Agarza1538; wondered how Quinn/Rachel weren't able to see how they felt don't ask me how EVERYONE including us saw this and they were oblivious!
kiarcheo: wanted more details on the gossip. I gave you a little of the gossip that is happening , but when they return home it will be a media frenzy.

Rachel woke up to the sound of her cell phone. "Stupid phone. " she muttered to herself as she sat up and glanced around disoriented. Following the noise she located her phone at the end of the bed in her purse. She fished it out while clicking the button to answer.
"Hello?" she muttered, stupid wine!
"Good morning Punkin."
"Good morning Daddy." Rachel looked around her hotel room with a squint.
"Sweetheart can you open the door please? We have been ringing the bell for about 10 minutes, you must have had too much to drink last night." he laughed.
Rachel shot up in the bed, instantly regretting it. "Your in New York Daddy?"
"Surprise!" both her dad and daddy shouted in glee.
Rachel groaned then chuckled "Surprise is on you, I am in Rhode Island for the weekend."
"Your kidding me!" Leroy Berry laughed.
"No I am not, I'm sorry daddy. Hold on I will take care of this, would you mind changing your plans and coming up here?"
"No we came to see you, we aren't interrupting anything are we?" he hedged hopefully.
"I don't think your interrupting anything. We would love for you to come up here and enjoy WaterFire with us. Ok head down to the coffee shop and have a snack at the corner, I will call you back in about 10 minutes ok?"
"Sure Punkin we can't wait to see you!" Leroy was relaying the information to Hiram as they hung up the phone.
Rachel called Remington Records and requested a car pick up her parents and drive them up to the Biltmore, requesting to make sure that no one leaked the information. After hanging up with RR she called her dads back quickly and informed them that there would be a car sent to pick them up in about 20 minutes. She hung up the phone can called down to Catarina, only to find out what she was afraid of. There wasn't a room available in the entire damn hotel no matter how much she was willing to pay, and she wasn't about to ruin someone's vacation. Well other then hers and Quinn's. She called room service instead and ordered some bacon monstrosity for Quinn and vegan yogurt and fruit for herself. She hopped in the shower, while she tried to figure out how to fix this damn mess. Ten minutes later she was stepping out of the shower and into the cashmere robe that the hotel provided, enjoying the material as it caressed her. I'll have to make sure I pick up one if these before we leave, she thought. Rachel quickly cleaned the dining room table of the packages from the day before, and placed them onto the floor in the large walk in closet in her room. She was stepping out into the room again when Quinn came out of her room, smiling at Rachel. Quinn was also freshly showered and in a robe. "Good morning Rachel."
"Ditto." Rachel whispered thinking about a very naked Quinn in the shower only minutes before. Damn!
Quinn walked over and kissed Rachel, taking advantage of the glazed over look on Rachel's face. "You seem a little out of it was because of the wine?"
"Well that didn't help, but that isn't the only issue I woke up to." Rachel muttered heading to the door when there was a brief knock at the door. She opened the door and smiled when the sweet redhead came back into the room. "Hello Peyton, it is nice to see you again."
"Miss Berry." she smiled her face lighting up as she pushed the room service cart into the room. "It is always a pleasure to see you." she wasn't able to stop the tears bubbling up in her eyes, though she did manage to keep them from falling.
"Peyton? I have a question there was a Jazz singer last night in the restaurant do you know what her name is?
"Oh sure that is Keiki Maxwell. Keiki and I use to go to school together." Peyton smiled placing the breakfast plates in front of them.
Rachel nodded, then asked her to wait a minute and headed to her bedroom brining out her purse. She fished out her wallet , and took out a card and handed it to Peyton. "Here this is the talent scout for Remington Records, her name is Tina give her a call tell her you met me here and she will set up a session to come and see you both. I assume from our conversation yesterday that you are a theater major but that you also sing?"
Peyton's eyes went even wider, this time she lost the battle on her tears and squealed and jumped up and down. "Oh my god! Thank you thank you so much for giving me this opportunity! This is the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me!" She lost herself in her excitement and hugged Rachel while she jumped around the room. Rachel couldn't fight the smile, and she winked at Quinn. "Ok I should go, enjoy your breakfast. Thank you so much again for everything." Peyton tried to compose herself again, she clutched the card and pushed the cart to the side. "Do you need anything else? Before I leave that is?"
