AN: Hi everybody. So I have decided to make good on writing a sequel (of sorts) for "Puppy Love" If you haven't read "Puppy Love" then I ask: Why? (cries)

But seriously, if you haven't read it I'd suggest reading it before reading this. (And drop a review if you like, those are always nice)

This will probably essentially be a collection of one-shots with maybe some two-shots thrown in there. I don't actually have as many ideas written down as I'd like, but I really wanted to post something while I'm still in the process of working on my contributions for Faberry Week, and this is the result of that. It's pretty short, but hey, I just wrote the thing in the past couple hours.

But speaking of Faberry Week, I thus far have two one-shots that I really like. My other works are still in progress and need some work, and therefore (unless I get another urge to post something) don't expect any updates from me. But enough with that and enjoy.

Quinn was frowning. She was upset, that much Rachel knew and it worried her. Not once since the day that they got together had she seen Quinn without a smile on her face. Not once, unless you count the closet incident. But apart for that one time, there had not been a single moment where Quinn had shown the slightly sign of being unhappy.

And now she looked so sad. Any hopes that Rachel had of spending a relaxing afternoon with her girlfriend disappeared. It didn't even matter that she had already packed for a spontaneous picnic, clearly Quinn was in no mood to go on one. It broke Rachel's heart to see her like this and guessing by the look on Tony's face he felt the same. He whimpered, gaining Quinn's attention, who had previously been looking down at the floor.

"Oh, Rachel, Tony. Hi, I didn't see you there." She smiled; a forced one, Rachel could tell. She strode over to Quinn, taking a seat beside her. Tony followed and curled up at their feet. Rachel wrapped an arm around Quinn's shoulder and pulled her in so Quinn's head was resting on her shoulder.

"Is something wrong baby?" she asked, reassuring taking a hold of one of Quinn's hands and planting a kiss on the top of her head. Below them, Tony whined and nuzzled into Quinn's legs. Quinn shook her head. "Then why do you look so sad?" Rachel persisted, trying not to show her worry. The two of them had progressed so much in such a short time. It scared her that Quinn would start blocking her out now.

She felt Quinn move against her. Lips briefly fell upon her cheek. "It's nothing Rach," Quinn told her. "Really, it's no big deal," she assured once more, taking hold of Rachel's hands. She leaned in for a kiss, but Rachel quickly pulled away.

"So there is something wrong?" she asked, despite her desire to pretend that everything was all right. Quinn opened her mouth for a retort but stopped. She was a smart girl. She knew that she had chosen a poor set of words. "Talk to me Quinn?" Rachel tried. "Tell me what's wrong." Below them Tony nudged Quinn's leg with his head.

*bark*

"It's nothing," Quinn said again, shaking her head. "Really Rachel, it's silly. You and Tony don't have to worry about it."

"You know I already am." Quinn ducked her head shamefully, causing Rachel to regret her words. The last thing Rachel wanted to do right now would be to make Quinn feel guilty. "Quinn," she began to apologize when suddenly Quinn clapped a hand over her mouth. The action was surprising to say the least, and under different circumstances Rachel would have been mad at being interrupted in such a way. But this was Quinn.

"Don't," she pleaded. "Please don't. You don't have anything to apologize for. And I hate seeing you sad." Below them Tony whimpered. "I hate seeing you sad too, Tony," Quinn added. Tony contentedly nuzzled into Quinn's leg. "I promise you Rachel it's nothing, okay?" Rachel wanted to nod, to believe and trust Quinn as she had for the past couple months. But she couldn't, not without imagining the worst. Quinn slowly nodded in acknowledgement. "Okay, what do I have to do to make you stop worrying?" she asked, removing her hand from over Rachel's mouth.

"Just tell me what's wrong." Quinn turned away. Rachel fought the urge to sigh. Her girlfriend could be so stubborn sometimes. "How about this? If you tell me, we can do whatever you want tomorrow." Even without being able to see her face, Rachel noticed how Quinn instantly perked up at the offer.

"Anything I want?" Quinn hesitantly asked. Rachel nodded without a second thought. "I- I- Okay," Quinn gave in. "But promise me that you won't get upset or anything."

"I promise Quinn."

"All right." She took a deep breath. "Well, you know that my mom's been surprisingly supportive of us." Rachel nodded, urging her girlfriend to continue. "She hasn't been awkward about us and hasn't even said a single thing against me being gay. And you've seen, she doesn't have any problem with us being together and she's even okay with us closing the door to my room." She was rambling and with each word Rachel felt her chest tightening up.

"She didn't…" The words got caught in her throat. Rachel couldn't bear the thought of Quinn being disowned a second time. Tears began welling up in her eyes. She heard Quinn gasp and suddenly pull her into her arms.

"No, no, no. It's nothing like that," she assured, soothingly rocking back and forth, but tears were already falling down Rachel's face. Quinn began kissing them away when she felt Tony nudge her leg.

*bark*

She lifted him up and presented him to Rachel. He got into Rachel's face and started lapping at her face while Quinn hugged them both. Together they managed to calm Rachel down. Rachel wiped away a few stray tears before tightly hugging Tony to her body. "I'm sorry. It's just the first thing I thought of when you mentioned your mom was-"

"I know," Quinn interrupted. "But it's not like that. My mom's been really supportive. She's even started learning to make some vegan dishes so she'll be able to cook for you whenever you come over."

"Well, that's good."

"Yeah, I know."

"But what's the problem then?" Rachel began to worry again.

"The thing is, my mom hasn't cooked anything but vegan stuff for the past few weeks." Rachel nodded her acknowledgement although she didn't quite understand where this was going. "So she's been trying out different stuff when she goes grocery shopping, and well… I don't approve of all my eating habits and you might actually be glad about this, but… I really miss my bacon."

"Oh." Rachel removed one arm from around Tony and wrapped it around Quinn. "It's okay baby. It's understandable that you'd miss bacon. I'm not mad," she assured, hugging Quinn closer as Tony nuzzled into Quinn. "Besides there's always bacon substitute." In a flash, Tony was out of her arms and running for the door.

*bark bark*

"Tony, what are you doing?" Rachel called.

*bark bark*

Quinn got to her feet to retrieve him, but Tony darted down the stairs and to the front door. The girls chased after him, both of them wearing confused looks at Tony's actions. It appeared as though he wanted to go outside. Through silent conversation, they agreed to let him out. Quinn opened the door and Tony sped to Rachel's car.

*bark bark*

He eagerly pawed at the door, which Rachel soon opened. Tony jumped inside and went for the picnic basket. A moment later he popped out with a bag of 'Beggin Strips' between his teeth. He proudly presented it to Quinn. Both girls giggled.

"Oh Tony, that's sweet," Quinn cooed, squatting down to pet him. "But this is yours." She took the bag from his mouth and reached in to offer him a piece. "Thanks anyway boy." Quinn then turned her attention to Rachel. "So what's with the picnic basket?"

"I thought we spend some time in the park."

"Sounds good to me."

"Great!" Rachel began to go around to the driver's seat, but was stopped by a hand on her wrist.

"But… can I get a BLT on the way there?"

AN: I'd still appreciate ideas that I could use for this fic so if you have any feel free to offer them. And Thanks.
