5x01 - Glee and The Missing Part 2


Lenox Health Centre – East Village – Friday afternoon

"Here drink this"

Puck handed Quinn a plastic cup of bitter coffee and took the seat next to her. They were sat outside Rachel's and Finn's hospital room while the doctor checked over Finn and Rachel for the second time in the last hour. Mercedes was pacing the ground in front of them and Santana, along with Tina was in the far corner talking to Finn and Rachel's relatives – updating them about everything that had happened in the last few hours.

The group had been at the hospital for four hours and in those four hours nothing had changed. Once the police had realised the children had been taken every police man and woman available was out looking for them and their picture had been on most news channels pleading with people for information, as well as an amber alert. Finn and Rachel had also yet to wake up. The doctors had explained to the worried friends that it was in fact monoxide poisoning and that once it was out of their system Finn and Rachel should wake up.

"Is it terrible that I don't want Finn and Rachel to wake up until we have their children back? I can't even imagine how they would feel if…" Quinn trailed off unable to finish her thought. Puck wrapped his arm around Quinn as she wiped away the few tears that were still filling her eyes. Quinn and Puck had left NJ in Lima with Puck's mother because they knew the hospital was no place for him but at that moment all Quinn wanted was to hold her own child close.

Santana walked back over to the couple and took a seat next to Quinn.

"I think that's everyone" Santana stated as she put her phone back in her bag "Carole and Burt are on a cruise but Kurt is going to get a hold of them and Marley, Will and Shelby are all on their way here. Tina said she would handle everything else" Santana looked over at Tina who was talking on one phone while typing something on another "She's Wonder Woman"

Quinn just nodded in reply to Santana as she couldn't find any words. She took another sip of the bitter coffee then looked over at Mercedes who was still pacing in front of them.

"Mercedes sit down, you're giving me a headache"

Mercedes begrudgingly took the last seat next to Santana and the four friends waited in silence for a few minutes, they didn't have any words that would make sense of what had happened to their friends so they stayed silent. Eventually the doctor came out of Finn and Rachel's room, the four of them jumped up and turned to the Doctor.

"How are they?" Santana demanded before the young doctor could even shut the door.

"We have them both on IV's and the toxins are leaving their body" The doctor explained to the worried friends. Tears came to Quinn's eyes again and Puck wrapped his arm around her.

"When are they going to wake up?" Puck asked.

"That's really up to them, but they will wake up. I expect them to make a full recover. They were very lucky that your friend" The doctor waved over to Tina in the corner who was still talking on the phone "found them when she did otherwise they might not have been as lucky but I don't see any cause for concern that they will be any lasting damage"

"Tina definitely deserves a raise" Mercedes mused with a forced smile "Can we see them?"

"Of course" The doctor pointed over to the door then moved over to the Nurse's station as the friends walked into the room. Quinn took a seat in-between Rachel's and Finn's bed and looked over there sleeping forms.

The couple were on single hospital beds, both with matching IV's in their arms. They were both in hospital gowns with the white sheets pulled up to their chests.

"They look so pale" Quinn noted quietly. Puck stood behind her and put his hand on her shoulder, Quinn leaned into his touch.

"They almost look like they are sleeping" Mercedes added. She dragged her chair over to the middle and sat down next to Quinn. Santana moved over to the window and leaned against it. They remained silent again as they watched over their friends all lost in their own thoughts.

Eventually the silence was interrupted by Tina walking into the room with Detective Rogers behind her. Santana jumped up from the window ledge and marched over to them.

"Have you heard anything?" Santana demanded. Rogers looked away almost afraid to meet Santana's glare. Santana was almost close to demanding another detective, one who didn't seem so much a bubbling idiot.

"I'm afraid not" Rogers answered. Santana shook her head in disbelief then pointed her finger accusingly at the middle aged man.

