Part 1

Quinn spent the whole day Sunday trying to avoid Puck because she still could not talk to him. She went to the grocery and to target, she even went to the book store to find something new to read (she had been reading a lot more lately). But she eventually had to go home because Puck's mom and sister were going to be back from his uncle's house in Cincinnati that night and Ms. Puckerman wanted everyone to have another family dinner.

When Quinn arrived home Puck's mom was already in the kitchen (she wanted to cook the dinner this time). Quinn smiled at the sight of her happily moving around the kitchen, making a family dinner for the first time in years. She went to drop off all her bags in her room and she was unsatisfied to find that Puck was in there playing video games as usual.

"Quinn can we talk about this now?" he asked pausing his video game.

"Can we do this after dinner?" she asked. "I don't wanna ruin it for your mom." He nodded and went back to playing his video game, probably something with the Mario and Luigi.

She quietly left the room and went back into the kitchen. "Ms. Puckerman, can I help you with anything?" Quinn asked walking into the kitchen. She needed something to do so she wouldn't have to sit in that room and watch as he played video games like a child.

"Sure, you can start by calling me Linda," she said. "If you're going to live here you can call me by my first name." Quinn gave a little laugh and nodded. "And secondly you can help by stirring around that meat over there. I thought we could have tacos tonight."

"Sounds good," Quinn said making her way over to the stove, stirring around the hamburger meat every few seconds as Linda prepared a salad and set the table. They did this in silence until Linda finally spoke.

"So how have you been lately?" she wondered. Quinn knew she was talking about the pregnancy but she wished she was talking about her life. She wished she could sit down and tell her everything she was feeling, how she was hurting inside like she used to her mom, but Linda was not her mom.

"We've been good," Quinn forced a smile as she gently rubbed her hand on her belly, she found herself doing this a lot lately.

"I'm glad," Linda looked at the ground. "I know I haven't really been that involved lately, in your pregnancy, but it's just taken me a long time to accept this is happening." Quinn nodded because she understood. At least she had come around and accepted the idea instead of ignoring it and pretending like it never happened, like her parents had done. "Anyway I just wanted to say I'm sorry and that I want to be more involved."

Quinn suddenly got a good idea. "I'll be right back," she said as she quickly walked back to her room and went to the closet. Puck watched her curiously as she rummaged through her bag until she finally found what she wanted and like that she left, without even acknowledging that he was in the room.

"I thought you might want to see these," Quinn said as she walked back into the kitchen. She held out the pictures from the last sonogram she went to and Linda, wide eyed, gently took them from her hand. "These are from my sixth month check up," Quinn explained. "The baby's healthy, a little under weight but I'm working on that."

Linda smiled as she stared intensely at the pictures. "This is amazing, these pictures are a lot more clear than when I was pregnant with Puck." Suddenly Quinn remembered the meat and ran over to turn off the stove. "It's ready," she told Linda breaking her from her trance.

"I'll go get Puck and Sarah," Quinn offered. "You can keep those if you want, I have another copy," Quinn offered again as she saw the way Linda was looking at the pictures.

"Thanks Quinn," she smiled and to Quinn's surprise she pulled her into a hug.

"No problem," Quinn said. It felt so good to be in the arms of an adult again, she just wished it was her own mom.

Dinner that night was kind of awkward, Quinn knew everyone could feel the tension between her and Puck but luckily they didn't ask. They ran out of stuff to talk about after Linda and Sarah shared about their weekend in Cinci.

Quinn was glad when the meal was over and she offered to wash the dishes again and once again she was stuck doing them with Puck. They washed the dishes together in silence, neither really knowing what to say. Puck knew that Quinn did not want to fight while his mom and sister were in the house.

"Do you want to take a walk?" she suggested when the dishes were done. He nodded and they walked out the door together.

Puck waited until they had passed a couple houses before he decided to speak. "Look, Quinn, I want to explain." Quinn nodded to let him go on She decided earlier that day that she would at least give him a chance. "I was going to go out with the guys, I promise, but Santana called and told me she needed to talk to me, that it was important. She sounded kind of worried so I decided to stay back but when she got here she was all dressed up in lingerie and before I knew it we were on the bed making out," he explained.

