Chapter 1

General's POV

Rachel Barbara Berry 25 years old, seven years ago she graduated from McKinley high school with a GPA of a 4.2. She was the true heir of the football team, and also the badass every girl wanted to be with, but she chose one girl. Santana Lopez. Santana was the Brainiac in high school, she stayed in the books, and she loved to sing. Rachel found interest in Santana when they were in their sophomore year. Rachel always had a crush on Santana, but she let the popularity get the best of her in high school. If it wasn't for Santana being the best girlfriend ever, Rachel would've failed high school. Santana helped her out a lot back then, they dated until Rachel got a call by her dads saying they enlisted her into the NAVY. Rachel was fucking pissed, she and Santana got into a lot of arguments over whether Rachel should go or not. Rachel basically had no choice or she was going to jail. The hell that was going to happen so Rachel went. Santana and Rachel got pulled away because Rachel was on missions and she couldn't talk to Santana like she wanted too. Rachel knew she and Santana were over. Now, Rachel is over Kurt's house helping him decide on what to throw Blaine for his 26th birthday party.

"So, what do you think?" Kurt asked his best friend.

"Kurt, it's hard to think about this, Blaine is not 15 anymore." Rachel throws a paperball into the trashcan.

"I know, but this is my husband Rachel." Kurt whines balling up another piece of paper.

"Can you call Beyoncé?" Kurt asked.

"You need to call Mercedes for that, or Brittany." Rachel said drinking her water.

"Good point." Kurt nods taking his cellphone out of his pocket.

"Tell me, who's getting married?" Rachel looks over at Kurt who's typing on his phone.

"I think Artie is. I think he and Kitty are getting married." Kurt said putting his phone down.

"When is the wedding?" Rachel asked.

"I don't know. Artie said that they were taking their time planning it." Kurt says.

"What about Santana?" Rachel asked about her ex.

"To be honest, I haven't heard from Santana in years Rachel. After you guys broke up, I think she went to Florida or New Mexico. I don't know." Kurt shrugs.

"Kurt, I have to know. I miss her." Rachel says with tears forming in her eyes.

"Rachel sweetie, I wish I could, but Santana and I weren't really friends, I mean we talked when we were in Glee club, Santana stayed to herself, even when you two dated." Kurt explains.

"Does Brittany or Puck know?" Rachel asked.

"Let me text them." Kurt texts both Puck and Brittany, he waits for them to respond.

"Well?" Rachel asked getting impatient.

"Brittany said she's in town, but Brittany didn't give me the address." Kurt looks over at Rachel sadly.

"Brittany is still mad at even after all these years." Rachel goes to pour her a drink.

"You sure you want that drink?" Kurt puts his phone on the table next to him and stand up.

"I need it, I can't even leave my fucking house sometimes because I'm afraid of killing someone. No one knows what it's like over there." Rachel said sipping on her drink.

"Rachel, drinking is not going to solve this. You have to at least go to therapy." Kurt said taking the drink away from her.

"Hey!" Rachel goes to get her drink back, but Kurt goes over to the sink and pours it out.

"Rachel, I know you're still missing Santana, but you can't blame yourself for what your fathers did to you." Kurt tells the former Navy Seal.

"They made me leave her Kurt, Santana is the love of my life and I left her. I tried to contact her, but she changed her fucking phone number and address. I feel like hurting my father's right now." Rachel feels her blood boil because of what her father's did to. They caused Rachel to lose Santana.

"Go home and no drinking Rachel." Kurt said handing Rachel her keys.

"Okay fine." Rachel grabs her phone and leaves Kurt's house. Rachel gets into her car and heads home. She walks into her house and sits down on her couch.

"I love you Santana." Rachel sets the timer on her phone and falls asleep for a while.

With Santana

Santana walks out of her office and walks into her daughter's room. She sees her 7 year old daughter Madison Janae Lopez-Berry. That's right The Santana Lopez got pregnant by her ex-girlfriend Rachel Berry. After Graduation Santana started to feel sick, that's when she found out she was pregnant. Rachel was already gone around the time Santana found out. Her parents weren't too happy with her being pregnant at the age of 18.

"Maddi baby? You okay?" Santana goes to sit down on her daughter's bed.

"Why do kids pick on me?" Madison asked looking up at Santana with her sad brown eyes.

"They're jealous of you baby, that's why. Why do you think you're different?" Santana asked her daughter.

"No, maybe it's because I'm just like my other mommy." Madison cries.

"Honey, you're not a freak or anything. You're normal. Your mom was the same way." Santana says. Santana told Madison about Rachel when she was 5. Santana didn't want her daughter finding out from someone else. Madison and Santana are so close.

"Really?" Madison wipes her tears away.

"Yep, your mom was so special to me. Now mami is happy with Dani." Santana said hugging Madison.

"Dani is pretty cool." Madison smiles at her mom.

"Wanna help cook dinner?" Santana stands up.

"Sure. I love cooking." Madison heads down the steps going into the kitchen. Santana was about to head downstairs, but she goes back into her office and pulls out an old photo of her and Rachel from their high school days.

"Fuck, why did you leave me?" Santana puts the photo back into drawer and heads downstairs. She sees Madison pulling out ingredients for the food.

"Started without me?" Santana questions as her daughter.

"You miss her don't you?" Madison asked looking at her mom. Santana doesn't lie to her daughter.

"Yeah, everyday. I don't even know if she's alive or not." Santana puts the chicken in some flour.

"Ask around. I want to see her." Madison said.

"I will honey. Promise." Santana puts the chicken into the frying pan. Santana and Madison finishes dinner and they set the table. Dani came home and they all ate the food talking about how their days went. Santana takes a long hot shower thinking about Rachel.

"Where the fuck are you Berry?" Santana asked herself with her head under the shower head.
