Disclaimer: I do not own glee
Rachel and Jesse had spent the entire night watching their old favourite films; crying, laughing and enjoying each other's company like they had never been apart. Eyes would flicker over once and a while, bodies would lean sideways and lips would lips, arms and legs drawing closer together. What else could they ask for really? It everything was just perfect.
Dinner was served on a pizza box, which was hungrily devoured by mouths that were starving, filling stomachs with satisfaction. Desert was a simple dish that had been nicely catered for by the big white appliance in the kitchen. Life was definitely perfect. With their bellies full, their favourite show on the tube, they fell asleep in one another's arms, a big smile showing how happy they both were.
(One a.m. in the morning)
She looked on at the sleeping figure next to her, a big smile plastered all over her face. She could get use to this most definitely. Why hadn't it ever felt this great when she was with Finn? She inched closer to him and fell back to sleep once again.
He opened his eyes and for a second panic went through his mind as he slowly remembered where he was and who he was with. She was leaning right into him. Boy was it perfect or what? He could die right now. Eyes closed and breathing became uneven.
They didn't hear Rachel's fathers come home from a late night shindig from work they had to attend to that night, nor did they feel the blanket that was gentle splayed over them to keep them warm. The gesture felt so natural and warmed the hearts of the two elder males as they crept up the stairs to their bedroom; eyeing each other happily that there daughter was back with her perfect match.
One last glance and they disappeared into their rooms, chatters of excitement to come.
Finn's bedroom
"Sorry Finn. Her boyfriend didn't leave her sight all night. He slept over there" Rachel's neighbour relayed to Finn at one am in the morning.
"Thanks man. Appreciate the Intel" Finn said with great disappointment, as he went to bed and had the worse sleep in such a long time.
Her father's never let him stay the night. They always made sure he was out of their by eight o'clock the latest or they would wake up the young couple and send him on his way. He realised that they just tolerated him for the sake of their daughters. That was okay he guess. At least they let him date her in the first place he reasoned to himself.
Sleep finally engulfed him until his alarm rang at five-thirty am.
He groaned. He had a total of two hours sleep. He was going to be a zombie today. He groaned again and forced himself to the bathroom.
Rachel POV
"Hey sleepy head" she whispered into his ear, having woken up two hours earlier than she usually did. she was so excited to wake up next to him.
She watched as he opened one eye and then the other, seeing the confusion on his face about his whereabouts, she smiled to herself.
"Hey beautiful" he murmured sleepily and hugged her close, slowly waking up.
"Hrmm I love this. Waking up to you like this. I could get use to this" she said and kissed him on the nose. A big grin spread across his face at her actions. She beamed even more.
"Hrmm definitely could get use to this" he echoed. "Strawberries" her scent wafted towards him, making him dizzy with love and warmth in his belly.
She giggled and let him kiss her sleepily on the lips. Definitely a great way to wake up, she thought to herself.
Jesse POV
'Could this moment get any better?' he asked himself as she kissed him back so sweetly it blew his mind away. He knew that this is exactly where he was meant to be. Flunking out of college brought her to this moment.
Now all he had to do was begin his way back in to showmance. He would approach Mister Shuester with his plan of helping them all out, which he knew that jerk face would go bat shit over, which made him smirk so big.
"What is that smirk for Mister St James?" she knew it could only mean something was brewing in that beautiful curly locks.
"Oh just wondering about the showmance consultant thing I was telling you about during the prom dinner we had with Sam and Mercedes. I want to ask Mister Shuester if he could be my first job. What do you think? I want your honest opinion now!" he looked her straight in her eyes so he could see every single reaction.
"I honestly think you would do a fantastic job Jesse! It's a brilliant idea! But.." she was a little wearying on finishing her sentence, eyeing him to see if he got what her pause meant.
"But the other members of glee wouldn't be so keen on it" he finished for her. She nodded into him, bringing their heads against each other.
"Oh Jesse, at least mister Shuester will be happy about it huh?" she smiled at him sweetly. So excited that he'll be working with them, and she would get to see him during.
Finn POV
As usual he was parked outside of Quinn's house, walking up to her door to pick her up. He loved seeing her smiling up at him when she opened the door for him, following her to the perfectly laid out breakfast that waited for him every morning. She loved all this, and he to admit that he loved sitting across from him every morning for breakfast.
"How was dinner with your mom and sister's last night? Was the restaurant you went to as great as you thought it would be?" he knew that she loved it when he showed interest in the things that she did, the places she went, and the people she went with. It showed her that he truly cared about her. It brought a smile to both their faces.
"Yes it was absolutely breath takingly beautiful. The food was just delicious, and don't get me started about the great selection of deserts they had to offer. Mother said I could try them all. Could you imagine it?" she said with shock at her mother's offer. She was no way ever going to look like she did before.
