Chapter 6:Puck's House
Quinn didn't know how long she had been walking or where she was. Not like it matters anyway, she has nowhere to go. She doesn't know what to do. And with Rachel not wanting to talk or even be near her, she had nothing to do. She was alone, she had nowhere to go, and she was dead.
"Oh yea, best day ever." Quinn said sarcastically to herself.
After hours of more walking, Quinn looked around and realized she was on the street where she and her friends lived. She wondered what her friends and family were doing right now. They should be home from the hospital by now.
Since she had nowhere else to be, she decided that she would check up on them. See how they're handling things. And they all lived on the same block, so that made it even easier for Quinn.
The first house that Quinn stopped by was Puck's. She knew Finn would be with him, all of them would always hang out and play videogames around this time. She wonders if that's what they're doing now.
Quinn walked up to the house and saw Puck's bedroom light was on. She walked up to the door of his house then stopped. She thought about ringing the door, cause how else would she get in, but then she thought that even if either Puck or his mom heard the door, it doesn't mean that they could see her. She's still confused as to why Rachel could see her, but no one else could.
"How the hell am I supposed to get in there?" Quinn asked herself.
Quinn thought and thought and thought until something came to mind.
"No way…There's no way that could work. Well it does work in the movies, but of course those are only movies." Quinn said, arguing with herself. "Well it's worth a try." she said final.
Quinn stood in front the door, then stretched her hand out, and walked towards the door. When she got close enough, she reached her hand out further to touch the door. She concentrated really and when she tried to touch the door, her hand went right though it.
"Whoa…no way!"
After putting her whole arm though the door, Quinn tried her other arm. She positioned it just like she did last time, and it went though again.
"This is so cool!" Quinn said amused. "I guess being dead has it's perks."
After her other arm went though the door, Quinn decided to try with her head, so she stuck her head though the door, and the rest of her body followed until she was at the other side of the house.
"Wow. That was way to cool."
After getting in the house Quinn headed up the stairs to Puck's bedroom, where she was sure Puck and Finn were.
As she got closer to Puck's room, she thought she heard laughing. When she got closer, she knew she heard laughing. "What the hell are they laughing at?"
When she got the his room, she saw that they were looking at a scrapbook that she and Puck made when they were middle school.
"Hey dude, you remember that one time in 8th grade, when you, me, and Quinn started that water balloon fight in the cafeteria?" Puck laughed
"Yea, that was so cool. And then it turned in to a food fight." Finn laughed along with him.
"Yea and then the teachers never could find who started it, so they stopped looking. That was one of the coolest days ever,"
"Yea, they always were with Quinn." Finn said sadly.
"Yea they were. She was always the mischievous one out of all of us." Puck said
"Yea, she always came up with coolest ideas."
"Noah, Santana's here!" Mrs. Puckerman yelled.
"Send her up!" Puck yelled back.
Seconds later Santana came up to Puck's room with her Cheerio's sweat pants on, and a gray shirt that looked to be either damp from the rain or tears.
"Yo Lopez, what brings you here?" Puck asked "I thought you'd be with Brittany right now."
"Yea, I was, but after crying for an hour, she said she wanted to be alone. I didn't wanna leave, but she said it was okay, so I came straight here. I just couldn't be home alone right now." Santana said sitting in the chair next to Finn.
"Yea I know what you mean. News has already gotten around about Quinn. I know once I go home Burt, my mom, or even Kurt are gonna be hassling me about how I feel, and wanting me to talk about things." Finn sighed.
"Yea my mom was trying to do the same shit when I walked in the house." Puck said
"And it's kind hard for me to look at my dad right now. I mean I know it's not his fault, but he saw Quinn die. I just don't know how I feel about that. I mean she was my best friend. I know we never acted like it, but she was." Santana said. A little tear escaped her eye.
There was a sad silence between the three friends.
"So…" Santana said breaking the silence. "What you two nutheads talking about before I got here?" she asked looking from Puck to Finn.
"Nothing much, just reliving' some of the glory days with Quinn's magic mischief." Puck answered with a smile.
"That's cool." Santana nodded her head.
"Hey you guys remember freshmen year, second week of school, when we booby trapped the teachers' lounge with the frogs from the biology lab." Finn said smiling at the memory.
"Yea, that was so funny. And Ms. Pillsbury almost went into a OCD coma." Puck laughed.
"Yea, but then news went around that somebody saw you and Finn by the room at the time before, so you were sent to the office. What happened with that? I could've sworn you guys got suspended for like a month." Santana asked
With that Puck and Finn's smile faltered. Santana looked confused
"What? What happened?"
Puck couldn't seem to find his voice, so Fin answered for him. "Um…when Quinn heard what happened, she ran out of her class and ran to the office before Figgins could call our parents and told that it was her who did it and we were nowhere near when she did it."
"She took the blame for you." Santana said rather than asked.
Finn nodded sadly.
"I told her not to. I told that it was necessary for her to take the blame, but she didn't listen. She told me that she wouldn't let us get in trouble for her stupid prank. Figgins almost gave her 2 months suspension, but we told kept trying to say that it saw us not her. He was so confused, he just gave us all a week suspension and 2 months detention." Puck joined in, tears forming in his eyes now.
"Wow" Santana said not knowing what else to say. Santana didn't know all of that about Quinn. Sure they had been friends, but they haven't been that close as of lately.
Quinn and Santana always had a weird friendship. One moment they looked like they were the best of friends, then the next they're at each others throats. They would always compete with each other. Since the 8th grade actually. When they first met. Freshmen year they had compete to be the first freshmen head Cheerio on the cheerleading squad. They competitiveness lasted until the middle of sophomore year when Quinn quit the cheerio's and joined the soccer team. She liked soccer a little better than cheerleading. Since then they become a little close, until Quinn started dating Brittany.
Santana had always had a crush on Brittany, but never did anything about it. It hurt when she saw her so-called best friend dating her crush. After that Quinn and Santana were back at each others throat. But after seeing how Quinn was with Brittany, and how happy Quinn made her, Santana decided to step off and let them be. Later on she found out that she and Brittany were better friends anyway.
"Man, this sucks." Puck said. The other nodded their agreement.
Quinn stayed awhile longer listening to her friends go down memory line. It felt good to hear some of these stories. It also felt good to see that she actually had friends who cared about her, and would've been there for her if they could.
A few more minutes later Quinn headed out and to the next house.
