Chapter 4.
Once Quinn got home she headed straight to her room. She heard her mother call after her asking how her day was and she just replied "Fine." over her shoulder and continued on her way. Once she got to her room she stripped her uniform off and walked to her dresser to find something more comfortable. She browsed for a moment before deciding to throw on a Paramore tee-shirt and some comfortable sleep shorts. Forgetting about her mother and everything else, she threw herself on her bed and sighed.
"Quinnie!" Judy Fabray called. "Dinner will be ready shortly." Quinn sighed and rolled her eyes. "Okay mom!" was her only answer.
Shortly she heard her phone going off on the night-stand and she grabbed it seeing a text from Brittany.
B: What's up with you and Rachel?
Quinn sighed and closed her eyes for a moment before opening them and deciding what to say to Brittany.
Q: Nothing really Brit. We are just friends.
Brittany wasn't as stupid as everyone thought she was though. She could read people and she knew that something more serious was going on then what Quinn was letting up.
B: Q; I know it's something more than that. You can tell me.
Santana crossed the room and looked down at her best friend's phone. If she couldn't get it out of Quinn maybe Brittany could.
"Is she answering yet?" The Latina asked.
"No. I don't think she's going to tell us." she paused and pursed her lips. "San I really don't think it's our business."
Santana sighed and took Brittany's phone out of her hand and set it down. Then she pushed the blonde down onto the bed and hovered above her. "Yeah you're right. Let's just get our mac on."
Brittany sighed and scooted away from her friend. "I like the lady kisses Santana, but I'm very confused. Do you love me?"
Santana's eyebrows came together in a tight line and she sighed. "Of course Brittbritt. You know I do."
Brittany cocked her head to the side and leaned back against the headboard of her bed. "If that's true then how come we aren't girlfriends?"
Santana's eyes widened. "I just. I'm not ready for that Brittz."

Quinn ignored the text from Brittany and set her phone down, but then it went off again and she picked it back up hoping to God that it was Rachel. Why was she feeling so fond of this other girl lately? Maybe it was just because she was so lonely. She couldn't talk to her mom about anything because Judy was seeing a man that Quinn wasn't very fond of. She couldn't talk to anyone at school because they would spread rumors about her. Rachel was very kind hearted and no matter what the blonde did to her last year she knew that Rachel would never do anything to hurt her.
She frowned when she saw it wasn't Rachel that texted it was Puck. She sighed in disgust and set her phone down once again. That's when she heard it ringing. Geez Quinn was popular this afternoon wasn't she? Her eyes lit up when she saw it was Rachel who was calling her. Wait, how did Rach get her number? She didn't give it out. Oh well. She swallowed a giant lump in her throat and answered.
"Hey Rachel."
Rachel's face lit up in delight on the other side of the phone conversation. She was really happy to hear Quinn's voice. Since she got home and both her dad's were working she felt very lonely. Maybe she shouldn't of lied to Finn. At least she'd have some company then.
"Hi Quinn. What are you up to?"
Quinn smiled. Rachel wanted to make small talk. That was okay with her she guessed. "Fixing to have to go eat dinner with my mom. Fun times." the blonde answered sarcastically.
"Listen Quinn. As much as I love small talks. I think we should discuss that kiss."
The blonde knew that was coming and as soon as she was about to answer she heard her mom calling. Saved by the mom. She smiled to herself, but then frowned. Rachel was going to be so disappointed when Quinn said she had to go, but Quinn herself was very relieved. She just wasn't ready for that conversation yet.
"I'd love to Rachel, but my mom just called me." Quinn replied.
The brunette rolled her eyes and sighed heavily. "Are you making that up just so you don't have to talk about it?"
"Why would I do that?" Quinn asked a little hurt.
"Because you don't do well with confrontation. I know you more than you think Quinn." Rachel answered. She played with a piece of her hair, twirling it slightly in her fingers.
"Well I swear on my life it's true." Just as she finished talking, her mom called her again. "See told you." She chuckled.
"Fine." Rachel sighed in defeat. "See you tomorrow?"
Quinn smiled. "Yea sure Rach. Bye."
She hung up and bounded down the stairs. "Sorry mom. Rachel talks a lot."
