Tell Me That You Love Me

Gay Best Friends

Rachel walks up the stairs towards Kurt's room to talk to Kurt and Blaine, thinking over what Carol just said.

She loved Finn, he was her rock, if she ever had no where else to go she knows he would giver her a place to stay, a shoulder to cry on, a friend to lean on.....a lover to protect and help her?

'Who knows anymore!' she thought as she knocked on the door.

"Just a minute," said a breathless voice from inside.

"Gross," Rachel said, knowing far too well what she just interrupted, after all, up until a few months ago she would have just walked in.....biggest mistake of her life.

"Hey Rach, what's up?" Kurt says once he opens the door and lets her walk in as Blaine is just putting his top back on.

"I know I interrupted something, and I'm really sorry but this couldn't wait."

Blaine, now full dressed, sits on the end of the bed and chuckles, "Just tell us what's wrong, Rachel."

"Okay. Um...I am having some serious.....boy problems." She tells them.

"Okay, well, sweetie, we can't help you if we don't know what's wrong, now can we?" Kurt said.

Rachel takes a breath and starts to tell the story. "Right. Um...sure. Okay. So.....I kissed someone and it was amazing, breath-taking, and I saw fireworks and sparks and I felt like my whole body was on fire and I never wanted it to end and it's making me think that I like him, I mean, REALLY like him, maybe even love him, and now I don't know what to do because if I tell him and he feels the same way then we can be together and be happy and in love and nothing would really change from what we already do now, but if I tell him and he doesn't feel the same way then it will be awkward and could really ruin our friendship, and I don't want that but I don't think there would be a way to prevent that from happening. What should I do?" By the end Rachel looked close to tears and her face was flushed.

Blaine got up and hugged her. "Do you want my honest opinion?"

"Yes," she replied as she nodded against his chest.

"Tell him. Even if he doesn't return your feelings, he deserves to know."

"Yeah, sweetie, I'm with Blaine on this one, you should tell him, because you're worrying so much about the 'what if's' that he won't return your feelings, which by the way he would be an idiot for not liking you, I mean Christ, you're THE Rachel Berry, you need to start thinking 'What if he DOES like me back?'"

Rachel pulls away from Blaine. "You're right. Thanks guys, this is really helped, I'll tell him." She heads towards the door, but just as she touches the handle and starts to pull it open, Kurt can't help but to ask: "So, who is he? You never told us."

Rachel open the door and paused before looking back at them and saying: "Finn," and then she left, leaving Blaine and Kurt watching her go with two very difference expressions. Blaine's one of shock and Kurt...well Kurt couldn't wipe that smug smile off his face.

Meanwhile with Finn downstairs in the kitchen:

Finn is looking for something to eat as he mutters to himself, "What the hell did Rach tell my mom?"

Knowing that he needed to talk to someone about the kiss and with Rachel upstairs talking to Klaine, his mum has gone shopping that only left him with one choice: Quinn.

He takes out his phone and rings her praying to God himself that she'll just listen to him for once.

"Hello?" she says after she picks up on the third ring.

"Hey, it's Finn, listen I need your help with something."

"Mom has moved the cereal to do cupboard on the left not the right, can I go now? I'm in the middle of a date with Sam." She says.

"Perfect, maybe he can help too, put me on speaker."

Quinn sighs, "Okay," and put him on speaker. "Okay, you're on, now what do you want?"

"Okay, so...there's this girl in school who I think I like and she is amazing, I've never felt anything like this before, when I'm around her I feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and I know I sound completely pussy whipped but I can't help it, I just want to run up to her and tell that I her, maybe even love her, but I don't know if I should tell her or not because I don't want things to become awkward between us, but if I do tell her I don't know how I'm going to do it. I need help!"

Unbeknownst to Finn, Rachel was stood behind the wall of the kitchen and heard every word that he has told Quinn. Thinking that he means someone else a tear rolls down her cheek and she runs upstairs and into Finn's room.

"So, who is it? We can't help if we don't know who she is," Sam pointed out on the other end of the phone.

".....it's Rachel," Finn whispers to not only them, but to himself. He was so quiet that he wasn't even sure they heard him.