"Then why the hell are you in here giving us nothing instead of out there" Santana waved her hand to the door "looking for my niece and nephews"

"We have every available officer out there with their pictures and we already have people looking for Jimmy and Lydia as well. We are talking to their friends and families, we will know something soon. I promise" Rogers explained, he cast a look over at Finn and Rachel then went back to Santana who was still glaring at him.

"I promise we are doing everything we can to get the children back"

"Then go out there and do it" Santana turned away from the detective and went back to the window. Rogers nodded in goodbye then left the room. Tina walked further into the room and looked over to Mercedes who looked to be the only one willing to listen.

"I'm going to go back to the office and make sure everything is running over there. I've already spoken to the school about Finn and they are going to cover all his classes. Then I'll go to the house and pick them up some things for when they wake up" Tina listed off as Mercedes nodded "Do you guys need anything bringing, some clothes, something to eat?"

"We will be fine Tina thank you" Mercedes gave the assistant a gentle smile. Mercedes watched Tina closely, she could tell the assistant was hiding her own worry and sadness in her work. While the others didn't spend any real time with Tina they knew Rachel and Finn saw her as practically family.

Tina nodded in return then left the room. The four of them went back to watching over their friends.

Old Apartment – Brooklyn – Friday Evening

"Have you seen the news Jimmy? We are all over it. Did you really think they wouldn't figure out it was you after you've been trying to contact Rachel with those stupid letters" Lydia ranted as she paced the small living room, the news was blaring out once again asking for any information on the kidnapping of the three scared children in the corner of the room.

Rose was sat in the corner of the room with Mason in her lap and Henry next to her. Rose had her arms around both of her brothers and she would scream and shout anytime Jimmy or Lydia came near them. Worried that the neighbours would hear the noise and report it, they stayed away from them.

"We just need to get out of town that's all. The police are looking in New York we just need to leave" Jimmy reasoned. He ran his hands through his hair roughly as he tried to think about what to do next. "I'll go out and get us some money and a car and then we can leave"

"Are you stupid Jimmy? You can't go out there. They probably have your mug shot everywhere" Lydia exclaimed rolling her eyes at her EX.

"Then what are we going to do?" Jimmy asked exasperated.

"Jimmy if we give them back now, it probably won't be that bad. Rachel and Finn are good people they will understand that you just wanted to see them" Lydia tried to reason. Jimmy gave Lydia a shocked look.

"They are our children –"

"No they're not!"

Lydia and Jimmy stared at each other. Jimmy gave Lydia the same evil look he gave whenever he was angry at her when they were together. She just hoped that he wouldn't hit her in front of the children, they had already been through enough. She knew she had to act fast to make it better.

"All I meant is that they are not yet. We can't raise them like this" Lydia waved around the small apartment "We need to leave. I'll go and get everything we need. I'll be able to hide better, I'll go to my parents. They will help us" Lydia explained. She didn't feel right about leaving Jimmy with the three young children but she knew it was the best plan they had.

"That's a good idea" Jimmy agreed. Lydia let out a small sigh of relief that Jimmy's anger had quickly passed.

Mason then started crying, the adults looked over at Rose who was cuddling her brother and rocking him back and forth like she had seen her mother and father do so many times.

"Before you leave shut that baby up, I'm going to a smoke in the other room" Jimmy walked into the bedroom and slammed the door behind him.

Lydia picked up the bottle that Jimmy had actually thought to take and walked over to the three children.

"Leave us alone!" Rose cried as she continued to rock her brother. Henry was next to her crouched in a ball crying for his mom and dad.

"Give this to him, he will stop crying. Have you seen your mommy do it before?" Lydia explained gently as she cautiously handed the young girl the bottle. Rose nodded and took the bottle, she began feeding Mason who immediately stopped crying. Lydia watched as Rose feed one brother and tried to stop the other from crying. Lydia knew better than to help, these children knew who their parents were and it wasn't her or Jimmy.

"I want to go home Rosie" Henry cried to his sister. He moved closer to Rose when he saw Lydia watching them.

