It has been a few weeks since Holly's birthday, things have been going well for the family, and Holly now calls Santana and Quinn Mama and Mom all the time. She loves having a family even if she sometimes gets frustrated going from a parent that never cared to two that are watching your every move and having a little sister that wants to be where ever you are but she wouldn't change it for the world.

Quinn is sat in her office when her phone rings "Hello…yes this is she…really…no it's no problem I'll be straight there" she says hanging up she rings Santana and tells her to meet her at Holly's school, they meet outside in the car park.

"Babe, do you know what this is about?" Santana asks.

"Something about a fight, is all I heard San it's not like Holly to get into fights is it?"

Santana sighs "To be honest Quinn not since she has been with us but we don't know about before."

They both head in once they get to the office they can see Holly sat outside on a chair arms folded across her chest and slouched down, they both walk over Quinn bends down to her "Baby are you ok?" she asks.

Holly looks up she knew the school was ringing her parents but didn't expect to see them both "Um hey um I got in some trouble" she says quietly.

"We can see that babe what happened?" Santana asks.

"If you would like to come with me I can explain" the principle says, stood in the door way, all three get up and follow him in "Please take a seat, and I will explain as to why you are here" Santana, Quinn and Holly take a seat, Holly sits in between both her parents.

"Ok I would like to start by saying it has been a fair few months since Holly has been in my office and I have been very impressed with her behaviour but unfortunately today we seem to have reverted back to our old ways."

Quinn and Santana both look at their daughter who keeps her head down "To be honest Mr Davis we were not aware Holly had problems in school before she came to live with us apparently nobody felt the need to tell us" Santana says quite abruptly.

"I'm sorry Mrs Lopez I wasn't aware you had not been informed, you should have had a meeting with Holly's teacher when she first came to you and I will look into why that didn't happen, but I'm more concerned about what has happened today."

"Ok so what has happened today?"

"I can't tell you why it started or how because Holly has not said a word since the incident but basically Holly had to be pulled off another student, she had hit the other girl a few times and then had her pinned to the floor when another staff member pulled her off."

Santana and Quinn look at each other then down to Holly they know that's not like her "Baby why did you hit the girl?" Holly shrugs "That is not an answer and you know it" Santana says sternly.

"Because she is a silly bitch that's why" she snaps.

Quinn glares at her daughter "That's enough of that don't you think you are in enough trouble now answer the question."

"What does it matter he" she says pointing to the principle "won't believe me and you guys won't believe me so just tell me what my punishment is so I can go home" she says tears forming in her eyes.

Mr Davis looks down at Holly all the years he has known her and the trouble she has been in, in the past he has never seen her upset "Holly if you tell me the truth I will have no reason not to believe you please tell us what is going on."

"I have just been getting some hassle that's all, its nothing I can't handle."

Quinn puts her hand on Holly's knee "Baby we don't want you to handle it on your own especially with your fists now come on what has been happening?"

"A few of the older girls have been picking on me, calling me an orphan and saying I'm going to end up like my Mom. They have been pushing me every time they walk past me, knocking my books out of my hand or pushing me into lockers I just had enough today I'm sorry I really am" she says tears falling down her face.

"Holly, why didn't you come to us?" Santana asks.

Holly shakes her head "What so I could have my Mommies come up the school that would just make it worse, I tried telling a teacher and she asked the girls who obviously denied it then they started getting at me more because I told and now it's going to be worse again."

"I assure you Holly it won't, I'm going to get to the bottom of this I will not have one of my students bullied especially by girls older than you, I know you are not going to want to but Holly I'm going to need their names" Mr Davis asks.

Holly looks at Santana and Quinn who both nod to her to tell him "It's the cheerleaders not just one or two but all of them" she says quietly.

"Thank you Holly I promise this will be dealt with today."

Santana smiles "Thank you, so what happens about Holly for her part in today?"

"Obviously Holly has been provoked but as you know, we have zero tolerance on fighting so I have no choice but to lay down a suspension normally it would have been five days but because of the nature of it we will just say the rest of the week so that's the rest of today, tomorrow and Friday, I will need one or both of you to come into school Monday with Holly to do a return to school form and I can inform you on how everything has been dealt with."

Quinn nods "No problem thank you for your help and we shall see you Monday" she says standing up and shaking his hand.

Santana holds her hand out to Holly "Come on sweetie let's get your stuff and get home."

Once they arrive home, Holly tries to make a break for her bedroom "Come back here please Holly" Quinn says softly.

