Anywho, here is the next instalment, hope you enjoy!
~^~^~^~ Wednesday Afternoon ~^~^~^~
Grace was nervous, after school she was supposed to be meeting up with Hannah at the park for a few hours. It wasn't a date, it was sort of a 'get-to-know-each-other' type thing but still Grace was bricking it. She really needed to talk to Sofia and get her advice but the two still haven't said a word to each other since the weekend and that unfortunate incident that occurred. Grace had tried to message her friend but just couldn't bring herself to do it. Rachel and Quinn urged her to go over and talk to Sofia face-to-face but Grace was too scared and embarrassed to do that.
The last bell of the day rang out and the students all headed to their lockers and get out of school as fast as possible. Grace moved quickly through the mass of teenagers to get to her own locker when she bumped into someone.
"I'm so sorry" Grace said as she helped pick up the other person's books that had fallen to the floor in their collision
"S'ok" They replied
Grace looked up and handed the book over but froze when she realised that the person she had run into was Sofia. The Latina also looked a little shocked but hesitantly took the book accidently brushing her finger tips over Grace's. At the touch Grace quickly pulled her hand back and looked away.
"Thanks" Sofia softly mumbled
Grace just gave her a small smile
Wow this wasn't awkward at all.
"Well I better…" Grace said as she pointed towards where her locker was
"Yeah…me too" Sofia replied
The two girls just sort of stood there not moving, until Hannah came over to the two breaking up a bit of the tension only to replace it with a whole load of other tension.
"Hey" she greeted Grace with a charming smile
"H-Hey" Grace replied
"You ready to go?" She asked
"Oh, um yeah sure I just need to go to my locker"
Sofia stood there watching to two interact and couldn't help but feel a little left out and there was some other nagging feeling somewhere in there too that she couldn't quite pinpoint at that moment and it was irritating.
Grace turned to look at the Latina and gave her a small smile before saying a quick goodbye and headed off to her locker with Hannah. Yep this nagging feeling was just getting a little annoying now. Sofia saw Greg waiting for her at her locker so she walked over to him and kissed him hard not caring about the jocks that were standing by cheering and whistling at her. For a moment that nagging feeling went away. She pulled away from her boyfriend and just winked at his friends. Greg had noticed that his girlfriend was acting strangely the last couple of days and was a little concerned. Not that he didn't mind the random and hot make out sessions but sometimes it just felt a little forced on Sofia's part and it wasn't like it used to be when they would kiss.
Grace and Hannah walked together through the park chatting and getting to know one another.
"So do you miss being in Australia?" Grace asked
"Kinda…I mean I miss my friends and ok this might sound lame but I miss my Famer's Union Ice Coffee" Hannah replied and blushed a little
Grace laughed and raised an eyebrow at her
"Its good ok" She defended
"I'm just gonna take your word on it" Grace smiled
"You know you don't really have a broad accent" Grace stated
"You sound disappointed"
"No…just…making an observation" Grace blushed
"Well I try not to go too Aussie otherwise people have trouble understanding me…well they did at my last school anyway"
The two girls continue to wander around the park they ended up getting ice-cream from the small vendor across the road.
"Do your parents know that you're gay?" Grace asked
"Well…I've never come out and told them, but I'm pretty sure they know. How about yours?"
"Yeah they know…I should probably tell you, I have two gay moms" Grace replied
"Oh…well I guess that made coming out a hell of a lot easier" Hannah chuckled
"Yeah…it helped" Grace replied with a laugh
"You have a really pretty smile" Hannah told her
Grace looked away and blushed not used to having a hot girl (other than Sofia) tell her she had a pretty smile.
"You know Grace…I have to admit that…well the only reason I asked you out was because your friend told me to" Hannah started
Grace looked disappointed and the offended, she was about to say something when Hannah cut her off
"But…I'm really glad she did because…I kinda like you and I was wondering if you would go out on a proper date with me"
"Uh…yeah I'd…I'd really like that" Grace answered with a shy smile.
