Rachel was so relieved that she had found someone to go on a date with. This "date" was not just any date. It was with Finn Hudson, her best friend. Rachel was excited for this date. She can't wait to see what he planned for the night. All she knew was that she was going to have a great time. But she was also nervous because Finn is her best friend and she likes him but she's afraid of the consequences. What would happen to their friendship if they dated and broke up? What if he doesn't like me that way? What will Kurt think about her dating his brother? Kurt said to date someone but I don't think he meant his brother.

Rachel saw her phone light up. It was Finn and she answered it.

"Hey, Finn," Rachel said.

"Hey, Rachel. I will pick you up at seven tonight, sound good?" Finn asked.

"Yes, I will see you then! I'm excited for tonight," Rachel said.

"I'm excited as well. I can't wait to see you tonight," Finn said.

"See you at seven, bye," Rachel said.

"Bye," Finn said.

Once Rachel hung up the phone, she looked at the time. It was five o'clock and she began to panic. She had so much to do to get ready and so little time to do it in. The first thing Rachel had to do was figure out what to wear. She wanted to look nice because even though it was not a formal date it was still a date. She was all ready and dressed when she heard the door bell ring. Her heart was beating out of her chest and she was so nervous and excited. She opens the door and Finn was standing there in a nice dress shirt and khaki pants. Her mouth dropped. He was so hot standing right in front of her. She tried to hide how she really felt because she did not want to lose what they have if something were to happened between them.

"Hey, you look amazing tonight Rachel," Finn said giving her a huge smile.

"Thanks, you look amazing as well Finn," Rachel said.

"Ready to go?" Finn says.

"Yeah, just let me grab my coat," Rachel says.

They walked to the car together and Finn opened the door for Rachel and closed it behind her. Finn is such a gentlemen and he looks really hot right now. Thinking about him put butterflies in Rachel's stomach. It was something she had never experienced before. This is all new to her. What does this mean? Does she have serious feelings for Finn?

Looking out the window Rachel sees they are on their way to Finn's house.

"Why are we at your house Finn?" Rachel asked.

"I forgot to grab something why don't you come inside with me? I promise to be quick," Finn said.

"OK, that is fine" Rachel said.

They both go inside the house and Finn grabs something. Meanwhile something catches Rachel's eye outside, and she goes over to the patio door to check out what it might be. She sees a blanket with a wicker basket on top of it. Hearing Finn come up beside her she turned to him in awe.

"Wow, Finn, this is so amazing! I can't believe you did this," Rachel said as she and Finn sit down on the picnic blanket.

"I might have had a little help pulling this off," Finn said with a smile as he empties the basket.

Rachel was amazed that Finn went through all the work of planning this. He had sandwiches for us to eat and some pink lemonade to drink with the sun setting in the back ground. It was so simple and so perfect and romantic, Rachel did not need or want anything fancy but something from the heart. It makes the night so special and makes her feel special. They sat and ate and talked and laughed for what seemed like hours, talking about everything from school to their families.

"Wow, you can see the stars really well from here it so breath-taking," Rachel said as she laid on her back looking at the stars.

"They are amazing. I love to just look at the stars and find the constellations. Do you see that brightest star up in the sky, Rachel? That is you and you are going to be a big star one day, Rachel, I just know it!" Finn said.

"You believe in me that much, Finn?" Rachel said.

"Yes I do! You were born to be a star Rachel, you are so talented," Finn said.

Several tears rolled down Rachel's cheek. No one made her ever feel the way Finn does. He makes her feel special and beautiful. She never thought she would find a guy that would be everything she ever wished for - supportive of her dreams and sweet and caring. But somehow, she has and his name is Finn.

"Why are you crying, Rachel?" Finn says as he wipes away her tears with his thumb.

"I never had someone believe in me like you have, Finn. It means a lot to me," Rachel said.

Finn moves closer and leans over to Rachel, making sure she's ok with every move he makes and puts his lips on hers and kisses her. Rachel hesitates at first but his lips feel so good on hers and she kisses him back. Then they just look at each other like thousands of fireworks have just been set off.

"I should probably take you home now, your dads are probably going to wonder where you are," Finn said.

"Ok," Rachel says.

The drive back to her house is quiet and they did not know what to say about what just happened between them. The kiss felt so amazing. It was like a million fireworks had gone off and Rachel wanted to do it over and over again. Kissing Finn was like being in another world. It was simply amazing.

"Thank you so much for this evening, Finn. It was amazing. I really enjoyed it," Rachel said as Finn walked her to her door.

"I had a great time as well, Rachel. Thanks," Finn said.

Rachel leaned up and kissed Finn once more because she did not know the next time she would be able to have his soft lips on her. Finn reciprocated the kiss back, kissing her until he ran out of air.

"Good night Rachel," Finn said with a huge grin.

"Good night Finn," Rachel said with a huge smile.
