Chapter 22 - Reaching out Pt 1

-Next Day-

"Morning daddy" Quentin looked up at the voice and smiled at his little girl all dressed and ready for school.

"Morning baby, I made breakfast" he grins at her as he watches her climb up the island stools, placing her backpack neatly on the next chair, he smiled at the gesture seeing so much of Rachel in the little girl.

"You know princess, you don't have to go school today if you don't want to" he said considering what took place on her birthday, finding out your teacher is actually your long lost mother, Quinn didn't want his six year old to carry stress in her tiny little body.

"I will not do such thing" Bella gasps gaping at her father and looking at him as if he just spoke a foreign language "you know how I feel about my attendance Daddy" she scolded and Quentin raised his hands up in defense.

"I'm sorry baby, I didn't know what I was thinking" Quinn said hanging his head in a fake shame.

"Me either" Isabella exclaim dramatically making Quinn chuckle. She totally was Rachel's kid "now lets talk about you coming home late last night" the small brunette scold.

"I'm sorry baby, I was with uncle Puck" Quinn finally placed a plate full of breakfast in front of Isabella. The plate contained bacon, eggs, pancakes and sausages with a glass of orange juice. She wasn't a vegan like Rachel as you can tell.

"That's not an excuse, you know I can't sleep without your goodnight kiss" pouts Bella and Quentin tried not to laugh at her pout, resemble so much of Rachel's.

'What's with me and pointing out everything that is Rachel Berry's traits?' The blonde shook his head before looking down at Bells "I know baby and I'm sorry, I promise I'll make it up to you." Quinn smiled hoping she has let him off the hook "do you forgive me?" Fluttering his eyes with a pleading look toward Isabella, who laughed at her daddy's silliness.

"Of course I do you big goof" the small brunette laughed leaning up her seat to kiss her dad's cheek when he leant toward her "you need to shave" she stated scrapping in his left cheek.

"And you need to eat your breakfast little miss know it all" he joked and Bells shrugged sitting back down.

"Just saying" she shrugged bringing a fork full in her mouth.

"Jesse? Have you seen one of my shoes?" Rachel called from inside the bedroom and a few moments later the boy appeared by the door way, a bowl in hand and a spoon in his mouth.

"Check under the bed" he mumbles through his chewing and Rachel shook her head at him before making an effort to bend down in her skirt and reached under the bed as Jesse said.

"Ah ha!" She exclaims suddenly coming up with her shoe in hand and Jesse grins at her before turning and walking away. Rachel put on her final shoe quickly, grabbing her work bag, with a scarf around her neck to protect her from the winter season she left the bedroom.

"Why are you in a hurry?" Jesse asks looking toward Rachel who was rushing about to collect all the things she needed.

"Because I'm running late and I'm going to be even late while waiting for the bus" Rachel groans, she can't believe she had overslept.

She and her fathers spent the whole of yesterday just catching up and Rachel realised how much she had missed her dads that when they announced they were leaving she got sad but with a promise to come back or meet up Rachel brightened up again.

Her fathers told her they were staying at the Fabray's for the time being before they have to leave Lima and that Rachel can always come see them but knowing how she left things she doubts Judy would welcome her to her home after breaking her son's heart.

"Well if you're running late why not just take the car?" He suggested and Rachel was in shock seeing how Jesse offered to let her use the car then again this was a whole new Jesse so she smiled.

"Thanks" she leant up on her tip toes and kissed his cheek before grabbing the keys off of the hook and with a final goodbye to Jesse she was out of the house.

•••

10 minutes later found Rachel parking her car by the side way, if she had waited for the bus then she'd probably have been a half hour late, thank god Jesse let her borrow the car again.

As the brunette was parking she obviously wasn't paying much attention she felt bumped her car with someone else. Cursing her rush, she rushes out of the car with apologies already pouring out her mouth in hopes this person doesn't sue her or yell at her.

"Oh god I'm so sorry I didn't mean to hit you omg I promise I'll pay for the damage and-" her speech cut short as she finally looked at who it was "Quinn" Rachel breathed.

Quentin was the kind of guy that if you saw you will be left breathless, what's with his amazing dirty blonde hair, shining hazel eyes, perfect cheekbone, a dashing smile most beautiful kissable lips, he was as if he was out of some fiction book, his beauty was really breathtaking. There's no a guy in this world that Rachel can say is more handsome than Quinn, there isn't at all.

"Rachel?" Snapping out her thoughts the brunette finally realised the blonde guy was talking to her "where did you go just then" he chuckles as Rachel blushes.

"I erm" clearing her throat she tried again "I'm so sorry about your car, I wasn't paying attention"

"It's fine Rachel, don't worry about, it's barely a scratch anyway"

The two stood there awkwardly gazing at each other then looking away when the other caught them staring until Rachel snapped out of it realising she has to get going.

"Umm I erm should-"

"Yeah me too, go" they spoke over each other before busting out in laughter, this time though the laugh wasn't awkward as before .

Smiling one final time Rachel turned to walk away toward the school but Quentin's voice stop her.

"Hey Rach" the brunette smiles brightly feeling her heart melt at the nickname, it never sounded better when someone else said it compared to Quinn.

Turning around to let Quinn know that she was listening, the blonde scratched at the back of his neck nervously at his next words.

"I think it's time we had that talk, 6pm tonight, our spot?" While his eyes widen when he said 'our' Rachel's smile got even bigger before Quinn still considered it as 'their' spot "I meant, at the-" He tries to reword it but Rachel cut him off with a smile which had Quinn smiling.

Rachel was beaming "Yeah, I'll be there" Rachel replies with a final nod, Quinn walked back to his car, got in and drove off as Rachel watched his car go.

