Okay, so once again I'm very sorry for the last chapter, and the incredibly long wait, but I promise you it's worth it! I also promise that this one will be far more eventful than the last, and much longer as well, so I hope you all enjoy it!:D
I still don't own Glee, Gilmore Girls, or anything that Lorelai happens to reference! (I.e; Tom Cruise, Monty Python, etc…)
Chapter 4
The next day, Quinn woke up feeling more rested than ever before. She also found that she couldn't see anything when she opened her eyes. "That's odd" she thought to herself while she felt around on her forehead and finally found a sticky note stuck to it that said:
Be in the lobby by nine sharp, you must see Star's Hollow! I know it's early, but I promise there will be food and lots of it, in your future! And there will also be a wafer-thin mint to follow the excessive feasting!—Lorelai.
"What does a wafer-thin mint have anything to do with eating?" Quinn thought to herself. She was slightly confused by her letter, but was happy nonetheless, because she felt that for the first time in her life, someone actually understood what she was going through and didn't point and glare at her once she saw her and her ever-growing stomach. She was still however, slightly confused about Lorelai's past and really wanted to ask her about it, but she didn't want to make it sound like she was prying, so she decided she would wait for the right moment.
Once she was finally able to pry herself from the extremely comfortable bed, she decided it was time for a shower, since she hadn't had one since she got here, so it felt very good when the water was beating down on her. It felt very relaxing, and she could tell the baby liked it too, because she was finally not kicking her excessively like she had been for what seemed like that last week. Once she got out of the shower, she quickly got dressed, did her makeup, and was downstairs right at 9:00, and Lorelai was waiting for her.
"Quinn! Good, you got my note!" Lorelai exclaimed, quickly hugging the blonde. At this, Quinn just shot Lorelai a look that said: "No shit Sherlock!", and they both laughed at this.
"So, are you ready for your first official tour of the wonderful town that is Star's Hollow?" Lorelai asked, leading Quinn outside by the arm. "I can't wait", Quinn said back with a slight smile on her face. "Good! Because as your tour guide, I must show you everything that Star's Hollow has to offer, including and not limited to, Al's Pancake World, Taylor's Candy Store, Miss Patty's Dance Studio, the many places that our town crazy, Kirk works at, and of course, Luke's Diner, the place where anything and everything exciting takes place!" she grinned, while doing one of her infamous babbles. "Oh, and I also must talk like 'tour guide Barbie'!" Lorelai continued, and Quinn laughed. She really enjoyed this woman's wit, because she never got wit like this, being from where she was from—except for Kurt of course, but she barely talked to him, which was actually a shame, now that she came to think of it. Wow, Kurt and Lorelai would get along very well.
They were now sitting in Lorelai's Jeep. (A/N: She got it fixed right? And she did keep it? Sorry, I don't really remember! Lol) "Come on, start!" She was now talking to the Jeep, trying to get it to start, and it clearly wasn't co-operating. "Finally!" She cheered when it did finally start after what seemed like forever. "I'm sorry ladies and gentlemen about that minor technical difficulty, but we will be on our way shortly!" Lorelai was determined to stay in character, like she always was, and Quinn just grinned at this. God, this woman should start her own one-woman show on Broadway, she'd make millions of dollars.
The jeep came to a sudden stop, and Quinn braced herself. "And it looks like we're at our first stop! This is the infamous Luke's Diner where much drama has happened over the years!" Lorelai stated. "Seriously, we're like our own soap opera!" Lorelai continued as she walked into the diner and spotted Luke. "And directly in front of you, you will see the owner of this fine establishment, Luke Danes, a.k.a. Grumpy M.c Grumperston!"
"Oh, that's a nice way to greet your husband!" Luke joked, while Lorelai walked behind the counter to pour herself a cup of coffee, and lightly kiss Luke on the lips. "Who are you talking to anyways?" He asked, looking around, and with that Lorelai walked over to Quinn and grabbed her hand. "This is Quinn. She came to the inn yesterday and needed a place to stay, and I was more than happy to help". Lorelai stated, and Quinn reached out her hand for Luke to shake, which he did. "Nice to meet you, Quinn", he said politely, while giving Lorelai a sympathetic look, which also said "we'll talk about this later".
After that, the two girls took a seat at a table, while Quinn frantically flipped through the menu.
