Finn looked up from the ice, panting heavily, shooting always made him nervous, especially when his team relied on him to get the point. He glanced around at his team mates blocking off the other players, time seemed to have slowed down as he planned out where to go in order to get this point. He began moving, it all happened so quickly and then it happened, his face hit the glass. Hard.

"Oh my gosh Finn!" Rachel yelled, standing on her feet quickly to see better. Kurt stood and placed an arm around his friend, trying his best to comfort her, this happened at every game they went to. "I can't believe he still plays even though he gets hurt all the time, oh Kurt why do I let him do this?" She rambled worriedly, her arms wrapped around his middle, holding on tight.

Kurt gave her the same pep talk every time they came to a game.

"Listen to me Rachel, he loves the sport and he's happy because he found somewhere to fit in. You let him play because you love him and want to see him smile for reasons other than you." Rachel looked up to Kurt and smiled widely, leaning on her tip toes to kiss his cheek.

They understood each other, or at least they understood what one another needed to hear.

Blaine watched the two as they stood there holding one another. After the stupid election drama they have been the best of friends. "Well if you two are done with your cuddle session maybe we get to see Finn play more!" He joked easily, Rachel and Kurt looking down to him with smiles.

They took a seat, Kurt leaning his head on Blaine's shoulder, taking his hand. "Is someone jealous?" He asked with a hint of laughter in his voice. Rolling his eyes Blaine looked at his boyfriend, scoffing at the question. They laughed together as Blaine held him tight, kissing his head.


"Are you okay sweetie?" Rachel ran up to Finn and hugged him tightly, his laugh echoing in the hallway.

He looked down at her and smiled widely, his lips pressing to the top of her head. Finn loved that she cared so much about him, it was nice to have someone love him other than his family.

"I'm perfectly fine Rachel. I just need to clean up this cut on my cheek and I'm as good as new okay. Don't worry about me." He assured his girlfriend with a playful smile, kissing her cheek.

Rachel smiled weakly and rubbed her thumb along his jaw sweetly. "Alright then. If you're hungry are you ready to grab a bite to eat? The boys are waiting outside." Finn nodded excitedly and placed an arm around his girlfriend's waist as they walked out.

"Look who finally decided to grace us with their presence!" Kurt smiled widely as he stood up straighter from the wall, Blaine turning around to see who he was talking to. "Where are we eating superstar?" He asked Finn with a laugh, patting his brother's back.

Finn gave a shrug as they began to walk, looking around at the hustle and bustle. For as long as they been here he was still overwhelmed by it all. He sometimes missed his small town in Ohio. Thankfully the holidays would be here before he knew it. Just a month or two more and he would be home for a few weeks.

Blaine noticed Finn was zoned out and took the waiting eyes away from him. "How about we grab some pizza?" He suggested, everyone looking at him, nodding in agreement.

Finn gave him a smile and nod as they walked to the corner pizza shop in silence. It was a thank you and Blaine appreciated it, he was hoping to bond more with Finn, especially since he was in love with his brother.


"You did great tonight Finn, really." Kurt said before the couples parted ways to their own rooms. Finn nodded to his brother and gave him a wide smile, thanking him. The door shut behind him and he leaned against it as Rachel dressed for bed.

She studied him quietly as she climbed onto the bed, he was still standing there with his eyes shut tight. "What's the matter?" She asked, sitting under the covers with her knees to her chest. "You can talk to me Finn, you do know that right?"

He nodded apologetically and stripped down to his boxers, crawling onto the bed. "I do know. I just don't really know what to say." Finn lied down and placed his arms over his forehead, just staring at the ceiling, wondering if he should even say anything at all.

"Well just start rambling. I will listen to whatever you need to say babe, you know that." Rachel assured with a small smile, lying down with him so he could rest his head on her chest, she knew he loved that. "I'm not here to judge you Finn, I'm here to love and help you, okay?" His head rested on her shoulder gently and he let out a big sigh, the rambling was coming and it was coming with vengeance.

Finn bit his lip hard and waited a couple seconds doing some last minute gather with his thoughts.

