This just kind of came to me. I know I have another story going, but I just had to see if this went anywhere. Let me know what you think.
Chapter 1
June 12th, 2030
Briley Monteith was standing in the bathroom with her current boyfriend and best friend, Briar Salling. They had been friends since birth, but a couple for the last two years. They had both just had their eighteenth birthday and everything was perfect, until Briley started feeling sick.
Briley and Briar were like any other teenagers, except they were the children of Cory and Lea Monteith and Mark and Dianna Salling. They fell to the temptations like a lot of other teens their age did, and they were going to be paying for it for the rest of their lives now as they looked at the pregnancy test that read: PREGNANT.
Briar grabbed Briley before she could hit the floor in sobs. He held his girlfriend to his chest as tight as he could. He wished he could make it go away, but he couldn't help but be a little happy. He was going to be having a baby with the only girl he had ever loved or cared about. He ran his hands through her long brown hair that was just like her mother's. He softly said, "I want you to know I am not going anywhere. I am always going to be here for you and the baby. That is if you want to keep it. I'm not going to make you keep it or anything, but can you imagine how legit our baby would be? I mean look at us. We are a pair of good looking Glee kids."
Briley had to smile at his attempt to make her laugh. She looked at him with the same brown eyes that her father had. She said, "My parents are going to kill me."
Briar told her, "No. You are safe. Now, me on the other hand. I'm not so sure. Uncle Cory is going to murder me for doing this to you. You are his little girl. Yeah you have two little sisters and a brother, but you know you are the one he has the closest bond with. He is going to murder me. Our baby isn't going to have a dad because I am not going to make it."
Briley slapped him. "Don't say that! One thing: we are having a baby, I don't think we can call our parents aunts and uncles anymore. The poor baby will be so confused."
Briar kissed her head and said, "You are right, beautiful. I love you so much Eme."
"I love how you are the only person that ever calls me Eme. Everyone else just calls me Lee and it is so boring."
Briar laughed. "Of course I had to be different. I love you, Briley Emelia Dianna Monteith."
Briley smiled. "I love you, Briar Lee Alan Salling."
"How are we going to go about telling our parents?"
"I don't know."
"I just know we are going to do it together."
"Of course. This is definitely not something we are going to do on our own. I don't want to disappoint my dad. He is my best friend. What am I going to do, Bri?"
"You are going to tell him and let whatever happens happen from there. I just want you to know I am not going to let anything happen to you or peanut."
Briley instinctively put her hand on her stomach as if to protect her baby. Briar got down at a level with Briley's stomach and said, "Baby, daddy is going to love you. I hope you look just like your mommy. That would make daddy very happy."
Briley giggled and said, "You are so precious. I really don't know how we are going to do this. I am supposed to be on Broadway in a month! They are going to fire me. This is my first job that I have gotten that really means anything to me. I'm following in my mom's footsteps. I don't know how I managed to get a spot on the cast of Fiddler on The Roof. I am going to be the same role as my mom. They won't want someone who is pregnant. The character isn't pregnant. I'm not going to be able to hide it forever."
Briar took her hand and said, "We got this. I'll go to New York with you. I want to get married. You can do your Broadway thing and I'll be there to support you, as always. Then we'll come back for the Glee remake. Can you believe they are making a remake of Glee? How legit is it that we are part of it. They are changing it up this time some. Maybe I can be the kid that is like my dad's character and you could be like your mom's. then they put us together with our beautiful baby and it will all be perfect. You are a true Glee baby."
"You are too, mister. You were on the spinoff with us."
"But you were actually 'born' on Glee."
"Shut up. I am never going to live that down. My life has revolved around Glee. It is a tad bit ridiculous. I love it because I had the chance to spend a ton of time with mom and dad, but I will always be the Glee baby or the Finchel baby. I don't know how many people actually know my real name."
"I know your real name. that is all that matters, right?"
Briley got on her tiptoes and kissed Briar. Her height was one other thing she got from her mother, while everything else was from her dad.
The two of them heard the door open. They heard the voices of both of their families. They knew it was the time they weren't sure they were looking forward to.