~^~^~^~ Berry-Fabray Residence ~^~^~^~
Wednesdays were Quinn and Rachel's favourite day of the week and not just because it always made Quinn giggle when it was referred to as Hump Day, but it was because it was the only day that both Quinn and Rachel got home from work early. Mercedes and Quinn decided early on when they started their business that they would choose one day that they would finish early so they wouldn't get bogged down in their work and would be better for their family life. Rachel's job as Drama and Music director at the high school and Glee Club director meant that she usually worked late after school but she had managed to get Wednesdays off early. Rachel loved her job but she needed 'Rachel Berry' time as well.
It was 4:15pm which gave them around an hour or so before their kids would arrive home. Toby had basketball practice, Grace was meeting a friend and Charlie was going over to the Pierce house after school to practice singing with Ben for their upcoming duet.
The two women were in the living room giggling and dancing around the room holding a microphone each and singing.
(Quinn)
I got flowers; in the spring
I got you to wear my ring
(Rachel)
And when I'm sad, you're a clown
And if I get scared your always around
Don't let them say your hairs to long
Coz I don't care, with you I can't go wrong
(Quinn)
Then put your little hand in mine
There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb
Babe
Quinn took a hold of Rachel's hand and quickly kissed it.
(Quinn & Rachel)
I got you babe
(Quinn)
I got you to hold my hand
(Rachel)
I got you to understand
(Quinn)
I got you to walk with me
(Rachel)
I got you to talk with me
(Quinn)
I got you to kiss goodnight
(Rachel)
I got you to hold me tight
(Quinn)
I got you, I won't let go
(Rachel)
I got you to love me so!
(Quinn & Rachel)
I got you babe.
The song finished and the two burst out giggling…ok so they had broken out the wine as soon as they got home. They fell onto the couch together with Rachel sitting on Quinn's lap still giggling. The blonde warped her arms tightly around her wife and rested her head on her shoulder.
"Mmmm….you smell nice" Quinn purred
"I know" Rachel replied then laughed
"And you're so modest" Quinn added
"And your horny" Rachel retorted as she looked down to where her wife's hands had moved to.
Both firmly attached to Rachel's breasts.
"I can't help it if Cher gets me going" Quinn giggled
Rachel burst out laughing
"God I can't believe she's still alive and hasn't aged at all" The brunette said after calming down
"I know…I'm telling ya she's not human…she'll probably outlive us all!" Quinn giggled as she began to gently massage Rachel's chest making her squirm.
"Mmmm…Quinn stop we don't have time" Rachel moaned not sounding convincing at all.
"Yeah we do" Quinn mumbled as she began to kiss her wife's neck
"Lay down" The blonde whispered into Rachel's ear
Not putting up any resistance Rachel quickly got up from Quinn's lap and then laid down on the couch and in no time Quinn was straddling the brunette and making work on undoing Rachel's blouse and gently nipping at her collarbone. Rachel threaded her hands through Quinn's long blonde hair.
"Baby, we don't have time for foreplay" Rachel mumbled
Quinn grinned against Rachel's neck as she quickly moved so she was now in between her wife's legs and bunched up her skirt around her hips. She slowed down a fraction as she trailed her fingertips along Rachel's inner thighs making her whimper. Quinn finally reached her destination and cupped her wife's sex and groaned at the moisture already there.
"Quinn" Rachel moaned
Not wasting any more time Quinn pushed aside the drenched underwear and thrust two fingers deep inside her wife both groaned at the feeling. Quinn began a steady rhythm as Rachel wrapped her legs tightly around the blonde to draw her in deeper. While Quinn built her up she began to suck on Rachel's neck and gently kneaded her right breast. The blonde kissed her way up to Rachel's lips and kissed her deeply even though both were beginning to pant heavily as a fine sheen of sweat began to cover their bodies. Quinn began to thrust harder and faster intent on making Rachel scream. But suddenly Quin stopped; Rachel opened her eyes and looked incredibly annoyed
"What?"
"Did you hear that?" She asked
"No…keep going I'm so close" Rachel whined
Quinn just shrugged and went back to what she was doing…not her wisest move.