"I miss home. I know this is our home but I miss my mom and Burt and being just.. Home." He began, his eyes closed as he spoke, almost picturing everything as he said it.

"I love being here with you Rach, and having Kurt with me helps, and Blaine isn't so bad either, but I guess I just miss being in high school and hanging with Puck on the weekends, having football practice and glee practice to look forward to. Here there isn't anything familiar yet. I have hockey but other than that there is always something new coming in that I have to get used to."Finn took a few deep breaths and rubbed his eyes, he was not going to get emotional over this, it was childish.

"I guess I just feel lost here and I'm still trying to find my thing. Maybe having Blaine here will help a little bit. I've sort of been living with girls for a year. Kurt would kill me if he knew I said that." He chuckled, some of the tension going away, his muscles relaxing more.

Rachel giggled and leaned over, kissing her boyfriend's forehead. "I'm here for you. Kurt and Blaine are here for you and your mom is a phone call away, she loves you more than anything Finn. You shouldn't feel out of place here though. We can try to make it more homey if you want, we can eat here more and stay in more. I don't want you to be miserable."

He sat up slightly and brought his girlfriend into his arms, holding her tight. "Lets get one thing straight. I am not miserable. I am so happy to be here with you and experience this with you, its just sometimes overwhelming and I'm trying to get used to that. I love you Rachel. All this talking has worn me out, I'm really tired." He pressed his lips to her temple for a moment and lied down, snuggling against her.

"I love you too Finn." She whispered, holding his arms as she drifted off with him. Things will get better, she was hopeful of that. Maybe a little bit too hopeful.


Blaine was up before Kurt which was a first. He would always sleep in and it was always a challenge to wake him, he was a rock when it came to sleeping.

As quietly as he could he made his way to the kitchen so he could make his boyfriend some breakfast and surprise him in bed, proposing a lazy day. They rarely had lazy days but since it was sort of summer break it was the perfect time to do so.

"Good morning!" Rachel floated around the kitchen with a wide smile, seeming more awake than anyone he has ever seen. Kurt wasn't even this alert in the morning and he was a usual early riser. "You're up awful early." She pointed out with a raised eyebrow, grabbing her coffee mug and purse.

He gave a tired shrug and opened the fridge, getting out everything he needed for the perfect breakfast in bed meal.

"Believe me, I'm still wondering why I'm awake." Blaine chuckled and felt her presence behind him, making him stand up a little straighter and turn around.

She bid her friend goodbye and kissed his cheek, practically running out the door, claiming she didn't want to be late for rehearsal. It was amazing how much energy she had in the morning.

"Morning baby, what are you doing out here?" He turned around to find Kurt rubbing his eyes as he stood in the kitchen. Well the breakfast in bed plan was ruined.

Blaine sighed and broke out into a smile as walked over to Kurt, hugging him tightly.

"I was going to surprise you with breakfast but you kind of ruined that." He felt him laugh silently against chest, breaking free from his hold.

He watched in confusion as Kurt walked away from him, stopping in the doorway of their bedroom.

"I was never awake okay?" Kurt giggled and without another word, shut the door, leaving Blaine to finish what he started. He was lucky, there was no doubt in his mind about that.

The door creaked a little as he pushed it opened, walking toward the bed with a tray in his hands. He placed it down on the side table next him and leaned over a "sleeping" Kurt, showering him with kisses.

"Can I be woken up like this every morning?" He asked with a tired smirk, rolling over to face his perfect boyfriend who came up with a perfect idea to have breakfast in bed.

Blaine smiled and took a seat, grabbing the tray to set it in front of him. "If I ever wake up first again.. Which is rare and you know it." He pointed out, making Kurt nod in agreement. There was no denying that was true.

"Especially if we had sex the night before. I'm lucky if you wake up at eleven the morning after." Kurt shot back with a snort, Blaine looking at him with a playful glare. Without any more conversation Blaine gave Kurt his plate and coffee, taking his own into his lap. There was a comfortable silence between the two as they ate, Kurt leaning his head on his boyfriend's shoulder.

Being on their own was something they could certainly get used to. It was almost too easy though. That's what was scary about the whole thing.
