I own nothing...

Valentines Day. Quinn never really liked the holiday. She was all for celebrating love, but the last boy she spent Valentines Day with didn't have a romantic bone in his body. Said boy was now trying to get her back. Quinn had a suspicion that he set up the kissing booth just for a chance to kiss her. Well she wasn't going to. Quinn glanced over at Sam and saw he had just found the note she had put in his locker. She had always been handy with a nail file. His face broke out into a grin. Sam walked past her his arm just brushing her back. Quinn felt a shiver go up her spine from even the slightest contact.

"Why won't you kiss me? Every other girl in school has." Finn asked coming up next to her. "If you didn't feel anything for me anymore then it would be no big deal."

"I don't want to kiss you," Quinn said shutting her locker.

"But the other day..." Finn began but Quinn cut him off.

"There is nothing going on between us," Quinn said, "You gave me some good advice, that was it. I kissed you on the cheek because you were being a good guy. I love Sam, and we do more then kiss on the cheek." Finn remembered the time oh so long ago when Sam told him that Sam and Quinn had slept together. It didn't hurt then, but it hurt now. He and Quinn had never came close to that.

"If you feel nothing then it should be no problem to kiss me," Finn said and so he could get the last word walked away. Quinn sighed and made her way to her next class.

The whole sneaking around thing would get to them eventually. Finn knew that much. As much as Quinn and Sam claimed to love each other, every relationship could only take so much. If Quinn would only kiss him she would see that he was one she was supposed to be with. She would feel what he felt when she kissed him. On the cheek, but there was a spark there.

"Dude what are you doing?" Puck asked after he noticed Finn talking with Quinn.

"Nothing," Finn said trying to sound innocent but failing.

"Are you going after Quinn?" Puck said.

"Maybe," Finn admitted.

"Quinn is the most taken girl at this school, even if they are hiding their relationship." Puck said, "There is no way the two of them are ever splitting up."

"You don't know that," Finn said sharply, "Besides I think she still has feelings for me."

"Really?" Puck asked his curiosity getting to him. It had taken him a long time to get over Quinn too, but he had moved on. Lauren was as bad ass as him, but Rachel was looking pretty fine lately too. "Why do you think that?"

"We were talking and she said to me "Reminds me why I used to like you" and then kissed me on the cheek." Finn told him.

"So Quinn said like not love and kissed you on the cheek not the lips." Puck said trying to clear everything up.

"Yes, she probably doesn't want to do anything more until she and Sam break up," Finn argued. Puck shrugged.

"Do what you want," Puck said, "But they aren't breaking up, and if people have to choose sides, they will pick Sam." Finn watched his best friend walk away with a frown on his face. He was the leader, not Sam. But if people did choose sides Finn realized the list of people loyal to him was getting pretty small. Even Rachel would pick Sam, they were friends. Santana, Brittney, Mercedes, Tina, Mike, all would side with Sam. Kurt was Finn's brother he would have been loyal to him, but he wasn't here anymore. No. This was all hypothetical. There would be no sides. He would win Quinn back, all she would have to do is kiss him.

"Just kiss him," Sam said to Quinn. Since Sam's number was still blocked she was using Santana's phone again.

"What?" Quinn said shocked Sam would suggest it.

"Finn won't give up till you do," Sam said, "You might as well just kiss him so he can move on. Just don't picture me when you do it, you might get too caught up in it." Quinn laughed. She did tend to get carried away when Sam kissed her. She felt like her whole body was on fire and that Quinn could kiss him forever.

"Fine," Quinn said, "I'll kiss him. I just hope he will let the whole thing go and get back together with Rachel or something."

"Me too," Sam said, "I don't really want Rachel to go on another one of her Finn tangents, she hits me when I fall asleep listening." Quinn laughed.

"Did you see the way she was flirting with Puck?" Quinn asked.

"Yeah, when they sang Need You Now?" Sam replied, "Just another thing that will blow up eventually."

"I gotta go," Quinn said, "Santana has gotten 10 texts in the last five minutes."

"Okay," Sam said, "Love you."

"Love you too," Quinn said and hung up the phone.

Quinn walked up to the kiss booth money in hand. Sam didn't want to witness it so he was in the weight room, the place he always went when he had a lot on his mind. Santana came with her instead. She had Trouty Mouth's back.

"Are you going to watch?" Finn asked Santana as soon as it was Quinn's turn.

"Yep," Santana said crossing her arms, "I am here to make sure your tongue stays to yourself." The former couple moved forward and gave each other a quick kiss on the lips.

"There," Quinn said, "Now you know." Quinn and Santana began to walk away when Quinn remembered she had left her purse on the kissing booth table. When she went back to get it she felt Finn grab her wrist.

"Meet me in the auditorium after school," He whispered. After a while Quinn nodded and caught up with Santana. Hopefully this would be chance to explain to Finn once and for all what she felt, and who Quinn loved.

"I'm here," Quinn said later in the auditorium, "Say what you need to say."

"Does Sam know your here?" Finn asked.

"No," Quinn said with a sigh, "I am not going to tell him because he if knew he would beat the crap out of you, and I hate it when Sam gets into fights." Finn didn't like the fact that if he and Sam got in a fight Quinn assumed Sam would win. Even though she was probably right. The guy did spend half his life in the weight room.

"I felt fireworks when you kissed me," Finn said getting straight to the point, "And I think that you do too." Finn had such a hopeful puppy-dog look on his face that Quinn's annoyance went away.

"Finn," Quinn began, "You were my first boyfriend. You will always mean something to me. Still, I am crazy, can't think about anything else, in love with Sam. The pain it causes me to not be able to fully be with him is unbearable sometimes, and I don't need you pursuing me to add to the things going wrong with my life." Finn didn't know what to say. Quinn knew better then to touch him and instead simply said,

"See you in Glee Finn."

"How did it go?" Santana asked when Quinn walked up to her where Santana was waiting to give Quinn a ride home.

"I hated hurting him," Quinn said getting into the car, "But he wasn't going to stop." Santana just nodded and started the car.

Quinn sat next to Santana at Breadsticks. Sam was next to Rachel and Mercedes. They kept glancing at smiling at each other. Finn was sulking in the corner obviously still not happy at the answer Quinn had given him. Silly Love Songs was a great song and The Warblers were awesome. New Directions had some serious competition. Quinn looked at the bracelet Sam had finally been able to give her. It was so pretty. The fact that it was Sharon's grandmothers made it better then any Tiffany's bracelet could ever be. Her neck felt bare though. After her parents told her she couldn't see Sam, Quinn couldn't bring herself to wear something her mother had given her. Santana hooked her arm through hers still facing front. Quinn was grateful to have the friends that she did. She wouldn't be able to survive without them.

"Happy Valentines Day," Sam said to Quinn outside of Breadsticks. Valentines Day was worth the risk of talking to each other openly. "I'm sorry I don't have anything for you." Sam blushed. Money was still tight and he couldn't afford to get her anything nice.

"You love me," Quinn said, "I couldn't ask for more then that." Sam smiled. Quinn was really as close to perfect as one girl could be.

"I do love you," Sam said taking her hand not caring at this moment who saw.

"I love you too," Quinn said. The two let go and walked away from each other. Quinn's eyes were hot, and Sam's hands balled into fists. She looked back and saw Puck and Rachel trying to calm Sam down and it killed Quinn she couldn't comfort him when he was hurting. Santana handed her a tissue.

"Remember what I said about the crying thing," Santana said and Quinn laughed. Happy Valentines Day.