"Hey, I'm ho….OH MY GOD!" Grace screeched in horror as she entered the living room.
Quinn abruptly stopped and both of their eyes shot open and looked over to where their eldest daughter was standing in shock, both Quinn and Rachel had the whole dear caught in headlights look going for them and then Grace quickly ran back out of the house slamming the door behind her.
Quinn hid her face in Rachel's shoulder
"That did not just happen" she whined
"We should go after her" Rachel suggested
Quinn pulled her head away in shock
"Are you kidding? We can't…I can't…not after…how did this happen? We've managed to never get caught by our kids for 16 years! And for us…me especially that's like…some kind of miracle! But now? God how can I face her again after her seeing me violate her mother like that." Quinn ranted
"Quinn you weren't violating me" Rachel rolled her eyes
"Oh god…why me? Why? What have I done to deserve this?" Quinn mumbled
"Quinn honey, it'll be fine" Rachel tried to assure her
"How can you be so blasé about all this?"
"I'm not…I'm horrified that our daughter saw us like this but I know it's not the end of the world and that she will get over it" Rachel replied
"Now are you going to finish or not, because if you're not then can you please remove your fingers" Rachel asked
Quinn looked down at her wife completely dumbfounded. She contemplated her options. 1) Pull out and have an angry frustrated wife or 2) Just quickly finish and then try to forget this day ever happened but have a satisfied and happy wife.
Option two it is.
Poor, poor Gracie aimlessly wondered down the street after experiencing one of the worst things ever. Walking in on her parents having sex. She shuddered at the memory.
It was six o'clock when Toby arrived home from basketball practice and Charlie came home from next door, Grace had yet to return home. Quinn and Rachel were beginning to get worried.
"Where is Gracie?" Charlie asked as she helped her mom set the kitchen table.
"Um…she'll be home soon sweetie" Quinn replied
Toby came into the kitchen and gave his Ma a big hug and asked
"Do you want me to help with anything?"
Rachel raised her eyebrow at her son, he hated cooking…or cleaning or doing anything really, he was quite lazy sometimes.
"Ok what do you want?" She asked
"I don't want anything"
"Really?"
He just nodded
"Ok so then why are you being so chipper and helpful?" She asked warily
"I'm just in a good mood is all" He replied
"Oh? And what's brought this on?" She asked as she handed him some carrots and a knife
"I'm going on a date with Olivia on Friday what can I say? Girl can't resist these bad boys" He replied as he flexed his muscles showing off his 'guns'
Rachel just rolled her eyes
"Well I'm glad you're happy sweetie…where are you taking her?"
"Dunno yet…maybe Alfie's…or like make a picnic or something girls love that romantic shit right?" He asked
Rachel gently slapped him on his arm
"Don't swear" She reprimanded him
"And yes girls like romance…a picnic sounds nice, it's also less expensive"
"Well I don't want to go on a cheap date Ma"
"It's not cheap, it's romantic and it looks like you've put a lot of thought into it…your mother took me on a picnic for our first date" Rachel smiled
"I'll think about it" He replied
Mother and Son finished preparing the food while Quinn and Charlie finished setting the table. Quinn was getting more and more worried about Grace, she had texted her five times already and she hasn't replied back yet. She was about to go out looking for her when the front door opened and Grace walked in.
"Oh my god! Gracie where the hell have you been? You could have replied to my messages!" Quinn pretty much yelled
Grace was having trouble looking at her mother in the eye, she was hoping everything would be fine when she got home…no, she was wrong. Quinn noticed that her daughter was getting uncomfortable so she toned down her voice and pulled her aside, unfortunately she had pulled her into the room of the scene of the crime.
"Look Gracie…about what happened this afternoon…w-what you saw…I…"
"Please mom I really don't want to have this conversation because then the horrible memories will come back and it's just bad…it's all…so…bad" Grace interrupted still unable to look her mother in the eye.
