It was Monday and I had gotten to school early for the first time in a long time. Morning sickness had decided to leave me alone earlier. I hadn't talked to Puck since he dropped me off at home on Friday night. Even though I had been getting along with him, it still seemed awkward to talk to him. I wasn't used to it. I was also afraid he was going to read too much into that peck on the lips. I was just proud of him, and yeah maybe it felt nice, but Puck wasn't the guy for me. The guy for me was a taller quarterback who I had hurt so badly.

I walked into the school and saw Britney with Kurt talking. She said goodbye to me and quickly pranced over to me. She was smiling extra big at me.

"What?" I asked. I looked down to see if I had put my Cheerio's uniform inside out or something. Nope, that wasn't it.

She giggled. "You totally had sex with Puck on Friday!"

I could feel my eyes bugging out of their sockets. I pulled Britney down an empty hall. I couldn't let her think me and Puck have ever did anything remotely sexual. I had to keep it a secret for as long as possible… for my reputation, of course.

"No, I'm president of the celibacy club Brit! I wouldn't do that." I was playing the innocent card as hard as I could.

Britney laughed. "But you said you were coming to the party on Friday and you were with him last, and then you both didn't show up. You don't have to lie to me Quinn. Was he any good?"

"Gross," I replied, "I promise we didn't Britney. My parents called and said that I had to go hoe immediately so he drove me home. That's it. Sorry there's no scandal."

"Thank God, Santana would have killed you."

I nodded in agreement. "No one else thinks that me and Puck…did that, right?

Britney shook her head. "No, I was just assuming. I shouldn't have doubted your faith though, Quinn. You're such a role model."

I had to leave then. I said goodbye to Britney and walked away. I hated that I had let everyone down. I had disappointed them and they didn't even know. I had done something so terrible, and so irresponsible.

Even though Puck and I were getting along now, I was still in love with Finn. He was the guy I wanted to be with. He was so nice, so cute, and I always knew that he would do anything for me. Even though I couldn't to make sure Puck wouldn't get in trouble, I wanted to clock Rachel when she said that Finn and herself had feelings for each other and wanted to stop keeping it a secret. I hoped to God that him telling Rachel that he didn't want to hurt me was just an excuse. Maybe he was just waiting until this baby problem was out of the way for us to get together.

But I wasn't that naïve. Why would he take me back? I cheated on him. Worse, I did it with his best friend. Granted, I was drunk and so mad at him for joining Glee, but if the situation was reversed and it had been him and Santana, I never would have forgiven him.

I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around. It was Rachel. I rolled my eyes. She didn't notice. Rachel was oblivious to things that didn't involve her.

"Quinn, I was wondering if I could talk to you… in private."

I shrugged my shoulders. Arguing wouldn't work with Rachel. We walked into an empty classroom. I sat on a desk as Rachel stood across from me.

"What?" I asked.

"I wanted to talk to you about… your situation." Rachel said matter-of-factly.

What was she talking about? She couldn't possibly know. I was positive Finn wouldn't have told her and there would be no other signal for her to pick up on.

"Is this about me not being able to hit that high note Rachel, because I'm trying and I know you think everyone should be able to be as good as you without practice but singing isn't something I've been doing since birth?"

Rachel looked confused.

"I don't expect people to be as good as me."

I folded my arms and gave my best look of annoyance to Rachel.

"Just say what you have to say Rachel."

Rachel took a deep breath. "You haven't been doing any flips or jumps in Cheerio's. You keep skipping Glee Club, or having to leave every half an hour to puke or go to the washroom. You and Finn broke up without a warning. Finn punched Puck. Finn said it was because you two kissed. You were trying to protect Puck. You rescheduled celibacy club meetings from every week to every month."

No. She couldn't know. I don't care if she knew all of those facts. She couldn't be able to piece it all together. My own parents didn't know. Rachel Berry could not know that I was pregnant. She especially couldn't know that it was Puck's baby. I knew that she could see the look of worry on my face.

"Quinn, are you and Puck… having a baby?" She whispered the last part.

I was in shock. I thought that no one would find out. Well, at least not until my third trimester.

