1x22: Sectionals

Episode Synopsis: Finn Harmonic competes during Sectionals with hopes to advance to the Regional Showcase. Finn, Rachel, Santana and Kurt gain a new roommate in the New York loft, but Rachel and Finn may soon find that their lives are about to change forever.

{Scene shows Kurt sitting in the waiting area of the airport, looking down at his watch as he lets out a sigh. He looks at the clock that says from 'Lima to New York City' and sees that it's landing. Kurt looks excited and continues to look at the clock}

Kurt's Voice Over:

72 hours. That's how long I've been going insane trying to plan the perfect welcome for Blaine. He's coming to New York in order to see Finn's Glee Club perform at Sectionals, and he's bringing some of the Glee Club members past and present with him. I don't know if so many people that Finn knows coming to see the show will be good for him. He was practically freaking out with only having nine performers, when we need 10 in order to compete. Finn's smart, I'm sure he could figure out where to get the tenth member for the club before Sectionals.

I can't wait to see Blaine…it's been too long since we've seen each other or had any physical contact. Last time I saw him in person was when I flew to Lima after finding out dad had cancer. I missed him…

{Blaine comes through the waiting room and Kurt smiles a wide smile}

If he leaves again, I'll miss him more than I missed him the last time.

Blaine and Kurt sat in a Starbucks coffee shop near the Brooklyn loft after deciding that it would be best to catch up there. God knows what Finn and Rachel were doing in the loft with Santana out of the house. Kurt handed Blaine his cup of Starbucks, giving his boyfriend a warm smile.

"There is your Pumpkin Spice Latte, extra whipped cream and my Macchiato, extra foam." Kurt grinned at Blaine who couldn't help but smile back at him. "So how was everything in Lima since we left? We haven't been there since the whole Finn's father debacle."

"It's okay." Blaine shrugged his shoulders. "I mean, Mr. Schuester has us working extra hard for Regionals which is just after Christmas break. I supposed that we should be excited for Christmas break but we're not. There's so much work that we have to do. Me especially."

"What's wrong, Blaine?" Kurt wondered feeling concerned. "Did something happen in Lima that I don't know about?"

"No, nothing like that." Blaine didn't want Kurt to worry too much. "I'm worried about my future."

"Your future?" Kurt asked. "What about your future? You're doing fine in Glee Club."

"Yeah, but I'm a senior now." Blaine reminded his boyfriend. "I haven't heard back from any of the New York performing arts schools that I applied to. I thought I would have by now. I mean, it's going to be Thanksgiving soon. Don't people start hearing from colleges around this time?"

"Give it till January, Blaine." Kurt assured him. "I know that things look tough right now but in the end it's going to get better. I promise you."

"Right…" Blaine sighed, sipping his latte. "I'm just worried, Kurt. I mean we planned that after High School that we would both be in New York together; going to NYADA and working on making our dreams come true. Instead neither of us is in NYADA and the person that no one expected to make it into NYADA did."

"Finn." Kurt knew exactly who Blaine was talking about. "But let's think of it this way, Blaine. If Finn could get into NYADA then so can we. Finn's not entirely cultured when it comes to Broadway and he's turning out fine…you know, if Cassandra July could get off his back."

"Yeah, I also heard about the Simone girl that was after Rachel." Blaine said, looking at Kurt. "Santana told me."

"Santana has a mouth and a half." Kurt sipped his macchiato again, thinking about his friend.

"But everything is good, right?" Blaine asked. "I mean with the Glee Club?"

"Not entirely." Kurt sighed. "We need ten members to perform and we've only got nine since Finn kicked Simone out of the club. I'm not mad at him that he kicked Simone out, I'm actually proud of him for standing up to her and not taking any of her crap. The problem is where are we going to find someone in order to replace Simone for the competition…and before you volunteer, sorry…you have to be out of high school."

"Was that in the rulebook?" Blaine wondered.

"Yes, it was." To be honest, Kurt wasn't sure if it was in the rulebook. He just made it up as he went along. "Anyway, you're here to support Finn and his Glee Club. Not to try to take it over with your dashing baritone vocals."

"Well at least you think my vocals are dashing." Blaine and Kurt couldn't help but chuckle. Blaine was thankful for Kurt lightning the mood, but he just remembered his troubles again. "What's going to happen if I don't get into any performing arts school in New York? New York is such a dog eat dog town."

"I know that." Kurt said. "Look, if the whole performing arts thing doesn't work out then just come up with a backup plan."

"A backup plan?" Blaine raised an eyebrow at Kurt's logic.

"Yeah, I mean there's nothing wrong with thinking of a backup plan." Kurt tried to get Blaine on board with the idea. "You can be a dancer or you could join the off-off Broadway version of Male Rockettes. It's about guy dancers who try to get everyone to boycott the Christmas Spectacular show because they don't allow males to join the female dancers. I think they're trying to show equality can also deal with men."

"I don't think I'm poised to be a backup dancer for an off-off Broadway show." Blaine said. He continued to think, finally snapping his fingers as if he thought of the greatest plan of all time. "I could be a doctor!" Kurt looked at Blaine with misperception, not understanding where Blaine was coming from.

"A doctor?" Kurt let out a slight cough, trying to hide that the idea wasn't a very good one. "Do you mean like a regular doctor where you go into the rooms and take care of the patients or a singing doctor where when something goes wrong, you burst out into a song number?"

"A regular doctor." Blaine answered. "But the singing can come as a bonus. I mean think about it, I have time to apply to all of these schools that are for doctors, just in case I don't make it as a singer."

"Um, why don't we try NYADA before you go all drastic and decide to become a doctor?" Kurt suggested. "I mean just in case there's something else out there."

"All right, you made your point Mr. Hummel." Blaine smirked, taking a sip of his latte. "So how's Finn doing with the whole Sectionals thing?"

