Finn Hudson

A Party and Disappointment || Finchel

Rachel couldn’t exactly pinpoint why her heart was tightening so much in her chest. She wanted to throw herself onto her bed and sob and in all honesty, she didn’t know why. If Santana Lopez was the girl that made her best friend happy then…shouldn’t she be happy for him? Sure the girl was a skank and sure got around the block and sure she’d want him to find much better but…it wasn’t about that. She knew that much to know right away it had nothing to do with Santana being a whore. No, there was something much more than that and she just didn’t understand it.

It didn’t matter. She needed out. She had too much of this party as is. She was just outside the door when she felt a hand on her shoulder, partly hoping it was Jesse. She turned to look and frowned even deeper when it wasn’t. She pulled back and shook her head. “I…I thought you had better taste than that, Finn! I…it was my first party and I left dancing with Jesse to look for you! And…and you chose that..her?! I just….I thought….” Tears were welling up in her eyes now. She reached up to quickly swipe at them as she turned away, shaking her head. “Don’t worry…I’ll get myself home…go back to your little…whatever it was with Santana…”

At this point him being totally confused was just an understatement. He felt horrible that she was so upset, and even more so when she began to cry. He searched for what to say next and then pulled his brows together when she said she’d get herself home. “Get yourself home? Rachel wha- Let me guess, you’ll have Jesse take you home right?” This whole mixture of emotions, and some alcohol, surged through him, but now it seemed as though anger was the most dominant one. “What does it even matter if I was up there with Santana, or Quinn, or Brittany, or any other of those cheerleaders? None of them mean anything to me. I-” He let out a sigh. “Look, it all happened so quick. You were there with Jesse and I couldn’t- and then Santana came and…” It was hard for him to explain it all until he realized. “Wait, why do I have to explain all of this anyway?”

He looked down at her, seeing her eyes puffy and still wet from her tears. “We’re just best friends right? You got what you wanted. Jesse’s into you. He get’s to have you and I…” His voice trailed off for a moment as he realized that he couldn’t have her. “I get get to make out with Santana.” He glanced down to the ground, almost afraid to look back up at her. When he did he frowned. “Please don’t cry, Rach.”

Rachel’s head was severally spinning. She was now dancing with her crush, her crush of all eternity. He was looking down at her with these eyes she just couldn’t describe, as if no one else was there. She was just lost in heaven. The entire time she danced, nervous at first but slowly as his arms encircled her waist, she moved closer, eventually resting her head upon his shoulder and closing her eyes. She was just in this dizzying dream and still couldn’t believe it was even happening. It was probably a good hour in before she lifted her head up from his shoulder and blinked, glancing about. “Finn…” Jesse glanced down at her, furrowed brows as he frowned. “Don’t tell me you’d rather dance with him?” She gave a nervous smile and shook her head rapidly. “No, no but I mean he..he brought me here. He invited me…it…it’s rude to just, you know, abandon him and ignore him.”

Jesse was still frowning down at her and she quickly held a hand up, shaking her head. “No, Jesse please…just let me check up on him, see that he’s having a good time, and I’ll be right back…”, she blushed as she continued, “in your arms…okay?” He let out a soft sigh and slowly nodded. “Alright, alright my dear…just don’t be long, alright?” She smiled to reassure him and gave him a quick hug before she rushed around.

Last she had remembered, Finn was standing near the main floor, not too far from where they were dancing. But when she went there, he was gone. She spotted Puck nearby and quickly asked if he had seen Finn. All he did was frown at her as he pointed up the stairs. She blinked and glanced up the stairs before going up. It was weird once she got there, people making out in every corner, odd sounds coming from every room. She shivered each time she’d hear a moan here, a shout there. She ignored it until she came near one room. Outside was a couple of cheerleaders, giggling and whispering, some even glancing to her and smirking. “Looking for your boy toy Finn? Looks like he’s over you, man hands.” She frowned and rolled her eyes as she glanced to the door they were both looking at. She took in a deep breath before finally slowly opening the door and peeking in. The only thing she could see, was a girl’s ass in her way with a short short skirt. The latina finally turned and looked at her, glaring. “What do you want, Berry? Don’t you know how to knock?!” She gulped hard and it was then she spotted Finn…right beneath her, his hands…she didn’t even want to know. She gasped and slapped a hand over her mouth as she shook her head. “I can’t believe it, Finn! With her?! Really?!” She frowned deeply and shook her head before turning on her heel and running straight out the door, the girls outside laughing loudly as she did.

