Thank you for the reviews. After the finale last night I need some happy Finchel and that is what is going to get me through the summer. Hopefully Ryan Murphy has something good up his sleeve to get back in Finchel fans or else this is going to be bad. Here's hoping that something happens that we weren't expecting at the start of next season. I won't give up on them. :) Enjoy!
Finn, Rachel and the kids were at Babies R' Us looking through all the different possibilities of furniture and themes for a little girl's nursery. Finn asked, "What do the two of you think? Rachel and I can't make up our minds on what the nursery should look like."
Briella and Dayton both looked at each other as if they were thinking about the hardest decision they would ever have to make. Briella said, "Hmm… How about zebra, owls or polka dots?"
Finn asked Dayton, "What do you think little man?"
Dayton replied, "I like Brie's ideas. I like zebras and owls. Drew already has a teddy bear and blanket that would go with polka dots."
Rachel rubbed her stomach and said, "I like all three of those suggestions. I think Drew would like any of those rooms."
Finn asked, "What do you think of Pink and zebra?"
Rachel smiled and said, "I like it. What do the two of you think?"
Dayton and Briella both nodded in agreement. The four of them found the perfect bedding. They picked out white furniture to go with it. They came across a little white chandelier that matched all of it perfectly. They even found the paint that would work best with the bedding they picked out. The room was planned out. Now all that had to be done was getting it put together.
The four of them actually found everything they agreed on. It was like a miracle. The four of them were all so different, but they picked everything out in unity. Rachel knew they were all going to be okay when the baby got there. It wasn't going to be an easy task, but they were going to get through it together and become a closer family because of everything.
Quinn and Rachel were sitting in the living room. Dayton and Briella were on the floor playing with Elle. Finn and Puck were in the nursery painting and putting together the furniture.
Quinn asked, "How are you feeling?"
Rachel told her, "Tired. Really tired. All I want to do is sleep, but I can't get comfortable. I'm just ready for her to be here."
Quinn chuckled. "You are doing great. I don't know how you are handling this with two kids. I was a mess and didn't have any kids to look after."
"They are actually helping out a lot. They look after me just as much, if not more than Finn does now. They are fascinated by the whole thing."
"That is the cutest thing. They are going to be great siblings. You and Finn are doing a wonderful job."
"You and Noah are doing a good job with that little one, too. The kids adore her."
"Thanks. She is going to be walking soon and that terrifies me."
"It will all be fine. It is scary when they start to walk, but it awesome to watch."
"Thanks, Rach."
"Q, I'm scared."
"Why Rachie?"
"Finn is leaving next week. He is going to be away. What if he gets hurt again? I won't be there to be with him. What if he gets hurt worse? I can't raise three kids alone. I can hardly handle the two when he is away. Now I'm pregnant and can't interact with them like I used to."
"You have nothing to worry about. I have already threatened Puck to watch out for Finn. I told him if he let anything happen to him while they were away he wouldn't get any of our special adult time he loves so much."
Rachel laughed. "That is almost evil. I love the way you think. I will have to learn your secrets."
"I would be willing to share them with you. I'm so glad we are friends."
"So am I. I'm glad we worked out our differences and found a way to get past all of that. I don't know where I would be without you."
"I feel the same way about you. It is so good to have a friend that truly understands me."
Rachel went to stand up. "I need to go check on the guys, plus this little girl is bouncing on my bladder like it is one of those bounce houses. Do you want to come with me?"
Quinn got up with her. The two of them walked back to the nursery. Well, Quinn walked while Rachel waddled. It was a new development in her pregnancy and she still had about three months left.
They stood at the door and burst out laughing when they saw their husbands covered in pink paint. Rachel asked, "Is there any paint actually getting on the walls, boys? Noah, pink is a color you should wear more often."
Puck said, "Hey. It's all your clumsy husband's fault. He was up on the ladder and didn't pay attention what he was doing and kept hitting me in the face with the paint brush."
Quinn burst out laughing. "We shouldn't have left them to do this job. We could have done it so much better." Rachel laughed.
Finn said, "Rach, get out of here. You aren't supposed to be around the fumes. It could like mess with Drew's brain."
Rachel rolled her eyes. "Honey, we are fine. You have the windows open, so it is safe. I promise. I just wanted to see how the two of you were doing. Drew has been kicking like crazy. I couldn't sit still any longer."
Finn came over and kissed her nose. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I'm just a human bounce house right now for your daughter."
"I'm sorry babe, but she is getting bigger. That is better."
"I know. That still doesn't help me out though. She is squeezing all of my organs and she isn't going to be here for another three months. I think she is going to take after you and be tall."
Puck said, "Okay man. Come on. Let's get this done. We have to get this painted so it can dry. We need to start putting this furniture together."
Rachel told them, "You can leave the furniture. I'll put it together while you guys are out of town next weekend."
Finn said, "I don't think so, babe. We are going to get most of this done today. At least as much as possible. I just want to be as ready as we can be for Miss. Drew when she gets here."
Rachel smiled. "You are a great dad. You still have three months to get ready for her. I need something to do next weekend to take my mind off of the fact that you aren't here."
"You are a great mom. I wouldn't leave you if I didn't have to. I love you so much and I would be here if I could."
Rachel told him, "I know, honey. I am going to miss you so much." The two of them kissed and the girls left them to get back to work.
Rachel had fallen asleep on the couch. Finn came in to get her. He lifted her up carefully not to wake her. He knew she hadn't been sleeping as well as she would have wanted and she was tired all the time.
Rachel still woke up and said, "Hey baby."
Finn smiled. "Hey honey. We are almost back to our room and you can get back to sleep."
"How long have I been asleep?"
"It's one. You fell asleep at ten after Puck and Q left. I tried not to wake you. I know how hard it is for you to get the sleep that you want."
"It happens. I love you."
"I love you, too."
"You and Puck worked so hard today."
"I just want to get as much of it done as possible. Then you can organize it the way you want to. I'll leave that up to you. So, do you really like it?"
"I love it. I know Drew will love it, too. She is one lucky little girl to have so many people that love her already."
"Of course. She is a Hudson. She is easy to love, just like our other two."
Rachel yawned and smiled.
Finn laid her down on their bed. He kissed her head. Then he went to her stomach and said, "Night night Drew. Daddy loves you so much. I can't wait for you to get here. You are a special little girl already and you are still in mommy's belly."
Rachel chuckled and rubbed her stomach. Finn planted a quick kiss on it and moved up in the bed to hold Rachel and they were both asleep quickly.