"He's fine. I think he's more nervous because Mr. Schue is coming to see it. He just wants to make Mr. Schue proud." Kurt said. "I know he's going to be fine, I know it."

"So speaking of Finn, what's he doing right now?" Blaine wondered. Kurt felt a blush creep on his face, looking at his macchiato in embarrassment.

"He's alone with Rachel doing the Risky Business, if you catch my drift." Kurt covered his face and spoke in a soft tone so no one would hear them. "Santana just had to go and take an extra shift at the diner today, didn't she?"

"Well, Finn does need some time to wind down." Blaine tried to see it from Finn's point of view. "The next couple of days are going to be hectic for him."

"Yeah, I just wish his winding down didn't annoy the neighbors." Kurt chided, getting up from his seat. "Come on, you haven't lived if you haven't gone to the bakery that's down the street from here. Their pastries are to die for!" Blaine got up from his seat, linking his arms with Kurt as the couple made their way down the street to enjoy some Brooklyn pastries.

Rachel walked to the living room of the loft but stopped at the hallway mirror and took a good look at herself. Finn had been too busy to even think about making love to Rachel, so Rachel was going to bring the love to him. She purposely tossed her hair all over the place, giving it a sexy yet messy look. She was wearing one of Finn's blue plaid t-shirts which was longer than she thought; it looked more like a mini dress than a shirt on her, and of course she was wearing some jean shorts. Rachel spotted Finn on the couch, reading the sheet music and writing a few things down in a notepad. Rachel let out a sly smirk, tip-toeing behind him and wrapped her arms around his neck without a second thought. Finn looked down at the arms that were there, letting out a smirk of his own.

"Hi Rachel." Finn chuckled, still looking at the papers that were in front of him. "I see you like my clothes."

"I'd like them better if they actually fit me." Rachel playfully added, staring at Finn. "Man you have long arms." Finn chuckled, holding Rachel's arms to keep them around his neck. "Finn, come play with me." Rachel almost sounded like a five-year old.

"Trust me Rachel. There is nothing more I would love than to play with you, but I'm really busy right now." Finn apologetically said, turning his head to look her in the eyes. "I love you, you know that right?"

"I know you do." Rachel sighed. "Can I at least keep your shirt on? I love the way you smell."

"You love the way I smell?" Finn raised an eyebrow with an amused expression. "That's a new one. Of course you can keep my shirt, babe. It looks better on you anyway." Rachel leaned in and pressed a kiss on Finn's lips, Finn holding her tightly so he could deepen the kiss. Finn and Rachel heard a knock at the door, causing Finn to break the kiss and stare at Rachel. "I'll go see who it is. Maybe Kurt's back with Blaine already." Finn got up from the sofa, walking over to the door. Finn slid the door open, his eyes widening and a smile appearing on his face. "Puck!"

"Finn-mister!" Puck and Finn went in for a man-hug, but Puck's eyes fixated on Rachel. Puck raised an eyebrow at Rachel, noticing that she was looking embarrassed in what she was wearing right now. "Why hello there my hot Jewish American Princess." Puck cheekily said as Finn rolled his eyes. Rachel looked down at what she was wearing, her cheeks flushing a bright red.

"Hi Noah." Rachel gave a look to Finn, slowly walking back to her room in order to get some of her own clothes on. Puck and Finn looked at the room door closing before Puck turned to Finn.

"So you were getting wanky, Hudson?" Puck cracked a joke as Finn let him in.

"No, she just wanted to wear my clothing." To be honest, Finn was five minutes away from letting Rachel have her way with him before Puck knocked on the door and interrupted everything. "I think that shirt looks better on her than it does on me. But dude, not that I'm not glad to see you but what are you doing here? My Glee competition isn't for another couple of days."

"I know that. I actually came to get some advice." Puck sighed, taking a seat on the couch. Finn sat on the couch next to Puck, staring at his friend with interest.

"What's wrong, Puck?" Finn questioned becoming concerned. "Did something happen on your adventures of traveling the world and trying to find something to do?"

"All right, what I'm going to tell you, you can't tell anyone. If you do I will pulverize you." Puck threatened Finn.

"No you won't." Finn shook his head with a chuckle. "Now come on, you gotta tell me what's going on Puck. What has you like this?" Puck looked around letting out a sigh.

"I fell in love with someone, Finn." Puck sighed, folding his hands and looking down at the ground. Finn looked amused at Puck while Puck looked away in embarrassment.

"Dude, tell me who the girl is." Finn nudged Puck's arm, a smile appearing on his face. "Come on, it has to be someone that you really like—just anyone except for Rachel. Dude, if it's Rachel, I will kill you."

"It's not Rachel, Finn." Puck said. He took another deep breath, looking out the window. "It's Quinn."

"Quinn?!" Finn exclaimed loudly, but Puck immediately shushed him. Finn shook off the shock, looking at his best friend. "You're in love with Quinn?"

"I've always been in love with her to be honest." Puck said. "But while I was in Lima for my pool cleaning business, there was like this hot cougar that totally wanted to get it on. I was all for it until…I got a text from Quinn, and then something changed inside me. I mean you know me Finn. I never turn down sex for anything, but when Quinn texted me, I just…didn't want it. I left without my usual payment and I was okay with it."

"Wow. What did Quinn text you?" Finn asked. Puck took out his phone to show Finn the text message. Finn read it, looking up at Puck in confusion. "Hey, how are you?"

"See?! She's obviously thinking about me!" Puck exclaimed.

"Or she's just checking up on you." Finn handed the phone back to Puck.

"I don't know. I'm seeing a lot of signs here; I don't know what to think." Puck sighed.

"I have an idea. Why don't you come to my Glee practice tomorrow?" Finn suggested. "We're working on the set-list one last time and Santana tells me Quinn is going to be there. Maybe there you can work the courage to ask her out."

