-Chapter 17-Thanksgiving part 2-
-Rachel pov-
Everything is so tense right now in the room. I look between everyone and see the looks. So I really need to know who all is here. So let's just do a quick run down.
Our house family:
Santana
Brittany
Mom
Judy
Maribel
Beth
Quinn
Me
The others of our family:
Frannie Fabray
Alma Lopez
Daniel Lopez
Some Blonde lady
Some old guy
"Oh it is my granddaughter!" The blonde lady runs over and hugs me "You look exactly like your mother! Gosh I need to show you the photos we have of her at your age dear!"
"Let the girl breath Suzy" The old guy walks over with a smile "Nice to meet my granddaughter though"
"One of them" Mom walks over with Beth "This is your other one"
"How adorable!" Suzy grabs Beth and starts tickling her "She looks so cute!"
"Daniel you have a restraining order" Oh fuck I forgot that part "You need to leave now"
"He will after he gives something to you" Alma elbows him and Daniel pulls out a ring "I believe this is yours dear"
"The engagement ring?" She nods and Maribel slowly takes it "Why am I getting it?"
"Cause my son was a little asshole" Alma points to the door "Leave! You hurt your poor daughter and this lovely girl! Now go!"
"Russel was always right" Daniel points at us "Women are the worst!"
"Get your ass out of here boy!" My grandpa takes a step toward Daniel "I may be old but I could still beat your ass into the next century"
"I would help him" Alma points to the door "Go to the family of people who do nothing but hurt and use each other! I am spending my thanksgiving with a true loving family if they let me!"
"Always Alma" Maribel stands tall and faces Daniel "Get the hell out of my house"
"Would not want to catch the gay anyways" There is a pop and crack as Daniel hits the floor "Ow fuck! I think you broke my jaw!"
"Talk shit about my family one more time and I will break more than that" Frannie is standing over a fear open eyes Daniel "You step near them again I will rip you limb from limb! One hair touched on their head wrong and I slowly let you get torn apart by the pigs I own! Do we have an understanding?"
"Ye-yes!" He scrambles up and for the door "She is a psychopath!"
"Best remember bitch!" When he is gone Frannie turns toward us "Now I came to hear my future sister in law sing and like hell I am missing that! I know you have don't rain on my parade on repeat! Give me what I want!"
"Fran that is rude!" Lucy shakes her head "Rachel you do not have to perform if you do not wish to"
"Well I mean I have a song I can sing" I smile as Frannie claps "What does it hurt? I mean I love an audience"

[RACHEL]
Don't tell me not to live, just sit and putter
Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade
Don't tell me not to fly, I've simply got to
If someone takes a spill, it's me and not you
Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade
I'll march my band out
I'll beat my drum
And if I'm fanned out
Your turn at bat, sir
At least I didn't fake it, hat sir
I guess I didn't make it
But whether I'm the rose of sheer perfection
A freckle on the nose of life's complexion
The cinder or the shiny apple of its eye
I've gotta fly once
I've gotta try once
Only can die once, right sir
Oooh, life is juicy, juicy and you see I've gotta have my bite, sir
Get ready for me love 'cause I'm a comer
I've simply gotta march, my hearts a drummer
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade
I'm gonna live and live now
Get what I want, I know how
One roll for the whole shebang
One throw that bell will go clang
Eye on the target and wham
One shot, one gunshot and bam!
Hey Mr. Arnstein, here I am
I'll march my band out
I'll beat my drum
And if I'm fanned out
Your turn at bat, sir
At least I didn't fake it, hat sir
Guess I didn't make it
Get ready for me love 'cause I'm a comer
I've simply gotta march, my hearts a drummer
No, nobody, no, nobody is gonna
Rain on my parade
"I must say this has been an interesting thanksgiving" My grandma smiles while holding hands with my grandpa "I think I will enjoy being around this family more"
We all smile and start into the games we have out. Everything goes well as we have fun. We talk about our lives and share great stories. We eat like a big family and I love it so much.
It feels nice to have a family like this finally. I can only hope we do something like this for Christmas. I want that more than anything else. I am enjoying the feeling of love so much.
I can not wait for what comes next!
