Note: this story will as of right now have two relationships in it, Faberry romantic relationship and A Shelby/Rachel mother daughter relationship.

We turn now to Kurt and Rachel talking by her locker while looking over their schedules.

Kurt: so what do you have first period.

Rachel: English with Miss-

Kurt: what is it Rachel.

Rachel: it says Miss Corcoran.

Kurt:(surprise) your kidding, let me see that.

He snatched it away from her and read the English teachers name.

Kurt: well I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

Rachel: I hope so.

But unfortunately as she walked into the classroom she saw that her mother was indeed the English teacher. Rachel was lost in her own thoughts when Shelby addressed her.

Shelby: hello Rachel.

Rachel: oh, hi Shelby, although it's Miss Corcoran now isn't it.

Shelby:(meekly) yeah.

Kurt: well this isn't awkward at all.

Rachel: oh I didn't know you had this class this period Kurt.

Kurt: well you walked off before I tell you.

Shelby: go ahead and take your seats.

Rachel: alright.

Once class got started there came a female voice over the intercom.

Intercom: good morning Mckinley High, there are a few announcements that need to be made, first and foremost I am Amy Hicks and I will be your new principle, second is that Shelby Corcoran is going to be replacing Will Shuester as the Glee Club director and the last announcement of the day is that Emma Pillsbury and Sue Sylvester have both been fired from the school, thank you.

In Shelby's class a bunch of hands went up.

Person One: what happened to Figgins?

Shelby: he quit at the end of last year.

Rachel: why are you replacing Mr. Shuester as the glee club director?

Shelby: he was unqualified to direct a glee club.

Kurt: and you are?

Shelby: I have a double major in Show-Choir and English.

Person Two: why were Miss Pillsbury and Coach Sylvester fired.

Shelby: Miss Pillsbury was unqualified and Principle Hicks considered Coach Sylvester's methods too cruel, now let's start class.

TIME SKIP_GLEE CLUB

everyone filled into the choir room followed closely by Shelby.

Shelby: hello everyone I am Shelby Corcoran and I will be your new glee club director, now the first thing I do every year is have a contest to decide who the two best performers are, once that is decided every number we do will be centered around either one or both of them.

Tina: but why.

Shelby: that is the formula I had with Vocal Adrenaline and because of it I have not only gotten several national championships but I have at the very least gotten into the top 10 every year.

Finn: but were not Vocal Adrenaline.

Shelby: so what? This is a winning formula and I promise you I can at the very least help you win regionals, now I'm going to hold the "leads competition" next meeting so I will give you the rest of this period to prepare.

And so everyone started prepare for the "leads competition".

TIME SKIP_AFTER COMPETITION

the glee club was anxiously awaiting the results of the competition.

Shelby: so I have decided that our first lead will be Rachel Berry, and our second lead will be Quinn Fabray.

The entire room had their jaws on the floor.

Quinn: but miss Corcoran you can't expect me to-

Shelby: I do expect you to Quinn so please try to be mature about this.

Quinn wasn't sure what to say except.

Quinn:(sigh) fine.

Finn: but Miss Corcoran don't the leads have to be boy/girl?

Shelby: hardly Finn, I said the two best performers and Quinn is the second best in the club right now so she plays opposite Rachel, end of story, now as the leads the two of you will be working closely with both each other and me, is that understand.

Q&R: yes Maim.

The bell rang and everyone started to leave.

Shelby: Rachel, Could I have a word?

Rachel:(annoyed) yes Miss Corcoran.

Shelby: listen Rachel, I want to apologize for what I did to you last year.

Rachel: really?

Shelby: yeah, I'm not sure what I was thinking beforehand but when we met for the first time and you were all grown up I just figured there probably wasn't any room for me anymore, and I didn't realize until this week what with teaching you in English and glee that I even if I thought that I should have at least tried.

Rachel: yeah you should've.

Shelby: so what do you say, willing to give me another chance.

Rachel: of course.

Shelby: great, how about you can help me watch Beth on Saturday.

Rachel: Beth?

Shelby: she's the baby I adopted last year right after regionals.

Rachel: she doesn't happen to be Quinn Fabray's baby does she?

Shelby: uh-huh.

Rachel: then I'll ask her if she wants to join us.

Shelby: great idea.

Rachel walked out of the choir room and managed to catch up to Quinn in the parking lot.

Rachel: hey Quinn I was wondering if you wanted to go and see Beth at Miss Corcorans place on Saturday.

Quinn: Beth, as in the baby I gave up last year.

Rachel: that's right.

Quinn: I'll think about it.

Rachel: awesome.

TIME SKIP_ SATURDAY_SHELBY'S PLACE

Rachel was helping Shelby watch Beth when there was a knock at the door, Rachel answered it to reveal Quinn.

Rachel: Quinn, you made it.

Quinn: well I figured it might be nice to see my baby.

Rachel: Shelby actually just put her down.

Quinn: that's fine.

Shelby:(from in kitchen) oh-no.

Rachel: something wrong Shelby?

Shelby: I just ran out of milk for Beth, oh hey Quinn, look could you two stay here while I run to the store.

Rachel: no problem.

Shelby: great.

And with that she left leaving Quinn and Rachel alone in Shelby's apartment, they went over and sat on the couch.

Quinn: you know Rachel, I've been doing some thinking and I've realized something.

Rachel: what's that Quinn?

Quinn: that I've never been happy with any of the guys I've ever been with.

Rachel: Really? That's a surprise.

Quinn: I know, I didn't even realize it until I started thinking about it.

Rachel: so what do you think it is.

Quinn: I'm not sure but lately I've started to notice things that I never did before.

Rachel: like what?

Quinn: like for instance how nice your ass looks in jeans.

Rachel:(blush) Quinn.

Quinn leaned towards Rachel with a wanting look on her face.

Quinn: or how great your legs look in those short skirts.

She put her hand on Rachel's thigh which made her shoot up and back away real slow.

Rachel: (slightly wary) Q-Quinn, are you okay?

Quinn: never felt better, I just never realized how attractive you are.

Rachel: uumm, maybe I should go.

Quinn tried to protest but she shot out the door too quickly.

Quinn:(smiled mischievously) oh I'll get you yet Rachel, don't you worry.

Note: Quinn's story of how she got to this point of hitting on Rachel will be told next chapter.
