Moving Day
rachelbarbra:
With Finn going back and forth between the apartment and the truck to bring the boxes, she was left alone, humming to herself as she began to unpack each box one by one. Most people, like Finn, would have thought this task to be boring, nothing much to do beyond removing things and putting them up. But to her she was decorating their first home together. She had had so many firsts...

Rachel could feel her excitement start to reach its highest point as the two of them made their way to the apartment. The box was the only thing causing her not to practically hop and skip to the door of their apartment. She grinned when he said for her to do the honors, setting the box down and reaching over, pecking him on the cheek as she took the key from his hand. “I love...

She climbed up into the truck with Finn’s assistance, buckling up as he jogged around to the other side to get in himself. She was settled once he buckled up and with one last look up to his old apartment, he started it up, pulling out. “I think I’ve been ready since my alarm went off this morning,” she grinned, bouncing in her seat a little. They were one step closer. All the...

Popping the last bit of toast in her mouth and chewing, she brushed off any crumbs from her top. She looked to where he pointed, seeing the boxes she missed when she had first walked in. “Let’s get a move on then,” she said, getting up from the chair that she had sat on and walking to the where the boxes rested. The sooner they got all this done with, the sooner she could begin to...

“Well it seems like you and I will be the perfect tag team,” she grinned, nibbling on her toast. Where she might have lacked in the physical strength department, she excelled in organization. All her stuff was packed away by what room they belonged into, all labeled much like the way her fathers organized all her shrines and trinkets from her childhood. That was where she probably...

“You’ll only miss me because I’m your girlfriend,” she said with a knowing smile. “But luckily you won’t have to miss me. They’ll be no reason to miss me unless we’re at work or something.” She heard his stomach before he spoke, knowing if she didn’t want a cranky or unenergetic Finn, she should follow his suggestion. “Sounds good, c’mon,” she said, taking his hand for the short...

Rachel emitted a small hum against his lips, smiling as he pulled away. “Is that even a question?” If anyone would listen, it was all she talked about lately, the main thing on her mind. “Of course I am,” she still answered, pulling away from his embrace to walk around his room. “I’m pretty sure most of my apartment floor knows I won’t be living there anymore. And I wouldn’t be...

A small chirp signaled a new text, and at a stop sign and almost halfway to Finn’s, she read his confirmation with a grin. He didn’t live too far from her but it felt even longer today. “Excitement,” she reasoned with herself, mentally trying to calming down. It felt surreal. It didn’t click in when they looked for places, nor when they were packing up her place yesterday. She...

Rachel could barely contain her excitement. Marked on her little calendar - she had upgraded from the cat calendars after a classmate told her that they were a bit too childish - with stars all around were the words ‘Moving Day’. Today felt like a big day because she was finally going to be sharing her an apartment with Finn. Both of them had recently graduated from their...
