Friendship Meme: Finn & Rachel
I'm doing a project where I write short fics based on a pair of friends, exploring what they do together and how they naviaget their relationship. This isn’t exactly friendship, but jakia wanted to know what Finn and Rachel do when they’re together and considering that she was the inspiration to this whole thing I wanted to do hers first <3

Rachel does with Finn what she does by herself, because if she enjoys it then surely he will too? They watch musicals, and sing along.
Finn watched a lot of TV growing up, because his mom was forced to sometimes just turn on the TV, hand him a bowl of mac & cheese and tell him to go to bed by 8 before running out the door. But he never saw any of the classics, a failing Rachel is happy to correct. Coincidentally, they watch RENT on DVD the same night that Kurt goes to see it with Blaine. The only difference is that when they finish serenading each other with I’ll Cover You, Rachel and Finn make out, while Kurt just stares at Blaine’s lips and Blaine very carefully does not.
Finn knows that if Puck knew he’d make fun of Finn for being so whipped, but honestly he really likes it. Rachel is totally fair and lets him pick the movie since she always picks the genre. Her dads make these amazing popcorn balls; Finn’s favorite are the chocolate covered ones but he usually only eats them at the very end because the chocolate melts on his fingers and then he worries the rest of the night about smearing on Rachel’s nice white couch.
He doesn’t have to try to be witty and he doesn’t feel pressured to come up with things to talk about to try and match Rachel, but he doesn’t feel like he’s being ignored either. And Rachel always knows lots of really cool trivia about the movies, like the fact that The Phantom of the Opera is the longest running musical in Broadway history. And he gets to sing. God, he loves to sing.
Rachel gets to be wrapped up in Finn’s arms, snuggly and warm, so close she can hear his heart beat faster being near her, and sing to her favorite musicals. It’s the kind of date she used to dream about, back when she only sang into her hairbrush for her camcorder. He never knows any of the trivia she tells him (Kurt always knows, and rolls his eyes when she tries to inform him) and he’s always so interested. She gets to be fascinating, instead of a know-it-all.
For two hours, they get to fall into a whole other world. She’s not the star leaving for New York and he’s not the Lima Loser (she’s not the lonely little freak, and he’s not the all-star quarterback). They’re just them, her back warm against his chest and his belly filled with popcorn balls.
And of course, they both get to sing. They never love each other more than when they hear their voices harmonize together. It’s like they were born to sing together. When they sing along with the lovers on the screen, they feel bigger than themselves. Not just a silly high school couple. The kind of love that people tune in to see.I'm doing a project where I write short fics based on a pair of friends, exploring what they do together and how they naviaget their relationship.
