Finn realized that he was kidding himself. It's been months and Rachel has changed into this beautiful New York that she was meant to be. It's been a few days since he came to New York and he felt like he didn't belong.

He's been looking at colleges but they just didn't fit right with him and jobs in New York aren't easy to get. He barely graduated high school but he did. He did visit NYADA but it just right for him. His dates with Rachel were awkward, they couldn't talk about anything anymore.

He heard the door slide open and saw Rachel walking in and smiled at her. She smiled back.

"Hey babe, did you have any luck with looking for a job?" He shook his head.

"Finn you can't just sit here everyday not doing something. What about looking for colleges? you have the grades for them. Let's work together." He sighs.

"Stop it Rachel, I'm not cut out to be in New York or your boyfriend or husband. I'm meant to be in Lima for the rest of my life." Rach walked over to him.

"Finn what are you trying to say?"He gets up walking back and forth.

"I don't know if I'm meant to be your boyfriend anymore. Things have changed and you've changed. Not in a bad way. Your more mature then I am." She stared at him.

"Rachel you know it's not working anymore. We don't fit anymore and I know you want to be with Simone. I'm not stepping in your way anymore."

She stared at him surprised wondering how he could know that.

"How did you kn-" She gets cut off by her soon to be offically ex boyfriend.

"Anybody can see that you two want each other. I'm sorry for getting in the way. You two would be cute together." Rachel laughed lightly and hugged him.

"You did set me free." He nodded sadly.

"Hopefully some day we'll be together but right now it just doesn't work." Rachel just sighs in his arms.

"What are you going to do now? You can stay here as long as you want until you figure out what your going to do." He wasn't sure.

"I'm going back to Lima later tonight. I've already talked to my mom. She's going to pick me up at the train station." Rachel looked up at him.

"You've always been the love of my life Finn. There's no doubt about it." He nods placing his hands on her cheek as she tears up.

"I love you so much and I'll be there for you but it's for the best and I'm going to miss you." He pressed his lips againsts hers. She kissed him back one last time feeling the tears falling down her face.

Simone walked in seeing them and frowns seeing them kiss. She didn't like it. She wanted them to stop so she slides the door closed. They slowly pull away but they don't look at her.

"Is everything okay with you two?" They just cried together ignoring Simone. She realized that she walked into a moment the two were sharing.

"Sorry." She whispered and walked to her side of the room texting Kurt on.

Rachel said good bye to Finn a few hours ago and now here she was in her bed trying to stop the tears from falling. She understands why she's crying. They weren't right for each other anymore. Now she was alone trying to figure out how she felt about Simone. She didn't want their friendship to suffer if they did decided that they should start something. Finn was right. She did want to be with Simone but now just wasn't time since her and Finn were offically over.

"Rae? are you going to school today?" She just ignored Kurt and lays in her bed. She just wanted a day to herself.

She heard whispering then footsteps and the door closing. Rachel closed her eyes then felt arms around her mid section.

"You want to cuddle in my comfortable bed? we can watch movies on my lap top and just hold each other. Does that sound good?" Rachel looked at her sadly.

"Yeah." She said softly sniffling. Simone runs her fingers through her hair and kissed her forehead.

"It's going to be okay. I'll help you get through this." Rachel just hides her face in Simone's neck as she starts crying again.

Simone sighs holding her close. She was going to get Rachel to see that they'll be in each others lives again but right just wasn't the time.


Rachel was doing much better with her offical break up with Finn last week. They haven't spoken to each other but she knows from Kurt that he's doing good back in Lima. Rachel was really starting to smile again since Finn left. Simone was a big help. They got closer and Rachel's feelings were becoming stronger.

"Rach stop it." Simone laughed as they ran around the street together. They were doing their morning jog and racing each other. Rachel as becoming faster then Simone.

"No can do slow poke." Rachel giggled as she ran faster. Simone rolls her eyes trying to catch up with her. She finally did and picked Rachel up.

"Oh my god don't drop me." She squealed laughing. Simone spins her around laughing herself. She puts her down then held her close. Rachel looks into her eyes and both girls are about to lean in when Rachel pulled back.

"Race you back to the loft." Rachel giggled running off. Simone gasped not believing she did that and ran after her.

"Oh no you don't." She yelled running after her. They made it to the loft laughing and Rachel screams when Simone once again picked her up.

The door slides open and they see a smirking Santana Lopez standing there. Kurt was also there.

"Um hi?" Santana says waving at them. Simone puts Rachel down and both girls walked in trying not to laugh anymore. They were sweating and breathing hard.

"Santana hi I would hug you but I'm sweating." Rachel tells her before walking to her side of the room. Simone waves at her before joining Rachel on her side laughing.

Santana turned to Kurt with a knowing look. He just shrugs. He knew sooner or later those two were going to admit their feelings for each other.

"Why didn't you keep me posted on those two?" Kurt glared at her.

"Because I have a job. Hello I can hardly talk to Blaine these days because of work." Santana rolled her eyes sitting down on the couch.

Rachel came out with a towel. "I'm going to take a shower." Rachel tells them walking towards the bathroom. She walks in and stands there for a few minutes.

Simone comes out with a towel herself and walked into the bathroom herself. Rachel smirked at her as she closed the door locking it.

Santana and Kurt both stare at each other. She came to New York at a great time.

With Simone and Rachel.

Simone waited until Rachel finished her shower. She knew Kurt and Santana were picturing them taking a shower together. Sure they saw each other in their underwear but never naked. She was getting tired of waiting to ask Rachel on a date. Sure asking somebody on a date in the bathroom isn't romantic but she didn't care anymore.

"Rachel?" She said while looking at herself in the mirror.

"Yeah?" She took a deep breath then spoke.

"Would you like to go on a date with me?" Rachel peaks her head out of the shower curtain surprised.

"Are you serious?" Simone frowns looking into the mirror.

"Forget I even asked." Rachel reached out grabbing Simone's hand.

"Don't ever take that back. Of course I would love to go on a date with you." Simone grins turning to her.

"Your serious right? no trying to make me feel better because you don't feel the same way?" Rachel kisses her cheek.

"I do feel the same way. I did before Finn showed up and now I'm single. I want to take it slow." Simone smiled.

"I'm perfectly fine with that." Rachel smiles then goes back to her shower. Simone turned back to the mirror with a bright smile on her face.

"When is this date?" Rachel asked.

"How about tomorrow night. I'll take you somewhere special. I'll make sure it's at 8:30." Rachel smiled to herself.

"I look forward to it." Rachel tells her then grabs her towel and wraps herself around in it and stepped out.

"Alright the shower is all yours." Simone kisses her cheek saying thanks then watched Rachel unlock the bathroom door leaving. She closed the door locking.