"You really think I can?" Puck wondered. "I mean, I don't know…"

"Puck, if you can throw Kurt in a dumpster then you can ask Quinn out." Finn smirked. "Look, I was scared when I thought Rachel didn't want me back. But she did and now look at us. So come on Puck…what do you say to taking chances?"

"Stop quoting Celine Dion." Puck crossed his arms, but still had a smile on his face, meaning to Finn that he was going to tag along.

"I won't tell a soul that you listen to Celine Dion." Finn answered back, reciprocating his smile. He then thought of a brilliant idea, one that would be amazing and help his Glee club. "Hey Puck, what are you doing from now until the show?"

"Nothing, why?" Puck wondered.

"I'm missing a member for my club and I wouldn't ask this if I wasn't desperate…" Finn let out a sigh before getting on with the question. "What do you say about joining my Glee Club just for Sectionals?"

"You are my bro and bros do help bros." Puck nodded his head. "It would be a shame to see that talent wasted. All right, I'll join to help you."

"You never know, you might like it." Finn shrugged his shoulders. Puck walked past Finn towards Finn's kitchen, shaking his head as he turned around.

"Don't press your luck, Hudson." Finn and Puck burst out into laughter, remembering the gold old times where it was just the two of them, taking on the world. Puck being in New York for a couple of days could be just the thing to help Finn with his overall problem: how to mellow out.

"Wow, so this is the famous NYADA auditorium." Quinn spoke out as she walked in with Santana and Rachel the next afternoon. Quinn had gotten to New York the night before, so Santana and Rachel decided to take Quinn under their wing and show her everything New York City had to offer. Quinn had to say that she was entirely impressed with NYADA and New York. "This is amazing. So this is where Sectionals is going to happen?"

"Exactly." Rachel smiled. "I mean, Finn had put so much work into it. It's exciting."

"Finn always loved music." Quinn smiled, staring at the stage. "He still loves it. I think that's the only way that Finn knows how to express himself."

"Then he needs to find a new hobby." Santana joked as Quinn and Rachel laughed. "You know, Finn always dreamed of being a football player, the Quarterback."

"Until Coach Cooter took that dream away from him." Quinn added. "But I have to admit that I am so proud of him. He's really done an amazing job with this Glee Club. I heard them the other day and I realize that they are ready…they're ready to compete."

"I'm really proud of him too." Rachel added, a smile flashing on her face.

"Well it's very nice to hear that ladies, thank you." Quinn, Santana and Rachel turned around to see Finn with a folder in his hand, smiling at them. Right beside Finn was Puck. Quinn couldn't keep her eyes off Puck. She just continued to study him. Did Puck get taller? Quinn couldn't put a finger on it. One by one the Glee Club members entered the room, staring at Puck and Quinn with interest. Who were they and what were they doing here? "All right, let's get started shall we?" Finn looked to the Glee Club, but noticed he was missing someone. "Hey, where's Kurt?" As if on cue, Kurt came in with Blaine, sitting down with the other Glee Club members. Everyone took their seats as Finn sat on the stage, looking at each of them with a grin. "All right, now before we begin I want to introduce you to a couple of friends of mine. This is Quinn Fabray, Blaine Anderson and Noah "Puck" Puckerman. Please call Noah by his nickname "Puck" or he will destroy you." The Glee Club couldn't help but laugh and neither could Puck. "All right, back to the business at hand. I know that we're missing a member to perform at Sectionals but thanks to Puck, we now have ten members in order to compete. Puck has ever so graciously agreed to offer his services to help us just so I don't look incompetent. Now, this is the first competition for a lot of you in here, this is the first competition that I ever took charge in. I can't promise that we're going to win Sectionals, but what I can promise is that we are together as a team, win or lose. I received a list of our competition, so here are the names. The G-Notes and The Pixie Dixies. I have no idea who would name their club The Pixie Dixies."

"I don't know who would name their group Finn Harmonic." Santana retorted playfully.

"Touché." Finn pointed at Santana with a smile, looking at the group after the laughter died down. "It's been really fun working with you all and I hope that we could work together in the future. I love each and every one of you guys…and I want to thank you for letting me know that I was born to do this. I was born to be a music teacher. This is my calling."

"Can I say something?" Vicky raised her hand to Finn. Finn nodded his head as Vicky got up from her seat. She walked to the front of the auditorium, staring at Finn with a smile. "I hated Finn when he first joined the Glee Club, I'll admit. I thought he was a know it all, he was cocky and that he didn't have an idea about running the club. I was wrong…he's a great leader, he's an amazing friend…and Finn's my hero. If there's anyone that I can hope…is that I hope that I can be as selfless, caring and talented as Finn Hudson. Regardless whether we win or lose, Finn…you're a winner and you made us all winners in here. So, we love you and thank you." Finn felt a lump in his throat as his eyes began to water. He didn't want to cry, especially not here and now—but he couldn't help it. The speech was so beautiful. Finn wiped the tears that were on his face, losing his composure slightly.

"Wow." Finn said as he wiped the few remaining tears from his eyes. "Thank you…that meant a lot. I really appreciate it. Now…before we begin our final lesson before Sectionals, Quinn, Santana and Rachel wanted to say something." Quinn, Santana and Rachel got on the stage, looking over at the Glee group.

"There are a few things that you have to remember." Quinn said with a smile. "The first thing is that you all have to be in sync when you're on stage. Your dancing has to be flawless and it's important that you don't mess up the notes when you're singing. It also wouldn't hurt to give a wink to the judges now and again. You know."

"You sound like you've done this before." Melissa said.

"I was in the Glee Club Finn, Rachel, Puck, Blaine and Santana were in. The New Directions." Quinn grinned. "It was one of the greatest experiences of my life."

"Can you give us an example on something that could impress the judges?" Celina asked, looking amazed at Quinn. Santana and Rachel looked at one another, nodding their heads towards Quinn.