"We will soon Henry. Mommy and Daddy are going to find us and then we can watch any film we want and I bet daddy will let us have as many cookies as we want and stay up later than even my bedtime" Rose spoke so bravely, it almost brought a tear to Lydia's eyes.

"You promise" Henry whispered still unsure by his sisters soothing words.

"I promise"

Lydia rose quickly and grabbed her bag and jacket. She walked back over to the children and kneeled down next to them.

"I promise I'm going to get you out of this. Just stay here and be quiet until I get back" Lydia whispered to Rose. She moved Mason so he was more comfortable in Rose's arms and was surprised when Rose let her. She hoped that meant Rose trusted her enough to listen to her until she got back. Jimmy came back into the room, he ignored the children and fell onto the couch watching the telly.

"I'll be back soon" Lydia said as she looked over at the children one last time then began to leave.

"Okay, bring me back some smokes"

Lenox Health Centre – East Village – Friday Evening

Mercedes was pacing the hallway outside of Rachel and Finn's hospital, she couldn't stand looking at her friend's pale faces for a second longer so she decided to call Sam instead.

"No don't come now, we're all just waiting around for them to wake up or to hear something from the detectives. Just finish the shoot first and get back when you can" Mercedes told Sam for a second time.

Sam was on a shoot for a new Burberry campaign and as soon as Mercedes had rung him to tell him what had happened he had wanted to cancel the shoot and be with them all at the hospital, but Mercedes knew how important it was to get the shoot finished. She wanted Sam by her side but she knew his career was important.

"Mercedes it doesn't feel right I should be there" Sam argued.

"Sam, finish the shoot then come home. Your agent will kill you if you cancel and we both know how important it was for you to get this campaign" Mercedes replied.

"It's not as important as you" Sam affirmed. Even though he couldn't see Mercedes smiled slightly despite the sad circumstances.

"I know and I'm telling you to stay, really just get here once everything is done"

"I'll be there as soon as I can, I love you"

"I love you too" Mercedes finished the call just as Santana came out of the hospital room. Mercedes took a seat next to her.

"That Sam" Santana asked as she lazily picked off some lint from her jeans.

"Yeah he was just checking in, have you called Brittany is she on her way" Mercedes wondered

"if she wanted to be here she would be" Santana shrugged distracted. Mercedes wasn't sure what to say to that so she just took Santana's hand in hers instead.

Puck slowly paced the room as he watched his two best friends. It had been an hour since Rogers had given them an update and neither Finn nor Rachel had made any kind of movement or sign that they were about to wake up. The girls had decided they had enough of watching their friends and had left the room to find something to eat.

Puck stopped pacing and walked over to Finn's bed.

"I know you probably can't hear me but for my own very selfish reasons I need you to wake up now" Puck stated only half joking "You're the leader Finn. You hold us all together in a way I, or anyone else, just can't. We're falling apart right now Finn. We need you"

"I know it will be terrible if you wake up just to learn what's happened to your children. I know in some way you're actually better how you are. But you are the strongest person I know. And I know that you will be able to, somehow make this better. Your optimism has always annoyed the crap out of me" Puck laughed bitterly "But I could really use some of it right now"

Puck fell into the chair next to Finn's bed. He knew that Finn and Rachel would wake up eventually but he knew he wouldn't rest until they did. Finn and Rachel had already been through so much because of Lydia and Jimmy and he refused to let it happen again, even if it meant he had to knock down every door in New York to find his friends children.

Puck was pulled from his thoughts when he felt the bed next to him shift. Puck jumped up and looked down at his friend whose fingers had begun twitching.

"Finn!"

Puck pushed the Nurses button and he watched Finn's eyes slowly open. Puck let out a sigh of relief as Finn eyes open fully and he looked around the room confused. Puck handed Finn a cup of water and Finn drank it all in one go before looking back at his friend.

Finn noticed Puck staring at him with sadness and worry "Puck what the hell is going on?"