"Honey…it's…I mean…you know I love your mother and sometimes we-"
"Ahhh…..no! I don't want to hear it!" Grace placed both hands over her ears
"Grace." Quinn yelled as she pulled her daughter's hands away from her ears
The young girl sighed
"Look mom…I know ok…I know you two…have sex, but it's one thing to know about it and it's a whole other thing when you see it and can you please burn that couch because I will never be able to sit on it again I can't even look at it" Grace replied.
"Honey we're not going to burn the couch we only bought it last year"
At that point Rachel came into the living room to inform Quinn that dinner was ready
"Oh Gracie your home, thank god!" Rachel sighed with relief and then hugged her daughter, she did happen to notice that she flinched
"Sweetie about today"
"AHhhh….no more! We already talked about this!" Gracie whined as she headed out of the living room.
Dinner was an awkward affair if there ever was one. Grace avoided all eye contact with her mothers and Quinn couldn't help but feel embarrassed, Rachel tried not to show how uncomfortable she really was about her daughter finding her and Quinn together like that. It was just something about her being her daughter that made it ten times more worse than it being someone like Judy, or Santana, or Brittany, or her fathers, or Mercedes, or Mr. Shue or the mailman…ok so a lot of people have walked in on them, they really had some bad luck sometimes.
~^~^~^~ Friday Night ~^~^~^~
Tonight was the night that Toby would go on his date with Olivia. What nobody outside of his family knows was this was actually his very first date with a girl…ever. He liked to pretend that he was this big stud who had been with lots of girls but he really wasn't. He didn't want his family to know but he was actually really nervous about tonight. Being the only male of the family he liked to think he was strong and was the man of the house who looked after his moms and his sisters. That he was the top dog. He had always been like this; he was a real man's man if you will. So any sign of weakness was bad in his eyes. This type of thinking sometimes worried Quinn because every now and then it could be a facial expression or a turn of phrase but it would sometimes remind her of her father and that scared her.
Toby saw his role as the protector and he was to a degree…whenever a spider needed killing he was there to do it or whenever there was a weird sound outside at night he would always go check it out…ok so Quinn went with him as well, but he would always say it was because he needed someone to hold the flash light while he held the baseball bat.
He was upstairs in his room shirtless and only in his nice pair of jeans he was looking around his room for a top to wear that didn't smell like feet. He was getting frustrated because he couldn't find anything to wear when Quinn gently knocked on his door holding a freshly cleaned and ironed shirt.
"Thanks mom" he mumbled as he slipped on the shirt and went over to the mirror to do his hair
"So…how you feeling about tonight?" Quinn asked as she took a seat on Toby's bed
"Fine" He replied
Quinn could tell he was nervous, so she didn't want to push him otherwise he would just get angry. He reminded Quinn of her so much sometimes when she was his age (pre-Beth anyway).
"I just wanted to go over some rules your Ma and I have come up with now that you've started dating" Quinn stated
Toby didn't respond he just continued with his hair so Quinn continued
"We want you home by 11pm no later otherwise you're grounded. If things go well and you and Olivia continue to see each other there will be an open door policy. Also we just ask that you treat each other with respect and don't rush things…ok? Does that seem fair?"
Toby just nodded
"Good…well if you have any questions or…need any advice on wooing a girl, don't hesitate to ask I'm kinda an expert" Quinn added
Toby couldn't help but laugh
"Hey! I mean it! I was awesome at coming up with dates, just ask your Ma."
"Mom, you've dated like one girl you're whole life, that doesn't make you an expert…that makes you kinda lame" Toby laughed
"I am not lame! And the fact that I've only been with your Ma just proves how good I am…I mean we've been together since we were 16 and she's still here so I must be doing something right" Quinn challenged
"She's only with you coz of your money, she told me so" He replied
Quinn faked looking offended
"Well jokes on her, coz I ain't worth that much that was all Russell's money" She tried to get her ghetto speak out and once again she failed miserably.
"Mom, don't talk like that…it's embarrassing"
"You don't say that when Aunty San does it"
"Yeah well Aunty San is badass and your…not"
Quinn gasped
"Take that back!"
