-Rachel pov-
"Ok so this is what you want to do?" I look at Shelby and nod "Are you sure? Cause this can always be canceled and we can just watch musicals"

"Tomorrow night is musical night" I take a deep breath and nod as the doorbell rings "The guests are here! Beth be ready!"

"Love you goofball" I smile as Shelby gives me a hug holding Beth "Now go open the door"

I pull away and make my way to the door. I open it and smile at the sight. Everyone has followed the instructions on the invite. They all really cared enough to do it.

"Rach?" I look at mom and see her smiling "The song"

"Right" I wipe the tear that started to fall and look at the group "Wellll!"

-Rachel-Shelby-Both-
Ma cherie Mademoiselle,
It is with deepest pride and greatest pleasure
That we welcome you tonight.
And now, we invite you to relax,
Let us pull up a chair
As the dining room proudly presents -
Your dinner!

Be our guest!
Be our guest!
Put our service to the test
Tie your napkin 'round your neck, cherie
And we'll provide the rest

Soup du jour
Hot hors d'oeuvres
Why, we only live to serve
Try the grey stuff
It's delicious!
Don't believe me?
Ask the dishes

They can sing, sing, sing!
They can dance, dance, dance!
After all, Miss, this is France!
And the dinner here is never, never second best!

Come up!

Go on, unfold your menu
Go on, take a glance and then you'll
Be our guest
Oui, our guest
Be our guest!

Beef ragout,
Cheese souffle,
Pie and pudding "en flambe"
We'll prepare and serve with flair
A culinary cabaret!

You're alone
And you're scared
But the banquet's all prepared
No one's gloomy or complaining
While the flatware's entertaining

We tell jokes,
I do tricks!
With my fellow candlesticks
And it's all in perfect taste
That you can bet

Come on and lift your glass
You've won your own free pass
To be our guest
If you're stressed
It's fine dining we suggest!
Be our guest!
Be our guest!
Be our guest!

Life is so unnerving
For a servant who's not serving
He's not whole without a soul to wait upon
Ah, those good old days when we were useful
Suddenly those good old days are gone

Ten years we've been rusting
Needing so much more than dusting
Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills!
Most days we just lay around the castle
Flabby, fat and lazy
You walked in, and oops-a-daisy!

It's a guest!
It's a guest!
Sakes alive, well I'll be blessed!
Wine's been poured and thank the Lord
I've had the napkins freshly pressed

With dessert
She'll want tea
And my dear that's fine with me
While the cups do their soft-shoein'
I'll be bubbling, I'll be brewing

I'll get warm
Piping hot
Heaven's sakes! Is that a spot?
Clean it up!
We want the company impressed

We've got a lot to do!

Is it one lump or two?
For you, our guest!
She's our guest!
She's our guest!
She's our guest!

Be our guest
Be our guest
Our command is your request
It's been ten years since we've had anybody here
And we're obsessed

With your meal
With your ease
Yes, indeed, we aim to please
While the candlelight's still glowing
Let us help you
We'll keep going

Course by course!
One by one!
'Til you shout, "Enough! I'm done!"
Then we'll sing you off to sleep as you digest

Tonight you'll prop your feet up
But for now, let's eat up
Be our guest!
Be our guest!
Be our guest!
Please, be our guest!

"You all are our guest!" I smile as everyone claps "Thank you for coming dressed up! Come on in!"

"Lovely my hot candlestick" Santana comes in as the clock from beauty and the beast "Now find a way to kiss me since you stuck me in this tank of a costume"

"Easy" I turn and connect our lips "See"

"Separate" I glare at mom who returns it at me "Do not make me force you two apart during this"

"Fine" I lean close to where Santanas ear is a whisper into it "Maybe later I can have your coco bird pop out of you and into me"

Santana struggles to breath and I laugh. I give a hip bump and walk away from her. I have guests to attend to after all. This summer is going by too fast and I need to catch up.

Oh hey there is Kurt!

-Time skip-
So we have this set up to where the girls are the only ones left. It is late and still kind of sunny out. All of the guys are gone and I just want out of this candlestick costume.

"Pool is going!" I get up and smile "Privacy fence is also fully done! So if you are feeling froggy or have no bathing suit...well just jump in!"

I follow that up with just taking off the costume. I do not feel like slapping on layers again. I run out and jump into the pool. I turn to see some wide eyes and jaws dropped.

"It is a pool" I start floating on my back and close my eyes "You all can join me if you would like"

I know who the splash is and do not have to see Brittany surface. The next splash is a surprise though. I open a eye and get a bigger surprise seeing it is Quinn's mom. I was not expecting her to strip down.

"Do not have to tell me twice" Santana runs over after taking off the clock "CANNONBALL!"

We all cheer and laugh as she surfaces. Slowly the others join us while Maribel and mom sunbathe. Music gets turned on and we all just play in the pool. It feels nice to have girls to be comfortable around.

I do notice Judy and my mom sharing looks. Maybe I can get involved in that...I already have an evil plan.