"Woah, woah, hold it there hon!" Lorelai said, while reaching a hand out to stop her frantic flipping. "Do you really want to end up like the fat guy in Monty Python?" Lorelai joked, and Quinn just stared at her like she was crazy. "What! You really don't know what that means! Wow, well then we must have a serious Movie marathon and stat, you need to catch up!" She joked, but Quinn just went back to flipping through her menu. All of a sudden, she heard a small noise coming from her purse. "You wanna get that?" Lorelai asked. "No, no it's fine," and Quinn just lowered her head and started playing with her hands.
"Have you talked to anyone since you left?" Lorelai asked, trying not to look like she was prying. Quinn then lifted her head. "I haven't. I just don't know what I'd say to them you know? Hey guys, listen I might never be coming back, so you may never see me again, so have a good life!" She said sarcastically, and Lorelai, being the expert on this subject that she is, just had to give her two cents. "Well, I think it would be good for them to know where you are, you know? They would probably at least like to know that you're safe. Are you worried he'll find out where you are?" She asked, clearly prying now, but she didn't care. "Who's he?" Quinn asked, her blonde roots clearly coming out at this moment. "Tom Cruise! You know who I'm talking about, what's his name?" Quinn put her head down; she did kind of feel bad just leaving Puck and not giving him a second chance, but she still wasn't ready to talk to him just yet. "Puck", she answered simply. "Puck! What kind of a name is Puck! What was he born on an ice rink or something?" Lorelai asked with a disgusted face. "It's his nickname. His actual name is Noah Puckerman", she answered, laughing at Lorelai. Her face then returned to her sombre look. "I'm sort of worried about that, but I doubt he'd come all the way to Connecticut to find me anyways. See, he told me he loved me, but then he went and made out with this bitch who's supposed to be my friend". Quinn didn't even realize she said 'bitch'; it was so weird for her to use swear words, because she never really had, but oh well, Santana deserves it. All Lorelai said to this was: "Well guys are like that, especially at that age; they don't know what they want, so they get desperate to find out, but eventually they come around and hopefully they learn to do the right thing". Lorelai finished her statement, and at this Quinn just had to ask. "You said you understood where I was coming from, and that you've been a pregnant teenager, right?" She asked cautiously, receiving a nod from Lorelai. "Well what happened with your guy, did it all work out eventually?" She asked and could tell Lorelai needed a minute to think. "It did. He tried to be there for my daughter as much as he could, and it worked for the most part. We were also off and on for a while, but our relationship wasn't meant to be, so you should find out if yours is", she stated. In a way it was weird for the both of them to be having such a deep conversation after they just met each other, but it was definitely needed, because Quinn had to hear the truth eventually and all she needed right now was someone to be there for her, and right now, that person was Lorelai.
After their excessive eating and Luke's numerous warnings to Quinn about not letting Lorelai get her hooked on coffee or adopt her crazy eating habits, (which she already had anyways), they left and continued their tour. "Hey hon, is it okay if we stop at the store for a sec? I need to buy stupid vegetables for Luke: curse him and his healthy eating habits", Quinn just smiled and nodded while they both headed into the store. "Seriously, I love the man, but he desperately needs to adopt some of my eating habits, that way he wouldn't be constantly nagging me on how much coffee I drink or how high my cholesterol level will be if I have a third Danish". "You guys seem really happy though—you seem in love", Quinn stated, smiling, and Lorelai smiled back. "We are hon, he's been there for me through everything, and has helped my daughter a lot too. Se that's what you need: you need a Luke, everyone does", she said continuing to smile, and Quinn just smiled with her, while making a mental note about trying to find a Luke.
They were now in the store when Lorelai suddenly saw marshmallow bananas and squealed, while running in the direction of them. Wow, she really can be a kid sometimes! Quinn thought to herself, even though she really enjoyed the woman's care-free spirit, because it sort of unleashed that in herself. Of course being pregnant, Quinn also got distracted by food, and started looking for some chips for later on, but she wasn't looking where she was going and her baby bump hit someone, which caused them both to jump back, and also caused the other person to drop the groceries he was carrying.