Judy laughed at her daughter as she was setting her plate on the table. "Rachel? Do you mean Rachel Berry? I thought you girls didn't get along."
Quinn nodded. "I was very mean to her, but I regret that now. She's the only one that I can really talk to."
Judy was surprised to hear such news. Her daughter was the captain of the cheerleading team. How did she not have people she could talk to.
"I Don't understand dear. I thought you had many friends." she looked toward her daughter. "Sit down. I made your favorite."
Quinn sat down at the table and took a bite of her food. "I do, but they aren't really friends. See when your popular people are just nice to you because you're popular. They don't really care about you. Rachel is different mom. She cares about me so much and even after I was horrible to her."
Judy smiled. "Of course dear. She just seems like that type of person. I bet she's like that because she has homosexual fathers."
Quinn nearly chocked on her food. "What?"
Judy saw the anger in her daughter's eyes but she continued anyway. "It's just that homo's teach their children equality and to be forgiving and respectful."
The blonde cheerleader set her fork down and glared at her mother. "Can you not call them that please?"
Judy shook her head. "I don't think it's right Quinnie. For homosexual's to have children. Children should be taught the right things and that isn't right. Two men don't go together. It's in the bible."
Quinn was really pissed now. She got up from the table quickly, nearly knocking her plate off the table. "You can't pray away the gay mother!" she nearly shouted.
"Oh Quinn. Sit down and finish your dinner."
"No mom. I will not continue to sit here while you bash on my friend's dads. They are really nice men. Much nicer than you or dad ever are. They actually treat their daughter with respect and don't kick her out just for being pregnant or turn their back on her. I bet if she got pregnant.."
The blonde didn't get to finish before her mother interrupted her. "Don't you dare talk to me in that tone Lucy Quinn!"
"Oh whatever mom. I'm so done with your bullshit!" Quinn stormed off to her room and slammed the door shut, locking it behind her. She hated her parents so much and just couldn't wait to finish high school so she could be away from them for good.
"Open this door young lady right now." Judy yelled through the door. Quinn flung it open and glared at her mother.
"You do not disrespect me under my roof. Do you understand?"
Quinn rolled her eyes. "What are you going to kick me out again?"
"As a matter of fact, I will if you keep it up. I don't need this. Your sister never treated us this way."
Oh great bring up her sister again. She was perfect. She never did any wrong. Quinn was always the fuck up because her sister was respectful and made straight A's and damn it Quinn was tired of always being compared to that. She was a good student too.
"My sister didn't have any fucking balls." Quinn mused.
"Watch your mouth little girl."
"I'm not a fucking little girl anymore mother! I'm almost a grown woman. I have one more year of school and then I'm done with you, dad and my fucking sister! I'm going out. Don't wait up!" Quinn shoved past her mother and ran out of the house as quickly as she could. She got in her car and drove off, not looking back.

Rachel had just finished eating leftovers that her dad's had left her and she was sitting on the couch flipping through the channels. There was nothing on like always. Just as she was about to go to her room and turn on some music she heard someone pounding on the door. "Who would that be?" she asked mostly to herself before padding to the front door in her pajamas. She was wearing her favorite ones and her hair was tied back. It was late. Who would be at her house so late?
Her question was answered when she opened the door and a tear stained Quinn was standing there. "Quinn? What are you doing here? What's the matter?"
Quinn didn't wait for Rachel to invite her in. The blonde just pushed her way inside and shut the door behind her. "My mom is such a fucking bitch."
Rachel was surprised to her Quinn talking that way, but she paid no mind to it. "Sit down. Please?" She grabbed Quinn's bag off of her shoulder and set it down then sat down on the couch and waited for the blonde to sit next to her.
"What happened?" Rachel questioned, genuinely caring.
"I don't want to talk about it. Can you just h-hold me?"
Rachel didn't think twice about it. She put her arms around Quinn and pulled her as close as she could. The blonde rested her head on Rachel's chest and sobbed for a couple of minutes. Rachel just held her and rubbed her back comfortingly. "It's okay Quinn. I'm here." she kept saying over and over until Quinn finally looked up at her with tear stained cheeks. Her hazel eyes were glassed over and she looked like she could really use some sleep.
