Remember When I Loved You?

Chapter Eight

Rachel
(Christmas)

Finn hasn't talked to me much since that day he told me he loved me. It makes me feel like he humped me and dumped me. Which, no one wants to feel like that. I stretched and realized that it was Christmas morning, and Julia oddly wasn't up yet. I walked into her room to find her sleeping. Huh, that's odd. I shook her and she didn't wake up.

"Honey, wake up. You're scaring me." I whispered she stirred a little and woke up.

"Hi." she looked at me and coughed. I felt her head and she was burning up. She coughed again and shut her eyes. Something must be wrong. I picked her up, ran downstairs and got our things, which include my keys, purse, shoes, coat, and Julia's coat.

20 minutes later I was running into the hospital like a mad man.

"My daughter, she needs help!" I screamed . Some men in teal scrubs came and took her away from me. I tried following them but they stopped me and told me to fill out paper work. I really don't feel like doing that. I filled it all out, including the fathers name and birthdate. I sat in the waiting room with only a few tears going down my face now and then, to see Finn and her running to me.

"What happened?" he asked and hugged me.

" She wouldn't wake up this morning and when I went to wake her up, she had a fever. Why are you here?" I asked in tears. He looked taken back, and like he had something more to say, but he didn't.

"They called me." he said.

"You don't have to stay. I'm an adult, I handled her for four years myself. I don't want to ruin your Christmas." I said. He looked at me and smiled.

"No. She's my daughter too, I'm gonna stay with you." he said and his girlfriend flipped out.

"What?" she asked in disbelief.

"I was gonna tell you. I just never had time." he said. "Rachel, we're gonna go talk about this." he said and the two of them got up and walked away. I looked away, then ten seconds later, he was gone and my favorite blonde was running my way.

"Rachel!" she screamed with Puck following her.

"Quinn!" I smiled and hugged her. I know you're thinking Quinn and Puck?! Yes, we all worked out our differences and became friends. "What are you doing here?" I asked returning back to my sad tone of voice.

"Godparents were called." Puck chimed in smiling.

"Ugh, they're calling everyone." I rolled my eyes and they both knew who I was complaining about.

"Rachel are you okay?" Puck asked me squatting on the floor in front of me. I stayed silent. "Rachel! Are you okay?" he asked. I shook my head and he hugged me as I cried.

"Have they told you anything?" Quinn asked, sitting next to me.

"No." I said and she rubbed my back and joined in on the hug.
