i’ve forgotten what i started fighting for,
baby, i can’t fight this feeling anymore..

-------------------------------------------------------

It was Saturday. Saturday afternoon. Football season was over, so Finn really didn’t have any responsibilities. He could have worked out, or something like that. But instead, he felt he needed some good quality alone time. He hadn’t had that much since sectionals, which was only a week or so ago. He wasn’t sure, he’d lost track of the time. Not that anyone blamed him. He went through flashes of emotions—first he would be angry at everyone around him, even his poor mother. And then he would snap into an emotionless state where he’d just sit and stare at the wall for an indefinite amount of time. He even had times where he pretended like he was okay, just to show everyone that he was better than them. He wasn’t okay though.

He woke up, and his mother, who knew how much he was really hurting, set down his plate of eggs, even though it was nearly noon. He shrugged and simply pushed it away, he just wasn’t that hungry lately. And thinking about Quinn and Puck only made him feel more sick. Telling his mother he needed to go for a walk, he grabbed his letterman jacket and slipped into his tennis shoes. Taking a deep breath as he stepped into the chilly air, he began walking with no destination in sight. He didn’t know where he was going, or why he was going. He just knew he had to go, had to walk it off.

Mr. Schu had been great that past few days. And when Finn was at glee, if he wasn’t looking in their direction, he felt good. He felt normal, fine. It was when he was alone with his thoughts, thoughts of his girlfriend and his best friend, that he felt the worst. Mr. Schu had been constantly trying to keep Finn motivated, and so far, it wasn’t doing too bad. Everyone was being really supportive. At least practically every single person was on his side. How could anyone side with them, after how much they did? He couldn’t understand it, so he tried not to make his mind grasp the concept of how they could be so cruel. All of Glee Club was awesome. Rachel, though, she was something else. She was more than supportive. He couldn’t thank her enough for telling him. He had needed to know, and he was glad she was man enough to say it, and not pretend it wasn’t true, like Quinn.

As soon as his mind slipped onto Rachel, he couldn’t help but let it wander and drift. She was always there, always knew what to say, always know how to make him feel better. He had loved Quinn, yes, but Rachel only confused him. He didn’t know what his feelings were anymore, and thus, the theme of his walk.

Finding himself in Central Park, he headed for the abandoned swing set. He was glad no one else was around, he needed some alone time. Settling onto one of the swings, he let himself gently sway back and forth, playing things over in his head and simply looking around. Thinking wasn’t his specialty, but he couldn’t do anything but lately.

rachel berry was up early that saturday morning. but this wasnt unusual. she was up early everday. come to think of it, she was up by at least seven everyday. that was just the kind of girl she was. she liked to get up and get things done. but today, she didnt have a lot going on. and this, it kind of annoyed her. she should be doing at least one thing productive, shouldnt she? besides, she needed to be busy. it helped her keep her mind off all that was happening around her lately.

she didnt regret telling finn that quinn's baby wasnt his. she was glad she did it. he deserved to know. wasnt it bound to have come out anyway? it just wasnt right for her to keep something like that to herself. and she knew that everyone pretty much hated her for almost blowing sectionals for them, and for just being selfish. but rachel didnt care. she knew what she did was right. at least quinn wasnt mad at her.

the young girl pulled a gray sweatshirt over her head and let her dark hair fall around her shoulders. she decided to maybe go do some thinking. "hey dad? i'm headed to the park." she yelled over her shoulder to one of them, then went out the door. the sky was a kind of darkish color, signalling that it would rain soon. but til then, she would do what she could with this new found free time.

rachel hadnt been to the park in a long time. she remembered her dad's taking her there when she was little. she used to dominate the slide, telling people when the could go down. yeah, that was little rachel berry for you. some things never change, do they? as she approached the firmilar area, she noticed a firmilar head on the swings. she bit her lip, but figured, she had to go, didnt she?

she walked closer until she was standing next to him. "hey finn." she said quietly.

-------------------------------------------------------

It felt weird, being at the park. He couldn’t remember the last time he had been to a playground, let alone though about being on a playground. It made him sad. Thinking about a childhood that had come and gone, he was left with a feeling of loss and slight remorse. Where did time go? Before getting into thoughts that became to in depth, he let his mind wander once again, his feet sliding across the ground slowly, making a very dull noise, though repetitive. He couldn’t stop the movement on the swing, though he wasn’t thinking about it too much. He simply moved back and forth in the same manner.