Santana glared at the vending machine as it once again took her money but didn't give her the Reese's pieces she wanted. Unable to keep her frustration inside her any longer Santana began to kick the machine. Santana could hear the nurse yell at her to stop but she ignored her and continued to kick the machine because she was unable to kick, punch or scream at Lydia and Jimmy.

Eventually she felt two arms wrap around her and pull her away from the machine and down the hall. Mercedes let go of her once she stopped throwing her legs out in frustration.

"Feel better?" Quinn mused giving Santana a pointed look.

"I feel so helpless. We should be out there helping the police look for them but instead we are just sitting around here" Santana ranted. She fell on to one of the plastic chairs and ran her hands through her hair. Mercedes and Quinn each took a seat next to her.

"You heard what the police said. We would just be in the way. We need to be here for when Finn and Rachel wake up, they are going to need us" Quinn reasoned, she took Santana's hand in her own and squeezed it.

"I know logically that that's true but I just really wish there was something we could do to help" Santana said, she put her head on Mercedes shoulder, Mercedes leaned across and took Quinn's other hand. They were drawing strength and comfort from one another.

"Rachel would know what to do" Mercedes said sadly.

"Actually Rachel would freak out and Finn would know what to do. Then Rachel would call Tina to help her" Santana argued with a small laugh.

"That's a lot more accurate" Mercedes mused.

"The police are going to find them right. I mean Mason is just a baby, he'll need to be with his parents. They are probably so scared and frightened –"Quinn began to sob. Santana and Mercedes wrapped their arms around her as they two began to cry at the thought of their niece and nephews. The woman eventually stopped crying but continued to hold on to each other. After a few minutes of silence the girls looked up when they saw Puck run over to them.

"Finn's awake!"

The girls jumped up and followed Puck back into Finn's room. They ran inside to see Finn was being held down by the doctor that had been checking him over.

"Idiot Rogers told Finn about the kids and he's demanding to leave" Puck explained as he glared at the Detective in the corner of the room. Santana moved over to the bed and pulled the doctor away.

"Finn calm down, you are no use to anyone like this" Santana reasoned. Finn moved off the bed and picked up his shoes from the chair next to his bed.

"Do not tell me to calm down after I've just woken up from being poisoned by Jimmy so that he could kidnap my children" Finn coughed, he was still weak and fell back on to the bed as he began to lose his balance.

"Finn every cop is out there looking for them. They have the news stations running Jimmy's picture around the clock. They are going to find your children Finn, but you have to focus on getting better for when they come back" Puck reasoned. Finn looked over at Rachel's still form and slowly nodded his head. The doctor walked back over to him and began to check Finn over. Puck moved over to Finn's side just in case his friend tried to leave again.

Once the doctor had checked Finn over and declared that Finn was healthy as could be for the time being, he left the room and Finn looked over at the Detective who was still stood in the corner of the room.

"Tell me everything you know" Finn demanded the detective. The others gave Rogers a pointed look to speak quickly. Rogers quickly explained to the worried father everything he knew which was no different to what Puck had already explained to Finn. Finn glared at the detective when he couldn't provide him with any real information about where his children were. Once Rogers had finished Finn told him to leave the room and not come back until he knew something real, Rogers knew better than to argue and quickly left the room.

Finn slowly got up from his own bed and took the seat next to Rachel's bed. He took her hand in his own. He closed his eyes as the tears came. None of the others moved, they were stunned to silence as they watched their friend breakdown. Finn clutched his wife's hand in desperation. Puck eventually took the seat next to his friend and wrapped his arm around him. Puck pulled him close as Finn continued to cry.

Old Apartment – Brooklyn – Friday Evening

Rose looked around the small room, Jimmy had gone to the bedroom again to smoke and had told her not to bother him, not that Rose wanted to speak to him anyway. Rose remembered Jimmy and Lydia has her old mom and dad. The people she had lived with before going to Finn and Rachel. Rose hated it then and she hated being back with them.

