Finn went off to the and Rachel continued to be a Broadway Star. This led to Quinn Fabray, a close family friend, and Rachel's manager to be Alexis Rose's mom. Now at nine-years old, Alexis doesn't get along with Rachel and questions why she looks like the big Broadway Star.
Based on the movie, Beautiful.
Chapter 1:
"Is this what we want to do?" Twenty-six years old Finn Hudson looked over at his wife Rachel Berry Hudson. A beautiful baby girl was welcomed into the world seven hours ago. Rachel wiped her tears with her hands.
Rachel considered this a lot. Do they raise a child and still follow their dreams at the same time? Who would be there for their baby? What will happen to their future? She knows Alexis Rose means the world to them. She's so important but also her dreams is. She can't do both. She can't raise a mother and be a Broadway star at a young age. She can't raise Alexis alone after knowing her husband will be leaving for the army in two weeks.
"I love her." Rachel choked up. "I love her with all my heart. I love you. Why do we have to do this? Can't I be a mom and a star?" She leaned her head against Finn's shoulder.
"Rachel.." Finn kisses Rachel's cheek. "We are still her parents. You know that." He says rubbing her back. "And Quinn will always be here for us." Quinn Fabray has been Rachel's long time best friend ever since they were two. She's married to Noah Puckerman who is also going to the Army with Finn.
"I should get the award for the worse mother in the world. I'm going to be in her life, and she'll grow up thinking Quinn is her mom. That hurts so much, Finn." Rachel confesses. "What if you come back? What if you accidently tell her the secret we've been keeping? Or what if you never come back?" She hated thinking so much about the future and how they'll be separated.
"Ssh..." Finn cooed Rachel. "I love you. We're going to be okay."
"How can you say that?!" Rachel cried. "You don't know anything."
"Okay, okay..maybe you need to sit down. Let's get you to relax." Finn says. Rachel shook her head. "No. I want to spend time with my sweet little daughter." Finn nods. He gives Rachel space. It's what she needed the most.
Quinn and Puck arrived hugging the Hudson's who were going through a rough time, making a tough decision in their life. "Please take care of Rachel and Alexis for me." Finn tells Quinn. She nods and gives Finn a big hug.
"Please take care of Puck for me." Quinn says. Finn nods as well. He and Puck hug it out. The three of them look at Rachel who was hurting so much inside.
They thought a child brings happiness to the world.
But all it became were worries.
Nine years later Rachel has played the lead roles of The West Side Story and Les Misérables . She's certainly won five Tony awards. Broadway life is crazy busy but she's enjoying everything. She loves giving autographs to her fans, getting on stage everyday and night, and wearing a green mask.
As of now, she's Elphaba. She's made it to where she wants to be. On the third week of her show, Wicked she decided to celebrate the night with Quinn and week fans would show up at the audience. Every week they would cry, give up a standing ovation, and young girls would say how much she inspires them. "I never want to stop. Thank you for helping me." Rachel smiles at Quinn who got off the phone. "You're welcome. I'm here for you, always. You're the greatest star." Quinn says.
The two woman were interrupted by Alexis pulling Quinn's shirt. "Mom! There are cameras everywhere outside. And everyone inside is staring!" She warned them. "I told you, you should of taking that green mask off!" She glared at Rachel.
Over the years, Alexis grew up to look more like Rachel, and grew a special bond with Quinn. She never gets along well with Rachel. She always makes smart remarks about her. "It's because I'm famous." Rachel responds back. "They're here to see me."
"Why would anyone want to see a lady wearing green all the time? I think it's ugly on you." Alexis says crossing her arms.
"Quinn!" Rachel tries not to roll her eyes on Alexis. "She's being very rude."
Quinn pats Alexis on her back. "Alexis, sweetheart? That's enough please." She says kissing her forehead. "Finish up your chicken."
"I don't want it. I'm going to get fat like Rachel." The little girl says. Rachel glares, hoping the three of them aren't making a scene. "Honey! That isn't nice." Quinn says. "Can you apologize?"
"No!" Alexis says. "I'm telling the truth. She is fat and ugly." She stuck her tongue at Rachel. "You're pretty mommy." Quinn caught Rachel looking down. She could tell she started to feel upset. "Thank you baby." Quinn says. "Please be nice."
No one said anything. Alexis shrugged her shoulders and played with the rest of her chicken nuggets. "Excuse me. I have a phone call." Rachel excuses herself. Quinn understood. She only excused herself if it was an emergency or if it was from Finn. The last time Rachel saw Finn was last Easter. Every chance he got, he always asked how she's doing, and how Alexis is. Rachel never had anything nice to say with her relationship she shared. "Finn?" She asked trying not to cry.
Finn who was overseas with Puck smiled as he heard the sound of her voice. "Rachel! I'm so happy to hear from you." He says. "I'm sorry I couldn't come home this week for the Holidays." He apologized. "How is everything?"
"Good. Good." Rachel says. "I miss you."
"I miss you more than anything. And our girl." Finn says. "How is she?" Finn became an Uncle, not the father. That's what Alexis grew up knowing.
"She hates me as usual. She can't stand me. She just called me fat and ugly before speaking to you. We don't have the best relationship. I wish we did." She held her tears. She didn't want to start crying.
Finn sighed. He wished for the best between his two favorite girls. He wasn't fond about what he was hearing. "Babe? You're beautiful. You're not ugly or fat." He convinces her. "Do you need me to have a talk with her?" He asked calmly.
"There's no use. Nothing is ever going to work." Rachel says. "I want to see you, Finn."
Finn clears his throat. "I want to see you so much. Hopefully, I'm on a leave soon."
"I hope so too. You've missed so many of my shows. Sometimes I stay strong, only for you."
"I know. I'm sorry. I really wish I can be there. I love you so much."
"I love you." Rachel closed her eyes. She opens them wide after hearing someone coming in. "I got to go babe. Times up. I love you. Bye." Finn hangs up the phone. Rachel says I love you again and bye. She hangs up the phone as well. She jumped when Alexis came into t he bathroom by herself. "Where's Quinn?" Rachel asked concerned. She gave eye contact when she didn't get a response. "Honey-"
She stared at Alexis washing her hands. "Sweetheart-"
"Stop calling me names! I'm not your honey or sweetheart! I can be on my own. I'm old enough, you know!" Alexis shouted. Luckily, it was only them two in the room.
"Alexis..you have no right to talk to me like that."
"Well you have no right to treat me like a baby. You're not my mom." Alexis says. She walks into a stall and slams the door shut in Rachel's face.
Those four words has put a big whole in Rachel's heart. Those words she wished she never heard coming from her daughter's mouth.
