So the story is beginning and review please b/c I'm not sure really where im going and how it will turn out. There should be some flashbacks too!


Chapter 2: The Flu

He was fifteen minutes late. It really wasn't a big deal since every-time he dropped our daughter off every week he was late, but this time was different. He called me yesterday and explained how they were out for a walk when it started to rain and now she has a little cold. For all I know it's gotten much worse.

It was the end of October so it was chilly outside, he better of made sure she was wearing her coat. My ex husband is a very musically talented person, a dedicated teacher, but when it came to our little girl, he was soft. He doesn't put the law down as much as he should and he gives her pretty much what ever she wants. She spoils her so much.

I try not to critique his parenting skills because the bottom line is that our little girl loves her father so much and he is devoted to her.

I finally get them in eye sight, thankfully she was wearing layers and her blue scarf I bought her right before she left with her dad. He wasn't dressed as warm though, a simple red long sleeved shirt. I smile as she lets go of his hand and comes running over to me.

I crouched down and open my arms as she runs in to me. "I missed you." She says and I hold her tighter. "I missed you too, sweetheart." I say and she lets go and I put my hand to her forehead. She was burning up. "How are you feeling?" I ask and she smiles.

"I'm fine, I'm not sick so I can go trick or treating tomorrow!" She was really excited about that. We picked out her pirates costume about a month ago. I stand up to greet her daddy.

"I can't believe you got her sick." I say quietly so she couldn't hear. "It wasn't my fault it started to rain." He says and I just nod. "It will be your fault if she can't trick or treat tomorrow." I say and he frowns a little. "She'll be okay to go." I sigh. "Yeah, I'll decide tomorrow. So how was she?" I ask as I see our daughter start to walk a little away from us.

I know she wanted to get home to watch Fringe, she's 8 years old but she's in love with it ever since her father introduced it to her.

"She was like every other time, perfect." He says and smile. "Well I guess I'll get her home, I'll see you in two weeks." I say and he smiles. I turn to the little girl. "Addison, come say bye to your dad." She races over to him and he lifts her up to say good bye.

"Be good as always and all see you in two weeks." He says. "I love you, dad." She says. Recently this year she's gotten out of calling us mommy and daddy so now it's just dad and mom.

"Love you too, kiddo." He lets her down and gives me one more smile and then I take Addy's hand and we start walking to the house.


Addison passed out on the couch right when we got home. It was so cute, I hope her cold gets better because I really don't want to tell her she can't go trick or treating tomorrow.

I hear a knock at the door and run to get it so they don't ring the doorbell next. I swing it open and smile when I see Finn who was holding a mini jar of jelly beans, Addy's favorite.

When me and my husband got a divorce I still wanted Addison to have a strong male figure in her life while she was with me, she loves Finn and he loves her.

It's been what? 10 years since glee club with the 13 of them, I've lost contact with Santana, Brittany, Lauren, Rachel, and Puck. I'm still good with the rest of them and each month Blaine and Kurt stop by to visit their favorite little girl and Kurt insists on spoiling her with designer clothes but Addy is turning into a tom boy so it's a lost cause.

Quinn comes out here sometimes too, Addy loves Quinn and vice versa. Quinn always tells me that Addison is like a mini me, same hair, same eyes, same nose, the only thing she has of her father is his personality. She's the funniest kid I know.

Anyways, I let Finn in and I notice him smile a little when he sees Addy sleeping on the couch. "How is she?" I called him last night about her cold.

"She has a temperature but she says she feels fine. I don't know." Finn looked sad. "I was looking forward to taking her out tomorrow." Addy asked Finn to take her trick or treating two weeks ago and Finn felt honored.

"Will see tomorrow, if not, there's always next year." He just nods. "Such a responsible mother and you're only 27. Damn, have you grown up." After 8 years of being a parent he still makes fun of me.

"So how's the shop going?" I ask him changing the subject. "Fine as always, how's teaching a bunch of delinquents?" I smile at that. Compared to our high school years, the kids now are angels.

"Fine, Nick and the glee club won Sectionals over the weekend." I say proudly. Nick's glee club has won Nationals two years straight so far, he's going for win three.

"That's awesome! Isn't glee like cool to be in now thanks to him?" I smile. "It seems like it, a lot more than 14 kids in the club, that's for sure."

