A/N: Thank you all for the reviews and the support. Also I got a report for stealing and the first chapter was just a summary of the ages, so sorry for anyone that I might of stole from. I never really tried to steal from someone, and I hope that this chapter will make this story different from someone else's. Again, I am sorry if the story sounds close to yours, but it will become more unique as the story keeps going on so please stay tuned. Here is Chapter 2!

December 18th 2006

Will POV

It's been about 3 hours since they took little Rachel Barbra. Since Shelby was asleep, I took this opportunity to go and tell the kids what is going on, and relieve Finn from babysitting duty.

"Hey dad, what's going on with mom?" 16 year old Finn asked me.

"She um... She just had a baby." I said hesitantly and sadly.

"Oh really, she popped out another?" 11 year old Noah said, with his new trademark smirk.

"Ow!" Noah hollered when Finn punched his arm for saying that.

"Noah, leave me and dad to talk, I will tell you what is going on later. Keep an eye out on everyone please, for me?" Finn tried to reason.

"Fine, but I'm not a baby you know." Noah mumbled as he walked back to the younger kids and the play room in the hospital waiting area.

"Dad what is going on, there is obviously something else, is something wrong with mom?" Finn asked scared.

"No Finn, your mom is just fine, she is sleeping right now though. It's your new sister that I am worried about." I said, slumping my shoulders.

"What do you mean, she must be healthy!" Finn all but shouted.

"Finn, calm down. Your mom was a little under 5 months when she gave birth. Your sister is very premature. They haven't gotten back to us on her condition. I'm worried though, because I don't think that it should of taken more than 2 hours and it's been almost 4." I whispered.

"Well, there is nothing we can do but sit and hope. What is her name, did you guys give her one?" Finn asked, hopeful.

"Her name is Rachel Barbra." I said smiling.

"That's beautiful dad, but I think that it is time to tell the munchkins." Finn said referring to the play room.

"Let's go."

Shelby POV

When I woke up, I was alone in a hospital room. It took me a little to realize that I was in a hospital because I just gave birth. To a little girl, that was more than 4 months early. I just noticed that Finn and Will were looking at me, expectantly.

"What guys?" I said tiredly.

"They got back to us on Rachel's condition." Will said slowly

"Well, what is it?" I asked waiting for an answer on the newest edition to the family.

"Finn, can you go and sit with Grandma and Poppy while I tell your mother." Will said, ignoring my question.

"Ok dad, whatever you need. See you in a little bit mom." Finn said and kissed my head and left the room. I looked at Will expectantly.

"Well, honey, she survived." Will said with a small smile.

"Really, that's amazing, but what is wrong. That isn't your smile honey." I said, maybe a little more harshly than I wanted.

"They said that she has a really high chance to develop cancer, a brain disease, or being paralyzed when she is a little older." Will whispered.

"What, is she healthy now" I said matching his tone.

"Right now, yes, she is as healthy as she can be. She is under intense watch by nurses and doctors, and she will stay there for about 4 months. They told me that they will keep us updated and that we can visit everyday and that they will give us and each of the kids cards to be able to get to see her without any trouble." Will started off strong, then started to whisper when he said that she will stay in the hospital for the first 4 months of her life.

"Ok, that is better than her being... d-de-dead." I said trying not to break down. When Will saw me about to break down, he crawled carefully on the bed and held me until I was released.

5 months later...

Shelby POV

Oh my god. It's been 1 extra month since they said that little Rachel can come home. It is now May 18th, 2007. Exactly 5 months after her birth, and she is almost as big as a new born baby. She is still on the small side. Will and I went to see her everyday since I was released. Will and I alternated the kids when they could come. They were assigned the days of the week. On Mondays were Finn, Noah, and Kurt. On Tuesdays were Quinn, Santana and Brittany. Wednesdays were Tina, Mike and Sam. Thursdays were just Will and I, just like on Sundays. Fridays were Finn, Noah, and Santana. They all wanted to be there for their younger sister, so they all wanted to come more. Will and I think that Rachel turned them all soft. Saturdays were everyone, then we went out for lunch, always talking about how Rachel looked that day, and about their weeks.

This schedule always worked out and we all enjoyed it, but we all wanted Rachel home, safe and sound. The phone ringing took me out of my dread of Rachel still being stuck in the hospital.

"Hello?" I asked tentatively.

"Hi, this is Deborah from Lima General Hospital, can I please speak to either, Will or Shelby Schuester." Deborah, the nurse, asked me.

"This is Shelby, what can I do." I asked with a lot of hope, hoping for Rachel to be able to come home again.

"You might want to come down with your family. You will be bringing home a new member today." Deborah said cheerfully.

"Really? Thank you very much!" I said, really shocked.

"Will, kids, everyone get down here!" I shouted really fast to keep myself from jumping up and down.

Once they all got there I had each of them sitting on either the floor or one of the many couches in the family room.

"Rachel is coming home today. So I want everyone on their best behavior and to come with me to pick her up, as a family." I said with a lot of excitement.

Rachel coming home is something really exciting. We had her nursery set up since she was born, pretty much. When she got home, everyone was bouncing with excitement that their sister was ok, but she has to go to the doctors every month, to make sure that she is totally healthy and that she going to be fine. Right now, I love my family, and I will do nothing to change it. I just hope that everything that we endure will be fine and keep us united as a family unit. I know life will get better from here. Now I am only a glass is half full, being an optimist, optimist (I stole that from my Idol Idina Menzel, she is the best).

A/N: Sorry again if this story still seems like it is stolen property, once I get into the normal time instead of the past, it will get unique, I hope. Again please review.

TATA for now! :)
