Maria put her key in the door. She had just been on a date with Mike Chang, and now she was coming back to will's apartment with him. 'Would you like to come and see Noah again? He's missed you' she said giggling. They walked in and saw Noah, running across the hallway screaming and holding Mr Shue's tie, which was still unfortunately attached to Mr schue who was running bent over, after him. Mr Schue looked up at them and you could see the look of relief on his face. 'Maria stop him please!' he said out of breathe and still running after Noah. 'Noah!' Maria shouted and he stopped immediately. 'What do you think your doing to Uncle Will?' she said annoyed. Why was he messing it up for her and Mike. He won't wanna go out with her if she can't control her kid. 'Sorry mommy' Noah said, somewhat horse after all that screaming. 'Hey… Mike' Mr Schue said, readjusting his tie. He turned to Maria who was picking up her son and trying with little success, to put his pyjamas on. 'You never told me you were on a date with mike?' he said confused. She looked at him, also confused. 'Correction, I told you I was going on a date, not necessarily with Mike.' She replied. Mike felt hurt. 'We have been going out for two months now and you didn't even tell, the guy whose supposed to be your dad?' he said annoyed. Maria handed Noah to Mr Schue. 'Mike, I can explain!' she said upset. 'No! We're through!' Mike said, angry, hurt and upset. He stormed out the door and Maria broke out in tears. Mike slammed the door and sat down in the hallway. Whimpering. 'Why is mommy crying?' Noah asked Will who just stared at Maria. He had never seen her cry like this before. She moved like a zombie out of the hall way and into her bedroom. She lay down on her bed and continuously sobbed into her pillow. Will walked into his ex-wife's old craft room, which had turned into a bedroom for Maria and Noah and put Noah in his cot. He had fallen asleep within seconds of asking that question. As soon as he sees his mom cry he sleeps. Weird child, Will thought. 'You really care about him. Huh?' he said in a whisper. Maria just nodded and turned around to sit up. Her mascara had run, her eyes were red and her nose was running. She sniffed and grabbed a tissue out of a near by box. 'So much. I didn't tell you cus I thought you'd disapprove, I'm supposed to be focusing on my studies. And Noah.' She said after she broke out in tears and turned back into her pillow. Will stood up and walked over to the door. He frowned and turned around one last time. He flicked the light switch and shut the door. 'Dear me, Maria. You really fell fast… and hard' he thought to himself.
