"Finn?" she asks hesitantly. "Where are you?"

"I'm..." He pauses and she thinks for a moment that he's gone. "I'm outside! Where are you?"

"I'm at my house" she replies wearily. "What are you doing outside at..." She checks the time. "Nine forty-five at night? Why aren't you still with Puck?"

"Puck's an ass" he slurs with a laugh. "And I felt sick. Santana slapped me, Rach...she slapped me. I didn't do nothing!"

She sighs. "What happened?"

"Hmm..." he muses aloud. "I went to Puck's place 'cause...erm...'cause...you're not gonna like me!"

"I know what you did" she huffs in irritation. "You eavesdropped on Kurt and my conversation."

"Yup" he exclaims proudly. "How'd you know? You're so smart, Rach...so damn smart!"

"What happened after you got to Puck's?"

"Let me think" he garbles thoughtfully. "I told him wanted to-" He hiccups. "-get drunk off my ass 'cause I felt bad. So he gave me a few drinks and then everybody came. Santana tried to sit on my lap and I-oomph! Whoops! I didn't see that pothole!" He laughs loudly.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm trying to find your house, silly!" he declares. "But it's really dark and I don't remember which was your house is!"

"Don't go anywhere, Finn" she orders. "Stay right where you are. Can you see a street sign anywhere?"

"Umm..." She can tell he's looking around in his incoherent state. "I see that I'm walking down a big long street! I think it says...Oak Trail..."

"Okay, stay right there" she demands, hopping off her bed and grabbing her jacket. "I'm coming to get you."

"Hooray!" he says excitedly. "I miss you, Rach!"

She freezes, her chest tightening. He said he missed her. He told Santana that he wanted her to be Rachel Berry. He called her Rachel.

She hates him.

"Where'd you go?" he inquires sadly.

"I miss you, too, Finn" she whispers after a moment. "Stay right there."

"'Kay...see ya soon! Love you!"

She swallows thickly, the words so cheerily spoken while layered in a slur break her heart further. Finn's either an honest-as-hell drunk or a crazy son-of-a-bitch. Either way, the words still hit her hard.

"Bye, Finn." With that, she hangs up and sighs deeply. Why was she doing this for him? Why did he have to keep doing this to her?

Shaking her head because she hates the answer, she bounds down the stairs, calls to her fathers that she'll be out for a drive and jumps in her car. Jamming the key into the ignition and waiting as it roars to life, she turns the radio on as she pulls out of her driveway.

"And I hate how much I love you boy
I can't stand how much I need you
And I hate how much I love you boy
But I just can't let you go
And I hate that I love you so..."

"Aw, hell."