"I'm so sorry!" Quinn said, attempting to help him pick the stuff up, but she could only get so far. "Don't worry, I got it, thanks though, for trying", he smiled looking up at her now. The second she saw him, she was mesmerized by his bright blue eyes and wide smile. His light brown hair looked somewhat like Finn's—it was short and messy, but in the good way, just like Finn's hair. He was much shorter than Finn though, about her height, (god why am I comparing him to Finn!) She mentally cursed herself. She then figured out that she was staring at this guy for way too long, because he was starting to shift uncomfortably and coughed slightly, so she was finally brought out of her daze.
"Oh-uh ya, no problem, sorry about that, I need chips" She said abruptly, flushing a bright red. "God what the hell is wrong with me! I sound like an idiot! If it wasn't for the damn pregnancy hormones, I probably wouldn't even care about this guy, now I'm getting all worked up over him, like he's a piece of meat! Oh my god, I'm becoming the female version of Puck!" She made a disgusted face at her thoughts, which just made the guy even more confused.
"Uh okay then, her ya go", he said, handing her a bag of chips off the shelf. "A-are you okay?" He asked, looking genuinely worried about her.
"Oh ya, I'm-uh-fine, everything's good, it's great. I'm just gonna go now, someone's waiting for me, but thanks!" She said as she rushed off, desperate to get away from him before she embarrassed herself further, leaving a very confused boy in her midst, just staring at her and watching walk away. Little did she know that she actually walked out of the store with the bag of chips still in her hand. It wasn't until Lorelai followed her out of the store and asked her why she just shoplifted, that she finally realized what she just did.
"W-what!" She exclaimed, looking down at the bag in her hand with a shocked face. "Oh my god, shit!" She practically yelled, surprised at the words that came out her mouth, and her previous actions. Oh my god, what is happening to me! I'm acting like a freak, I think I need serious help, like a psychiatrist or something! She thought.
"What happened! I saw you talking to that cute guy, and the next thing I know, you're walking out of the store with a bag of chips in your hand, Winona Ryder much!" She exclaimed, but completely understanding why she did it—after all it happened to Rory before too.
"Oh god, I know I was acting like a complete idiot in front of him, I just had to get out of there", Quinn said, still very embarrassed of her actions. "Hon, don't worry about it, after all, he was very cute, hell if I was your age, I'd definitely shoplift as well!" She smiled, making Quinn laugh lightly, and it also made her relax a bit. "Don't worry about it though, this isn't the first time something like this has happened. Hell, it happened to my daughter several years ago, so just be glad you stole a bag of chips and not something weird like flour, like she did, because it's much easier to return, without getting a questioning look from Taylor", she stated, taking Quinn's arm and bringing her back into the store to pay for her chips.
"I can't go back in there!" Quinn exclaimed and tried desperately to get out of Lorelai's grasp, but was completely unsuccessful, as the older woman pretty much dragged her back into the store. Quinn went up to the cash register, (no line up, thank god!) and quickly paid for the chips, while looking around the store for him, and silently thanked god that she couldn't find him—that is until she was almost out of the store of course.
"Hey!" He said, lightly tapping her on the shoulder, and she turned around sharply, but had a very shocked look on her face when she saw who it was. Crap crap crap! Was all she could think.
"Hey", was all she could say. "Forget something?" He asked, winking at her, and at that moment she realized that he had seen her walk out with the bag, and blushed furiously.
"Oh, ya, I um—" She tried to think of something quick, but was cut off by Lorelai. "I forgot toilet paper, so we had to come back in", Lorelai stated simply, and the boy just nodded, knowing the real truth. "Well I gotta get home, but it was nice to meet you—" "Q-Quinn" She finished, shaking his outstretched hand. "Matt. Well, I guess I'll be seeing you around!" He smiled and winked at her again, and Quinn blushed yet again. "Okay let's get outta here, now!" Quinn stated, pulling the older woman with her.
The rest of the day was less uneventful, (which was fine with Quinn, because she's not sure how much more embarrassment she could take in a day), but it was still a great one. She got to see the rest of the town, while spending an unhealthy amount of time in both the cosmetic store and Weston's Bakery, but all in all she was really beginning to love this town. It just looked like it was right out of a postcard, what with the perfectly placed gazebo in the centre of town, which would light up at night with beautiful white Christmas lights, and all the old-looking buildings that surrounded it—it looked practically heavenly, and Quinn smiled at this. She never felt like this in Lima, even though the people who lived there made her smile, (well, for the most part). But this, this place was different; it wasn't some shitty one-cow town—it was beautiful and she would be happy to spend the rest of her life there, but she still did miss her old friends, seeing as she barely knew anyone here.
