I'll be here
(Set after 'Bad Reputation')
Quinn was sitting in Spanish class, this class had recently become pointless, Quinn never learned anything from it, she might as well just sit there and do nothing, but she was actually quite smart, even though people expected her to be a 'dum blonde' because she was the ex-captain of the cheerio's and used to go round constantly making peoples lives a misery, but Quinn actually got straight A's in most classes, especially since she had been kicked off of the cheerio's because she had started paying more attention in class afterwards, she didn't want to let her grades slip again, so she continued to pay attention and do the work even though she was so bored.
She felt something touch her back, she tried not to let it annoy her because Karofsky's latest habit was to keep hitting her back, until she turned round and yelled at him, but she didn't like loosing her temper, so she tried not to let it bother her, also he liked sticking things on her back that said immature things like 'Kick me' or 'Punch me' and no one would bother to tell her they were there, which was equally annoying, and embarrassing. The tapping kept going, and going, and going, for about another 15 minutes, Quinn had enough so she turned around
"Screw you Karofsky, your just imma…"
Then she saw Jesse smiling at her
"Oh Jesse, im sorry I thought it was Karofsky, he usually sits there, have you two swapped places or something?"
She looked slightly confused as to why Jesse was sitting behind her, but she was glad that he was so she wouldn't get bothered anymore
"No we haven't, he's not here today, so I decided to sit here instead, I was just wondering if you would help me with this question? Your probably the smartest in the class"
Jesse said with his massive smile beaming at her, she looked him in the eyes
"Are you flirting with me Jesse? Because im not interested, I have a boyfriend, but yes I will help you, what do you need help with?"
Jesse then looked shocked at Quinn saying he was flirting, but he obviously was
"No, im not flirting, I just want some help, so will you help me now? I need help with question 4"
Quinn was relived he wasn't flirting with her, because if he was she might just fall for him, and she was going out with Puck and having his baby, and falling for Jesse would be so unfair on him, she turned to Jesse again and said
"Okay, question 4, lets see"
She scribbled a load of stuff down on his piece of paper and then said
"And that's what the answer is, it's pretty simple"
But he still looked really confused, she giggled at the expression on his face
"Okay, lets try again"
And she scribbled some more stuff down on his piece of paper, but more simplified this time, so hopefully he would understand
"Do you understand now?"
He nodded and then ran his fingers through her golden blonde hair, and smiled
"Your hair, wow, its so soft"
Jesse said still running his fingers through her hair, she stared into his blue/green eyes and nearly got lost in them, she went into a daydream, but then said
"Thanks, err…"
But then she didn't know what to say next, she suddenly felt a strong pain in her stomach, she grabbed the table and screwed up her face
"Are you okay Quinn?"
Jesse said as he placed his hand on her swollen belly and started rubbing it as he had seen her do before, she muttered
"Err… I don't know…"
Jesse then called the teacher over
"Quinn's in pain, can she go to the nurse's office?"
Jesse shouted to the teacher, Quinn grabbed Jesse's arm and clenched the fist of her other hand, the teacher turned around to look at her
"Are you okay Quinn?"
She asked, Quinn just said sarcastically
"Of course im okay"
The teacher didn't understand
"No, im not"
Quinn said, hoping that the teacher would understand that and let her go to the nurse,
"Well, you'd better go then, Mr St. James, do you want to go with her?"
But Quinn shouted
"NO"
And made her way out of the room.
She stood outside for a bit, and then the door of the classroom opened and Jesse came out of it,
"What are you doing?"
Quinn said getting rather angry with him, but as soon as she looked up at him, she found her self getting lost in his eyes again as he said
"Im coming to help you, its clear you need it, you haven't moved"
And then he put his hand on her shoulder and started rubbing it gently,
"I've broken up with Rachel remember, but yet im still at this school, why do you think that is?"
He took his hand off of her shoulder and gently rested it on her swollen belly, but Quinn grabbed his hand and moved it away
"You are flirting with me"
She said starting to get angry again
"You said you weren't, I was stupid to believe you, nothing you say is true, you're a Carmel kid and you always will be"
Jesse looked down at the floor, he wasn't sure what to say to that, he had said he wasn't, that was clearly a mistake, but he hadn't done anything else, he didn't think
"Err…im sorry Quinn, it's just, im in love with you, I have only stayed at McKinley this long for you, but I have had to keep it secret because your going out with Puck and all and I was going out with Rachel"
He ran his fingers through her hair again, and then took a deep breath the inhale the smell of lavender that was coming from it
"Your hair smells nice"
Jesse said, Quinn giggled
"Err…thanks, why are you telling me this exactly"
She said, whilst giggling again, but she quickly stopped when she felt the same pain she had felt in the classroom 5 minutes earlier, she grabbed Jesse's arm
"Lets get you to the nurse"
Jesse said, and then they walked down the hallway to the nurse's office.
When they got to the nurse's office, Quinn sat down on the bed in there, while Jesse talked to the nurse
"She got this bad pain in class"
The nurse walked over to Quinn
"Where did it hurt sweetie?"
The nurse rested her hand gently on Quinn's belly
"Here"
Quinn pointed to her lower stomach where the pain had been, the nurse did some minor tests and then said
"Nothing seems to be wrong, just hormones, you don't need to worry, but if it happens again, you can come here an lie down for a bit, I will give you a note to give to your teachers"
Quinn looked at Jesse and smiled
"Thanks Jesse" she ran her hands through the soft curls of his hair
"Your hair is soft too"
She said and then they both started laughing, they started hugging, Quinn was smiling at Jesse, she thought she was actually starting to fall for him, they leant into each other as if they were going to kiss, Jesse placed his hand on Quinn's cheek and Quinn pulled herself closer to him, they started to kiss, but then Quinn backed away quickly
"No, no, I cant do this, im sorry Jesse, its just not fair on Puck"
She hugged him again,
"I would love for us to be friends though, your great Jesse, and if I wasn't with Puck, then maybe, there would be a chance for us, but…as Im with Puck…sorry Jesse"
She ran her fingers through his hair again
"Okay, but if you ever break up with Puck, im gonna be here waiting for you, well not here but you know what I mean" Jesse said smiling at Quinn as she walked out.
