Finn and Rachels Prom.

Chapter 1

Day before Prom
Rachel's POV

I hear a very familiar voice from behind me. It's a voice that I fantasize about every night. It's Finns, "He Rach." He calls from down the hall. I turn to see him run to catch up to me.
"Hi Finn."
"Can we talk?". Honestly, I don't want to talk to him. It hurts to talk to him and look him in the eyes knowing I caused him pain, and that he doesn't love me anymore. But I nod anyways. "So I heard a nasty rumor that Jesse St. James is back in town, and I also heard he's going to be your date to prom..." How did I know he would ask me about this.
"No he's joining Mercades, Sam and I on our prom on a budget. He's going to be in town for awhile though, so I'm not sure what's going to come of it " I know I shouldn't be thinking this, but I hope this makes him jealous.
"I just don't trust him. don't you remember what he did to you? How awful he was..." My anger takes over and I cut him off before he can finish. I turn so I'm face to face with him and say, "Look Finn you can't tell me what to do anymore. You broke up with me remember?"
"Ya but I still care about you." Rachel don't. Don't let him in your head. He doesn't care about you, he cares about Quinn. "Look all I ask is that you be as supportive of me and whoever I choose like I have been of you and Quinn, even though I'm dying everyday inside about it." I turn on my heels and walk to my locker fast hoping he won't follow and see the tears that are starting to form.
"I don't even want to go to this stupid prom anyway." Dang it he followed. "I mean Quinn has me handing out buttons with our names on it, I mean where's the dignity. And I know I'm going to pick the wrong corsage and she's going to get all mad at me for it." I really wish Finn wouldn't talk to me about his relationship with Quinn. it breaks my heart every time he says her name. Actually no, it breaks my heart just seeing him look at her the way he used to look at me.
"Hey," I say trying to swallow the knot forming in my throat, "just get her something simple. Girls like Quinn you don't want to get anything that will distract from their face so ask for a gartinia. With a light green ribbon wrapped around it. Ok?" As the last word leaves my mouth the tears are pooled on the bottom of my eyes. I need to leave before he sees an actual tear fall. He can't know he still has that power over me. I refuse to show it. I quickly grab my last book from my locker and walk away, not letting him reply.
As soon as I'm out of sight, I welcome the tears. I run to the bathroom and wipe away the excess makeup from under my eyes. "Rachel Berry. Stop it right now," I start saying to myself, "your fathers raised you better than to let a boy have this much power over you. You will not let Finn get to you like that again. He doesn't deserve your time. He moved on, so can you." After that, I pick up my backpack and head to class. Never again will I cry over him. It wasn't loosing him that hurt the most anyways, it was how quickly he moved on. It hurts to know he kissed Quinn only days after we broke up. While he was perfectly fine, I was dying everyday inside not knowing if there was anything left to live for. I'm still not ok, but I won't show it. I'll smile and pretend to be happy so he doesn't know he broke me.
