Chapter 2
A/N: This part is gonna be random. I don't know what will happen yet, lol. There will be drama soon, but they're... stretchers, I guess ._. I don't know. I try to make them slightly entertaining at least, though.
Thank you so much for the alerts and favorites. It wasn't much, but it made me so very happy ;P
Rachel sits in her bedroom, debating on whether or not she'd check in on her new little sister. It's been almost a week since she came to live with the Berry's and they've barely made progress.
Finally, she gets up and walks towards Addie's room.
"Addie?" she knocks softly.
"Hi, Rachel," she replies, turning from her desk to face Rachel, who sits down on the bed.
"How was school?" Rachel tries to strike up conversation.
Addie hesitates. "It was fine."
"What is it?"
"Nothing."
"Hey, we're sisters now, remember? You can tell me anything," Rachel encourages.
Addie unexpectedly breaks down into sobs. Rachel stares in panic for a second before jumping up and guiding Addie to sit beside her on the bed.
Rachel hugs her awkwardly. "Hey... it's alright," she attempts, running her hands slowly up and down Addie's back.
"Come on, what is it, Sissy?" she whispers.
Addie's head snaps up. "S-Sissy...?"
"Well, you are my sister, right?" Rachel smiles softly.
Addie bites her lip in an obvious attempt to stop crying.
"You know, it's okay to cry."
She smiles weakly and shakes her head. "I'm okay. Thanks... Sissy." Her eyes gave out a stream of silent tears.
"So what is it? You wanna talk about it?" Rachel smiles.
"I guess... I guess I just miss my mom and dad. And my old friends... and my old life," Addie whispers.
Rachel raises an eyebrow. She has a feeling that wasn't all. She wasn't going to press it, though.
"It's okay to miss things. And I just want you to know that you can come to me for anything," she says.
"Thanks, Rachel."
"That's what sisters are for."
"Hey, guys," Finn says, plopping down on his lunch seat. "What'cha up to?"
Rachel looks up from her book. "Reading." Santana glares at him. Tina just smiles at him. Quinn and Sam stop mid-kiss. "Sup, Finn."
Finn rolls his eyes and tries to look subtly at Rachel.
Gorgeous as always. Maybe I should ask everyone to hang out after school.
"Hey, anyone wanna come by my house later? I don't have much homework so far and I'll be bored." That was a lie. He has tons of homework, but he gave up trying long ago. It was too hard.
"I don't have a lot, either. I can go for a few hours," Rachel says, barely looking up from her book.
Score!
"Can't. I'm getting dragged to some place by my parents," Santana mumbles.
Double score!
"Lucky. I have lots of homework," Tina sighs.
Holy crap, yes. I hope Quinn and Sam are out too.
"We can come. We were just gonna watch a movie at Quinn's house, anyway," Sam says.
Darn.
A/N: I'm so sorry that took so long. I couldn't get anything out. And sorry for the shortness. I had to end it there x_x;
