Aww it's over :(

I just want to say thank you to every one of you. Thank you for reading and reviewing. I loved writing this fic. Really, I'm thinking about doing it again, I even have a interesting movie in mind…

Anyway, here is the thing, this is the epilogue so I'll give you a glimpse of their lives in the future but I let out three important things: one is the explanation of Rachel's glimpse. And the others are: The proposal, and the marriage!

I promise that the proposal will be epic!

So I guess you will have to read the Sequel!

I don't own Glee or the family man script.

Is this the real life?

Is this just fantasy?

Caught in a landside

No escape from reality…

She watches as Jesse performs Vocal Adrenaline's rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody.

"Rachel?"

She looks behind and sees Shelby walking toward her.

"What are you doing here?"

"Well, I'm watching the performance. Why? Is that a problem?" She pauses and shakes her finger while the other hand is resting on her hip. "I don't think so. In fact, I'm allowed to be here as much as anyone else."

"Yes honey. There's just one problem."

"And what problem is that?"

"Quinn is in labor."

"Yes, I know."

"Honey, are you okay?"

"I'm spectacular. Why wouldn't I be?"

"I just told you Quinn is in labor. She's having your baby."

"My baby? No she is having… Beth-"

Rachel eyes open wide as a fourteen-year-old Beth is approaching her mother.

"Hi Ray."

"She needs you." Shelby says sweetly.

"Oh my God! Quinn! Toni! Oh my God it's happening… and I'm not there."

She starts hyperventilating.

"Just calm down sweetie."

"I'm not there!" She panics. "I'm not there."

"Rach calm down…"

"No, no, no…"

She shakes her head in despair as her eyelids are closed and fluttering.

"No. no. no…"

"Rach, baby, wake up. It's okay I'm here."

On their bed, sweaty and puffy, Rachel sits up quickly. She turns to Quinn.

"Quinn… the-are you? Toni…"

"Shhh, it's okay now." She embraces Rachel's shoulders.

"No. Are you okay? You're not in labor?"

"I'm okay." Quinn smiles and kisses her wife's sweaty forehead. "And no, I'm not in labor. She's still here." She places a hand on her big belly.

"It happened again. I wasn't there."

Rachel is constantly having the same nightmare. Quinn is in labor and she is not there. Just like Beth's birth.

"Rach, it's just a nightmare. You're anxious that's all."

But, as she sees Rachel is still in a worried state of mind, she has an idea.

"Tell her again."

"Quinn…"

"Come on."

The Broadway star tries to hold it in but she ends up smiling from ear to ear.

"Okay."

She leans in and kisses her wife's belly fondly.

"Hey sweetie, it's Mommy. Sorry to wake you up but I need to remind you again. Rule number one: no trying to get out if I'm not by your mom's side, okay?" She pauses. "Good."

Quinn, currently eight and a half months pregnant, watches in awe. Rachel has talked to their daughter since the first positive pregnancy test. Even though Quinn tried explain that she was talking to a cell with no ears yet, she continued on. And just like Beth used to, Toni always kicked when Rachel sang. Since the nightmares started two weeks ago however, that little addendum was always added in.

"Come on silly. Let's go back to sleep." Quinn shifts and grimaces ever so slightly, enough so to put Rachel on alert mode.

"What? What's wrong?"

"Nothing is wrong, it's just my back."

"Sorry that I woke you, I feel awful now." She sucks in a breath.

"Baby it wasn't your -"

"No love." Rachel cuts her off. "I think from now on I'm going to sleep in the guest room. You were finally comfortable and I woke you up…" she sighs, annoyed with herself.

"Rach, are you crazy? How am I supposed to be comfortable if you're not here?"

"Well, you'll be able to sleep."

"Not going to happen. There's no way we're going to sleep in separate beds. Not now and not ever. Besides, if you want me to feel good then you know what to do."

"Out of the question, let's sleep." Rachel kisses her wife's hands quickly and settles in bed.

"Rach, come on! Baby, its just sex. I'm not running a marathon."

"Excuse me?" Rachel gets testy. "First, you're telling me that with us 'its just sex'?"

Quinn rolls her eyes. "You know what I mea-"

"And no, we can't. You're almost nine months pregnant Sunshine. I won't do it."

"That's nonsense." She whines frustrated. "Please let me at least touch you."

"But that's even worse! What if I- you know, end up hurting you."

"Rach please, I'm going crazy here."

"Baby…"

"Fine." She huffs and starts trying to stand up.

