Thank you for all the wonderful reveiws. It is always nice to know that people are reading. Thank you for sticking with this story and with me. I hope you will be patient in the next week when I go through finals and I won't be able to update as frequently. But then it is summer and we will see where that takes us. I hope you enjoy. Let me know what you think. Happy reading!

Rachel, Finn, Dayton and Briella were walking into the restaurant when they heard, "Over here!" They all looked up to see Puck waving at them frantically trying to get their attention.

The four of them walked over to the table. Finn pulled out Rachel's chair and leaned down to kiss her head when she sat down. Rachel said, "Hello Noah. Quinn, it's nice to see you." She was determined not to ruin the evening and she really wanted her friend back.

Puck said, "Hey Berry. It's nice to have you back."

Quinn looked up from her daughter who was having a bottle. She simply said, "Hey."

Puck nudged her. She went on to say, "Nice to see you, too."

Finn practically growled, "Stop it."

Quinn just lowered her head without saying a word. Puck asked, "Why aren't the two of you in school?"

Briella smiled, "Christmas break! I get to have my first Christmas soon."

Puck smiled. "Oh, you are going to love it little Bee. Have you ever seen Santa?"

"No."

"We will have to change that then. We are going to take Elle to meet Santa for the first time today. Maybe we can take you and Dayton with us?"

Dayton asked Finn, "Can we go see Santa too, dad?"

Finn looked at Rachel who smiled. She may have been Jewish and didn't celebrate Christmas, but seeing the excitement on the kids' faces made her love the holiday herself. She couldn't wait to get them to experience Hanukah the next year. She knew that Finn would be all for their cultural diversity. She said, "I don't think that would be a problem. I think Santa would love to see two good kids like the two of you."

Dayton started chattering about Santa and Christmas in general.

Finn had finally had his fill of Quinn and the way she was treating Rachel. He was going to put a stop to it. He asked, "Quinn, can I see you outside for a moment?"

Quinn looked up and said, "Elle is in the middle of her bottle."

Puck said, "Give me our daughter. She can finish her bottle just as easy in my arms as she could in yours. Go talk to Finn." Puck held his daughter while Quinn walked out with Finn.

Rachel just sat there because she knew they were going to talk about her. She should have known that she was going to cause a lot of problems with the trio that had known each other for years

Finn and Quinn got outside the restaurant. He asked, "What is your problem? Come on Quinn. Rachel is trying to make progress. She feels awful for the way that things happened. She was scared because of what she thought she was going through and all the stress of trying to find a job. The least you could do is try to forgive her. I mean at least talk to her. She has two friends and that is you and Santana. I need at least one of her friends to be on my side and I'm not sure if that is Santana. She has had a hard life and you aren't making things any easier for her. She has hardly anyone on her side. I need you and Puck to be there for her. I don't want the one girl that I love to feel like she doesn't belong. I can't lose her again."

"Finn, she kicked you out of her house. She yelled at both of us."

"She thought she was pregnant! She was freaking out. She was really thinking that she was pregnant and she was worried that I would leave her like that Jesse guy did."

"You wouldn't have done that."

"You and I both know that, but she has been through that before. She was scared."

"I guess I can get that. I'm sorry. I am, but it isn't easy for me to trust anyone."

"I know. Macie was your best friend. She didn't just leave me and Day, but she left you, too. Rach isn't Macie. She is so much better. I know you can see that. Rachel wouldn't leave us unless she absolutely had to. We love each other. We are getting married."

"You are what?"

"We're getting married on Valentine's Day. I want you to be there and support us. Rachel wants you to stand up with her, Santana and Brie. She is afraid that you hate her and won't stand with her. I want you to stand with her, too. I want one of my best friends to be there."

"Wow. She is really wonderful. It's going to take a bit to get back to where I thought we were, but I wouldn't miss your wedding for anything. I'm sorry for the way that I'm acting, but you and Dayton mean so much to me. Finn, you were my first boyfriend. You mean the world to me. I want what is the very best for you and my godson."

