Alright-so here it is! The new chapter's up!
Warning- there is some foul language used, so be warned.
Disclaimer- I seemed to have missed this before, but this goes for the whole story. I don't own glee… Sadly…but I do worship it! (:
Enjoy!

"What?" Quinn said. "You think that Ms. Corcoran is you MOM? I mean, come on, Rach. How would that even work out?"
"Quinn. Just listen!" Rachel said anxiousness evident in her voice. "I know it's her. Haven't you noticed the way that she always looks at me? I always thought it was because of my talent, but it's because I'm her daughter! Did you seriously not see that when Brit asked about who the song was for she was looking at ME!"
Quinn listened carefully to what Rachel was saying. As she was speaking, the realization of it all was just dawning upon her. "Rach," She began, "I think you're right."

"Will, do you think she knows? Was this too obvious?" A frantic Shelby asked her boyfriend Will in his apartment.
"Look, Shelby, I-"Will began, but was cut off again by his Girlfriends (God, he loved the sound of that) ranting. "Shelby," He tried again, but failed, "SHELBY!" he finally screamed, getting her attention, "Look, Shelb, I don't know if Rachel knows, but she might. I mean, you just told me that you left Rachel a CD of you singing the song you did in Glee club, and if anyone knows perfect pitch, it's Rachel. She must have realized that they were both the same person." he finished his little rant to see Shelby messing with the sheets on the bed. She was really quiet for a long time, but he could tell she was really busy in her mind. Will could practically see the gears running through her head.
"Shelby," Will quietly asked. "Are you going to be OK?" She didn't answer for a long time. Will was just holding her and caressing her hair and cheeks, because I didn't know what else to do.
"I-I don't know." She softly said, finally answering the question. He knew what the next thing he wanted to do was, but he wasn't sure if she was ready, but before he could change his mind, his mouth opened.
"Maybe you should stay here tonight. Or longer if you need to, or I could even go to your place. Just so you're not..ya know…alone.." He trailed off, looking down. Shelby's head came up and she gave a small smile and a chaste kiss on his lips.
"Thank you, Will. That really means a lot to me. And, yes, I would like that."
"So it's settled," Will thought, "we're moving in together." Oh yeah…

"Rach, when are you going to tell her?" Quinn asked as they were walking to their lockers together the next morning for school.
"Today, I guess. After Glee." She responded.
"Alright, well we still have some time before class, so let's just chat, K?"
"Sure, Q" Rachel responded.
"So, Rach, how's life?" Quinn pondered out loud.
"Pretty good. And Quinn. You can't tell anyone about my Dad's, OK? I know it's been almost a year, but the Government's fine with me living alone, I just don't want anyone else to know. Just you, Noah, Finn, and Ms. Pillsberry, that's it because if Ms. Corcoran's really my Mom, maybe I'll go live with her. Who knows." Rachel told her friend. (A/N: I promise you guys will get an explanation later!)
GLEE
"Will, do you think I should talk to her, or let her come to me?" Shelby asked Will during their lunch period.
"I think you should let her come to you, wait until she's ready. Until she's prepared. Rejection or any hard emotional pain from her Mother is going to kill her. She wants to find out who her Mom is so bad, every year on Mother's day, she's like a total numb statue!" As soon as she heard the part about Mothers day, Shelby went stiff. "Is everything OK babe?" Will asked, getting concerned for his already emotionally unstable girlfriend.
"Yeah, I'm OK. I think I'm just going for a walk around school. I'm done with my classes today. I'll see you at Glee." She said.
"Alright" Will replied giving her a kiss before she left. "I love you, Shelby, you know that, right? I'd do anything for you, babe, anything." That was one of the first times they had ever said that to each other. It surprised Shelby, but she turned around and pressed her lips to his.
"I love you too, Will. And thank you. For everything. You don't know how much this all means to me." And with that she left the room.
GLEE
"Ms. Corcoran?" Rachel called, entering into her teacher's (or Mothers) office.
"Oh, um, Hi Rachel, how can I help you?" Shelby said, caught off guard. Was this the time to tell her?
"Um, I uh, I had something that I wanted to talk to you about…In private." She added.
"Oh, well, of course. Um, I'm a little busy right now, but how about during 4th period? Does that work for you?" Shelby slowly said.
"Yeah, of course, Ms. Corcoran, where should I meet you?" Rachel was a bit disappointed in this, she wanted to figure out if Ms. Corcoran was her Mother or not.
"How about the auditorium, Glee is after 4th period and we'll be in there today, so it might just be easier for us." Shelby also wanted to tell Rachel soon, but she had to keep her distance, after all, what would Rachel's fathers say?
"Sure. I'll see you then, I guess." Rachel said exiting the room, a ghost of a smile on her face.

