"Tony wait."

"I'll try to be home early, Birdy, I promise." He's tying his tie as they cross the kitchen from upstairs. Rachel hasn't even gotten dressed yet, still in her blue nighty. He's walking pretty fast, and Rachel's taking two steps for every one of his, barefoot and so tiny as she chases him through the kitchen while he tries to grab a quick breakfast.

"You always say that and it never happens. It's your day off, Tony! You promised me today!" She reaches over to try and pry the milk out of his hand but he jerks away, slamming it down on the counter.

"This is my job!"

"I"m your wife!" She slams both hands down on the counter, the noise covering the crack in her voice. "I'm your wife, and you made me a promise. Robbie is a completely capable TA, you just can't let him handle the class for one half day because you're a control freak!" Tony whips around so fast that Rachel actually flinches, but all he does is stare her down for a good long minute. Grabbing the milk again, he almost throws it back into the fridge, slamming the door and stalking across the kitchen. "I'll grab something on the way."

"Tony, don't. Please don't. Stay home. Robbie can handle the class for today! You only have 3 classes because of the assembly. You said so yourself."

"We'll talk about it when I get home."

"What will there be to talk abou-" He shuts the front door behind himself. Hard. And she's left standing in the threshold between the kitchen and the living room, hands fisted as her side, shaking as she tries not to cry.

It's almost like it's a brand new feeling, quite honestly. The bright flash of cold, the sudden, faint pain in her eyes, the shiver in her spine as the slushee drips down her back. The new parts, though, are Quinn's warning cry just before hand, her own surprised scream, the yelling from who she assumes is her assaulter just behind her...the frantic kicking in her belly as her heartbeat kicks up. She doesn't really register what's going on around her, doesn't have the presence of mind to leave the library. She can hear Quinn's voice over the yelling of the other girl, and then there's more screaming -- sounds like spanish but everything is foreign to Rachel's ears right now except "The bitch is faking. She couldn't keep him so she's faking" -- and someone's coat is over her shoulders -- oh, right. Her dress is white today and totally see-through now in places... -- as she's being led out of the room. She thinks it's Brittany on one side and Quinn on the other, although whoever she thinks is Quinn is gone pretty soon and Brittany's on the phone with someone.

"Phones aren't allowed at school, Br-Oh Rachel." Ms. Pilsbury comes from behind them, ushering them both into the bathroom and when Kurt comes running up, she doesn't even blink when he enters right behind them. He says Mercedes and Tina are coming but Rachel's not really paying attention. Through the walls and the half open door she can hear all of the commotion in the hall while Kurt and Brittany try to clean her up, even if Rachel's just sitting helplessly on the windowsill, not moving, not saying a word, mouth working half open and closed again helplessly.

"Puck!' Quinn makes it to the cafeteria about the same time that the news does, and there's a rush of people heading to the library to try and catch the fight before someone breaks it up. It's obvious he doesn't know yet, since he's looking just about as enthused as the rest of the crowd as he walks towards the library.

Rachel Berry has never in her life had heartburn. She's never eaten meat. She hasn't thrown up since she was 10 and she's never had a nosebleed, aside from that one time Finn elbowed her in the face.

Until the last two months, of course. When she found out she was pregnant. And turned into a completely different person, complete with nasuea, meat cravings (she's a vegan for Christ's sake!), heartburn and that nosebleed in the middle of biology. Right now, though? She can't even look at her ants on a log snack. That she's been thinking about since 3rd period. The sight of the celery and peanut butter makes her sick and she honestly wants to cry.

"Noah."