"Quinn that is Rachel. She is wonderful with Dayton. I love her so much. You mean so much to me, too. You were my first love. I'm not going to lie. You and Puck are my best friends, but Rachel is my soul mate. I thought that was Macie, but she was just a stepping stone to get me to Rachel. Had it not been for Macie and Jesse we wouldn't have found each other because we wouldn't have our amazing kids."

"I'm glad you can look at it that way now. For a while I didn't think you were ever going to get out of the funk that Macie left you in."

"It took a while, but now I'm glad she left me. There is no way that the two of us would have ever made it. We were just too different, but she gave me the very best gift anyone ever could."

"Dayton is a wonderful little boy."

"He really is. That is because of you and Puck being there for me through it all. I will never be able to thank you both for what you have done."

"You don't have to thank us. I just expect you to be there for Elle when she needs someone other than Puck and I."

"Of course. I wouldn't want anyone else to be there for my goddaughter. I know Rachel will be there for her, too."

"I'm glad she is going to have the two of you. I really am happy for you, Finn. Let's get back to them."

"I think that sounds wonderful. I don't want to miss a minute with my lady."

Quinn laughed. "You are too much."

The two of them walked back in the restaurant to see Rachel holding Elle and making faces at her to make her smile.

Rachel looked up with a deer in the head lights look. She said, "Oh, I'm sorry."

Quinn told her, "No, Rachel. You can hold her. She needs to know who her aunt is. I'm sorry I have been so hard on you. I just don't know how to trust people. Normally when I do they just end up hurting me. It has only been Puck, Finn and I. It is hard to let other people in."

"I understand. I acted irrationally. I am not used to having people in my life that care and that I can trust other than Santana. I'm trying to work on it. I understand that I hurt you and I am so sorry. I just hope we can work on it and get back to the way we were."

"I have missed you."

"I missed you, too."

Puck looked at Finn and said, "Aww… Man, look at our girls being civilized."

Finn just chuckled. He reached over and took Elle from Rachel. She just smiled at him. She couldn't wait to see him with their baby someday. She knew they would be the perfect little family.

Rachel had to smile. She was holding Finn's hand while the kids stood in line with Puck to see Santa. Briella was so excited to meet Santa, but once they stood in line she started getting apprehensive. Finn and Rachel watched as Dayton hugged her and told her it was going to be okay.

Rachel looked at Finn and said, "He is going to be a great brother to her. He already is and he doesn't have to be."

"He loves her. I would say if we didn't beat them to the punch they would have ended up together."

Rachel laughed. "Well, we beat them to it and I wouldn't change it for anything."

"We either. Rach, we are going to be the best married couple ever."

Rachel kissed his cheek. "Of course we will."

Dayton and Briella came over with Puck, Quinn and Elle. Finn asked, "How was Santa? Did you tell him what you want for Christmas?"

Puck snickered. Finn looked at him curiously. Briella said, "Santa is nice. We told him what we wanted."

Rachel asked, "What did you tell him, sweetheart?"

"I told him I want a baby sister."

Dayton said, "I told him I want a little brother. He said that was something you and daddy would have to take care of."

Finn and Rachel smiled at each other. Finn got down at their level and said, "After Rach and I get married we will have to see about getting you a little brother or sister. It isn't something we can promise, but we can see what we can do. What if you have a little sister and we can't give you a little brother or the other way around?"

Briella thought for a moment and said, "That would be okay. I would still be bigger so I could still teach them stuff."

Rachel smiled at the caring nature of her little girl.

Dayton said, "I guess that wouldn't be so bad. I could still boss them around because I would be the big brother. Like daddy is with Uncle Kurt." The four adults laughed at him.

Finn said, "Okay. Let's see what else we can get into today."

All of them went off to see what they could find to do with the rest of their day. Rachel and Quinn made headway in getting their relationship back to the way it had been before the whole freak out had happened. They were nowhere close to where they had been, but they were making progress.

Finn and Puck watched and smiled at their girls as they tried to put their differences and other things behind them to make everyone and each other happy. They knew they would be friends again in no time. They were meant to be friends and it would happen again. There was no way that this could stay the same forever.
