Unfinished Business

The former Glee Club members had been hanging out and catching up with everyone for a few hours when they heard the school doors being thrown open and hurried footsteps rushing down the hallway.

The sound of high heels clacking against the cheap linoleum floor caused the reunited Glee Club to stop and crane their necks to look into the hallway. A midget spitfire who glowed like the sun burst into the choir room, her dark hair slightly askew and her eyes roaming the room looking for something or someone. "Sorry I'm late everyone. Now give me my baby!"

Piper threw herself out of Sam's arms and ran towards Rachel, a smile lighting up her face. "Mommy!"

Rachel caught her daughter and spun her around, laughing giddily. Puck had forgotten how her beauty took his breath away. She had been in his dreams in high school, and Puck assumed that now that he'd lain his eyes on her again, she'd make a recurring appearance in his nighttime fantasies. Sam shoving off his chair caused Puck to snap out of his daydreams of the nights to come. The blonde made his way up to the girl he'd barely said any words to in high school and hugged her tightly, looking as if he never wanted to let her go. Puck felt a ridiculous itch begin to form, an itch caused by jealously. They looked way closer than just two best friends, and Puck thought he imagined a look of pain on Quinn's face before shaking off his imagination.

Santana laughed and threw herself at the mystery that was Rachel Berry. Sam stepped back and made his way back to Quinn, giving the two reunited girls some space. Kurt and Blaine also made their way over quickly to hug her.

Rachel laughed before pulling herself from the group hug. "Sorry I'm late everyone, but I had to make a stop on the way to the US and pick up a few things."

Kurt looked around the room. "What did you have to pick up?"

Finn, dressed in his army fatigues, made his way through the doorway. "She had to pick up me."

Kurt, catching sight of his step-brother, began to weep. He threw himself into Finn's opened arms and bawled, grabbing onto Finn like a life line. Blaine looked at Rachel like Christmas had come early. He laughed in delight before asking her disbelievingly, "How did you do this?"

Rachel shrugged modestly and looked through her eyelashes at Finn and Kurt's reunion. "One of my friends is a corporal and he owes me a few favors. I decided to cash one in. I felt bad about lying about missing my flight, but the flight to pick Finn up was going to take longer than my direct flight to Lima." Rachel made her way to an empty chair and pulled Piper up onto her lap. She smiled down at the little girl that was a miniature version of her mother. "Are you excited for your daddy's wedding?"

Piper giggled in delight before throwing her hands up in the air excitedly. "I'm the flower girl! I have a white dress that Natasha picked out and then Daddy bought me new shoes and Aunt Mercedes and Uncle Kurt are doing my hair!"

Rachel smiled indulgently at Piper. "I can't wait to see your dress. All the boys are gonna be staring at you all night due to how pretty you are."

Puck looked at Blaine questioningly. "Who's Natasha? And Berry's baby daddy is getting married?"

Blaine rolled his eyes at Puck's vocabulary. "Natasha is Piper's stepmother-to-be. And this is thought to be the Broadway wedding of the century. Natasha is a Russian dancer who right now dances in the Broadway musical that Piper's dad stars in. They're getting married on the stage that they perform on together 8 shows a week." Blaine seemed to swoon.

Puck smirked. "So you're saying that they're getting married in the place they spend all their time in. They sound like workaholics to me."

Rachel looked over at Puck for the first time since she arrived. "According to the tabloids, you spend your entire life in those recording studios. Pot, meet kettle."

Rachel smirked at Puck's fake pout. But then Puck's pout became a grin. "Berry, are you saying that you've been keeping tabs on me? What, you miss the gun show?"

Rachel rolled her eyes. "Have you seen the men I work with? I don't need anymore guys showing me their biceps. But of course I've kept tabs on you, Noah! I'm very proud of everything that you've accomplished."

Puck grinned at the beaming brunette. "Thanks, Rach. Means a lot."

Rachel shrugged modestly. Blaine elbowed her and gave her a meaningful look, and Rachel's eyes widened as if just remembering something.

"Oh my gosh! I totally forgot something. Everyone, I have an announcement." Everyone stopped their conversation and turned to face Rachel. "I've just recently finished my latest movie, and I have an amazing opportunity coming up." Blaine came up and stood next to her. "I'm sorry, we have an amazing opportunity coming up. You are now looking at the future stars of Broadway's Beauty and the Beast. I'm Belle, and Blaine Anderson here is a big furry beast who I get to fall in love with."

Everyone stood up and began congratulating Rachel and Blaine. Piper and Kurt were sitting on their chairs, talking about living in New York. Suddenly, a tall man with tan skin and a wide smile burst through the door.

"Rach!"

Rachel turned around and smiled at the man. "Antony? What are you doing here?"

Suddenly Piper skyrocketed towards the man. "Daddy!"

Puck stared at the man that had knocked up Rachel Berry, Broadway star Antony Benton.

A/N- Not really a cliffhanger, but kind of a cliffhanger at the same time. Why's Antony in Lima? Where's his fiance Natasha? Will Puck make a move on Rachel?
And two years later, I've returned. So sorry it's taken so long, but I've finally completed Caught In Your Web of Lies and am able to fully focus on this story. Once I'm done with this story, I'll be able to start writing all the new stories that have been going around and around in my head lately. I hope this chapter was worth the wait and I can't wait for y'all to read the rest of the story as well! Happy reading!
