to a couple of yellow patches on her ribs and the leg cast was due to be removed in two more weeks. My job at the tire shop was good I was learning heaps, it was messy work but it was good to learn new skills, the other guys at the shop were nice and very helpful. Mr Hummel said I was a great worker and picked up the different jobs quickly.

Today when I got home after work, Rach was sitting on the porch swing. I felt so grown up coming home after a day at work to be met by the love of my life, she gave me a deep kiss and meaningful looks that gave the impression she wanted more. We haven't mentioned the subject of sex yet, for the obvious reason that Rachel was still sore and had a cast, but I could tell we both felt like it would happen soon.

"Hi, you look so handsome and grown up plus I am really digging the messy look" she says.

"Hi to you too gorgeous" once I get my breath back then lean down for another kiss. "Did you have a good day?" Giving her a hug and trying not to get grease over her from my coveralls.

"Yes, it was ok, I missed you though" she said with a pout.

"Aw, babe don't be sad I'm home now, just let me go have a shower and we can sit and talk or watch a movie or maybe a walk to the park till dinner time", another kiss and I headed off for the shower after helping her back inside to the couch.

She had decided a trip to the park was what she wanted, the fresh air and sunshine was just the thing to lift her spirits I knew she was getting tired of being house bound, so I tried to find fun things for us to do together. The park was great there were kids running all around, families having picnic's, birds chirping it was busy but relaxing at the same time. I spread a blanket under a shady tree and lifted Rachel out of her wheelchair and sat her down, after I had made myself comfy resting my back against the tree's rough trunk, she maneuvered herself between my legs and wrapped my arms around her tummy. We just sat watching everything for a little while until she started talking.

"Finny?"

"Hmm?"

"Do you think we are ready to have sex yet?"

"I looked down at her and saw nervousness in her eyes and by the way she had bit her bottom lip I could tell the question was bothering her.

"I know I am in love with you, and want to spend the rest of my life with you and of course I want to take our relationship to the next level, whenever you are ready, but with you, but it will be making love, I won't put any pressure on you, we have plenty of time to get to the good stuff." I winked at her and pressed a little kiss to the tip of her nose.

After I finished speaking her eyes were shiny with unshed tears, she reached her tiny hand to cup my cheek and pull my face down to her so her lips could attach themselves to mine in a deep probing kiss. I felt her tongue run over my bottom lip asking for entrance I complied straight away, and then when our tongues connected I felt heat rip through my body and pool beneath my belt. My shorts feeling uncomfortably tight, I rolled over without losing contact with, or squishing the tiny girl underneath me. As we turned my hand brushed over her breast and I heard a whimper and my name whispered in a breath that made my heart sing. I slowly moved my hand to gently squeeze her, our mouths were still connected.

I breathed out in a puff, "Oh Rach, baby I am so in love with you."

Her tiny hands had found their way under my shirt and were rubbing my back and moving over my sides to my stomach. I felt one of them slide past my belt to gently rub the straining bulge in my pants. Her softer than air whisper that returned my words, had me melting and boiling at the same time, but sadly I had to break the intense kiss as a lack of air, was becoming an issue among other things.

"Baby, we have slow down" I managed to breathe out "we can't do stuff like this in the park."

With a pout, she says "Ok but I really want to continue this; I think my Dads said they will be out late tonight."

"Ok baby girl let's get you home." We got ourselves together and started for home, when we got there we found a note from Dads saying they would be going straight to their dinner meeting from work, and not to worry about dinner for them, and they should be home around Midnight, but they had left some money for us to get takeout.

After we decided on and ordered some Chinese to be delivered, we just made ourselves comfy on the couch, after changing into our pyjamas we caught up with the pile of recorded TV shows Rach had missed while in the hospital. Both thinking about the next step in our physical relationship continuing from what was started at the park. I was nervous because I was so big and clumsy and Rachel so tiny I was worried that when we got to the making love stage I would somehow end up squashing her, and so concerned I would hurt her I mean I'm not a small guy and my penis is in proportion to my size, and well Rach is tiny so I suppose her lady parts are as well. I know the first time for a girl can be painful, I remember that much from health class, I hope I don't spoil it for her, I want it to be special and not hurt her too much, I'd never forgive myself if I ruined our first time.