"Why are we here Rosie" Henry whispered, he had been afraid to talk any louder in case Jimmy heard them. Rose put Mason down on the floor next to them, then moved closer to Henry.

"Those people used to be our mommy and daddy"

"They did" Henry asked alarmed. He hated the thought that anyone but Rachel and Finn could be their mom and dad.

"Yeah and they want us back" Rose looked earnestly at her brother "But mommy and daddy won't let happen Henry. We are going to leave soon"

"Is Masy okay?" Henry looked down at his brother who was rolling over on to his stomach then rolling back onto his back. Rose and Henry both smiled at their brother, Rose tickled Mason's belly to amuse both him and Henry.

"He's okay, we all are Henry" Rose promised, she reached over and hugged Henry when she noticed he had started crying.

"I want to go home Rosie, I want mommy and daddy" Henry cried. Rose wrapped her arms around him tightly like she had seen her mom and dad do every time either her or her brothers was upset.

Rose was still holding her brother when Lydia came back and Jimmy walked back into the living room. Lydia put down a bag of shopping on the table then looked nervously over at Jimmy then back at children.

"Did you get everything we need" Jimmy asked. He took a beer out of the fridge, unscrewed the top and took a drink.

"I did, there is a car waiting downstairs for us" Lydia answered shortly. She looked over at the children then at the front door. Jimmy finished off his beer then clapped his hands.

"Right then let's get out of her – "

"Wait!" Lydia exclaimed "I need to change the baby and get them out of the pyjamas. They are going to stick out otherwise"

Jimmy let out a frustrated sigh "Fine but be quick"

Lydia nodded then walked over to the three children. She picked up Mason and Rose and Henry both jumped up quickly to protect their brother.

"Just come with me" Lydia whispered. She took Henry's hand, who took Rose's hand and they followed Lydia into the bedroom. Lydia closed the door behind them then put Mason down on the bed. She took out her phone then sent a text.

"Okay go into the corner" Lydia rushed out, Rose grabbed her brothers hand and moved quickly into the corner.

Suddenly a door was kicked open and Rose jumped in surprise, she hugged Henry closer as Mason began to cry. Lydia took Mason in to her arms and tried to settle him as she heard the police enter the flat.

"Jimmy Rowlands you are under arrest for the kidnapping of Rose, Henry and Mason Hudson you don't have to …"

"WHAT GOING ON, LYDIA WHAT DID YOU DO. GET OFF ME. YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS LYDIA"

Jimmy's shouts downed down as he was forced out of the apartment to a waiting police car. Lydia continued to cradle Mason as a Police Officer Martin walked through into the bedroom.

"He has been taken away, thank you for what you did Miss, you'll have to come down to the station with me to answer a few more questions" Reynolds explained. When Lydia had left to get some money she had actually gone to the police station and told them where they could find Jimmy. A decision she didn't regret even if she did get in trouble with the police. Rose, Henry and Mason belonged with Finn and Rachel, Lydia knew that even if Jimmy didn't.

"What about them?" Lydia asked looking back at Rose and Henry who were still cuddled together in the corner.

"I'm going to take them to the hospital" Martin replied kindly. She took Mason out of Lydia's arms and Lydia was surprised when she started to well up.

"Can I just have one minute" Lydia asked as she wiped away the tears that were threatening to fall.

Martin nodded her head "Be quick, we need to get them to the hospital"

Lydia knelt down next to Rose and Henry who were watching her closely while still keeping an eye on their brother who was still in the Officers arms.

"This lady is going to take you to your mommy and daddy. You can trust her" Lydia stated looking over at Martin briefly "I'm so sorry this happened" Lydia lightly stroked Rose's then Henry's faces "Goodbye"

Lydia quickly left the room and followed the other Police Officers out of the apartment.

Officer Martin leaned down to face Rose "You guys ready to go home?"

