A/N: I don't own the prompt for this fic, it was filled at rq_meme at
Quinn wasn't at all surprised to find herself sitting on Rachel's bed, half asleep, and half in la la land, as Rachel went on and on about why she should be the big spoon when they cuddle. Quinn wouldn't have cared except she was already set for being the big spoon.
"And that is why I should be the big spoon while you be the little spoon. Quinn? Quinn are you even paying attention to me?" The blonde shook her head and wiped the sleep from her eyes before standing and walking to stand in front of Rachel.
"Of course I was." She said before sweeping the small brunette up in her arms and holding her to her chest while she rested her chin on top of her head, inhaling the Berry smelling shampoo that she loves so very much.
"Name one thing I said then." Rachel's voice was a muffled from her face being in Quinn's chest, and from the sleep that was fighting to take her.
"You wanna be the big spoon because you're more built or something like that." Rachel sighed but Quinn didn't give her time to discuss it any further before she was pulling her towards the bed.
"Quinn I'm being serious." Rachel said from her spot on top of Quinn's chest.
"Well don't be, we can take turns, it's just I'll be the big spoon most of the time." This earned her another huff from Rachel. She opened her eyes and peered down at the brunette who had her arms resting just above her breasts with her chin resting on top and big brown eyes staring right back at her.
"Oh come on Rachel you know you like being the little spoon." To prove her point Quinn flipped to her side and moved Rachel so she was laying right next to her, one of her arms wrapped in a protective grip over her waist, with the other hand resting under her head.
"Yes I do, I just want to protect you just as much as you protect me." All thoughts of sleep left Quinn's mind as she flipped Rachel over so she was looking down into brown eyes.
"Rachel as corny as it sounds but your love is all I need to protect me. With you by my side I feel as though I'm invincible." The blonde Cheerio leaned down and stole a slow, sweet, kiss from her before leaning back and smiling down at her.
"So does this mean I don't get to be the big spoon?" Quinn rolled her eyes at her before pulling her closer to her chest before resting her head on top of hers.
"Just let me be the big spoon." And while Rachel isn't use to just "giving in" she thinks this time, with her head tucked perfectly under Quinn's chin, and the heat the blonde's body giving off effectively putting her to sleep with the beat of her heartbeat on her fingertips, she'll gladly give in, although she plans on having another long talk with her girlfriend in the morning as to why she should be the big spoon every once and a while.
