So this just might be my favorite chapter! LOTS of Quinn and Hayley! I'm so happy that everyone is looking forward to the sequel! I hope you all like it! Enjoy!
I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING EXCEPT AUDREY, HAYLEY, RYAN, AND SYDNEY!
"We should do something special for Mother's day," said Audrey. "Like what?" Hayley asked as she sat down next to Audrey on her bed. "I don't know something other than the usual card and present," said Audrey. "How about a song?" Hayley suggested. "That's a good idea what song did you have in mind?"
Hayley thought for a minute for the perfect song. She pulled out her iPod from her jean pocket and scrolled through the list of songs. "Here, listen," said Hayley as she handed Audrey one of the ear buds. "This is really good! We should do it!" said Audrey as she took the ear bud out of her ear. "You know to make it even more special you should learn how to play the guitar for when we sing it," said Hayley. "There's just one problem Hayley. I don't have a single clue about playing the guitar!" stated Audrey. "Well I can teach you! I have to say I'm pretty good at it," Hayley said jokingly. Audrey laughed, "Alright fine."

"Happy Mother's Day!" said Finn and Audrey as they walked into Finn and Rachel's bedroom with her breakfast and a bouquet of flowers. Rachel sat up with a sleepy smile on her face, "Aww you didn't have to do this." "Mom we do this every year," said Audrey as she got up on the bed and sat next to her Mom and handed her the flowers as Finn handed her the breakfast tray with all of her favorite breakfast foods. "Thank you," Rachel said to Finn as she placed a kiss on his lips. Audrey coughed to get her Mom's attention, Rachel laughed. "You too, thank you," she said as she placed a kiss on her daughters head.
Finn had left to go clean up the kitchen as Audrey sat next to her Mom on the bed. "So Mom, I know probably the last thing you want to do is go out so how about we have a Barbra Streisand movie marathon?" said Audrey. Rachel's eyes lit up, "Really?" "Yeah! I know how much you love her," said Audrey as Rachel hugged her daughter. "Alright now let me have a bite of French Toast," said Audrey as Rachel laughed.

From her bedroom Quinn could hear laughter and giggles from down stairs, she knew they were making breakfast for her. Soon enough Sam, Hayley, Ryan, and Sydney arrived in her bedroom with breakfast and gifts. "Happy Mother's Day!" said the four of them in unison. Quinn smiled at them, "Happy Mother's Day Mommy!" said Sydney as he handed her Mom some pictures she drew for her including one of a butterfly, another with flowers, and one with a picture of her and Sydney that said Mommy and Me at the top in crayon. "Hay Hay helped me write that," said Sydney. Quinn laughed, "Thank you baby I'll treasure these forever!" as she hugged her daughter tight and placed a kiss on her cheek.
"Happy Mother's Day Mommy," said Ryan as he handed her a card he made which read, Dear Mommy, Happy Mother's Day. You do so much for me, I love you so much! –Ryan. "Aww buddy I love you too! Thank you!" said Quinn as she hugged her son and gave him a kiss as well.
Then Hayley walked over, "Alright Mom, my gift is coming later tonight but I do have something to show you." Hayley opened her laptop and placed it on Quinn's lap and pressed play on the video.
Hi Mom its Beth! ('Hey Quinn' said Puck in the background). Beth laughed, Dad say's hi too.
Quinn started to tear up.
I just want to say Happy Mother's Day and how much I love you! I miss you so much. I really wish I could be there right now to just hug you and give my gift to you but I'm just going to give it to you right now. Beth pulled out her guitar and began to sing.
People always say I have a laugh
Like My Mother Does
Guess that makes sense
She taught me how to smile when things get rough
I've got her spirit
And she's always got my back
When I look at her,
I think I wanna be just like that!
When I love, I give it all I got!
Like my mother does
When I'm scared, I bow my head and pray!
Like my mother does
When I feel weak, and un-pretty!
I know I'm beautiful and strong!
Because, I see myself
Like my mother does
I never met a stranger,
I can talk to anyone
Like my mother does
I let my temper fly
But she can walk away, when she's had enough
She sees everybody, for who they really are
I'm so thankful for her guidance,
She's helped me get this far
When I love, I give it all I got!
Like my mother does
And when I'm scared, I bow my head and pray!
Like my mother does
When I feel weak, and un-pretty!
I know I'm beautiful and strong!
Because, I see myself,
Like my mother does!
She's a rock!
She is grace!
She's an angel!
She's...
My heart and soul!
She does it all!
When I love! I give it all I got!
Like my mother does
And when I'm scared! I bow my head and pray!
Like my mother does
When I feel weak, and un-pretty!
I know I'm beautiful and strong!
Because, I see myself,
Like my mother does!
I hear people saying... I'm starting to look
Like my mother does...
I love you Mom, Happy Mother's Day! Beth blew her a kiss, Love you.
When the screen went black Quinn had tears streaming down her face, she loved Beth so much. "Aww Mom are you ok?" Hayley asked. "Yeah I am, I loved all of your presents. I can't wait to see yours Hayley," said Quinn as she wiped off some of the tears. Sam gave her a kiss on the lips and left with Ryan and Sydney. "Ok, so after you finish eating breakfast, get dressed because I'm taking you out for a special day," said Hayley. "You are? Aww sweetheart you don't have to do that," said Quinn. "No I want to! It's part of my present."
After lunch, Quinn and Hayley headed towards the mall to shop. "That's a cute bag you got back at that store," said Hayley as the two walked through the mall. "Yeah! I have to show Beth over iChat when we get home," said Quinn. Hayley has always loved her Mom but deep down she had always felt that she loved Beth more. She had always denied it but the thought had always come up in her head.
On the car ride home Hayley brought up the problem, "Hey Mom can I ask you something?"
"Sure sweetheart, anything."
"Do you love Beth more than me?"
"Of course not! Why would you ever think that?"
"Well ever since Beth left for college all you talk about is how much you miss her and I understand that she's far away and that you miss her. But just like at the video you had tears streaming down your face but you have never cried like that at any of the gifts I have given you. And you always talk like you're best friends but you never talk like that to me," said Hayley as she started to cry. Quinn saw how upset Hayley was so she pulled the car over to the side of the road. "Hayley look at me," said Quinn as she took Hayley's hand. Hayley turned to face her Mom, "Hayley I have loved you with all my heart since I found out I was pregnant with you," said Quinn as she wiped off her daughters tears. "Don't you ever think for a minute that I love you more than Beth in any way. I love all of you equally. Maybe I haven't given you as much attention but I love you so much Hayley," said Quinn as she pulled Hayley in for a hug.
"I love you too Mom," said Hayley. The mother and daughter soon let go, "If you ever need to talk Hay, I'm always here for you. You know that right?" "Yeah I do," responded Hayley. "Do you think we could have another one of these days again? Just me and you?" Hayley asked. Quinn smiled, "Of course."