"We will need house keeping here while we are down in the spa. If you could arrange to have that done?"
"Consider it done." Peyton curtsied to Rachel again and headed out of the suite quietly.
"Dare I ask why she keeps doing that ?" Quinn laughed, Rachel blushed, and Quinn still chuckling removed her cover to see her very delicious looking breakfast.
Rachel sent a quick email to Tina about Peyton and Keiki , so that Tina wasn't blind sided. There was a email from her publicists that was insisting that when she was back in town that they needed to get together to decide how they wanted to handle the cluster bomb Rachel had stirred up. "Dare I also ask what has you so wired this morning."
"Yeah about that." Rachel cringed not sure how Quinn was going to deal with her little issue. "So how mad would you be if I had to tell you that our wonderful vacation was about to be hijacked."
"Paparazzi?
"Ah no it's the PapaBerry's" Rachel tried to make a bad joke, still cringing when Quinn just looked over at her. "It seems that they showed up for a surprise visit in NYC, but yeah I am not really in the city. So the surprise was on them."
Quinn laughed, she laughed so hard she actually snorted. "Let me guess the first time you have ever not been home when they dropped in?"
"Yes! They were wondering why I wasn't answering the doorbell, and they came all this way. So looks like they are going to be crashing our vacation."
"Is that all? I thought it was the paparazzi that was crashing the party." Quinn laughed and started eating her breakfast again.
"Yeah not so much, I called down to Catarina and short of ruining someone's vacation and kicking them out of their room, the Biltmore is booked solid. I called a few other hotels but no luck."
"Your not going to ask your fathers to stay at another hotel." Quinn grinned now seeing the dilemma. "We can share a room, not a big deal. Lets eat breakfast and I can move my stuff to your room. I mean that was the issue right? We are adults I am sure we can share a bed with out compromising our agreement."
Rachel swallowed and nodded her head I am so screwed! She thought to herself and tried to nip at her breakfast.
"What would you like to do today?" Quinn asked as she watched Rachel out of the corner of her eye.
"I don't know, I have no real plans. Would you like to plan the day? We have the spa appointment at 11, I wanted to get in a work out before that , and the Dads should be here around noon."
"Ok I will plan the rest of our day, if you don't mind starting with lunch." Quinn smiled and watched Rachel visibly relax. "Anything that I might need to take in consideration? Relativity healthy and no allergies, or food preferences?"
"No I am the picky one, as long as it is kosher there should be no problems both healthy and quite advantageous, so no worries." Rachel laughed, deciding to just relax a little and stop worrying and planning everything to death.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ }|{~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rachel looked over at Quinn as they finished dressing from their spa rendezvous. Quinn had skipped the workout and meeting up with her about and hour and half ago to keep their spa appointment.
"I haven't been this relaxed in years!" Quinn laughed.
" I know what you mean!" Rachel admitted, leaning over and placing a kiss to Quinn's shoulder before she slipped the light weight pink cotton shirt over head. She paired it with a pair of linen tailored shorts that showed off her legs and a pair of 3 inch platform KHAB strappy sandals. Quinn was also wearing a pair of shorts and a Stella McCartney yoga top and a pair of all white adidas adistar ride shoes. They looked like polar opposites and Rachel found this funny, as usual.
"Oh stop laughing they say that opposites attract!" Quinn laughed and tugged Rachel in for a quick kiss. "Lets hurry your dad's will be here shortly. Quinn grabbed her messenger bag and handed Rachel her purse. The headed to the lobby to meet with the Berry men. Catarina met them on their way to the door. She handed Quinn a piece of paper, smiled and bid them a good day.
"Next time we come and visit we are getting that 'rescue me package' . Rachel muttered. Looping their arms together.
"Like either one of us could sit there for 4 hours." Quinn scoffed, quickly placing them in the same pie piece of the revolving door and heading outside.
A sleek Mercedes S400 hybrid sedan pulled to the curb about 10 minutes later . Leroy was quick to jump out of the back seat and excitedly rushing Rachel tossing her in the air. "Baby girl!" he twirled her as if she was still 6 years old.
