Rachel's POV

Waking up in Quinn's arms was something that I was sure she would never tire of. Even just laying contently in her arms while she slept was so calming that I'd simply been lying here for over two hours. And as much as I wanted to, I knew I shouldn't stay there all day. Two hours was already too much time to not have been productive.

I carefully removed myself from Quinn's grasp, making sure not to wake her. The kids would be hungry when they woke up, and Quinn would surely be too. I decided to make a big breakfast for them.

I made my way to the kitchen after peeking into Zachariah and Josephine's rooms to find that they were both still asleep.

"I've been awake for a while now," I sang as I pulled out the eggs from the refrigerator (I couldn't very well expect my kids to eat a vegan diet. As much as I wished they would, they can be very picky and I'd rather let them make their own choice when the time comes.)

"You've got me feeling like a child now." It's funny how fitting this is right now.

"Cause every time I see your bubbly face, I get the tingles in a silly place."

Quinn's POV

I woke up as Rachel tried to remove herself from my arms. I almost tried to keep her there with me, but then it's never been about me before, why start now? I let her think I was still asleep, and I figured I could just keep my eyes closed and I'd fall back asleep.

No such luck.

Resigned to the fact that I was up for the day no matter how much I wanted to sleep a little longer, I dragged myself out of bed and put on some sweatpants and a tee shirt.

"They start in my toes, make me crinkle my nose," I heard Rachel sing as I went downstairs.

She was swaying in the kitchen, and she looked to be flipping pancakes.

"Wherever it goes, I always know," she sang as I watched in awe.

Rachel always had a way of commanding attention when she sang, even when she didn't mean to. Her voice was just that powerful.

"That you make me smile. Please stay for a while, now just take your time wherever you go," she sang.

I made my way towards her.

"But what am I gonna say," I sang along with Rachel as I wrapped my arms around her from behind.

Rachel's POV

I jumped when I felt a pair of arms around me, but relaxed when I realized it was Quinn. Of course, I'm not quite sure who else it would have been.

"When you make me feel this way," we sang together.

It had been so long since we'd sung together, especially just the two of us. In fact, I'm pretty sure the only time we'd really done so was that time when I was considering getting a nose job.

I frowned at that. That was so long ago. We should definitely do this more often.

Quinn turned me around to face her as I put the last pancake on the pile.

"It starts in my soul and I lose all control," we sang.

When you kiss my nose," I sang as Quinn actually kissed my nose. "The feeling shows." I blushed and swooned at the gesture.

For a brief moment I wondered what my life would be like if I had married Quinn instead of Finn, but then I didn't linger on that idea because I couldn't imagine my life without Zachariah and Josephine.

"Wherever you go, I always know. 'Cause you make me smile even just for while."

I let my head rest on Quinn's shoulder, we were still swaying together, even though the song was over.

"What's got you in such a good mood this morning?" Quinn asked. "Not that I'm complaining. It's been so long since I've heard you sing."

I furrowed my brow. What did she mean by that?

"I was singing last night," I said.

Quinn chuckled. "Yes and that was so very long ago."

I smiled into her chest.

"But what I meant was, it's been so long since I've heard you sing for any other reason than to sing to the kids," Quinn said.

I frowned. That couldn't be true could it? I racked my brain trying to think of something I'd sung just for the hell of it. My frown deepened when I found that I couldn't think of anything.

"I…" I didn't even know what to say. How had I just stopped singing? "I didn't even realize I'd stopped."

Quinn's POV

I frowned. I didn't mean to upset Rachel.

"It's okay," I said. I searched my brain for the right thing to say. I hoped this was it. "I think you just found something that's more important to you than singing."

Rachel looked at me funny. Like she couldn't fathom that.

"I don't think it means you love singing any less than you did before," I said. "I think it just means that you love your kids more."

Rachel's face smoothed out and she smiled at me. Her eyes twinkled and, as she's done so many times before, she took my breath away.

"I don't think it's possible for you to be any more perfect," Rachel said.

I looked away. "I'm not perfect, Rach," I said. Not by a long shot.

"Well you're perfect to me," Rachel said. "Like you and I were meant to be."

I blushed. "So," I said, changing the subject. "You made breakfast?"

"Oh yes," Rachel said. "I felt like you and the kids might like a big breakfast today. It's been an intense few weeks since the reunion and with the divorce. I made pancakes and scrambled eggs and bacon. I know how much you and Josephine love bacon."

"Rach," I said. "You didn't have to do that. Jojo and Zach have the best mom in the world, even if Finn hasn't been around, they have you. And I am just so blessed to be with you and to have the chance to be in your life and in their lives."

Rachel rolled her eyes. "I never realized before," she said, "how self-sacrificial you are. You don't have to be. You deserve to have the world too."

"I do," I said. "You are my world, Rach. You and the kids are everything to me."

"Well if you hadn't fallen in love with me," Rachel said. "Everything else the same, what city would you be in right now?"

"If I hadn't fallen in love with you, there's no guarantee that I would have left Lima. I most definitely wouldn't have gone to Yale."

"Humor me," Rachel said.

"I don't know Rach," I said. "I'd probably either be in New York, Los Angeles or Boston."

"I want you to accept one of your job offers. You deserve to make it out of Ohio," Rachel said.

"No," I said. I refused to leave Rachel behind. Especially now that I finally had her. "I won't leave you."

"Then I'll come with you."
