Anyway on to the chapter.

Chapter 5

Rachel woke with a start as the sound of loud knocking at her front door. Noah was asleep his arm looped around her waist. Kissing his cheek she gently moved his arm and got up pushing down her pink slip in the process.

The wooden floor was cold against her feet as she hurried down the stairs. She was a little nervous it was 4 in the morning not a time for visitors. Peaking out the peep hole her eyes widened and she pulled the door open.

"Oh my god...Kurt" she exclaimed.

The feminine boy stood at her with two suit cases and a face full of sadness.

"Kurt" Rachel asked again as she reached out to him.

The young man didn't say anything. His body raked and he burst into tears. Rachel was worried for her friend and pulled him into her arms and into her home.

"Kurt sweetie what's wrong...what's happened" she asked him as she sat him down on her couch.

Kurt wiped away his tears "Me and Blaine are over" she sobbed.

Rachel pulled in into a hug "oh Kurt I'm so sorry...would you like to talk about...I'm a really goo listener"

Kurt nodded his head against Rachel's shoulder. Her fingers stroking his hair.

"I...I told him I wanted to get married and start a family" he began wiping the fresh set of tears away from his cheeks.

"but he said the time wasn't right ...that his career was to important ….he said kids and a husband would tie him down and he couldn't have that...so I packed my bags and left him"

Rachel felt utterly angry. She'd always thought Blaine was a nice boy. She was going to have re-evaluate her opinion of him now.

"I'm so so sorry Kurt...Blaine has no idea what he's lost" she soothed her friend.

Kurt felt more tears run down his cheeks " thank you darling" he sobbed.

Rachel rubbed his back soothing.

"I have no where to go" He cried softly "I have no home ...my homes in Hollywood"

Rachel pulled away from Kurt "you will stay her with me and Noah...I wont take no for answer"

Kurt tried to smiled "OK ...I'd of went to Finn's but he doesn't have much room with Jack running around now"

Rachel looked at Kurt confused "Jack?"

Kurt nodded "yes..Jack his little boy" watching the shock appear on Rachel's face.

"Oh god you didn't know...did you" he shrieked.

Rachel shook her head and leaned back into the couch "how old is he?"

Kurt was worried about how Rachel would take this piece of information. It would no doubt open a can of worms.

"He's four" he told her hesitantly.

Rachel felt her blood run cold " four...his child is 4...that means he slept with another women while we were still together"

Kurt shook his head and looked down at his hands .

Rachel was so made at the fact that he Finn had a child she was made at the fact that while he had proclaimed his love to her he had slept with another women. It was in the past she knew that very well. She was happy she had her daughters and Noah but she couldn't deny the sting she felt at the revaluation of Finn's infidelity.

…...

"That is unfucking believable" Noah growled as he listened to Rachel and Kurt tell him about Finn's son and the fact he'd cheated on Rachel and the time of he was conceived.

"It certainly is Rachel" replied angrily as she paced in front of the boys in her kitchen a cup of tea in her hand.

"I always new he was a cheating fucker" her husband added

Kurt nodded his head " I think we all established that back in high school"

The boys watched as Rachel stopped pacing and turning to Kurt with a questioning look "Who is..who is the mother of his child"

Kurt cleared his throat nervously and mumbled "April Rhodes"

"your fucking shitting me!" Puck snorted angrily as Rachel looked for gr voice.

"that douchebag cheats on Rachel with Fucking April fucking alcoholic Rhodes"

Rachel finally found her voice " Noah I need you to know I love you so very very much...but I can't help but feel hurt by Finn"

Noah nodded at got to his feet pulling her into a tight hug "It's OK baby...you have every right to be"

Rachel smiled up at her husband and kissed him soundlessly "thank you"

Turning to Kurt she squeezed his shoulder. " lets forget Finn for now...tonight were going out with the girls and we're to cheer up...Hollywood style.

…...