"We could tell you…" Quinn walked around in a small circle before pointing towards the band. "But I think it would be better if we showed you. Hit it!"

{The band starts playing the music as Quinn, Santana and Rachel start dancing. Rachel winks at Finn while Quinn can't seem to keep her eyes off Puck, wondering what's wrong with her. Puck looks at Quinn intently as Finn lets out a smile}

Ooh

The Glee club clapped loudly for Quinn but while Quinn tried to give them her undivided attention, she found her eyes wandering over to Puck. Finn realized what was going on as well, staring at Rachel and giving her a wink. It seemed that Quinn was singing her song to Puck, but of course Finn didn't want to admit. Staring at Finn and Rachel made Finn feel like Finn Harmonic was almost ready for Sectionals. They were almost ready to show the world everything they had. Emphasis on the word, almost.

The night before Sectionals, Finn found himself in the living room after everyone had went to bed, staring absentmindedly at the television as his mind continued to race. Maybe I'm dumb for even thinking that I could do this, Finn thought to himself. I don't feel prepared and I'm afraid they might not feel prepared either. Finn heard footsteps behind him, causing him to turn around and spot Rachel, wearing his plaid shirt and her very short pajama shorts. Rachel sat on the couch next to him, looking over at the television to wonder what he was watching. The television wasn't even on.

"Finn? Are you okay?" Rachel asked, folding her hands together. "You're watching nothing on the television."

"I'm fine." Finn lied slightly. To be honest, he wasn't fine. He was worried. "What if I mess up tomorrow, Rachel? I mean, Mr. Schue is coming to New York and he's going to watch our Sectionals. What if I mess up in front of him? I want him to see that I've done a great job but I don't feel prepared enough to send our Glee Club out there."

"Finn, the work that you've put into that Glee Club is amazing." Rachel softly assured him, putting her hands on his cheeks. "Finn, you've done an amazing job, there's no doubt about it. I am so proud of you…you need to hear someone tell you that you've done an amazing job. And remember what I told you the other day? I'll be there to hold your hand win or lose, no matter what. You're my whole world."

"I am?" Finn wondered, arching an eyebrow.

"You are." Rachel assured him. She moved closer so that she was sitting on his lap, Finn holding her close to him as she leaned her head on his shoulder. "Whatever happens tomorrow, just know this Finn…" Rachel reached down for one of Finn's hands, interlocking their fingers together. "I love you so much…and there's nothing I wouldn't do for you. You're an inspiring human, Finn Hudson…and there's no better way to spend my future than to be loved and inspired by you. You're my person." Finn smiled widely, pressing a kiss on Rachel's forehead.

"I love you, Rachel." Finn lovingly said. "So…did you hear about Funny Girl yet?"

"No, I didn't hear yet." Rachel shrugged her shoulders. "Let's forget about Funny Girl for now. Right now, I want to help you with your Glee Club. Even if that means kicking butt at Sectionals!" Finn laughed, holding Rachel close, as she looked him in the eye. "I love you Finn. Forever and always."

"I love you more…" Finn pressed a kiss to Rachel's lips as they started to make out on the couch.

"If you two are gonna have sex, can you go back to your room?" Finn and Rachel turned to the couch bed on the other end of the room to spot Puck who was sleeping with his blanket. "I love you both but I don't wanna hear any of that." Finn and Rachel blushed, chuckling as Rachel got off Finn and headed towards their room.

"Goodnight, Puck." Rachel laughed slightly, closing the door to the room. Finn got up from the couch to fix his shirt, turning to Puck and nodding his head.

"Goodnight, bro." Finn patted Puck's shoulder, making his way to the room. As soon as Finn closed the bedroom door, Puck went into his night bag to grab some earplugs, placing them in his ear and letting out a content smile.

"I knew there was a reason I always brought earplugs with me." Puck sleepily said before going back into his slumber.

Finn walked along the NYADA hallways in his Sectionals outfit the next morning, staring at all the people that were coming in and seeing the performance. His stomach started to twist and turn, feeling slightly nauseous from all of the anxiety that was building up in his body. As he turned back around towards the auditorium, he spotted none other than Cassandra July. Finn groaned, feeling his stomach turning as hard as a rock.

"Oh look, it's the Wicked Witch of NYADA." Finn grumbled. Cassandra walked over to him, letting out a smirk.

"I'm here to wish you good luck." Cassandra looked at Finn who looked taken aback.

"You what?" Finn wasn't sure if he heard Cassandra right.

"I'm here to wish you luck…because you're going to need it." Cassandra chortled, letting Finn know that Cassandra was never going to change. "I just want to remind you that if you lose, your little Glee Club will be disbanded and will be one gigantic failure. Then all the money that you're supposed to get for your club will go to me and you'll be a miserable student for the next four years."

"So you're saying that if I lose then the club is disbanded?" Finn wondered.

"That's what I'm saying." Cassandra walked past him, but made sure that she purposely bumped into Finn to make her presence known. Finn held onto his stomach, feeling the sudden urge to vomit, not sure if it was from the stress or the fact that he wasn't feeling well. Finn ran to the boys bathroom and just made it to the toilet as he retched, emptying his breakfast into the toilet. After Finn was sure that he had finished throwing up, he went to the sink to rinse his mouth and splash some water on his face. He did admit that he did feel slightly better, but he was also really nervous. Finn exited the bathroom without looking up, noticing the brown dress shoes that were in front of him. Finn viewed up, seeing Mr. Schuester smiling at him, his hands stuffed in his pockets.

"Finn." Mr. Schuester smiled. Finn hugged Mr. Schuester tightly, a grin appearing on his face.

"You came." Finn looked at Mr. Schuester with wonder.

"What, you thought I wasn't going to come?" Mr. Schuester chuckled, allowing Finn to relax slightly. "Pre-Sectionals jitters?" Mr. Schuester motioned towards the bathroom.

