finn and rachel | run to you

You can believe me when I tell you, that when I decided to give Glee a try, I did not expect THIS.
this is gonna be a whole essay, so if you're interested, keep reading :)
I have known about Glee since around 2010 I think, and while I did catch a few scenes of it on TV back in the day, I never actually watched it. I knew some things here and there, like Finn and Rachel being a couple and that there was a lot of singing. So, you can pretty much say that I was familiar with it, but nothing more. Then on July 14th 2013, I read on Facebook (I'm old) that Cory Monteith had passed away the day before in a hotel room and I started bawling my eyes out. Why? I could honestly not give you an answer to that; I mean up until that point I didn't even know his real name was Cory Monteith and only recognized him because of the photo. But I still cried for this person. For the next, almost seven years, it never occurred to me to watch Glee. Until now. About 2 weeks ago, I was recommended this treasure of a video ( • Video ) and something inside me snapped and I decided to try watching it.. can I just say that Glee is actually GOOD? All I have ever heard people say about it, was that it was annoying and stupid, and while I'm not gonna say it's flawless, I did enjoy myself a lot. And it genuinely had BEAUTIFUL and super important scenes. They pretty much covered EVERYTHING you can think of: homosexuality (+ bisexuality, etc), transgenderism, abusive relationships, learning disabilities, lots of different races and ethnicities, physical and mental disabilities, teen pregnancy, mental illnesses, eating disorders, AND SO ON. I was truly pleasantly surprised to see so many important issues being shown and being "handled" in such a great way. And now on to the elephant in the room.. Finn and Rachel, aka Finchel.
as I have already said, I knew Finn and Rachel were an important couple on the show, beforehand - BUT.. I had absolutely no idea what kind of epic and tragic love story I was about to discover. I did know Finn would die somewhere in the middle of the show (which was extremely hard a lot of the times.. knowing his and especially Cory's fate), so I was prepared but it HURT. What made it even more painful, was the fact that you didn't just watch one person lose their soulmate. No, you saw two. Lea Michele lost the guy she was ready to marry and fell in love with on the set of this show. I will never not be amazed by the fact that she was strong enough to be in the episode dedicated to him. Hearing her say "he was my person" never leaves my eyes dry because you just know that those were just as much Lea's words as they were Rachel's.
To be honest, I wasn't even sure if I was gonna make an edit of them, up until 3x09, when Finn named a Star after himself, gave it to Rachel and said "I just wanted to make sure, whenever she (Rachel) feels lonely, she can look up in the sky and.. no matter where I am, she can know that I'm looking down on her". Hearing him say that, knowing about his death, made me once again SNAP and I knew what I had to do.
What absolutely baffles me, is how "eerily perfect" their last scenes together are. No one could have known about Cory's death and yet, somehow, the last things they say to each other, work perfectly. The last actual conversation they had, was over the phone in 4x19, and Rachel told him that she wished he had stayed longer, to which he replied "next time. I promise". The VERY last scene they have together, is only in Rachel's imagination, but it's just as powerful. She auditioned for the role of her lifetime and chose the song her and the Glee Club sung in the very first episode, which was the perfect choice. She imagined her friends and Finn on stage with her and in a way, it could symbolize that Finn will be with her, no matter what, giving her strength. What makes it so breathtaking, is that none of that was planned, since Finn was never meant to die. - And the very last time they see each other in person, is in 4x14, when they sing together for the very last time and Finn tells her that they are "endgame" and that they will find their way back to each other. Their last meeting ends with Rachel leaving the hotel room after kissing a sleeping Finn on the head. That was the very last time she saw him alive. (at least as far as we know) All of that honestly gives me goosebumps.
+ Seeing her Finn Tattoo and finding out that they named the Auditorium after Finn, broke my heart and made me happy-cry.
Okay, that's enough now XD
song: • Lea Michele - Run to Y...
tv show: Glee
couple: Finn and Rachel

[@alwayskeepwriting1735]

You know how to make something so very special about everything. This epic love story won't be forgotten. It's not just another young, talented actor who was losing his fight. Cory was a person that makes us laugh and crying and he remembers me to always keep fighting. It's worth it.