Before long, he felt a raindrop, right on the top of his head. Looking up towards the sky, he realized now the darkening clouds around him. As he was looking upwards, a raindrop fell onto his forehead and he wrinkled it slightly, shaking his head. However, he did crack a slight smile. How ironic for the raindrop to fall right onto his head. He weighed his options. To leave or not to leave? He didn’t feel like going home yet. He was enjoying his time on the swing, letting himself think about hardly anything. It had felt wonderful, just allowing himself to relax for the first time in a few days. He wasn’t leaving, and luckily, the raindrops were coming down in small spurts, nothing too serious.

His mind moved once again to look at his shoes. They were old, and he let his shoes scuff against the dirt beneath him. It wasn’t wet yet, the rain wasn’t really coming down. As he was searching his shoes for some great life advice, he heard a voice, one he knew. He hadn’t heard her coming, perhaps because he was too involved with his shoes. He lifted his head to see Rachel standing in front of him, a few yards away. He couldn’t help himself, he felt his lips curl slightly to form a smile of sorts. Maybe not a perfect Finn smile, but it was definitely a smile, even if it wasn’t at its full strength. “Hey Rachel.” He spoke with the same quietness she did, not wanting to spoil the quiet that surrounded them. He wasn’t sure what else to say, so he just looked at her, not awkwardly. In fact, he was comforted by a presence, and her presence just happened to be one that he found himself looking forward to.

rachel did blame herself for the mood finn was in. but she also blamed puck and quinn more. how could they hide such a thing from the young boy? he was trying his best to do everything he could for a baby that wasn't even his. to think of the sleepless nights he had just thinking about the baby made rach's heart ache.

she sat down on the swing right next to him. she sat quietly for a moment, trying to decided what to say to him. she was smart enough not to say 'how are you?' or 'whatcha been up to lately?' so that was out. in the end, she just settled for a small, "what are you doing here?"

everyone was pretty much trying to avoid talking about the recent drama, but it was very hard. i mean, everyone sent finn small looks of sympathy during glee, when he probably just wanted to forget that the whole thing happened. rachel had done her best to avoid it though.

then a thought occurred to her. he had smiled. finn had smiled at her. granted, it wasn't a normal finn smile, but it still made her heart give and extra jolt forward. and that also meant that he wasn't angry with her like kurt had predicted. he didn't hate her. well, at least not yet he didn't.

Finn wasn’t angry with Rachel. Yes, she’d been the bearer of bad news, but she wasn’t the one who committed any crime. She hadn’t been the one to sleep with his best friend, get pregnant, and pretend like it was his. She was just the one who was brave enough to tell him. He was glad she had, because it was only going to get worse the more involved he became. What was Quinn waiting for, the kid to turn eighteen? He still couldn’t believe that he had fallen for her lie in the first place. They hadn’t even had sex, he should have known better.

But in general, he was glad that Rachel had told him. He may have felt angry, but the anger was never directed towards her. There were only two people whom it was directed towards. He knew that people felt bad for him, at glee and all, but he wasn’t angry with anyone but the two who did it all. He appreciated Rachel’s honestly, and she obviously cared about him as a friend, to go out of her way to let him know something that was going to hurt him.

She sat down on the swing next to him, and he looked over at her, letting himself swing lazily. The rain continued in irregular patterns, bigger drops falling onto his coat, though it wasn’t a nuisance, at least not yet. She asked him what he was doing there, and he had to ask himself the question. What was he doing? What had he been doing the past few days? To be honest, he hadn’t a clue.

He almost laughed at himself, thinking about how pathetic he was getting. He needed to snap out of it. He was never the father of Quinn’s baby. He should have never gotten attached. Yes, his heart was broken, but you could always put on a brave face and work on feeling better. He was done wallowing around, waiting for someone to make him feel better. He shrugged slightly and answered Rachel’s question. “I honestly have no idea.” He paused, a far away smile on his lips. “What about you? I mean, it’s gross out. You wouldn’t want to be caught out in the rain.” He grinned, waiting for her response. He definitely didn’t think Rachel was the type of girl who wanted to get all wet and ruined by the rain.

rachel had noticed quinn and puck hanging out before. they'd stop and talk in hushed voices, but never seemed to be together when finn was around. but she had never really thought too much about it. she figured that finn and puck were best friends, and quinn and puck must have became good friends through finn.

she dragged her feet across the sand, staring down at her still perfectly white laces. the raindrops fell on her head and shoulders, but for once, rachel didnt care. she'd have bucket over bucket dropped on top of her if it meant that she still got to be around finn.

she bit her lip and looked up at finn. her dark brown eyes searched his face as she offered him a side-smiled. she'd be there for him no matter what. he deserved to have a good friend. and she was determined to be that good friend. even if she couldnt be his girlfriend.

rachel laughed shortly at his statement. "it's alright. i think i'd rather stick around with you, if thats okay." replied. her hands curved around the cool metal chain that held her up on the swing. this was a new shirt..

