The Next Morning;

Shelby was at the table. She was drinking coffee while Rachel was eating cereal. Quinn, Santana, and Puck went out to hang with their friends. Once Rachel was done, she went to put the TV on and was watching Sofia The First. Ten minutes later, the doorbell rang. Shelby went to open the door.

"Hi! My name is Robert. But you can call me Rob. This is my daughter Mollie."

"Mollie!" Rachel screamed.

"Daddy! Can I go play with Rachel?"

"First say hi to Shelby."

"Hi Shelby!"

"Hi sweetie! You can go play with Rachel now if you want."

"yay, thankyou"

"No problem!"

Mollie then went to play with Rachel.

"Do you want coffee?" Shelby asked.

"Yes please."

"Cream and sugar?"

"Yes"

"Here"

"Thank you"

"No problem"

The adults talked for hours. It was now 5 pm.

"Well it was nice to meet you Shelby. I hope we can do this more." Rob said

"Me too."

"I was wondering if you were busy next Friday night. If you're not, do you want to go to dinner with me?"

"No I'm not and that would be lovely."

"I'll see you next Firday?"

"Sure thing!"

"Bye Shelby! Bye Rachel."

"Bye Rob! Bye Mollie."

Shelby then closed the door. Thirty minutes later, the teens were home.

"Hey Tana! Guess what!"

"What Rach!"

"Mommy has a date with Rob next Friday night!"

"She does now does she."

"Yes!"

"Mom!" Santana yelled.

"Yes Santana?"

"Is it true you have a date next Friday night?"

"Who told you?"

"A little birdy"

"Yes it's true."

"Why didn't you tell us?" Santana asks.

"I was worried what you would all say" Shelby admitted.

"Why was you worried?" Santana asks. "im happy for you, you havent been in a relationship or dated ever since dad died"

"Thanks San" Shelby says hugging Santana. "what do you think Puck and Quinn will say?"

Just as Shelby said that Puck and Quinn came down the stairs.

"What will we think about what?" Puck asked.

Shelby and Santana look at each other and there's a akward space of silence before Shelby speaks.

"I've got a date next Friday" Shelby said unsure of how Puck and Quinn will react.

Quinn smiled "that's great mom"

"Yeah, its awesome" Puck said agreeing with his sister.

"So your alright with this then?" Shelby asked and Puck and Quinn nodded.

"Mom, I think I speak for all three of us when I say that we are glad your going out with Rob" Puck says.

Shelby smiles and pulls all her three eldest children in for a hug. "thankyou guys"

….

Friday soon came around and Shelby was in her walk in closet trying to figure out what to wear while Santana, Quinn and Rachel was all sitting on her bed helping Shelby choose.

"What about this?" Shelby asked holding up a silky orange dress.

"No way!" Santana said.

"Ew, it's yucky mommy!" Rachel said pulling a face.

"Omg mom, put it way before it burns my eyes!" Quinn exclaimed dramatically.

Shelby rolled her eyes at the answers she got back and went back to her clostet until she came back out with a emerald green coloured dress.

"What about this one?" Shelby asked.

"I like it" Santana said.

"Me two" Quinn agreed with her.

"Yeah mommy, it matches the colour of your eyes!" Rachel said.

"Thanks Rach" Shelby said smiling.

"Well im going down

Shelby went in to her en-suite bathroom and got ready. Five minutes later and Shelby came out in her dress, she added a silver necklace and matching earrings and then a black waterfall cardigan.

"Mommy, you look very pretty" Rachel said

Shelby smiled at her youngest "thankyou my little star"

"Its okay mommy"

...

Santana, Quinn and Rachel all sat in the lounge watching tv and Puck went to Finn's house. The door bell went and Shelby answered it to find Rob standing there with a boquet of flowers.

"Hey Rob" Shelby says smiling.

"Hi Shelby" Rob says smiling back.

"Come in" Shelby says welcoming in.

Rob walks through the front door and him and Shelby walk through to the kitchen.

"These are for you" Rob says handing Shelby the boquet of flowers.

"Aw Rob, there lovely!" Shelby exclaims smiling looking at the boquet.

Rob smiles "I'm glad you like them"

"I love them!" Shelby exclaims.

"So, should we go now?" Rob asks.

Shelby nods "Yeah, let me just call the older girls"

"Okay" Rob smiles.

"Santana. Quinn. Could you both come in the kitchen for a minute" Shelby yells loudly.

Soon after Shelby yelled, both Santana and Quinn came in to the kitchen.

"Yeah mom?" Quinn asked.

"Right me and Rob are of now" Shelby said "Rachel needs to be in bed atleast before 9, If Brittany is coming over again then she can stay over if she wants, money is on the side for pizza if you get hungry and if you need me, ring me on my mobile"

Santana and Quinn both nodded understanding everything Shelby said.

"Thanks mom" Santana said smiling "And yes, Britt is coming over"

Shelby smiled at Santana "Ok, were going then"

"Have fun!" Santana and Quinn yelled together as Shelby and Rob both walked outside and Rob opened the passanger door of his black bmw.

...

Shelby and Rob arrived at the resturant and Rob opened the door again for Shelby.

"Thanks Rob" Shelby said smiling.

"No Problem Shelby" Rob said smiling back.

Rob and Shelby both walked in to the resturant hand in hand. They was led to a table and they both sat down.

"So what would the lady like?" Rob asked handing a menu over to Shelby.

Shelby took a look at the menu "Everything seems so nice"

Rob chuckled and looked at another menu "Yeah, I know what you mean"

Shelby and Rob smiled at eachother and smiled.

"I've been meaning to tell you something Shelby" Rob said nervously.

"whats that?" Shelby asked unsure.

"from the first moment I saw you" Rob paused for a minute "I fell in love with you"