After a full day of shopping and touring the entire town, both girls were very tired. So, they decided to head back to Luke's Diner for some end-of-the-day pie and coffee, (well tea for Quinn). However Luke was nowhere in sight, so Lorelai took it upon herself to grab two pieces of pie from behind the counter.
"Marco!" She yelled. "I'm up here!" He yelled back, coming down the stairs. "You're supposed to say Polo, get with it burger boy!" She said, gently slapping him on the arm. "And you're supposed to wait for me to serve you pie, Jave Junkie!" he said back to her, a smirk playing at his lips. "Okay fine, you win this one, but just be warned, I'm out to get you!" She smiled back at him, digging into her pie and coffee.
"So how was your day?" He asked the two. "Very interesting. You see, Quinn here met someone! Oh and she also stole, but that's besides the point" She stated and Quinn gasped and reached over the table to hit Lorelai. "What! It's true!" She said, defending herself. "Why did she steal!" Luke asked, slightly shocked, because to him, Quinn looked too good to do something like that. "Because of the boy she met" Lorelai said matter-of-factly, earning an evil glare from Quinn. "Oh, so she pulled a Rory, I see", Luke said completely understanding. "Who's Rory?" Quinn asked. "Did I just hear my name?" A voice came from the door of the diner, and all three of them turned around to stare at the person who came through the door.
"Oh. My. God!" Is all Lorelai could say before she ran up to the other girl and practically jumped onto her, hugging her very tightly. "What are you doing back!" She practically screamed, as Luke joined the two and hugged her as well. "Nice to see you, kiddo" he said to her, which she said back. "Well my boss let me have my vacation early, because everyone at the paper are like wild animals trying to get there vacations in, so he thought it would be easier to let me have mine earlier, so people wouldn't get mad". After the Obama campaign ended, Rory was given her dream job—the New York Times, and she couldn't be happier. "Well we're so glad to have you back!" Lorelai said, hugging her daughter once again.
"Oh, there's someone I would like you to meet!" Lorelai said, while leading Rory to the table that Quinn was sitting at. "Rory, this is Quinn, and Quinn this is my daughter Rory." The two shook hands, but both of them had weird looks on their faces. I think I know this girl, but from where? They both thought, but were soon brought out of their thoughts by the two others joining them at the table.
They continued talking for a while, with Quinn really getting to know Rory, and also getting to like her a lot. However Lorelai, Rory and Luke all decided it was about time to head home about an hour later, so Rory said goodbye to the other three and headed to her mom's house, while Lorelai drove Quinn back to the inn and Luke stayed a bit longer to finish closing up the diner. "Thanks so much for today, I had a lot of fun!" Quinn said, while opening the jeep door. "Me too hon! Even your whole Winona act was fun!" Lorelai joked, and Quinn sent her an evil glare, while they both laughed. "Goodnight, I'll see you bright and early tomorrow. Don't forget, you start work tomorrow, as long as you feel up to it". The older woman stated this and Quinn just nodded. "I think I'll be fine, I can't wait to start!" She said while waving goodbye to her new friend, and closing the door behind her.
Back at the Gilmore-Danes household…
"Okay so we are soooo staying up late tonight and having a marathon of the Godfather movies! I don't care if I have to wake up extremely tomorrow, I must see Sophia die!" She said to Rory while she was grabbing a water and some chips and grabbing the DVD. "Sounds good mom!" Is all Rory said back.
As Luke came in the door, Lorelai quickly excused herself, asking if Rory wanted something to drink, so she could talk to Luke in the kitchen. They no longer lived in the 'Crapshack', so their kitchen was much bigger, as was the rest of their house. You see, after Lorelai told her parents, (begrudgingly), that her and Luke were back together, Emily basically insisted that they buy the house that she was going to buy Lorelai before the huge break-up. In fact, Emily pretty much kicked out the current owners, just so her only daughter and her boyfriend at the time, could have the house, (not to mention, she paid them a lot of money to get out as well). So, because of this, they now had four bedrooms: one for Rory whenever she came home, one for April who would stay with them when she was visiting, their room, and a guest room for whoever else. Lorelai also had an extra room to make into her own sewing room, which she spent most of her time in if she wasn't at work. They also had a huge property, and, like her mom said before, they had stables, so of course, knowing Lorelai, they had two horses. Yes, you could pretty much say that Lorelai was loving her mother at the moment, (even though she really didn't like to admit it half the time).
