Opening Night
Age : 2
A/N Okay so basically GleekOut87 asked me to include the ages and that is a really really good idea. So thank you, GleekOut87, I really appreciate that. Thanks for sticking around!
Disclaimer : Okay I kinda forgot to mention this but, I don't own Glee. If you recognize something, chances are, I probably don't own it. Also, I'm writing this with jet lag and about 5 hours of sleep over the past 2 days.
No matter how many shows she had done, opening night jitters were just something that she couldn't get rid of. It doesn't matter that she could recite everything that was going to happen in her sleep, nothing could shake the nerves.
But of course, she was Rachel Berry and nothing, nothing would stop her from putting on a fantastic, Tony worthy performance.
Tonight was extra special though, Gabe and Noah would both be there, in the reserved seats, watching her perform. There was absolutely no way anything would go wrong.
It was a new play, written and directed by now one of Rachel's closet friends, Mia Nelson. Even though she played the main character, she didn't appear until after the first intermission.
Said intermission soon came and so did the nerves. Waiting stage left for her cue of the third breeze, she scanned the audience until she found to the two people who mattered most. Meanwhile the play continued.
"It is unfortunate that your mother has died, however Ms. Rein, the cremation isn't free."
"B-but Mister Lee, her last requests were to be cremated!"
Suddenly, Rachel walked in and boomed.
"My last requests, were for you to stop!"
The white train swished as she stepped into the spotlight.
The girl on stage, a great actress name Dina Griffenth, paled and began to shake.
"It was you, my sweet little baby gir-"
"Mommy!"
Rachel stuttered.
"Hi, Mommy!"
Little giggles were heard throughout the audience as Noah tried to shush Gabe.
"But Daddy, I want Mommy to say hi back."
Noah shot her a pleading look until finally, Rachel relented.
"Hi, Gabe. Now Mommy needs you to be quiet, okay?"
He nodded and put his hands over his mouth. She took a deep breath and glared back at Elana.
"It was you, my sweet little baby girl, Annie. Do you remember what I said as you did the deed? Do you? Because I won't forget. I will never forget."
The rest of the play went flawlessly. After multiple encores, the cast left to change out of their costumes to meet at Mozzie's. Waiting in her dressing room, were the two of them. He kissed her, make-up and all.
"Congratulations, babe. That was amazing."
"Yeah!" cried Gabe, waddling over and waving his arms to be picked up by his mommy.
"I like it."
She chuckled before looking him in the eye.
"Gabriel Aaron Puckerman. You cannot do that ever again. Okay? You have to promise me that that will never happen again."
"Okay, Mommy."
"Thank you, Gabe."
"I love you, Mommy."
"Aw, I love you too."
"Hey hey, I love you too," a voice cut in from behind.
Rachel turned around to see Noah in the door way with a bouquet of yellow tulips in his hands.
"Congratulations on your best show yet."
A/N Okay yeah, sorry another one of these. But my computers decided to be a jerk and it randomly skips words and like moves the cursor in to make me type other things and basically it's being a pain in the butt. Gah it's driving me nuts. If there are any errors, feel free to let me know! Until next time, Jade.