It all happened so quickly. In an instant Finn felt Santana’s lips pull from his as she directed her attention towards the door. Once he realized that it was Rachel she was talking too, his eyes went wide. “Rachel?” He lifted up, seeing her standing there with this look on her face, wide eyed, her hand covering her mouth. “Rachel!” He called out as she ran out. He immediately moved Santana off of his lap and hopped up, going after her.

He passed right by the giggling cheerleader and looked around. There was no sign of Rachel so he headed downstairs, pushing his way through the crowd looking for her. Finally he caught glimpse of her, heading right out the front door. “Rachel!” He called out again, though his voice drowned in the loud music. He moved quickly, going outside and catching up to her. “Hey.” He stopped her, his hand at her shoulder. “Wanna explain to me why you’re so freaked out about me and Santana?” At this point he was beyond confused. What really made her yell at him and run off like that?

Rachel laughed lightly at his face and made a mocking pout. “Why not????” She grinned and took the bottle of water, opening the cap and sniffing it. “Unless Vodka smells like…nothing, I doubt it then.” She grinned and held it to him to sniff for further check before taking a sip herself. This was nice to just hang out with him, even if everyone else was crazy. Finn was the one set rock in her life and she knew she’d be forever drifting without him. She waved him off at his guy comment and blushed even deeper. “No! Please…there are other great looking girls around here…” Santana Lopez being one of them.

She was forever jealous of those girls Santana, Quinn, Brittany. Perfect body, hair, looks, nose. Everything she didn’t have. And to say guys were staring at her when they’d rather stare at the rather large chest of Santana Lopez? She highly doubted it. But her comment was half way interrupted by another familiar voice behind her. Her eyes went wide as she slowly turned around and it felt as if her life went into slow motion. There in front of her, with his perfect hair, dashing smile was Jesse St. James…the guy who currently captured her breath. She gulped hard. “J…Jesse…I…I didn’t see you there…” She was positive now her cheeks were flaring up, even getting worse as he asked her to dance. She glanced quickly to Finn, feeling bad for a moment. After all, that was her best friend and now she was going to ditch him? But he’d understand, right? He knew she had the hugest crush on him for the longest time…he had to understand! She let out a sigh of relif and quickly threw her arms around him in a tight hug, whispering in his ear, “I owe you big time for this…thank you, Finny bear.” She grinned and pulled back as she took Jesse’s hand and let him lead her out onto the dance floor.

He hugged her back, trying to keep the smile on his face until she had disappeared into the crowd to dance. With Jesse. Suddenly this party seemed to suck, big time. He quickly gulped down the rest of his punch and refilled. After awhile he moved out of the kitchen, making his way around to find Rachel. She was where he expected her to be, still dancing with Jesse. He moved in close to whisper something into her ear and she laughed. That’s when he gulped down the rest of his drink and went to get more. It wasn’t long before he felt a slight buzz. “Hudson. I didn’t think you were even capable of having a good time.” He heard a voice behind him and turned to see Santana there. Her arms were crossed over her chest and she had the familiar smirk on her face; the one where she was obviously up to something. He finished off his drink, setting the cup down on the counter. “Yeah, I’m having a great time.” He said sarcastically.

“Aw. This have anything to do with Hobbit and Show Choir Boy?” She asked, her finger tracing along his shoulder. Finn looked at her a bit shocked. “Puck told me you were into her. Plus you hang on her like some love sick puppy. It’s kinda pathetic.” She furrowed her brow before correcting herself. “No, actually it’s definitely pathetic.” Finn rolled his eyes. “I love these moments we have, really. But I’m not really in the mood for it.” Santana gave a pout. “I know just what you need.” She said taking his hand and leading him upstairs to her bedroom.

