"What's she doing here?" Quinn is angrily pointing at Fran who is looking so confused "She isn't welcome!"
"Quinn she's your sister!" Fran sends me a small smile "Now we can talk about this"
"Talk about this? TALK ABOUT THIS?!" Quinn angrily walks toward me "My future child will not be near that...that..that bitch!"
"You're pregnant again?" Fran smiles "Can I meet her and the other one? Dad said you had one but I could never get the photo"
"That would be B~"
"Get out of here!" Quinn stalks over to Fran who takes a step back "i haven't spent time enjoying not having you or dad in my life to start watching over everything again! So where is he? Oh where's the super rich husband?"
"Rich husband?" I look away but I can still feel Frans eyes on me "You told her I left for a rich husband?"
"Everything is just now getting back on track" I look up at my two girls who both look upset "I was so used to keeping the reason hidden"
"What do you mean?" Quinn's face shifts to confusion quickly "What happened mom? Did she really leave for a husband and cause of me?"
"You told her it was because of her?!" Frans face now takes one of pure anger "Are you fucking serious?!"
"I went with what he said!" I feel the tears fall down my face "I went with what your dad wanted me to say! You wanna know the truth?! Fran came out gay and he sent her to a camp! I couldn't stop him! I was so weak"
"You know what those people did to me?" I shake my head no and Fran scoffs "Did dad ever tell you anything?"
"He said you were fine and found a husband" I fall to my knees and shake my head "I thought it was true...then I found the letters and he threatened me"
"They beat me with belts" I look up at Fran shocked not only at the words but at the numb look on her face "Every time I said I was a lesbian they beat me...funny thing is the lead preacher of the camp didn't even know! Once he found out he lead us all out of the campgrounds and called the cops...he saved all of us that night"
"I'm so sorry" I feel more tears come and fall as I start to shake "I'm so sorry!"
"Did you really not know?" I nod my head "Why didn't you leave him after the letters?"
"Because of me" I don't look up at Quinn "How many years ago was this?"
"You were beginning high school I think" Fran goes silent before speaking again" Yeah about four years"
"I had a big cheer practice that night" I nod not even knowing if I needed to "You weren't there"
"I was trying to pack" I look up at the girls finally "He had called a friend to watch the house and I didn't know"
"Why don't we take this inside?" We all look at Shelby "It's better and more private"
I nod and slowly get up. We all head inside and to the living room. Shelby walks over to Fran and holds out Beth.
"This is your niece or technically step sister?" Shelby shrugs "She's family nonetheless"
"She looks like Quinnie" Fran grabs her and smiles "I remember when she was this small"
"I'm so sorry I never fought hard enough" Fran looks up at me while bouncing Beth "I'm trying to make up for it all now...how did you end up with your dad?"
"He tracked me down" Fran looks at Beth "Said I had a niece and we'd eventually be a family again"
"We have a new family now" I look over at Quinn "Santana is my girlfriends along with Rachel who's pregnant"
"How is she pregnant?" Fran looks up at me "Did I miss something from that story?"
"Went to a party after our date" We turn our attention to Santana who's holding Rachel "Things happened and she got pregnant"
"You took a girl you like...to a party?" Santana and Quinn shake there heads and Fran sighs "God I me...Beth is my technical sister?!"
"Well we aren't married but" Shelby puts a hand on my Shoulder and I jump from not knowing she was there "We are dating!"
"What the hell did I miss?!" Fran looks around the room "What happened to Homos gets to hell?!"
"Dads gone" Quinn looks over at Fran with a watery smile "We are free"
"I'm free?" Fran looks at me "I'm really free to be me?"
"Absolutely baby" I give her a watery smile of my own "Youre free time be whatever you wanna be"
"I'm free" Fran jumps up with Beth bad spins her "IM FREE! I can finally be me!"
I chuckle as Fran gets Beth giggling. That's the girl I knew. I've missed having Fran around. I should've reached out sooner. I should've been a better mom.
"You can't focus on the past" I look up at Shelby "You Gotta focus on the future and the now"
I nod and look back in front of me. Fran is now dancing around with Beth and Quinn. Soon Rachel and Santana join into the fun. I put a hand on shelbys and smile. This is good.
"I've got some good news too" I look back up at Shelby "The trouble tones are now the only glee club at McKinley!"
"That's great!" I stand up and hug Shelby "You can focus on them now!"
"Yes and there's something else?" I pull back and look at Shelby confused "There is a Spanish teaching position opening up"
"I couldn't" Shelby pouts "Don't pout at me missy!"
"You speak Spanish" I turn to Santana with a smile and a nod. She pales quickly "Oh god"
"Oh yeah" I see the other faces besides Frans and Beths drop too "I know what you all are saying"
"Oh god" Santana looks like shes about to get sick "I'm so sorry"
"You know" The girls look at Shelby "I know Spanish too right?"
"No" Shelby nods and Santana runs "NO!"
"You broke my girlfriends!" Rachel puts a arm around Quinn "It's ok babe"
Rachel leads Quinn out of the room as we laugh. I look over at Fran and see her smiling. I haven't seen her smile in years. I missed that smile. I missed my oldest daughter.
"Quinn will come around" Fran looks up at me "She's finally coming to terms with her relationship right now on top of this"
"Yeah" Fran walks over and hands Shelby Beth "I'll go make sure they are all ok"
I nod and Fran walks Away "How did you get Beth?" I look at Shelby confused "I had her when I walked outside"
"She get out of your arms" I frown and Shelby pulls me into her "It's ok! No one got hurt"
That is something I could never be happier about.
-Fran pov-
"They know everything I said!" I hear Santana groan and flop onto a mattress "I've called you so many pet names in Spanish!"
"We know" The other girl sighs "Quinn? You still there?"
"My mom and your mom heard everything" I peek into the room and see Quinn sitting in a ball shape "please let me die"
"Nope" The brunette pulls Quinn into her "I need you around for the baby and took help with Santana"
"Hey!" Santana pouts "I'm not a hassle"
"Sure" The brunette smiles and playfully pushes Santana "And I'm not a loud mouth"
"You all just need to make a fake language" I walk into the room and they all look at me "Not something too major or long but just enough"
"That could work" The brunette smiles at me "We need to work on that soon!"
"I know these other two losers" I get grumbles and glares but I just keep looking at the brunette "What's your name?"
"Rachel" she holds her hand out to me "Rachel Berry"
"I'm so sorry" She pulls back her hand and looks at me confused "You've had such a rough time here in Lima"
"Yeah" She smiles wide "But I know where I'm going so it's just practice for the critics"
"Where are you going?" Santana and Quinn groan and Rachel's smile gets even wider "What?"
"I'm going to go to broadway and be a star!" She looks off like she's in a dream "I'm gonna make it big!"
"With a smile like that I believe it" The girls growl and I smirk as Rachel blushes "Hey! We all swing the same"
I get flipped off and walk out of the room. I shake my head with a smile. This could be could for me. This could be a real home for me.
I just hope they'll have me for longer than tonight.