Holly slowly walks over covering her bottom with her hands "Mom I'm sorry" she says.

"We know babe come and sit down and talk to us for a minute" she says pulling her into a hug.

Holly slowly walks to the kitchen where Santana is sat, not wanting to give her eye contact "Mama I'm really sorry" she says quietly.

Santana calls her over and pulls her onto her lap "We know you are baby girl, look Mom and I just want to talk to you ok?"

"So I'm not in trouble?"

Santana sighs "Maybe a little babe, you are suspended from school we do understand that you have been dealing with a lot though, you know you can always come to us Holly that's what we are here for."

"But I didn't want you to think I was weak I wanted to deal with it myself, I didn't mean to get suspended I just wasn't thinking."

Quinn sits down in front of them both "We would never ever think you are weak Holly, being bullied doesn't make you weak but you have to promise us if it happens again, you will talk to us instead of keeping it all bottled up."

"I will Mom I promise so how much trouble am I in?" she asks.

Santana thinks for a minute "Look Mom and I need to talk for a minute why don't you head upstairs and tidy your room like you were supposed to do yesterday" she says with a playful nudge.

"Mama" Holly whines.

"Don't Mama me, go on we will call you down when we have finished talking."

Holly gets up off Santana's lap and heads upstairs, Quinn walks over and takes Holly's place "What you thinking then babe?"

"I'm thinking you're heavier than Holly" she says laughing pulling Quinn back down as she goes to stand up "Babe I'm kidding, I'm thinking that girl has been through so much it never seems to end for her, I feel guilty that we have to punish her but she needs to understand we won't have her fighting especially in school."

Quinn nods "I agree well we best get thinking then."

They both sit there for an hour discussing everything, they finally agree on a punishment and call their daughter down Holly comes and slumps down on a kitchen chair. "Ok so Mom and I have talked" Santana starts "we understand why you hit that girl but Holly we are never going to tolerate you fighting ok?" Holly nods "So as far punishments goes tomorrow you will go to work with Mom, when I go and pick Maya up today I'm going to swing by your school and pick up your work for the next few days so you will be doing that and on Friday I'm going to take the day off and you are going to help me clean the house from top to bottom."

Holly looks up a little shocked "Is that it am I not grounded or you not going to spank me?"

Quinn sits down next to her "No baby not this time like we said we understand why you did it but this is your only pass if it happens again you can expect both those things you said ok? You have no reason now not to come talk to me or Mama or even Mr Davis."

"Ok I understand thank you for believing me."

"That's another thing babe why did you think we wouldn't believe you, you have never lied to us we have no reason not to trust you" Santana says.

Holly sighs "Because before I came to live with you, I got in trouble a lot at school mainly for fighting and being disruptive so I figured you might think I was just going back to the way I was, but I promise I'm not."

"We know you're not sweetheart you have done so well and come so far these last few months and if we are honest we didn't know about the problems you had in school before but next week we have a meeting with your teacher so hopefully we will find out everything ok."

"Ok but you won't punish me for stuff she tells you I used to do will you?"

Quinn smiles "Ah baby of course not we only go on how you are doing now plus we would like to find out about all your grades and stuff as we haven't had a report card home yet and we want to make sure you are doing ok."

Holly's eyes go wide she knows she is struggling in a few subjects and hopes they won't be to mad "I don't think I have all A's though but I am trying honest I am."

"We don't expect you to get all A's sweetie as long as you are trying your best that all we ask, now stop worrying everything will be fine, so how about Mom and I take you out for some lunch because I really want a meatball sub" Santana says kissing the top of her daughters head.

Quinn rolls her eyes "Really babe you want a subway?"

"Hell yea we haven't had one in ages, what do you say Holly?"

Holly smiles "Hell yea I want that too" she turns and looks at Quinn face "Sorry but Mama said it."

"Yes and your Mama got the look also, come on go get your shoes on and we will go" Quinn says giving her a playful swat as she gets up when she leaves she turns to Santana "Are you sure you didn't have a child in school and not tell anyone cause I swear she is all you."

Santana laughs "Nothing wrong with that babe, and we spent all of high school and college together I think you would have noticed a baby don't you."

Both of them laugh when Holly walks back in, stood with her hands on her hips glaring at them both "What's so funny?"

Santana laughs again "No babe that is your look not mine" she walks towards Holly and hugs her "Nothing funny at all come on I'm starving."

All three head out for some lunch before picking Maya up and collecting Holly's homework, they enjoyed the rest of the evening together as a family.
