Chapter 1.- Once Upon a time in New York City… It had been a wonderful summer. McKinley had seen so many things that year. It had become a sacred place for many of its old students. It had seen so many moments pass by on the halls in the blink of an eye. Half of the Glee Club had graduated and only a few had decided to stay on McKinley. Mr. Schue was still the principal. That summer things had gone well for Finn. He and Rachel had just gotten married and things were moving along extremely well. They had gone to Canada (because that´s where they wanted to go the first time they were going to get married) and then took a cruise on The Bahamas and their final stop would be New York. They had already paid all the moving expenses and had made Rachel´s and Finn´s parents arrange their house. The Hudson Berry clan had become a beautiful family. Once they returned to New York they wanted to invite their parents and family to celebrate the first reunion of many more to come. Their cruise had arrived to Florida and after that they´d take a plane to New York where Burt and Carole would wait for them to go home. Once they got to the JFK airport Finn couldn´t contain his joy. So he did what he knew best. Finn: Start spreadin' the news, I'm leavin' today I want to be a part of it New York, New York *Rachel and Finn get out of the airport where they see Burt and Carole outside their car. * Burt: These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray Finn and Burt: Right through the very heart of it New York, New York Rachel: I want to wake up, in a city that never sleeps Carole: And find I'm queen of the hill Both: Top of the heap *They drive through the streets looking at everything that surrounds them* Finn: These little town blues, are melting away I'll make a brand new start of it In old New York Burt: If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere It's up to you, New York..New York Finn: New York...New York I want to wake up, in a city that never sleeps Finn and Rachel: And find I'm A number one, top of the list King of the hill, A number one... *They finally arrive to their new house on the upper east side. They enter the building and take the elevator to their house* ALL: These little town blues, are melting away I'll make a brand new start of it In old New York * They stroll into their house and see Rachel´s dads there getting everything ready for their return* Hiram Berry: If I can make it there LeRoy Berry: I'll make it anywhere All: It's up to you, New York..New York New York! The apartment was gorgeous and big. It was decorated with a couple of paintings and pictures of Rachel and her parents, Finn and his parents, Finn and Rachel, their time on the New Directions, their high school graduation, and their college diplomas. The furniture was a combination between Rachel and Finn´s style. It looked modern, but it still kept the friendly touch Finn had always wanted to have. "We´re so glad you´re back honey" Hiram Berry said hugging his daughter. "I´m glad we´re back too" Rachel responded. "Hello Mr. Berry" Finn said shaking LeRoy´s hand "Good to see you Finn. How was your trip? Lovely I hope" LeRoy asked. "Amazing, sir. We had so much fun!" Finn answered. LeRoy padded his shoulder "That´s good to hear" He added "Ok, I don´t know about you but Carole and I are starving!" Burt said going to the table to take a seat. "I hope you like the menu" Hiram answered "I cooked it myself" "What are we having tonight?" Carole asked. Everyone was sitting down at the table that had been beautifully set by LeRoy "Well, we´re having my very own Sweet Curry Chicken recipe, my home made vegetable soup and for dessert a nut budding recipe that LeRoy´s mother used to make him" Hiram answered as he talked behind the kitchen bar serving the and Rachel were helping him so dinner would be served faster. Burt, and Finn helped LeRoy pour the wine and soon everyone was sitting at the table eating and having a wonderful time. Finn and Rachel talked about their experiences on their honey moon and everything they saw. Everything had been as they have always dreamt of. Once dessert came Rachel stood up. "Ok, I want to make a toast for everyone in this room sharing our home and all the wonderful new things that are going to happen. Finn, I feel so blessed having you by my side, you´ve been here on the good times, the bad times, the fun times and the awkward times. I have to tell you all something. I was going to wait, but I guess this is the perfect time " Rachel sighed and with a big smile and teary eyes she said "I´m pregnant". Everyone was surprised. Finn stood up and hugged Rachel as tight as his arms allowed him. Burt and Carole hugged the Berrys as they shouted "We´re going to be grandparents!" Finn and Rachel kissed. Suddenly, he realized that his life was going to change completely. He still had a job down at McKinley, a Glee Club to take care of, and a family that needed him around. Finn called Will Schuester to tell him about the news that night. It turned out that Emma had a couple months more of being pregnant too. He discussed the whole matter with Rachel, and both decided that the best thing for their baby was to grow up in New York. Both Rachel´s and Finn´s parents would help out with the baby if necessary. Finn had gotten a good job at the Performing Arts High School, thanks to Rachel´s biological mother: Shelby. She was in charge of the glee club and she was also the singing teacher. Finn was going to co-direct with her because of his previous experience on show choir competitions. The glee club´s name was Gold Stars, and it had begun 3 years ago. The school had developed a competitive spirit and they had turned out to be good but never had won any competition. Now that Shelby was in charge they had a really good chance of winning Nationals, and with Finn´s experience they be a team to root for.
