Rachel's p.o.v.
I pull away and look into his eyes.

"Wow Miss. Broadway Star Rachel Berry, I didn't know you felt this way about me." He says smirking.

"I could say the same thing about you Mr. Radio Host Finn Hudson " I say jokingly. He laughs and my whole world immediately lightens up.

{2 days later}
Finn's p.o.v.
"Morning Rach." I say climbing into the bed and laying next to her. She turns over and yawns.

"Mmm good morning." She says with a small smile.

"I think we should tell my mom about how everything used to be a lie today. She deserves to know. Especially since Santana knows now." I say. She sighs.

"Yeah you're right. We should tell Kurt too." She says and I nod.

"I mean at least it's not a lie now. We have feelings for each other. Except the dating part, that's still a lie." I say.

"Yeah. For now." She smirks then gets out of bed and heads into the bathroom. Is it possible to already be falling this hard for something you've known for not even a month?!

{a couple minutes later finchel walks downstairs}

"Hey Finn, Rachel can we talk to you?" I hear my mom say. We look over to see her and Kurt sitting at the table. We nod then go over and sit.

"We actually wanted to talk to you guys too." I say as Rachel stays silent. I can tell she's nervous so I reach under the table and grab her hand. She looks up at me and softly smiles.

"So Santana brought something to my attention the other day." My mom starts.

"Just so you two know, I don't believe any of this craziness. I'm fully on team finchel." Kurt pipes in with a smile quickly.

"What craziness?" Rachel asks cautiously.

"That you guys aren't a real couple." My mom says. Me and Rachel look at each other shocked.

"I don't want to accuse you guys of anything. But some of Santana's points made sense. I don't want to believe it's true but I feel like it is." My mom says looking at us while Kurt rolls his eyes and scrolls through Instagram not believing anything that's coming from my her mouth.

"That's because it is true." I say breaking our silence. My mom nods her head sadly. Kurt jerks his head up and widens his eyes.

"Wait what?! What?!??! No! What about my finchel...." He says upset.

"Well was true." I add in. They both look at me.

"What are you taking about Finn?" My mom asks.

"I'm saying it was true until a couple days ago. We're not officially dating yet but we're definitely heading in that direction. For real this time." I say smiling down at Rachel.

"Oh thank god. You two are falling in love." Kurt says letting out a breath of relief.

"Well I can't say that I'm not upset you lied to me. But I got to admit I'm really glad you guys are happy together now and it's not a lie. Just don't ever do that to me again." My mom says and Kurt agrees.

"Thanks guys. We're really sorry." Rachel says speaking up.

"Oh Rachel. We could never be mad at you. Finn on the other hand." Kurt says smiling and my mom nods and laughs. We all continue talking and laughing. Later on eventually we go our separate ways except for me and Rachel of course....

{the next morning}
Rachel's p.o.v.
I wake up to my phone ringing loudly through the quiet house, I groan then quickly get up to answer it so I don't wake Finn. I look down and see Chelsea calling. Why is she calling me of all people? She's like the number one broadway diva bitch. All the boys are on their knees for her. But she never pays attention to them cause she thinks boys distract girls from their careers. I always get nervous when I'm talking to her. What can I say? I like to try to impress. That's just the way this business is. And she's so famous. Who wouldn't be intimidated by her? She could get you a dream job offer in a second. That's why I always try to please her.

"Hey Chelsea!" I say answering the phone in a happy voice to try and hide the tiredness in my voice.

"Hi Rachel! How's my girl doing?" She says in her New Jersey accent that is.... one of kind. Let's just say that.

"Um I'm doing pretty good! How about you?" I ask.

"Oh I'm doing just amazing! But I heard you won a contest to be Finn Hudson's fake girlfriend in Ohio for three weeks? Oh you poor thing. No super star should ever have to go through that." She says with sympathy.

"Oh yeah w-well you know I'm getting by." I say nervously hoping that Finn will stay asleep and not hear me.

Finn's p.o.v.
I wake up to Rachel's voice talking to someone on the phone.

"Oh yeah totally. I can't wait to get out of this.... um unique town and back to the city."

"Oh no no, don't worry. No need to tell my director. Finn would never stand a chance with me. Trust me. It's fine. You don't need to worry about it or tell anyone. I'm still working full time and that's how it's gonna stay. No change in Rachel's Berry's life that's for sure." She says nervously. "He's just not my type you know? We would never work out. I'm not looking into dating anyone anytime soon. Yeah but listen I gotta go. I'll see you maybe next week when I get back ok? Yeah bye." She says then hangs up and stands there looking at her phone with a guilty expression on her face. I get up.

"Wow. Is that really what you think of me? Of us?" I say. She quickly looks at me and her face softens.

"N-No Finn. I didn't mean it. I-I promise." She says coming closer to me but I step back.

"No you meant every word!!" I say raising my voice. She jumps a little.

"N-No I didn't. Please Finn. You have to believe me." She says softly.

"I can't believe how stupid I am! I'm so stupid. It's only been what? a month?!! I should've known I had the wrong impression of you. I thought you were different. I thought....I thought we actually had something. But I guess I was wrong huh? You'll always be that stuck up super star. And that's something that will never change." I say then storm out of the room