"Hi Daddy! I am so happy to see you! What a nice surprise!" she held on to him tightly kissing his cheek. Leroy finally placed Rachel on her feet and smiled over at Quinn.
"Hello Quinn, it has been years since we have seen you, you look good." he hugged her as well slightly more subdued. "Our condolences for you loss."
"Thank you Mr. Berry." Quinn returned Leroy's embraced, more firmly then she would have done 8 years ago because she knew it was sincere, and she wasn't the same person she was. "It is really so nice to see you again."
"Dad stop worrying about the bags and give me a damn hug!" Rachel huffed at her tall father who looked sheepishly at having been caught micro managing the hotel staff. He quickly pulled Rachel into his arms and twirled her around out doing even his husbands embrace. "Much better!" she giggled kissing him on the cheek and once she was firmly on her feet she grabbed her Daddy's hand.
"Quinn, its been 8 years too many since I have seen your beautiful smile." he said charmingly pulling her into a fierce hug. Quinn remembers all three of them crying holding on to one another as Rachel left the train platform on her way to NY.
"It has indeed Dr. Berry. I am so glad to see you again, and on happy terms. This is the best surprise." Quinn looped her arm into his and all four of them headed into the hotel together.
"Quinn I think we should be on a first name basis at this point don't you think?" Leroy laughed as they passed the people watching them in the lobby.
Quinn grinned looked over at Rachel who was RB Megawatt-ing it at anyone she caught staring at them. "Yes, I would really like that." she was following suite with Rachel so she missed the wink between the two Berry men.
"Our Bags? Wait girls don't we have to check in?" Hiram looked over at Rachel in confusion.
"No your staying in our room, apparently with it being peak season they are quite booked." Rachel lead the way to the glass elevator, speaking in quiet tones to Leroy about the history of the hotel,
"Well we don't want to infringe on you girls, we can stay at another hotel. " Hiram insisted.
"Rachel has worked it all out and has taken care of it. Please don't upset her plans." Quinn whispered in conspiracy. "We have plenty room in the suite and she is happy. "
Hiram smirked. "If she's happy then we're happy." he winked
"Exactly!" she laughed.
"Do not think for one second that I don't know you two are talking about me. But I have matured considerably over the years and I am just going to pretend that you are also both adults and wouldn't be so crass." Rachel said haughtily
Quinn burst of laughing and muttering about "Old habits!"
After the Berry men settled into their half of the hotel suite, Quinn led the way back down to the lobby. "So Rachel has allowed me to plan our day." she smile and nodded a the men and their matching expressions. "I know, I was just as surprised." she chucked and leaned over and kissed Rachel on the cheek noticing the blush on her face as she shot her a shocked look. "Are you gentlemen hungry?" when they nodded she smiled. "I figured that, so please excuse the upcoming car ride, I know that you just had a long ride, but it will be worth it I promise."
When they stepped outside the valet had Rachel's car at the curb already. "Is it alright if I drive your little hybrid?" Quinn whispered.
Rachel smiled "Of course I don't know where we are going, it would be best if you drove." Quinn helped Rachel into the car and shut the door then going around the front slipped into drivers side.
"She is in charge of the tunes, so you are at her mercy." Quinn warned the Berry men, as they pulled away from the curb.
"Aren't we always." Leroy laughed reached out for his husbands hand and squeezed it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ }|{~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They had a nice lunch at a family restaurant that Quinn had called ahead to ensure they had both Kosher and Vegan food. Then they were heading further east. Making light conversation about what was happening in Ohio. Rachel hadn't brought up the theater yet and Quinn wasn't sure why, it had been all they could talk about. She had the distinct feeling that her fathers were out of the loop on this one. At a little after 2 they pulled into Bannister's Wharf, in Newport. She looked into the back seat and smiled knowing how much both the Berry men loved to sail.
"Quinn!" Rachel was so excited that she forgot her dads in the back seat and leaned over and planted a sound kiss on the blonde's lips. "Wow what a great surprise!" she looked back with a guilty look at her dad's who raised a brow in her directions. "Sorry I forgot you were back there!" she laughed and couldn't hide her giggle when Quinn came around and opened her door, leaping out of the car and giving the girl an excited hug. Only to then bombard her with a million questions, the Berry men followed a safe distance behind them they were watching the couple in front of them. Taking all the docked ships in the wharf, and the general atmosphere at the wharf.
