Chapter 13
When Tim stopped the carriage Rachel looked to see where they were. She was anxiously awaiting this all night. When she saw where she was she had to admit she was confused. She looked up at her now boyfriend and asked "What are we doing at Breadsticks? I mean its closed, oh wait did we miss our reservation or something?" She went to continue talking but he put a finger to her ruby red apple lips of hers.
"Rachel, slow your road. We didn't miss our reservation, Breadsticks is ours for the night. I'm personally great friends with the manager and when I told him about my plan to win you back and asked for his help he handed over the key to this place so we can have the place to ourselves, plus he wanted us to have good vegan food and not the crappy prom food they have. He wanted us to have a real first date! isn't that great Rach?" He said holding her hand and looking into her eyes. Thank god they were still sitting in the carriage otherwise Rachel was sure she would have fainted at how sweet Finn was.
"Finn, for the first time in my life I'm at a loss for words. This is the best gift anyone has ever given me, and that includes the time my daddy gave me my first playbill from Broadway!" She said smiling while getting out of the carriage.
"I have no idea what a playbill is or what it does but I guess that's cool if you like my gift better then something that has to do with Broadway." He said. He then linked arms with her and walked towards the front door. He then handed her the key from the letter and said "Will you do the honors Baby?"
"I would love to my dear Sir!" She then took the key from him and walked up to the door and unlocked it. Before she had the chance to go inside Finn covered her eyes and walked her in. "Finn, what are you doing? I'm pretty sure I've seen the inside of breadsticks before."
"I just want you to be surprised! I put a lot of work into this and I want it to be perfect just like you." He finally let go of her eyes and when he heard her gasp he knew that he did good. Truth was that before Finn went to prom he decorated Breadsticks so it would look presentable to Rachel's romantic liking. He put up a big banner that said Finnchel's first Prom! There were also candles and red roses every where.
"Finn, this is beautiful! I cant believe you did all of this for a girl like me!" She responded over whelm by the once plain restaurant now gorgeous.
Once he heard the comment That girl come out of her mouth Finn's face became serious. He didn't waste a minute to pull her hands in his and say "Don't you get it, your not just some girl, you're my girl! I love you Rachel and hearing you say that your just some girl to me is crazy. Like I said in one of my letters you are my life now and you're the only girl that I'll ever have eyes for."
She then let go of his embrace and hugged him tight. "Thank you Finn, for everything you've done tonight and in the past." She said wiping away the tears from her eyes she then continued "So what delicious foods do we have planned for tonight?"
Finn smiled and looked into her gorgeous brown eyes and said "Well our table is over there and I'm pretty sure our waiter will be right out!"
"Oh my God Finn you hired somebody to wait on us that's a little ridiculous." She laughed. Just then she saw who there waiter was and she couldn't help but laugh.
"Hey Guys! Listen tonight I'm not your teacher I'm just some guy who's taking the orders instead of giving them for once." Mr. Shuester said.
Rachel couldn't stop laughing, but when she finally did she asked "Mr. Shue, how did you get roped into Finn's whole scheme?"
"Well first off Finn told me about his whole scheme from the beginning. He told me about the letters, and how he had this whole breadsticks idea. I supported him every step of the way because I believe that you two are going to make it. So when he said he needed a waiter I kindly stepped in." Mr. Shue said.
When Rachel's stomach growled and was audible for the three of them to hear Finn quickly grabbed her hands and said "Well there's your cue Mr. Shue to bring over some delicious vegan food please." Mr. Shue then nodded and went into the kitchen while Finn and Rachel ran to the corner seat in the restaurant.
When Rachel sat down in her seat Finn pushed it in when she sat. "Thank you Mr. Hudson!" She said as she put her napkin on her lap. Before Finn could respond Mr. Shue came up to the table pushing a cart of vegan food. They both clapped their hands as he came out with the food. "Thanks Mr. Shue!"
As Mr. Shue placed different foods on the table Finn grabbed Rachel's hand and said "Listen before we eat I just wanted to say how happy and satisfied I am with us. I love you Rachel!" He then lifted up his glass and said "To us!"
"To us!" She repeated, clinking his glass. Finn then took out an envelope from his jacket and handed it to Rachel. She saw that it said letter 12. "Another Letter? Wow Finn you must really love me enough to give me two letters in one day!"
"Of course I love you, but be careful with this one there's things really valuable in there." Finn said letting go of her hand to eat a lettuce wrap.
She opened the letter and found one construction red paper heart and two tickets to Mary Poppins on Broadway. She smiled and started reading the letter out loud.
It read: Dear Rach,
I am so happy to be sitting with you here in breadsticks and just finally being together. I added a construction paper heart in here because I want you to know that my heart represents that piece of paper. They compare because their both fragile and their both whole. If we were still broken up that heart would be in two pieces. My heart was broken while we were apart and now it's whole. So thank you for repairing it. Now on to the tickets. I remember how you said our relationship is like Mary Poppins bag. Always awaiting what's going to come out next. Since I have no idea what that means I got us two tickets to see the show to hopefully understand what that symbolizes. I have really enjoyed writing these letters to you and am going to be sad to see them go. I know I sound like a girl but I really don't care. Those letters are going to be something that we show our kids someday. We'll tell them how stupid their father was to lose their mom for eleven days and then win her back by their fathers cool yet sufficient letters. They will laugh guarantee at me but at least I won their mom in the end.
Love Your future husband Finn!
When she finished reading the letter she saw Finn walk over to her, got down on one knee and took out a ring, he then said "This isn't an engagement ring, it's a promise ring! So I Finn Hudson promise you Rachel Berry to love you until I have the guts to purpose to you."
Rachel now crying stood up and hugged Finn and said "Don't you know by now that I'll always wait for you." She then kissed him passionately like there was no tomorrow.