"Yeah…I've never thrown up before a competition." Finn sighed. "I don't know why I'm nervous for this one."

"Let me tell you a little secret, Finn." Mr. Schuester put an arm around Finn, staring at his former student. "When you guys had your Invitational in order to let you into the Show choir Circuit…I threw up too…except mine was worse. I had been puking since I left my house that morning. I guess there was a lot of pressure to be the best. I wanted to be the best and I can feel that you want to be the best too." Finn let out a heavy sigh, his breath slightly shaking. Mr. Schuester put both his hands on Finn's shoulders, getting Finn to look at him. "Everything's going to be okay, Finn. All right? As long as you believe in your team, great things can happen."

"How are you so sure?" Finn asked.

"Because I told myself the same thing I'm telling you." Mr. Schuester grinned. "And wasn't I right? We won Nationals last year…"

"Yeah, you were." Finn said.

"Look, whatever happens I want you to go out there and have fun. That's all you can really do, right?" Mr. Schuester smiled. Finn saw the lights blinking, meaning that he had to head back to his team. "Hey Finn…break a leg."

"You want me to break my leg?" Finn innocently asked causing Mr. Schuster to chuckle.

"No, I don't want you to break your leg. It means good luck in theatre terms." Finn nodded his head understanding what his mentor had meant, giving him a hug. Finn started to make his way down the hallway before turning around, staring at Mr. Schue.

"Hey…I think you're really going to like the set-list…I thought of you in mind." Finn said with a grin as he ran away towards where the rest of his team was. Mr. Schue could only smile proudly. Finn had grown up—and become his own successful person.

"I'm so nervous I think my armpits have armpits that are sweating." Santana said to Rachel, Kurt and Blaine as she sat in one of the makeup chairs. "Where's Frankenteen for show circle?"

"He'll be here. Don't worry." Quinn assured Santana who was just coming back from the hallway. Quinn found her eyes looking over to Puck who was currently being taught by Brody on how to put on a clip-on tie. Oh Puck, Quinn couldn't help but chuckle at him.

"Quinn? Are you okay?" Blaine asked, getting her attention. Quinn whiplashed her head towards Blaine, assuring him that she was fine.

"I don't know Blaine, Quinn seems to have it a bit bad for Puck over there." Kurt pointed towards Puck.

"What?" Quinn scoffed, shaking her head. "No, that's ridiculous!"

"That's not ridiculous." Kurt smirked towards his friend.

"Quinn likes Puck, Quinn likes Puck." Santana teased in a sing-song voice.

"Really? How mature, Santana." Quinn didn't want to admit it, but she was afraid Santana was right. Maybe Quinn did like Puck.

"I don't believe this!" Everyone turned to see Vicky walking over towards the group, becoming flustered and upset. "You guys are not going to believe this!"

"What are we not going to believe?" Dustin got up from his chair, heading over to Vicky. "Did something happen?"

"Yeah! Simone joined another Glee Club!" Vicky exclaimed.

"Who would want her in a Glee Club?" Santana scrunched her face in confusion, staring at Vicky.

"The Pixie Dixies." Vicky answered. "She's their new lead singer."

"Can a group do that?" Melissa walked to Vicky in misperception. "Let someone in their Glee Club a week before a competition."

"Why not?" Kurt pointed over to Puck who was sitting in a nearby chair. "Finn let Puck join a week before Sectionals."

"This is bad! This is really bad." Celina was beginning to let the anxiety get to her. "We could possibly lose to Simone! Maybe it was better to have her in the club just so she wasn't a threat during Sectionals."

"Finn was going to kick Simone out of the club regardless." Brody reminded them. "It might as well have been now. Look, we should feel prepared enough to perform during Sectionals, right? So let's just go out there and show them what we're made of."

"That's the spirit, Brody." Finn entered the room, clapping his hands together. "Now, before we go out there there's something I have to tell you guys, so let's get in a show circle. Come on." Everyone walked over to Finn as he let out a deep breath. "Whatever happens today, I am so proud of you guys. We have a great group of people here and I have the confidence that we're going to make it to Regionals. But…that can only happen if we all work together. So what do you say, guys? Can we work together and pull out a win?" Everyone put their hands on top of Finn's as if that was their silent way of saying that they had faith in themselves and in him. "All right! On three! One, two, three…"

"FINN HARMONIC!"

The groups sat in the auditorium watching the other competition, Finn's group feeling more and more anxious as time went along. Finally, it was time for The Pixie Dixies to perform, headlining Simone. Finn gripped the seat, Rachel noticing that Finn was nervous.

"Finn? Are you okay?" Rachel whispered.

"I think I might throw up again." Finn nervously told Rachel. Rachel rubbed Finn's back, her eyes widening after a few moments.

"Wait a minute, again?" Rachel couldn't get Finn to elaborate much further…here were Simone and her Glee Group…and Rachel had to admit that they looked good. Their costumes were bedazzled in pink, purple and baby blue, as each girl wore pink headbands. Rachel looked down at her costume; their dresses were black with gold hemming while wearing a gold headband. The boys wore black slacks, black collared shirts and gold ties. Rachel admitted, Simone's costume was prettier…and she was certain that Simone was going to sound better than her once she opened her mouth.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN…THE PIXIE DIXIES!" The announcer yelled over the speakers. Finn and Rachel kept their eyes glued to the stage, observing every move Simone made.

