Saturday Morning
"Rachel, sweetie you need to get up."
"Huh? oh, hi daddy…what time is it?"
"It's 7:50am and I believe you have to be at a dance rehearsal in less than 1 hour?"
"WHAT! Daddy! If you knew that why didn't you wake me up earlier! I'm so late!
"Sweetie you have almost an hour and I can drive you there so hurry up."
"Thank you, daddy!" Rachel yelled as she ran to her bathroom to wash-up.
In another part of town
Knock… knock… knock….
"Quinnie are you awake?" asked her mother.
"Honey your friends are here."
"what?...mom could you please leave…it's too early…" mumbled Quinn into her pillow.
"Quinnie don't be rude, your friends are down stairs and I'll let them come up so you missy better wake up" said Judy while she turned and left her daughter's room.
"uhg..." Quinn growled when she heard S and B walk into her room.
"Q you have to wake up; you promised B to go to her cousin's dance rehearsal."
"Come on Q wake up, If you get up now there will be bacon for you" Santana coaxed.
"…FINE! There better be a lot of bacon!" Quinn got up and stomped to the bathroom to get ready for the day.
Britney and Santana both started laughing as Quinn walked away.
Dance Studio
"Thank you Daddy!" yelled Rachel as she ran out of the car and into the building.
As Rachel's dad Michael pulled away from the dance studio Santana pulled into the parking lot.
"Okay Q enough with the bacon, are you trying to gain all the weight you lost since summer started?"
"Whatever S…I just love bacon" Quinn said mouth full of bacon.
"Well don't get your bacon grease on my car! And hurry up and get out or were going to miss the beginning Q!"
"okay..okay! I'm coming gee… don't get your panties in twist!" mumbled Quinn.
As the girls entered the building, they noticed how big and elegant the building looked inside compared to the outside. As the three girls walked down the hallway of the studio they noticed the trophy case full of awards and pictures of different competitions that the dancers from the studio had won over the years. As the girls admired all the trophies that was bigger then the Cheerios which was saying something; they heard a familiar voice.
"it couldn't be..." stated Quinn.
"Well we know she does take dance lessons during the school year maybe she goes to this studio; it is the only one in town." Stated Britney which made Quinn stare shocked that Britney knew that.
"Whatever lets just go see your cousin B."
"Okay" said Britney clapping her hands and leading the girls to the main auditorium to where dancers where filling the stage.
On stage:
"Everyone to your places, please" said the choreographer.
"Ella, will you start and Rachel you come in two beats after."
"Alright queue music" yelled the choreographer.
As the 3 Cheerio's watched the performance they couldn't help but admire the grace and beauty of the dance that was being shown to portray a story.
"Wow, look at Berry, I didn't know she could move like that let alone look so different actually pretty with out her hideous clothing." stated Santana.
"Yes I agree, and El looks so good too!" stated Britney with a soft smile gracing her features as she watched her cousin and Rachel intently.
Quinn stayed quiet through all the dance rehearsals.
As the dancers were leaving the auditorium the three girls waited outside for Ella.
"Rachel, you were great like always." said Ella
"Oh please, you were far more graceful then I could ever be." replied Rachel.
"Every summer you say you're not better than me but I have to say I disagree. You really need to give your self more credit. But Rachel if you want I can offer a few tips and my cousin Brit could help as well.
"Really that would be great. I need to improve by next summer because I'll be auditioning for Julliard. I need the full package in order to get into that school."
"Well from what I saw today I think you're ready for the audition and don't argue because that's how I see it. Julliard will be making a mistake if they didn't take you in, I mean they accepted me. Don't worry too much Rachel they will see what I see which, is star potential." stated Ella with a bright smile.
"Well I have to get going my cousin wanted to meet me. Rachel, here in my number if you want to practice just give me a call." Ella waved as she ran towards the double doors.
"Hey guys! Brit!" yelled Ella as she tightly bear hugged her cousin.
"So what did you think of the performance guys?" asked Ella.
"You were great!" replied the three girls in unison.
Ella laughed and told them she was hungry but needed to shower first after the strenuous rehearsal.