-Rachel's POV-
I was on her way to the auditorium to see Ms. Corcoran when I heard my name being called from down the hall. I turned around to see who it was, but there was no one in the hallway except for me. I kept on walking, but then I heard my name again. This time when I turned around, she saw Karofsky, Azimio and the rest of the football gang- excluding the Glee boys- coming up to her. They didn't have slushies in their hands, so I didn't really know what to do. I just kept on walking until I felt a cold hand on my shoulder, than another one around my ribcage. I was so stunned and terrified that I dropped everything in my hands, and slowly turned around, hoping this was all just a bad dream. I turned and faced the boys, who all had devil-ish smirks on their faces.
"'Sup Manhands?" one of the boys said.
"Wh-what are you guys doing?" I asked, my voice covered in fear.
"Oh, nothin'…just teaching all you little Glee nerds where your places are in the social pyramid, and we're starting with you." Azimio said, aggressively shoving me against the lockers. As soon as I hit them, I felt the cold metal seeping through the light sweater I was wearing today. I slumped down, only to be picked back up again by Karofsky.
"You know what, bitch. You're never going to make it. You know why; it's because you and your stupid singing group aren't the 'New Directions' because you're not going anywhere but down." And with that, he literally threw me to the other side of the hallway.
I remember feeling a horrible pain in my head as I hit one of the locks on my locker, than a defining *crack!* as my body fell onto the ground. From then on, I tried to get Karofsky's words out of my head, and concentrate on giving my energy to other places, and thinking happy thoughts, but the only things I could think of was how I was going to be late to see Ms. Corcoran. I felt my body get hit against the lockers again and I looked down to see that my white sweater was covered in red and there was red all around the floor. I looked up, trying to get my mouth to say something, anything! When I got lifted up again and thrown into the lockers. That was the last thing that I remembered before blanking out.
GLEE
-Shelby POV-
I was walking to the auditorium to go see Rachel. I've decided that I'm going to tell her today, and I think she might have known. I mean, after I sang that song, I think she pretty much got it. I started humming a melody of songs as I walked. Suddenly, I heard the sound of fast footsteps and then a door opening and closing. It must be a student going somewhere I thought. I turned in the hall and continued my path to the auditorium. I looked down to see faint red smudges on the ground it looked a little like blood, but I just told myself it must have been a red slushy. As I continued down the hall, there were red spots on the lockers too. I started to get a bit scared, but I carried on anyways, the thought of being with my Daughter clearing all thoughts of fear. I heard someone whimpering in another classroom. I looked at my watch and saw I still had time before I said I'd meet Rachel, so I cautiously stepped inside, not wanting to intrude on a make-out session, but I got the exact opposite. I opened the door to see the worst sight of my life.
There was Rachel. Lying on the floor, not moving at all, her body covered in red, and it was getting darker. I rushed up to her, picking her up and cradling her against my chest. I quickly grabbed my phone calling Will and hysterically demanding he come, because I couldn't handle this right now. He said he would call 911, since I was too shaken to do it.
I held my baby close to me, praying to god that she didn't die, I couldn't lose her again, I loved her too much.
I don't know how much later Will walked in, panting from running, with Puck behind him. Everyone was quiet, then we heard the ambulance sirens. Puck came and took Rachel from my hands, kissing her delicate face softly then praying to god. The EMT's came in and took Rachel on a gurney, I was holding her hand, and Will and Puck were behind us. Then as we got loaded into the back of the ambulance, I heard her say one thing.
"Mommy, don't leave me again." It was soft, but I could hear it. We all could. My eyes filled with tears, but I was able to choke out an answer.
"I won't baby, you're my little star. I'm not leaving you again."
Rachel smiled softly, the anesthesia in her IV Drip starting to take an effect. Puck was on her other side, holding her hand. She squeezed it, then fell unconscious.
Dun, dun, DAA!
Bet 'cha didn't see that coming! Did ya? Ha!
I mean, unless you saw it coming, then yeah…
Anyways, I hoped you guys liked it! I didn't know where to go with this story, but then I kind of came up with this…so yeah.
Ok, so is it too much to ask for 3 reviews before the next one is up?
Thanks SO MUCH once again for reading my story! You guys are the best! :D
