The Lies You Tell

She paced the floor in her bathroom playing with the gold cross at her neck. She bit her lip waiting for the timer on her phone to go off. "Come on" She whispered desperately. Finally the alarm on her phone rung and she picked up the purple and white stick with her eyes closed. "Please" She whispered like a prayer. She opened her eyes and instantly felt the hot prick of tears behind them. This couldn't be happening, not to her! This only happened in movies or books, it didn't happen to the president of the celibacy club, or the captain of the cheerleading squad. It didn't happen to Quinn Fabray. But it was happening. This was the third test she'd taken this week and everyone had read the same. There was no denying it, she was pregnant. Not only that, but let's just say she'd made a few mistakes this summer and now it was a bit of a mystery who's baby it actually was. She knew she could rule out Finn, but then there was Noah Puckerman... and one other person whom she chose not to think about right at the moment. Quinn finished getting dressed and grabbed her bag to head to school.

On the way there she thought about all that had happened in the past few week and how it all lead to her getting into the situation that she was currently in. Quinn pulled into her parking spot and then went into the school to get a late pass. She headed to her class which at this moment happened to be Spanish. She took a breath and opened the door knowing people would stare. She walked in and handed the pass to Mr. Shue. He didn't say anything as he took the pass and placed it on his desk, his eyes wouldn't even meet hers. She sat down in her seat and as he taught she noticed that not once did Will Shuester look her way. She tried to focus on the class but found it difficult with the test results from that morning weighing heavily on her mind. As Mr. Shue taught she doodled in the margins of her notebook losing herself in her thoughts.

The bell rung and Quinn slowly made her way out of the classroom. She stopped off at her locker to pick up a few books and then made her way to lunch. She looked around the cafeteria feeling out of place. She looked over at the table of cheerleaders and jocks who were probably expecting her to come over to their table, but then she looked at the table of her newly found "friends" from glee club and wondered if that was where she should be. No, neither of those places did she feel like she really belonged. The cheerleaders accepted her because she was pretty and was a good leader, but she knew if given the chance they would take her place. Not a single person at that table would be there for her once they found out her secret. Then there was the glee club, they didn't accept her. They were too afraid of her ruining them because she was a cheerleader, but they would be there if she told them her secret... Quinn decided against sitting with either of them and made her way to the auditorium with her lunch.

She sat at the table made for directing or judging during a competition and sat down. She pulled her salad out of her bag and a fork along with her bottle of water. She ate in peace until she heard the doors open behind her. Quinn turned around to see someone walking towards the table. They seemed distracted as they made their way down the stairs and just as they got close is when she could make out who it was. It was Will Shuester. He looked up from whatever he was busying himself with earlier and seemed to notice her for the first time, "Oh hey Quinn, I didn't see you there. Is everything okay? How come you're not eating in the cafeteria?" He asked seemingly concerned.

"I could ask you the same thing" Quinn replied simply.

"Fair enough" He replied taking the second seat beside her, "So um... how are you?" Will asked trying to make small talk.

"I'm... okay" Quinn admitted.

"Just okay?" Will inquired.

"Yes, just okay... How are you?" Quinn bit her lip.

"Great... I guess. It's just already been a long day" He sat back in the chair and started pulling his own lunch from a brown bag. They sat in an awkward silence for a while before Will spoke again, "Do you want half of my brownie?" He offered. Quinn looked at it in his hand and thought about it, "Sure" she shrugged. He handed her a half and took a bite of the piece he'd kept for himself.

"I'm sorry if I'm bothering you by being in here, I didn't know you ate lunch in here" Quinn spoke softly her hazel eyes meeting his.

"You're not bothering me... I usually don't eat in here, but I did today because I just needed to think" Will shrugged.

"About?" she raised an eyebrow.

"Honestly?" Will sighed, "I was thinking about what happened between you and I this summer... it was wrong Quinn and I just... I don't want to hurt you but it was a mistake. I'm married and I'm your teacher." Will ran a hand through his hair.