Soon Addy wakes up and she talks to Finn for a little while about her week.


It's 8 o'clock and all the kids had already started trick or treating. Addy's temperature got worse so I'm not letting her out, she's pretty upset, so is Finn. Finn still came over thought to cheer her up but she locked herself in her room, so I made Finn hand out candy while I'm trying to get my daughter to open her door.

"C'mon baby girl, open the door." I felt so bad. "If I was with dad he'd let e go." I sigh, she was right though. "How about this, if you come out I'll tell you a story." I didn't really know where I was going with this.

"What kind of story?" Yes, I got her interested. "How about... I tell you about me when I was younger." I could tell her about glee club and stuff. "Your love life?" She opens the door and smiles. I wasn't thinking about that.

"My love life? There have only been three main guys and one of them was your father." She was still smiling. "Make it a mystery, change their names or something." What a curious little 8 year old I had.

I sigh. "Fine, but you have to come downstairs." She was already half way down the stairs by now. I walk down and find her on the couch with Finn telling him how it was story time.

"Finn, you want to hear mom's love story! I'm going to figure out which ones dad!" Addy was too excited now. Finn looks over at me funny. "I'm going to tell her the story about my three main relationships over the years." I say and he gives me this look.

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" I smile. "Yeah, Addy wants to know, but I'm changing their names so she can figure out which one her father is on her own." I say and he nods.

"Okay mom, start!" She was too excited. I sit down next to her. "Okay, well I guess I should begin in my senior year of high school..."

Flashback

Me and Finn were at the coffee shop, he had a week off from college so we've been hanging out everyday. "Rachel got the lead in the musical they're doing at Julliard." I say and Finn scoffs. "Of course she did." He says and I chuckle. "You said you were over her." He nods.

"So how are you and what's his face doing? You guys hit three months now, right?" He asks me and I smile. He hasn't met Ronnie yet, but I know he'll like him.

"His name is Ronnie and yes we did." I couldn't help but smile, Ronnie has been amazing to me. Since Puck went off to college in New York he broke up with me, I wanted to try and do long distance but he didn't, so once we broke up, I met Ronnie. Literally, the day after Puck, Rachel, Quinn, Sam, Blaine, and Kurt went to New York I met Ronnie at the park.

He tried to hit on me and I basically laughed in his face, then first day of senior year, he came for glee auditions. He has this amazing voice too, oh, and gorgeous brown eyes.

"I still think it's weird you're dating a freshman." He says grinning. "For the last time, he's not a freshman! He was a transfer student and is my age." Finn just likes to make fun of me.

Suddenly I feel arms come around me and I see Finn's facial expression turn confused. "Hey babe." I get a kiss on my cheek and smile. He lets go of me and takes the empty chair next to me. "Ronnie, I'm glad you're here, I'd like you to meet my friend, Finn. Finn, this is Ronnie." I say and they shake hands.

"It's nice to meet you, Kate's talks a lot about you." Ronnie says and Finn smirks. "Yeah, we were just talking about you." I smile at that. "I'm glad you guys got to meet before Finn went back on campus." I say and Ronnie takes my hand making me smile again.

They start to talk a little and I was glad Finn accepted him, I was actually expecting Finn to not like Ronnie at all. Last year, after sometime he became pro Puck so yeah.

We hear the door bell ring and Addison springs up to get it. "Don't continue until I'm back!" She says and answers the door. "I remember that but I thought his name was..." I cut Finn off. "I'm changing their names so Addy can try and figure out which ones her father on her own.

"She already knows all three of the guys, doesn't she?" He asks and I nod. "She's met them, sure, but I think it will be nice if she figures out who they were and who've they've become." I say and Finn nods.

Addy comes running back on the couch. "Okay, so we've met the high school sweet heart who could possibly be my dad, but I doubt it, I mean, Finn always says how high school relationships don't work out in the end." My daughter is too smart for her age, that's all I have to say.

"You know, I think I should get home." Finn says getting up and Addy frowns. "Awww, but now I don't get to know what happens until tomorrow." I was confused.

"We can continue without Finn, honey." I say but she nods no. "Finn has to be here for the story too." She says making me smile, I turn to FInn.

"Okay, then after work tomorrow I'll come over and we can continue to learn about this Ronnie kid." FInn says and Addy gives him a hug. This is going to be an interesting week.