Toby just laughed and soon enough Quinn joined him
"Mom can I ask you something?"
"Of course"
"Do you…do you ever miss your dad?" He asked
Quinn really hadn't expected that. Her kids all knew about Russell leaving her and Judy when she was 16 and never looked back. Of course they had edited the story somewhat completely skipping over the pregnancy and what had happened because of it. Quinn wanted to tell her children, she just didn't know how and she had been telling herself that she would do it when they are all old enough to understand what happened and why she made the decisions that she did.
"Oh…um…w-well…I guess I miss having a dad…but I don't miss him" She answered
"Does he know about us?" He asked
Quinn shook her head
"No…I don't even think he knows I'm married or that I've left Lima…why do you ask?"
"I was just wondering"
"Ok…well baby it's nearly 8 o'clock you better get a move on…girls hate it when their dates are late"
"Speaking from personal experience?" He chuckled
"Oh it was like one time and that was only because my car broke down…she's never let me live that one down!" Quinn mumbled as she walked out of her son's room.
~^~^~^~ Later that Night ~^~^~^~
Quinn and Rachel were sitting in the living room watching TV, Charlie was in bed and Grace was talking on her phone up in her room when Toby slammed the front door startling his mothers and then he ran up to his room. Quinn and Rachel gave each other a questioning and worried look.
"Should we both go up or tag team?" Quinn asked
"Well you know how he gets if we both bombard him, he doesn't like feeling weak and needing his mommies so I think we should go one at a time" Rachel replied
"Ok" Quinn sighed
Both women turned to face each other and proceeded in the age old act of Rock, Paper, Scissors. Quinn lost
"Damn it"
"Quinn you always go with scissors, you're so predictable" Rachel laughed
"Well I guess I just have scissors on my mind lately." Quinn replied with a smirk and wiggled her eyebrows
"What? That doesn't even make senc…oh Quinn!" Rachel finally got the innuendo
The blonde just laughed
"Your terrible Muriel" Rachel sighed
"You love it"
"I only love you for your body nothing else" Rachel replied
"Oh really?" Quinn asked raising her eyebrow
"Yep"
"Well seeing as we're being honest I'm only with you because you have a nice rack" Quinn sighed
Rachel just rolled her eyes and chuckled
"You know the older you get the more you turn into a horny teenage boy"
Quinn looked mocked offended
"Well I can't help it if I'm married to a sexy brunette with nice boobs" She replied and groped her wife for good measure.
"Quinn!" Rachel yelped then giggled
"You're supposed to be seeing what's wrong with our son" she added
Quinn huffed and pulled herself up from the couch
"Fine, but when I come back I expect to be ravished" Quinn sighed
She then headed up the stairs to see what was wrong with her son. Rachel just smiled and shook her head at her wife.
Quinn softly knocked on Toby's door, when he didn't respond she hesitantly walked in praying that she wasn't going walk in on anything that she really didn't want to see ever again. Thankfully she didn't. Toby was lying on his bed mumbling into his pillow.
"Stupid, stupid, stupid" He cried
"Toby are you ok? Did something happen with Olivia?" Quinn asked as she took a seat next to her son on his bed.
The boy just groaned in frustration
"Ok I'm going to take that as a yes. Want to talk about it?" She asked
"NO!" He yelled into his pillow
"Toby, honey you know you can talk to me about anything. It might make you feel better."
"No it won't and it's not something you can talk about with your mother so can you please just leave me alone so I can go die in a hole?" Toby replied
"Toby your being overdramatic, come on it can't be that bad…unless it's about sex." Quinn laughed.
Toby groaned and refused to look at his mother. After seeing her son's reaction Quinn's eyes went wide and she just sat there in shock as realisation hit her…they were going to have the sex talk and she wasn't prepared. It was only the first date! Wasn't it? We're they already having sex before dating and now dating has ruined everything? Was sex not dating? She was so confused right now.