"Yes and the view from the balcony were just wonderful! I could see the entire city from up there. I felt like I was dining at some remote castle or something, overlooking the town's people" she giggled at the memory. "How was your night Finn?" she loved to show how much she cared about him as well.
"It was alright. You know the usual. Dinner that mom cooked, desert that Burt brought home after work, Kurt and Blaine was over too. I versed him on some video games. He was good, but not as good as me" he beamed proudly, like that was such an accomplishment.
"Sounds like a good night for you as well then?" she tried to make him feel good.
They stood up and put the breakfast things away into their appropriate places, and headed for the door. Her mother was already out meeting her friends at the local country club, so there was nothing more that kept them at the house.
Jesse POV
He had waited patiently as she readied herself for school, organising everything that she needed for the day. Breakfast was wafting from the kitchen that her father's had created for them before leaving for work. His stomach growled in anticipation for the delicious meals. Her fathers were great cooks when they wanted to be.
"Morning Jesse, I take it, you slept well last night?" was that a smirk in Stanley's voice he wondered.
"Morning Jesse" Matthew chirped in with a wink to his partner. "How are you this bright and glorious morning?" he could see where Rachel learnt her dramatics from.
"Morning Stan, I slept really well thanks. Kudos to the comfy click-clack" he complimented
"Morning Mattie, it's looking great so far. Hope it stays that way"
"Yeah I hope so too!" Mattie agreed
"So what's the plan today?" Stan asked
"Well I'm going to drop by my place first to change, then head for the school and see about asking mister Shuester about getting a consulting job in glee" he interjected with hope in his voice.
"Hope it works out for you" the two men said in chorus, sporting a laugh when they realised that they said the same thing.
"Glad you are back Jesse!" Mattie said as he patted Jesse on the shoulder as he walked to the table which held his briefcase, and grabbing his briefcase from the table.
"Well Jesse, hope you have a great day" Stan said with a goodbye, picking his up as well
"Tell Rach that we'll be out late again tonight, we left some money in the usual place. Enjoy breakfast" and with that he watched the men open the front door and head down the stairs to their perspective cars, heard the engine rev out of the garage and out of the drive way.
He watched as she came down the stairs, dressed in one of her short skirts that showed off her sexy legs, he loved gazing at her from the corners of his eyes.
Rachel POV
She sang her favourite tunes on her iPod as she went on her elliptic for half an hour, Jesse said that he didn't want to ruin her routine (which she thought was so sweet of him) and that he would wait patiently down stairs for her in the TV room until she was finished, and would eat breakfast together.
She closed her bedroom door and rushed down the stairs, sad when she heard the front door close, the garage door open and the engines rev down the drive way on to the street.
"Oh I was hoping that I would get a chance to say goodbye to them" she said with a frown.
"They said they weren't going to be home till late tonight and that they left money at the usual place" she heard Jesse's voice from the couch, relaying the message from her father.
He sat across from her, watching her eat vegetarian sausages, mushroom, tomatoes on bread. He didn't mind eating the food that they served at her place. He liked to try new things all the time, she felt like it brought them closer because he was willing to give her way of life a go. It made her smile broaden.
"So you geared up with your chat with Mister Shuester today?" she was curious to his thoughts.
"Yeah I guess so. It doesn't hurt to ask does it?" he answered lightly, wanting for something to come his way. After flunking from college, his dreams had been pummelled and he didn't know what life would throw at him next.
Jesse POV
He drove more quickly than usual, wanting to get to his place so he could start the day and get it over and done with. He loved the suspense, and usually he would thrive right through it, but today wasn't one of those days. He felt rather anxious and a little jumpy; not knowing the answers was a bit of a hard thing to deal with right now. The unknown usually a great feeling, but he just didn't want to deal with that right now.
He glances over at his beautiful girlfriend, always ready to support him in whatever he chose fit to pursue. He was lucky, really lucky. He took that chance to grab her hand in his, smiling at her and her mirroring his image was just epic. He could not be more in love with her than he was with these small moments, when they gazed in each other eyes. Wow he was dramatic! He silent laughed to himself.
They enter his uncle's apartment and he turns the TV on for her, now it was her turn to wait patiently as he got ready for the day.
Finn's POV
He held his girlfriend bag as she sifted through her locker, pretending to listen to everything that she had to say. He was in one of those moods where he just couldn't be bothered to do anything else. He grunted, and nodded and uhu'd at the right spots, he was use to the yammering on that his girlfriend went through every day. He seemed to be able to tune her out when he wanted to.
His thought's kept going back to Rachel and everything else that had happened since prom. He still couldn't believe that her dad's had let HIM stay overnight. They ALWAYS kicked him out after eight when they were home, or woke him up so he could sleep in his own bed. It just wasn't fair that he was treated differently.
Something caught his eyes.