Once they were out on the water on the Madeleine on a tour with Classic Cruises of Newport, the Madeleine was a beautiful a 72-foot schooner sailing yacht. That would take them all over the Newport Harbor and Narragansett Bay. The real treat was that there was only one other group of 10 people on the tour. The four of them truly enjoyed being out on the open water, looking at the beautiful homes that were located on Shore of Newport and the surrounding areas. They took pictures, drank champagne and mingled with the other tour group. They walked and window shopped for a few hours in Newport. Each doing a little souvenir shopping while they were there.
"I love these houses, and it is so peaceful here, can't you see yourself living here?" Rachel said dreamily .
"No I live in New York and so do you." Quinn reminded her then leaned in. "And we are in the middle of construction on your new apartment in New York in case you have forgotten."
"No I haven't forgotten. I appreciate you not bringing that up yet. If you could hold off on this visit I would appreciate it. I was planning brining it up when I visited during the holidays when I had more accomplished."
"It's your call, just don't close them out they are very supportive, loving and caring. You are very lucky to have them."
"Your right I am. They are the best parents that someone could ever ask for. But they worry and there is no need to make them worry unnecessarily. After all I am in your hands no need to worry."
"Ok you two that is enough with the whispering sweet nothings in one another's ears. " Leroy laughed and then wrapped an arm around Quinn as Hiram did the same with Rachel and the headed back to the car.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ }|{~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Quinn could you come here for a minute?" Rachel called out from the bathroom in their bedroom. When Quinn came around the corner Rachel launched herself into Quinn's arms. "Kiss me, Fabray."
"Yes Queen Berry." Quinn whispered set Rachel on the counter and then ground their lips together passionately, causing Rachel to moan. " I love that sound."
"I've missed doing this all day!" Rachel muttered fisting Quinn' s hair and pulling her closer as her legs tightened around Quinn's waist. "I just can't get enough of you." she whispered peppering kisses all over Quinn's jaw line until she got to Quinn's ear. "And you have been driving me nuts, with your teasing!"
"Says the girl in the fitted two inch shorts" Quinn groaned using the arms that she wrapped abound the diva to pull them closer so that their bodies were sealed as one. The both moaned, the sound muffed by their lips finding one another again. Quinn ran her hand under Rachel's cotton top and pulled it over her head, getting it tangled between there joined faces. "Damn!" she muttered pulling away for a fraction to rip it over the divas head completely, then leaned in and kissed her again trailing kisses across her chin down her throat, peppering them on her collarbones between the valley of her vivacious breasts incased in silk and lace. "God your breathtaking Rachel." she whispered, placing kisses on the tops of each breast. Quinn smirked when Rachel Arched her body into her touch, and purred. "And so responsive, my little Kitten." Quinn opened her mouth and placed a hot open mouth kiss on Rachel's hardened nipple, her own eyes closing in bliss as Rachel scorched her with 8 perfectly manicured finger nails on the middle of her back, not remembering when she had lost her own shirt. Quinn ran her hand up into Rachel's hair and pulled down to force Rachel into a deeper arch and latched onto the other breast to place an equally hot kiss on the other straining nipple.
"Oh god Quinn! That feels so good!" her entire body was shivering, moisture between her thighs was beginning to overwhelm the thin material of her panties and all they were doing was kissing. "I love the way you feel against me, but I love more what you make me feel." She raked her fingers down Quinn's back, loving the sound of deep intake of breath in between clenched teeth. She ran her tongue down the dip between Quinn's superb twin peeks, using her hands to quickly move the material so that she was able to suck on first one nipple and then the other without the material hindering her mission.
"Rachel!" Quinn groaned and screeched at the same time, slumping into the counter as her knees began to quake. "Oh my god we have to stop ! Your dads!"
"I am an adult, they know I am not a child!" She whispered fiercely sucking on Quinn's nipple, while she pinched the other with her fingers teasing the taunt silky skin.
"Ok that may-y-y, oh God!" Quinn lost herself in to the feel of magical hands. "But um, what about taking it, Ohh lord!" she shivered when Rachel grabbed her ass with her other hand. "Oh forget it!" she whimpered, as Rachel scooted to the edge of the counter and rubbed herself against her exposed skin.
