AN: So thanks to everyone who leaves reviews and alerts. Love you lots. Here's the new chapter and I hope you all enjoy.
Disclaimer: Glee's not mine, cause if it were Finchel would've been over a LONG time ago, and Brittana and Faberry would rein.
"What do you guys have planned for San's birthday tomorrow?" Quinn asks as we wait in the waiting room of the Dr.'s office for her to be called back. I can tell she's nervous, if the death grip she has on my hand is any indication.
"Nothing really. We're just having a family dinner at Breadstix. I know Britt's invited, so I think you should come as well," I tell her as I stroke the back of her hand with my thumb.
"I wasn't invited," she whispers out sadly and I silently berate myself for not inviting her earlier. I'm an idiot.
"You were. Tiny left it up to me to invite you, but with everything that's been going on I completely forgot. I'm sorry," I say as I wrap her in my arms. I hate when she's sad.
"Are you just trying to make me feel better?" she asks suspiciously.
"No, I promise I'm not. If you want you can text San and see," I tell her quickly because she looks like she's fixing to start crying.
"I will," she tells me with a sniffle and my heartbreaks at hearing it. A few seconds later she has a reply from San and she's laughing. That's good. I guess. You never really know when it comes to San.
"Whacha laughin at bonita?" I ask hesitantly. Instead of answering me she hands me her phone.
To San: Am I invited to your dinner tomorrow night?
From San: Of course you are. Didn't my idiot of a brother tell you? If not then I can go all Lima Heights on him for you.
"Well that's pleasant," I mutter dryly as I hand her the phone back.
"Aww...don't worry baby. I wouldn't let her hurt you," Quinn coos before giving me a quick kiss. I smile happily now that she's not upset anymore and watch as she continues to text Santana.
"Quinn Fabray?" a nurse calls from the doorway leading back to the rooms. Quinn and I stand and I wrap my arm around her waist, mainly for comfort but also cause she's a little shaky.
"It's gonna be ok sweetie. Just remember that I'm not going anywhere, no matter what. Ok?" I whisper in her ear to try and calm her. She gives me a thankful smile and a quick peck before we stop in front of a scale.
"Ok Quinn if you can just hop on here really quickly," the nurse tells her. She hands me her purse and then steps on the scale. Once she sees the weight on the scale she pouts, and as soon as she steps off of it I kiss the pout away. The nurse leads us to a room and goes about doing all of the necessary things for the Dr. "The Dr. will be with you shortly," the nurse tells us before leaving the room.
We sit in silence until the Dr. comes in, and once they do I scowl. It's a dude, and he's actually really good looking. Quinn sees the look on my face and gives me an amused smirk before turning to the Dr.
"Hello Quinn," the Dr. says as he sits on his little rolling stool and rolls in front of her on the bed.
"Hey Dr. Adams," Quinn greets with a bright smile and my scowl deepens.
"And who's this?" Dr. Adams asks as he turns to me and holds out his hand.
"Rayden Berry. Quinn's boyfriend and the father," I tell him as I shake his hand, hard. I can see the amusement in his eyes as he turns back to Quinn, and I scowl again.
"Nice to meet you Rayden. Now Quinn, are you sure you're pregnant or do we need to do a test?"
"Well I took around 10 home tests and they were all positive. I've also been experiencing morning sickness, mood swings, cravings, and having to pee constantly."
"Hmm...alright well that sounds pretty accurate, but I still need a blood sample to make sure that the baby's growing right. Then after that we'll come back here and I'll do a sonogram. I have to warn you though that it's not the belly one," Dr. Adams says and Quinn grimaces.
I go with Quinn as she gets her blood drawn, but I make sure to never look at the needle, cause I hate them with a passion. Afterwards we go back to the room and Quinn changes into a hospital gown to make the sonogram easier. Dr. Adams does an exam first to make sure everything's going ok, which I fume silently about, before rolling over to a machine and rolling it back towards us.
"Alright Quinn I'm sorry but this isn't going to be very pleasant," the Dr. says as he lubes up a wand thing. I grimace along with Quinn this time and hold in a pained gasp as the Dr. inserts it. Wow that looks disturbing. After a few moments of him staring at the screen he turns to us and points. "That there is your baby," he says and I follow his finger to see a little blob.
It doesn't really look like a baby, but I can see a definite head. Dr. Adams keeps talking and explaining, but I tune him out and just stare. There's an overwhelming amount of emotions swirling within me at the moment. There's fear, excitement, worry, happiness, and a whole bunch of unnameable ones, but the most noticeable and overwhelming is love. Love for this little bean that's growing inside of Quinn, and love for Quinn who's carrying my child. Who knew I would ever experience feelings like this before? Not me, that's for damn sure.
"Rayden are you ok son?" Daddy asks as I walk into the house in a daze. After the appointment I took Quinn to dinner and then dropped her off at home. We decided that when we tell her family that I'm going to be there to make sure nothing happens with her father, and that she wants to be around when I tell my family as well.
"Huh? Oh yeah dad I'm fine," I say as I walk into the kitchen and grab a water. I give him and Papi a quick hug before heading upstairs to turn in for the night.
