Chapter 2

Okay its going to be okay, just go back out there and stay with Santana and Brittany, pretend like nothing happened. You can do this.

She smiled weakly at herself before sighing.

Lord help me.

She reached and pulled the bathroom door open, she didn't realise quite how long she had been in there for. Everyone was either settling down or had already passed out.

"Hey Puck, have you seen Britt and Santana?"

"Uh, downstairs, I think"

She walked past Mercedes bedroom, Mercedes, Kurt and Blaine were settled in her bed and Mike and Tina were curled up on the floor. A shout from Puck and she knew that him and Lauren would be taking the spare bedroom. Finally when she found Brittany and Santana they were snuggled up rather close on the coach. She hated to interrupt.

Great where am I going to sleep now.

She turned around climbing the stairs again holding the banister for support, as he was still a little tipsy. She found the dark shape of Mercedes and whispered

"Psst, Mercedes!"

There was no response.

Great this is just awesome, I don't even have enough money for a cab ride home. Plus mom would freak if I got home at this hour.

She tried again

"Mercedes! Please wake up a sec, there is no where to sleep, do you have a place for me?"

"Futon in the den" she managed to make out before Mercedes turned her back on her.

She whispered thanks before leaving the room, by the time she got to the den she realised someone was in there. She pushed the door open slowly just in case she saw something she didn't want to see. Peering through the crack in the door she saw Rachel standing with her back to her…in her underwear.

Okay why am I just standing here, walk away Quinn.

But her legs wouldn't move, her were glued on the brunettes body, her tanned skin, her small waist and legs that went on forever for someone so short. She gulped when she saw her dainty hands move around her back and unclasp her bra before slipping on a night shirt, which only just covered her butt. Quinn was so busy staring and taking in what she had just seen she didn't realise that Rachel was heading straight towards the door…where she was standing…watching her undress.

Shit shit run Quinn.

Her legs stayed glued to the floor.

"Oh Quinn, you scared me, are you okay? How long have you been there? What are you doing?

"Talk much Rachel, I was looking for a place to sleep but clearly this is taken"

She went to turn away before she heard Rachel say

"You can sleep here if you want? The futon is quite big, so there is room."

"I don't think so, man hands"

She was so tired and stood for a moment staring longingly at the futon.

"I…I wont tell anyone"

Quinn gave in all too quickly and walked into the room and sat down.

"Fine, but only because im so tired, I swear though Rachel if you tell anyone"

"Don't worry I know how important your reputation is to you Quinn"

She rolled her eyes and laid down on the bed. The room went pitch black and she felt the bed dip indicating Rachel had got in.

"Goodnight Quinn"

"Night Berry"

She turned facing the wall, it would be too awkward to lie there and face Rachel. She heard Rachel sigh and she felt hot breath hit the back of her neck giving her goose bumps. She slid further towards the wall away from Rachel.

"Quinn, how do you expect me to get my precious beauty sleep if you keep fidgeting?"

She smiled to herself.

Okay just lie here and let sleep come to you.

She laid there for what seemed like an eternity replaying images and events that had happened tonight. But she still couldn't shake off that she had defiantly felt something when Rachel had kissed her, and she may have felt something a little below the waist when she saw the brunette undressing. So carried away with her thoughts she didn't even realise she had fallen asleep, that was until she was awoken with a start. She turned around to see Rachel shaking, whispering things she couldn't quite hear.

"Rach"

Where did that come from, you never call her that.

"Rachel" She placed her hand on Rachel's shoulders gripping slightly.

"Wake up its just a dream"

The next thing that happened was completely out of her control. Rachel quickly threw her arm around her waist pulling her body closer. Her small hand settled at the base of Quinn's spine, she then proceeded to tuck her head into Quinn's chest.

Quinn didn't move, she didn't breath, she didn't know what to do. She knew she should make a fuss, wake her up and tell her to get off. But looking down at Rachel's face, so calm and content now, she didn't have the heart to. She smiled to herself again. Damn Rachel could be annoying but she was so cute and adorable. She had never noticed that.

Why am I even thinking this? Obviously I'm still thinking with my drunken brain, but wait I'm not even drunk anymore.

She looked down at Rachel's face again. Her eyes were immediately drawn to her lips, the memory of their kiss flooded her brain again. Her eyes raked further down and that's when she remembered, Rachel wasn't wearing a bra. She could make out her hardened nipped underneath her shirt. Quinn gulped. Could she do this? Before it seemed so wrong but now she didn't know why it wasn't. She slowly reached her hand up, her fingertips lightly tracing the exposed skin on Rachel's abdomen. Her skin was silky soft and so warm. She continued raising her hand further up her body and brushed the palm of her hand over her nipples. She looked at Rachel's face and saw no response. She let her hand fall back down this time brushing slightly harder. She saw her mouth open slightly and her breath hitch. Quinn smiled to herself, she knew she shouldn't be doing this but she couldn't deny she didn't love Rachel's reaction. She raised her hand to stroke again.

"Quinn what are you doing?"

Shit, fuck, shit, oh my god what have I done

"I, uh, well, um I was"

She wasn't the one for lost words but she couldn't sum up any up which would explain why she was doing what she was doing. Rachel opened her eyes and stared into Quinn's. She didn't know what to do, should she apologise, should she explain? She was so shocked when she saw Rachel smiling.

"Its okay" she ushered and took Quinn's hand into her own, "I knew I wasn't the only one who felt something when we kissed"

Quinn was so surprised at how bold she was being but then she remembered it was in her nature. She smiled and looked down at their fingers intertwined. It was in that moment Quinn never understood why she had ever been so mean to Rachel, calling her all those names, drawing pornographic pictures of her.

"I don't get it, why are you not laughing, why after everything are you not out there tight now telling everyone what just happened? You know if it was me I would."

"I know," She paused "I guess I just knew you felt something too and I didn't want to ruin that. Plus having two gay dads kind of makes me the type of person who doesn't go and out people."

There was silence.

"I don't know what to say," Quinn started " I don't know what this is, or quite how I feel about it, all I know is it doesn't feel wrong."

They stared into each others eyes, saying so much but not uttering a single word. Their hands remained intertwined until Rachel began to pull away.

Way to go Quinn, you should have just told her how you feel.

But the next thing she knew Rachel's hand was at the side of her neck pilling her face towards hers. She leaned in once again pushing her lips to Rachel's. The familiar tingle shot down her spine again. This time she didn't refrain from moaning when she felt Rachel's tongue slip into her mouth. The girl tasted amazing even when she hadn't consumed anymore alcohol. Quinn rolled onto Rachel so her head was above hers, she slipped in between her legs and couldn't help but notice how well they fit together. She began to pepper light kisses down her neck until she found her pulse point and sucked heavily. A loud moan erupted from Rachel's mouth which sent tingling sensations to Quinn's panties.

Well that's new

She needed more friction, closeness. She slowly began to rotate her hips into Rachel's pelvis before hands shot down and stopped her.

"I want to take things slow" Her eyes raked Quinn's face looking for any sign of concern or disappointment.

"no, of course Rach, I'm sorry"

"You called me Rach" she said grinning.

"So I did"

She leaned in and kissed the corner of Quinn's mouth as she rolled off her. She found Rachel's arm sneaking around her waist again and her head rested on Quinn's chest.

"I think we need to talk about this, and I mean really talk. Will you come over mine tomorrow please?"

"Okay but sleep now because its," she turned round to look at the clock "wow 4am"

And with that they both fell into a deep sleep.
