-Chapter 91-
-Rachel pov-
It's been a week since our acceptance letters and everything has finally settled down. We've spent more time being little and it's been great! But I can tell everyone is watching Brittany and me. I know what they are thinking but it's not real.
They think Brittany and I are falling apart. They've all got this idea that I'm pushing her away or vice versa. We both don't understand why though...Ok I guess I do a little. We do tend to be the first ones to fight each other. It's just that I don't wanna step on her spotlight and it makes her mad.
I know it sounds egotistical but I really don't mean to. I just wanna see her be happy and not just pushing me forward like she's trying to do. She was gonna pretend she couldn't perform after my breakdown in glee when I figured out I didn't have a main part.
I told her not to and she lost it! She said I deserved it and she didn't. I told her she was more than ready for any performance and she wasn't happy. We didn't talk for a few days after that. Now I'm sitting across from her in the meeting room alone.
"So they really are doing this huh?" I nod and Brittany sighs "I just wanna play!"
"I know B" I get up and sit beside her "You miss Babs don't you?"
Brittany nods "I got her for you but she grew on me too" Brittany sniffles and I see a tear fall down "I hated getting rid of her and then the letter from my mom came some time after...I just haven't been ok"
"Have you talked with anyone else about this yet?" She shakes her head no and I pull her close to me "It'll be ok B"
She turns herself into and starts sobbing into my shoulder. I rub a circle on her back as she lets it all out. This has been building up for too long. I hear her sobbing start to slow down and her breath evening out. I pull back some and see she's asleep. I smile and pull her back into me.
Someone will get eventually. I yawn and close my eyes holding onto Brittany. It feels nice doing this again on fully good terms.
-Shelby pov-
"Alright" I clap and look at Santana "If you don't poop soon you're taking laxatives one way or the other"
Her eyes go wide and she drops the toy she had. I sigh cause I ate being this way. I'm always the one who has to be strict! I never get to be the fun parent! I always have to do the medication and all of that. Just one day I want them to do what I do.
I look down and see Santana's whole face red. I frown knowing whats going to have to be done. She doesn't like the liquid stuff and that only leaves suppository. I go to the medicine cabinet and pull out the bottle. I look at it and notice its empty.
"GOD DAMNIT!" I throw the bottle away and pick up Santana "I'm sorry but you'll have to drink laxative"
Soon I'm getting kicked and scratched as I carry her. I have the liquid in my office cause of temp. I carry her in and sit her on the mat. I get out the liquid miralax and the small glass. I pull out a water bottle and pour it into the glass.
"This is all your other moms fault" I put the laxative in and start mixing it "Instead of getting what I told them they got what THEY wanted!"
I walk over to her and start to give it to her. That's when she pushes it away and it lands on me. I growl and look at the water that has soaked my shirt now. I look up at Santana and see her eyes wide.
"Hey She~" I turn and glare at Judy "What?"
I angrily walk toward her "You didn't but the suppository so I poured miralax!" I motion to the big wet spot on my shirt "THIS IS WHAT YOU CAUSED!"
"Hey I'm not the only one that went to the store!" I growl again and she shrinks back "Alright so maybe Madison and I got a little distracted"
"No more!" Judy looks at me confused and I stop right in front of her "I get to be a fun mom while you all give them the medicine, set up schedules, and get them changed while I spend time getting myself dolled up for people WHILE ENGAGED!"
Judys sputtering for a response when I walk out. I really need to get out of the room before I said anything worse. But something makes me feel worse. I feel like I've forgotten something.
-time skip-Rcahel pov-
I wake up and stretch out some. My back and neck hurts from the hairs surface. I stand up and smile at Brittany asleep in the chair beside me. That's when I realize we are still in the room.
I get up and walk to the door. I pull on the handle but it doesn't budge. They locked us in here! I start feeling my chest getting tight and I curl into a ball. They locked us into the meeting room! They forgot about us!
"Rach?" I look up and see a worried Brittany above me "What?"
"T-they locked us in" I shakily point to the door "W-we can't get out"
Brittany tries and then pound on the door after. Soon she slides down onto her knees shaking. I make my way to her and wrap my arms around her. We are in this together. Because obviously we have been forgotten.
-Shelby pov-
I look around the club and then notice Lucy with Tina looking around the room. I look around again and see the girls all looking around the room. What are they...RACHEL AND BRITTANY!
"SHIT!" I run off the stage and run to the meeting room "I'm coming girls!"
I reach the door and push on the handle. It's locked! Who the hell locked it?!...MADISON! I growl and run to the principals office. When I get inside I see them trying to work on the schedule. Papers are everywhere!
"WHAT THE FUCK?!" They jump and look at me "Where's Emma and Maribel?"
"Emma's office playing" Judy sighs and lays her papers down "We can't do what you do"
"Yes you can" I walk to the desk and grab Madison's key ring "But most important thing is to get Rachel and Brittany out of the locked office!"
Their eyes go wide and we all sprint to the meeting room. I get to the door and put the keys in it. I unlock the door and open it. My heart breaks seeing the girls laying on the ground. They look so broken.
"Oh god" Madison walks in and touches their shoulders "Girls?"
"You finally remembered huh?" I see the glare and anger on Brittanys face "She wore herself out crying"
"We just got caught up in our own stuff" Judy walks in more "We didn't mean to do this"
"I'm sure you didn't" Brittanys struggles to stand with Rachel but she does "Why don't we just get to glee?"
"You need your chair Brittany" She rolls her eyes and takes a step "Brittany please"
"Leave me alone!" She takes another step and starts to collapse "I'm fine"
"Brittany listen Damnit!" We all look at Judy shocked "You'll get in the fucking chair and give us Rachel! Then we are canceling glee and going home! We fucked to today and we are already destroying ourselves! So sit in the damn chair and lets go!"
Brittany nods and gives Rachel over to me. Madison wheels the chair over and Brittany sits down in it. Judy walk to the front desk and makes the glee announcement. She comes over and starts pushing Brittany out the door. I hold Rachel up fully and carry her out to the car. This could be fun.
-Time skip-
"Alright" I look at Judy who's finally breaking the living room silence "Shelby I am sorry we have put all of the issues on top of you"
"Thank you" I give her a smile that she returns and then I look at Rachel "Are you doing better sweetie?"
"You left us" She looks down at the ground and sniffles "You forgot about us"
"I won't lie and say we didn't" I feel Brittanys glare as Rachel's starts to cry "But it was cause I was angry at momma and Mami then I turned a blind eye to the feeling I was forgetting something"
"We all messed up" I look at Maribel confused "Emma and I knew what you three had done but we didn't remind you to get them out...we got so invested in our own space that I didn't even go to the cafeteria"
"You all made mistakes" Rachel sighs and looks at us with red puffy eyes "Can I just sleep on this?"
"I'll get you up for dinner" She looks disbelievingly at me but still just nods and walks away "Rach"
"Just let her go" I look at Brittany who looks upset "You hurt us today"
"I know" I look down at the ground upset at myself "I know"
After a few hours I called Rachel down for dinner. It was a quiet evening for the house. It sucks that it was because of me. I walk into the bedroom and sit on the bed. I grab our family photo and run my hand over it. A tear slides down my cheek as I lay down looking at it.
"How could I have been so stupid to forget my own kid?" I hold the picture to my chest and start to cry "I'm such a bad mom"
I hope tomorrow I can make this right.