"What are you doing?"

"Nothing."

"Quinn?"

The blonde manages to get to her feet and leaves the room.

"Quinn?" Rachel stands up quickly and follows her wife.

"I'm thirsty." She walks through the hallway toward the stairs.

"And you couldn't ask?"

"No."

"But Quinn…"

She continues walking down the stairs without looking at Rachel.

"Quinn!"

"Rachel it's just a freaking glass of water!" They get in the kitchen.

She takes the glass and starts pouring it.

"Are you mad?"

"No-" She drinks the water slowly, trying to keep calm.

Rachel sighs, watching her wife anxiously.

"I'm just frustrated." She finishes the water and sets the glass down on the counter.

"Frustrated?"

She frowns as Quinn passes by her and leaves the kitchen.

"Quinn…" She follows the blonde.

"I'm fucking frustrated! You don't want to touch me!"

Quinn says angrily, as she enters the living room of their apartment. She sits on the couch and looks everywhere but at Rachel. Trying to calm down, she thinks back to when she bought their place three years ago before they were married. Her realtor was unsure about showing it to Quinn, as it was in the West Village and a little more bohemian than her normal celebrity clients liked. When they drove through the neighborhood though Quinn fell in love. It was definitely one of the more colorful parts of Manhattan. In between cobblestone streets and early world charm stood chic eateries, small thrift stores and all types of families strolling around. When they pulled up to the house, a large updated brownstone tucked away down a cobblestone side street, Quinn almost put an offer in right there. When she made it into the apartment, she was amazed how right it felt just standing inside the door. In fact, it was just like the apartment she dreamt about that night before New Year's Eve. At first glance, Rachel wasn't completely sold. Once she found out their neighbors were Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker and she saw the true grandeur of the home, she demanded they move in immediately.

The first floor had large open concept living and dinning rooms, with floor to ceiling windows that stretched the entire length of the apartment. A gourmet chef's kitchen, complete with a large center island, took up the entire back part of the apartment. Three doors were tucked away near the stairs, two leading to small rooms that were perfect for an office and guest room, and the third being a lovely modern guest bathroom. Upstairs was a huge master bedroom with ensuite, two more bedrooms, a bathroom, and a large bonus space in which Quinn ultimately decided to turn into a music room for Rachel. Quinn kept out the Broadway star until it was completely finished and decorated. In Rachel's opinion, it's the greatest room in the house.

"That's not true, I do touch you."

Quinn is brought out of her musings by her wife's voice. "You know what I mean!"

"Baby you're just stressed. It's because you're pregnant and all the hormones…" Rachel gets close to her wife and hugs her from behind. "You know what? Soon it will be over, we'll have a beautiful baby girl and you'll have your body back."

As soon as it slips from her mouth she knows she's made a huge mistake.

"So that's the problem, my body?" The blonde pulls away harshly.

"Baby, please don't go there…"

"Why?" She smiles dejectedly. "Is it because I'm this big fat ugly cow that you don't desire anymore?"

"Of course not!"

"Uh huh."

"Look I know that it must be hard sometimes-"

"You don't fucking know! You never got pregnant, so you don't know. You don't know what I'm going through!" She says this in that way that makes Rachel's whole body tense as she remembers their high school bitter moments. She watches Quinn walk up the stairs.

The Broadway star takes a deep breath and goes back to their bedroom as well. "We're not going to do this now. You're stressed and that's not good for the baby-" She says as she walks in.

"Just shut up!" She throws her hand in the air rashly. "You can't control every fucking thing about my pregnancy! And I don't want you to do it anymore! I'm freaking out already."

Since they got confirmation that Quinn was pregnant, Rachel had been a super caring and dedicated wife. Along with that, she got a bit controlling as well. Quinn loved everything that Rachel did for her though. She tried to indulge Quinn's every desire and made her feel so loved and cared for. That is, until Rachel's routine started to affect their sex life.

Since their first time, their sex life had been very active and switched between sweet and tender lovemaking and wild and passionate fucking. Like the time Quinn left Rachel's neck all marked up because some Broadway guy had flirted with her. However a month ago, to Quinn's distaste, Rachel decided that the blonde couldn't touch her sexually because she could hurt the blonde in case things got out of control, which had happened more times than they could count. Then two weeks ago, she decided that they shouldn't have sex at all just for precaution.

Of course Quinn never agreed to any of it, and they argued about it constantly. Now, the blonde is at her limit. Horny, frustrated, and just plain angry.

