That night as Santana laid in bed thinking about the day's events she heard movement from Puck's room. As she peeked into the hallway she was surprised to see Puck standing in the doorway with Quinn, "What are you doing here? You know the rules if Santana found out she'd eat us alive"
Quinn's voice was shaking from crying, "I know and I'm sorry for coming, but I can't stop thinking about her" Puck sighed, "I know I can't either but she's happy and healthy and that's all we've ever wanted right?" Quinn nodded, "I'm so sick of lying to everyone espcially Finn" Puck sighed again a little louder, "Quinn I'm not going over this again, you made your decision a long time ago when you got pregnant by Finn and married him"
Quinn began crying again, "It was a mistake! I thought he was what I wanted, I was scared of my feelings for you, you already know this!" Puck didn't look amused, "And after that? What about when you finally admitted you loved me and we conceived Bayley why didn't you just admit to Finn you loved me and that she was mine? Why'd you sleep with him so you could pass off Bayley as his?"
Santana had to clasp a hand over her mouth to muffle her gasp. "There is too much at stake by that point! My marriage, my kids, your daughter, your business, all our friendships! The damage we could cause would be devastating!" Puck pulled Quinn into his arms, "I know, I'm sorry, I just hate how he can have everything I love and there's nothing I can do about it"
Quinn clung to him as she made him look at her, "You know he doesn't have me right? We haven't had sex since before Bayley. We don't even share a bedroom anymore. My body and heart belong to you I just can't break up my family right now" Puck nodded in understanding, things with Santana were so calm and easy they were great parents to Isabelle and best friends. Being with Quinn would ruin that for sure, "Why don't' you stay, San won't be up for a few more hours you can slip out before she gets up for work" Quinn nodded as Puck led her to his bedroom.
Santana quickly and quietly slipped into her room as mind went over everything she'd just learned. Not only were Puck and Quinn having an affair but it had been going on for so long Bayley may not be Finn's and Quinn and Finn's marriage has been dwindled to a mere co-parent ship. Santana didn't know what to do with this information but she knew one thing was certain Princess Quinn was coming down from her high horse. Santana fell asleep as she dreamed of all the ways she could ruin Quinn's life.
With a plan formed and ready to be executed Santana got her daughter ready to go to Sam and Rachel's house for their weekly Sunday BBQ, "Mommy I hate wearing dresses they make me look like a pansy" Santana rolled her eyes at the new word Belle had picked up from her dad, "I know but you look so pretty in them, just please wear it for me today"
Isabelle gave in and allowed her mother to finish dressing her and curl her hair. Puck smiled at his beautiful daughter from the doorway, "Oh no I better lock you in your room now before all those nasty boys come calling" Isabelle giggled as Santana rolled her eyes, "Please daddy I could kick every one of those boys asses"
Puck laughed as Santana shot him a glare, "Belle, honey, do we need to have another talk about swearing AND fighting?" Isabelle quickly looked away, "No mama I'll be good" Santana smiled and kissed her cheek, "Good now go get your shoes on" Once their daughter was out of earshot Puck spoke, "Why are you so hard on her? She's half you and half me which means she's 100% badass. You fought all the time in school and cussed like a sailor, now you're telling her to stop being who she is?"
Santana rolled her eyes, "Her life is different than ours was, she doesn't need to fight and I don't want her having to go through what I did in school" Puck pulled her into a hug, "Trust me we would never make her go through the hell you did" Santana smiled slightly as she was comforted by her best friend, even if he was a loyal less cheating dog. He was still the best friend she had ever had and he was the father of her daughter, "Come on we're going to be late" Santana quickly thought of her plan and started having second thoughts until she remembered her goal… destroy Quinn Fabray Hudson's life.
As Puck predicted they were the last ones to arrive, Isabelle ran to play with the other kids as Santana joined Rachel in the kitchen and Puck went to join the guys around the grill. A little while later Santana and Rachel brought the side dishes out while the guys set the steaks and veggie burgers on the table and everyone ate. Once dinner was over and everyone was relaxing on the patio, Santana put her plan in motion.