Ella's House:
"You girls can hang out for a little while. I'll only be 30 minutes top." Ella said as she ascended the stairs for the quick shower.
"Where should we go for lunch?" asked Quinn.
"Oh Ella introduced me to this diner at the edge town, they serve the best blueberry pancakes ever; we could go there." Brittney said clapping her hands excited.
"But I'm hungry now I don't want to drive all the way out there to get lunch." Santana complained.
"Oh come on S it's not that far and they have fresh pie everyday." Brittney added know fully that Santana could not resist any kind of pie that was freshly made.
"Fine" Santana grumbled knowing full well she couldn't say no to Brittney.
A little in bit later:
"Okay I'm clean now let get some food! Did you guys decide on a place to eat?" asked Ella as she came down the stairs in a short blue summer dress which made her blue eyes stand out more. Ella finished the look with her light blonde hair up in a loose bun.
Quinn and Santana thought at the same time that Brittney's cousin Ella looked identical to Brittney that they could be sisters than cousins.
"Yes, El do you remember the diner you took me to about three weeks ago. We want to go there."
"Okay, sure I remember let's go girls. Let's take my car since I'll be the one driving."
Ella stated. The girls hopped into the SUV and headed towards the diner.
Diner
"Welcome to 'Val's Diner' I'm Julie and I'll be your serving you today. Would you guys like to order drinks before you look over your menu?"
"Ugh..o..kay.. guys what do you want? I think I want a strawberry shake, you Brit?"
"A Cherry coke for me, Santana?"
"I'll have just a water, you Q?"
"Same here." Replied Quinn.
"Okay I'll be back with your drinks and here are your menus and today's pies are cherry, peach, and chocolate." Julie said while she walked away from them.
Santana just smiled when she heard about the pie selections. While the girls were chatting away with the food they ordered, they noticed loud chatting going on in the back of the diner and a voice that sounded very familiar.
Ella was the first to notice the brunette and smiled. "Rachel!" Ella called out to get the brunette's attention.
Hearing her name being called Rachel turned her head to spot Ella waving at her, but that was not the only face she recognized. "Ella…Hi. If I knew you were going to be hear we could have carpooled." Rachel stated. "Yeah I know, oh well so who did you here with?"
Choosing to ignore the trio, who were staring at her with shock; Rachel answers Ella. "Oh, just a few friends from theater camp over the years." "Who are you here with?" Rachel asked knowing fully well who Ella was with.
"Oh, is my cousin Brittney who I told you about earlier, and these two are her friends." Ella replied with smile oblivious to the looks the girls were giving Rachel.
"Oh, I see they look familiar, they might actually attend McKinley with me." Rachel stated dryly.
"Ella let me introduce you to of my friends." Rachel walked up to Ella and smiled to the trio and grabbed Ella away from the table.
"What the hell just happened; was the really Berry?" asked Santana. Too stunned to even comprehend what just occurred in front of them.
"Oh look they're friends" stated Brittney. Clueless as always to what had just transpired.
At the back of diner Quinn and Santana observed the interaction that was occurring in front of them. "This too weird, seeing Berry away from school looks actually normal." Santana mumbled. All Quinn did was nod in agreement.
Ella seemed to enjoying the company that Rachel introduced her to. The Rachel they saw seemed so carefree and relaxed that it didn't seem like the same person to them. Santana could actually see her befriending this version of Rachel Berry.
Ella was walking back to the trio's table with Rachel in tow. Both of them were laughing and conversing comfortably as they approached the table. "Well it was nice talking to you and your friends Rachel. Let's meet up tomorrow okay?"
"Yeah sure, Ella" Rachel said while giving the girl a hug and saying goodbye as well as her friends from the theater program. Rachel smirked at the trio as she walked out leaving the diner.
"How do you know her so well?" asked Quinn.
"Oh I've known Rachel for about 5 years now." Ella stated.
" oh…" was all Quinn could say. Quinn slowly felt a boiling in the pit of her stomach which she tried to ignore after watching the interaction between Ella and Rachel.