She didn't even know what to say; that wasn't even a good excuse. "Whatever, it doesn't matter, we're not together," Quinn said defensively. "I mean I'll admit for awhile I thought maybe we could be something more, but it's okay we can just go back to the way things were when we were friends and nothing more." She had spent enough time being mad at him that she just decided to let it go, they would just be friends from now on and after the baby was born, she would give it to a loving mother and a dad who was mature enough and capable of being a father.

"But Quinn, I want to be more with you," he took a deep breath, "I love you and I love our baby."

Why did he have to make this harder on her than it already was? "I'm sorry Noah but that's not going to happen, I just can't trust you." She tried to stop it but a tear slid down her beautiful, pale face. She knew he wanted to change, she knew he wanted to be a good father and a good boyfriend, but as their song at sectionals had said, you cant always get what you want.

That night Quinn lie in her bed thinking about her life. She knew that at school tomorrow news about what happened between Puck and Santana would get out and she would be completely humiliated. Everyone would be talking about Santana and Puck because they had hooked up. It seemed that was the only way to get talked about at school, to be a slut. That was why the news of her pregnancy had everyone in the school talking about her and now that it was old news no one cared about Quinn anymore; she was invisible now, but she was tired of going to school and being invisible. She was used to being the girl everyone looked up to, that everyone envied. Now people didn't even look her way when she walked down the hall. She needed to do something to get everyone talking about her again. She thought about it for an hour or so before she came up with a brilliant idea.

She woke up early for school the next morning so she could execute her plan. She quietly got dressed and slipped out of the house before anyone else woke up. She drove to school and went straight to the library, which opened an hour before school started.

She turned on the computer and logged in under glee club instead of her username in case they searched the computers to see who made it. She had already decided the order in which the list she was making would go. There was only one way she knew to get people to talk about her again. She was pregnant so people automatically assumed she was a slut, that she slept around before this happened to her, and even though it wasn't true, maybe it wouldn't be so bad if people thought it was. It would definitely get people to start talking about her again.

To make everyone think she was a slut and therefore start talking about her again, Quinn decided she would make a list of all the glee kids based on sexual promiscuity, which she cleverly named a glist. If she put herself at number one people would think maybe she wasn't as holy as she thought and surely she wouldn't be ignored in the hallways anymore.

When she was finally done she printed off a hundred copies and set about posting them around the school. She new by the end of first period this would be what everyone was talking about.

That afternoon in glee the bell rang and Mr. Schuster was not in the classroom yet. They sat there waiting, confused as to why he wasn't there yet. About two minutes later the door opened and Mr. Schuster stormed into the classroom. "Who did it?" he asked as he angrily held up a piece of paper Quinn recognized it as the list she made that morning. Everyone looked around trying to figure out who it was. Quinn acted cool, she wasn't going to give anything away. "This is serious, Principal Figgins is threatening to disband the club." Quinn was surprised he was so upset about this, she didn't think it would be a big deal when she made it.

"Why are we playing this game?" Santana said. "We all know it was Puck." Quinn knew she should've spoken up then and taken responsibility for her actions but she couldn't afford to get into trouble.

"Back off I didn't do squat," Puck said defensively.

"Then why's your girlfriend first on the glist?" Tina asked with angry eyes.

"And why am I last!" Rachel added. "Aside from the fact that I refused to put out for you." Quinn answered both those questions in her head. Quinn was first because she wanted to be noticed again, she wanted people to remember she existed at all and well, Rachel was last because Quinn had never liked her.

"Okay enough no one is accusing anyone of anything," Mr. Schuster cut in. He rolled his eyes to Puck, "Puck seriously did you do it?" She could tell by the look on his face he was offended everyone thought it was him.

"I said no," he practically yelled. "I'm a delinquent, sure, I like lighting stuff on fire and beating up people I don't know. I own that, but I'm not a liar." Quinn knew Puck enough to know that he would never do something like the glist. He was a physical guy, he bullied people face to face, he wasn't the kind of person to bully someone on paper.

She felt bad that everyone was blaming Puck but at least it gave everyone a suspect that wasn't her. As everyone discussed the matter further Quinn prayed that if no one came forward to making the glist than the whole thing would just go away.

Quinn's thoughts were soon forgotten as Mr. Schuster gave the club their assignment for the week. They were to find a forgotten song and rehabilitate it to make it popular again, kind of like what she had done with the glist. He then gave them the example of "Ice Ice Baby" and had everyone dancing and singing along. It was like cheerios all over again. As soon as Quinn got up and started to dance and sing everything went to the back of her mind and she was able to let go and just focus on the music.
