Hey guys! I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to get back into the hang of this story and update, and I'm so sorry that this chapter is most likely one of the shortest chapters I've ever written in my life. I'll definitely try to get a better chapter up later. Key word: try, so please don't get angry at me if I don't. I do have something in mind for the next chapter, so hopefully it'll be up soon. Anyway, enjoy!

That Saturday afternoon, Rachel and Quinn were walking to the grocery store with Judy, having just had their first doctor's appointment since they got pregnant.
When they walked in, Judy walked off to get the necessities and let Quinn and Rachel find the ingredients for their current cravings.
As both girls were looking for a particular ice cream flavour, Rachel heard two familiar voices.
"Hiram, this is not the place to talk about it." Rachel's eyes widened and she turned her head to see her fathers not too far away. Rachel grabbed Quinn by the arm and dragged her to another aisle, with Quinn protesting.
"Rachel, what are you doing? I just decided on a flavour and then you had to pull me away?" When Rachel checked what aisle they were in, she saw the sign just above their heads that said Baby Products. She sighed. Her fathers were definitely not coming in this aisle.
Rachel turned to Quinn and lowered her voice, "My dads are here."
Quinn's eyes widened in response and she also lowered her voice, "Are you serious?"
When Rachel nodded, Quinn poked her head out of the aisle to check, and when she turned back to Rachel, her eyes were even wider, if that was even possible, "What are you going to do?"
Rachel shrugged, "Well, I'm definitely not talking to them, they basically disowned me! We'll just have to wait for them to leave." Quinn sighed but agreed anyway, while looking around the aisle they were in.
"Fine, but only because I seriously need to start considering buying this stuff." As Quinn walked further down the aisle, Rachel realised what that sentence implied and sped up her walking to walk beside her.
"Wait a minute, you're keeping your baby?"
Quinn nodded, and stopped when she saw a toy bear. She held it, and bit her lip before she spoke, "After what happened with Beth, I remember thinking that if I became a pregnant teenager again –which I was pretty sure would never happen- that I wouldn't give my baby up this time. I think about her all the time. I wonder what she's doing, how she's feeling, I hate that I'll never be able to experience that with her. So I'm not going to make that same mistake this time."
Rachel nodded in understanding, "You know I get that. I always wonder what it could have been like if Shelby was there during my childhood. That doesn't mean I've made a decision yet, but I'm leaning towards keeping it." As she said that and walked further down the aisle, she noticed her fathers leaving the store and breathed a sigh of relief, but also hurt.
Is it so bad that she wanted her fathers and Shelby back in her life?

Even though this is the shortest chapter in the history of writing, it would still be awesome if you guys reviewed! Thanks so much for reading. :)