The Hudson's went over the Evans' to celebrate Mother's day. After dinner Hayley and Audrey were ready to perform their songs. Audrey borrowed Hayley's guitar and Hayley used her Dad's.
"Ok everyone Audrey and I want to share something with all of you," said Hayley aloud for everyone could hear. Everyone gathered in the living room as Hayley and Audrey held guitars in their hands. Quinn and Rachel sat next to each other and had their attention on their daughters. "Ok so Hayley and I have something special to share with all of you," said Audrey. "This is for our Mom's and each part we sing is specifically for you. Happy Mother's Day," said Hayley. The two girls then started to strum:
[Hayley]
I'm five years old, it's getting cold, I've got my big coat on
I hear your laugh and look up smiling at you, I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch and the tractor rides, look now, the sky is gold
I hug your legs and fall asleep on the way home
I don't know why all the trees change in the fall
But I know you're not scared of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day with you today
[Audrey]
I'm thirteen now and don't know how my friends could be so mean
I come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys
And we drive and drive until we found a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop 'til I've forgotten all their names
I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school
But I know I'm laughing on the car ride home with you
Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay
But I know I had the best day with you today
[Audrey]
I have an excellent father, his strength is making me stronger
[Hayley]
God smiles on my little brother, inside and out, he's better than I am
I grew up in a pretty house and I had space to run
And I had the best days with you
[Hayley]
There is a video I found from back when I was three
You set up a paint set in the kitchen and you're talking to me
[Audrey]
It's the age of princesses and pirate ships and the seven dwarfs
[Hayley]
And Daddy's smart and you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world
[Hayley]
And now I know why the all the trees change in the fall
[Audrey]
I know you were on my side even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
For staying back and watching me shine
[Hayley and Audrey]
And I didn't know if you knew, so I'm takin' this chance to say
That I had the best day with you today
By the end of the song Rachel and Quinn had tears in their eyes and Audrey and Hayley ran over to give them a hug. "That was beautiful," said Quinn. "Audrey where did you learn to play the guitar?" Finn asked. "This girl," Audrey said as she nudged Hayley. "Well were both glad you loved it," said Audrey. "I did have the best day with you today," said Hayley as she hugged her Mom and Audrey did the same.
Sweet right? When I heard the song 'The Best Day' by Taylor Swift I just had to add it in to this chapter! So as you can see I went in depth between Quinn and Hayley's relationship which I thought the story needed.
I just might be able to finish Audrey Hudson by Monday so get ready!
Next Chapter: Finn and Audrey have a father daughter day before the baby is born. Regionals is here and the second Hudson child arrives! Lots to come!
Please Review!
