There are so many amazing lines in this!! Let me begin:

The pregnancy had been very tough on Rachel. Finn was pretty sure it was because she was so emotional normally that her hormones were usually out of whack anyway. Either that, or she was having the child of Satan. They’d caught Rosemary’s Baby on cable about a month ago, and he found himself watching Rachel more closely afterward. She had started looking kind of sick and pale like that Rosemary chick and, well, carrying a demon spawn would certainly explain her mood-swings. Luckily, Rachel never craved raw meat, so he was reasonably sure that the baby was his.

They’d always had amazing sex and lots of it, but pregnant sex...just, wow! Pregnant sex was hot. Finn was pretty sure that he’d never have been able to fantasize half of the stuff that Rachel had come up with. He should have been writing it all down.
^^ Those two made me LOL!! Hee hee. Hee hee heeeeeee! xD

Also:
Rachel had argued that ten-minute long shots of her sleeping face had nothing whatsoever to do with the baby

YAY! I faked you out! As I wrote that first part, I kept imagining the WTF looks on readers' faces when Finn keeps asking Rachel if she's sure that she's ready, and then she says: "Finn! Do you want me to call someone else?" Haha!

I've created a monster! You're almost as greedy as I am. That Valentine's prompt will kills me, mark my words! A chapter for each of the seven days? Oy! I need some incentive...I told you I was greedy! A trade, perhaps? ; )

I am glad that you found this story so quotable. ; ) Those are all my favorite parts, too!

By the way, that's awesome about writing an original story! Just don't forget about your fellow Finchel gleeks!

If it's a trade you want, then that's fine with me.......prompt away! :) (But do be patient, please...school is already busy and it's only my first day back. If I take a month, "I fully understand if you want to beat me up...if you can, just try to avoid my nose.") :B Hee hee hee.

Haha! I'll be nice and give you options:

1) Keeping with your Valentines Day idea, how about Finn and Rachel's first date ON Valentine's Day? Finn does not realize that they made the plans for V-Day until it's too late. I want adorably awkward Finn!

2) Finn realizes his true feelings for Rachel in an unusual way.

3) Finn tries to win Rachel back from Vocal Adrenaline's lead singer. (Jonathan Groff's upcoming character).

I've been thinking about doing #3 FOR EV ER. :D I'll definitely attempt that!

And just a question on #1, what do you mean when you say "Finn does not realize that they made the plans for V-Day until it's too late"? Is that saying that he didn't know about something Rachel had planned or he'd forgotten? Or is it to say that he never made plans and they're having to patch something together for the evening?

[hope813]

They arrange their first date and it is only after they agree on a day (Saturday, for example) that he finds out that it is also Valentine's Day. Panicked Finn is the result!

[elimaru]

OMG, yes! :D That's perfect. Thanks!

I actually started a fic for #3, too, but I have too many other fics to work on at the moment!