"Yes, you're right. I can't relate to your pregnancy problems. I'm nobody important. It's not like I'm your wife or anything right?

"No, Rach I'm sorr-"

"I'm sleeping in the guest room."

Rachel turns around and executes a perfect storm out, stomping down the stairs and slamming the door of the lower guest room shut with such force that Quinn could hear it.

"I'm an idiot!" The blonde bursts out in tears.

She sits on bed, her tears streaming down her face.

Stupid hormones! Now she hates me…

Quinn hates it when they fight; it is something so out of place that she feels completely awful. It seems cliché but their marriage really has been nothing less than perfect. And although arguing with each other used to be a very usual thing for them back in high school, since they got together, it became very rare.

"You're magnificent."

She lifts her head immediately. She was so lost in her misery that she didn't hear Rachel coming back up the stairs.

"You've always been and frankly, you're even more beautiful now." Rachel gets closer and she takes her wife's hand and kneels in front of her. "You're carrying my baby." She wipes Quinn's tears. "And that's what I should have said before."

She holds the blonde's neck and presses their lips together, kissing Quinn passionately.

"And I will always desire you." They kiss again.

"I love you." Quinn says emotionally.

"I love you too."

"So make love to me Rach."

Rachel stands up and pulls Quinn with her. She captures the blonde's lips again and kisses her slowly at first but as her hands run through her wife's hair, she gets more passionate. Her tongue probes deep into Quinn's mouth as the blonde kisses back intensely, her arms holding Rachel tightly. They stop to breathe.

"Please baby." Quinn whispers as her wife's gentle hand is rubbing her breast. She moans in pleasure when Rachel slides her hand under her shirt and cups one breast. She then takes the shirt off and kisses one of them softly and slowly. When she is sucking and licking the nipples she lets out a big sigh and smiles.

"What?" Quinn looks down and smiles too.

"I was thinking that soon, I won't be able to do this for a while. But it's okay because it's for her. She can borrow them but they're still mine."

Since Quinn's breasts doubled in size because of the pregnancy, Rachel became even more obsessed with them. She cups both breasts and squeezes them slightly.

"Yess." Quinn hisses out, her breasts more sensitive than normal at this point.

Rachel turns her wife around and starts sliding Quinn's pants down. She kneels and takes them off completely. She cups both cheeks and bites the flesh of Quinn's ass. The brunette stands up to fondle the blonde's breasts again as she plants open mouthed kisses on Quinn's neck.

"Oh yess baby, I missed this."

"Did you?" She bites Quinn's earlobe.

"Yess. Baby?"

"Mm?"

"I don't like fighting with you."

"I don't like it either." She says fondly. "Lay down for me."

Quinn lies and settles on bed.

"Wait." She says as Rachel is spreading her legs.

"What's wrong? Are you okay baby?"

"Let me touch you first."

"But Quinn, this is about you, you're stressed and I'll make you feel good."

"By letting me touch you."

"You miss being in charge don't you baby?" Rachel smirks.

"So much…" She sighs. "Take your clothes off."

Rachel does as commanded and gets naked.

"Quinn, it will be better if-"

"Just shut up, I need you on my face now." She licks her lips as she starts getting very eager. She needs to taste her love.

"Are you sure?"

"So sure…" Her eyes don't leave Rachel's body as the brunette gets closer.

"I love you Sunshine."

"I love you too Starlight."

She positions herself and the blonde is sure that her night is about to get very good.

She curses under her breath as she notices that once again, she has to leave her comfortable spot on the couch. Especially because lately, comfortable is an extinct word in her vocabulary.

"I need to go to the bathroom sweetie."

"Okay, let me help you." Beth stands up and gets in front of her mother.

"What?" She asks as she sees the big smile on Quinn's face.

"Nothing, I'm just appreciating my beautiful daughter."

The fact the she was now living so much closer to her daughter was a big plus when she moved to New York.

"Haha." Beth snorts.

"You are."

"Yeah, if you're into acne."

"Beth, look at me." She holds the blonde girl's chin. "You're a wonderful girl. You're amazing and I'm so proud of you. But…" She trails off playfully. "Even though I believe that beauty is more than skin deep-" Rachel taught her that. "I know for sure that you're going to be a very beautiful woman."

"So, I'm not beautiful now?" She smirks.

"You know what I mean. Do you think I'm beautiful?"

"Well that's an understatement." She says reverently.

They giggle.

"So, it so happens that since you're so much like me…"

"You think?"

