AN:I own nothing.

This was a prompt given to me by lonelylady89.

I was shocked at how many of you liked this. I wasn't expecting such great feedback. :D

Also, sorry, I lied. This might be eight to ten chapters like "Flowers" and for those waiting for an update of my other stories I am going through writer's block. Please bare with me on them.

I also want to let you all know I plan on revamping the "Stevie series" while in this rut of writer's block. I might even add a few new pieces to it like when Rachel and Stevie were a couple.


CHAPTER 2

It didn't take long for parents to get involved. After all they lived in separate houses.

"Brittany why did you lock the two of them together?" Mrs. Pierce asks as they sit in Principal Figgins' office.

"Because they fight too much. They need to be friends." Brittany says and Rachel and Quinn exchange a look.

"I have offered many times in the past but Quinn has not accepted the offer." Rachel says going to cross her arms only to wince when Quinn tugs her wrist back.

Judy looks over at the Berry men and Rachel and Quinn gasp.

"You can't actually be considering letting this happen?" Quinn shouted.

"You two don't have the best past." Hiram interjects and Rachel gasps.

"Daddy!"

"All we are saying is that maybe this will help you get to that friendship place." Leroy adds and the two girls look at each other and huff going to cross their arms only for their connected wrists to pull against one another causing the metal cuff to dig into their skin.

"Ow! Stop that!" they cry.

"How can we go home and sleep if we are cuffed together?" Quinn asks then gasps. "How the hell are we supposed to go to the bathroom and shower?" Rachel gasps but Brittany sees the blushes they are both trying to hide.

"Language Quinn." Judy chastises and Quinn looks like a scolded child.

"We have completely different classes." Rachel says and Figgns' secretary comes in.

"I have the new schedules." She says handing them to Figgins and the girls gasp.

"This can't be happening!" Quinn groans. She cannot be cuffed to the girl she is trying so hard to not have feelings for. Even though she knows every tactic she has tried failed after feeling her heart break after witnessing the kiss at Nationals. Let's not forget to add that the two-Finn and Rachel-were now a couple again. And he deflowered her. The thought alone makes Quinn's blood boil.

"What do you think we should do about the housing?" Judy asked.

"We have a guest room on the ground floor." Leroy said and Judy nodded.

"Until this is resolved Brittany can stay with you. To make sure all is well." Mrs. Pierce offers and they nod.

"Dear god!" Quinn groans.

"Barbra save me." Rachel breathes out barely above a whisper.

Brittany packs enough for a month and whatever else she would need while staying at the Berry house. Lord Tubbington has to stay behind because Quinn's allergic to cats. That saddened Brittany but Mrs. Pierce promised to look after him.

Quinn and Rachel awkwardly stand in Quinn's room trying to pack the blonde's things.

"She could have at least left the key to my mom so I could pack." Quinn grumbled grabbing an old cheerios duffle bag.

"I can help if you want." Rachel offers and Quinn shrugs.

"Why not?" Quinn holds the duffle bag and Rachel takes the other end with her free hand that is not cuffed to Quinn and Quinn begins opening drawers and grabbing clothes. When she opens the top drawer Rachel respects her privacy and looks away as she grabs her undergarments. The petite diva tries not to blush. She wasn't going to lie. She always wondered what was under those tight cheerio outfits.


When they finally get the packing done they are back in Rachel's dad's Chevy. They pick up Brittany and head to the Berry house.

Brittany sets up in the guest room while Rachel leads Quinn to her room.

Quinn makes a face at all the Broadway décor and pink walls.

"If you want I can take down some of the posters." Rachel offers.

It makes Quinn smile knowing that the girl is willing to take down her prized Broadway necrophilia just to make her more comfortable. Then she remembers they are locked together.

"You don't have to." Quinn says quietly as she tosses her backpack and duffle bag to the floor at the foot of the queen sized bed.

Brittany walks in after leaving her bags in the guest room. "Hi." She smiles and the two give her incredulous looks. Brittany frowns. "I know you two aren't happy but I had to do something." Brittany said. "But as for when you need to do private stuff like showers the cuffs come off. If you have to go to the bathroom I'll take them off. When at school text me." Brittany says and the two just stare.

To make it worse for them the blonde is not joking.

True to her word Brittany uncuffs them when Rachel needs to use the bathroom.

"What about homework?" Quinn asks and Brittany makes a face as she thinks.

Rachel and Quinn aren't too keen on her thinking at the moment. After all her thinking got them where they are now. Locked together and in denial.

Brittany knows both girls are right handed and this was going to be a problem.

"Fine." She gives up. She can't think of a solution. "But when one of you finishes you have to stay cuffed to the other after." The girls frown deeply and grumble as they grab their books and Brittany uncuffs them.


It's worse when Santana finds out.

"Oh this is just too much!" She laughs as the two girls glare at her. "B this was genius."

"I just want them to be friends." Brittany shrugs.

"They'll kill each other first before that happens." Santana laughs clutching her sides as she sits beside Brittany on the love seat in the Berry living room.

"I'm going to bed." Rachel grumbles as she stands and Quinn follows.

When they get to Rachel's room they look at the handcuffs and back at their clothes.

"Damnit!" They curse and Quinn raises an eyebrow.

"Didn't think you swore Berry." Quinn said amusingly.

"I think now calls for such language." Rachel huffs pouting at their adjoined wrists hoping is she looks at it hard enough they'll go away.


After they manage to brush their teeth and wash their faces Brittany walks in and unlocks their wrists.

"Hurry and get dressed." Brittany says and they look at her as if she's crazy.

"What if we wake up at different times and need to use the bathroom?" Rachel asks.

Brittany just shrugs. They get dressed and Brittany locks their wrists together again.

"I have an early workout regimen." Rachel says and Brittany grins.

"We can all go jogging in the morning." She claps and leaves.

The two exchange looks before turning to the bed.

"I usually sleep on the left." Rachel shrugs and Quinn sighs.

She can't believe this. How is she supposed to sleep when the girl she loves is right beside her? She can do this.

They get in bed and stare at the ceiling. Neither girl is comfortable.

"This sucks!" Quinn hisses as Rachel turns off the lamp and darkness blankets the room with only the light from street lights and the moon coming from the window.

"I know this isn't your ideal moment and it isn't mine." Rachel said. "Why would they believe we can get along this way?"

"I don't know." Quinn says rolling her eyes. "Make us talk, get along and work together."

Rachel sighs and closes her eyes trying to sleep.


When Quinn hears the even breathing she knows the brunette is asleep. She lies on her side facing her. Their adjoined wrists between them on the bed. She watches the brunette. Taking in how peaceful she looks. She smiles and takes the chance and intertwines her fingers with Rachel's. The girl murmurs incoherently but doesn't wake. Quinn finds it adorable and closes her hand around Rachel's.

They fit perfectly.

The thought should panic Quinn. Had her father still been in the picture it would. But her mother is so much better and open minded now that he is gone. But would she be accepting of this?

Quinn fights back an audible laugh and her body shakes with silent laughter. Her mother handled the smoking, pink hair and the clothes. She handled the surprise hair cut with ease. She gave Quinn a double take and hummed before telling her she liked it. When she walked out of her room with pink hair Judy was shocked at first but asked her if she wanted eggs or hash browns with her bacon for breakfast.

Quinn slowly lifts their hands and brings them to rest by her head. Rachel stirs only to turn onto her side facing Quinn. Quinn smiles as she continues to look at their adjoined hands.

Soon she is asleep with a content smile on her face.
