"Can we stop doing this dance around each other? Its uncomfortable." Finn says as he approaches Naomi talking about their current situation of both of them avoiding one another.
"I don't know what you are talking about." Naomi tells him slowly as she turns away and begins to walk away before Finn grabs her arm and pulls her towards him.
"No, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Im sorry that I have feelings for you, and I'm sorry but I also don't think they are going away anytime soon. And if that makes you uncomfortable then I'm sorry and I'll stop acting on my feelings and I'll leave you alone, but I just want our friendship back, I got your message loud and clear. there is no 'us' and I knew there never will be while you are still with Sam, but I refuse to be the one that breaks you guys up anymore." Finn tells her desperately while he turns her to face him so that she can see he means every word of what he said.
"Okay, it may take some time for me to feel comfortable being alone just me and you, but I'm willing to work on this friendship if you are." Naomi offers out hesitantly to the tall boy who just smiles at her.
"I'm so willing to work on this, because I don't want to lose you as my best friend." Finn tells her with a grin.
"Can-Can I ask why you suddenly liked me so much?" Naomi asks him with a nervous giggle.
"Naomi, the way I see it is that you are a diamond. You shine brighter than the brightest star out in the whole wide world. And well, you captivated me, and diamonds never turn to dust, or fade away." Finn tells her with an adoring look in his eyes as she clears her throat and steps away from him with a small smile.
"Thank you." Naomi says with a small blush adorning her cheeks.
"Hey, what's going on here?" Sam says as he runs up to the duo from across the hallway feeling immediately protective due to what Finn has been doing for weeks. "Back off man, she didn't choose you so you need to stop." Sam says looking to the taller boy and slightly preparing himself for an all out brawl.
"You're right." Finn concedes, "And I'm sorry if I put any strain in your relationship, it wasn't my place and I was just telling Naomi that I apologize for making her feel uncomfortable and also for trying to break you guys up. That wasn't cool of me and it won't happen again." He tells the two standing in front of them before gingerly sticking out his hand to Sam in hopes of a truce.
Sam looks at Naomi apprehensively not knowing if he should fully trust what he was being told before ultimately giving in and shaking the taller boys hand.
"I'm glad you've stopped this insanity, but if you every pull any shit like this again I won't hesitate to absolutely beat your ass." Sam says the first part loudly before threateningly mumbling the threat to Finn in a low voice so Naomi couldn't hear.
Finn nervously swallows before smiling slightly at Sam as his nerves radiate off of him, "Note taken."

"Hey how's the song writing going?" Finn asks as Naomi and him walk into the choir room to greet Rachel as Puck walks out.
"Hey, its going amazing. I-I think I might have a really big hit here. Which is why I wanted you to come by, although I was not expecting Naomi as well, I-I want you to hear it." Rachel says as she stands up so Brad can play the piano for her.
"Oh I can leave if you'd like me to." Naomi offers getting ready to take off.
"No-No another artist is always good to have around when critiquing a song." Rachel tells her with a smile.
"Oh, yeah. Cool." Finn says with a small smile.
"Come here." Rachel says walking around the piano and closer to the taller boy before she hugs him as Naomi awkwardly stands off to the side.
