Didge
Rachel is happy sitting with glee up at lunch time eating her salad when a text message comes through and makes her phone vibrate, she sighs at the now all too familiar feeling, she bets with herself, she already knows that she's won, she already knows what the text is about. She pulls out a non-bedazzled phone, to the surprise of most of the glee club, who were now watching her having heard the sigh and seen the roll of the eyes she had given. She clicked a few buttons and opened up a text.
Rachel change of plans we're leaving early so you need to get home now- Sebastian
Rachel grits her teeth and then chews her bottom lip in frustration and then stands up, gathering all of her things, she says her goodbyes to her teammates and then shares a look with Tina, Mike and Quinn, who had already figured what was going on out, but had now gotten the confirmation they needed, all three sighed in unison as they see that look in her eyes again. She leaved without a word after that, she doesn't miss the curious look a certain Latina sent her way however.
Rachel was gone for the rest of the day, surprising some of the glee club further, most thinking she had just gone to practice a song or something. When glee club rolls around and people walk in to see the usual chair Rachel occupies empty they are all pretty certain that hell has indeed frozen over. Mr Schue walks in five minutes later and looks around the room, something was different, some was missing, it was to quiet, he looks to a certain seat and frowns.
'Where's Rachel?' he asks his eyes going to a certain blonde and an Asian couple, Mike looks from Tina to Quinn and then turns to Mr Schue and answers for everyone.
'Rachel left at lunch Mr Schue, after she got a text message' Mike explains to him, Mr Schue sighs and understanding crosses face and gives a small defeated nod, then he claps his hands and continues on with the meeting, they get ten minutes in when there's a knock at the door, everyone stops and watches as it opens and reveals a certain diva, she was stood with there with what looked to be a two year old girl in her arms, she looks in and smiles tiredly at Mr Schue, he nods and smiles at her sympathetically.
'Sorry I'm late Mr Schue, Sebastian and Joseph had to leave earlier than originally planned' Rachel told him with an eye roll, she looked down at the girl in her arms and smiled when she realised the infant was fast asleep. Rachel steps into the room and then walks to where Quinn is sitting, Mike and Tina were sat behind her.
'Quinn would you mind taking her for me?' Rachel asked the blonde, shocking all but three people in the room, Quinn nodded happily and took the tiny girl with a smile.
'So Didge it joining us for today?' Tina asked from behind, her eyes soft and on the sleeping form of the baby, a soft smile played at her lips, Rachel sat down heavily and tiredly in her seat. She nodded at the Asian sat behind her and wiped a hand across her face tiredly.
'Yeah, no babysitters at such short notice' Rachel explained and gave them a defeated shrug.
'Hold up, who the hell is this girl?' Santana snapped, Rachel had been avoiding eye contact with her since she had entered the room, just as she asked the tiny girl jumped awake, a sent filled her nose and it wasn't Rachel. The tiny girls eyes filled with tears and then she let out a cry.
'Mommy!' the tiny girl wailed and all of the rooms attention snapped to the tiny brunette in Quinn's arms, Quinn tried to calm her down as she rubbed the girls back.
'Mommy!' the girl cried once more, Rachel bit her lip and then placed a hand into the tiny outstretched one, she hated seeing the little girl in front of her cry.
'I'm right here Bridget, don't worry baby girl, Aunty Quinn's holding you' Rachel told the small infant, her voice soft and soothing as her thumb rubbed the back of the girls hand soothingly.
Bridget looked at Rachel with tear filled eyes, her cries finally starting to subside at her hearing her mother's voice, she looked up to Quinn who smiled gently at Bridget and kissed her forehead.
'Aunty Quinn?' Santana snapped out exasperated, 'Mommy!' she snapped once more a little angrier now that everything was sinking in.
'Guys, this is Bridget Taylor Berry, we also call her Didge or Didget' Rachel told them, finally introducing the group to the miniature brunette.
'But mommy? And when the fuck did Quinn become Aunty Quinn?' Santana yelled, ignoring the four glares she got when she swore. Rachel sighed before looking up at her.
'I asked Quinn over one day, she said yes and asked me why I was reaching out to her, especially after what she had done to me, I explained it to her' Rachel told them, she looked at their expectant faces and knew she had to carry on explaining and so she did.
Flashback
Rachel approached Quinn at her locker, she was a little nervous as walked up to face the pregnant girl, she needed to though, Quinn needed someone to be there for her and be able to understand what she is going through, so Rachel took in a breath and soldiered on.
'Quinn?' Rachel asked getting the blonde's attention.
