I wasn't going to continue, but I got so many nice comments and request, I figured I should make more chapters. They won't all be as long as the first one, and probably not as short as this one. I will update more frequently though. I just wanted to get an update up for those who were waiting on it.

Thanks for all of your reviews, they definitely motivate the writing process. Keep them coming!

Ok so here is the next chapter. Hope you all like it.

It was a rainy monday afternoon in October as Quinn stood outside of her daughter's school. Her comically large rainbow umbrella standing out in a sea of small black ones. She cursed Rachel for her impulse buys.

"Quinnie, look at this umbrella! I HAVE TO GET IT" she said as they walked by a street vendor on 5th Ave

"You can't be serious...are you actually going to use it?" Quinn said in disbelief

"Absolutely!" Rachel said picking it up and examining it further.

"Ok" Was all the blond said, as she handed the man behind the table some money

She couldn't help but smile at the memory "Going to use it my ass" Quinn huffed under her breath. Rachel had left earlier that day for an audition, grabbing the small black NORMAL umbrella before heading out into the rain.

It was only a few minutes before the doors to the school opened and out poured students running to the shelter of their parent's umbrellas.

Quinn looked around to see if she could spot Beth, who was making her way towards Quinn. Finally she spotted her daughter, who looked at her with a huge smirk.

"How was school?" Quinn signed with her free hand, and the pair started walking, the umbrella sheltering both of them.

"It was boring, except when Tommy cut off Amy's ponytail during art class" Beth signed back looking up at her mom.

Quinn just looked at her daughter amused. "Sorry" she signed and then pointed up at the circus tent of an umbrella above them.

Beth only made an "R" with fingers and shook them, it was her sign Rachel, and then rolled her eyes.

Sometimes Beth was so much like Quinn that it was scary.

The pair made it home quickly.

"What are we doing today?" Beth signed after putting her bookbag down.

"Homework?" Quinn teasingly suggested.

"How about...we bake cookies" the little one signed excitedly

"Homework first, cookies second"

"Will you help me? I've got some pretty hard math problems tonight"

Quinn smiled and shook her head yes. Beth started taking her notebooks and folders out. Quinn had fallen into the parent role so easily. Her and Rachel had been living together for just a couple of months, but it seemed like they had been a family for so much longer.

After what seemed like hundreds of multiplication problems, Quinn and Beth were working on their cookies, balling the dough and placing it neatly on the baking pan. Rachel walked into the apartment to find the two girls hard at work in the kitchen, their faces had spots of baking flour on them, and they were wrist deep in sticky cookie dough.

The brunette closed the door, the sound of it getting Quinn's attention who nudged Beth to look up. The little girl was a mess, waving to Rachel with the biggest smile on her face.

"Looks like you two were busy!" Rachel spoke and signed.

Beth shook her head and went back to focusing on the cookies.

"Well, we did have our own little gay pride parade today as we walked home from school" Quinn said jokingly, but got a confused look from Rachel. "The umbrella, Quinn pointed to the corner where it was leaning up against the wall.

Rachel's eyes went wide with realization, and placed a hand over her mouth to hide the guilty smile on her face. Quinn looked at her knowingly and said. "It's okay, I still love you. You just aren't allowed to shop anymore"

"I'm sorry, I ran out so fast earlier I didn't even notice I took your umbrella" Rachel apologized as she made her way to Quinn and then kissed her quickly on the lips, trying to avoid getting flour on herself. The brunette took a look around and smiled contently.

Rachel was really glad that Quinn spent her Monday's with Beth. She wasn't sure if it would continue when Quinn's photography studio started become extremely successful, but the blond made Monday's unavailable to clients, and had her work weeks start on Tuesday. Rachel often had Monday's off, because the theater was dark on those days, and shows didn't run. It was on rare occasions like today, that she had to audition, or do a press event for a show. Monday's had become a day to do something fun, or special, or new, and it was the highlight of all three girls' week.

Monday, October 29th, or as Quinn would now call it: C-DAY. Never in all her life had she seen grown men and women fighting over children's Halloween costumes.

"This is insane" Quinn said to Rachel who was just staring at the scene of madness infront of them.

"I told you we should have done this earlier"

Beth came running up to Quinn and Rachel

"The only things left in my size are a bunny rabbit or banana" the little girl signed with a pleading look on her face "Please can we just cut holes in a sheet and I'll go as a ghost"

Quinn gave a small smile but felt bad, Beth had been talking about the Halloween parade at school where all the students show of their costumes. She didn't want to send her in a half assed costume.

"I have an idea" Rachel spoke and signed.

An hour later they were back at home, and a small woman was measuring Beth.

"Thank you so much Matilda" Rachel said to the woman who replied in a thick Russian accent.

"No problem, anything for you Ms. Berry. I will make her the best costume the fourth grade has ever seen" Matilda had been a costume designer for the Broadway hit Wicked, when Rachel was in the cast.

Quinn was trying not to laugh at the look of discomfort on Beth's face as Matilda wrapped her measuring tape around various parts of her body.

"What is she doing and why is she so small?" Beth signed, knowing that Matilda didn't understand.

Rachel signed back "She is helping you with a costume, be nice"

Quinn hid her amusement, and nodded in agreement. When Rachel wasn't looking she gave the little girl a goofy smile to help her relax.

Matilda stopped her measuring and looked at Quinn. "Okay now you"

"Excuse me?"

"I make all costumes, I already have Ms. Berry's and now I need your measurements"

It was Beth's turn to be amused, as Quinn stood with the same discomfort.

The day had been fun nonetheless and on Halloween morning, an hour before Beth had to leave for school, Matilda dropped of the three costumes that were in wardrobe bags.

Beth opened hers and her face instantly lit up. It was a beautiful gown and with it was a wand and a blonde wig. "Glinda?" she signed excitedly. The costume looked like a miniature version of the one from wicked, and Beth knew she was going to be the best good witch from the Wizard of Oz that school had ever seen.

She thanked Matilda with a hug and looked over to see What Rachel and Quinn were pulling out of their wardrobe bags.

"Matilda, is this my costume from when I played Elphaba?" Rachel asked amazed.

"Yes it is on loan, woman who plays Elphaba now has bigger butt than you, so I had to make her new one"

"Thank you, you are amazing" Rachel looked over at Quinn who held up her costume.

"Oh look, I'm going to be from the Wizard of OZ too!" Quinn faked excitement, she didn't want to seem ungrateful.

Rachel was holding back laughs, that Beth didn't think she needed to, because the little girl was almost in tears she was laughing so hard.

"Oh hunny" Rachel spoke and signed "You'll make a great Tin man"

Seeing Rachel sign that, Beth lost any control she may have had, and laughed about it the whole way to school, and then again while they went trick or treating. It was a memorable Halloween.