Quinn felt her eyes well up with tears, she looked down at her stomach "I-I know... I'm sorry" She whispered.

"It's not your fault... I thought... never mind what I thought because it doesn't matter. My wife, Terri, she's pregnant... and that changes everything". Quinn felt her breath hitch and she couldn't help the tiny whimper that escaped her throat."Quinn don't do this! I already feel guilty about everything and you're only making it worse"

"I'm sorry" Quinn gasped. She stood up and grabbed her bag hurrying out of the auditorium before she could tell him anything else. She went into the bathroom shutting the stall door and locking it behind her. She sank down against the door and cried unable to stop the flow of tears. She heard the door to the bathroom open and she covered her mouth so that no one could hear her crying. She heard footsteps walking towards her stall and held her breath.

"Quinn?" a familiar voice asked, "Quinn? Its me Puck... I was walking out of the lunchroom and I saw you coming down the hall crying... Are you alright?" He asked gently. She didn't reply, keeping her hand on her mouth to keep from crying out. "Its okay if you don't want to talk to me about it, I know I haven't always been the best guy to talk to... but did someone hurt you? Should I beat 'em up for you?" He laughed softly.

Quinn closed her eyes lightly and was able to remove her hand from her mouth. "Okay... no reply... should I bust down this door or will you just come out and tell me what's wrong?" He smirked to himself just wishing to hear her melodic laugh. "Okay that's it... I'm coming in." Puck stated. She heard a shuffling on the other side of the door as Puck sank down and crawled underneath the door.

Quinn turned her face away from him. "Hey" he whispered pulling her to face him, "Tell me what's wrong" he stated. Quinn finally looked at him and could tell that he was really trying to be a nice guy for her. She bit her lip and wiped at her already smeared makeup.

"I am so stupid" Quinn mumbled putting her head against the door.

"Why do you say that?" He asked.

"Because I managed to make several mistakes this summer and one of them is going to change my life forever and there is not a single thing that I can do about it" Quinn felt more tears slip down her cheeks.

"You're Quinn Fabray, there isn't one thing that you can't fix" Puck told her ignoring her comment about two mistakes during the summer and his thoughts that wondered if one of them was him. "This... This I really cannot fix" she bit her lip and pulled her knees to her chest.

"I'm sorry... I shouldn't be talking to you about this... I shouldn't be talking to anyone about this." She ran a hand through her hair continuing to talk.

"Why can't you tell me?" Puck asked her.

"I can't tell anyone... I don't know how... and if I say it, then it will make it true then everyone will know and my life will change forever" Quinn spoke to herself more than she was speaking to Puck at this point. Quinn was interrupted from her thoughts when the bell ending lunch rang.

"You should go" Quinn told him.

"We should go... it's time for glee. That might make you feel better" Puck suggested.

"I can walk with you" He added trying to get her to move from the bathroom floor.

"I don't want to Puck... Not like this" Quinn muttered pointing to the mascara she knew was smeared all over her face.

"I'll help you clean up and then we can go to glee"

"I don't want to go" Quinn huffed more because she didn't want to see Mr. Shue than anything.

"Come on Q... don't make me sit in that room of losers alone" Puck fake pouted. Quinn looked at him and found that she just didn't have the strength to argue anymore.

A few minutes later, the two walked in together, Puck carrying Quinn's bag. Quinn avoided all of the questioning gazes as they took their seats towards the back of the choir room. Quinn took special care to avoid the eyes of Finn from the front row. She knew that he'd have some questions for her seeing her with Puck. Mr. Shue cleared his throat and continued with his lesson plans, "So um as I was saying, this week's theme is singing to tell someone how you really feel." His eyes rested on Quinn's for a moment before he continued his scan around the room. "I want all of you to find a song that just expresses everything you've been feeling that you can't find the right words for. I think that music can do that for us, it can give us words when we can't find any on our own. So, that is your assignment this week. You have the rest of the period to start working on it." Will put all of his sheet music together and sat down in a chair at the corner of the room.