He knew that it asn’t a good idea. He wasn’t supposed to be drinking at all tonight, watching over Rachel, and here he was. Buzzed and all alone with Santana in her room. She pushed him down on the bed. “I should probably go check on Rachel.” He said as the girl climbed on top of him. “You may be as dumb as rocks, sweetie, but you should know that she’s into Jesse. He’s a musical dork loser just like she is. Their perfect for each other. So why don’t you except reality and let me help you forget all about Rachel Berry.” The next thing he knew, the girl’s lips were crashing into his. He didn’t pull away. Instead he kissed her back and for a brief moment, he pictured it was Rachel that he was kissing. His arms wrapped around the girl’s waist as they continued to kiss, lying back on the bed.

Rachel could only simply blink as Finn looked at her. Why was he giving her this glance as if he had never seen her before? And her dad Leroy was simply creeping her out while her dad Hiram looked just as confused as she had. They always did say she was a bit more like Hiram than Leroy, the more carefree of the two. Still, she paid no mind to it. That must’ve just meant she looked good, right? And if she could wow her best friend then…maybe she could wow someone else, right? She only hoped. For her luck, he’d probably have his arm around Harmony Meadows and just completely ignore her…as usual.

Her thoughts were broken as she heard Finn speak once more. She blinked and glanced up at him, unaware her cheeks were flaring slightly. She giggled a bit and looked down as she nudged him. ”You’re too much of a charmer, Finn! It makes me wonder why you’re always single…” She frowned a bit but really, she did wonder. He was good looking, very good looking, probably the best looking guy in the entire school. She knew girls were falling over him especially since he was captain of the football team. And yet…he never seemed to have eyes for them. Part of her was a bit relieved for that. She hated sharing him and having a girlfriend would mean less time spent hanging out with her.

The conversation dropped for a bit as they finally arrived. She was starting to feel herself get excited as she almost pressed her face against the window, still being careful of her makeup. She grinned over her shoulder at him and nodded rapidly. ”Of course!” Sure she might have been reluctant at first but now…it was actually pretty exciting. She glanced about, eyes wide, innocent, and curious as she glanced about like a little kid. This was territory she had never known before and it was all so new and exciting. As soon as Mike and Tina came over, she felt relief wash over a bit. It was exciting but overwhelming, especially spotting most of the kids that tended to tease her most of the time in the halls. Seeing Tina, one of second oldest friends, made her feel a bit more at home. The two girls went on and on about dresses and hair before Mike pulled her off to dance. She laughed lightly and waved off as she then looked to Finn.

She smiled softly and let him take his hand, knowing if he didn’t, she’d only end up lost and wandering…and probably a ball of panic. She glanced about before looking at him and laughing, nodding lightly. ”Yeah with all the bodies in this room I’m starting to feel a bit parched!” She glanced about once more, slightly hoping she’d see a curly haired head but frowned and looked back to Finn when there was none in sight.

He smiled, leading her into the kitchen, saying hello to a few people along the way. When they got there he headed to the counter where the drinks were. A big bowl of punch was at the center and he let go of Rachel’s hand to grab a cup. Once he poured, he took a sniff. “Whoa. Okay you’re not drinking that.” He chuckled, smelling the alcohol and setting it down. “Looks like you’re gonna have to settle with water.” He grabbed one of the bottles and handed it to her. “Unless it’s really Vodka or something.” He quickly furrowed his brow before shrugging and grabbing the cup of punch he poured earlier.

“You know, I’m pretty sure all of these guys have been staring at you since we got here.” He said, about to compliment about how great she looked once more before… “I know I have.” Someone had come over to them and it as none other than Jesse. Finn rolled his eyes. Great. “Rachel you look stunning tonight.” The boy smiled, glancing over at Finn. “Hey.” He greeted nonchalantly before returning his attention to Rachel. “I hope you won’t deny me a dance.” He said, his hand reaching out for her to grab. Finn just stood there. He knew that’s she turn to him for approval, not wanting to leave him by himself. This was what she wanted; she had that excited happy look in her eyes, so what else could he say. “Oh, don’t worry about me. I’ll just be here. Sipping my punch.”

For some odd reason, Rachel felt anxious. It felt as if this party was going to be a game changer for her. How she could even figure that, she wasn’t too certain. Still, she felt inspired to dress herself up a little bit extra, putting on a cute, short blue dress and keeping her hair down and curled slightly at the ends. She put on a dash of makeup when her phone finally rang. She smiled as the ever familiar ringtone that informed her Finn was calling, began to sound. She answered her phone and grinned as she heard the familiar voice on the line. ”For my best friend? But of course!” She grinned and quickly hung up as stated he was on his way.