"You know I've just realized how much Bayley doesn't look a whole lot like Quinn unlike Brooke" Quinn fidgeted a little, "That's because she takes after Finn and Brody" Puck's gaze quickly moved to the table but Santana could see his fists clench and his jaw tick, so did Rachel. Santana smirked and continued, "No she really doesn't… she looks a lot like that picture of Beth Rachel showed us the other night"
That caught Finn's attention as well as Sam's, "What are you implying Santana? Are you saying my daughter looks like Puck?" Santana shrugged, "I'm just stating my opinion" The color drained from Quinn's face as Finn took a good look at the baby in her arms and back to Puck before turning to Rachel, "Can I see that picture again?" Rachel nodded silently as she handed her phone over.
Finn looked at Beth's face again as Quinn tried to cover, "Finn this is ridiculous, why are you letting her get to you? Bayley is yours you remember the night she was conceived" Puck continued to simmer as Rachel watched with curiosity. She wasn't going to lie, now that it had been brought to her attention Bayley did have a striking resemblance to Puck and Quinn's daughter.
"I know we hadn't had sex in over a year and suddenly you were all over me while I was drunk then 3 weeks later you're pregnant and back to not wanting anything to do with me, almost like you knew you were going to get pregnant or…" Finn couldn't finish his sentence so Santana did, "Or she was already pregnant and trying to cover her ass"
Everyone's reaction to her theory played in their eyes as realization set in. Finn's eyes clouded in anger as he looked between Quinn's tear filled eyes and Puck's guilty ones. Rachel and Sam's eyes were wide in shock while Santana's were smug with victory, "Stay the hell out of it Santana! No one wants your opinion!" Quinn shouted. Rachel could see they had gained the kids attention.
"Why don't I take the kids in for a movie and put Bayley down for a nap" Everyone agreed and Rachel wrangled the children inside. Finn broke the silence, "So is it true? Did you cheat on me with Puck and pass his kid off as mine AGAIN?!" Quinn was full blown sobbing now and knew there was no use lying anymore, "Yes" Her answer was simple and quiet just like it had been 11 years ago, but it rocked everyone's world. Finn let out a breath before he shoved himself away from the table sending his chair flying backwards, "I can't believe you!"
"I'm so sorry but I can't help it, I love him" Finn shook his head, "It all makes sense now the looks, the anger when you found out Santana was pregnant, how could you do this to our family?" Quinn continued crying, "I did this for our family… I couldn't break Brooke and Brody's family apart. I couldn't break your heart again"
Finn snorted, "Is this supposed to make me feel better? That you'd rather cheat on me than divorce me?" Soon Quinn's anger appeared, "Don't try to act like you're oh-so-innocent it's not like you really love me. If we hadn't had Brooke we wouldn't be married we wouldn't have even made it out of high school. Hell if you had your way you'd be married to Rachel!"
Just then Rachel appeared in the doorway, "You have no idea what you're talking about you're just trying to take the blame off yourself" Quinn snorted, "Maybe if you looked at me the way you looked at her or said my name instead of hers while we had sex I wouldn't have turned to Puck"
Everyone gasped, including Santana as Finn and Rachel turned bright red, "So I may have still had feelings for Rachel but I never acted on them or cheated on you" Quinn laughed, "Because she never gave you the opportunity, if she had so much as winked at you I would have been forgotten in a heartbeat. So no you never physically cheated on me but you did emotionally and mentally" Finn couldn't believe his ears, "Those are nothing compared to what you've done to me twice! I'm done with you, I want you out of my house and I want a divorce"
With that said Finn stormed out, "Finn wait!" Rachel called as she ran after him. Quinn fell to the ground in sobs as Puck went to hold her, "No! Don't touch me! You've caused enough damage" Puck pulled back as if burned and left while Sam decided to go check on the kids. Santana smiled as she watched Quinn's life crumble. Quinn looked up from her tears, "Why did you have to say anything? What did I ever do to you?" Santana snorted, "What did you do to me? Like you don't know!"