After we ate and cleaned up the rubbish we settled down to watch a movie. Halfway through I felt a tiny hand move below my waist and gently rub me, making me slowly harden.

My breath stopped and I stammered "R- Rach?"

"I want to see you" she says, "I can feel it and want to help you… it must be uncomfortable."

I didn't know what to do I mean the couch isn't really the best place for this, what if her dads came home early or something. "Why don't we go to my room it will be more private and comfortable for you" I said.

She nodded and bit her lip. I carried her bridal style upstairs and gently laid her against my pillows, I was breathless, she looked stunning with her hair spread over the white pillows and falling over her shoulders, her legs were straight out in front, her perfect butt covered in not much more than a tiny pair of sleep shorts, her top half in a lacy, thin strapped tank top.

I could hold back no longer, I just had to kiss her, it was a deep longing kiss; as soon as our lips connected I felt her nibble on my bottom lip with her teeth. I sucked on her tongue and rubbed my hand over her breast, my thumb gliding over her hard nipple. The moan that escaped her throat went straight to my already aroused dick turning me on even more.

"Oh, baby you are so beautiful, can I take your top off please?"

She just nodded shyly and bit her bottom lip, her big brown eyes locked on me, God! It was so sexy when she did that. Very gently I gripped the bottom of the shirt and slid it carefully up and off her body. Placing little kisses all the way, when I got back up to her mouth, I pressed my lips against hers again and when air was needed I pulled away and just lost myself in the deepest pools of chocolate I'd ever seen. They were so full of love and trust it brought tears to my eyes to know that someone as perfect as Rachel could feel that way about me. I placed my lips back onto her silky skin, and moved them in slow motion kisses down her throat and over her collarbone, around to her ear then sucked on the pulse point just under her chin. I was sure I'd left a mark but I couldn't help it, my passion was so strong!

Rachel kept moaning and whispering my name while rubbing her hands all over my back, gripping my hair in her little fists. I lifted my face up for a second to breathe and she quickly took control by attacking my neck, sucking and biting a spot then running her tongue over to soothe the mark. I kissed down to her chest and my mouth found a supple breast. My hand found her other one and began to squeeze it and gently pinch her nipple, rubbing it between my forefinger and thumb till it became a hard bud.

We were both panting and whispering words of love to each other. I was so hard it was getting painful pressed against Rach's thigh, she must have felt it too because in an instant she had managed to flip us over. I scooted up to lean against the headboard and held her against my stomach whispering "I love you so much" and lent down for another kiss. She reached up and connected our lips. Her hand slipped between us to undo the tie on my sleep shorts tugging them down my hips which I lifted slightly to help her.

"Oh my" she said when she saw me in all my glory for the first time. "It's so big" she whispered her eyes were as big as saucers.

I felt my face blush a deep shade of red and puffed out "and only for you, forever baby."

She pulled herself back up my body all the while pressing herself against me, and took hold of my T-shirt to pull it over my head I had to help as she was too little to reach. When it was off and thrown across the room, she wriggled back down to my stomach and was busy placing butterfly kisses all over my body. My eyes closed and my head fell back against the pillows, I was in heaven I'd never felt anything this good before in my life, my breathing was ragged and uneven. Then suddenly, my eyes shot open, as I felt her tiny hand wrap around my hard length. "Rach?"

She just looked up at me with her big, beautiful brown eyes over flowing with love. Slowly she moved her hand up and down, rubbing her thumb over the tip spreading the moisture that had leaked out over my length. The next thing that registered was her warm wet mouth enclosing my rock-hard dick and gently sucking, first the tip, then sliding up and down till I hit the back of her throat. My hands slid into her hair while moaning her name.

"Oh God! Baby that feels so good!"

I was trying not to push down on her head because I didn't want to choke her but she kept going, her hand grasping my balls and massaging them while still swirling her tongue around me. She came up for air and was just licking me up and down as though I was an ice cream cone. I couldn't take much more and panted out,

"Rach, babe I'm going to cum."