As soon as he was seated Finn made his way over to Quinn, "Hey... where were you?" he asked shooting a glance over at Puck.

"I-"

"She got sick during lunch and just went in to see if she was okay... then I walked her to class" Puck interrupted.

"Oh okay thanks man... I'm sorry Q... If I would have known I would have come to help you" Finn frowned and rubbed Quinn's back softly.

Quinn just nodded, her eyes were on something else... rather someone else. She couldn't stop glancing towards Will fuming over the stack of papers in his hands. She glanced around the room trying to remain inconspicuous, then she caught Rachel Berry looking over at Finn. She spotted the obvious jealous look that was plastered along Rachel's face. Rachel liked Finn... Rachel was jealous of Quinn. 'Oh if only she knew' Quinn thought to herself.

Quinn turned back to Finn, "Look I'm fine... I just really need some space. It's really hot in here and I just... need to breathe" Quinn stated calmly.

Finn stared at her dumbfounded, "Um... okay... do you need anything? Like water or something?" he asked wondering why Quinn was pushing him away.

She shook her head, "No. I told you I'm fine. I just need space" She repeated getting slightly annoyed.

"Well do you need a ride home this afternoon? I could buy you some dinner or something" Finn offered.

Quinn gritted her teeth, "I said leave me alone" she snapped standing up and walking away from Finn.

Puck looked over and smirked at the scene. He knew Quinn and Finn would never last, Finn was a boy and what Quinn needed was a man. This one little outburst would be the beginning of the end Puck thought to himself sitting back in his chair. He watched Quinn leave the room and then Finn follow after her. He waited a few minutes before he asked Mr. Shue if he could use the restroom. He walked around the hall stopping out of sight of Quinn and Finn, but not out of ear shot.

"Quinn wait! What's wrong?"

"What's wrong? What's wrong is that I said I needed some space Finn!" Quinn snapped.

"I feel like it's more than that. You're never sick and all of a sudden you're sick during lunch and Puck was there to help? You can't stand the guy how did he end up helping you and then helping you to class?" Finn countered.

"He just happened to see me when I was upset!" Quinn blurted out without thinking.

"Upset? I thought you said you were sick" Finn's voice fell softer.

"I meant sick" Quinn's voice had lost some of it's strength as she realized her mistake.

"What were you upset about? And why was Puck the one to comfort you huh? Don't lie to me Quinn" Finn's eyes were intense as they met with hers and she couldn't hide the secret anymore.

"I-I'm pregnant" Tears began to slip down Quinn's cheeks.

"Is it mine?" Finn asked in a whisper, his whole world seemingly falling apart.

Quinn hesitated, "Yes. Who else?" Quinn bit her lip.

"I don't know Pucks?"

"No, Puck wasn't lying about being in the hall... he just happened to be there, I think he was trying to be nice" Quinn bit her lip harder knowing that she was lying straight to Finn's face.

Puck had heard everything and he stopped, his breath catching in his throat. Quinn's words echoed in his head, "I'm pregnant." and he knew that the baby growing inside Quinn was not Finn's. There was no way. He knew that the baby had to be his, it had to. Finn told him everything, and sometimes too much, but he knew that Finn and Quinn had never really done anything. Now, Puck and Quinn...that was an entirely different story, some crazy night... a dinner party and for the first time Quinn wanted him... so it went a little farther than he expected and now there were consequences. He listened to Quinn's insane story about how it had happened between her and Finn. Something about hot tubs and Finn's idiotic self bought the whole story. Puck rolled his eyes, he wanted to say something. He knew that Quinn knew just as well as he did that the baby was his, but then again, if Quinn were telling Finn there had to be a good reason for it. Who ever knew what went through the mind of Quinn Fabray?