"Beth? Really? Look at us."

"Well, you don't have acne." Beth says in a typical teenage manner.

"Thank God. I'm little too old for that."

"What about when you were on my age?"

"I had acne and I was fat." She arches her brow playfully. "Kids used to call me Lucy Caboosey."

"So, I'll get fat?"

"Ugh, Beth!"

"You're saying I'm just like you and all-"

"Have you ever felt that you weren't loved or won't ever be loved? That you're so insecure about yourself that you keep eating and eating so you don't have to feel so depressed?"

"No." Beth shakes her head. "I know I'm loved."

"I hope so because you really truly are. Loved by your mother, me, Puck, Rachel, and…" She takes Beth's hand and places it on her belly. "By her."

The blonde girl giggles. "How do you know?"

"I just know." She smiles at the teen. "Now help me here." She grimaces slightly as she stands. Suddenly, a strange feeling washes over her that she can't explain.

"What?"

"It's nothing…I think-" Quinn says trying to smile.

"I'll go get my mom. Mommy!" Beth yells and goes toward the kitchen. "Mommy, come here!"

"What's wrong?"

Shelby runs to the living room. Of course in her absence Rachel had asked her mother to take care of Quinn.

"I'm okay. I think I just really need to pee."

"Are you sure?" Shelby is not entirely convinced.

"Yes. It's just-"

"Honey, tell me what are you feeling?"

Quinn takes a deep breath.

"Baby I'm home!" They hear before seeing Rachel enter the apartment.

The Broadway star heads straight for the group who are oddly standing around the living room.

"So soon?" Quinn asks as Rachel presses their lips in a chaste kiss.

"Yes." She smiles and kisses Beth.

Rachel was back from a charity event sponsored by a group Quinn worked closely with. She thought it amazing how Quinn constantly dedicated and volunteered her time to charity work, even making trips to Africa where she volunteered at a nongovernmental institution dedicated to teenagers who got pregnant and didn't have anybody to help them. As Quinn's wife, and as the blonde couldn't be there (Rachel's decision), Rachel went in her place. After the lively and pleasant dinner, she started feeling uneasy and she knew for sure that she had to get back home. She had always been a little psychic, right? She excused herself for the night which was met with understanding as Quinn's state was public knowledge.

"Please don't be mad but I had this feeling an-" She stops and stares at the odd face her wife was making. "What's wrong?"

"My water just broke."

After confirming that yes, Quinn's water had broken (the amniotic liquid on the floor being proof) it was madness. Who knew that getting ready to become a grandmother would be so much more dramatic than becoming a mother? Shelby had to deal with her daughter in-law who was in labor, her scared and terrified younger daughter, and worst of all, her completely overdramatic and hysteric older daughter.

Rachel freaked out. It was anxiety, excitement and her overprotection toward Quinn all mixed together to form a hurricane of emotion. As soon as she managed to calm her daughter down a little, Shelby called their driver who Rachel had requested be on standby just in case.

On their way to the hospital, Rachel called her dads but was having big trouble forming a coherent sentence. Quinn had to step in and despite the pain caused by contractions, she talked to them calmly and informed them what was going on. The Berry men, especially Leroy, dealt with the news just like their daughter. Their excitement couldn't be any bigger as they announced that they would leave immediately for New York. Although Judy's reaction moments later when Quinn called her mother wasn't any less different.

Finally, they made it to the hospital where Quinn was set up in a private room. They settled in, waiting for the obstetrician. Well, Quinn was settled. Rachel began pacing the room.

"Rachel, honey, just calm down. It's labor, I've already been through it before remember?"

"Yeah. I wasn't there though."

"Here we go again."

"It's true."

"Just let me remind you Rachel, you were sixteen and-"

"That is hardly an excuse."

Quinn huffs, frustrated. This is really not the time for that. Especially when contractions are killing her.

"Rachel, this is the most important moment of our family. Are we really going to argue about something that happened fourteen years ago? Beth is here and she loves you. That's what matters. And-" She raises her voice a little. "As I was saying, we weren't friends at that time. We barely talked to each other."

"We were a family Quinn, the whole glee club was there. And you're wrong, I always considered you a friend. But I think it may have always been a one sided thing." She smiles, melancholic.

"Rach…" She whines.

Rachel sighs loudly.

"You're right. I'm sorry." She gets close to her wife and kisses her hand. "We're here and that's what matters."

"Hey girls." Shelby walks inside followed by Beth. "The doctor will be in soon."

