Hey! Georgia here with an update of "As You Wish". If you guys want anything done, just say and we'll do it. Also please review our Samcedes fic "Bad news is just good news in disguise" please. *yawn* Oh MAN! I'm so tired. It's been the Queen's Jubilee this weekend so we had cake and burgers and crap and crisps so yeah...and also my best friend is moving to Germany on Wednesday/Thursday so I'm upset D: I live in UK, he's going to Germany, what do you expect? Peace Out! TG101 :-D x

"This is your captain Noah Puckerman speaking. We are expected to land in Virginia at approximately 1600 hours, GPS, weather and snack intake permitting. We can only presume that everyone is here-"

"Noah.." Rachel warned, shoving him lightly.

"Okay, we know that everyone's here and we just have to set some ground rules. If you want a snack or a drink then you have to ask Mommy or I and please, no fighting. Got it Jada and Nick?"

"Yep." they answered quickly, giving each other one last punch for good measure.

"Alright, let's get this show on the road!"


"...we should have arrived by now!" Puck fumed, looking at the long line of traffic that awaited them.

"Daddy, are we there yet? I'm tired and Micah smells funny!" Carmen pouted, shaking her father's shoulder "Can we listen to Disney?"

Rachel groaned, putting her head on the dashboard "Noah, pull over, I need to change Micah and go to the bathroom myself"

"But Rach, we're like...2 hours away."

"Just do it Noah! Look, it's 7 'o clock, we've been travelling for 12 hours and the only reason we've been travelling for so long was because someone decided to drive through Columbus and Pittsburgh. That would have been alright if we A: Weren't on a time limit, B:Didn't have five kids all under the age of 10 with us, C: It wasn't the fourth of July weekend and D: We weren't expected at my Dads' log cabin by the lake 3 hours ago." Rachel explained, getting increasingly frustrated "I'm hungry, Micah's dirty and I'm sure the kids are hungry."

Puck sighed "Fine."


"Gum!" Ava shouted, much to the excitement of their dog, Mouse "Gum, Cappy we're here!"

"Hey Ava! Where are the others?" Hiram smiled, picking his granddaughter up.

"They're comin' soon. Mommy says Daddy doesn't know how to drive so that's why she's forbiddin' him to drive ever ever again and we had to stop in a hotel for the night and I stayed up till 10 and so did Carmen so she's real crabby and so's Micah. Where's Caeser?"

"With Gum I think. He's in the music room so he must be there."

"Hi Daddy. Where's Papa?" Rachel smiled, kissing her father on the cheek.

"I sent Ava to get him and Caeser. I think they're in the music room"


"Gum, can you teach me how to play Disney?" Ava asked, her legs far from the floor "Mommy can kinda play it."

"Sure I can! Which one would you like to learn?"

"The one Jenny plays in Oliver an' Company! You and me together we'll be..."

"Ah! I know which one you're on about...hand me that book of Disney songs and we'll get started."

Ava ran over to the music stand and picked out the Disney song book "Here Gum."

"Thanks Dotty. Now...let me just find the right page..."


"...you and me, just wait and see."

Rachel smiled as she saw the sight before her. Ava was sitting on Hiram's lap whilst he was guiding her hands to the correct keys.


"...I can't do it! It's too hard!" an 8 year old Rachel Berry pouted, on the verge of tears. She stomped her foot and crossed her arms, turning away from the piano "Jus' because Jenny can do it doesn't mean I can!"

Leroy sighed, picking Rachel up and setting her on his lap."Bumble-Bee it isn't all that bad...you just...need to learn."

"I HAVE been learning! I'll never win the talent show!"

"Now Rachel, we talked about his. You gotta give others a chance."

"But if I give others a chance that means I'll never win and I'll lose at everything and that's really bad 'cos I wanna be on Broadway!" she cried, growing more and more upset.

Hiram overheard their conversation and knew immediately what to do. Humming to himself, he got a glass out of the cupboard and filled it with water. Still humming, he made his way to the music room where his husband was trying to console their daughter who was in 'diva temper tantrum mode' as Leroy had put it one time.

"Rachel, do you want me to help?" he asked, kneeling down to her level and handing her the cup "Because I know what you need. A teacher. A really GOOD teacher. And before I became what I am today, I used to be a music teacher."

Rachel looked up, her eyelashes still spiked with tears"You were?"

"Well, I say music teacher, what I really meant was I taught Everett how to play."

"Blaine's older brother?"

Hiram laughed, nodding his head "Yeah Blaine's older brother. Now you finish your drink and then I'll teach you, alright?"

Rachel sniffed, hiccuping "I guess so."


Hiram stirred, yawning as he heard a squeal come from the other room. Guesses were that Micah was awake judging by the time and the squeak of floorboards that could only come from his son in law.

"I'll be back." he whispered to Leroy who just grunted in his sleep.

Slipping into the room, Hiram found Noah, bouncing his daughter's son, making up a lullaby.

"Hey little Micah, don't you scream, otherwise Daddy's gonna have to put your head in a submarine. And if that submarine starts to sink, Daddy's gonna teach you how to wink and if that winking does not work, Mommy's gonna think I'm a total jerk and if I'm a jerk, that'll make you sick, and Daddy'll look like a total-" he was cut off by Hiram's presence.

"Noah." he said, sounding unamused.

"H-Hiram." Puck stammered, still bouncing a wailing Micah "Little dude couldn't sleep and I couldn't think so I made up a song?"

"Right." he accepted, still eyeing him suspiciously.

"Okay, perhaps that wasn't the best song. What would you recommend?"

Hiram looked thoughtful for a few moments "You know, maybe he doesn't want to be sung to, maybe he's hungry? When was his last feed?"

"2 and a half...aw shit." Puck mumbled, mentally smacking himself. He sighed, glancing down at his son who was wailing lightly, sucking on his fingers "Sorry little dude, I never thought of that."


Rachel sighed sleepily, expecting to meet the warmth of her husband's chest. When she rolled into nothingness and earned an annoyed hiss from Caeser for almost crushing him, she realised that Noah wasn't there.

Getting up, she wrapped her robe around her body and headed towards the kitchen, where a soft glow was emitting from the room. Peeking in, she smiled as she noticed Puck burp Micah, singing one of her favourite songs

"...friend in me...you've got a friend in me"

She couldn't help but smile as she watched her husband and month old son interact with one another. She let out a contented sigh, knowing that they were finally a family. And she wouldn't have it any other way.