-------------------------------------------------------

He waited to see what Rachel was going to do. He honestly wouldn’t have been surprised if she said she needed to go home, that the rain wasn’t her thing. His purpose for coming to the park had been for much needed alone time, but as he sat there, he knew what he needed was a friend, a good friend. Rachel was the perfect candidate—her and Kurt. Both of them knew exactly how to make him feel better. It was weird, the way they knew what to say. He felt himself wishing that she wouldn’t leave, he almost was craving her company. He needed her then, as a friend.

She responded, and he looked at her with a smile before turning away, glad of her answer. He couldn’t be alone all the time anymore, it made things worse. He needed the support of his friends, and he was ready to participate once again. He wasn’t going to sit back at Glee, he was going to stand up and sing. That always made him feel better too. It was time to get over himself, get over it all.

He wasn’t sure how to tell her he was glad she was staying, even if it was raining and completely disgusting outside. He knew she probably realized he needed a friend right now, just because she always knew. Kurt did, too. He smiled, thinking of the two of them, always trying to make him happy. And they did it. He hadn’t appreciated it enough before, he’d been too busy worrying about Quinn and those dumb pregnancy cravings and mood swings. All that work and it wasn’t even for his own kid.

“Thanks Rachel.” He paused, before going on, choosing his words very carefully. “It means a lot to me.” He hoped she understood where he was coming from. Hopefully she didn’t think he was just randomly spurting off words, due to his emotions. No, he was truthfully glad she was making a sacrifice to be his friend. The rain was definitely not something he saw as Rachel Berry’s friend.

He decided he was sick of the swings though. Standing up, he stretched his legs for a minute, turning to look at Rachel. “I was sick of swinging.” He paused, watching her with his dark eyes. He didn’t know what came over him, but she looked like she needed a push. “Want me to push?” He smiled his smile, looking a bit like an overeager puppy. He was happy, finally realizing he had friends who were there for him. It made him feel better.

rachel had never really had all too many friends in her lifetime. she grew up way too focused on her dream of being a star. she was after all, a very determined girl. she had always been that way. for as long as she could remember, anyway. but she would try to keep one of the only close friends she had now, finn. sure, there was the kids in glee, but she knew they talked about her behind her back. she could never see finn doing something like that to her.

she glanced up as he spoke lowly to her. she gave him as smile back as he talked. "anytime, finn." she replied sincerely. "you know you can talk to me whenever you want to." she'd love it if he talked to her all the time. "i'm a fairly good listener. most of the time." she winked with a slight smile. true, rachel did have a reputation of talking a lot, but she knew when it was time to be quiet. sometimes. but hey, what could she say? she spoke her mind. a lot.

rachel was puzzled when finn got up to a standing position. she got a confused look on her face and looked up at him. she thought for a moment that he was going to leave her alone. maybe he just wanted to be alone himself? but instead he answered her mental question. she was just about to stand up herself, when he asked if she'd like a push. rachel giggled a little and nodded. "sure."

woow. she hadn't been pushed on a swing in...ages. it was crazy. actually, she couldn't even remember the last time she was on a swing. or a playground for that matter. it just wasn't rachel. no one would expect to see the young glee geek anywhere near a big yellow slide. it just didn't seem right.

-------------------------------------------------------

Rachel’s words about how he could talk to her anytime, and how she would always be there left him with even more confusing thoughts. As much as he hated to admit it when he was with Quinn, he definitely had feelings for Rachel. Especially when they were singing together—it was the worst when they sang together. He’d always pushed those feelings away, because of Quinn and the baby. The baby he had thought was his and become emotionally attached to. The sad thing was, he still wished the baby was his. Even though he wasn’t going to proclaim that he may have feelings for Rachel, it just felt nice to have her be there for him, even if it was just as a friend.

