AN: Thank you for the reviews and reading my story!
This chapter is more of filler then anything, but it will lead to good stuff!
Disclaimer: I was told I had to do this. Obviously I don't own Glee or Gwynth Paltrow.
Chapter 2
"Do you really think it's a good idea?" Will asked his wife.
"Of course it is. We can trust our kids." Shelby reassured.
"We can trust Rachel and Blaine, but Puck and Santana? I'm not so sure. We can't just leave for a week."
"Come on we went through this. Rachel will surely call if anything is going on," Shelby assured, wrapping her hands round her husband's neck.
"I guess we do need a break," Will agreed.
"That's the spirit. Now go finish packing and we'll break the news to the kids," Shelby ordered.
"Break it? They'll be celebrating after," Will grumbled.
...
"Guys, family meeting!" Shelby called from the kitchen.
"Puck, what did you do now?" Santana grumbled at her brother.
"I didn't do anything... I think."
The kids got in to the kitchen and sat across from their parents.
"Is this about how Blaine broke my CD player? I think we need to discuss that," Rachel demanded.
"How many times do I have to apologize for that?" Blaine groaned.
"Obviously not enough, that's what were here to discuss," Rachel continued.
"Actually Rachel," Will interrupted. "We wanted to announce something that involves all of you."
"Cut to the chase Dad," Santana commanded. "What's the deal?"
"Your father and I are going to Hawaii for a week," Shelby announced.
"Wait, what? Why?" Rachel questioned. "You can't just leave."
"We decided that Rachel is in charge," Shelby cut in.
"Hell no!"
"Are you crazy?"
"How can you do this to us?"
This was many of the responses that the parents got.
"Why does Rachel get to be in charge? I'm older," Puck complained.
"So am I," Santana added.
"We know that, but I'm sure you already know why we didn't pick you two," Shelby laughed.
"Seriously? She thought that the family meeting was about me breaking her stereo," Blaine began.
"Which will be an important matter to discuss when I'm in charge," Rachel interrupted.
"Why can't it be me?" Blaine grunted.
"You're too young, Blaine darling." Shelby acknowledged.
The kids eventually run out of things to argue on, and were stuck now on simple questions.
"When are you going?" Blaine asked.
"Two days," Shelby answered.
"We left out a list of numbers and rules on this sheet," Will instructed, showing them the sheet.
Rachel promptly picked it up scanning over the list, while the others didn't bother to take a second look.
"Is that it?" Shelby asked, the four of them nodded their heads. "Right, well we have to finish packing."
Shelby and Will went up the stairs, while their kids stayed sitting around the table.
"We get the house to ourselves for a whole week," Puck grinned.
"I've got a feeling this will be good," Santana smirked.
"Oh no, we're following every rule on this list," Rachel hissed.
"Lighten up Rachel," Puck grumbled.
"We're doing everything on this list. End of discussion," Rachel ordered.
Santana and Puck shared a glance, luckily Rachel didn't notice. Blaine on the other hand did.
"This is going to be on heck of a week," Blaine thought to himself.
After two days Will and Shelby were ready to go. They had everything ready and were waiting for the taxi to bring them to the airport.
Both of them kissed their four kids goodbye.
"I think I forgot to mention," Shelby spoke up.
"You didn't actually think we are that stupid," Will smirked.
"What are you talking about?" Santana asked.
"We aren't going to let you stay here on our own," Will stifled a laugh.
"We got you guys a sort of baby-sitter to stay here with you," Shelby explained.
"Baby-sitter?" Puck gasped. "Mom we're not ten!"
"No you're eighteen, which is worse. We don't want to come home to a destroyed house," Will nagged.
"Who is it then? Is it someone we know?" Blaine asked.
"A stranger? No way, they could be murderers," Rachel squeaked.
"Guys it's just my sister, Holly," Shelby reassured.
The disappointed look on the kids' faces was gone, except Rachel's.
"Mom you know how Holly is. You can't trust us but y-"
"That's great Mom!" Puck interrupted Rachel's ranting.
"Why did you tell us we were going to be on our own?" Santana sulked.
"We didn't want you guys going on how you were old enough to take care of yourselves for the next two days. We decided to leave it till the last minute," Will explained.
"Then why did you tell me I was in charge," Rachel grumbled.
"That might have been for fun," Shelby smirked, but then saw the angry expression on Rachel's face. "No, but even Holly needs to be sorted out. Rachel you make sure everything is running smoothly."
"Well hey guys!" Holly exclaimed from the doorway.
Even though the kids were disappointed they wouldn't be on their own, they still were happy to see their fun aunt.
Holly hugged all of the kids.
"Hey Shel," Holly greeted her sister.
"Right we talked about the rules on the phone," Shelby nodded.
"Yup, these guys will be little angels when you get back," Holly guaranteed.
"That's good," Will began, but was cut off when he heard the taxi arrive. "Well we better be going, we'll see you guys soon."
"Remember to email," Shelby told the kids, before they went out the door bags in hand.
"Bye have a good trip!" Holly called after them.
Holly closed the door shut. "Right well kick back and relax," Holly grinned at the kids.
"Well I'm going out," Blaine announced walking out.
"Wait, but its nine o clock," Rachel responded, stopping him.
"Yeah so, I'll be home before eleven Rach," Blaine shrugged.
"Could you give me a lift to Britt's house?" Santana asked.
"Yeah sure," Blaine agreed, grabbing his keys.
Rachel gave Holly a stern look.
"Oh come on Rachel he said he'll be back before eleven," Holly pointed out. "Live a little Rach. You guys go on and have fun."
Rachel grumbled under her breath, heading up the stairs. She knew that it was going to be a manic week.