"No, she has to be here now!"

"Rach…"

Less than a few minutes later, Quinn's obstetrician appears. After a quick check, it's announced that Quinn is dilated enough to head to the birthing room.

"Oh God, honey just come out!"

She'd forgotten how painful the whole giving birth thing is. Again, she decided to do it naturally without the drugs. When they started planning the pregnancy, they both agreed on it. Now, here she is, trying her best to control her screams as to not alarm Rachel exactly how much pain she's in. Although, she might be close to breaking the brunette's hand as she is holding it so tight.

Rachel couldn't care less as she is focused on helping Quinn breathe. Just like she learned in the classes she took.

"You're doing great Quinn. She is almost here." The doctor announces.

"See Sunshine? Just breathe." Rachel says sweetly as she kisses Quinn's sweaty forehead.

"Rach?"

"Yes honey?"

"Tell me why I am doing this again."

Rachel giggles and kisses her wife cheek.

"Because you love me."

"Yeah." She says dumbfounded.

"And because I love you."

Quinn sighs. And as she looks at Rachel, she thinks that she would do anything to see that look of sheer adoration in her wife's eyes.

"I love you."

"Then keep pushing… and breathe."

She nods and does as commanded.

"Come on." The doctor says encouraging her. "One more push…"

She bites her lip hard but it's not enough to prevent her from screaming as the baby finally comes out.

And then, they hear the cry.

"Well, she's got a set of lungs hasn't she." The doctor smiles at Rachel as she gives the baby to the nurses to clean up.

"Just like her mother." Quinn smiles widely.

"You were wonderful baby." Rachel kisses her wife's forehead. "Are you okay?"

"Yes, just want to see her." She nods as she is tired and eager.

"Well, then here she is."

Free of her umbilical cord, Toni is carefully placed in her mother's arms.

"I can't believe she is here. She is… I have no words." Rachel says with tears in her eyes.

They giggle, Rachel Berry with no words? Quinn stretches her arms and wipes her wife's tears. Then with sweet, happy, shining eyes, and with a big smile on her face, she looks at her daughter.

"Hi…"

She is in bliss. Smiling from ear to ear as tears runs down her face at the same time.

Fourteen years later and here she is again. Though nothing in the world can pull her away this time.

Now, she is ready to be a mother.

One year later.

She hates it when she has to stay away from her family. And that's why she's started thinking about taking time away from Broadway. She is now a two time Tony winner with ten years of Broadway under her belt. It's funny how the critics comment how spectacular she is, as always, yet they claim there is something new about her performance. Rachel knows exactly what it is. She now performs for her beautiful and perfect family.

She's just had a very productive afternoon with her agent and now wants to share everything with the pretty blonde that she has the pleasure of calling her wife. Rachel gets inside their apartment and walks toward the stairs. The closer she gets, the more the noises become distinct. When she gets inside the bedroom, she hears that one sound that she thinks is the most beautiful sound in the world, Toni laughing.

"Yay! One more time." Quinn shouts happily as Toni keeps laughing.

"Now wash mom's neck." Rachel walks in the attached bathroom and smiles as she sees Quinn lifting her head so Toni could wash her neck. They are both inside the bathtub, surrounded by toys. "Hey baby! Look at this! She is-" She points to Toni's hand holding the bath sponge.

"I'm seeing."

Rachel smiles from ear to ear. She holds her breath for a moment and moves closer to the bath. She kneels and kisses her wife quickly.

"How was your meeting?" Quinn asks as she is now trying to calm an overexcited Toni. The girl is splashing water everywhere. "Toni, you're soaking your mother."

Seeing Rachel wiping her face amuses the little brunette even more and she continues to splash.

"Little girl." Quinn says in a serious tone and Rachel watches as Toni's big brown eyes stare at her mother with curiosity and respect. "No no. Look at Mommy's face." She pouts and points to Rachel's face.

Toni smiles at her mother, caressing Quinn's pout. The blonde bites her daughter's fingers sweetly, which makes the baby girl laugh hard. Meanwhile Rachel watches in awe, completely charmed by her two most beloved girls.

"You're perfect, you know that right?" She strokes Quinn's short hair. After Toni was born, she decided to cut it short since she wanted to dedicate as much time as she could to her daughter. They don't have a nanny except when it's really necessary.

"You're the perfect one baby, look what you gave me."

Rachel sighs. "She is kind of perfect… Mm?"

"Yes."