Part of him wanted Quinn’s baby to be his. Yes, it was a terrible situation, the whole teen parent thing. But he loved her, he’d also loved his little baby. It was heartbreaking, to stand there and replay all those emotions over his face. Before he started crying, again, he had to move behind Rachel, giving her a gentle push on the swing. He watched as she began to move slowly, but not too quickly or high yet. He didn’t want her falling off the swing or anything like that. As he pushed, so many feelings flooded back to him. He was trying so hard to put the past behind him, but there was so much to think about.

Finn was always the one to not really think about things. He preferred to just act, and not really think. It was his specialty. On tests or exams in school, he rarely even read the problem. Instead, he simply wrote down something. So far, so good. He hadn’t failed out or anything like that, and he got C’s normally. But, when it came to things like this, emotional things, he couldn’t help himself from thinking. Thinking was all he could do, dammit. And it hurt.

He wasn’t being fair to Rachel. He hoped he wasn’t giving off the wrong impression. There was something there, in terms of feelings for Rachel, but he wasn’t ready to let them out and fly. He was far too emotional and broken at the time being. He didn’t want to give her any false hopes, and maybe that meant not being able to talk to her. He continued to push her, not letting himself think of their past, his past with Rachel. They’d kissed before, for god’s sake. And it just happened to be an amazing kiss. But once again, it didn’t compare to the heartbreak he currently felt.

It was bad enough that Quinn had betrayed him and had fed him lies for months, but it had to be with Puck, his best friend. He couldn’t take it anymore. The rain started falling, just a bit harder, and with that, Finn felt himself like out a small sigh and his eyes started to glisten. He stopped pushing Rachel and turned around, so angry that he was crying again, in front of Rachel especially. “Uh, I’m sorry.” He paused. “I just can’t do it anymore. I wanted that baby. I just don’t understand how she could do that to me, put me through all of this.” He frowned, so sorry to Rachel for putting all this on her.

as said before, rachel had never really had a boyfriend. she was clueless when it even came to boys. she relied on others to help her coast through it. though, that wasn't always a good idea. for instance, when kurt dressed her up in the ridiculous outfit so she could impress finn. rach had forgiven him after of course, but still.

her hand rested there for another moment, and then she slowly slid it off and let it drop back down to her side. she wished more than anything that he would just take her in his arms and kiss her. telling her that everything would be alright. but she knew that it wasn't going to happen. kurt had told her that he thought she still had a pretty good chance, and at the time, rachel had believed him. but now, her faith was dangerously shaking.

rach immediately started to follow finn. and frankly, at that moment, rachel realized that she'd probably follow the young boy anywhere. "we're in the same boat there. glee is what makes me want to get up in the morning and go to school the most." she side-smiled, looking at the ground.

-------------------------------------------------------

At that precise moment, he hated himself. He hated everything; Quinn, Puck, the baby, Glee, his life. There was not a single thing he could describe as good. He was angry with Quinn and Puck for obvious reasons. He was mad at the baby for making him fall in love, when he wasn’t the father, and for starting this whole mess in the first place. He was angry with Glee, just because his life changed so drastically after making his commitment into Glee.

He wasn’t being fair though, he loved Glee. He had found himself at a place where he finally loved coming to school. He didn’t dread going to football practice anymore, and he didn’t talk to a bunch of kids who only liked him because he was Finn Hudson, the football quarterback and captain. Instead, he got to sing, something that made him feel special. And he met people who actually cared about him, and wanted to see him happy and succeed. He took back his thoughts. The only people to blame were obviously Quinn and Puck. At that moment, if either one of them was placed in front of him, he would have gone nuts.

He was interrupted from hating himself by Rachel, her hand on his shoulder and her reassuring voice telling him it would one day be okay. He knew it would, he really did. It would just take time. He turned towards her, angrily wiping away his teary eyes. He shouldn’t be crying—that was for babies. Oh god, babies. Shaking his head, he tried to clear his mind. “I know, thanks Rachel.” He paused, smiling weakly. He honestly didn’t know what he would do without the glee kids. They were helping him more and more everyday.

“I don’t know what I’d do without Glee.” He paused, reflecting on his words for a minute. “I finally feel like I belong somewhere. I just wish they wouldn’t have had to ruin everything.” He shrugged, trying to brush it off. He walked a bit, his stature making it seem like he wanted Rachel to follow. He wasn’t ready to be alone for the rest of the day yet.

Finn was just too confused about everything around him to think about things beyond the basics. Just, the betrayal was one of the big things clogging up his mind at the moment. And other than that, glee kept him pretty preoccupied. In terms of even beginning to sort out his feelings for Rachel, he just couldn't bring himself to do it. He knew he technically wasn't being fair to her, always wanting to be around her and wanting the comfort of her company. Yet, he wasn't ready to say he was over Quinn. Hell, he knew for a fact he still loved Quinn.

