When graduating high school, Finn had finally decided to give up on football. He had figured that it might not have been his thing after all. He loved football, but there were things he loved more.

Letting go of football had been hard for him. He used to sit in front of the TV and watch a football game, sadness in his eyes. “Are you all right, Finn?” Rachel would ask, patting his back.

“Yeah, yeah.” he always said, trying to look more into the game.

Rachel knew exactly how he felt about football. She knew he had loved it in high school, and that it had been a huge part of him. She knew about the dreams he had had, of getting a football scholarship, and she had secretly always been happy over the fact that he didn’t get one.

“Do you miss it?” she asked him.

“Well… yeah, but… I don’t know. Maybe it wasn’t my call…” Finn said, staring at the TV screen.

“I know you’ve found your call now, Finn.” Rachel said, leaning her head against his shoulder. “And besides, you can still love football like this.”

“Yeah.” Finn said, smiling slightly while leaning forward to get a handful of popcorn from one of the many bowls of snacks Rachel had made for them. “You always make it worthwhile, so it’s kind of hard to not enjoy it.”

She looked up at him and kissed him on the mouth. “Remember that one time when I was on the football team with you for one game?”

Finn chuckled. “How could I ever forget? You were adorable in football gear.”

“So were you.” Rachel said. “And I promise that next time we’re going to Lima, we’ll go back to McKinley and borrow their football field without asking, just so that we can play a game together.”

“Is that a challenge? Me against you?”

“I’m better than you think.”

“Just you wait.”

I’d like to say I kind of covered this one… it would look something like this anyway, hahah.
