Glee One-Shots

Fire works (Fuinn)

The humidity was killing Finn, the air felt hot and sticky and he was seriously considering turning around and walking back home but he had walked this far and the park was right up ahead and he had always liked watching fireworks. So far it had been a very disappointing Fourth of July, his mom and Burt had to be in Columbus for the week and Kurt had decided to stay in New York, Puck was road tripping with his brother and he was by himself. Finn was supposed to be in New York with Kurt but Finn had decided to stay for summer quarter and take more classes. Sure he had spent the day playing video games in his boxers and eating ice cream right out of the container and that had been fun for a while but he was bored and if he was being honest he was lonely. Hence the walk to the park, Lima didn't have much to offer but it did have a pretty nice firework display every year.

Finn pulled at his shirt collar and looked around to see if he recognized anyone, it was crowded and loud and no one looked familiar in the dim light, he sighed in disappointment. He turned to walk to the temporary stage that had been set up; this year there was going to be live music. He made his way through the crowd towards the front when he felt someone step on his foot. "I am so sorry…Finn?"

"Quinn? I didn't think that you were home for the summer. You said that you were going to stay with Santana and Kurt." Finn said as he looked at her, she was wearing a white v-neck and sinfully short khaki shorts, she was looking good, even better she looked happy. He had been keeping in touch with the blonde via skype and text but nothing beat seeing her in person. Finn had to mentally scold himself for staring.

"Yeah, I got into town a few hours ago. I was going to be staying with Santana and Kurt for the summer but after two weeks of hearing them bicker about everything under the sun I had had enough and decided to visit my mom." Quinn explained as they walked through the crowd. "How have you been? Are you here with your parents?"

"Mom and Burt had to be out of town for the next few days but I have been pretty good, I have been really busy taking summer classes so that I can catch up and be a sophomore in September."

"That is great, I am really proud of you Finn." She said sincerely as Finn offered her his hand to guide her to the front of the viewing area. She couldn't help but shiver at the touch of his hand on hers, Quinn wondered if there would ever be a day that Finn's touch didn't have an effect on her.

Finn blushed a little at her words, "Thanks Q, it means a lot. I know that everyone thinks of me as this dumb jock but I am really trying. I want to be more."

Quinn gave him a smile and squeezed his hand, "You have always been more than that Finn, at least to me you have." Finn couldn't tell in the light but he thought she was turning a little red. The band was warming up and it was just about dark enough for the fireworks to start. "I guess there is no room to sit down." Quinn commented as they looked around, it was standing room only. Finn pushed ahead until they were at the temporary fence that separated the crowd from the stage.

"If you stand in front of me then you should be able to see everything shorty." He joked.

"Not all of us are part sasquatch Finn, besides I am above average height." Quinn said in teasing tone as she walked around him to stand in front of him. She took her time to admire him discreetly as she walked, she could see more muscle definition through his shirt.

"At least I use my gigantic size for good and not evil." Finn said in a serious way as he posed like superman.

Quinn laughed so hard that she snorted and slapped his arm. "You goof." Finn loved it when she laughed; actually he loved it when he was the one making her laugh. He always forgot how easy it could be with her, he could be himself, no matter how dumb his jokes got she would laugh or roll her eyes but there was always a smile of her face.
