As they pulled away Rachel could see the smile on Quinn's face and she felt elated.
"I love you Quinn Fabray."
"I love you too Rachel Berry." Quinn kissed Rachel's nose. Rachel reached down and grabbed Quinn's hand.
"Come on. Let's go back to you're room and let everyone in and tell them the good news about Beth. Everyone's here except Finn who stayed to see where we placed."
"Now? But…" Quinn trailed off looking at their hands.
"It's Glee Quinn, sure they'll be surprised but they won't judge." Quinn nodded
"What are we Rachel?" She asked
"Well I was kind of hoping you'd be my girlfriend."
"I would love that." Quinn kissed Rachel's nose again.
Seeing Puck, Santana attacked.
"God is the effing baby born yet so we can go home already?"
"Chill Satan. Yeah Beth's here. Quinn should be back in her room you can go see her." He answered rolling his eyes.
Quinn had called a nurse to have Beth returned to the room so Rachel could hold her. She was still cradling the baby when the glee club walked in.
"Oh my gosh! She's a mini Quinn!" Kurt squealed. Quinn smiled
"You might be able to fight Rachel to let you hold her." Rachel smiled and stood up.
"Okay everyone. You get five minutes with Beth. Then you're done. When it's your turn you sit in the chair. Got it?" Quinn smiled at Rachel's assertiveness. Kurt sat down and smiled as Beth was lowered in to his arms. Rachel went back to Quinn and grabbed her hand as Quinn was lying on the bed. Mercedes was the first to notice.
"Um…what the hell?" Both girls giggled
"Quinn's my girlfriend now." Rachel bragged making Quinn laugh some more.
"See Santana, girls can date girls!" Brittany exclaimed prodding Santana, now red, not so subtly
"That's right Britt. And now Quinn and I are dating." Rachel explained
"So pretty much Quinn used to hate Rachel, Quinn had a baby, Rachel's preggers and now they're dating… anyone else confused?" Artie contributed
"Me!" Brittany squealed. Santana stroked her arm.
"Wait what happened to Jesse St. Stupid?" Mercedes asked
"Jesse apparently had dreams. But that's all right. I do too. They all involve Quinn." Quinn smiled
"Aww, this is so sweet. Excuse me while I puke." Santana added
"Santana…" Mr. Schue warned. Kurt handed baby Beth to Tina who kissed her head.
"Poor Beth. She's going to be so scarred." She said as she cradled the baby
"I'm not paying for therapy." Puck said
"You might have to. I mean with this club…" Mike muttered softly. Rachel's phone buzzed in her purse, which she realized had been propped against a chair. The ringtone was Funny Girl, her dad.
"Hi dad!"
"Rachel! Where are you? You're missing the awards… Just Finn is here?"
"Quinn had her baby!"
"That's great sweetie Tell her congrats for us."
"Will do! You can come pick me up at the hospital."
"Rachel? Who ate my baby girl?"
"Um… no one?"
"You haven't even asked me how you placed!"
"Oh my god! How'd we do?"
"First place!" Rachel shrieked. Beth looked up at started to cry.
"What happened, Rachel?" Mr. Schue asked
"First place!" The rest of the glee club hugged and screamed as crying Beth was transferred back to Quinn.
"Hush. Crying baby here." Quinn silenced them
"Sorry Quinn." Rachel rubbed her hand lovingly.
"Quinn and Puck, congratulations, she's beautiful, everyone else come with me, we have to get back to school and let you go home before your parents worry." Mr. Schue announced herding the glee club asides from Quinn, Puck, and Rachel out the door. Rachel and Quinn exchanged glances.
"Mr. Schue? Can I please stay? My dads know where I am so that won't we a problem." Quinn nodded furiously to show her approval of the idea. Mr. Schue agreed know that both girls were quite trustworthy. Once he was gone and Puck had gone to get some food Quinn and Rachel began to talk. After a few minutes of mindless small talk they began to get to the deep stuff.
"Quinn?" Quinn looked up
"Yeah?"
"Do you wanna? I mean… like could you…" Rachel muttered
"What?"