{The music begins and Simone stands in the middle of the stage, giving everyone a "friendly" smile. The group dances around her as Simone sings}

[Simone]

Don't go for second best baby

Put your love to the test

You know, you know you got to

Make him express how he feels

And baby then you'll know your love is real

My mama told me when I was young

We were all born superstars

She'd roll my hair and put my lipstick on

In a glass on her boudoir

There's nothing wrong with loving who you are

She said, cause he made you perfect babe

So hold your head up girl and you'll go far

Listen to me when I say

[Simone with The Pixie Dixies]

Don't go for second best baby

Put your love to the test

You know, you know you got to

Make him express how he feels

And baby then you'll know your love is real

[Simone]

Long stem roses are the way to your heart

But, he needs to start with your head

Satin sheets are very romantic

What happens when you're not in bed

You deserve the best in life

So if the time isn't right then move on

Second best is never enough

You'll do much better baby on your own

[Simone with The Pixie Dixies]

I'm beautiful in my way

Cause God makes no mistakes

I'm on the right track baby, I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret

Just love yourself and be set

I'm on the right track baby, I was born this way

Ooh, there aint' no other way

Baby I was born this way

Baby I was born this way

So if you want it right now

Make him show you how

Express what he's got

Baby, ready or not

[Simone]

And when you're gone

He might regret it

Think about the love he once had

Try to carry on

But he just won't get it

He'll be back on his knees

[Simone with The Pixie Dixies]

I'm beautiful in my way

Cause God makes no mistakes

I'm on the right track baby, I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret

Just love yourself and be set

I'm on the right track baby, I was born this way

I'm beautiful in my way

Cause God makes no mistakes

I'm on the right track baby, I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret

Just love yourself and be set

I'm on the right track baby, I was born this way

I was born this way, hey

I was born this way, hey

I'm on the right track baby

I was born this way, hey

I was born this way, hey

I was born this way, hey

Just like hey, hey, hey, hey

The crowd erupted with applause while Finn looked in shock and horror. They were good, really good. There was no way that Finn was going to be able to compete with that. He looked over to Rachel, Santana, Kurt and Puck noticing that they were giving him a look of support. This was the moment they were waiting for: it was time for Finn Harmonic to make their show choir debut. The members went backstage, but Rachel noticed that Finn was tense—and he was also scared.

"Finn?" Rachel softly said, standing in front of him. Rachel put both her hands on Finn's cheeks to get him to look at her. Finn simply gazed at Rachel, believing that she was the most beautiful thing in the entire world. "Everything's going to be okay. All right? You can do this." Finn continued to look at Rachel, slowly nodding his head.

"I love you…" Finn softly whispered as Rachel smiled and tip-toed to meet his face.

"I love you too…" Rachel planted a passionate kiss on Finn's lips, Finn responding to the kiss right away. Finn and Rachel parted, giving Rachel a wide smile. "Let's go and kick some ass…" Finn chuckled wrapping an arm around Rachel's shoulders as everyone got into position.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! FINN HARMONIC!" The announcer said through the microphone. Everyone got on the stage, looking over at the audience as they heard the piano play for their first number of their set-list.

{The piano starts to play and everyone stares at the audience. Santana notices Simone with her group sitting down, staring at them with hate, but then become worried when Finn Harmonic actually sounds harmonious.}

{The audience applauds and the second song on the set-list starts to play. Finn looks at Mr. Schuester and sees Mr. Schuester, Quinn and Blaine laughing in glee}

[Finn]

Well I remember every little thing

As if it happened only yesterday

Parked by lake

And there was not another car in sight

And I never met a girl

Looking any better than you did

And all the kids at school

Were wishing they were me that night

[Puck with Finn Harmonic]

And now our bodies are oh so close and tight

It never felt so good, it never felt so right

[Kurt]

And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of the knife

Glowing like the metal on the edge of the night

[Brody]

Come on, hold tight

Come on, hold tight

[Santana with Melissa and Finn Harmonic]

Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night

[Brody and Kurt with Finn Harmonic]

I can see paradise by the dashboard light

[Finn]

Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark (Finn and Vicky: Night!)

[Vicky]

In the deep dark night

[Finn]

Paradise by the (Finn and Vicky: Dashboard light!)

We're gonna go all the way tonight

We're gonna go all the way tonight's the night

[Finn and Puck with Finn Harmonic]

We're gonna go all the way tonight

We're gonna go all the way tonight's the night

[Finn, Puck and Brody with Finn Harmonic]

We're gonna go all the way tonight

We're gonna go all the way tonight's the night

[Finn, Puck, Brody and Vicky with Finn Harmonic]

We're gonna go all the way tonight

We're gonna go all the way tonight's the night

[Rachel]

Stop right there!

I gotta know right now

Before we go any further do you love me

Will you love me forever

Do you need me

Will you never leave me

Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life

Will you take me away and will you make me your wife

[Finn]

Let me sleep on it (Finn Harmonic: Sleep on it)

Baby, baby Let me sleep on it (Finn Harmonic: Sleep on it)

Let me sleep on it, I'll give you an answer in the morning

[Rachel]

I gotta know right now

Do you love me (Finn Harmonic: Do you, do you love me)

Will you love me forever

Do you need me (Finn Harmonic; Do you, do you need me)

Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life

Will you take me away an will you make me your wife

Will you love me, will you love me forever

[Finn]

Let me sleep on it

{Rachel]

Will you love me forever

[Finn]

I couldn't take it any longer

Lord I was crazed

That the feeling came upon me

Like a tidal wave

I started swearing to my god

And on my mother's grave

That I would love you till the end of time

I swore!

I would love you till the end of time

So now I'm praying for the end of time

To hurry up and arrive

Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you

I don't' think I could nearly survive

I'll never break my promise for forget my vow

But God only knows what I would do right now

I'm praying for the end of the time

It's all that I can do (Vicky: All that I can do)

Praying for the end of time

So I can end my time with (Finn and Vicky: You!)

[Finn with Finn Harmonic](Rachel)

It was long ago and it was far away (It never felt so good, it never felt so right)

And it was so much better than it is today (And now we're glowing like a metal at the edge of a knife)

It was long ago and it was far away (It never felt so good, it never felt so right)

And it was so much better than it is today (And now we're glowing like a metal at the edge of a knife)

[Finn and Rachel with Finn Harmonic]

Felt so right

Felt so good

Paradise!

