Tell Me You Love Me

The way things should be

Previously...
Finn's p.o.v.
"Ok. They're gonna be so happy. What if we left in a week?" I say.

"Sounds good." She repiles.

"Perfect." I say with a smile as she smiling back. I guess we're going back to Lima.

{a week later}
Finn's p.o.v.
I step into my chauffeurs car and shut the door as he drives off to Rachel's house. When we get there I get out and knock on her door. A couple seconds later she opens the door.

"Hey." She says with a smile.

"Hey, you guys ready?" I ask coming in.

"Pretty much. Could you just put the baby in her car seat while I go grab my bags from upstairs?" She says.

"Sure." I say then go over to Brynn's swing and pick her up. I strap her into her carrier as Rachel comes down with her suitcases.

"Wow you're only bringing two suitcase for yourself this time? Impressive." I say amused.

"Haha so funny."She says sarcastically and starts to walk out but then turns back around.

"Hey could you also grab my other two at the top of the stairs?" She asks going out to the car. I laugh.

"I figured." I say then follow behind her with Brynn and her other two suitcases. We all get into the car and head to our jet.

{3 hours later}
Rachel's p.o.v.
We finally land in good ol'Lima Ohio. It was actually a pretty good flight. Me and Finn just took turns when our arms got tired with holding a sleeping Brynn the whole time. So it was nice.

We got off the jet and drove straight to Finn's parents house.

When we got there I took Brynn out of her car seat and grabbed her diaper bag as Finn grabbed the suitcases. I walked up to the door as Finn followed behind. I knocked on the door as I stood there nervously.

"Are you nervous?" Finn asks.

"Is it that obvious?" I say.

"While considering you keep biting your nails and constantly tapping your foot. I say it's a little obvious." He says as I bite one of my nails. I look over at him and quickly put my hand down.

"I'm just saying." He says defensively. I roll my eyes and laugh. Suddenly Finn's mom opens the door.

Right when she opens the door she stops in her tracks as she sees Brynn.

Finn's p.o.v.
"Oh my goodness. Hi." My mom says already in tears. Rachel smiles and hands the baby to my mom. We just watch her hug and love on Brynn. Rachel looks over at me and smiles. I smile back.

"Come in. Come in." My mom says moving out of the way and letting us in. She hugs both of us.

"It's so good to see you guys." She says smiling.

"It's good to be back here." Rachel says and I nod.

"She's so perfect." She says looking back down at Brynn.

"Thank you." Rachel says with a big smile.

"I'm so happy for you guys." She says.

"Thanks mom." I say and hug my mom again.

"Where's Burt?" I ask.

"Oh he had to work overtime at work today. He should be back any minute." She says.

"I'm gonna go put my stuff upstairs. Are you ok with her for a couple minutes?" Rachel asks.

"Of course." My mom replies.

"Here I'll show you to your room." I say picking up the suitcases and going upstairs as Rachel follows behind.

I walk Rachel into the guest room and set her bags down.

"Ok this is yours and Brynn's room." I say. She nods and sets Brynn's stuff down.

"Where are you staying?" She asks.

"Oh right across from you guys. So I can help you at night with Brynn." I say pointing to my old bedroom across from hers.

"Oh ok. That would be great." She nods than looks down contemplating on what to say. She looks back up at me.

"Finn I just really wanted to tell you that I-" Rachel starts but then we hear Burt come in the door.

"Never mind. We should probably get down there." She says then starts walking down stairs. What was that about? I turn around and follow her. Once we get downstairs Rachel goes over to Burt and hugs him as I do the same.

"She's beautiful guys. We're so happy you decided to come down here." He says holding the baby.

"We're happy to be here." Rachel says with a smile.

~Later that day~

Me and Rachel are sitting out on the porch watching the sunset in silence. I look over at her and just stare at her. I miss her. Even though she's right next to me, I miss her.

"I forgot how beautiful it is here. I'm so used to looking out my window and seeing buildings not an open field." She says. I nod.

"It's a nice escape from the big city." I say.

"Yeah. I've only been here once and this place is already so special to me." She says. I smile then look back out at the field.

"This is where we fell in love." I say out of nowhere not looking at Rachel. She looks over at me not knowing what to say.

"It's kinda weird being back here." Rachel says avoiding my last statement and looking back out at the sunset.

"Yeah. So much has changed since we last were here." I say.

"Are you happy with the way things have changed?" She asks slowly looking over at me. I smile.

"Yeah. Well mostly yes." I say.

"Things have been hard." She says looking down at the baby.

"Yeah. But I believe that one day things will be the way they should be." I say.

"You think so?" She says choking up.

"Yeah." I say with a small smile. She shyly gives me a tiny smile back then looks away wiping the tear running down her cheek.
