AN: I only own Haley.
This is only a three shot so I hope you like it.
Rachel looked over the invitation in her hand and sighed placing it on her make-up table.
"What's eating you?"
Rachel looked up and looked at her co-star. Haley Pierce was her best friend in New York. Rachel was currently playing Elphaba and Haley is her Glinda.
Haley was tall, blonde and blue eyed. Slim form and a killer voice. (Think Taylor Swift.)
Rachel picked up the invitation and handed it to her friend.
"Your ten year reunion?" Haley asked as Rachel nodded. "So?"
"I'm not going." Rachel said as Haley raised an eyebrow.
"I thought you wanted to rub your success in their faces?" Haley asked. Rachel had told her everything about her time in high school and Haley told her about her life traveling from army base to army base with her overbearing dad.
"I did, but she might be there." Rachel said her voice lowering towards the end.
"So?" Haley asked. "Rach, this is your chance to show everyone there you were right and that you're living your dream, you haven't seen any of them since you graduated ten years ago." Haley said. "Besides, maybe you and Quinn can work things out." Haley shrugged as Rachel shook her head.
"I'm not going Hales, besides, we are finally getting our four month break from this show and I plan on spending it relaxing." Rachel said as Haley shrugged.
"Whatever Rach, but just remember what and if are simple words but put them together and you got something entirely different that haunts you forever." Haley said.
"You need to stop talking sense and tell me I'm right." Rachel said groaning.
"I'll go with you if it helps." Haley offered.
"That's very kind of you Haley but I wouldn't ask you to do that."
"You didn't, I offered, take it or leave it Rach." Haley said. "Besides, from what Brittany tells me you two were like an epic love story that should have its happy ending." Haley said as Rachel sighed.
"Why did you have to be the cousin of the one person who could make me feel better?" Rachel groaned as Haley smiled.
"Second cousin, but that doesn't matter, and because we're awesome like that." Haley grinned smugly. "Besides, she's taking that guy friend of hers and maybe she'll even get back with Santana, I liked her." Haley said.
"You only met her three times." Rachel pointed out matter of fact.
"So?" Haley huffed. "Come on, let's go pick Britt up and go home, we'll talk about this there." Haley said holding her hand out and Rachel took it allowing the taller blonde to help her up.
"Come on Q, we can go together." Santana said as Quinn huffed.
"No S, I don't wanna go, she might be there." Quinn frowned.
"Suck it up Q, B might be there but I still want to go and show those idiot losers that I made it and I am a very successful lawyer kicking ass." Santana beamed as Quinn shook her head.
Taking care of Beth became her priority after her fight with Rachel the night after graduation.
FLASH
"Why not?" The brunette diva cried.
"Because I have to take care of Beth and college is the last thing on my mind Rach, I can't raise her and go to school at the same time, you'll be a Julliard and I'll be doing whatever, so you go and when the time is right Beth and I will join you." Quinn said trying to keep the agitation from her voice.
"I want you both there, we promised we would be together when all our dreams came true!" Rachel cried as Quinn sighed.
"I know, but maybe we should just go our ways and when we get back to each other we'll have our dreams."
"Are you breaking up with me?" Rachel squeaked.
Quinn gasped wide-eyed. "No, Rach, I'm just saying you should go to Julliard, when things become less complicated Beth and I will join you, but right now maybe being apart will be good for us."
"You are breaking up with me!" Rachel yelled.
"Why are you making this hard?" Quinn asked her voice raising as well.
"Because you keep making it sound as if we're not gonna make it!" Rachel shouted.
"Maybe we won't!" Quinn shot back. "You know what! Maybe we should break up!" Quinn yelled as they stood there glaring at each other.
Rachel harrumphed and shrugged.
"Fine, if that's what you want we're through, goodbye Quinn." Rachel said walking out of the Fabray house.
END
"Q, you have to get over it, thinking it over makes it seem like it was a stupid fight." Santana said.
"Why did you and B break up?" Quinn asked.
"You know why." Santana grumbled.
FLASH
"B, please." Santana pleaded as Brittany shook her head.
"My family needs me S, I can't let them down, getting into Julliard was the best thing, I want them to be proud of me."
"B, just because I'm not going to a school in New York means we should break up." Santana said. Brittany shook her head.
"S, my family wants this for me, why don't you take the offer at Columbus?" Brittany asked as Santana sighed.
