Quinn Fabray was good at keeping secrets. After all, no queen had ever let her subjects know that all wasn't well within her castle. She put on a brave face and let everyone believe her life was perfect in the palace, but the reality was far from it The fights at home had been going on for as long as she could remember.
At least once a week, her father would be late coming home from 'work', reeking of booze. While Quinn and Nadia cowered in their room, they could hear their crying mother as their father beat her in a drunken rage.
When she was four, Quinn made the mistake of telling her father to stop hitting her mother. The large bruise that was across her stomach for a month reminded her to never try it again.
But when things got bad, her big sister Nadia would always be there for her. At least, that's what she thought. But a few months after her father started beating, Nadia ran away from home. No warning, no note, she just packed up and left leaving Quinn alone with their unstable parents.
At night, Quinn's mother would sob into her shoulder, fretting that Quinn would be taken away from her if someone found out about the beatings. But as the 16 year old expertly covered the bruise on her cheek with make up, she realised no one would ever find out.
After all, Quinn Fabray was good at keeping secrets.