Last time Quinn and Rachel had 'the talk' with Grace it didn't end well. Rachel went into far too much detail and Quinn just got nervous and flustered and blurted out some stuff she probably shouldn't have and probably scarred her daughter for life. She then realised that they would have to have the sex talk again with Grace now that she's told them that she's gay.
"Well Toby….I mean….I guess as you get older you will want to…..you will have these…urges to want to do…stuff…but I…we would prefer it that you wait I mean it was just the first date an-"
"Oh God Mom please just stop. I cannot have this conversation with you!"
"I'm just trying to help." Quinn replied softly. She suddenly had the strangest feeling of déjà-vu she felt as though she had, had this conversation before but couldn't yet figure out why.
"Are you having sex with Olivia?" She bluntly asked making her son blush a deep red
"No." He replied
"Toby" Quinn always knew when her son was lying or hiding something from her, he was too much like Quinn and she knew all the tricks of the trade when it came to covering something up.
"We aren't having sex" Toby reiterated
"Well good, because your far too young for that" Quinn sighed in relief
"So what's wrong then?" She asked
"I can't tell you it's too embarrassing" He mumbled
"Come on Toby you can talk to me about anything, I promise I won't get mad or say something stupid and embarrass you…or myself" Quinn replied.
Toby sighed and sat up taking a quick glance at his mother before looking back down again.
"We…we weren't having sex but I mean…we were making out and….god this is so embarrassing." He began to tell her.
"And what?" Quinn asked slowly with a sudden feeling of realisation that she might know what. That her son was not only similar to Quinn when it came to trying to hide things but he was a lot more similar to his mother then she had thought. She now knew why this conversation seemed so familiar.
"I came" He mumbled feeling incredibly embarrassed, wishing the world would open up and swallow him whole. Quinn sat there a little in shock, eyes wide open and unable to formulate words.
"Oh my god it's hereditary?" Quinn mumbled to herself
"What?" Toby asked confused
"Nothing" Quinn quickly replied
"This shouldn't be happening to me!" Toby yelled then feel back onto his bed
After getting over her shock Quinn spoke up
"Toby there is nothing to be ashamed about its very common and you were probably just overwhelmed that you just got a little excited and-"
"Mom please!"
"It might just be a one-time thing."
"Really?"
"Umm…yeah sure" Quinn answered knowing full well that it might not be.
"So it won't happen again?" He asked in a hopeful voice
"Um…w-well…I mean…no, nope never again" Quinn replied feeling horrible for lying to her son.
Toby looked relieved and Quinn felt guilty
"But you know…I mean if it were to happen again…you could maybe try thinking of other stuff to distract you or something…maybe think about…maths…I've heard or read it somewhere apparently that helps" Quinn mumbled getting more and more flustered she really didn't want to explain to her son that she had a similar problem.
"Or you could practice on yourself while you…um…do…stuff and before you…um…come, you stop and wait a few minutes then start again" Quinn continued getting more and more flustered
Toby looked mortified
"But you know I might be wrong, it might never happen again" Quinn quickly replied
Quinn came down the stairs slightly horrified about what had just happened, Rachel looked at her wife with concern.
"Quinn, what happened? Is he ok? What's wrong?" She asked in a rush
"He's…it's fine Rach…he'll be ok it was just…boy troubles" She replied
"Boy troubles? What does that mean?" Rachel asked
"Nothing, it's been sorted and everything is fine" Quinn tried to reassure her, Rachel wasn't going to give up through
"Quinn, just tell me what happened"
The blonde sighed and sat down on the couch, Rachel followed.
"He…ok remember that one day we were making out on your couch it was like two months after we became a couple and things got pretty heavy and I may have…arrived rather quickly" Quinn explained quietly
"Yeah, but what's that got to do with anything?" Rachel replied
Quinn gave her a look but apparently Rachel was a little slow today.
"Same thing happened to Toby" Quinn finally explained.
"Oh…..OHH" Rachel finally got it, she couldn't help but giggle a little bit
"Rach it's not funny! It was horrible for me just think what it's like for him. This stuff is like ten times more worse for boys" Quinn exclaimed
"I'm sorry sweetie but come on it is pretty ironic"
"What is?"
