CHAPTER 22
A week had passed since the incident in Taylor's room. Rachel and Quinn made it point not to enter any room without knocking now and Beth was still a bit confused but shrugged it off. Rachel was also having a hard time looking them in the eye.
Like right now during breakfast. Rachel's eyes were trained on the coffee mug and Taylor was glaring at her while shoveling down cereal.
"You know it's not that hard to look at someone." Taylor grumbled.
"It's hard ok?" Rachel said looking at her but not in the eye. "I see the innocent little twelve year old."
"Wow…" Taylor drawled placing her bowl into the sink. "You two ready to go?" Taylor asked Todd and Amy who nodded.
When they arrived at school Taylor kissed Melissa softly.
"Hey." Taylor smiled.
"Hey, Rachel still not looking you in the eye?" Melissa asked taking her hand as they walked Beth to her class.
"Yep, says she still thinks of me as a twelve year old when she's been there for most of my infidelities." Taylor sighed.
"Infidelities?' Amy asked and Melissa rolled her eyes.
"She hates talking about it but I've drank, smoked, ditched, and the list goes on." Taylor says using hand motions.
"Unfortunately there is more." Melissa said rolling her eyes taking Taylor's hand. "But those days are over." She smiled kissing Taylor's hand.
"When's the wedding?" Brittany asked Rachel once Santana and Quinn had headed off to work.
"We haven't decided, she's talked to her mother and I've called my parents. Her sister is pushing for her to get a date." Rachel sighed.
"When do you want it?"
"Thanksgiving is next week and I would love to go visit but Taylor's life seems to be calming down for once." Rachel groaned.
"What do you want?" Brittany asked reaching across the table grabbing Rachel's hand.
"I want Taylor to be happy, I want to marry Quinn as fast as I possibly can even if it means going to Vegas. I need her and I can't let her or Beth out of my life. I want to not be alone." Rachel whispered the last part.
Brittany squeezed her hand once. "You aren't alone Rach, you have me, Taylor, Quinn, Beth, Todd, San, Amy and Melissa. I told you before you aren't alone." Brittany smiled and Rachel returned it.
"I know." Rachel looked at the clock.
"When do you have to get to the theater?" Brittany asked.
"Noon." Rachel answered standing up. "I should go get ready." She headed up the stairs and Brittany frowned.
"I didn't know she felt that way." Quinn murmured stepping out from behind the wall.
"She keeps it inside. Rachel may be an adult now but she still has part of her high school self. The scared one." Brittany said. "The insecure one." She added and Quinn nodded.
Quinn headed back to work and once in her office she opened her internet browser and purchased four tickets to Connecticut. She called Brittany who cheered and purchased tickets for herself and told Todd of their plans once he got back from dropping off the girls. He bought tickets for himself, Amy and Melissa to surprise her.
Quinn called her sister and mother then the Berrys and Shelby who would all meet them in Connecticut