"That is a good little Bunny" Rachel whispered rocking forward when Quinn slipped a hand between them and rubbed the wet material between Rachel's thighs. "Arghhh" she softly shouted, in her shocked excitement she lost her connection to Quinn's nipple, which Quinn took advantage of and sealed their lips together twisting their tongues together as they twisted in their battle of ascendancy.
"Hey Girls! If we are leaving for dinner on time we need to leave in 10 minutes!" Leroy's voice said from somewhere in the suite, both girls groaned and pulled apart.
"Merde! I got the Pinks!" Rachel groaned again and slipped off the counter.
"The Pinks?" Quinn questioned heading out to find something to wear.
"Yeah it what I call my sexual frustration, you know like Blue Balls for girls." Rachel shrugged her shoulders and blushed a little.
"Oh!" Quinn chuckled. "Your not the only one with 'the pinks' then."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ }|{~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Quinn and Rachel made a mad dash around the room after a quick wash up session in the bathroom that almost got them into more trouble. They tossed on contrasting maxi dresses. Quinn's was a pale yellow that she paired with the same shoes from QoH that she wore the night before. While Rachel wore a deep purple dress and matched it with a pair of tan strapy three inch heeled shoes. They both had their hair pulled back in a sleek wraparound ponytail with a high front poof.
"You two look lovely." Hiram announced when they all met up in the living room , they were going to be late, but not too late.
"You guys look very handsome." Quinn countered as Rachel kissed both her dads on the cheek. Then they headed down to the restaurant. Where they had a second encounter with the mater 'd.
"Table for four Horace, reservations for 1815, and yes we know we are slightly late." Rachel smiled her megawatt smile, and batted her lashes.
His tone still snotty was very subdued. "Yes Ms. Berry please follow me." he led the way to a table on the ground floor , that was tucked into a corner, but also came with a curtain. "Blithe will be with you in a moment, shall I request a bottle of wine be brought up for you?"
"Yes, thank you." Rachel smiled and opened the wine menu. "Dad, look at that they have the Chardonnay that you love Drouhin Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche."
"Don't be ridiculous." Hiram said fiercely whispered to Rachel, a blush flushing his face.
Rachel smiled over at Horace. "Please have a bottle brought up, and place another on ice for later."
"Any vintage in particular?" Horace deadpanned with lifeless eyes.
Rachel didn't know why she liked this obnoxious man but she did, there was something that reminded her of one of her old teachers from NYADA. "How about 1988, it's a memorable year." Rachel winked at her fathers, as Leroy blushed. Which quickly turned into a gasp when he glanced at the wine menu as glanced at the price and shook his head at her. "Yes that is the vintage we would prefer, thank you Horace." she watched him leave, trying to ignore that her fathers were furious at her. "I do so hope that Keiki is performing this evening. You're in for quite a treat the woman has the most amazing and unique voice." she turned to Quinn who was looking around the table trying to figure out why the Berry men where so upset. "Don't you agree Quinn?"
"Yes very nice voice. " she agreed as the two men where fuming, but seemed to realize that Rachel was in her stubborn mind and that there was no point in trying to reason with her. "So tell me how are things at the hospital and social service sectors in Ohio." Rachel squeezed her hand under the table and looked over her menu as Quinn smoothly changed the subject to the two men's passions.
The little bubbly blonde from last night carrying the Berry coveted bottle of wine, they all watched as Hiram went through the testing of the wine, swirling the liquid in the wine glass, being a white wine he skipped the 'breathing' stage. They placed their order and Blithe smiled and took her leave. Rachel stood quickly to follow, making a quiet mention of using the facilities. She rushed to follow Blithe, she was quite quick on her feet. "Blithe!" she called after the girl who turned and smiled.
"Yes Miss. Berry?"
"I was wondering if I could put in a request if Keiki will be performing." Rachel inquired smiling at the little blonde.
"Yes and she would be honored." Blithe smiled and wrote down the song that Rachel requested and went on her way. Rachel took a moment in the hidden hallway where the restrooms where and then went back to the table.
