"Thank you so much for helping us." Finn said to Ms Pillsbury as he held Rachel's hand. "Me and Rachel were starting to get worried."
"I'm here to help." Ms Pillsbury said a with a smile as she sat down at her desk. "So do you guys actually have plans for for when the baby comes?"
"Well, me and Rachel want to go to college. I've send applications to colleges in Ohio and New York to study Football Management." Finn said before looking at Rachel. "I think Rachel is struggling to decide on what to do."
"Rachel, have you sent your applications to NYADA?" Ms Pillsbury asked.
Rachel nodded. "Everything is sent."
"Rachel, are you sure there's no colleges in Ohio that your interested in?" Ms Pillsbury asked calmly.
Rachel shook her head. "I want to go to New York."
Ms Pillsbury looked down and sighed. "Rachel, the problem is, the moment your baby comes your life is going to change forever. If you go to New York you have to raise the baby, focus on college, earn money to pay for an apartment, clothes and food for both you and the baby. I honestly think that's going to be too much for you."
"So your saying I can't go to New York?" Rachel said as tears filled her eyes. She felt like her dreams were being crushed.
"Rachel, I'm saying maybe you shouldn't go to New York this year, wait until your baby is a little older and you feel your ready." Ms Pillsbury said. "You have to take this one step at a time. You can still go to New York, it will just take a little longer."
"Maybe I could go to a college here and you can apply for NYADA next year." Finn said.
Ms Pillsbury nodded. "It would be better if you waited to next year. You could put the baby into daycare while your in college."
Rachel looked down and nodded. Feeling disappointed that she wouldn't be going to New York this year.
"You will get there." Finn said as he squeezed Rachel's hand. "I promise."
Rachel smiled and nodded. Knowing Finn was telling the truth. Finn would do anything to get Rachel to New York.

Later that day, Finn and Rachel were sitting together in Glee Club. Finn was doing his best to take Rachel's mind off not going to college this year. He held her hand and they talked about her Glee Club assignment. They saw Santana storm into the choir room.
"Finn! Rachel! What is going on here?" Santana said as she walked over to them. They saw her holding a page in her hand.
"What are you talking about?" Finn said as he looked at Rachel who had a confused look on her face.
"Did anyone see the recent post on Jacob's blog?" Santana said, looking at the group.
"Santana, what are you talking about?" Mr Schue asked as he walked over from the piano.
"I printed a copy of it." Santana said as she held up the page. She looked down and started reading it out loud. "Looks like we have our first Glee Club shocker of 2012. A source confirmed that Rachel Berry, captain of the Glee Club, is pregnant. The father is the Football Team's quarterback, Finn Hudson. It's also heard that Rachel's fathers didn't take the news well and kicked her out. So what will happen now? Is this why Rachel recently pulled out of the school election?Will we be seeing New Direction's at Nationals this year with a pregnant singer?"
Rachel took the page from Santana and started reading it. She felt sick knowing this was on Jacob's blog.
"Rachel, is that true?" Kurt asked.
Rachel didn't understand, how did Jacob find out? Who was the source who told him? Tears poured down her cheeks at the thought of the whole school knowing. She threw the page on the ground and ran out of the choir room, sobbing.
"Rachel, wait!" Finn called as he got up.
"Wait!" Quinn shouted as Finn was about to run out of the room. She stood up and walked towards the door. "Let me talk to her."
Quinn quickly ran out of the room after Rachel.

Quinn was suspicious these past few weeks. She saw that Rachel was a little more quiet. She would have never thought that Rachel was pregnant. She found it hard to believe. She searched all the bathrooms. Rachel was no where to be found. Quinn thought maybe Rachel would go somewhere no one would think of looking for her. For some reason the girls locker room came to mind. She quickly walked to the locker room. She heard Rachel's cries the moment she walked in. She looked around and saw Rachel sitting on the floor against the lockers.
"You know, I remember two years ago I said if the roles were reversed I would have tortured you." Quinn said with a small laughed.
"You told me to wait and I didn't listen." Rachel said between sobs. "Torture me all you want. Not knowing what's going to happen when my child arrives is torture. My dads kicking me out was torture. This can't get any worse."
Rachel started crying harder. Quinn sighed as she kneeled down on front of Rachel. "I'm not really going to torture you."
Quinn felt for heart break for Rachel. She watched as Rachel wiped the tears with the back of her hand. Quinn had never seen Rachel this upset before. "I'm sorry you have to go through this. I really understand how your feeling. Your hurt, scared, angry."
Rachel nodded as she felt more tears come to her eyes. Quinn's pregnancy was different to Rachel's but the emotions were nearly the same. "How did you get through it, Quinn?"
"I guess I just took it one day at a time." Quinn said. "Are you keeping it?"
Rachel nodded. "Why did you follow me, Quinn?"
"Well, when I was pregnant with Beth, all I wanted was a friend who could understand what it was like." Quinn said. "I never wanted anyone else to feel the way I felt during my pregnancy. If you let me, I want to help you."
"Really?" Rachel said through her tears.
Quinn nodded. "I want to help. I really know how your feeling."
"Thank you." Rachel said as she tried her best to smile.
"No problem." Quinn said as she stood up. She took Rachel's hands and helped her stand up. "Can I give you a hug?"
Rachel nodded. "Yes please."
Quinn wrapped her arms around Rachel and hugged her tightly. She rubbed circles on her back. "It's gonna be okay."
"Thank you, Quinn." Rachel said before Quinn let her go.
"We better go and find Finn. He's gonna be worried about you." Quinn said she walked out of the locker room with Rachel.

When Rachel saw Finn in the hallway waiting for her, she suddenly felt so nervous. She didn't know how he was gonna feel about this. Quinn went back to the choir room. So Finn and Rachel were alone. She didn't understand why she was so nervous. This was Finn, he always made her feel safe. Rachel took a deep breath and walked over to him.
"Finn, I'm so sorry." Rachel said as more tears fell from her eyes. "I don't know who found out or how they found out."
"Don't cry, okay?" Finn said as he wiped her tears with his thumb. "We're going to get through this together."
Rachel wrapped her arms around Finn and hugged him. Finn kissed the top of Rachel's head. "Mr Schue wants us to go back to the choir room."
Rachel looked up at him with teary eyes. "Do we have to?"
Finn nodded. "Yes."
He took Rachel's hand and they walked into the choir room together. Rachel had never felt this nervous in the choir room before. She didn't like having all eyes on her.
"Finn, Rachel, we just want you guys to know that we are all here for you." Mercedes said as she walked towards them with the rest of New Directions.
"We're going to help you in whatever way we can." Blaine said as he walked over.
"Thank you." Rachel said with a very small smile. "Finn and I really appreciate it."
Mr Schue went over to them. He put one arm around Finn and the other around Rachel and gave them both a hug. The rest of New Directions joined in. They were in a massive group hug. Now Finn and Rachel had to face the whole school knowing their secret.
