Quinn took the week after her miscarriage off from school. The hospital had called her parents since she is still a minor and her mother had showed up. She told Quinn that she'd kicked Quinn's father out after finding out about his affair. Quinn and her mother made up and her mother supported her taking her home to recoup. Quinn immediately locked herself in her bedroom not letting anyone talk to her or see her, especially Rachel. She said seeing Rachel still pregnant hurt too much. She couldn't understand why Rachel's baby was able to withstand all the same things her baby couldn't.

Puck had taken the miscarriage hard too, blaming himself for causing Quinn stress. Rachel's heart broke for each of them wishing she could do something for them. Rachel sat in her room after Quinn had once again refused her call and began thinking of Puck. He had been so great with her and the baby even though he was lying to her. She remembered back to when they had told her dads about the pregnancy.

*FLASHBACK*

"Why did you tell them the truth?" Puck questioned as soon as they were alone.

Rachel shrugged, "They are my dads and they deserve the whole truth. Besides its better they see you as a good guy helping me out rather than an evil guy who impregnated their daughter"

Puck nodded in agreement, "Have I told you lately how grateful I am that you trust me enough to start a family with me? I've always felt like a Lima loser with no goal or future ahead of me. But now I actually feel like I mean something. That I have a future and something worthwhile in my life"

Rachel felt the tears prick her eyes as she grabbed his hand, "Well I am so grateful that you would do so much for me and my baby. But Noah I need to be honest with you. There is a good chance I may give this baby up for adoption. I hope you will be okay with that"

Puck nodded, "Of course, it's your baby and your decision. I will do whatever you want. I'm not going to lie. I want you to keep it, but only if you want to"

Rachel smiled and placed a soft kiss to his lips.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

It was then she realized she needed to see him. Not bothering to call she jumped in her car and drove to his house; she'd only been there twice but knew his mom loved her and wouldn't mind. She took a deep shaky breath before she knocked confidently on his door. His mom answered happily.

"Rachel dear how lovely to see you! Here to see Noah?"

Rachel nodded, "Oh good, he'll be so glad to see you. He has been so depressed since that Quinn girl miscarried. I don't see why though, I think everything happens for a reason and it's a blessing in disguise"

Rachel was mortified at her words but hid it as she excused herself to his bedroom. She knocked timidly and Puck opened cautiously, "What do you want Berry?"

Rachel gave him a sympathetic smile, "To help you. I doubt you have talked to anyone since you and Finn are still on rocky ground, your mother seems to not understand, and Quinn has locked herself away from everyone"

Puck tired to keep his rough exterior up, "Why would I want to talk to you when you are so happy and your baby is healthy? Better yet why would you want to talk to me? I'm the mean evil Puckmeister who kept you and Finn apart"

Rachel sighed, "I can forgive Noah. I know why you did what you did. I may not love what you did, but I can forgive it. I forgave Quinn"

Puck felt his wall crumble as he moved to his bed, trying to put distance between them. Rachel followed him and placed her hand on his arm, "I remember how great you were with me and my baby. I want to support you and help you like you did with me. You were so excited for her and she wasn't even yours. I can't imagine how much loss you must be feeling right now."

Puck grabbed her and crushed her to him as he began sobbing, "Why did she have to die? Was it because of me? Is God punishing me? I had changed, I wasn't beating people up, I wasn't making fun of anyone, I wasn't sleeping around on you or Quinn… I had changed" Rachel shed her own tears as she rocked him.

"It's not your fault; God is not punishing you or Quinn. These things happen and there's nothing we can do to stop or change it"

Rachel shifted so she was leaning against his head board as Puck wrapped his arms around her waist and lay on her stomach crying. Rachel gently stoked his head as he cried. They stayed like that for hours until they fell asleep.

Meanwhile…

Finn had arrived at the Fabray's to try and see Quinn since no one else had succeeded and it was tearing Rachel apart. Mrs. Fabray answered sadly, "Hello Finn, how are you sweetie?"

Finn smiled, "Fine, I was hoping to talk to Quinn"

Mrs. Fabray sighed, "You can try"

Finn entered the huge house and headed for Quinn's room knocking lightly, "Quinn its Finn, I know you don't want to see anyone but you need to talk to someone. Please open up"

He waited for what seemed like hours until the lock on her door clicked and Quinn appeared with puffy eyes and venom in her voice, "What do you want? To rub it in my face how much of a better mother Rachel is than me? How happy you are she is your baby's mother so you wouldn't have a dead daughter right now?"

Finn was taken aback, "What? No! I would never say that! I'm worried about you, all of us are, especially Puck and Rachel. It's not healthy to isolate yourself; you should lean on us like you did when you were pregnant. We helped you then and we can help you now"

Quinn's voice wavered as she replied "I can't look at her right now it hurts too much"

Finn nodded, "I can understand that, but what about Puck? You two need each other more than ever. No one else knows what it feels like to go through this"

Quinn nodded her hard eyes softening up as she thought of her daughter's father and how great he had been to her throughout the pregnancy and even in the hospital , "I guess you have point… he wanted to keep her. He even sang to me about it… Do you think he's mad at me?"

Finn shook his head, "No way, he just wants to be close with you"

Quinn sighed, "Do you think you can take me over there?"

Finn nodded, "Of course"

When they arrived Puck's mom was gone, luckily Quinn knew where the spare key was hidden, "Puck!" She waited for an answer not getting one.

"Maybe he's sleeping" Finn suggested. Quinn agreed and headed upstairs. Quinn pushed his door open and gasped at the sight of Rachel and Puck wrapped around one another, Puck's head rising and falling on Rachel's stomach.

"What the hell?" Finn shouted when he saw the same scene. Puck and Rachel startled awake as they saw Finn and Quinn's hurt expressions in the door way.

"It's not what it looks like" Puck started as Finn jumped in.

"Oh really? Cause it looked to me like you're trying to move back to Rachel so you can play daddy to my kid again!"

Before Puck could answer Finn threw a punch knocking him to the ground as Quinn and Rachel looked on in horror. They tried to break the boys apart but they got out of control and Rachel got shoved into a dresser falling to the ground as Quinn screamed. "RACHEL!"
