"Shit!" Shay Lopez-Pierce looked at the black spot on her eyelid. She cursed at her mascara and carefully began wiping the mascara off her eyelid with a swab soaked in make-up remover. She sighed of relief when she got the spot off without ruining her eyeliner.
"SHAY! BREAKFAST!" The sound of her brother Alex shouting filled her room. "COMING!" Shay shouted back. Too lazy to clean up her make-up table, she grabbed her bag and ran downstairs.
When Shay came downstairs, all the others where already there. "Hurry up, Shay, they need me at the salon." Santana said when she saw her youngest daughter walk into the room. Brittany never passed her driving exam, so Santana brought the kids to school, for most of the time. Alex did have a driver's license, but they only had one car, and Santana needed to drive to the beauty salon.
Shay took a seat at the table and began eating her breakfast. Her one-year-older sister Janel had already finished hers, and was staring at her nails, waiting. Alex was playing a game on his iPhone, leaving his bowl of cereals half empty. Or half full, if you want to say it like that.
"Five minutes!" Santana said impatiently. "Geez, mom, I can't eat faster!" Shay shouted. "Try harder!" Shay rolled her eyes.
"Alex, stop playing that game and finish your breakfast!" Santana yelled. Alex sighed and did what she said. Santana walked to the hallway and shouted: "Brittany! Almost ready? We're leaving!" "COMING!" Brittany yelled. Santana sighed. It was a typical morning at the Lopez-Pierce family. Santana did most of the parenting, because – no offence – Brittany isn't really the smartest person in the world. She isn't really what you call "mother-material". But Santana loved her, no matter what.
Finally, seven minutes later, everyone was ready and they took place in the big, black Toyota. The Lopez-Pierce family didn't live that far from WMHS, it was about a fifteen-minute drive.
In the back seat, Janel and Shay were gossiping about what was happening at their school. Brittany was glad to join them and Santana smiled. But then she heard something she couldn't believe. "Have your heard there's a new Glee Club co-coach?" Shay said. "Why would I know?" Janel said. "Well, her name is Rachel Puckerman. She won the Nationals when she was in Glee Club." Shay said sounding almost interested. "Who cares?" Janel said bitchy. "I do." Santana said. Janel looked surprised. "Why?" "Well, Brittany and I were in that same year, in that same Glee Club." Santana answered.
She pulled over. They had arrived at WMHS. Santana gave Brittany a kiss and hugged her goodbye. She didn't expect to get a kiss, or even a hug from her children so she just waved them goodbye. "Have a good day at school!"
On her ride to the beauty salon, Santana thought about what Shay said. Rachel is back at WMHS? Coaching the Glee Club? For some reason, Santana felt happy about the thought she could see Rachel again. Sure, they weren't the closest friends back then, but Rachel did help her at difficult times. Even at times when Santana made fun of her, she still helped her. Santana wondered how Rachel was doing.