"But now it's time to get out of this bathtub, let me see her fingers…" She inspects her daughter's fingers playfully. "Yep, ready to leave. Let me take her. You finish rinsing off." Rachel kisses Quinn one more time and takes her daughter out of the bath to Toni's displeasure.

After the usual routine that consists of dressing her daughter and letting her play with her toys, her favorite being a little cute and very pink piano Rachel bought to her -which lead to Quinn's warnings that they wouldn't pressure Toni to do or like anything-they come together at the kitchen island to talk while Quinn is making her food.

"I'm going to check her again Sunshine."

Although she is still crawling, Toni has to stay with her toys inside her baby safety fence otherwise she ends up on the stairs.

"Okay, go ahead. I'm starting to think it's a little too quiet."

Rachel giggles and leaves the kitchen. She walks toward the living room and notices that indeed the little girl is quiet. And that usually means one thing, trouble.

But this time it's anything but. Rachel stops walking and smiles happily. Right there in front of her is Toni, standing on her legs and walking over her toys as if it's the easiest thing in the world.

Rachel started walking when she was eight months old (Toni is now almost one, her birthday is in two weeks) and as Quinn says, she has this habit of comparing the both of them. Which, the actress continues to discourage since day one.

But she had a theory and now knows she was right. Two months ago, Toni started her first steps and then nothing. She didn't do it anymore.

If Rachel had to guess, it would be that Ms. Lucy Antoinette is Quinndependent. Whenever Quinn is around, she wants her mother's lap. Rachel can't blame her at all.

She gets back to the kitchen quickly.

"What? What happened?" Quinn asks as she sees the big smile on her wife's face.

"Come and see." Rachel smirks.

Quinn quickly follows out of the kitchen.

"Wait baby."

"What?"

"Slowly."

Rachel doesn't want Toni to see them.

"Okay."

The brunette takes her wife's hand and leads her toward their little girl. As soon as Quinn notices her daughter, she gasps. She is amazed and thrilled and happy.

"Oh my God…" She smiles widely.

"Isn't she lovely?"

Quinn nods her eyes never leaving her daughter.

"Hey little girl."

The little brunette looks behind her and puts her hand on her mouth, biting it as if she knows she's caught. Her knees are slowly starting to wobble.

"No! Come to Mom, Toni." Quinn opens the safety fence then backs away and kneels on the floor. "Come here." She pouts. "Please my baby. Come to Mom."

As if she couldn't stand to see her mother sad, Toni gets steady again and starts walking toward Quinn.

Meanwhile, Rachel dashes back to the kitchen and frantically searching the counter for her phone. As soon she finds it, she hurries back and starts filming the whole scene.

"Yes, come here."

Toni walks slowly toward her mother and when she finally gets there, Quinn lifts the girl in the air playfully, huge smiles on both their faces.

And then:

"Ma-ma."

"What?!" Quinn stares at her baby girl. "Mama?" She encourages her daughter.

"Ma-ma." Toni says again.

"Yes, Toni. Ma-ma, I'm your mama…"

"Ma-ma"

"Yay!"

The little Brunette giggles happily.

"Did you record it baby?"

"Of course love."

"I'm her mama."

"Yes you are."

"But you're her mama too ok?"

Rachel smiles, in love.

"I know baby."

This moment is not just recorded in a video. It will be in her memory forever.

"I love you, both of you."

Three years later.

"Heeey everybody! I'm here with the cutest sisters ever! I mean look at them… So B- wait, can I call you B?"

Beth smiles and nods. "Sure Giuliana, I'm kind of a fan actually so I think it's an honor."

"Okay first of all, stop sounding like your mother."

They laugh. "Which one?"

"Yeah you got me. That gorgeous blonde over there." The younger blonde looks behind her to see Quinn speaking with another interviewer. "But seriously thank you, you're so sweet. Tell me about this little girl in your arms. What is she wearing?"

"Isn't it cute? I chose it of course and she loves when I dress her. Right Toni?"

The three, almost four, year old nods. She is fashionable and surprisingly un-shy about walking the red carpet. Even though Toni has been raised under constant protection and not unnecessarily exposed to the intrusions of the media, she is not the kind of kid who gets easy startled by the madness and crowd of people who flock to these large types of gatherings.

Currently, they are at a premier. After a few years away from the scene, Quinn went back to work. She had the pleasure of filming with Beth who started a career as an actress as well with a lot of support from her family. In this particular movie, she portrayed Quinn's character when she was a teenager.

