Rachel stood in her room, putting on the last of her Dalton uniform. It was her first day, she not only leaves McKinley and the bullying behind, but she will also be joining her boyfriend Hunter Clarington who came back from military school a week ago. Rachel will admit seeing him again was hard, not only because he left her, but because of something that happened before he left, Rachel will always blame Hunter for what happened in the past, but it's not like she can leave him, even if he did cause her more pain and heartache than what Finn and McKinley ever done, but it's not like she can leave Hunter, not when she loves him, and is afraid he will find out everything.

Rachel walked out of her room, and started to prepare everything for her first day at Dalton. She was nervous, as she walked into the living room, she looked at a photo, it was when the bad memories happened, but she can't deny that they were her everything, even if they are a reminder of what happened 4 years ago. She placed the photo down and walked into their rooms, and smiled at them. The two little girls looked at her, smiled brightly up at her, and rushed over to hug her. Rachel hugged them and said

"How are my sweet girls?" The girls hugged her tightly and said

"We are fine mummy." Rachel kissed their heads as she heard

"Don't worry Rach, I'll be taking Ava and Lexi out for the day, with Beth." Rachel looked behind her and saw her mum Shelby and Beth and said

"I know, but I'll miss them dearly throughout the day. Like I always do." Rachel took both her daughter's hands, and walked them out, of their room so they could have breakfast. Ava Maria and Lexi Mae Berry are twin 4 year old girls and the daughters of Rachel Berry, they were a spitting image of her, equally as cunning, determined and conniving as she, the only thing they got from their father was their height. Rachel placed their breakfast down in front of her girls and Beth as Shelby placed Beth next to Ava. Shelby hugged Rachel and said

"It will be okay. Like it always is. And when you come home from school they will be here to give you a big hug, and same with Beth as well." Rachel nodded her head, as they heard a knock on the door. Rachel looked at the girls as Shelby went to answer the door and said

"Eat." the three girls sat quietly and ate their breakfast, as Rachel drank her coffee, she heard

"It will be weird to not have my best friend at McKinley with me." Rachel smiled as she saw Quick. She walked over and hugged Quinn and Noah. Quinn hugged Rachel tight as Puck walked over and sat down with Beth, Ava and Lexi and said

"How about on the weekend you and I go to a spa, and Noah and your mum will have the day with the little ones." Rachel pulled apart the hug and said

"I like that idea." Quinn smiled as she walked over and kissed Beth's forehead and Beth said

"Mama Quinn, Daddy." Beth hugged Quinn, and then Puck, as Quinn hugged Beth, she said

"We had to see our little girl and our god daughters before we went to school." Beth giggled, as Ava and Lexi hugged their favourite aunt and uncle, and then went back to her breakfast, and Puck hugged Rachel and said

"You're a good mum to them Rach, don't doubt yourself." Quinn agreed, and then she said

"You are even though you don't have your dads support, at least you have your mum's, and mine as well as Noah's, We will see you later. Lima Bean, at lunch." They hugged goodbye and then left. Rachel walked over to Ava and Lexi and said

"You be good, for your grandma, and Beth, and I'll see you when I come home from school." Rachel kissed their foreheads, Beth's as well, bid her mum farewell, and then drove to Dalton. As she drove to Dalton she worried, if Hunter would find out about Ava and Lexi. No one but her knew who their dad was, and that's how she was keeping it, and the reason she is at Dalton, to make sure Hunter didn't know about them. She will admit she became paranoid when he came back from military school that she made Thad watch him at dalton to make sure he didn't follow her no questions asked. Thad agreed even he was confused by it. She parked her car at Dalton, took a deep a breath, picked up her bag and then walked into the prestigious building. As she did, she bumped into the one and only Sebastian Smythe. Sebastian smirked at Rachel and said

"Well, well look what the doors of Dalton brought in, a girl, and what a fine girl you are Broadway." Rachel rolled her eyes at him and said

"I have a boyfriend, so watch it Smythe." Sebastian walked closer to her and said

"Doesn't bother me, if it doesn't bother you." Rachel folded her arms and said

"But you wouldn't do that to your friend now would you." Rachel smirked, walked around Sebastian leaving him speechless as she walked up to Hunter and kissed him. Unbeknownst to Sebastian, a certain couple named Nick Duval and Jeff Sterling saw the whole encounter between Rachel and Sebastian, and wondered if their male captain is in love with his friend's girl.
