So UK had the tribute today, so this chapter is about the Finn death and how it fits into the story. It follows the show's episode up until when Santana is hanging up the posters for the jacket. Mr Shue didn't take it, Rachel did. That's how it should have been.

Anyway, Read and Review.

Rachel found Santana hanging up posters in the hallway. She was muttering something about beating up whoever decided to take the jacket when she fell asleep in a ball of self pity. Rachel exhaled a deep breath and squeezed the piece of clothing she had in her hand. It still smelt of Finn. Before she walked forward.

Hearing footsteps, Santana didn't even turn around. Rachel stopped and just stared at the back of her best friend's head "Santana?" she questioned into the abnormal silent hallway. Santana turned around on her heel "Berry" she acknowledged looking at Rachel carefully "What are you doing here? I thought you'd be with Kurt?"

And when Santana looked down. She noticed what Rachel was holding in her hand. Her eyes widened slightly and she let out a small gasp. She was about to ask where Rachel found it. But she knew, the smaller girl was probably the one who took it "I was going to give it back to you, I'm sorry I took it I just..." and that's when all the emotions caught up on her and Rachel broke down into tears and sobbed.

Santana rushed forward and gathered her friend up in her arms and hugged her to her chest "Shh, it's okay, I'm here, we all miss him, I understand" she attempted to comfort her while Rachel's sobs broke her heart "I'm so sorry" Santana whispered, so quiet that Rachel missed it.

Rachel pulled away "I..I want him! I want him back! I wish I could go back and make everything right, but it hurts to know that when he died, we weren't together, I pushed him away. But I need him. If not as my husband or boyfriend, at least my friend, someone I could talk to"

Santana just stared at Rachel, the emotions going around in them brown eyes. Rachel took in a deep breath again "He..we..he.." Santana knew Rachel was trying to say something about them two and Finn. How he was always suspicious about them two. Santana sighed and gently stoked Rachel's cheek "I'm sorry"

Santana continued "I've been such a...such a horrible person, to you. I play with people's feelings, I hurt who I care most about. You're my best friend, I wouldn't have survived a city without you, I know ninety percent of the time we hate each other, but that ten percent, you're like my little sidekick" she tapped Rachel's nose. Santana looked down to the jacket "You could have just told me if you wanted the jacket"

"It was ore dramatic this way" Rachel explained and even though her voice cracked, one month after the funeral she was starting to sound like her old self. Santana wanted to cry. Wanted to cry so hard. But Rachel didn't need to see her rock break. She needed to be strong for her.

"Is everything alright, girls?" Mr Shue broke into the moment as he found them in the hallway. Santana answered "We're fine, we're going to head back to New York found the jacket" she told him. He sighed in relief "That's great. You two, I know this must be hard, and I'm glad you could both, and Kurt and Blaine, come down to join us" he nodded at them "By the way, I never would have thought you both would have become as close as you are"

"Whatever" Santana rolled her eyes. She grabbed Rachel's hand and frowned "God Rachel, you're freezing" Rachel just shrugged so Santana sadly and took the jacket out of Rachel's hand before she put it around Rachel "God, you look so tiny in that, the jacket is nearly bigger then you"

"Shut up" Rachel shoved her playfully.

"So how was it?" Dani asked as Santana walked through and sat beside her on the couch. Rachel sighed as she continued to sit between Blaine and Kurt as they tried to make her feel better with watching all her favourite movies and eating all her favourite foods. But for some reason when Santana sat down and started snuggling with Dani she felt down all over again.

"It was..hard, but, we just have to accept it and move on, don't we?" Santana locked eyes with Rachel and gave her a soft look and Rachel returned it. Kurt rubbed Rachel's shoulder "Do you want to watch another movie Rachel?"

"No" Rachel shook her head and dropped her head onto Blaine's chest "I just want to..miss him"

"What happened?" Blaine mouthed to Kurt.

Kurt shrugged. But he knew the sudden down came when Santana and Dani started cuddling in front of her again. And maybe even him and Blaine. Here they all were in their happy couples when Rachel had just lost hers. But Blaine and Kurt were helping and comforting her as best as they could. Rachel sniffled and Santana sighed and couldn't take it anymore "I'm going to go hang up the jacket" Rachel pulled away and looked up at her "I thought you were keeping it?"

"He was your boyfriend. And we live in the same apartment, we're both going to see it everyday, maybe we can even put it up in here. Do you want to come with me and get it from my room?" Santana offered. Rachel nodded and stood up taking the hand that Santana offered out for her before she walked into the Latina's bedroom.

Kurt and Blaine looked at Dani "So, when did you first realise you were gay?"

"You know, we have more in common then we think" Santana commented as she stared down at the letterman jacket laid down on the bed "We both slept with Finn, slept with Puck...that's it"

Rachel managed a small chuckle "We both have amazing voices" she continued "And we both miss him"

Santana sighed sadly "Everyone misses him, he'll always be a part of us, even if he is Finnocence Frankenteen. Listen Berry, I need to ask you something" Santana said seriously. Rachel nodded "Are you okay?"

"Yes" Rachel answered.

"No, I mean about me being your last kiss instead of him?"

Rachel almost paled "I never thought about that" she admitted "I didn't even think you remembered"

"I did" Santana stated shamelessly. Rachel looked down "You and Dani are together now, we don't talk about it"

"That doesn't change that I care about you, and I now it may not seem like it, but my shoulder is here for you to cry on, if you can reach" she joked. Rachel smiled but Santana could see the tears behind her eyes that were on the edge of falling so she grabbed Rachel's shaking shoulders and pulled her into her arms.

They all stared up at the letterman jacket in the living room. Farewell Finn.

In memory of Cory Monteith.