The interviewer asks how it was being in a movie with her birth mother. Beth replies, "So yeah, there is this scene and it's my favorite scene in the movie. Quinn's character talks with her younger self so we had the chance of being in a scene together and it was amazing, she is… amazing, and I was a little intimidated at first but she helped me a lot."

"But it was fun I suppose?" Giuliana asks.

"It was-"

"I want Mommy." Toni whispers in her ear. Beth smiles.

"Aww… what did she say?"

"She wants her Mommy. I have to take her to Ray."

"So sweet, please go ahead or Rachel will kill me. Thank you Beth, bye Toni…"

"Say Bye Toni."

"Bye." She waves graciously to the woman and then turns and blows kisses at the camera. Beth laughs.

"Let's go Little Rachel."

The young actress puts her sister on the floor and holds her hand. They walk on the red carpet toward their mothers. As soon as they get close to Rachel, Toni lets go of Beth and holds her mommy's hand. She won't ask to be carried because her Mom said before they left their house that Mommy is temporarily unable to carry her. She doesn't know exactly why. Her mom said that her mommy has a baby in her belly but it looks the same to her.

Rachel is only two months pregnant but is experiencing the whole overprotection thing already. In her opinion, Quinn is way worse when it comes to Rachel being pregnant but as a natural self-centered person, she loves it.

She is unable to resist her daughter though and as Quinn is talking to a reporter, she bends down and holds Toni in her arms.

"Rachel…" Beth looks at Quinn quickly. "She will-"

"Don't worry honey, I can deal with her. Let's get inside. Too many flashes for Toni."

"Mom."

Toni points to her mother. And just like she had heard it, Quinn looks behind. It always amazes Rachel the connection they have.

"So this premier is a family affair huh?"

She smiles. "Sure is and I'm so happy they are all here. I mean we're home, so of course I had to bring them."

They decided that they would bring Toni to the New York premiere since it is in their hometown. She never goes if the premiers are in other parts of the country. Quinn didn't want her family traveling overseas to follow her and she made sure not to stay longer than necessary in any city.

"Actually, my entire family is here tonight." She looks at Brittany who has Amy in her arms and Santana right on her side. The couple is approaching Rachel and the girls. "This is a family movie after all. It has many elements of fairy tales."

"Okay, thanks for talking to us Quinn."

"Well, thank you guys. Bye." She sends a kiss to the camera and walks toward her family. "Hey Toni, come to Mom." She says when she gets close.

"Quinn she didn't ask. I took her."

"I know, but let me carry her."

"Okay." She smirks. "Don't you want to carry the other too?"

"Shhh. Rachel."

She takes her daughter.

"Yeah, like they could hear me."

"I don't know…"

Just like they did with Toni, they plan to keep the pregnancy a secret as long as possible.

"Come on, let's go see the prettiest blonde I ever met stealing the show."

"I'm the leading lady so technically I didn't st-"

"Who said I was talking about you?"

"You're lucky she's my daughter."

"Who said I was talking about Beth?"

"You better be. For the sake of our marriage." She says with her husky voice.

"Of course I am silly. Come on; let's see the two prettiest girls I ever met. Ready to see Beth on the big screen Toni?"

The little girl nods smiling.

"What are you doing? Move already, let's go see this lame movie."

"San…" Brittany looks at her wife fiercely.

"Sorry. Let's go, where's your mother Beth? I mean the other one."

"She is inside already."

"See? Move, move." Santana says impatient.

They all roll their eyes but walk away from the press and toward the movie theater. At the end of the night, Beth couldn't tell who was more excited with her performance. But no review or compliments from her director could be better than Toni's 'Beth pretty in the movie.'

When she found out Quinn was pregnant she thought she would be a little jealous. If she's honest with herself, she was. But Rachel was there for her, explaining that it was normal to feel like that and how she went through it as well when Shelby adopted her. Rachel said that in the end, the baby's happiness was more important than anything else. And that's why she was never on board with Quinn's plan to take Beth back when they were in high school.

And now, Beth can't imagine her life without that adorable little girl.

Two years later.

"Okay! They are sleeping!" Rachel bursts into their bedroom.

"Nice." Quinn answers, eyes still on the book she is reading.

"Quinn?"

"Yeah?"

"You-" She huffs. "Did you hear what I said?" She gets close and takes the book, placing it on the nightstand and making the blonde whine

"What are you doing?" She finally looks at Rachel.

Oh God… she is beautiful.