She could already hear him downstairs and rolled her eyes as she heard her dads going on with him. They always adored him, even once going on about how she settle down with a nice boy like that. She’d always roll her eyes and dismiss him, tell them that they were best friends and he was like a brother. But Leroy would always go on how the tall boy didn’t seem to look at her with brotherly eyes.

It didn’t matter, her fathers were insane, she knew that much, though she loved them terribly. She heard her father caling out to her and grinned as she rushed down the stairs. ”Sorry, sorry I was just finishing the final touches!” She grinned and leaned over to kiss her dads’ cheeks and then looked over to Finn, grinning widely. ”I didn’t keep you waiting too long, did I?” She ran a quick hand through her hair and pouted slightly. ”I just had one last curl to go through but…I think I’m okay to go now!” She grinned and rushed over to her best friend, latching onto his arm as she looked to her dads. ”Now..daddies, I’ll be just fine. You know Finn is very responsible, we won’t do any drinking and we’ll be home at a very reasonable time…Right Finn?” She grinned and nudged her best friend lightly as she wrapped her arm around his.

Finn had been chatting when Rachel had finally come down, and when she spoke his head snapped into her direction. “Wow.” He mumbled under his breath, swallowing the lump in his throat. It wasn’t long before he felt a hard nudge at his side. “Ow.” Leroy had a grin on his face wider than he had ever seen before. Finn quickly cleared his throat. “No, I haven’t been here long.” He finally answered as she made her way to his side. Finn just smiled as she reassured her dads that there would be no drinking and they’d be home early enough. He felt another nudge. Why was everyone nudging him tonight? “Oh. Uh, yes. No drinking. Reasonable time.” He nodded.

After saying goodbye, Finn walked Rachel out to the truck, their arms still linked. “Rach…” He began, his eyes glancing over her. “You look really beautiful.” He said seriously. She was always beautiful to him with her over the knee socks, skirts and dresses. But she was especially beautiful tonight. They got to the car and he opened the door for her. Then they were off to the party.

Finn was getting more and more nervous by the second. He was battling with himself on whether to tell her tonight, and then he looked over at her and she smiled. That’s when he knew. I’m telling her for sure, he thought. Finally they had arrived, and the party was already at full force. He parked the ruck and looked over at her. “You ready for your first official party?” He grinned before getting out. They walked up to the house, the music blaring. It was even louder when they got inside. Kids were dancing, standing around talking, some playing beer pong over by the kitchen. “Finn!” He heard someone call. He turned and saw Mike Chang coming towards them with Tina in tow. They pounded fist. “Dude this party is awesome so far. Hey Rachel! You look awesome.” Mike complimented, and Tina agreed, beginning to gush over Rachel’s dress with her.

They all chatted for awhile before a new song played and Tina pulled Mike out to dance. Finn laughed, grabbing Rachel’s hand so she didn’t get lost in the crowd. He leaned in close to her, his lips at her ear so she could hear him better over the loud music. “Did you want something to drink? Mike says there was some non-alcoholic stuff in the kitchen.”

Finn wasn’t just excited about some party. Sure, a party sounded fun, but tonight was the night he would tell Rachel how he felt about her. He didn’t know exactly when he’d tell her, but it would definitely be some time before he dropped her back at home that night. And so here he was, gazing at his reflection and tugging at his shirt. “You can do this.” He coached himself. “It’s gonna go fine. Just…do it. Like Nike!” He gave himself a grin and went to grab his phone. He dialed Rachel as he made his way downstairs. “Hey, you all pretty?” He asked with a smile, waving goodbye to his mom and Burt who were snuggled up on the couch. “Well, I’m on my way.” He said.

Puck had already called him earlier, making sure that Finn was going. His friends seemed quite excited when Finn told him the plan. “Finally! We can celebrate you stop being a pussy and actually telling her how you feel by getting drunk and dancing tonight.” Puck said. Finn just laughed. “Nah, I promised her I wouldn’t get drunk tonight. Plus if everything goes well, which I hope it does, I wanna be sober for pretty much everything.”

