Full Summary: Shelby is Rachel's biological mother. Her and Rachel's dad, Mathia, had her together. It later leads into other family problems.

Disclaimer: I do not own Glee. I wish I did.

"MUMMMMYYYYY. DADDDDDYYYYYY. IT IS TIME TO GET UP!". Yelled a little ball of energy bounding into her parents room early one morning. The woman she landed on groaned.

"Rach, sweetie, it's 6:30 in the morning, why do have to be up so early?". Asked Shelby as she ran a hand through Rachel's hair. Rachel giggled.

"Because silly, daddy said we can have breakfast as a family before you go off to work". Replied Rachel smiling.

"Oh did he now?".asked Shelby as she looked at her husband who pretended to be asleep.

"Yup yup!". Giggled Rachel as she nodded her head up and down.

"Well, why don't you go downstairs and pop on some cartoons, whilst mummy and daddy get ready?". Asked Shelby as she lifted Rachel up and placed her on the ground.

"Otay mummy". Giggled Rachel as she skipped off down the stairs.

"I know you're not asleep Mathia. Wake up!". Said Shelby as she pushed her husband out of the bed who landed on the ground with a thud.

"Gee, thanks Shelbs, I love you too". Replied Mathia as he jumped up on the bed and onto his wife and tickled her.

"Mathia! Stop! Stop it!". Squealed Shelby as he husband tickled her. Mathia held Shelby's hands above her head and he leant down and kissed her.

"I love you". Whispered Mathia.

"I love you too". Replied Shelby.

"MUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMYYYYY".

"Hey Shelby, you going home to see that little munchkin of yours?". Asked a male voice from behind Shelby later that evening. Shelby turned around and came face to face with her work colleague John.

"Oh hello John, yeah I am. I miss my little Rachie". Smiled Shelby.

"She is quite a cutie! You got any grading to do?". Asked John.

"Ha. You know it! But anyways, I'm going to head off! I'm going to go home early, then pick up Rachie from pre school and take her to the park! Give her a little bit of a surprise!". Smiled Shelby as she picked up her belongings.

"You're a good mum! I'll see you later Shelbs!". Said John as Shelby headed out to her car and hopped in.

As Shelby arrived in her driveway, she noticed another car in the driveway that she had not seen before. She grabbed her things and got out of her car and walked up the driveway to the door. As she entered her house, she noticed a trail of clothing leading up the stairs. Shelby followed the trail and stopped as it reached her closed bedroom door. Shelby took a deep breath and entered the room. She gasped upon entering. Sitting on her bed was her husband and another male both naked.

"Shel-Shel-Shelby, what are you doing home so early?". Stuttered Mathia.

"Maybe I should be asking you that? What happened here?". Asked Shelby.

"It's not what it looks like honey". Said Mathia as he pulled the sheets closer.

"Not what it looks like? Are you kidding me? You're in bed with another man! How long has this been going on?". Asked Shelby tearfully.

"I..". started Mathia before Shelby cut in.

"How long?". Asked Shelby harder. Mathia sighed.

"Three months, I didn't expect you to find out like this". Whispered Mathia. Shelby shook her head.

"I cant do this". Said Shelby as she walked out of the bedroom and grabbed her things and left.

"Daddy, where's mummy?". Asked Rachel later that even as she and her fathered watched Beauty and the Beast.

"I don't know pumpkin, I think mummy's working late". Replied Mathia. Rachel sighed.

"I miss mummy". Replied Rachel.

"Why's that sweetie? I'm standing right behind you". Said Shelby from nere the front door.

"MUMMY!". Squealed Rachel as she jumped of the lounge and leapt into her mothers awaiting arms.

"Where have you been young lady? We were so worried". Said Rachel as she laid her head in the crook of Shelby's neck.

"I didn't know you were my mother". Laughed Shelby as she kissed Rachel's head.

"But I think it's time for you to go to bed". Continued Shelby.

"You wead me a story?". Asked Rachel

"What's the magic word?". Asked Shelby.

"Pweeety pweeze with gold stars on top". Smiled Rachel.

"Good girl! Now, say goodnight to daddy". Said Shelby.

"Goodnight daddy! Wuv you". Parroted Rachel with a giggle. Mathia got up and walked over to the pair.

"Goodnight Pumpkin". Said Mathia as he kissed Rachel's cheek. Shelby smiled and then walked up the stairs to Rachel's room. An hour later, Shelby came down the stairs and sighed as she seen Mathia sitting on the lounge waiting for her.

"Mathia, please, don't do this. I really don't want to do this". Whispered Shelby.

"Please, you deserve to know". Replied Mathia. Shelby sighed. She went and sat herself at the end of the lounge and got comfortable.

"Okay, talk". Said Shelby.

"A few months ago at the law firm, I was finishing up this case when I was told we were getting a new lawyer. His name was Adam Jones. Then, all of us went out for dinner. Adam and I then decided to go out for drinks. We got really drunk, and we then had sex. We vowed to never do it again. But then it happened, time after time. We've been having an affair for three months behind your back. I'm so sorry, but I think I'm gay and that I like Adam". Said Mathia. Shelby sat in silence for awhile before she spoke.

"You're gay? What happened to the man I married seven years ago?". Asked Shelby.

"I'm sorry Shelby, I didn't mean for this to happen. I fell in love. I didn't mean to hurt you". Whispered Mathia.

"You didn't mean to hurt me? How about Rachel? Did you mean to hurt her? What are we going to tell her?". Asked Shelby pointing up the stairs at her daughters bedroom. Mathia sighed and rubbed his face.

"I don't know. You both mean the world to me, but I don't love you like I use to anymore. Rach may have to move between us. Even though I don't know what she's going to do without you. She loves you more then she loves me. She's always been a mummy's girl". Said Mathia.

"She has. I guess we will have to sort it out later then". Said Shelby. Shelby and Mathia sat there staring at each other. Both lost in their own thoughts.