Their food hadn't yet arrived when Keiki and the band finished up their second song I'd rather go blind. Keiki smiled at the crowd as they clapped and the few couples including Quinn and Rachel stopped dancing on the floor. "We have had a request from one our guests this evening. I have to tell you that I am so honored to be part of a celebration of a love that is still going strong after 30 years." with that being said the beginning cords of Rachel requested song began.
The flowers you gave me
Are just about to die
When I think about
What could've been
It makes me want to cry
"Who would request this song to reflect 30 years of marriage?" Quinn demanded disgusted, having pulled Rachel in her arms swaying to the music.
Rachel laughed, playing with Quinn's hair as they moved to the music. "It was the song on the radio the first time they kissed." she whispered nodding her head in the direction of her dads as they made their way to the dance floor.
The sweet words you whispered
Didn't mean a thing
I guess our song is over
As we begin to sing
Quinn watched the Berry men come to the dance floor Hiram wiping away a tear from Leroy when he pulled him into his arms. "I stand corrected, it's the perfect song. You are so romantic Kitten." she kissed Rachel sweetly and held her a little tighter as they swayed.
Could've been so beautiful
Could've been so right
Could've been my lover
Every day of my life
Could've been so beautiful
Could've been so right
I'll never hold what could've been
On a cold and lonely night
Leroy laid his chest on his husbands chest. "Your daughter gets this romantic crap from you Casanova." he whispered.
"I think she gets it from both of us. I love you, Leroy more then I did on that fateful night in 1988, though at the time I didn't think it was possible." Hiram pulled him closer as they danced to the song that brought them together so long ago.
The memories of our lovin'
Still linger in the air
Like the faded scent of your roses
They stay with me everywhere
Every time I get my hopes up
They always seem to fall
Still what could've been is better than
What could never be at all

"So Quinn tell us what WaterFire is?" Hiram asked as they left the hotel heading towards Memorial Boulevard.
"It's hard to describe. It is a bit of everything for anyone who loves art and music, or is romantic."
"So basically it is right up all our alleys!" Leroy laughed leaning over to place a kiss on top of Rachel's head. Quinn nodded in agreement, as they walked the 6 minutes through the growing crowd. They had missed the lighting of the first few torch barges in the middle of the Woonasquatucket river, but there were still so many to go.
Rachel took in the sight it was beautiful the skies were beginning to darken there was beautiful classical music being piped in from an unknown source. There were people strolling around enjoying the atmosphere, their were gondola rides on the river that was now lit up with fire torches in the middle of the river. Rachel could smell food being made from many different cultures. She could hear a rowdy band starting up a block down, and near the bridge a woman was dressed in period costume as she recited a beautiful poem. "This is amazing! Thank you so much Quinn." Rachel wrapped her arms around Quinn and pulled her down for a kiss. "You are so irresistible." she whispered when they came back up for air.
"A kiss is only a moment, but that moment forever lasts in your soul." Quinn whispered against Rachel's ear pulling her to where she had asked Catarina to have someone set up a blanket, fruit and a bottle of champagne, on one of the grass area up against the river.
"Wow, is this for us?" Rachel' s eyes were wide with wonder, when she looked up for confirmation.
"Yes, I figure we can sit here and let our dinner settle watching the festivities before we go on to other more lively festivities. Where we can dance and sing until our hearts are content." Quinn smiled and led the Berry's to the blanket. It was nice to see that is was Peyton and the young Bellhop that where waiting on them.
"Ms. Fabray everything is all set. " Peyton smiled she was dressed in a lively sequined dress. "If you no longer require us we will have to go set up our booth."
"No not at all, are you performing this evening?" Quinn asked as the four of them settled onto the blanket. Hiram popped the cork on the champagne , as Leroy handed everyone a glass.
"Yes Rory and I are going to set up a booth and perform across the river." she pointed "right there at the corner of Memorial and Exchange."
"We will be sure to stop by." Rachel smiled genuinely and nodded at the pair, as they began to gather their bags. "Break a leg!" they quickly bowed and curtsied in their direction and hurried off.
"Will someone explain that to me?" Quinn laughed, even harder when Rachel blushed and the Berry men shrugged their shoulders. She raised her glass the others following suit. "To Queen Rachel, Long live the Queen!"