Briar and Briley walked down the stairs holding hands. Mark, Dianna, Cory and Lea were all standing in the living room while the other children went running off in different directions. Briley's younger sister, Brenli, came over to them. She asked, "Lee are you feeling okay? You are looking a little sick."
Briley took her hand and dragged her off out of the way while Briar went in to talk to their parents. Brenli asked, "What is going on?"
Briley started crying as she said, "I'm pregnant." Brenli was fifteen. She didn't understand a lot of things, but she knew this was big. Briley never cried and if she was crying this was huge.
Brenli hugged her older sister and said, "It's going to be okay."
"I'm sorry I threw that at you. Bri and I are going to tell mom, dad, Mark and Dianna tonight. Do you think you could get Noella, Levi and Layken out of the room for us?"
"Of course. So, I'm going to be an aunt?"
"Yeah. I'm sorry. I just hope this doesn't ruin things for everyone. Bri and I are kind of happy about it."
"You are going to have a cute baby."
Briley laughed as she gave her little sister a hug. "Thanks, sis."
The two of them walked back in the living room. Brenli got the younger kids out of the room.
Mark looked from Briley to Briar and back. He asked, "Okay. What is the matter with the two of you? You are acting strange and it is really starting to bother me."
Briley took Briar's hand and held it so tightly she had white knuckles.
Briar said, "Briley and I… Well… We are…"
Cory laughed and said, "The two of you are dating. We have known that for a long time. Bri, that is old news." The adults started laughing.
Briley said, "Daddy, that isn't it. I'm p-p-pregnant."
Each of the adults were speechless. Briley stood as close to Briar as she could without having him literally hold her.
Cory finally said, "You are what? Not my baby girl. Briar, I am going to kick your butt! How could the two of you be so irresponsible. I thought we had all taught you better than that. We tried to anyway."
Briley burst into tears. She told him, "Daddy, don't yell at Bri! He loves me. He loves us. We are going to keep the baby. I just hope you will still love me." Briley ran upstairs to her room and slammed it behind her.
Mark looked at Briar and said, "You royally messed up this time, kid. Do you have any idea what you got yourself into?"
Dianna and Lea both had tears in their eyes at the loss of their children's childhood. Dianna said, "What were the two of you thinking?"
Lea said, "Briar, we know this wasn't just you. The two of you are both responsible for this. What are you going to do?"
Briar had tears form in his own eyes. He said, "Uncle Cory, please don't kill me. We never meant for this to happen. You know better than anyone else that Eme and I love each other. I am going to love this baby just as much. I'm scared. I don't want any of you to hate me, Eme or the baby because of this."
Cory walked over to him and said, "Bri, you are named after me. I could never hate you. I can't say that I'm not disappointed that this happened, but you and Briley are still our kids. You know that we will love the two of you no matter what. We are going to love the baby, too. What are the two of you going to do? How far is she?"
Briar took a deep breath. "She is still going to go to Broadway for as long as they will take her. Then we are going to come back here for the remake of Glee. I'm going to take care of the two of them the best that I can. While we are in New York I'm going to start working on a CD or something. Thankfully I got dad's legit guitar skills and mom's voice. I promise to take care of the two of them. I already love the baby."
Dianna said, "Honey, this is not going to be easy for the two of you."
"We know that. We have loved each other our whole lives. The four of you have been planning our wedding since we were born. We both know that. We just didn't do things in the order that most do. We want to get married before we go to New York."
Lea looked at Dianna and said, "It looks like we have a wedding to get planning." The two of them wrapped their arms around Briar to show their support.
Mark patted him on the back and said, "This is going to be the hardest, but most rewarding job you will ever have in your life. I know you are going to have good looking kids. My grandkids are going to be good looking that is for sure."
Cory wrapped his arms around Briar and pulled him to his chest. He said, "I'm sorry I reacted that way. When you have your baby you will understand what I am talking about. A father forms a relationship with their child in a way you never would think you would."
Briar looked up at him and said, "I look forward to figuring that out for myself."
"Good. I'm going to go talk to my baby girl. This is something I am going to have to get used to and I'm not sure I am ready for that."
Cory left everyone to go upstairs to talk to Briley and comfort his baby girl. He knew the coming months were going to be long and hard for everyone.
