Well I am currently. Well I mean Shelby, Melanie and I are sitting with Burt and Carol and Blaine, Kurt and Baby Colton will be here soon. So almost the whole family except for my dads. There on another vacation. It is all good. I am having fun with Finns family and My mom and sister

"It is nice to have everyone here together" says Carol "Especially since were almost near all the holidays. I especially cant wait for Finn to Come Home"

"You and me both" I respond. "It has only been two months but I miss him like Crazy. I hope he will be back in two months for Christmas and responds to my letters" I sigh

"Rachel. Finn loves you. He will write back when be can. He will come home. Now Im starving. Carol has made amazing food. Lets sit and eat" Burt says as he pulls Carols chair out.

"Thank you for inviting me and my mom. Burt and Carol. It is a nice way to welcome her home" Melanie beams a big smile

"How is Treatment going Shelby? Carol asks politely. 

"Other than you know the side effects. It is working its magic. The doctors say I am slowly getting better. Lets keep hoping"

I raise my glass "We will continue to. And will be your side through the scary and unimaginable because were family"

"Here. Here" Burt says and we all clink glasses

We spend a couple of hours there eating.  Getting along quite nicely and just having a great time. The night ends too soon. I haven't felt that calm and happy since finn left. It feels good to laugh and smile once more. Happiness still exsist. I drop shelby and melanie off at there place. I have my home back. Well Jesse still.is staying with me. I go home. No one is awake. But I do see a letter immediately and I drop my stuff and run to get it. Its from Finn. At this moment. I have tears of Joy and I sit and open it carefully. Hearing the rip of the paper makes me giddy with excitement.  Like a schoolgirl crush. I open the letter and see my long awaited response from my husband. 

My Dearest Rachel, My Wife, My Star and My Eternal Happiness,

I am so sorry that I am barely writing you back. I had received all five of your letters and I can't tell you how much your words warmed my heart. I miss you so much. It seems like a eternity without my true love.  I swear to you I will be back for Christmas. Me amd puck will return. Everytime I feel homesick. I reread your letters and feel whole again. Lovely, your perfume is still stuck in my head. It was just like yesterday I was getting ready to marry you. You are my eternal sunshine.  My dove. Enclosed is a gift for you. I have your gift to me. The very beautiful picture of you in the right coat pocket of my uniform. This is mine to you. For now my princess until next time. Remember me always as I will do.

~Love, Your Knight
Finn Hudson

I smile and laugh as a couple of tears spill down my cheeks. I love and miss him so much. I take the letter to my room and continuously read the letter over and over. It makes my heart skips a beat each time. I open the small package inside.  It is a small locket with a picture of us on our wedding day. He is truly my knight. My Husband and Air Force soldier.  He makes me so proud. He is far away but will always be in my heart. I take the locket and immediately put it on

I go the mirror and say

"You Rachel Berry. Are very Lucky"

I begin to sing

Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what's within
And I've been there before
But that life's a bore
So full of the superficial

[Chorus:]
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah

Some people search for a fountain
That promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share
With no one who truly cares for me

[Chorus:]
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, you, you
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah

[Outro:]
If I ain't got you with me, baby
So nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you with me, baby

I change and head to sleep. Busy times ahead and Plan on writing him a letter later. I fall asleep happy in what seems like a long time.