Once she followed Luke into the kitchen, who was getting himself a beer, they started talking about the day's events. "Hey, so did Quinn get home safe?" He asked, while she sat at the table. "Yup, she's all good", is all Lorelai said, then there was a slight pause in the conversation, until Luke finally spoke.
"So uh, how did you find her exactly?" Luke asked. "In pretty much the same way that Mia found me, so as soon as Quinn came to the inn, there was no way I could turn her away. I kept on thinking about what would have happened to me if Mia didn't take me in, and I couldn't let that happen to Quinn, because she seems like a very smart girl who just made a mistake, and I can definitely relate to that", she said, while deep in thought. After a while Luke finally spoke. "Well I think you made the right decision, you know giving this girl a chance, Mia would be proud", Luke said smiling, and pulled his wife into a hug and kissed her on the forehead. "I think I did too, she really is a great kid, I think she'll make a great mother", Lorelai said smiling up at Luke, but then her smile quickly faded as she remembered how much trouble they've been having with trying to have a kid, and she quickly dropped her head, tears slowly coming to her eyes. "Hey", Luke said, lifting Lorelai's face up. "Is something wrong?" He continued and Lorelai just shook her head, while trying to fight back tears and hiding her true feelings from her husband, but Luke was too smart for that, he knew that she was hiding something. "Lorelai, it's going to happen for us, don't worry. Even though we've been having trouble lately, doesn't mean that it's not going to happen, because I'm going to make it happen. I love you and I'd do anything to make you happy, so we will have a kid". He looked into her eyes as he said this, and Lorelai had no words at that moment, so she just pulled him into a tight embrace, and let her tears fall, as he kissed her head, and just let her cry. After a while, she let go, making sure that she wiped her eyes well before she went back into the living room so that Rory wouldn't ask questions. Before she did though, Luke added: "You know I mean that right? We're going to have a kid, no matter what". All Lorelai could do at this was smile, because deep in her heart she knew this was true: Luke would stop at nothing to make Lorelai happy.
Back at the inn….
Once Quinn was already for bed, she slumped into her bed, as she was drained of all her energy from today's events. Looking back on the day though, it was a lot of fun, even though she might have shoplifted because she saw a hot guy, (again, it's those stupid pregnancy hormones driving her crazy!) But for the first time in her life, she actually had a lot of fun, and not at the expense of other people, (because yes those pee balloons were fun to throw at people, but deep inside her, she knew none of them deserved that, especially those in glee). And then, just like that, her thoughts went straight back to the glee club, and how much she actually missed them. As she thought back on today's events, the conversation she had with Lorelai while they were eating breakfast that morning struck her: "Have you talked to anyone from back home lately?" And all Quinn said was that she felt she wasn't ready to talk to any of them, when in truth, that's all she really wanted to do, because she knew that they were worried about her. So, grabbing her phone from her purse, she turned it on and after a few minutes, she found that she had 60 new notifications. About half of them were from Puck, but she refused to read or listen to any of those, at least not yet. Instead, she looked at the other half: about ten were from Mr. Schue who must have gotten her cell number from someone in glee, while the other ten were from various members of glee, and she couldn't talk to any of them, because she knew full well that Mr. Schue would try to make her come back if she called him, and the other glee members seemed to ignore her ever since Babygate, so she wasn't going to call any of them either. But then she looked at the other ten notifications, which were all from Mercedes. Ever since Quinn helped her when she fainted in the cafeteria, the two of them have become pretty close friends: they'd always eat lunch together, practice for glee, and just hang out whenever they got the chance. The thing she liked most about Mercedes, was that she wasn't afraid to speak her mind and tell everyone what needed to be said when others were afraid to say something, but she also knew that Mercedes wouldn't pressure her into coming back, just tell her that it might be a wise idea. So, with that in mind, she finally came to a decision to call Mercedes, so while taking a deep breath, she dialled the number and waited for an answer. Three rings later she got it.
"OH MY GOD QUINN!" Mercedes practically screamed in Quinn's ear, startling her and causing her to pull the phone as far away from her ear as she can, but before Quinn can say anything back, Mercedes is hounding her with questions. "Where are you? Are you okay? You better come back here asap!" Mercedes kept yelling random questions at her and hollow threats until Quinn finally spoke up.
