hey guys this is chapter 2 please remember you can help me pick the title to this story and any references remember to tell me and you can pick what you want me too put in the story

Rachel went though all of her daily classes and now was glee they were doing some show tunes and she sang some rent songs and that's when it hit her without you reminds Rachel of what happened with her and Shelby without you things are happening and shes missing out on all of it. And that's when it really hit her she remembers that Shelby sang her a song and gave her a CD so Rachel can do the same thing only sing Without You because its so perfect shes missing everything and she wants her to realize that its a duet so she will have Finn sing it. she explained everything to Finn and he agreed it was such a good idea and then she can know how much this is hurting Rachel. They went over to Rachel's house to record it for she has some recording equipment at her house and a piano and a drum set for Finn because she knows how much he loves to play. so they got started and after about three or four tries they finally got it right it took a good four or five hours but Finn nor Rachel minded because they loved spending time together. By the end of the song Rachel was crying as she did when she finished listening to I Dreamed a Dreamed. She put that song on her pod and often it made her cry herself to sleep. Her dads never knew this about Rachel and she didn't plan on telling them because she didn't want to make them feel bad and make them feel like they weren't good enough because Rachel loved them they gave her all she could ask for took her on trips to NYC bought her dance singing and even acting lessons and best of all what Shelby never did supported her in what ever she wanted to do. Truth be told both men hoped when Shelby answered the add in the newspaper they both hoped she could sing and had acting and dancing ability because they wanted to spoil Rachel to the fullest in the arts. But when they heard Shelby sing they were amazed they were hoping for at least an OK voice but they were given a true gift because Rachel was 10 times better than Shelby. Rachel planed everything perfect Shelby left her house at in the morning at seven am but she couldn't drop it off that early because she didn't want her dads wondering where she went especially because it was early and they would get suspicious. So after school was her best bet because she was always with vocal adrenaline until 10 at night so she would make her trip then.

For Shelby the day was passing by very slow and her thoughts were often about the same things Rachel and vocal adrenaline but mostly Rachel wondering how on earth they would meet again in the world if Rachel didn't want to try again then she would just back off and realize she made a big mistake. That day December 18, 1994 was the best day of the Berry men's life but the worst for Shelby because she had to give up her baby that she longed for. she begged to get to hold her but she was denied that they gave her an envelope with a check for 50,000 in it, enough for living. she auditioned for everything Rent,lion King,Les Mis,Spring awakening,and the biggest disappointment wicked she longed for a role in it but didn't even gain an ensemble part. so she packed up her things after collage at NYU and came to Carmel with a teaching degree and vocal skills she was hired as an English teacher and vocal Adrenalin coach. After winning her first national title she felt that success she loaned for she one day hoped her fathers would enroll Rachel in Carmel because of there amazing music program best in the eastern part of the county but that day never came instead she went to McKinley the underdog school and sports centralized school that has only had a stable glee club for one looked at the clock and didn't realize that the day was almost over still without a plan she decided to go to vocal Adrenalin.

The last bell finally rung at school and Rachel rushed to the front doors so she could get to her car and drive over to Shelby's. she knew exactly where to go because when Shelby had her Lady Gaga outfit they went to Shelby's.
It was about a 15 minute drive from Lima she turned on some music and before she knew it she was there. she parked about a block away because just in case someone was there or Shelby came home her car wasn't there she she walked the rest of the way and saw one big huge problem . Jesse was there, crap it was spring break she thought "what am i going to do now he must be visiting from LA" and she really didn't want to see him so she decided she would come back she shouldn't be here for more than a few hours. She went to find some dinner in Carmel she found a nice dinner with some vegan options and ate then went to see if he was gone and with her luck he was so she went up to the mailbox and went though her bag found the CD kissed it and placed it in her mailbox. Then ran back to her car because Shelby would be back soon. As she was driving home she though that her dads are going to wonder where she was so she grabs Finn on the way home so it could look like they were together she walked in her house and said "hey dad,daddy Finn and i went out on a date sorry I didn't call I'm just going to take him home now. "OK Rach, hi Finn" her dads really liked Finn and trusted him. Thanks Finn i will see you tomorrow "I love you so much Rach" I love you too Finn. she drove home took a hot shower and went to bed wondering what was going to happen with her and her mother.