She just smiled at me and covered me with her mouth again. Her eyes connecting with mine the whole time; I felt myself touch the back of her throat and couldn't hold back. I shot my load straight down her throat. After what seemed like ages I came down and just pulled her up to my face kissing her so hard I'm sure she will have bruised lips.

"That was the best thing I have ever felt I love you so much baby."

"I have to say Finn, for a first time it was pretty good for me too I am so wet now!"

"Well Miss Berry I can help you if you want" I said with a smirk and raised eyebrow.

"I want Mr Hudson, very much please… I love you", she pants out.

"Well first let's get you out of these wet pants we wouldn't want you to catch a chill, now would we?" I said with a cheeky smile that showed my dimples.

She shook her head and mouthed out a no, I slowly pulled her little shorts and panties down her endless legs being careful getting past the cast. When she was fully naked all the breath left my body in a rush I had never seen anyone so beautiful and perfect. I know I had seen her in the hospital but this was an entirely different situation. I pulled her up a bit higher on the bed and lay on my stomach between her open legs. I slowly kissed her mouth and moved my lips in slow motion all over her neck and over her breasts; I sucked a nipple into my mouth and very gently tugged on it. I switched and gave the other one the same attention, making a trail of kisses and little nips towards her stomach swirling my tongue, around and inside her belly button.

Her body twitched and her breathing was shallow. I looked up at her face and saw nothing but trust in her eyes; 'I love you' she mouthed at me. My lips moved of their own accord down to her secret place. My tongue found its way into her moist folds and swiped up towards the little button hidden away. As soon as my lips found it Rachel arched off the bed her voice coming out in gasps.

"FINNY don't stop, what are you doing, OH, baby please I need more!"

I was more than happy to accommodate her so I kept doing what she asked of me, I pushed my tongue inside and swirled it about a bit. I sucked on the magic button and at the same time I pushed slowly one finger inside and rubbed her, after a little while I added another finger and scissored them. I had to press my other hand onto her tummy to keep her still. I could feel her squeezing my fingers so tightly, her breathing was ragged and suddenly, she lets out a loud squeal of

"OH MY GOD FINNNNY" and squirted her juices all over my hand.

I slowly pulled my fingers out and licked them clean, while maintaining eye contact I moved back up to kiss her lips, she moaned into my mouth as she could taste her own essence. Her tiny hands gripped my shoulders so tightly, she wrapped her good leg around my waist and said, in the sexiest voice I have ever heard "Thank you baby I am so in love with you can do that anytime you like."

"You are more than welcome" I whispered, "I love you too more than anything; you are my everything you know that don't you? Sleep now baby your dads will be home soon and you will have to go back to your own bed."

She pouted at me but snuggled into my chest, her soft cheek resting over my heart and fell asleep. I was trying to get my head around the intense feeling swirling throughout my body; I didn't want her to go to her bed but knew she had to. Her dads were cool and all but I wasn't sure they would want to come home and find us in this position, so I set the alarm on my phone to wake us in plenty of time to get ourselves organised so they would be not able to tell what we had been doing. Before I dozed off I made a mental note to stop at the pharmacy and buy some condoms after work tomorrow, because I knew we would be using them sooner rather than later, and there was no way I wasn't going to risk getting Rachel pregnant, and anyway being a man is all about taking responsibility for my actions. Sex should be a mutual decision between adults so protection should be too, I don't want to spoil our future by having a baby now, that step is years down the track.

I know if Puck or some of the other guys could hear me talking all adult like they would laugh, but I seriously don't care what they think.

Once I helped redress her, I carried a still half-asleep Rach back to her own bed about 11pm, smiling and chuckling at the pout, sleepy lip smacking and mumbled words from my girl, I left her with a soft kiss on her lips. Back in my bed I spent a few minutes reliving the feelings of Rachel's mouth and hands all over my body, which then got me so hard again I had to think of horrible things to lose my hard on. Finally, I fell asleep and my dreams were filled with my ONE! My Rachel, the most perfect girl in my universe.
