Emotions filled Quinn's heart after having one conversation with a boy. It wasn't even a conservation, only a few words were even spoken. It made Quinn wanted to know more about him. He was the perfect height, nice body, funny, and charming. When Quinn was walking home from the beach she saw a flyer for the pier, which included the roller coaster and ferris wheel, she knew she wanted to come back later that night. Hopefully, she would run into Puck.
Quinn started running back to her new home. She was very hungry and knew her father was probably cooking something for them. When she made it home, she went up the back staircase from the outside. After making it to the top of staircase, she could see her sister and father talking, while cooking food. Then all of sudden she heard her name mentioned, she put her ear against the door, and hid under the window so they couldn't see her.
"Dad, just remember, if you ever need help with Quinn just call me. I've had to deal with her the last couple of years without you and I know what she is capable of." Frannie said.
"It just to me she seems just fine, Frannie. I think she just isn't happy about moving. Leaving all her friends. Picking up everything and moving someplace you never knew is very challenging. You will know that once you go off to college, Fran." Russel responded.
"I don't think you understand dad. Quinn has had personality changes over the last year. Just beware."
"In my heart, I know that she was just acting out, because I left."
"She's crazy dad. I can't believe mom didn't ship her off earlier." Frannie said.
Once Quinn heard these hurtful words, she stood up, and barged open through the door. Both Frannie and her dad were surprised. Quinn had tears streaming down her face and raced up the stairs. She heard Frannie saying she was sorry, but Quinn knew that she didn't mean it. She jumped on her bed and cried into her pillow. After fifteen minutes a knock came upon her door, Quinn dared not to answer it.
"Hey Quinn, here's some food. If you aren't going to open the door I'm just going to leave it out here. I'm sorry you overheard my conservation and what I said." Frannie said. After Quinn knew Frannie was gone she went over to the door and opened it. She picked up her food and ate it. Quinn started rearranging her new room and after an hour or so she became tired and took a nap.
When Quinn woke up, she checked the time and decided to get ready to go down to the pier. She noticed she had a bathroom connected her room and decided to take a shower. After taking a shower she laid her clothes on her bed and decided to do her make-up and hair. Then she got herself dressed. She grabbed some money and charged down stairs. She saw her sister and dad watching television with one another. Quinn didn't even consider saying goodbye and ran out the door. In the distance she could see the pier and hoped she would find Puck. After a fifteen minute walk, she finally made it to the pier. Then she saw Puck, who was just standing by himself, she skipped over and tapped him on the shoulder. "Funny meeting you here." Quinn said.
"Oh well isn't the clutz." Puck responded.
"Hey you were the one who ran into me."
"You weren't watching where you walking."
"Well sorry. So do you always hang around here?"
"Usually when I'm not working. Or taking girls out."
"Oh so you have a girlfriend?"
"Why you asking? If I did would you be jealous?"
Quinn slapped him, "No."
"Well in that case I don't have a girlfriend. I just wanted to see your response. You wanna go on the ferris wheel with me?"
"I would love to." Quinn said as she smiled. They stood in line for 5 minutes then boarded the ride.
"After you." Puck said.
"Why thank you. Aren't you very chivalrous?" Quinn said.
"If I only I knew what that meant."
Quinn laughed at Puck's response, "It means you are very kind and respectful towards women."
"Thanks. So Quinn where are you from?"
"I'm from a suburb outside of Chicago."
"Really? You don't really have an accent."
"I know that's what everyone tells me. So have you lived in Georgia all your life? Because you definitely don't have a southern accent."
"You're right. I lived in Arizona for most of my childhood. Before my parents got a divorce. My parents had owned a restaurant and then they opened more. Though my dad got into drugs and what not and they divorced. My dad's side of the family was very rich and my dad's brother bought my mom a home here. Sometimes he even sends money to us. I haven't talked to my dad in years."
"I'm so sorry. My parents got a divorce around two years ago," Quinn said as she heard a loud thump, "What was that?"
"Oh look we aren't moving anymore. It must be broken. But hey look we're at the top. Kinda romantic."
"Shut up," Quinn said as Puck pushed her, "Hey stop."
"You know you aren't like the other girls. You actually are interesting."
"Is that a compliment?"
"Definitely. So why did you move here?"
"My mom decided to follow her boyfriend of one year to New York and instead of taking me with her, she shipped me to my dads."
"Harsh. I guess things aren't perfect for you either."
"I don't think I have experienced perfect in a long time. I've had some rough patches over the last couple of years. I couldn't take it when my parents divorce."
"You have no idea how much I hate my dad for doing that to my family. I thought I was having such a perfect life then boom it all came crashing down. Now my family struggles. My mom works three jobs and I have to work. Its not fair."
"I'm so sorry Puck. No one deserves that."
"I'm so glad I met you. You're the first person I've been able to talk about this stuff with."
"I'm glad I met you. I thought I was going to hate it here, but I met you and everything is just perfect," Quinn said then she felt ride move, "Hey look we're moving."
"So Quinn what are you doing tomorrow?"
"Nothing is on my calendar. How about you?"
"I have work 'till about three, but how about we meet up afterwards?"
"That sounds perfect," Quinn said as the ride ended, "Thanks for going on this ride with me. See you tomorrow, bye Puck."
"Bye Quinn."
Quinn fixed her hair and started walking home. She decided to talk off her flip flops and walk along the ocean. To Quinn this was the perfect night. When she finally got to her house, she noticed none of the lights were on. Everybody must be asleep. She carefully tip-toed up the stairs until she got to her room. Quinn turned on her light, threw her bag on her bed, and looked in her mirror. She started breathing really hard and screamed when she someone in the reflection. "What are you doing in here?" Quinn asked when she Frannie in the reflection.
"Well I needed to talk to you, sis." Frannie responded.
"I don't want to talk to you."
"Oh shut up Quinn. You know I followed you tonight."
"You did what?"
"Yeah, who was that guy?"
"No one."
"Quinn, are you really that stupid? You would really get with a guy. You've been here one day and that guy is bad news."
"You don't even know him."
"I know he's not good enough for you. Besides you can't be in love with him."
"Who said I was in love with him?"
"I can see it in your eyes."
"You don't know anything."
"Quinn I know you're going to get hurt. That's what boys do at the age. Look at me for example. Me and Lewis were perfect for one another. Now we are both going to different schools and he breaks up with me. He didn't even try to make things work. Even though we will be on opposites of this country I will still love him. Don't get involved with boys. Trust me."
"I'm going to do what I want to do. Sorry. Now goodnight."
"Quinn you're so stupid and next time I talk to mom, I will bring up this guy."
"You wouldn't?"
"I would. Night, sis."
Quinn was so mad at her sister. Why couldn't she just mind her own business? She actually liked Puck after talking to him. He made her happy and when she was with all her problems went away. He was something special.
Please Review! :)