'What?' Quinn snapped out at her, she looked at Rachel expectantly and slightly annoyed.
'I was, uh, wondering if you would like to come to my house tomorrow?' Rachel asked nervously, she fiddled with her hands.
'And why on earth would I want to do that?' Quinn snapped back at her, looking very unimpressed.
'You need to talk to someone about how you feel, you need someone there for you, because Quinn, you're not alone, I want to help you' Rachel told her and Quinn actually looked shocked.
'Why would you want to help me?' Quinn asked her body language softer now, she seemed to be genuinely interested.
'Come over tomorrow at half four, you'll see why I want to help you then' Rachel told her and then left before anything else could even be said.
The next day Rachel was pacing the floor of her living room with an eleven month old Bridget in her arms, the girl was chewing on a teething ring. Rachel glanced at the clock on the fireplace and it showed that it was now twenty to five, she had basically gotten the idea Quinn wasn't going to show up, she sighed and was about to sit down when the doorbell rang.
Rachel raised an eyebrow and then walked to the door with Bridge it still in her arms, Rachel opened the door and came face to face with Quinn looking back at her, the girl looked wide eyed at Rachel and then the tiny girl in her arms, the diva took a step to the side and allowed the blonde in with a shy smile.
Once Quinn was in she took the girls coat and led her to the living room, she waited as Quinn looked around and then perched on a sofa, Rachel placed Bridget in the play pen and sat down opposite Quinn.
'You asked me yesterday why I wanted to help you, why I was reaching out to you' Rachel began and Quinn nodded, Rachel took in a deep breath and hoped she was doing the right thing. 'Quinn I would like you to meet Bridget, my daughter' Rachel told her.
End of flashback
'Once I told her about Bridget she came to me more often, we shared stories about the pregnancies and we became close, soon enough we became close friends and Quinn became Aunty Quinn.' Rachel explained to the silent glee club, all of them listening to Rachel intensely, all hanging on every word until she finished. Most were stunned except for the obvious three.
'What about Tina and Mike? How do they know?' Mercedes asked before Santana could continue with her questions.
'Mike lives next door to me, he was there when I first moved in so he had always known, he has been my best friend since I came here, supported me throughout everything, Tina, she found out when they came back from Asian camp as a couple, Mike had decided to come round my place to hang out one day, she went to his and found he was over mine, she came round and found us in the living room watching a movie and playing with Didge, she joined us like it was the most natural thing ever' Rachel explained and the other nodded Mike and Tina smiling at the memory as Bridget started playing with Quinn's hands and fingers making the blonde smile.
'What about Mr Schue though? He knows' Puck said cutting the others off before they could talk.
'Ah good ol' Uncle Will' Rachel said with a laugh and Mr Schue smiled at her warmly. 'Mr Schue found me crying in the room actually, and well I broke down some more and blabbed my whole situation to him, I had bottled so much up, even with Mike there it was more then I could handle so I just let everything out, he was the second person to know from Lima and her helped and supported me a hell of a lot better the Sebastian and Joseph ever did' Rachel explained with a sigh thinking about her two so called father's.
Santana was not happy, actually she was angry... maybe pissed, she was the last to hear about this, she could not believe it, she stood up and stomped down the risers, Rachel wasn't to surprised by the action if she was being honest.
'How could you not tell me about this Rachel?' she yelled 'I mean what the hell else have you lied to me about? Cause you said to me, you wanted me to be you first, I see now that I actually won't be' Santana said fuming.
'You would of been if she had, had the choice' Mike yells getting angry, he hated people talking to his friend like that, as soon as his words leave his mouth it snaps shut. Santana looks from an apologetic looking Mike to Rachel who had her eyes closed.
'What does he mean by that Rachel?' The fiery Latina asks, Rachel opens her eyes and looks up to her, then her eyes drift to Mr Schue for encouragement before going back to the Latina.
'He means that if I had, had the choice you really would of been my first, but I didn't get that choice, so I'm sorry about that' Rachel said looking her in the eye.
Santana stops at those words and thinks them over, she softens as she realises what it means, everything starts to click into place, why Rachel wasn't ready for that level yet, and why it had taken so long to get to the other levels, Santana looks at Rachel to see tearful brown orbs looking right back at her. Rachel manages to speak before she does.
'I know I should of told you when I had the chance, but I couldn't, I didn't want you to feel disgusted by me and walk away because you didn't want me anymore.' Rachel said softly.
'Hold up why is she so important?' Mercedes asks, once again butting in.