The brunette sighed as the car finally got out of sight before remembering her stuff was still inside the car, so she walked back toward the vehicle to collect them before waking toward the entrance.

Although she was late, she's glad; bumping into Quinn's car must be the best things to happen. She just hopes the events turn out in her favour.

•••

"Morning Amy" the receptionist looked up and smiled kindly at her boss.

"Good morning Mr Fabray" the middle aged woman replies; she always loved Quentin, the boy. Yes boy, he might be her boss but he was almost the same age as her son, anyway Quentin has always been the kind of boss everyone wished to have. He was kind, friendly and treated his staff members with respect, he wasn't arrogant not like most young rich men. She guessed it was the way he was brought up.

"Can you call Jen in for me please" the young blonde said with kind smile before moving toward his office.

As soon as Quentin was put of sight, the woman made to call in the young assistant.

-

When Quinn walked in his office, he quickly discarded off his suit jacket and hung it on his coat rack that was inside, just as he settled down behind his desk, there was a knock "Come in" the blonde calls.

"Hey, you called?" Quentin looked up at the voice then smiled.

"Come on in" he beckons. Jen stepped in the room before shutting the door behind her and making a beeline toward Quinn.

"Hello gorgeous" Quinn purrs, taking the brunette by the waist and pulling her down on his lap before capturing her lips with his.

"What happened with all the, we're keeping our personal lives away from business?" Jen muses after pulling away.

"But I missed you" the blonde pouts making the brunette let out a laugh at his antics before pecking his lips.

"Now back to business" she smirks as Quentin groans. She got off of his lap and went around the desk and sat on the empty chair in front of Quinn. "I've booked your flight for tomorrow already, everything is all set, someone will be at the airport to collect you and bring you to your hotel".

"Then you'll meet with Mrs Danforth at 1pm and you can take it from there" the brunette instructs with a smile. "Quentin did you hear what I just said?" She asks after seeing the far way look adoring his beautiful face.

"Honestly? No I was too caught up staring at your beauty" he says with a charming smile making Jen blush furiously 'oh please no beauty compares to Rachel's' wait what? Where did that came from? Quentin thought shaking his head to rid away the thought.

"Aww aren't you just so smooth" she giggles as Quinn smirks at the tinted blush adoring her face "but seriously, you need to remember all this" she sternly said before going back to explaining once again.

•••

Rachel sighs as she looks toward her class. The children were busy colouring, while others coloured in a pure silence, some were messing about and Rachel was trying to calm them down. This was not easy.

Rachel finally calmed the kids down giving her time to finally relax and breathe easily. The brunette decided to survey the room full of 5 and 6 year olds just to make sure nothing was out of the ordinary. As her eyes continued to scan the room it landed on a small petite brunette in a corner all by herself.

'Lizzy' Rachel thought swallowing a lump as the girl's hazel eyes finally caught her brown ones then it was gone again as Isabella looked down back at her drawing.

Rachel wanted to walk over there and talk to her but she didn't know how the six year old was going to react. She hasn't spoken to the girl since her birthday party but Rachel knew she had to try.

So with everything in her Rachel marched up to where her daughter sat neatly in her seat drawing what looks like flowers and crouched down by her small desk.

"Hi" Rachel says in a small voice not sure how the little brunette was going to react her, so she decided to be cautious but Isabella barely even acknowledged her as she continues with her drawing.

"What have you got there?" Deciding to swallow down the hurt at being ignored, she tried again.

Finally, hazel eyes locked with brown and held onto the gaze and Rachel shifts under the six year old's stare. Oh god she had her hard stare, although she had Quinn's soft beautiful hazel green eyes. She had Rachel's intense stare it almost left Rachel shuddering.

Licking her dry lips, Rachel waited to see if she'll say anything, something, but nothing. "Lizzy-" the small girl glared at her.

"My name is Isabella and leave me alone" she said it with such force that Rachel was almost taken back but she decide to go along with her anyway. Because 1. They were in school and she didn't wanna go and upset the small child and 2. Quinn wouldn't be happy with her if he heard Rachel ambushed the girl although she didn't, Quentin probably wouldn't see it like it.

So having her pride hurt, Rachel instantly turned around tail between her legs and went back to attending to other kids. If she had looked back one more time at Isabella, she would have seen her look back her with a longing look.

•••

"Jesse?" Rachel calls as soon as she walked in the front door and shut it behind her "Jesse" she called again after receiving no reply.

Walking further into the small apartment, she peaked inside the living room and actually managed a little smile at the sight.

Jesse lay on the couch, asleep with one hand dangling off the couch while the other was rested on his chest as it dropped and fall with his breathing. She actually thought he looked cute.

She slowly walked where her husband laid and crouched down by his side and chuckled before pushing his brown hair back and kissing his cheek. I mean he is her husband so it wouldn't kill her to actually show him affections without looking annoyed or like someone is forcing her to.

After the small gesture, the brunette stood up and left the room to go change, prepare dinner and then she has to go meet Quinn. Just thinking about the blonde brought a bright wide smile on her lips.

As soon as Rachel was out sight, Jesse slowly cracked an eye open just to make sure she was really gone before opening both eyes and smirking knowingly before pulling out his cell from his jeans pocket and dialing a number.

After the second ring, a reply sounded from the other side and Jesse whispers so Rachel wouldn't hear him.

'Hey, yeah, its working she won't know what hit her. No one messes with me and gets away with it. Alright I'll keep you updated. Bye'

Hanging up the call with a glint in his eyes, Jesse quickly shuts his eyes when he heard footsteps approaching. Revenge is gonna be so fucking sweet.

•••