He had been anxious all day, and now it was time. He hopped into the truck and headed to pick up Rachel. It didn’t take long for him to get there, and when he rang the doorbell both her dads had answered. “Finn!” They greeted, shaking hands and giving a quick hug. “I’m so glad that you convinced her to go to a party. She’s never been and she needs that experience.” Leroy smiled. “No, no. What she needs is to be at home away from the drinking that I have no doubt will be going on, and playing Celebrity while Barbra’s greatest hits play softly in the background.” Hiram chimed in nervously. Leroy rolled his eyes. “She’s with Finn. It’s fine. Go take a Valium.” He patted and smiled, motioning for Finn to come inside. “She’ll be down in a sec.” Leroy said going to the foot of the stairs and called up. “Sweetie, Finn’s here!”

She blushed even more so. He always had to bring it up, didn’t he? It was like he loved rubbing in and teasing her with the fact he was her first kiss. In all honesty, she did really like that it was him. He was her closest friend and even if he was like a brother, it still meant something that it was him and not some other jerk at school. Besides, what girl has their dream guy as their first kiss? It made the fact that it was her closest and dearest friend so much better, even if he liked teasing and making her blush constantly about it. She waved her hand and kept her mocking pout as she swatted at him lightly. ”Epic moment of my life?” She laughed and rolled her eyes as she shook her head. ” Nope, I think you’re talking about yourself, aren’t you?” SHe grinned and poked him lightly before going to hide back behind her hand.

She blinked as he took the hand and looked up at him curiously. They always had odd moments like this, moments she couldn’t explain. He’d touch her or look at her in this way she just couldn’t put her finger on it. She shut her eyes and shook her head as she smiled. ”Nope, think you liked it a bit more.” She opened her eyes once more and grinned as she looked in his bag. ”Fruit salad? Well…that’s still my second favorite!” She grinned and reached over to kiss his cheek. “You’re the best, Finny! So….shall we head out?”

How could one person be so damn adorable. He watched as she laughed and continued to hide behind her hand. “I am.” He admitted, and though he was serious he made it seem as if he was playing along. “I will never forget that epic kiss from Rachel Barbra Berry.” He grinned. When she leaned over to kiss him his heart beat a little faster. It happened often, especially when he was extremely close to her. When they had those moments. Finn wondered if she ever noticed or gave thought to those moments, or if it was just him imagining things.

“Yeah, come on.” He said pulling out his phone and looking at the time. “By the time I drop you off and get home it’ll be 10.” He got everything together and they headed back to the truck. “You’re cold aren’t you?” He noticed, patting off the blanket and wrapping it around her. “There. Now you’re a warm Rachel.” His arms were around her for a moment as they continued to walk. He let go to get the door for her, and it wasn’t long before they were on their way. Once he pulled up in front of her house, he put the truck in park and looked over at her. “Guess what I’m gonna do when I get home.” He grinned. He did it every night, no matter what; he’d always text her. It could have been a simple goodnight or some other random thing. “I know you’re excited.” He teased.

Rachel grinned lightly as she tapped her chin. “Um…your pout is pretty pitiful, I’d give in just to make you stop!” She giggled lightly, teasing with him. She always loved these moments, how they’d loosely tease each other. It was their thing, no one else could do it. If she caught anyone, it would be their death and vice versa. She was always far too protective of him, and he of her.

She could only really laugh as he started rushing for all his things. For some reason he always loved the lake. She never understood why. Sure it was gorgeous and calm and she loved the talks they always had there. But he had this renewed spirit she just couldn’t understand each and every time he’d beg her to go out there. She had always be meaning to ask him but each time something would come up to distract or or she’d just simply deem it unimportant. And as he looked as cute as ever going on and on about making her something she couldn’t help but let it slip her mind just once more. She grinned and skipped over to him as she peeked about. ”Hmmmmm pasta salad?” She laughed lightly as she placed her hands on his shoulders and hopped up as if trying to look at what he’s doing. She grinned and poked him lightly. ”Or you could just surprise me?” She laughed and swung around as she leaned on the counter. She always was one for surprises and Finn’s surprises always tended to be the best.