{The final song of the set-list starts to play and it's just Finn and Rachel on the stage as Rachel smiles over at Finn, giving him a loving look}

[Rachel]

Nobody listens to me

Don't hear a single thing I've said

Say anything to soothe me

Anything to get you from my head

Don't know how I really feel

To fake the day to make it like I don't care

Don't know how much it hurts

To turn around and you were never there

Like somehow you could be replaced

And I could walk away from the promises we made

And swore we'd never break

[Rachel and Finn]

I thought I lost you

When you ran away to try to find me

I thought I'd never see your sweet face again

I turn around and you were gone and on and on the days went

But I kept the moments that we were in

Cause I hoped in my heart, you'd come back to me my friend

And now I got you

I thought I lost you

[Finn]

I felt so empty out there

And there were days I had my doubts

I knew I'd find you somewhere

Because I knew I couldn't live without

You in my life for one more day

And I swore we'd never break the (Finn and Rachel: promises we made)

[Rachel and Finn]

I thought I lost you

When you ran away to try to find me

I thought I'd never see your sweet face again

I turn around and you were gone and on and on the days went

But I kept the moments that we were in

Cause I hoped in my heart, you'd come back to me my friend

And now I got you

I thought I lost you

[Finn]

I told myself I wouldn't sleep

till I searched the world from sea to sea

[Rachel]

I made a wish upon a star

I turned around and there you were

[Finn and Rachel]

Now here we are, are

[Rachel]

Here we are

I thought I lost you (Finn: I thought I lost you too)

I thought I lost you (Finn: I thought I lost you too)

Yeah

[Rachel and Finn]

I thought I lost you

When you ran away to try to find me

I thought I'd never see your sweet face again

I turn around and you were gone and on and on the days went

But I kept the moments that we were in

Cause I hoped in my heart, you'd come back to me my friend

And now I got you

I thought I lost you

[Rachel]

But I thought I lost you (Finn: I thought I lost you too)

[Rachel and Finn]

So glad I got you, got you

[Rachel]

So glad I got you, yeah

I thought I lost you (Finn: I thought I lost you too)

The crowd went nuts as soon as the final song finished, Simone huffing and puffing while Finn and Rachel bowed. The curtain closed on them and as soon as it did, Rachel pulled Finn into an embrace, pressing a kiss to his cheek. Finn grinned, noticing that Rachel's expression was full of love and pride.

"You were incredible, Finn…" Rachel spoke so fondly. Finn leaned in to capture Rachel into a kiss, causing her to giggle slightly. Finn broke the kiss apart, staring at her with loving eyes.

"Rachel...I love you." Finn didn't know what else to say. Rachel nodded her head, putting a hand on his cheek.

"And I love you. Always have…always will." Rachel and Finn saw the lights flashing again, meaning that it was time to know their fate. Would Finn Harmonic be victorious?

It was revealed that Finn Harmonic were one of the top three groups in Sectionals, meaning that they would walk away with a trophy. The one they had their eye on was first place, the trophy that would get them into Regionals. Madame Tibideaux went to the front of the auditorium stage, holding two cards.

"Thank you all for joining us." Madame Tibideaux said, staring at the Glee clubs behind her. "Let's all offer our congratulations to these three Glee Clubs for making it as far as they did!" The audience boomed with applause as Madame Tibideaux smiled. "It's time to announce the winner of the 2013 Sectionals Show Case. The winner will advance to Regionals. In third place…we have The G-Notes." The G-Notes Glee Club clapped, taking their third place trophy, knowing that this was the end of the line for them here. Madame Tibideaux stood in between Finn Harmonic and The Pixie Dixies, looking at both Glee Clubs with a smile. "And now…the winner." Madame Tibideaux opened the envelope, looking at the gold lettering. "The winner of the 2013 Sectionals Show Case is…Finn Harmonic!" Simone glared over at Finn and the rest of his Glee Club, but they were still taking in that they won the competition.

"We won. WE WON!" Kurt shouted to Finn, Finn's shock disappearing as a smile appeared on his face. The members of Finn Harmonic hugged one another while the audience stood up from their seats and applauded them. Finn hugged Rachel tightly, pressing a kiss into her hair as Rachel hugged him back, tears coming to her eyes.

"There's still one more thing we have to do." Madame Tibideaux smiled, causing Finn Harmonic to cease their celebration for the moment. "The 2013 Sectionals Show Choir MVP is…Finn Hudson!" Rachel, Santana and Kurt embraced Finn tightly, motioning for him to take his place front and center on the stage. Finn walked over to Madame Tibideaux, taking the MVP award and the trophy from her. "You're very inspirational Mr. Hudson…the work you put into this really showed that you have what it takes to lead. Congratulations and the best of luck to you at Regionals."

"Oh my gosh…thank you, Madame Tibideaux." Finn couldn't wipe the smile off his face even if he tried. Finn looked over to Rachel, motioning for her to come forward. Rachel walked over; wiping some of the tears she had in her eyes. Finn had to wonder why she was crying, so he took her hand and pulled her closer to him. "Rachel, why are you crying?" Rachel had the tears go down her face, but she was beaming.

"I love you so much." Rachel said through tears. Finn pulled her closer, staring into her eyes.

"I love you, forever." Finn swooped down and brought Rachel into the most breathtaking kiss that he ever could imagine. Without breaking the kiss, Finn and Rachel lifted the trophy in the air, with everyone in the audience cheering for them.

Finn and Rachel walked hand in hand with the trophy down the NYADA hallway about an hour later, unsure of what to do with it. He didn't have a classroom to put it in and wasn't expecting to get one. As Finn and Rachel made their way down the hallway, Finn heard footsteps behind them.