"Mercedes calm down! And to answer your questions I'm fine, I'm in a small town in Connecticut, and I can't come back, not yet at least". Quinn let out a heavy sigh, and was waiting for more yelling from Mercede's end, since she said that she couldn't come back yet.
"I get that you can't come back yet, I really do. Listen, Puck told us that you left, and I know why you did it, and I completely understand. Puck was a total jerk to you, and you don't deserve that kind of treatment, but we've all been pretty terrible to you, me included, so I can understand why you would want to leave". Mercedes finished her speech, and waited for an answer from Quinn. "Mercedes, you've never been terrible to me, even when I was terrible to you. You might not always think the best of everyone, but you treat everyone nicely, even if they don't deserve it. But how did you know why I left? Did Puck tell everyone, that is so like him!" She said, with a slightly disgusted look on her face, then she realized Mercedes can't see her face. "No he didn't tell everyone, because he's smart enough to realize that that's not everyone's business. Quinn, I have a confession to make. I really have been terrible to you, I'm not lying, and if you don't want to talk to me ever again, I completely understand". Mercedes was terrified about what Quinn would say about her confession, but they were friends, and friends don't lie to each other. (It was slightly ironic though, and that definitely slipped Mercede's mind, because this was Quinn she was talking to after all). "Mercedes what's wrong? I'm sure it can't be that terrible. You know you're my friend no matter what right?"
Quinn was slightly worried about what she was about to say, but let her continue as she heard Mercede's breathing getting heavier, and she could almost hear the tears. "When I said Puck is a jerk, I wasn't lying, but within the past couple days, he's been changing. His Mohawk is gone, (cue the shocked gasp from Quinn's end), he stopped throwing kids in dumpsters, he's talking to Finn now, and he—well he starteddatingmesothathecouldbecomemorepopularafterhegotridofthehawk", Mercedes said this part extremely fast and Quinn barely caught onto it all, but once again, before Quinn could get a word in edgewise, Mercedes cut her off.
"Yes, I know that was a jerk-move on both our parts, because I fell for him too, knowing full well that he was using me. But you've gotta understand that no guy's ever liked me, so I was so happy when I found out one of the hottest guys in school wanted to date me. And even though we just broke up, we're still talking, and I can see that he's changing and that he hates the guy he is. Okay, I'm done now, so you can talk". Quinn then started giggling and Mercedes was very confused at this—was this a good thing, or was she just laughing because she just found out she was stupid enough to trust her? Soon enough though, Mercedes worries were put to rest, once Quinn finally spoke. "Mercedes, I really don't know why you worry so much. I'm fine with the fact that you two dated, it was my fault after all for letting him get me pregnant, and plus, I'm not even sure if I ever had feelings for him—in fact I'm not sure of much these days", she said, sighing heavily. "I'm glad he's changing though, because maybe he'll realize that he did screw up. I'm one of the few people who knows how kind he can be when he wants to, and I think I fell for that side of him, so maybe if he can change, I'll reconsider, but for now, I just want to figure things out for myself". She finished her speech and felt so relieved to have someone to talk to, who would listen and not try to change her mind for her. "Well I really can't believe you'd be fine with what I told you, I was terrible to you!" Mercedes really still couldn't believe it. "'Cedes, don't worry at all, you weren't terrible to me, so stop thinking that. But I want to thank you for everything you've done for me and for Puck, really, I think out of everyone from glee—Mr. Schue included—I think I miss you the most". Quinn now had tears in her eyes, and by the sounds of it, so did Mercedes once again. "I miss you too. You really helped me with my weight issues before, so I'm glad I could return the favour. But you better come back soon, missy, we all miss you, no one ever hated you from glee club, just know that", Mercedes said through tears that were now threatening to come. "Well I can't promise you that I'll be back very soon, but you'll see me again, that I can promise", she said, smiling. "I do really like it here though. I've already made a friend and met some other people, and I got a job!" She said, changing the mood completely. "Oh ya, and I may have met someone while accidentally shoplifting!" "WHAT!" Was all Mercedes could say to this.
Quinn and Mercedes talked on the phone for a good hour and a half about everything, until she finally hung up and went to sleep. Even though life was hard right now, Quinn knew that she could get through it as long as she had her friends.