"Columbia B, and because I got a better offer at Harvard." Santana said as Brittany pouted.
"Fine you go be with your rich people and I'll be with people who get me." Brittany huffed pushing Santana out of the room and slamming the door in her face.
END
"Now who's seems stupid?" Quinn asked as Santana glared and they turned hearing the door open and slam shut.
"Sorry!" The big voice called out.
It amazed them how much Beth was like Rachel. Small girl, big voice.
"We've talked about slamming doors sweetie." Quinn said softly as the small blonde girl ran in and hugged her mother and aunt.
"I know, I'm sorry." The twelve year old blonde said as Quinn smiled.
"Its fine sweetie, give your Aunt Santana a hug." Quinn said as Beth bounced over and hugged Santana.
"Hey Princessa." Santana smiled as Beth beamed at her and ran to her room.
"Get your homework done!"
"Yes mom!"
Another slamming of a door.
"Sorry!"
Bother women just laughed.
"Why?"
"Brittany, I don't think I could handle it." Rachel sighed sipping the beer in her hand.
They were currently sitting in a VIP booth at a local club owned by none other than Mike Chang and his best friend Matt Rutherford.
"But Matt and Mike are going, why not us?" Brittany asked pouting and Haley chuckled from beside Rachel earning a swat to the shoulder by the small brunette.
"Do you think you can handle seeing Santana?" Rachel asked as Brittany frowned deeper.
"I don't think so, but you have to be brave and smile, you always tell me that." Brittany said as Haley covered her laugh by taking a sip of her beer.
"Hey ladies!"
They looked up to see Matt and Mike approaching them.
"Hey guys." Brittany shouted hugging them both.
"Are you going to the reunion?" Mike asked as Brittany frowned.
"What?" Matt asked.
"Rach doesn't want to go in fear that she might see Quinn and she's making Brittany afraid of seeing Santana." Haley explained as the guys glared at Rachel but also gave her sympathetic looks.
"It'll be fun, come on Rach, take Haley as your date." Mike said.
"Totally not my type no offense." Haley put in holding her hands up.
"Yeah, but you're Berry's type, Quinn will be so jealous when she sees you two together." Mike laughed.
"And what about that guy friend of yours B?" Matt asked as Brittany smiled.
"Brian? He said he'll go with me if we decide to go." Brittany said with her biggest smile. "What about you two?"
"We don't need dates, we'll show up like the studs we are and get all the girls we want." Matt beamed as Mike nodded and turned to Haley.
"You think maybe I'll get my chance?" Mike asked as Haley scoffed sipping her beer.
"Yeah right, you aren't my type either Chang so don't get your hopes up." Haley smirked as Mike frowned but then perked up.
"Fine, but come on Rachel, it'll be fun, you can rub it in Kurt's face when he sees the you now." Mike said. "You can prove everyone there you were right and followed your dream."
"I hear your mother is going to be in Lima at the time too." Haley said as Rachel snapped her head to her.
Rachel and Shelby have a strong relationship now. It grew and grew since they met before Regionals and once the competition was done Rachel and Shelby just fell into it. Like a routine. A comfortable and nice routine.
"You've been talking to my dads again haven't you?" Rachel asked as Haley smiled innocently but the look in her eye let them know her guilt.
"Rachel it won't be that bad, from what I've heard from Puck, Santana and Quinn might not even be going so you might not see them and you always said you wanted to introduce Haley to them all and besides you haven't been home since Thanksgiving last year." Matt said as Rachel sighed.
"Fine, we're going." Rachel said as Brittany jumped up squealing and clapping her hands in a London Tipton manner. She then flung herself at Rachel who was thrown off and if it wasn't for the couch she was sitting on she would have fallen over. Her beer was safe because Haley took it from her to keep it from spilling everywhere.
"Come on Q, Puck was talking to Mike and Matt the other day and he said Berry and B might not go so you probably won't even see her." Santana said as Quinn sighed.
"But what about Beth, who'll watch her?" Quinn asked as Santana sighed agitated.
"Your mother can watch her Q or even Berry's dads, they enjoy seeing her, Beth already calls them her grandpa and grandpop." Santana said knowing she got Quinn.
"Fine, we'll go." Quinn caved as Santana beamed triumphantly.
I smell a set up. =)
Review please.