Lenox Health Centre – East Village – Friday Night

An hour after waking up Finn was still sat next to Rachel's bed, he changed back into his own clothes and managed to drink some more water but he not moved from their hospital room. Everyone else was scattered around the room but Finn paid them no mind as held on tightly to his wife's hand.

He was about to let go and have some more water when he felt Rachel's hand twitch. He jumped up from his seat just as Rachel's eyes opened. She started coughing as looked panicked around the room.

"Finn!"

"Oh baby thank god" Finn gasped as he hugged Rachel tightly. Puck ran out of the room to get the doctor while Santana, Mercedes and Quinn all hugged each in relief that their friend had woken up.

"Finn what is going on?" Rachel wondered once he pulled away from her. Finn looked over at the girls and for a second wondered if he should tell Rachel what was going on but once he saw her face he knew he couldn't lie to her. As quickly as he could Finn explained what had happened with Rose, Henry and Mason and in the same way he had Rachel immediately tried to get out of her bed.

"OH god, where are they, WHERE ARE MY BABIES" Rachel demanded as Finn held her back and tried to move her back on to the bed.

"We are going to get them back I promise; they will come home to us" Finn promised as he sat down next to Rachel on the bed as Santana passed her some water.

"Here Rachel drink this"

Rachel took the water and carefully as she could with shaking hands she took a sip of the water. Finn wrapped his arm around her and held her close.

"Is this my fault because I replied to Jimmy's stupid letter" Rachel cried as she cradled the water in her hand and put her head on Finn's shoulder.

"Of course not Rachel, Jimmy is a bad person he was always going to do something like this. There was nothing you could have done to stop it. And I promise you when we find him I will personally make sure he spends the next fifty years of his life in prison" Santana proclaimed just as the doctor came into the room with Puck. He quickly checked Rachel over then just as he was checking her heart rate, Detective Rogers walked into the room.

"Mr and Mrs Hudson we have your children" He stated. Rachel pushed away the doctor and looked over at the Detective.

"Oh thank god!" Rachel cried.

"Two police officers are bringing them here now" The Detective explained. He told the room about Lydia had done to make sure the children were safe and how they now had Jimmy in custody.

"I can't believe Lydia did that for us" Finn said. Rachel nodded in agreement as she wiped her tears away. She allowed the doctor to continue to check her over as the detective continued.

"She was scared of Jimmy but she knew the only way to protect them was to stay close to him"

"Will she faces any charges?" Mercedes asked.

"We still have a few questions for her but really that depends on what you want to happen Mr and Mrs Hudson" The detective said looking over at Finn and Rachel. They shared a look before turning back to the Detective.

"I want to see my children first" Rachel stated. She didn't want to think about anything until she saw for herself that her children were self and well, she would worry about Lydia later.

"Of course"

The detective left the room and one the doctor had checked Rachel over and declared she was well, he left as well. Rachel changed back into her clothes as they all waited silently for the children to arrive. Ten minutes later Rose was running through the hospital room door while a police officer carried Henry and Mason.

"MOMMY!" Rose shouted as she ran into Rachel's arm. Rachel picked her up and squeezed her close while Finn took hold of Henry and Mason and did the same.

"Oh sweetie" Rachel cried happily, she looked over at her sons to check them as well "Are you okay, are you all okay"

"It wasn't a nice place daddy" Henry stated sadly. Finn wrapped them all in a group hug as the others watched on happily. Quinn wiped her tears away as Puck held her close while Finn and Rachel continued to hug their children closely, not daring to let go for even a second.

"Everything is going to be okay now; I promise"

"Physically your children are all fine. Emotionally they might be a little fragile for a while but that is to be expected" The doctor explained to Rachel and Finn. Everyone else had left the room while the doctor checked over the children, who had all managed to fall asleep on the hospital bed.

"Can we take them home now" Rachel asked as she gently stroked Rose's hair from where she sat the foot of the bed.

"Once I get the blood work back for yourself and Mr Hudson you will all be free to leave" The doctor answered as he scribbled down something on the hospital chart.

