Let $f$ and $g$ be weight $k$ holomorphic cusp forms and let $S_f(n)$ and $S_g(n)$ denote the sums of their first $n$ Fourier coefficients. Hafner and Ivic [HI], building on Chandrasekharan and Narasimhan [CN], proved asymptotics for $sum_{n leq X} lvert S_f(n) rvert^2$ and proved that the Classical Conjecture, that $S_f(X) ll X^{frac{k-1}{2} + frac{1}{4} + epsilon}$, holds on average over long intervals. In this paper, we introduce and obtain meromorphic continuations for the Dirichlet series $D(s, S_f times S_g) = sum S_f(n)overline{S_g(n)} n^{-(s+k-1)}$ and $D(s, S_f times overline{S_g}) = sum_n S_f(n)S_g(n) n^{-(s + k - 1)}$. Using these meromorphic continuations, we prove asymptotics for the smoothed second moment sums $sum S_f(n)overline{S_g(n)} e^{-n/X}$, proving a smoothed generalization of [HI]. We also attain asymptotics for analogous smoothed second moment sums of normalized Fourier coefficients, proving smoothed generalizations of what would be attainable from [CN]. Our methodology extends to a wide variety of weights and levels, and comparison with [CN] indicates very general cancellation between the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function $L(s, ftimes g)$ and shifted convolution sums of the coefficients of $f$ and $g$. In forthcoming works, the authors apply the results of this paper to prove the Classical Conjecture on $lvert S_f(n) rvert^2$ is true on short intervals, and to prove sign change results on ${S_f(n)}_{n in mathbb{N}}$.