I started crying. I couldn't help it. I knew that it would give away my answer but I didn't care. Rachel knew. There was no point in trying to deny it. She knew, and I was dead-meat.

Rachel walked over to me and sat beside me on the desk. She gave me a hug. I didn't know why, but she was being friendly. Probably just a way to get to Finn, but it was nice. I put my head on her shoulder as I cried.

"I'm stupid." I said.

Rachel stroked my hair. "No, you're not Quinn. You made a mistake. You're going to be fine. Does Puck know?"

I nodded.

"How is he reacting to the news?

I was crying heavily but I managed to get out a few words. "He wants to raise the baby. He wants to be a good dad."

Rachel gave me a big hug. "That's good news Quinn! He's going to be there for you."

I stood up and faced Rachel. I shook my head. "What are people going to think about me Rachel? I'm President of Celibacy club! I'm the leader of my church's youth group! Puck was Finn's best friend. I'm a slut."

"Quinn, we don't get along."

I wiped the tears from my eyes. "That's nice to hear."

"What I'm trying to say is that we don't get along, but I don't think you're a slut. You just made a mistake. So what? I've made mistakes. Everyone has."

"This one is big. You can't tell anyone Rachel."

Rachel nodded. "I wasn't planning to. And I said that we don't get along but Quinn, I want to help you. Whenever you need it, I'll be there for you. No girl should have to do this by herself. I know you have Puck but you're robably going to want someone to talk to other than him sometimes."

I folded my arms. "Do you mean it Rachel?"

"Of course," She cried, "Have you told your parents yet?"

I shook my head wildly. "No. I'm not telling them until at least I'm 12 weeks along. The internet said that the first 3 months are the most likely for miscarriages to occur."

Rachel stood up fast. "Quinn! You can't talk like that. You're going to have the baby so you're going to need to tell your parents. It's better to tell them sooner than later. They'll have more of an opportunity to help you."

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

Rachel shifted her weight from one foot to the other.

"Because you're in over your head and if I were in your position I would want a friend who could help me without judging me."

My eyebrows rose. "We're friends?"

Rachel nodded. "If you want. We don't have to sit together at lunch, gossip in the hallways or hang out after school. But if you want someone to talk to, as a friend, well I'll be there for you Quinn."

I smiled. "People aren't usually this nice to me."

Rachel gave me another hug. She gave me a piece of paper with numbers neatly scribbled on it.

"It's my cell phone number. If you ever want to talk, or need me for some reason. I'll be there for you."

I nodded and it was then the bell rang. Me and Rachel parted as we went to our different classes.

The next two days were mostly filled with no drama. I called Rachel Tuesday night and we talked about my doctor appointment the next day. She reassured me that everything would be fine, and offered to come with me. I told her it was something I should do on my own but I appreciated it. It was weird being semi-friends with Rachel but she was actually a nice person when you got past all the crazy self-confidence and arrogance. At least I could talk to her about the baby without crazy drama, like it was with Puck.

Wednesday afternoon came fast. Puck had sent me a text saying good luck in my last period. We had planned for me to go to the doctor's while he worked and I would then stop by his house after I was done at the doctor's.

As soon as the bell rang I darted out of the school. I got into my car and drove to the doctor's. My worst fear was that they were going to tell me that my baby had three heads or something. Or that there were three babies. That would royally suck.

Rachel had told me that everything was gong to be fine and that since my physician wasn't a baby doctor he probably wasn't going to be able to tell me much. She was trying to convince me to tell my parents fast so that I could see an appropriate doctor and get an ultrasound and all that jazz. She clearly didn't know how my parents would react. They'd probably prefer if I was a drug addict or failing school.

I parked my car into the lot of the doctor's office. I opened the door of my car and walked towards the building. I made my way to the doors. I stopped as I reached them. This was going to be scary. I took a deep breath. I opened the door and went inside.

So this wasn't the chapter of drama I was referring to. This chapter turned out longer then I expected so I decided to split the chapter into 2 parts. This part is needed to advance the storyline and I hope you all like it!

Rachel and Quinn are becoming close. That's new and slightly weird, but I can see Rachel reaching out to Quinn in her time of need.

The next chapter will have all of the juicy drama so if I get on the computer tomorrow I'll try and post it.