The music was loud as Rachel Kurt Santana, Mike, Quinn and Brittany danced around and talked.

They'd eventually sat around a table sipping on drinks as Rachel told them about Finn's son. They were all in shock none of them had heard from Finn since the day him and Rachel were supposed to get married and Kurt had told them the details of his break up with Blaine.

"whoa..this nights full of surprises" Mercedes joked a little tipsy. Every just rolled their eyes at her

"yeah one cheater with a kid and a gay explosion" Santana laughed.

Turning to Kurt she gave him a seriously "Beyonce ….Blaine's a shit for letting you go. But look at Rachel.. she proved that the person your with isn't always who your meant to with. I mean the girl thought Finn was her future and looked her now Married to fucking Puck with 2 kids...girl got her shit right"

Kurt giggled a little " as always San...you astound me with your words of wisdom"

Santana chuckled at and pointed her glass at him before taking a gulp.

"San's right you know" Brittany spoke up innocently "I always new Puck was Rachel's lobster"

Every looked at her with a mixture humour and confusion. But Rachel being Rachel decided to Push her comment.

"how long have you thought this Brittany she" she asked.

She watched at the blonde girl thought for a moment her index finger rubbing her chin.

"the day I saw Puck take the Glist of off your locker "

"Tell me about that day Brittany...tell exactly what you saw" Rachel told them blondes.

The others leaned into listen " well..."

Flashback

" I miss lady kisses already" Brittany pointed as she and Santana slipped out from the janitors closest.

Santana squeezed her hand "don't worry cute little self B , I gots more lady kisses saved for you"

Brittany giggle and twiddled her finger around her hair as she her secret lady love went in different directions to class.

The cookie Blonde cheer leader turned around the corner in team to see Puck hovering around Rachel's locker he fist's clenched at his sides.

Hiding out of sit she heard and saw but hiss " fuckers!" and ripped something from Rachel's locker before dumping in the bin next to the choir.

Once he left the corridor Brittany headed for the bin and picked out the white piece of paper he dumped in the trash can.

Opening the scrunched paper up her lips turned into a smiled it was the Glist. Rachel's name was at the very bottom. The cheerleader may not be the brightness crayon in the box but she knew then in the moment Puck cared about Rachel. He knew if she saw the Glist she'd be hurt...he'd took it off of her locker to protector"

pushing paper into her bag she skipped of down the corridor singing "Puck and Rachel up a tree..."

end of flashback

Everyone was shocked by Brittany's story and turned to look at Rachel who had the biggest smile on her face.

"I'm so glad I chose Noah" she sighed.

…...

Rachel got home that night to find her husband fast asleep in the girls room fast asleep in the rocking chair with Ava in his arms.

Lifting the 4 month old baby up she carried her across the room and placed his in her pick crib with Ava written in in gold fancy letting out the outside of the footrest.

Once the baby was settled she lent into Caroline's crib and kissed her cheek before going back to Puck and sitting in his lap her arms looping around his neck.

"baby" Puck rasped when he felt her lips against his . He wrapped his arms around her waist holding her in place.

"I love you so much Noah" Rachel whispered as she kissed him again" her hands gripping his wife beater.

"you took the Glist of my locker in high school" she added randomly.

Puck raised an eyebrow "how'd you find out about that?" he asked shyly.

Rachel chuckled and kissed his cheek "Brittany...she saw"

Puck laughed and traced his fingers over Rachel's arms "I did" he nodded.

Rachel smiled "I'm so glad I chose you...it was all you all of high school you protected"

Puck tugged her closer to him and brought his lips to her ear " and I'd do it all over again"

...

Rachel found herself at Finn's apartment the next day.

As much as he loved Noah and her kids she felt she had to confront Finn about infidelity.

Reaching after a deep breath she knocked door.

She heard the sound of feet banging on the inside and then door opened to reveal Finn

"we need to talk Finn...about you son"
