This is my attempt at BerryFord I want to start another story while my other is being edited.

Rachel kind of thought that they would always be friends so it hurt when they got to high school and they started ignoring her she always kind of expected Noah to he was really distant after his dad left. She knew that Mike wouldn't leave her on his own he would have to be provoked but What she didn't expect was for Matt and Mike to do the same, especially Matt he was always the loyal one and was never one to let anyone feel left out that's how they became friends.

*Flashback*

A 5-year Rachel Berry was at the park with her daddies. Her dad was tired of running around and went to sit down on the bench her daddy joined him leaving her to play by herself in the sand. She was making a sandcastle when a football flew over and hit her sandcastle knocking it over. Three little boys ran over to her probably looking for the football. Rachel was near tears she worked her on her sandcastle and the football ruined it.

"Sorry." came a small voice that knocked her put of thoughts. She looked up and saw that the voice belonged to a small African American boy with crazy curls on his head. When he saw her eyes shining with tear he bent down and gave her a hug whispering in her hair "I'll help you rebuild it if you want I didn't mean to make you cry my mommy says it's not good when girls cry" he quickly started picking up sand and trying to put the sandcastle back together. Rachel couldn't help but laugh at how silly he looked. The little boy heard her laugh and smiled. "Hi My name is Mathew Rutherford but everyone calls me Matt."

"My Name is Rachel Berry. My daddy says I'm going to be a star someday."

"Were you playing by yourself Rachel?" Matt asked appalled as if that's a crime.

"Well I was playing with my daddies but they got tired and went to sit down."

"Well would you like to play with me and friends Mike and Puck?"

"Dude were playing football" Puck said finally making his presence known "my dad says girls don't play football 'cause it's a man's sport."

"Well my daddy says I can do whatever I want to cause I'm a star"

"Well your daddy lied," Puck retorted.

"What is your name so I can tell my daddy on you?"

"The names puck babe," Puck replied smoothing over him Mohawk. Rachel doubted the parents actually named him after a fairy from Shakespeare but she let it go.

"His real name is Noah" Matt supplied sticking his tongue out at Noah who was scowling at him.

"Thank you Matt and its okay you don't have to play with me I can just rebuild my sand castle."

"Nu-uh. You're my friend now and my friends don't play by themselves." He grabbed her hand and pulled her up "We can play or the swings or dance with Mike."

"Who's Mike?" Rachel asked. Matt pointed to a tree that had feet hanging down from one of the branches.

"He up in the tree," he supplied "he's really shy and was scared you was gonna be mad at him so he hid"

"Why would I be mad at him?"

"He threw the ball"

"Well that no reason to be mad I'm sure he didn't do it on purpose," Rachel replied.

When they got to the tree matt had to talk mike down telling him that it's okay and that Rachel wasn't mad at him then they went to play on the swings.

After a while Rachel's daddies called her to leave.

"Bye Rachie," Mike said giving her a hug.

"Bye Rach," Puck said doing the same he had warmed up to her after a while seeing that his friends like her so why can't he.

"Bye Rach," Matt said giving her a kiss on her cheek and then ducking his head and blushing ignoring the snickers coming from his friends.

"Bye guy," Rachel said running to her daddies. She told them all about what happened and her new friends.

She didn't see them again for a while. Then on her first day of kindergarten she them and noticed that they were in the same class. She also started seeing Noah every week at temple.

*End Flashback*

She just didn't understand how they could just magically not be friends anymore. It hurt when Noah and Mike ignored her but not as much as when Matt did seeing as though she had a big crush on him. What hurt the most is that the summer before they went into high school they kissed and dated that whole summer then she came to school and he stopped ignoring her. She wondered what happen when she went to her grandma's house for a few weeks before school started. Maybe he didn't talk to her because she was forced to wear the animal sweaters and skirts her grandma bought her or the fact that Noah spilled a slushy on her and branded her a freak. She just didn't get how a whole friendship could disappear.

Hope you liked it. Its different from what I normally write but if I get a response will continue.