"Thank you doctor"

The doctor put away the file and left the family alone.

"They are going to be okay right?" Rachel asked not looking away from her children. They were all still in their pyjamas from the day before but they were not covered in dirt. Rose also had a cut on her arm and Rachel was too heartbroken to ask how she had got it, she also didn't want to push Rose and Henry to talk about what had happened.

"They might spend a few nights in our bed but we will help them, we will get through this Rachel just like we always do" Finn answered. Rachel nodded slowly but Finn could tell she wasn't 100% convinced.

"Did you talk to the police about Lydia?"

"I did" Finn replied "I told them we didn't want to press any charges against her. She wanted to come and thank us but I told them it would be best if she stayed away"

"Agreed I never want to see Jimmy or Lydia's faces again" Rachel stated. Rachel had been thankful for Lydia for what she had done but that didn't mean she would ever be able to see that's woman's face without wanting to slap her.

"Well if Santana has anything to say about it, you never will see Jimmy" Finn agreed. He walked over to Rachel and wrapped his arms around her from behind. Rachel leaned into him as she continued to watch their children.

"Thank god"

"Hey guys, what did the doctor say?" Quinn asked as she walked into the private hospital room once she saw the doctor leave. Santana and Mercedes were ringing around making sure everyone knew that Rachel, Finn and the children were now okay but Quinn and Puck had to leave as they had to get back to NJ.

"We're all fine, well physically at least" Rachel answered not taking her eyes off her children who were all still sleeping, squashed together on the hospital bed.

"That's good at least" Quinn reasoned looking over at Finn at the other bed "I hate to leave right now but we have to get back for NJ"

"Of course, thank you for dropping everything to come here" Rachel stated finally looking up at her friend. Rachel and Finn both walked over to Quinn and hugged her. She squeezed them back just as tightly.

"Of course, I love you Rachel… you too Finn" Quinn beamed. She pulled away from the couple who remained close to each other and their children.

Finn smirked gently at Quinn "Love you too"

Santana's Apartment – Upper East Side – Friday Night

"Hey, you're finally home, how is everyone" Brittany asked as Santana walked into their bedroom, where Brittany was already in bed.

"They are finally home and safe" Santana answered as she began to get undressed. The whole day and been emotionally draining on all of them and all Santana wanted was to crawl into bed.

"That's good" Brittany sighed in relief as she got out of bed and put her arms around Santana "I feel like I haven't seen you in days"

"You could have come to the hospital" Santana stated, she pulled away from her wife and continued to get undressed. Santana had had an intense two days and she couldn't deal with Brittany complaining.

"I figured if you wanted me there you would have told me"

"You know Puck was there" Santana stated "Not because Quinn asked him to because Finn is his friend just like he's yours. You should just make that decision for yourself Brittany, instead of blaming me every time you think you're not involved"

Brittany startled at Santana, not expecting her to snap at her after two days of not seeing each other.

"I don't want to fight; it's been a long day" Santana waved off not looking at Brittany "I'm just going to shower then go to bed"

Santana walked into their bathroom and closed the door behind her, Brittany knew better than to follow her.

Finn and Rachel's House – West Village – Friday Night

Once Finn had double checked that all the locks on the doors and windows around the house, he switched off the lights downstairs and made his way to his bedroom where Rachel and his children were hopefully sleeping. The had been home an hour and thankfully because of the exhausting day they had Rose, Henry and Mason all managed to fall asleep without too much fuss.

Finn walked into the bedroom to see all three of his children still sleeping on his bed while his wife was sat on the ottoman watching them. Finn could see that she was crying and he quickly wrapped his arms around her from behind.

"Rachel?"

"How could we let this happen" Rachel cried, she pressed herself into Finn and he held her tightly while looking over at their children. He didn't have an answer but he knew one thing he wasn't going to let this break them. They would get through this, all together.

Finn rocked Rachel gently as she continued to cry "Shush it's going to be okay, I promise"
