Chapter 10 - New Year
It's new years and everyone is making resolutions. Even Puck has one. I think that im the only one who has no idea what I want for my self in the new year and I have one day to figure it out. Puck wants to throw a new years party tonight so he's out buying everything , but I still need to get my mom out of the house before he gets back and I have the perfect idea.
My mom came downstairs and Beth and I were in the living room and she was playing with her toys. " Hey , mom ? " I asked. " Yes , honey ? " she asked. " Don't you think now is a good time to go and do something for yourself like go out to a spa retreat for the weekend. " I said to her. " But , Quinny New Years is tomorrow. " she said. " I know mom , but that's the point. I'll be gone all night and it's better for yoy to be out doing something then being alone. Who knows maybe you'll meet someone there. " I told her. " Are you sure ? What about you and Beth ? " she asked. " We'll be fine mom. I promise. Go. " I said. " Well , okay. I'm gonna go pack. " she said.
It's 3:30 and Puck's almost here. I'm so nervous that my mom won't be gone by the time he gets here. Next thing I knew she was coming down the stairs. " Alright Quinny I'm leaving now. " she said coming to the living room. " Okay , bye mom. I'll see you when you get back. " I said giving her a hug. " Bye Beth I love you. " she said holding Beth and giving her a kiss. My mom left and walked out the door. Perfect timing to because Puck just got here. " Hey , how'd you get rid of your mom ? " Puck asked. " Oh you know tell her to go have a weekend to herself. " I told him rapping my arms around his neck and kissing him. " Well let's get started then. " he said as he pulled out the beer and wine coolers. " I'm gonna go bring beth over to my grandma's she said she would watch her for the night " I said to Puck. " Okay I'll see you when you get back. " I grabbed my car keys and Beth and her overnight bag and left.
I got to my grandma's around 4:15 and I took Beth out of the car and grabbed her stuff. I walked up to the door and rang the bell. My grandma came and opened the door. " Hi my beautiful girls ! " she said giving me a hug and taking Beth. " Alright so here's her stuff and just incase things that might help her sleep or stop her from crying. " I said handing my grandma the bag and list. " Oh , Quinn do you have to leave right now ? " she asked. " Please , come in and have a cup of tea. " she said. " Okay , but just for a little. " I told her locking my car and walking inside. I sat down and she handed Beth to my grandfather. " Hey Quinn ." he said. " Hey. " I replied. " Let me make some tea. " My grandma said. By the time the tea was done and we finished I realized it was 5:50. " Oh crap. I didn't realize the time. I got to go , but I'll see you tomorrow when I come to pick her up. " I said to my grandma. " Okay honey , it was nice seeing you. " she said. " Bye. " I said hugging her and Beth and I got in my car and left.
When I got home it was 6:20 and everyone was already there. " Where have you been ? " Puck asked as I walked in. " Sorry , my grandma kept me there for a while. " I said. " Well , I'm glad you're here now. " Puck said giving me a kiss. " Hey girl. Where you been ? " Mercedes said giving me a hug. " Sorry , I was dropping Beth off. " I told her. Everyone was already basically drunk. So I grabbed a beer and joined.
We danced , sang , played spin the bottle , and laughed. It was a lot of fun and it's finally 11:59 and 10 seconds to midnight. We all started to count down and once it was the new year Puck and I kissed. " You know what I realized. " I said to him. " What ? " he asked looking into my eyes. " I don't need a resolution , I have everything the way I like it. I'm captain of the cheerios , I have Beth , and I have you. What could be better then that ? " I said. " I love you. " he told me. " I love you too. " I said giving him a kiss. " Well I think we're all gonna leave. " Rachel said. " Okay bye guys. " I said. " Great party though. " Blaine said. " Thanks. " I said hugging Puck.
" Well everyone's gone. " he said. " Yeah I know. " I told him. " Come on let's go lay down. " I said taking his hand and walking upstairs. We went to my room and layed down. I looked into his eyes and I knew I was so in love with him. We started to kiss and it got very intense and I started pulling of his shirt. " Wait. " he said. " No , this time I'm sure. Besides my mom has me on birth control and I love you. I don't want to be with anyone else. I really want this. It's not like the first time. This time I'm in a hundred percent. " I said. He smiled and looked at me and we began kissing. I pulled of his shirt and we rolled over so I was on top. I knew tonight would be amazing.
The next morning I woke up and Puck wasn't in the bed. I got up and put on my robe and slippers and went downstairs. The house was clean and I could smell food cooking. I saw Puck in the kitchen and I was amazed. There was waffles and bacon all ready on the table with glasses of orange juice and Beth was already home. " Oh , wow. I can't believe you did all this. " I said shocked. " Well , I wanted to let you sleep in. " he said. I walked over to him and gave him a kiss. " I love you and last night was amazing. " I said. " I love you too and yes it was. " He said. I sat on his lap and we all ate like a perfect family.
