"smile, breathe and go slowly"

- - Rachel - -

She's "sick". Really, she is, but not sick as throwing up or anything. In all honesty, she's skipping school for fairly good reasons.

- She's pretty sure Sam's the father of her unborn child, and she's unsure if he realizes who she is.
- Sunshine is sort-of stalking her, and trying to find ways to make people hate her.
- Jacob has always stalked her, and he's been trying to get some 'interviews'

So, yes- she's skipping school. Having Noah pick up her homework, and having Kurt and Santana and Brittany update her about glee. She honestly feels weak, and she feels stupid for acting like this.

She's hiding.

and she's sick of being scared, weak, and stupid. She's sick of hiding, of being afraid of what people are going to say. She's tired of it all, but she can't help but just- feel helpless. She feels alone, even if she's in a crowded room.

She just feels so, alone.

She knows Noah is here, so is Kurt Santana and Brittany. Mr. Shue, Gabriella, are both parent-figures in her life now. She knows there here for her. She honestly understands they want to help, but she also feels like they pity her.

She wishes she didn't feel like this, she wishes she could just forget and re-live this summer.

But she can't.

"My cat told me, you just need to smile, breathe and just go slowly." Brittany said, "He said, if things are tough- just smile and breathe."

This is why she loves Brittany, Brittany can make her smile and honestly the girl is so adorable, it's almost too much.

"Why would your cat say that?"

"I don't know, I was telling him about you've been acting- and he thinks you're thinking too much. He says how you're over thinking, and that you should just smile and stop over thinking"

She doesn't know what it is, she just starts sobbing and cries on Brittany's shoulder.

"Rae, it's okay. We're here for you, you don't have to be alone"

.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.

- - Noah - -

He wakes up to hear Rachel in the bathroom, he groans and walks over to the bathroom.

"Rach?"

he hears a feint 'mhmm' in response, He closes his eyes score entering the bathroom.
"Noah I'm not naked, you can open your eyes."

He does so, and sees she's staring at herself in the mirror. Her line of eye sight is more aimed at her stomach.
"What's going on in that head of yours?"

She smiles, but it's more of a ghost of her smile. "I'm just thinking, Britt came over today. She was telling me to smile, breathe and go slowly."

"Brittany is some kind-of amazing"

"she told me, I'm over thinking and that I have friends- and I shouldn't be acting like this."

Noah wrapped his arms around her neck, and locked them in place; kissing the top of her head.

"smile, breathe and go slowly"

.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.

- - Rachel- -

she's going back to school today, ever since she talked to Brittany she's been feeling better about this.

That is, til she's bombed with questions.

"is it true that you're pregnant?"
"Are you or are you not in love with puckerman?"

"is it true that the new kid, Sam is your baby's daddy?"

she froze, and quickly turned to Jacob "what did you say?"

"Is it true that the new kid, Sam Evans is your baby's daddy?"

Everything stood still for her, she had wide eyes and it was like she was glued to the floor, she couldn't move and everyone was staring at her.

A/N: Well there ya have it(: a short kinda filler chapter! (:

I want Brittany to turn up as the type of person, who isn't dumb and just likes seeing people happy! (:

I really don't like, Jacob or Sunshine. (its weird); I love Karofsky(?) & Azimio, i don't know why i just do!

Hopefully the next chapter is longer, and out soon! (:

the review button is waiting to be hit on ;)