"Trying to make love to my clueless wife."

"Not anymore."

"Good." Rachel straddles the blonde and presses their lips together. They start making out as if it was their first time all over again and they won't have the chance to do it again. Quinn pulls away.

"Oh God…" She rests her head on Rachel's chest.

"What?" She kisses the top of her head.

"I-" She looks up and Rachel presses their lips together again. "I still want you just the same way as I always have. It's never enough." She cups and squeezes Rachel's breasts. "I can't get enough of you."

"Well, you know that all of me it's yours right?"

"Yeah."

"So…"

"I'm gonna take what's mine."

She grabs the brunette's waist and flips her on bed. The blonde gets on top and they kiss passionately. Outside, it starts to rain heavily with loud thunder and lightning. Rachel wraps her legs around Quinn's waist as her hands run up and down her wife's back. All of sudden, Quinn stops the kiss. She looks outside the window, nibbles her lips and frowns.

"What?" Rachel asks curious.

"Just hold on a minute." She gets up and walks out of the bedroom. As soon as she enters Toni's room, she turns on the light. The little girl is awake but has pulled the blanket so it's almost covering her head.

"Hey sweetie." Quinn sits on the bed gently and pulls the blanket down.

"I can't sleep Mom."

"Why?"

"The thunders." She points to her window and climbs into her mother's lap.

"It's just the rain sweetie. It'll stop soon, I promise." Quinn kisses her head.

"Can I sleep with you?"

"Of course. Come on." She stands with the girl in her arms. "Let's check your brother."

Holding her daughter tight, she walks toward the baby's room.

"Ben sleeping." Toni says affectionately.

Quinn looks at the one-year-old boy sleeping peacefully in his crib. "He is."

She leans in and kisses his dirty blonde head, exactly like Quinn's.

"Sweet dreams my boy." She turns to her daughter. "Let's sleep?"

The little girl nods happily as Quinn walks back to the bedroom.

"Hey baby, we have company." She says as she gets close to her wife.

"I see that." Rachel smiles.

"Go kiss your mommy." Quinn places Toni on the bed and the girl goes to her right away.

"Thought you were sleeping."

"The thunders don't let me Mommy."

"Yeah, they are scary. Is Benjamin still sleeping?"

"Ben is sleeping." Toni says promptly. Tonight, she doesn't want to share her mommies.

Quinn smiles at the girl and settles on bed. "Yes, he is sleeping. We checked. He kind of sleeps like a rock right?"

Rachel laughs. "Yeah. Seems like someone I know."

Quinn gets back into bed and Toni climbs immediately onto her chest. She still likes to sleep smelling her mother's scent. Quinn plants lots of kisses on the little girl's head. Enchanted by the sight, Rachel stands up and takes Quinn's professional grade camera from the bookcase.

"What are you doing?"

"I want to capture this moment."

"Why?" She smiles.

"I don't know. You both look so perfect. My Angels"

"Crazy."

"For you."

Rachel takes a couple of pictures and then goes back to bed. She sighs. "Thank you."

"What for?"

"For letting me love you. So I can have moments like this."

"You don't have to say thank you because it was all I ever wanted. I always wanted somebody to love me."

She sighs, blushing slightly as she remembers the fight she had with Santana and Brittany in New York at Nationals.

"Actually, I always wanted you to love me." She just didn't realize it till years later.

"I do. I love you so much and I'm just so happy my love." She presses their lips together and they stay like this for a while, their lips just touching each other.

"So, dear love of my life, would you sing to us?"

"Sing? For you and my baby girl?"

Quinn nods, smiling.

"Always."

And then softly but full of emotion, she starts singing.

She's got a smile that it seems to me

Reminds me of childhood memories,

Where everything

Was as fresh as the bright blue sky

She doesn't quite know how, but over the years Rachel has just gotten better and better.

Now and then when I see her face

She takes me away to that special place

And if I stare too long

I'll probably break down and cry

They are staring at each other, the beginnings of tears glistening in both their eyes.

Oh, oh, oh

Sweet child o' mine

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Sweet love of mine

And then they drift off to sleep with the promise of tomorrow being yet another happy day in the life of the Berry-Fabray family.

So, how was it? Leave me your thoughts, review, opinion… :)

The song:

"Sweet child of mine" ( by guns n' roses, though my inspiration was Sheryl Crow's version.)

See you in the sequel?

Another thing I'm going to write a especial one-shot Toni and Beth centered. It'll be a Christmas thing.
