Happy Faberry week! To celebrate I'm going to write a series of drabbles in relation to the prompts!
For readers of my other stories, they're going to be updated starting next week. I have four days of my teaching placement to go but don't worry, my summer begins next Monday!

All the best,

Day One: Road Trip

"Rach, we have to set off now if we want to miss the rush hour traffic."

"You do realise I live in New York, it's always rush hour traffic," Rachel stated as she packed the last of her things. "Next time just let me get the train up to you and then we can set off from there."

"Where's the romance in that?" Quinn replied, wrapping her arms around the diva's waist from behind. "I just wanted to pick you up before driving home for the holidays." She mumbled against her neck before kissing it lightly. "Our first holiday together." She added.

"Mmmmmmmm." Rachel groaned lightly. "Do we have to go home?"

"I'm afraid so. Your Dads and my Mom were pretty psyched to have us home for the holiday." Quinn laughed as she released her girlfriend and allowed her to continue packing.

"I'm glad they know about us now. It's been hard trying to hide it."

"It was for the best, we didn't know how either family would take it. My Mom's not been known for making the best decisions when I've sprung stuff on her."

"Yeah I guess. I mean, I didn't want my Dads think I was just rebounding from Finn, but Finn and I had been broken up for seven months before we happened, there was never a thought in my mind that you were a rebound. I mean we didn't even get together until the start of second year, a little over three months ago."

"I know baby, trust me I know." She replied lightly kissing her girlfriend before wrapping her in a hug. "Three months? Feels like so much longer. I love you, Rachel Barbra Berry."

"I love you too."

"Let's go home." She whispered.

Forty minutes later and they were in Quinn's Prius; a congratulatory present from her grandparents for getting into Yale the previous year. "Did you make the mixtape?" The blonde asked as they pulled away from Rachel's apartment block.

"I compiled some of my favourite songs; some of your favourite songs; some of the greatest love songs; some of the greatest power ballads and others that escape me right now."

"A simple yes or no would suffice baby," Quinn laughed, kissing the diva lightly as she waited for the light to turn green.

"Sorry," The diva blushed when Quinn's lips left hers.

"Don't apologise, I think it's adorable." She smiled. "Unnecessary but adorable."

Rachel reclined in her seat and watched as the city lights of New York changed into the scenic surroundings of the state before joining the rest of the holiday traffic on the I-80.

"Why did we opt to drive home?" She mused as she fiddled with the iPod.

"So we could spend some quality time together?" Quinn replied.

"In hindsight, we could have definitely done that on an airplane,"

"We'd have been home sooner though, who knows how much time we're going to be able to spend alone in the next few days. With my Mom and your Dads spending so much time together lately I'm sure they've come up with some strategies to stop us being alone for too long."

"They assume we're going at it like rabbits, don't they?"

"Probably," Quinn laughed. Rachel's ability to be eloquent was lost when it came to discussing sex. That had certainly made their phone conversations interesting.

They got into Pennsylvania and the snow started to fall, lightly at first before it became heavier and heavier. "Quinn you need to pull over, it's getting too dangerous to drive in this."

"Let's just go a little bit further. If it isn't easing up by the next service station then I'll pull in, promise." She replied soothingly, reaching across she placed her hand on the diva's thigh. Instantly the diva flinched and forced her girlfriend's hand back onto the steering wheel. "Two hands on the wheel please, Quinn." Rachel reprimanded. Quinn smirked and made a show of gripping the steering wheel tighter.

"It's not easing up, just pull in here Quinn." Rachel said indicating to the side of the road a few miles on.

"We really shouldn't stop, Rach, we're never going to get home."

"It's either we stop or we risk our lives. I'm not ready to lose you yet, Fabray."

"If we stop and it continues to fall, we might get snowed in though; then we really are screwed."

"Don't look at it like that… You could think of it as you're stuck in a car with your girlfriend. The girlfriend you haven't seen for over a month."

"I like your way of thinking," Quinn replied mirroring the mischievous glint she saw in Rachel's eyes. Slowly she indicated off the road and into a layby. "I need to turn the engine off or I'll run the battery down, then we really will be stranded," she informed her. "I should have some blankets in the trunk. I'll go get them."

She hopped out of the car into the blizzard and ran around to the trunk. She sighed when she saw how much Rachel had packed for their short trip back to Lima. Two suitcases and an overnight bag; compared to Quinn's small overnight bag she wondered how she'd managed to force the trunk shut. She scrambled through everything and pulled the blankets out.

"You do know we're only going home for a few days, don't you?" Quinn asked as she dived back into the car. "You've packed for about a month." She added jokingly before reclining her seat and throwing one of the blankets over herself. "How long do you want us to wait here for?" The blonde asked.

"Until the worst of this blizzard stops."

"Have you checked the weather report?"

"We're out of range. The radio stopped working a few miles back and I have no service on my cell."

"Suppose we better get comfortable then, huh?" Quinn winked. She watched as the diva unbuckled her seatbelt and slid into the backseat. "Well aren't you going to join me?" She smirked.

"Quinnie! Rachel!" Judy exclaimed as they opened the door to the Fabray family home. "Where have you been? We expected you home hours ago! We were all beginning to worry."

"Rachel wanted us to stop in the middle of nowhere. We got caught in a bad blizzard."

"Safe now though." Rachel added as she placed her arm around her girlfriend's waist.

"Mom, I know you already know Rachel but I want to do this properly. Mom, this is Rachel, my girlfriend, Rachel this is my Mom, Judy."

"You're such a dork, Quinn." Rachel laughed as Judy enveloped them both in a hug. "However, just wait until you meet my Dads as my girlfriend." She joked.

Their first Christmas as a couple was filled with joy, love and family. Neither Quinn nor Rachel could wait until they hit the road again, back to New York, where they'd see in the New Year together for the first time. They just loved the idea of their next road trip.
