Sebastian and Rachel One Shots (Smytheberry)

128. Unforgettable Re-meet.

Rachel was in Ohio after her flop of a tv show, she didn't want to face new York at all and she took her little daughter Anya with her as New York also reminded her of Finn who had let her go when she first got into NYADA. Anya was a lot like her mum with her talent, and the only thing she got from her dad Finn was her eyes. Finn had passed away, and it was hard on them both. Anya was 8 and already a little diva like her mum.

So here Rachel was in Westerville Shopping mall looking for school supplies for her daughter who was being looked after by her dad Leroy. Rachel wanted to be away from everything McKinley, but it was hard because Rachel didn't have a lot of money, and she and Anya were living with her dad.

As Rachel looked at a small purple backpack with gold stars on it for her daughter she heard

"Dad, why do I have to go shopping, you know I hate it."

"Because we are shopping for you to go back to school Claudette, I dislike shopping as much as you, but this we have to do so you have everything for school. You can pick what bag you want for school."

Rachel knew the dad's voice and she quickly turned and saw none other than Sebastian Smythe with a little girl who looked the same age as Anya and kneeling in front of her.

As Sebastian stood up, and took his daughter's hand, he looked up from his daughter and saw Rachel. He was shocked and surprised as she was. Sebastian picked up Claudette and said

"Broadway, long time no see. How has New York and the Broadway stages treating you and how have you been?" Rachel was thankful Sebastian didn't mention her TV show. She stood awkwardly and said

"It's been okay. I've had to stop performing at the moment because of my daughter Anya I couldn't be happier with putting Broadway on hold for her. And with Finn Anya's dad passing away, it's been hard for her and I both, but we're getting by." Sebastian felt for Rachel he knew how much Rachel loved Finn. Sebastian still holding his daughter, gently reached for Rachel's hand and said

"I'm sorry about Finn. And I bet anything he would be proud of you and proud of the mum you are Broadway." Rachel felt touched by his words and said

"Thank you Sebastian, that was really kind of you to say." Sebastian nodded his at her and then said

"This is actually my daughter Claudette. She's 8, she's basically a little mini of mine, but I wouldn't change her anything in the world." Rachel smiled at her and said

"I have a little girl too, her name is Anya, she's the same age as you." Claudette's eyes went wide eye in excitement and said

"That's so cool, I can't wait to meet her, if you're okay with it that is." Rachel was taken back by her forwardness that she gets from Sebastian, but she liked that Anya could have a friend her own age, and she said

"I'm okay with it." Claudette was happy, and Sebastian looked at her and said

"We should let Rachel be, so we can finish shopping for your school supplies, ma douce Claudette." Claudette nodded her head and waved Rachel goodbye as Sebastian and Rachel changed numbers. Claudette looked at her dad showing her green eyes at him as they walked away from Rachel and said

"How do you know her daddy?" Sebastian kissed his daughter's cheek as they continued shopping and said

"I knew her from high school." Sebastian continued on shopping while answering his daughter's questions about Rachel.

Rachel got home and had a lot on her mind, as she placed everything on the table, she felt tiny arms around her leg. She looked down and saw Anya. Rachel kneeled down and hugged her tight and said