"Will you move in with me?" Rachel spouted. Quinn looked shocked. "I mean you don't have to. I totally understand if you'd prefer to stay with Puck…"
"No! I mean no… I really want to move in with you… If it's okay with your dads"
"Totally! I mean they'll love you!" Quinn smiled
"Rach… have you told them about you yet?" Rachel looked down.
"Not yet. But I will. When you get out of the hospital. I would really like you to be with me."
"Okay. I want to be with you too."
"So you'll move in with me?"
"I would love to!" Quinn pulled Rachel closer to her on the bed and beckoned for her to lie down. They lay like that cuddling for quite a while, as Puck seemed to be taking quite some time getting food.
Quinn was released from the hospital two days later. Rachel's dads were thrilled to have Quinn in their house and were happy to help decorate the nursery for Beth. Quinn felt guilty about all the stress she was giving them but Rachel was careful to make sure that Quinn knew it was not just for Beth but also for Baby #2 on the way all though her dads were unaware of this. While they reluctant to allow both girls to share a room, they knew about their relationship, they finally decided it would be best in allowing Beth to have her own room.
"Ready to go Kiddo?" Hiram asked Quinn helping her into the car. She nodded. Rachel was carrying Beth and she lowered her into her seat carefully and kissed her forehead before sitting next to Quinn.
As they drove to the Berry residence Quinn kept looking over Rachel to check on Beth despite Hiram's fine driving record. Rachel like seeing her do this, it made her feel like Quinn was a real mom. It was cool. The drive went smoothly and soon Quinn was hopping out of the car and picking Beth up from her seat.
"Hi baby… you just rode in a car! Wasn't that fun?" Quinn cooed to Beth. Rachel also loved when she talked in that adorable baby voice.
"Come on Quinn. I have to show you what we did with her room." Quinn happily followed. Rachel refrained from sprinting up the stairs due to the fact that Beth was in Quinn's arms. "Ta Da!" She said as she opened the door belonging to the previous guest room and current nursery.
The room was pink and blue with splashes of yellow. Rachel had hired a professional to paint the room. All the walls were pink asides from the wall with the window and crib (with room for a second crib), which was a pale blue. Pastel pink furniture highlighted the room and cute little animals were littered everywhere.
"Oh Rach…" Quinn gasped seeing the beautiful room
"No no! I'm not done!" Rachel swung open the closet door which were stuffed with baby clothes
"Rachel! Thank you so much!" She grabbed Rachel and pulled her into a hug mindful of the sleeping infant. "How can I ever repay you?"
"Don't even think about it. Seriously. But you could do me a favor."
"Anything. Really." Rachel nodded
"Put Beth in her crib, okay?" Quinn obeyed
"What do you need me to do?" Quinn inquired
"I want to tell my dads."
"Now?"
"Yes."
"Okay. So you want me to…"
"I just want you to be there with me. In case I forget what to say or whatever."
"Of course. No prob. Do you want to do it over dinner?"
"I was hoping after."
"Okay… got it."
Dinner was awkward to say the least. Rachel barely ate anything and Quinn kept looking at her comfortingly. The men at the table noticed the awkwardness but didn't say anything. As soon as Rachel finished she walked into the kitchen closely followed by Quinn.
"Now?" Quinn asked as she put her plate down next to Rachel's.
"Yes. We can have them sit in the living room." Quinn nodded
"Okay. You get in there, I'll go get them."
Minutes later the four were sitting in the living room. Hiram and Leroy each were in an armchair facing the two girls on the couch.
"What's up, Princess?" Leroy asked
"I have to tell you something."
"Shoot." Quinn gave her a confidence boost by squeezing her thigh
"I'm pregnant." Hiram stared at her blankly. Leroy looked from Quinn to his daughter to Quinn and back to Rachel. "I'm so sorry." Tears were falling down Rachel's face.
Hiram stood up and pulled her into a hug, "We're here for you baby. No matter what. And for our grandbaby." Leroy seconded by joining the hug. Quinn felt a tiny twinge of sadness at how different this was from her experiences but was happy for Rachel. Honest. She was.