"Thank you Rachel." Quinn met Rachel's gaze and half smiled. "I don't understand why you are so sweet to me. I don't deserve it."
Rachel frowned. "Yes you do Quinn. You are perfect and you deserve nothing but the best."
Quinn blushed hearing Rachel say those things to her. God, she was perfect. Why did Quinn choose to be so mean to her? How could she possibly forgive her after all that she'd done?
Instead of choosing the next words to say the blonde pulled Rachel closer to her and placed her lips to the other girl's. She moaned in delight when she felt Rachel open her mouth for Quinn's tongue to enter. She slipped her tongue in the other girl's mouth and gently massaged it. It was sweet and sensual at first but soon it became very heated and their tongues fought for dominance. "Mmm Quinn." Rachel moaned softly into Quinn's mouth.
The blonde felt herself starting to get aroused so she pulled away from Rachel before things got too hot. "Rachel."
"Hmm?" Rachel hummed.
"I don't want to go back home. Can I just stay here?"
"Of course you can Quinn. My door is always open." Rachel answered.
I love you Quinn wanted to say, but instead she decided to change the subject. "I thought Finn was coming over?"
Rachel shrugged. "I told him I wasn't feeling good." she paused. "To be honest I'm growing tired of him. I don't think I love him anymore." she said honestly.
Quinn chuckled. "That happens. I got tired of him quickly too. He's a nice boy and everything but I just never felt anything with him." she paused and averted her eyes from Rachel. "To be honest I've never felt anything like I do with you with any boy."
Rachel's eyes widened. She was speechless for the first time in her life.
"It's okay Rach. You don't have to say anything. I should probably go." Quinn went to get up.
"No. Please." Rachel pleaded. "I don't want you to go."
Quinn obliged and sat back down. "Can I be honest Quinn?"
The blonde nodded. "Since this is share time, I suppose you can." she chuckled.
"Okay then." the brunette looked into Quinn's eyes and ran a smooth hand down Quinn's cheek to cup her face. "I've never felt anything like what I feel with you either."
Quinn gaped at Rachel, her mouth hung open. "Really?"
Rachel swallowed the lump in her throat. "Yes."
The girls were interrupted when Quinn's phone vibrated in her pocket. The blonde looked to Rachel as if she was asking her permission. "Answer that."
Quinn obliged and answered the phone. "What Santana?"
"That's rude Q." Santana answered on the other end. "Your mother called and asked if you were here. I covered for you, being the nice person I am. Your with the dwarf right?"
Quinn rolled her eyes. "Could you please not call her that? And yes. I am."
Santana huffed a breath of air. "I figured. Well you're welcome anyway."
Quinn smiled genuinely thankful for her friend. "Thanks S."
Santana shook her head. "Whatever. See you tomorrow."
Quinn hung up her phone and looked over at Rachel who was playing with her hands. "My mom called Santana to see if I was there, so she covered for me."
Rachel smiled. "You want to go watch a movie or something?"
The blonde nodded. "That sounds like a plan. I might fall asleep on you though because I've had just about all I can take today."
Rachel jumped up off the couch and took Quinn's hand pulling her with her. "I have just the perfect film. I think you'll love it."
XXXXXXX
As soon as the credits started rolling and the girls were settled in Rachel's bed, the brunette decided she'd bring up the kiss again. She was very confused and she just wanted answers. Rachel wasn't the type to just leave stuff hanging in the balance. She needed to know exactly what was going on and she hated surprises. Once for her birthday her dads threw her a surprise party and she freaked out, ran to her room and stayed up there the entire party. She wasn't the type of person that just let stuff go either. She had to know, because if what her and Quinn were doing was going to be more than friendship she needed to break the news to Finn. She couldn't cheat on him. It wasn't right.
"Quinn?"
"Hmm?" The blonde hummed.
"I really think we need to talk about what is going on with us."
Quinn sat straight up in the bed and sighed. "I don't think now is the right time Rachel."
"I do." Rachel argued. "If we don't talk about it now, we'll never talk about it. I can't Oh god. The talk. This is what Quinn feared the most and it was fixing to happen. Just fucking great
