French Relations
Kind of to make up for @peggyrose19 ‘s fic.. so have some fluff
Characters by @lumosinlove
Inspired by this quote mix by @violetatapiamills and @half-of-twelve-is-six
The first thing Finn heard in the morning was Logan‘s „Bon martin“ mumbled into his neck accompanied by sleepy kisses to his and Leo‘s skin. Finn loved it really. Those sleepy French words he never minded. Logan was too tired to make sense, so Finn didn‘t feel like he was missing something.
What was driving him mad on the other hand were his French love confessions. They sounded incredibly sweet, but Finn had no idea what was happening. Logan could have been reciting his grocery list and he would have sunken into the kiss that followed, Logan‘s lips against his as sweet as the words he had said seconds before.
But one wasn‘t enough, no. The universe had to give him two incredibly hot lovers– a shame really – that both spoke the language of love – how could the world do this to him. Technically it was all perfect, they just spoke a language, he didn‘t know.
Naturally Finn decided it was time for payback. He couldn’t speak a language they weren’t able to understand, so he had to learn one.
Walking over to his computer, he thought about potential languages he could learn. In his head he went through European ones first. They were a bit closer to English and Finn would not learn a new alphabet for this. Spanish sounded cool. The other two would love it, but there was too strong of a connection. French and Spanish seemed to similar. He went a bit east from Spain and thought about German. That could work. He sat down and typed ‘German love phrases’ into the search bar and was quite quickly supplied with a few websites that looked okay. The first one was written completely in German, or well some language Finn didn’t understand. The second one was more promising, seeing as he could actually understand most of it.
He read through the first part and stopped as a new line started, which was supposedly the German translation of the first sentence “I love you.”. It was the core of any declaration of love so he saw why they had put it first. He pressed the speaker next to it and a female voice said the three words, he read on the screen. “Ich liebe dich.” The translation brought across less love in his eyes. It sounded fine in the lady’s voice, if not a bit squeaky, but when Finn tried to say it himself, he cringed immediately. The second part was okay, but the first part, even in his head sounded less like the soft sound her voice had made, more like a rock hitting the ground to hard. He definitely had to work on that. Luckily the other two were still out, so he had approximately 3 hours to memorise as many phrases as he could.
Finn was pretty proud of himself, when he heard a key in the lock. He’d memorised about 8 sentences and the pronunciation could have been worse in his mind.
Leo walked through the door Logan under their arm, smiling brightly over at Finn. Apparently he was in a good mood, because Logan started talking as soon as they had taken off their coats.
“Bonjour, mon armour. Notre rendez-vous s’est très bien passé. Qu’as-tu fait, poisson ? Tu es bon?”, he tilted his head up and pressed a kiss to Finn’s cheek. Logan knew what he was doing.
Finn answered as Leo walked over to him too, kissing his other cheek. “Willkommen zu Hause, Bärchen.”
Leo and Logan both froze. His boyfriend was the first to talk, “What the fuck just came out of your mouth, Harzy?”
That was the effect Finn had hoped for. It was perfect, until he looked at Leo and saw them, desperately trying to cover up their laughs. Did he sound that ridiculous?
“Finn, Schatz.”, Finn was dumbstruck, gaping at Leo and the words that came out of their mouth,”Du hörst dich süß an, aber warum spricht du deutsch?”
Finn wasn’t really able to comprehend what just happened. He knew a part of the second sentence. It was a compliment he had read on the website mixed in with other words, but why the hell would Leo speak German? Was this a dream? Was this a prank? When Finn didn’t answer Leo’s question, their significant other translated for Finn and a completely frozen Logan. Finn didn’t know if he had even closed his mouth since Finn had started talking.
“Finn, Sweetheart, although you do sound cute, why the hell were you speaking German?”
That’s what broke Logan out of his freeze. “You just had a German conversation with Finn?! Also, why do you know German, Knutty?”
“Not so much a conversation, as he still hasn’t answered me.”, Leo added, “And I learned it in highschool. We were able to take it as an extra subject, so I did for two years.”
Finn cleared his throat. He sounded a bit raspy, “Surprise?”
“Since when?”, Logan asked.
“I wanted payback. You speak French so often and I never understand, so I thought I could have that too, in a way.” The other two started smiling. Finn bumped Leo’s shoulder lightly, “Never expected this one to be so damn smart. There are things you don’t know though, right?”, he turned to Leo, “Because me and Logan went to college and somehow you still outshine us. How dare you.”
Leo snickered, which turned into the same bright laugh from before, only they didn’t try to cover it up this time. In between breaths, they asked Finn, “You leaned German so you could have a language we don’t understand? Why didn’t you just learn French so you do understand us?”
Finn felt a bit stupid. But it was fine. He had his loves. His cheeks slowly turning pink he turned to them and held them tight, face pressed to Leo’s chest. “Next time.”, he mumbled, but they all knew that wouldn’t happen, because although Finn would never say it out loud, he loved both of their French, and he wasn’t really annoyed he couldn’t understand. He kind of like it.

ok now i'm picturing leo as someone who's like very good at languages bc german is fucking hard and i have no idea how someone can learn it in 2 years
so picture leo speaking spanish and randomly saying "los amo mucho" and "son lo mejor que me pasó" to their boys. and like it's kinda similar to french so imagine logan kinda understanding and trying to guess what they're saying
bonus points if one day leo decides to annoy them and starts speaking languages they don't know. like they go from german to spanish to italian or smt
i got too invested in this
okay, so I think Leo's not fluent in german but I agree they are one talented bean! imagine:
Leo: son lo mejor que me pasó 😌
Finn: Peeeeaanuuuuuut ☹
Logan: They said we're the best thing to ever happen to them
Finn: Peeeeaanuuuuuut 🥺
