No Strings

chapter 12

"It's good. I'm actually thinking about expanding it."

"Really? That's great."

"Thank you."

Finn nodded, "How is work for you mom?"

Carole rolled her eyes playfully, "Work is work. Tiring and long."

Finn laughed, "You should retire."

"I'm old, but I'm not that old son." Carole glared at him playfully.

Finn laughed, "My bad." He said just as he finished his food.

"Just put it in the sink, I'll get it."

Finn smiled, "Okay, I'm going to take a shower and then I'm going to head to McKinley."

"Are you going to take your truck?"

"My baby is still here?" Finn asked excitedly.

"Of course, we could never get rid of your truck. We know you would be devastated."

Finn chuckled, "It would be understandable though. I mean it is old."

"But from our understanding you have a lot of good and bad memories in there so we could never get rid of it."

"Thanks guys. Well, I'll see you guys later." With that he walked back up to his room took a quick bath and threw on some clothes before walking out to his truck and going to McKinley.

"I thought it was just a rumor when I heard my best glee co-captain and now best professional football player was here in the flesh."

Finn turned around at the voice and smiled, "Mr. Schu! How are you!" He said as he hugged his former teacher.

"Oh please, call me Will, you're not my student anymore."

Finn laughed and shook his head, "Thank you, but no thank you. You will always be Mr. Schu to me."

Will laughed, "So, what brings you here?"

"I needed a little reminder of where I came from."

Will nodded in understanding, "What better way to do that than go to a before school glee practice?"

Fin laughed, "Why not? I can probably show those kids how it's done."

Will laughed as they walked into the choir room, "Good morning guys! I would like to, with great honor, introduce one of the original and first co-captains of this glee club-"

"Finn Hudson!" They all said at the same time.

Will blushed, "I may brag about you guys a lot."

Finn laughed, "It's fine. Hey guys! You guys obviously know me as Mr. Schu's first co-captain of glee club or maybe even as the quarterback for the Jets." Finn laughed when he saw most of the boys nod, "Well, I'm here today because I need all of your help to get me to find myself again. Music has always been my go to when I'm in a bad mood, especially drums-"

"He's not kidding. The boy can bang for hours without stopping unless someone tells him to."

Finn laughed and shrugged, "I love the drums. What can I say? Anyways, I don't know how long I'll be here in Lima but for the time being I will be helping Mr. Schu coach for a while, if that's okay with all of you and Mr. Schu of course, and I'm pretty sure you guys would rather a younger coach than this guy that's always giving you eighties music." They all laughed at that and nodded in agreement.

"So, I guess we all agree that Finn will be staying for a while?"

"They all nodded in agreement."
