Quinn couldn't remember the last time she was so angry. Connor had gone as far as calling his Dad which surprised her. She wasn't arrested but she was suspended from the hospital until further notice. She didn't know why she was so surprised that he had come after her career.
"Can't Connor's Dad talk to the board?" April asked as Quinn knocked back another shot of tequila.
"Apparently me not getting arrested was already a huge effort on his part" She replied shaking her head "Biff's family donated a lot of money to the hospital, they want to keep all sides happy so that's why It's suspension until further notice instead of straight up fired"
"So, you should be back soon?" Ethan asked
"Doubtful" She replied calling Herrmann over to order another round.
"Doubtful why?" April asked exchanging a worried look with Ethan as Quinn picked up her third tequila.
"Because my Step-Fathers number one priority is money and Biff had plenty. He won't want to lose a contact like that other me" She replied.
"But your family" April said shaking her head.
"By marriage" She sighed "And even then, I'm not sure it would make a difference"
She had only been suspended for a few days, but she already felt like she was losing it. She had rearranged her entire apartment at least three times already. Her Mom had called her to say they were going to do whatever they could to smooth it over, but she didn't believe her. Quinn knew how her mother felt about her career choice. All Judy ever wanted was for her daughter the prom queen to marry well and become a trophy wife.
She was close to banning Connor from her apartment because he kept stopping by to check up on her like she was sick or something.
She groaned as she saw him coming through the door at Molly's. He made a beeline to the bar and took the empty seat next to her.
"I'm fine thanks for asking, how are you?" She asked before he could say a word.
If she had to be questioned about how she was feeling one more time, then she would really lose it and become loopy Quinn.
"How many has she had?" He asked April.
"A few" April replied biting her lip.
Quinn rolled her eyes and picked up her purse. She had witnessed Connor go off the rail's multiple times over the years. If he was going to act like a few shots and being angry was anywhere near that level, then she didn't want to stick around and listen to it. She would end up saying something she'd regret.
"Quinn don't go" He sighed "I'm just worried about you"
"I'm angry, ok" She sighed "I just want to get out of the house, I'm pretty sure that's normal and you have no right to judge me"
"You're right I'm sorry" He sighed "I'm angry too, I'm working on getting you back in"
Quinn really wanted to believe that. Right now, she just felt hurt and lost.
"I spoke to Shelby" He told her "She's bringing Beth to visit"
"She's what?" Quinn asked voice cracking slightly "Seriously?"
"They'll be here on Friday night" He replied with a smile pulling her into a hug.
Beth was about to turn 11, Quinn hadn't been to see her since her last birthday. It had been a long time and it broke her heart.
"Thank you" She told him.
Connor might not be related by blood, but he really was her family. He always looked out for her.
