Finn dropped Quinn off at Puck's first, She gave Rachel a supportive hug before she got out of the car, she watched them as Finn drove off and a tear fell down her cheek, right now she admired Rachel for being so strong, she really felt all the sympathy in the world for her, she would hate to feel what she felt right now.
"Finn?" Rachel said "Would you come in with me? I want to tell my parents"
"Of course" Finn said nodding, he pulled up at Rachel's house, he jumped out of the car and moved to her side and opened to door, he helped her from the car and held her hand while they entered the house
"Hello Princess" Leroy one of her dad's said, she smiled at him and they both mad their way to the sofa to sit down, one they were seated Rachel looked at Finn, he squeezed her hand in response and she breathed in.
"I need to tell you something" she said quietly, "It's not going to be easy to say, but I need to tell you" she said tears once again escaping her eyes and tiny gentle sobs began until she stopped them.
Her dad's shared a looked "Ok" Leroy said and he nodded at her
"I'm" she said a sob breaking out "I'm pregnant, daddy I'm pregnant and I don't know what to do" she cried
"Are you sure" Leroy asked, pain in his voice as he watched his daughters heart break in front of him. She nodded and handed him the scan she got at the doctors, he looked at it and felt a tear fall down his face "Don't worry, We'll be here for you sweetie" Both of her dads crossed the room and put their arms around her, not knowing what else to do beside comfort their little girl
"Thank you" she whispered burying her face in her dad's chest
They sat that way for about half an hour before Rachel felt she was ready to get up, she walked into the kitchen and got herself a glass of water.
Finn sat awkwardly into the living room, not wanting to say anything, he didn't feel it was his place to talk; he was only there because Rachel needed him.
"Thanks for being there for Rachel, the whole way through everything" one her dad's said and smiled at him.
He returned the smile "It's the least I can do, I really care about her and she really needs her friends around her right now. She has me and the entire glee club" he smiled
"Do they know?" he asked, referring to her pregnancy, Finn shook his head and the dad's nodded "Does anyone else know?" her dad asked
"Just Quinn and me" he said "She was too frightened to tell anyone else, If Quinn hadn't of found her I don't know if she would have told anyone yet, she was terrified of everything"
"We want her to go to see a counsellor, but I just know she will refuse" her dad said sadly "She has to much pride, but it could help, we hear her crying every night and it's just not healthy, she's trying to bury it when she should be talking about it" he said and Finn nodded "I don't know what to do about her"
"I'll talk to her, I can't promise anything I suggested it before, but she told me she wanted to forget all about it and never speak or think about it again, but with the baby now she'll have to" he sighed, it will be constantly in her life for the next 6 months or so, and when she decided what she is doing it will still be there, even if it is just signs on her body" he sighed
"Do you know what she has decided about the baby?"
Finn shook his head "I know she's think about adoption but, I don't know if she could keep it, it would cause her too much pain, how could she look after her knowing where she came from? What she came from?"
"Her?" Leroy asked
Finn nodded "It's a girl" A tear fell down both of her dad's cheeks, they looked at one another a small sad smile on their face
Rachel joined them back in the living room "I heard what you said" she told them, looking sadly at the ground "And I agree, I need to see a counsellor, this isn't healthy at all, it will be putting stress on the baby and this is none of her fault, She deserves the be happy in there" Rachel said smiling at her dad's
They nodded "We'll phone and make you an appointment, but I don't want you to feel pressured into the baby!" they told her
She shook her head "I want to, for everyone's sake" she said "I'm a mess and it's not fair on everyone around me, and it's not fair on me either, I'm torturing myself"
They all nodded and smiled, Finn took her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze, he smiled at her, the loving smile she loved that made her hear jump slightly, she returned the smile and his heart melted, it was the first time that smile had been on her face in months, the smile that Finn knew was her way of telling him how much she cared for him, and how much she appreciated him, Finn loved that smile.
"And I want to tell everyone, they're going to find out soon anyway, And I want it to come from me, no one else. When I go to school tomorrow I will sit them all down and tell them" she said
"Don't go rushing into things Rach" her dads said, but she shook her head and told them it was what she wanted and they agreed.
The next morning she woke up before her alarm, the first time she had done this in a long time, she smiled at the thought of her mind feeling clear and she got out of bed and into the shower. Instead of feeling dirty and trying to scrub her body of all the hurt and anger in it she enjoyed the warm spray of the water.
Finn picked her outside her house at exactly the time she told him too, she smiled at him when she got into the car and as he drove off she kissed his cheek "What was that for?" he asked but a smile was playing on his face
"Everything" she smiled "And I'm sorry about everything, I know you feel you are to blame, but I believe in fate and this is what was meant to happen, It will be hard but this will make me a stronger person"
Finn nodded "Are you sure you want to do this today?" he asked her
She nodded "They need to know, and like you said they will all support me, and to have their support they need to know what is happening in my life. It isn't right to keep them out, were a family Finn" she smiled, he smiled at her and the rest of the ride to school was silent.
The bell rung and the glee kids poured into the choir room, Rachel and Finn were already there, all the glee members smiled at her, the sympathetic smile, but she brushed it off and gave them a genuine one back.
When Mr Shue arrived Rachel announced that she had something to say, she walked to the front of the class and looked at each member, Finn joined her and took her hand in his.
She cleared her throat and breathed a long breath before she began, "As you all know I have been going through a few things within the last few months, it hasn't been easy" tears pricked at her eyes but she did all she could to blink them back, she was so nervous, but she didn't show it, her eyes locked with Quinn's the one member who already knew what she was going to say "I have something I need to tell you" she continued
"You're not leaving are you?" Kurt gasped
"No" she said a little giggle in her voice
"Good, We can't survive without you Rach" he said and the other members nodded and agreed.
Her eyes pricked even harder with tears and one was released, she wiped it away and continued "Thank you" she said her voice cracking a little "I won't be leaving, but I may need a little bit of leave" she said, she took another breath before she said it, those two words "I'm pregnant"
Everyone one of the glee club's members eyes widened in shock, Mr Shue's included, each one of the gasped silently and each one of them felt complete sympathy towards Rachel, by now tears were silently falling down her cheeks, she wiped the quickly away, but her eyes were full of them.
"Were so sorry" Rachel Tina said, everyone nodded in agreement, Quinn stood up and hugged her, "I told you they would all be here for you" she whispered to her, she squeezed her tightly before she returned to her seat, her hand on her own stomach as she looked at Puck and he smiled at her.
Mr Shue stood up and walked toward her, the hurt was clear in his eyes, he didn't say anything he just hugged Rachel, a tear fell down his cheek as he thought of how much pain she would be in right now, no one deserved this, especially not Rachel Berry.
"Mr Shue, I have a song I'd like us to sing" Finn said lifting sheet music from his bag, he looked at the glee club and they all nodded, he handed out the words skipping Rachel, he set her on a seat while the rest of the glee club moved beside Finn. He handed a sheet to the musicians and the music began to play.
Finn did most of the song, but the glee club backed him up the whole way through.

Rachel's face was soaked with tears and she watched each of her friends sing to her, each of them had a message in their eyes and she could tell that each one of them right now had put aside their feeling for her and they all just showed her love and care. And right now that is what she needed.