"Mr. Hudson? May I have a word with you for a moment?" Finn turned around to see Madame Tibideaux smiling at him. Rachel let go of Finn's hand and assured him that he should go on. "Are you sure?" Finn whispered to Rachel.

"Yeah, I was just going to head over to the hair and makeup room." Rachel said with a grin. "I think I left my phone in there."

"All right, I'll see you in a few minutes." Finn pressed a kiss to Rachel's forehead and then Rachel was on her merry way. Finn walked over to Madame Tibideaux, giving her a grin. "Yes Madame Tibideaux."

"I just want to say that first off…I've never seen a student like you before in my years of teaching." Madame Tibideaux said. "A lot of freshmen usually have no idea as to what they want to do when they're in college. Majority of them are into frat parties or…getting themselves into trouble. You're different Mr. Hudson. You came in here and took a hold of a Glee Club that the state was getting ready to cut, turning them into Sectionals champions."

"I didn't know that they were going to cut the Glee Club." Finn sounded surprised. "I joined because I thought it would have been a good idea for me to do something in my comfort zone. But being a leader to all these kids made me realize that this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I never want to do anything different."

"Which is why you're so different. You're passionate, tenacious and one of the most loyal gentlemen I've ever met." Madame Tibideaux continued to study him. "I notice that you have nowhere to put that trophy."

"I was just going to leave it in your office since there's nowhere for the Glee Club to look at it in the auditorium." Finn said. Madame Tibideaux shook her head, leading Finn to an empty classroom. The classroom mirrored the Glee Club's room at McKinley. Piano's, red seats, drum sets…and a trophy case. "That's where you're going to put the trophy. In this Glee Club classroom that will only be used for your club. And since Glee Club is not a mandated class, it would be allowed for you to teach them." Finn couldn't believe that Madame Tibideaux had instilled so much confidence in him. He never would have dreamed of something so amazing in his entire life.

"Thank you, Madame Tibideaux." Finn said. "This means the world to me."

"You can thank NYADA by winning Regionals and sending your club to a National Championship." Madame Tibideaux smiled. "You have so much potential, Mr. Hudson. I want you to know that." With that, Madame Tibideaux made her way out of the room while Finn observed the classroom. This was it. This was his classroom. He was going to teach Glee Club here. Finn turned to the trophy case, putting the Sectionals trophy inside and giving a proud smile to himself.

"So you're like another Mr. Schue, now huh?" Finn turned around to see Puck there chuckling. Finn got up from his position, making his way to his best friend.

"Yeah, you can say that." Finn shrugged his shoulders, the smile still on his face. "Thank you for helping me Puck. We were really in a grind here."

"You're welcome dude." Puck hugged Finn tightly and Finn couldn't help but hug Puck back. "Hey, Finn…"

"Yeah?" Finn asked, not moving from his position.

"I'm proud of you, bro." Puck looked to Finn, nodding his head with a smile. "I really mean it…you're…you're moving on up. A student doesn't get a classroom for his Glee Club every day."

"Yeah, I guess you're right." Finn looked at Puck, still keeping a smile. "Thanks Puck. I love you man."

"I love you too, bro." Puck patted Finn's back, but as he patted Finn's back, it looked like he was trying to say something. "Being in your club just for a little bit made me have some purpose in my life. I was wondering if…if…"

"Puck…are you asking if you could join the Glee Club fulltime?" Finn tried to get the question out of Puck's mouth. Puck nodded his head quickly, Finn's smile growing wider. "Dude…I never thought you'd ask. Besides, now we have an even amount of boys and girls. Hey…if you want…you can live in the loft with Rachel, Santana, Kurt and I. I mean, it gets kind of lonely for me sometimes. Sure I have Rachel…but I don't have a bro who likes the same things I like. Oh, but there's a couple of ground rules: no bullying Kurt about his clothes and no parties…unless I agree to them. Deal?"

"Deal." Puck nodded his head as Puck and Finn high fived. Santana rushed into the room, looking worried as both Puck and Finn turned to Santana with interest. Something was wrong. Something was terribly wrong.

"Finn! Rachel slipped on some silk and fell! I think she hit her head and she's not waking up!" Santana screeched. Finn looked worried, running out of the classroom as Puck and Santana followed, going to see if Rachel was all right.

Finn stood in the waiting room of the hospital with Kurt, Santana, Quinn, Blaine, Mr. Schuester and Puck, pacing back and forth just hoping that Rachel was all right. The last thing Finn needed was losing the person he loved the most.

"I'm sure that Rachel's going to be okay." Kurt assured his brother. "I mean, the fall didn't look so bad."

"She's unconscious, Kurt! The fall was pretty bad." Finn yelled, after failing to keep his composure. "I'm…I'm sorry, I…"

"No, it's all right." Kurt tried his best to smile. "It's okay. You're just worried about her that's all." Finn looked over to see the doctor was entering the waiting room, staring down at a file. Finn prayed that the file belonged to Rachel.

"I'm looking for the family of Rachel Berry." The doctor said.

"I'm her fiancé, is she all right?" Finn walked over to the doctor, the doctor nodding his head.

"She's fine. But, I have to warn you…" The doctor started to say, until Finn dashed right past him, looking for Rachel's room. Finn saw Rachel sitting on the bed as if she was almost in a daze, Finn letting out a sigh.

"Oh my god, Rachel!" Finn ran over to her and embraced her in a hug. "Are you okay?" To Finn's surprise, Rachel broke the grasp, staring up at him in shock.

"Who's Rachel?" Rachel shook her head, not understanding anything. "And…who are you?" Finn took a step back, staring at his fiancée with worried eyes. The doctor entered the room, seeing that Finn was in shock and Rachel was utterly confused.

"I tried to tell you…Rachel has amnesia. She doesn't remember herself, where she lives, where she goes to school…" the doctor then faced Finn, the next few words feeling like someone had stabbed Finn in the heart. "And she doesn't remember you."