[@josegaleas81]

The only thing I want is for someone to look at me like finn looks at Rachel 🥺❤

[@Elvisandstuff]

We all do

[@iwillcry]

[@madysononeal3340]

You could tell that finn fell in love with Rachel when he first saw her they were the best couple of glee also we miss you Cory and im still crying 🥺

[@brookclark3650]

They deserved better in both worlds

[@girlys5635]

When Lea wrote this song. She pour her heart out to Cory death. #RIPCory

[@shannonthemustanggirl5877]

Every time she says you’ll be safe in these arms of mine, it makes me think of hugging one of my friends and being with Rachel.

[@shannonthemustanggirl5877]

I love it when she says, just call my name on the edge of the night.

[@crisp8516]

Bro are you even kidding me supernatural and glee are my two favorite shows and I’m so glad right now that you watch both.

[@justcallmemichelle]

[@samwichbm3793]

Bro, Literally Supernatural and Glee are my favorite shows too, and now I'm crying, for the Winchesters and for Finchel / Monchele 🥺💔

[@kirstenristola8170]

[@saskiaallen9512]

[@amandagoodtime7751]

This got me sobbing it’s gorgeous why do drugs have to exist 😢

[@emilylitvak2692]

Ok I’m going to cry for the next two hours💔

[@shannonthemustanggirl5877]

I love u both so much, Cory Monteith and Finn Hudson I never got to know either of u, but u both will always be my heart forever. I just wish they didn’t have to leave us so soon because....it’s just not fair. Cory was a good tall, awkward, Canadian actor. Finn was such a great character and singer on the show. He played pretty good over the last 4 seasons. Cory is gone, Finn is dead, both of them are now in heaven with the gods and angels. There’s no lesson here, there’s no happy ending, there’s just nothing, he’s just gone. We will always love you both, Cory and Finn. Lea and Cory were just to get married to each other before he passed. No matter what, you both will always be with us forever. Rest In Peace, Cory Monteith and Finn Hudson 1982-2013😭😭😇❤️❤️❤️ i will never ever forget u both. GOD BLESS

[@angelinaocanas5854]

I love that you used a song Rachel sang

[@samanthalopez457]

This is the most beautiful Finchel edit I'm in tears thank you❤️❤️❤️

[@taylorzheart]

Oh Goodnesss why?!?! This Breaks my heart 😢😭 That last part though... "She'll know that I'm looking down on her" 💔

[@deasiasmith4357]

“It’s beating really hard” It all started right there that’s when Finn knew he loved rachel deep down. No can say other wise you may not like finchel but they where endgame on and off screen cory and lea where meant to be

[@wanasephiri3585]

[@sydneykidney06]

I wonder if Run To You was meant to be for Cory.

[@samwichbm3793]

Verga, son es la 1:58 a.m y estoy llorando, esto es demasiado, yo comencé a ver Glee en el 2010, yo shippeaba desde el inicio a Finn y Rach, y obvio a Cory y Lea, cuando supe que eran novios me super emocioné y estaba demasiado feliz, cuando supe lo que le pasó a Cory, wey yo no dejaba de preguntarme "Cómo estará Lea?" Lloré demasiado, Cory llego a mi corazón de una forma muy especial, y aunque no lo conocí en persona, yo sé que era una gran persona, me pone triste ver este tipo de vídeos pero amo verlos, porque me recuerda mi felicidad y la de ellos. Lea quedó destrozada, pero me alegra que volvió a aprender a amar y ahora tiene un bebé y está casada pero nunca ha olvidado a Cory, tiene sus tatuajes en honor a él, y aún lo ama. Y ahí te das cuenta de cuan profundo era su amor. Simplemente que hermoso video 💜❤️

[@stephaniepage4334]

I wish that Rachel get pregnant with finn baby?

[@YanYan-rg6op]

I know everyone hates Rachel but this is just