'Really you haven't figured it out yet?' Rachel asked in disbelief, she didn't lose eye contact or look away from Santana, who finally manages to form words and speak.
'How could you think I would leave you?' Santana asked.
'I'm damaged goods, why would anybody want me?' Rachel asks looking down at herself and feeling disgusted with her body.
'I want you, god Rae you should know now how much I want you, I love you so much, I would of helped you, you should never thought I would leave you' Santana says softly.
'I'm sorry' Rachel replies still looking down, Santana kneels down in front of her.
'Stop apologising, you kept it from me for what you thought to be a good reason, but I don't want you to keep anything from me anymore, you don't have to, I want to know everything Rae, please, you can trust me, I'm never going to leave you' Santana says to her, her eyes full of sincerity and honesty.
'Oh my god, you two, your together' Kurt exclaims 'as if I never saw that' Kurt says with a frown.
Both girls look at the boy and the roll their eyes simultaneously causing Quinn, Brittany, Tina and Mike to laugh.
Rachel looks back at the Latina who was still kneeling in front of her, Bridget decides then she wants to crawl from her Aunt to her mommy, the tiny girl sits up and looks at Santana, Santana smiled when she noticed that the small infant in front of her had identical eyes as her mother. Santana sits bacon her knees just taking in the two brunettes in front of her, Bridget giggles hitting her hands on her legs and then rocking forwards and then back, Santana smiles at the cute little girl.
'Santana this is my daughter Bridget, Bridget this is Santana' Rachel introduces them.
'Sant Ana' Bridget says causing her aunts and uncles to chuckle along with her mother and Santana.
'Bridge call her San' Rachel says softly and Bridget gave her a beaming smile exactly like Rachel's and nods her head.
'San' Bridget says, sticking her finger out and pointing it at Santana, she smiles at the older girl in front of her.
'Hi Bridget' Santana says, not quite sure what your meant to say to a two year baby girl.
Mr Schue ends the session knowing that Rachel and Santana needed to have a talk.
Once everyone had left Santana sat down next to Rachel and just waited for the girl to explain. Rachel cleared her throat before starting, taking a quick look at the Latina and then looking away, she knows she won't be able to look at Santana while she tell her what happened.
'I was raped by a man called Casey Mathews, he's in jail at the moment, he had attacked three other girls, two of those were raped, another brutally beaten, I had both done to me, I was his last attack, it was eleven months before we moved here, I was found by a stranger who was walking through a park, they did a rape kit and found his DNA inside of me, I was told a couple of weeks later that I was pregnant, everyone found out, it got so much harder with the looks of sympathy r disgust in some cases sometimes people thought I got what I deserved for being a daughter of two gay men, after my dad's found out I was pregnant a rift started to show in the family, they started to spend more time at work, my daddy Sebastian got a promotion just after I had Didge, we moved to Lima, everything changed, they left me alone and went on what they called business trips, Mike had greeted me and welcomed me and took a shine to Bridge, I was thankful maybe I would at least have someone, we started hanging out, he started helping me more often and my dad's started leaving me more often, the trips getting longer each time, now they can be gone months at a time, Mike, Tina, Quinn and Will all help me care for her, they help with babysitting, the only thing my dad's do help with is money, they give me guilt money so that I can provide for Bridge and myself easily, it's about the only thing they are good at, my dreams of being on Broadway are real dreams, I know I may not get there, it's worth a shot though I still have to try and I already know some people who are going to accompany me to New York to help me.' Rachel tells her everything and Santana listens, she smiles when Rachel tells her she isn't giving up on her dreams, she's happy about that.
'I'm coming to' Santana says.
Rachel looks at her with a raised eyebrow, wanting her to go on.
'To New York I mean, I'm coming to, if I'm invited' Santana says and smiles shyly at her.
'Of course your allowed, I wouldn't want it any other way' Rachel tells her and smiles happily at her.
'I love you Rachel, don't ever think I don't because I do, you and now your daughter are my world and I am going to do everything in my power to help and support you and also to make your dreams come true' Santana says looking Rachel straight in the eye, tears spring to Rachel's eyes out of pure happiness.
'That means so much to me San, just those words, I can hear you mean them' Rachel says and leans in for a kiss which Santana happily gives. 'I love you to San' Rachel tells her with a smile and Santana gives her a giddy grin, she doesn't even care that she looks like a fool.
'Good' Santana tells her and Rachel chuckles. The hear Bridget laugh and look down only to see her staring at the door, Quinn's sitting there in the door frame playing boo with the younger girl as Mike and Tina stand behind smiling at the three of them fondly.