"Well out of all our children Toby being the only one biologically yours and he has the same problem as you did" Rachel explained
Quinn did not look amused
"Oh come on you gotta be able to laugh at yourself sometimes Quinn"
"Not funny Rach" Quinn pouted.
"Well what did you say to him then?" Rachel asked
"I just told him about the distraction thing and…the practicing"
Rachel eye's went wide
"You told him to masturbate?"
"What? NO…I…well…maybe….I think I did…I don't know I got all flustered and you know what happens when I get like that I just start blurting things out that I really shouldn't and then things get awkward." Quinn ranted
"Did you tell him about your problem?"
"Oh god no! I'm not telling my son I had a similar problem when I was around his age. That's too embarrassing…even for me. I'm still recovering from Gracie walking in on us"
"Should I go up and talk to him about it?"
"No, I wouldn't…he's embarrassed enough…maybe a bit later on but not right now" Quinn replied.
Just then Grace came down the stairs and announced her arrival
"Child entering the room! I repeat there is a child entering the room!"
She's been doing this every time she goes into a room since that unfortunate afternoon.
"We're just sitting and talking Gracie" Rachel informed her
"Just making sure" She replied as she fully entered the room. She refused to go near that couch.
She sat down in the lazy boy and looked over at her mothers
"Can you two not sit so closely together?" She asked
Rachel just rolled her eyes
"Well at least not on that couch, please?"
Both women sighed and moved an inch apart from each other
"Better?" Quinn asked
"Yes, thank you…what was with all the noise before with all the doors slamming?" She asked
"It was nothing, just Toby…being Toby." Quinn replied
"What have you been up to? Who were you talking on the phone to for nearly two hours?" Rachel asked
Grace blushed a little and looked down
"Just a friend" she mumbled
"A friend? Or a friend?" Quinn asked with a smirk
"She's a friend…for now anyway"
"Oh?" Both women replied with matching raised eyebrows
"What's this mystery girl's name? Do we know her?" Rachel asked
"Her name is Hannah and no you don't know her…she…she kinda asked me out the other day and we're going on a date tomorrow…if that's ok" Grace informed them as her cheeks started to burn
Both women now wore matching smiles, it was kind of creeping Grace out.
"What about Sofia?" Rachel gently asked
Grace sighed
"I don't know Ma…I know I still have feelings for her but…I need to move on and get over her because she's straight and we're going to always be just friends…and I think I'm starting to accept that. Besides Hannah's really cool and she has really pretty eyes…and a pierced tongue" Grace blurted out then blushed as she realised what she said and how could so be taken the wrong way.
Both Quinn and Rachel paled at that piece of information…yep, taken the wrong way.
"I'm gonna go to bed now" Grace quickly got up and headed to her room.
"She gets that from you, you know" Rachel said to Quinn
"What?"
"The innate ability to just blurt out random, embarrassing and far too personal things at any given moment." She explained
"I don't know what you're talking about"
"No? Then explain to me why you felt the need to tell man at the bowling alley that you've had your fingers in tighter holes then the ones on the bowling balls?" Rachel asked
"That…was totally taken out of context" Quinn defended
"That's your excuse for everything" Rachel replied
"Rach I'm not sure I want my baby girl dating someone with a pierced tongue" Quinn tried to change the topic
"I think you should get a pierced tongue" Rachel mumbled
"What?"
"Nothing…Quinn you can't tell Grace she can't date someone because they have their tongue pierced"
"Sure I can, I'm her mother…I like…control her, its in the handbook" She yawned
Rachel just chuckled
"I think you need to go to bed sweetie, you're talking crazy talk"
"Mmmm…carry me?"
"Ha! Not a chance" Rachel laughed as she got up from the couch and held out her hand for her wife to take
"I carried you over the threshold when we got married…I think it's only fair that you carry me up the stairs"
"Do you want to be sleeping on the couch tonight?" Rachel asked
Quinn sighed and took Rachel's offered hand and the two walked up the stairs together
"You're a meanie" Quinn mumbled
