Disclaimer: I own nothing but one character. The songs are not mine and Glee is not mine.
This chapter is happier than the last and I hope you like it. I'm introducing a new character.
CHAPTER 7
Santana drove to the restaurant as Quinn asked after court. She was surprised to see Beth sitting at a table with a girl a bit older than her and an older man. She saw Quinn waving her over to the kitchen and she walked in.
"Who's that with little B?" Santana asked.
"A friend from school and her friend's driver." Quinn answered.
"What was so important that I be here as soon as possible?" Santana asked.
"The girl is a close friend of Rachel and Brittany's." Santana's eyes went wide. "When Beth dragged them out to the table she told me Rachel was right; my smile lights up a room."
"So Berry told her about us so what?" Santana shrugged.
"Brittany's been living with Rachel."
"And?"
Quinn smacked Santana upside the head. "You can fix things with Britt, when we were talking I could see that she still loves you."
Santana frowned. "What makes you think I want to get back with her?"
"I didn't say get back with her. Just to fix things." Quinn said putting the food on a plate."
"Are you gonna fix things with Berry? You two may never have been a couple but you two practically eye fucked each other every chance you got." Santana snorted.
"Yes. This is an opportunity for both of us." Quinn said.
"Fine, those better be one of mine." Santana said as Quinn nodded and handed her two plates while expertly balancing the three dishes.
"Hey." Quinn smiled putting the plates down. "Your Aunt Santana is joining us." Quinn said as Santana smiled and sat down beside Beth placing her plate in front of her while Quinn pulled a chair up to the booth and sat down.
"Santana Lopez, nice to meet you." they shook her hand and Taylor looked her over. "Something to say kid?"
"Nope." Taylor said shrugging.
"Aunt San be nice." Beth reprimanded.
"How old are you?" Santana asked Todd.
"Twenty one."
"And you hang out with kids and what is with the suit!" Santana asked.
"I work as Taylor's driver so I can pay for college, she asked her parents to give me the job." Todd said and Santana looked at Taylor.
"So you're not one of the rich kids who flaunt money and status?" Santana asked as Taylor nodded.
"She's not Melissa." Beth mumbled.
"Who's Melissa?" Quinn asked. So help her if this girl is messing with her daughter.
"She is or was my best friend. I don't know what happened but she broke our friendship up." Taylor said. "She likes to remind people she has money. She wasn't always like that." Taylor said trying to think of what happened between them.
"As long as she isn't messing with my daughter." Quinn said and Beth shot Taylor a look silently asking her not to tell her.
"Don't worry as of today I will personally kick the rear end of anyone who messes with her." Taylor smiled.
Santana huffed. "Humph! I was expecting a swear word."
"I don't think it's wise to swear in front of children." Taylor said as Beth huffed.
"I'm twelve!"
"I was considered a kid till my thirteenth birthday; I even got the Rachel Berry lecture on why you shouldn't swear." Taylor laughed.
"She talked your ear off huh? That midget always had too much energy." Santana chuckled.
"She doesn't have that much energy nowadays." Taylor sighed.
"Brittany told us she was alone. How did that happen?" Quinn asked.
"Rach feels as if she is alone. I mean you knew how her dream went right? Tony at twenty five, married and having a kid. She's single, twenty seven, childless and has her Tony. She just doesn't know that she has me and now Brittany. She feels as if Kurt, Mercedes and Puck put up with her for the same reasons as high school but they get to brag to their friends that they are close to Broadway star Rachel Berry." Taylor said.
"Is that really how they feel?" Quinn asked as Taylor shrugged.
"I don't know but if it is they better watch their backs because the second they let their guard down I will be right there ready to humiliate them with some elaborate scheme." Taylor smiles.
"I think I might get to like you." Santana smiled.
"Brittany said you were gorgeous but scared anyone with a look. I don't see it." Taylor said and then cringed at the vicious look. "Now I see it." Taylor smiled.
Beth laughed. "She's a lawyer; she knows how to be vicious."
"You seem to know a bit about us, tells us a bit about yourself." Quinn said.
"I'm fifteen, my dad is a well known psychiatrist who is called all around the world and my mother runs her father's business. Lancaster Industries." Taylor said. "I'm an only child but surprisingly not spoiled, I live across the hall to Rachel Berry and Brittany Pierce. Anything else you would like to know?"
"Nope." Quinn said as they continued eating.
"How long have you known Rachel?" Beth asked.
"A little over three years, the moving crew was making a lot of noise so I baked her cookies and brought them over." Taylor answered.
"You never made me cookies in the two years since I've known you." Todd pouted.
"Suck it up, I'll buy you those candies you like so much." Taylor patted his shoulder. Todd smiled.
Taylor checked her watch almost an hour later. "We have to go, I have homework and then chores. Rachel may have hired the nanny but gave direct instructions that I was to help out around the place." Taylor sighed and smiled at Beth when she frowned at the mention of homework.
"I'll see you tomorrow, thanks for the ride." Beth smiled.
"No problem." Taylor turned to Quinn and Santana. "Nice meeting you both." She dug into her back pocket and produced a wallet. "She'll probably be angry but here." Taylor hands them tickets. "The play runs through Friday this week and it's very good. Rachel does amazing."
Beth takes them with a big smile. "Thank you." she looks at Quinn and puts on the puppy dog pout. "Mommy can we go? Please?"
Quinn couldn't say not to that face. "Sure." she looked at Taylor. "Are you going to be there?"
"Yeah, I usually am on Fridays." Taylor said as Todd stood. "Bye."
"Thanks for the delicious food." Todd waved as he followed Taylor out. Neither spoke till they got to the car.
"Rachel just might kill you." Todd chuckled ad Taylor nodded.
"If not her; Brittany."
Review please. =D