The next day in glee club Mr. Shue stood at front of the choir room, "Alright so today we start our performances, I think I will begin" He smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. The other kids clapped and cheered as he got ready to perform. The music started and his voice filled the room, "Young Teacher The Subject of schoolgirl fantasy she wants him so badly knows what she wants to be With all the charms of a woman (oohh) you've kept the secret of your youth (aaaahhhh) Bookmark it she is so close now This Girl Is Half His Age Don't Stand, Don't Stand So, Don't Stand So Close To Me Young Girl You're Out of Your Mind Your Love For Me Is Way Out Of Line Better Run Girl, You're Much Too Young Girl (Young Girl)"

Quinn realized that this song was about her almost immediately. Why he was singing it to the entire glee club, she didn't know. She continued to listen, "Temptation, Frustration So Bad It Makes Him Cry!", Quinn knew that the particular line he'd just sang was literally directed at her. His eyes looked into hers and she could see the pain of what they'd done beneath them. He was hurt just as much as she was and for a second he could share that with her. He continued to sing,"Beneath Your Perfume And Make Up (ooohh) You're Just A Baby In Disguise (ahhhh) Get Out of Here Before You Have the time to change your mind (Ahhhh) Cause I'm Afraid You'll Go too far Don't Stand, Don't Stand So, Don't Stand So Close to me! Young Girl You're Out of Your Mind Your Love For me Is Way Out of Line Better Run Girl! You're Much Too Young Girl! Don't Stand, Don't Stand So, Don't Stand So Close To Me! You're Much Too Young Girl! Don't Stand, Don't Stand So, Don't Stand So Close To Me!) You're Much Too Young... Girl"

"Wow, Mr. Shue... that was... intense" Finn clapped. "But um... why did you sing that?" Everyone sat up in their seats curious to know.

"I just... I noticed this girl in my class doing the same thing that this girl Pepper did a few years ago... and I had to let out my frustration. I never want anyone to get hurt and I don't want to hurt a young girl, but I'm a teacher so... anyway it's no one in here but I appreciate you guys letting me get my frustration out." Mr. Shue replied with a fake smile. "So, who's next?" he asked.

A few others performed that day but Quinn hardly paid attention. All she could think about was Will's song. Sure he'd been able to hide it well, but she knew what it was about. She tried not to be angry, but as soon as Rachel finished singing. Quinn raised her hand to sing next. "Great!" Will tried to keep the smile as Quinn spoke to the band quickly and then went to the front of the room.

Two can play this game. She thought just before she began singing.

"Set me free, why don't ya, baby? Get out my life, why don't ya, baby? 'Cause you don't really love me You just keep me hangin' on You don't really need me But you keep me hangin' on Why do you keep a coming around Playing with my heart? Why don't you get out of my life And let me make a new start? Let me get over you the way you've gotten over me Set me free, why don't ya, babe? Let me be, why don't ya, babe? Cause you don't really love me You just keep me hangin' on No, you don't really want me You just keep me hangin' on You say although we broke up You still wanna be just friends But how can we still be friends When seeing you only breaks my heart again? And there ain't nothing I can do about it Set me free, why don't ya, babe? Get out of my life, why don't ya, babe? You don't really love me But you just keep me hangin' on You claim you still care for me But your heart and soul needs to be free Now that you've got your freedom You wanna still hold on to me You don't want me for yourself So let me find somebody else, hey Why don't you be a man about it and set me free? No, you don't care a thing about me You're just using me Go on, get out, get out of my life And let me sleep at night Please, 'cause you don't really love me You just keep me hangin' on" When she finished she was out of breath, but she knew that she felt better. Singing released the tension from the last few days and she couldn't help but feel a tiny weight lifted off her shoulders. That was until she saw three puzzled looks. One from Finn, one from Puck, and one from Will. She wasn't sure which one made her more nervous.

So the first chapter... what do you guys think of this little love squareish thing I've got going on? I hope you enjoyed and will continue to read this fanfic as well as the other one I have going.