Sadly, he didn't know how long these depressive feelings were going to cloud over him. When would the sun come out for him? He wasn't sure, but he did know he was trying. He just hoped that for now, Rachel would continue on as his friend, be there for him and all. He would feel awful if his moods and strange show of emotions drove her away. Because, in all truth, there were times when he felt an attraction to Rachel above all things. Like when they were singing together. It was always the strongest when the two of them were up there, by themselves, singing. Their voices together sounded marvelous. Rachel was better than him, yes, but his voice complimented hers well. At least he thought so.

They walked and she agreed with his statement about Glee. Even if he had been silent and sulky at Glee lately, he still loved it. Mr. Schue was amazing, and he kept so much enthusiasm surrounding them at all times. Finn had to admit, he was always forcing himself to remain miserable while in the Glee Room. Smiling, he nodded. "I'm so glad you guys kept me from leaving. It's just that I really do love it." He grinned, meaning not only the connections he had formed from the kids in Glee, but also the feeling that overcame him when he was singing.

ooc; sorry for the wait! i was so busy this weekend (: sorry it's crappy as well.

for now, rachel knew that she was finn's friend. thats all she could be. and thats all she would be. for at least a while anyway. and she also knew that he wasnt over quinn. rach would be throughly surprized if he was. you cant go through all the things finn did with quinn and then be over them. she was sure that it didnt work like that. but she was prepared to wait. as long as it took.

she knew that she was the best in glee. even mr. shuester had told her that. and for a long time, that secure fact had always kept her floating above the ground. but as glee continued, and her bubble continued to be popped, her feet kept getting closer and closer to the ground. she was realizing that maybe she didnt have to be as stuck up as she was to be sucessful. i know what you're thinking 'wow, how could she have not, i dunno, realized this sooner?' well, rachel was an only child. and because of that she was constantly told how good she was and her confidence was always boosted.

"i know you do. it's easy to see when you sing." she smiled and laughed a little. "i think i feel the same way you do when you sing. like...like nothing in the world is wrong. like you can just let it all out and no one will care." she said as she looked at the ground while the two of the walked.

Finn couldn't help marveling at all the great things about Glee. It wasn't just that he got a lot of solos, he just loved the feeling he got, being there with all those people that he knew truly were his friends. It was a better feeling than he got on the football field, that was for sure. When they all were singing together, everything was okay. Even if his world was falling apart, like it had been at sectionals, the show would go on, and everyone would be there, sounding terrific together. He had been so proud, and after they had won, everything had almost felt alright. He had felt great. Whenever his mind slipped from things like Quinn and Puck, he felt one hundred percent better.

It was for that reason that he felt so guilty for not putting him effort into Glee over the past few days. Regionals were coming up, and he knew he had to perform at his best caliber. However, he'd been skipping practice, just to skip out on seeing them. He knew he had to go back and get himself together. He couldn't avoid it for too long before he wouldn't be welcomed back, and Glee was just about the only thing he had going for him at the moment.

Rachel's words were true, and he smiled nodding his head a bit. He knew Mr. Schue would understand his absence over the past few days, but would everyone else? Finn was almost afraid to go back, hoping that they hadn't realized they didn't need him anymore and that he was just the pathetic loser who was dead weight. Turning to Rachel, he decided to question how Glee had been over the few days Finn had been avoiding it. "I'm sorry I haven't been there. I just couldn't see them." He paused before continuing on. "What have I missed?"

rachel had always wanted to be in glee. but before, it wasn't much fun. well, that was until people started joining. with the big group of people they had, there was more laughs. more friends. a better family. but there was also more drama. un-needed drama. rachel always had something to do with it too. maybe it was because she was a bit of a dramatic person. but, whatever. she'd never admit to that.

she was so excited when they won sectionals. well, they would have won anyway, considering the other teams cheated, but still. and the fact that finn came back and helped them? that was even better. but when she got to sing don't rain on my parade? that was the ultimate adrenaline rush. all those people cheering for her? and her just nailing it? it was the most perfect feeling in the world.

"don't sweat it." rach side-smiled. it was understandable to her. and she was sure that others in glee would understand too, right? "not a whole lot." she shrugged. "we took a little break, but now we're starting to pick our songs for regionals." she replied. "oh. and i guess some of us have reason to believe that brittany and santana are like, together?"