Her eyes blinked lightly brought up Quinn and Puck. She remembered for a long time not being too keen on Quinn, somehow thinking the blonde wanted Finn or the other way around. She didn’t understand why it bothered her so much but every time Quinn was near, she’d feel her guard up. At least until the blonde started to date Puck and then the four tagged along pretty much everywhere. She felt a slight blush at the mention of truth or dare and lightly hit his arm. ”Finn! That’s so embarassing! You all kept laughing at me that day because I just….I hadn’t kissed anyone before and then you….” She shook her head and slapped a hand over her nose as if to hide her blush.

He couldn’t help but grin, soon laughing once he saw her start to blush. “Embarrassing? That was the most epic moment of your life! You’re never going to forget that kiss because it was your first. I was your first.” He had no idea how she felt about that moment, but for him, it was perfection. Even with Puck and Quinn near by cheering them on. Sure, afterwards he laughed along and teased her like everyone else, but he was only trying to cover up the fact that the kiss meant so much more to him than just a dare. He told Rachel everything, but he never told her how he felt about that kiss. And he definitely didn’t tell her that that very night he had gone to her house. He stood outside for awhile, even picked up a pebble to throw at her bedroom window to get her attention. He wanted to tell her how he felt that night, but just didn’t.

He smiled, reaching for her hand and pulling it away from her face. “Don’t hide. You know you liked it.” His hand held hers for a moment, lingered actually, before he let go. “Here.” He cleared his throat, reaching in the bag he packed. “We didn’t have that pasta stuff, but there was a bunch of fruit so I just mixed ‘em all up and made a little salad or whatever.” He set the small bowl between them, looking up and smiling at her.

Rachel couldn’t hide the giggle at his outrage. Of course, he was a boy and he just detested anything romantic and as much as she loved her best friend and wanted to accomadate to his tastes, she just needed her old romance kick every so often. Still, she knew him and knew eventually he’d give in. She laughed and threw her arms around him in a tight hug. ”I knew you couldn’t resist my charms!”

It was one of her favorite movies, they all were really but they were always so sweet, always showing the underdog. She was the underdog in her own reality, playing the guy’s part as she frowned and thought of Jesse. Just, would her real life mirror the movie? Would she ever get him to even notice her? She was thrown out of her thoughts as Finn yelled out at the screen, blinking as she laughed and patted his arm lightly. ”It’s just a movie, dearie, he’ll get the girl, promise!” She laughed land winked lightly before moving to rest back against the couch. Her eyes followed him as he walked to the kitchen and she smiled softly as shook her head. ”Hmmm not now but later I’m making you make me something!” She grinned and focused back on the movie, frowning as the main couple kissed. Why couldn’t her luck be like that? She was only vaguely aware he was speaking back to her again as she tore her eyes from the tv and glanced up at him. ”The lake?” She laughed lightly and grinned, nodding. ”Only if you promise not to try to get me wet again! Last time I was sick for a week because you wanted to play in the water…” She pouted slightly before smirking and sticking her tongue out at him. Still, her smile couldn’t die down. He was always too cute when he tried to get her to do something, not as cute as her of course but cute.

“Yes!” He said, as she gave in. “I thought I was gonna have to do my pout on you. Which, may I point out, is equally irresistable.” He gave a stern nod as he sat down. They finished watching the end of the movie and once it was over, Finn hopped up and grabbed everything. His jacket, a blanket. “Hey what were you gonna force me to make you!?” He called out to her, because of course he’s do just that, make it for her, and they could take it out with them to the lake. He’d pretty much do anything she asked him to do.

Once he got everything together they headed out. His mom had no problems with them going as long as they were back by 10. Finn was glad they were going down to the lake. They always would go, swim in the summer time, have picnics, just hang out lakeside and talk. It was their spot. There was also another particular reason he loved the lake so much. Once they got there, he led the way, going to their usual spot and laying out the blanket. “Hey, remember that one time when I told Puck about this place, and when we came out he just showed up with Quinn?” He laughed. Of course he was going to remind her of that because that was was one of the best days of his life. “He made us all play truth or dare.”

A lot of crazy things happened that day. Seeing Puck run by naked was definitely one of them. But the best thing was when Quinn dared Rachel to kiss Finn. Puck had a huge grin on his lips because he knew that Finn was totally in love with Rachel.
