Blaine, Kurt, Rachel and Jesse were all squished into Dr. Anne's office attending yet another appointment. "So there's just one more step until we can go ahead with the pregnancy," explained the doctor. "We'll give Rachel the medicines used to prepare her for the pregnancy without actually impregnating her. That way we can see how she reacts to them and we won't have to worry about it going wrong when we do it for real. I'll show you how to use the needle Rachel. If you want the rest of you can learn as well." The group nodded in respone.

"Okay, you're going to need to have a needle every evening. You can either give it to yourself or someone else can. You'll need to come in for a brief checkup every few days."

The doctor rummaged through her desk draw and pulled out a needle; its point was about an inch long. This drew a rather comical response from the group. Kurt's eyes widened dramatically, Blaine grew considerably paler and Rachel looked like she was about to vomit. Only Jesse remained calm. "Come on baby," he murmered in Rachel's ear. "It'll all be fine. I can do the shot for you if you want." She nodded feebly but a small moan of fear escaped her lips.

"It's quite simple," continued Dr. Anne. "All you do is insert it in your stomach, press the button and hold it there for ten seconds. Make sure you measure out exactly the right amount of medicine. Is that good Rachel?"

Rachel looked absolutely petrified. Her hands were clenched tightly around the seat's armrests causing her knuckles to turn white and her knee was bouncing up and down with a hyper, frantic, nervous energy. She looked like she was contemplating running out of the room when Jesse slipped his arm around her shoulder and kissed her cheek.

"Just perfect," she gulped.

It was six o'clock when Blaine's cell phone started to buzz. Kurt sighed in exasperation and paused the movie he and Blaine had been watching while curling up together on the couch. "How much are you willing to bet that's Rachel who has decided to kindly interupt us yet again? Does that girl have no regard for anyone's schedule besides her own."

Blaine couldn't help but silently agree as he picked up the phone. He was about to snap at Rachel when he picked up on the sound of sobs. "Are you okay?" Blaine had no idea what to do or how to react.

Kurt picked up on the concern in his husband's voice and snatched the phone, putting it onto speaker. "Rach? What's going on?" Any anger Kurt had felt vanished at the sound of his best friend crying. As annoying as Rachel could be both Blaine and Kurt cared about her deeply.

"I can't do it,"Rachel was absolutley hysterical and her voice came out broken and ragged.

"Shhh," Blaine soothed into the phone. "Take a deep breath and then tell us what's going on. I'm sure we can figure it out." Both men waited patiently as Rachel could be heard take numerous deep, shaky breaths.

After some time Rachel quietly admitted, "It's the needle. I can't give myself the needle."

The couple's reactions were complete opposites. Blaine began to howl with laughter whilst Kurt began to shout into the phone, "Rachel Berry do you want me to have a heartattack? You call us up out of the blue sobbing like a baby and barely breathing over a needle? I thought someone was murdering you. I thought you were hurt, or mugged, or- or worse." Rachel began to cry again this time even harder.

Blaine quickly took the phone from his husband and glared at him, "What Kurt is trying to say is we're relieved you're safe. We were just frightened for you. Isn't that right Kurt?" Blaine sent his husband a pointed look and the anger drained from his face as he apologized to the girl. "Where's Jesse? He can give you the needle." Blaine wasn't quite sure why Rachel had reacted like this but he felt bad. The only reason she was doing this was for them and their unborn child.

"He had to go to Los Angeles to shoot a scene for a movie. I'm home alone and I don't know what to do." Rachel sniffed. "Can you come over and do it for me?"

Blaine groaned, "You want us to drive through New York at rush hour to give you a needle?"

"It is for your child," Rachel tried hopefully in an attempt to convince them.

"Fine," Kurt gave in. "We'll be there soon."

"Right," Kurt glanced around Rachel's living room. "Do you want me to do this or should Blaine?"

"Blaine please," muttered Rachel. "I want you to hold my hand." Kurt leant Rachel back in the seat and held both her hands. Blaine prepared the needle and pulled Rachel's shirt up off ber stomach to administer it. He lowered the needle to her stomach and Rachel let out a shriek and curled up in a ball. Blaine stepped back and stared at her dumbfounded. He looked to Kurt for guidance but the man appeared equally clueless.

"Come on Rachel, I know you can do this. I promise I won't hurt you; you'll only feel a quick pinch." Rachel had started crying again and her head was placed between her knees.

"I hate needles. They're one of my biggest fears besides spiders and tripping over on stage. Why did I agree to do this?"

"Rachel look at me," Kurt demanded softly but firmly. Rachel looked up at him through her woeful, tear filled eyes. "You chose to do this so we could have a child. You're not doing this for yourself; your doing it so that you can bring a beautiful life into this world so we can love and cherish it. Nobody is forcing you to do this. If you want to you can still change your mind; nobody would be upset with you if you did. But if you still want to do this than don't think about the needle, think about why you're having the needle." Rachel kissed Kurt on the cheek and unfurled herself.

"Be careful," she begged Blaine. Rachel shut her eyes and squeezed Kurt's hands so tightly he wondered if she could break them. Blaine inserted the needle in her flesh and Rachel winced but remained still. He withdrew it and grinned at her.

"See that wasn't so bad," he chuckled.

"I hate you both," Rachel admonished them.

"Just wait until you're in labour!" Kurt exclaimed mischeivously. As she sank back in the chair Rachel released a deep groan.
