Save me

Confrontation

Finn
This morning Rachel and I went to our appointment where we found out that luckily everything was okay and that the baby is perfectly healthy. After her breakdown yesterday when we told everyone, Rachel seems a little better but it's honestly hard to tell.

I really want to talk to her about Brody forcing himself on her and why she kept it on me but I don't want to push her into anything because stress is the last thing she needs, but I can't stop thinking about why she wouldn't tell me and what I'm going to do the next time I run into that ass.

After the appointment, Rachel went into my old room for a nap as Puck took Chris to the zoo, everyone else is busy except Kurt who I'm sat with in the living room.

"Finn?" He asks, drawing his attention away from the tv as he looks over to me. "Thank you"

"For what?" I ask confusedly.

"For saving her" he sums up simply. "I just... I can't get the fact that this was going on for months right under our noses out of my head, if you hadn't of showed up on the wedding he could have killed-"

"Please don't finish that sentence" I interrupt his sad rambling, trying to remove the lump from my throat. "She's safe, and I'm never going to let anything happen to her ever again"

He nods his head slowly although I can still see the guilt behind his eyes, I know exactly how he feels.

"So" he begins what I assume is an approach to a happier conversation. "When are you going to pop the question"

"I've been thinking about it" I admit, "I still have the old ring back at my apartment"

"Really? So are you going to do it when we get back?" He questions excitedly.

"I don't know" I tell him cautiously, "she's been through so much and I don't want to overwhelm her and we technically did just get back together"

"I know but you guys have been in love for forever" he tells me with a small smile, "and you know damn well that she'd say yes"

Before I can say anything else, the sound of light footsteps nearing makes me smile softly as Rachel enters the room, rubbing her eyes tiredly before taking a seat nestled into my side.

"What are you doing up?" I ask gently, my hand moving to her stomach.

"I got a call from the label, I have a couple of songs I need to record if they want the album to be released in a couple of weeks so they said I have to go to a studio in Lima to get them down" she explains as Kurt and I share a look and I know we're thinking the same thing.

"Are you up for that?" I ask.

"I'm fine" she shrugs off, "the sooner I get it done the sooner it's out and I can focus on the pregnancy"

"You're taking a break?" Kurt asks in surprise.

"Sort of" she shrugs. "I'll probably have to do a couple of talk shows but other then that the only thing I'm going to worry about is the baby and I'll just postpone the tour"

"What about your manager?" He asks cautiously.

"I have no idea" she answers quietly, moving closer into my side as I hold her tighter.

"We'll figure something out" I promise.

"Anyway, I'll see you guys later" she says as she moves to put on her shoes.

"Wait, how about we come with you?" Kurt suggests. "Remember when you were recording your first album and the 6 of us would spend most nights sat there just playing around" he reminisces with a smile that is mirrored by me and Rachel.