"So how'd the appointment go yesterday?" Santana asks as I walk out of my closet dressed in gray skinny jeans, a blue long-sleeved v-neck, my combat boots, and my leather jacket. I change my tongue ring to blue, along with my gauges, and then go and lay next to her on my bed.
"It was amazing. I mean I never knew I could love something so much with just one look," I say, staring at my ceiling. "I mean I almost cried just seeing the ultrasound, I don't know what's going to happen when we hear the heartbeat next week."
"You're already going back in a week? Is everything ok?" she questions worriedly.
"No, yeah everything's fine. It's just that since we went in at 7 weeks, we have to go back next week for the 8 week check-up. Then after that we'll start going once a month until it's closer to her due date," I explain quickly to reassure her.
"So when are you telling Mami and your dads?" she asks and I heave out a sigh.
"Soon, but not until your birthday and Halloween are over. Speaking of your birthday, happy birthday," I tell her, finally looking away from my ceiling and towards her.
"Thank you. So now that I'm finally sixteen, are you going to let me drive your truck?" she questions with a smirk. I just laugh as I get up from the bed and head downstairs. That ridiculous question doesn't even warrant an answer.
"Hey baby," I say as I wrap my arms around Quinn from behind. She relaxes back into my embrace, but for some reason I feel as if something's wrong. "Q is everything ok?" she just shakes her head before turning in my arms and burying her head in my neck.
She begins sobbing and I freak out, so I wrap my arms tighter around her and walk her into an empty classroom. I sit down in the teacher's chair and pull her into my lap and just hold her for a few minutes. Finally she calms down and I gently lift her face up and lock our eyes.
"What's wrong?" I ask, a thousand and two different emotions rushing through me.
"Finn..." she mutters. Rage joins the other emotions at the mention of his name, and what she says next has me out of my seat and rushing off to find the neanderthal. "Ray! Rayden wait! Stop!" I hear Quinn yell down the hall but I don't listen.
I spot Finn talking to a bunch of guys on the football team, and as soon as I reach them I lunge for him. I almost reach him, but before I do I'm tackled away from him and held back.
"You son of bitch! Wait until I get a hold of you! I swear Hudson you're going to wish you were never born!" I scream as I fight whoever's holding me, trying to get loose. The look on Finn's face is priceless. He's scared shitless and it looks like he's fixing to piss himself.
"Ok Berry, you just keep believing that," he sneers to save face with the guys.
"If you ever come near Quinn again I will bury you," I threaten in a calmer tone of voice. I've stopped struggling but I'm in no way calm. If the people holding me let me go now I'd beat the living hell out of him. They seem to know that since their grips never loosen.
"Don't know what you're talking about Berry," Finn tries to say in a calm voice, but I can see the fear in his eyes.
"I'm know you're a fucking idiot Hudson, but you're also too stupid to play stupid," I growl.
"Oh I'm the stupid one huh? At least I'm not the one dating a whore. That bastard of a child's probably not even yours," he tells me with an evil smirk, that quickly becomes a scream of fear and pain as I punch him in his nose. The people who were restraining me, who I now realize was Noah and Santana, let me loose as soon as the words were out of his mouth.
I rear back and throw another punch to his jaw before kicking him in the ribs. Once he doubles over in pain I bring my knee into his face, not caring where it hit, and then jump on top of him as he falls to the ground. I'm surprised I haven't been stopped yet but I'm happy I haven't.
"Hey! Hey cut it out!" I hear Mr. Shue yelling from down the hall. I land one more punch to his eye before standing and turning to face the teacher. As soon as I turn around I feel a splitting pain in my head and then everything goes black.
"Oww..." I groan out as I begin to wake up. I try and open my eyes, only to immediately shut them again because of the piercing light stabbing my corneas. I blink quickly a few times to get my eyes adjusted to the light before managing to open them and keep them open. I look around the room I'm in, which looks to be the nurse's office.
"Hey, you're awake," I hear Quinn's voice say from my right. I turn my head and grin when I see her standing in the doorway.
"Hi," I say, frowning slightly as what happened comes back to me. "What happened after I got off of Finn?"
"Johanson helped him off the ground, and as soon as he was standing he grabbed some kid's textbook and hit you across the back of the head with it. He ended up passing out right after you," she tells me, pointing to a curtain on my left. When I look over I recognize Finn's long ass legs and shoes hanging motionless from the bed. Serves the bastard right.
"I can't believe he did that. I mean a textbook? Seriously? And suckerpunching me? He's such a pussy," I say as Quinn comes and sits on the edge of my bed.
"You scared the living hell out of me," she growls out, finally letting the anger I saw storming in her eyes out. She punches me multiple times in my shoulder and I let her.
"I'm sorry bonita, it's just...nobody gets to hurt you in anyway and get away with it," I tell her with an apologetic smile.
"Yeah well I'm still pissed at you, cause he could've really hurt you. I mean he's a fucking giant and you're only like two inches taller then me," she tells me with a glare.
"Hey! Height doesn't matter it's about your fighting skill, and I have plenty of that," I pout. She kisses my pout away, and once she pulls away I whine at the loss of contact.
"You dads and mom are talking to Figgins right now," she tells me and I bury my head in her chest.
"I'm so fucked," I whine out. She strokes my hair gently with a chuckle, and I'm about to say more but Noah and Santana walk into the room.
"Mami and your dads are pissed," she informs me with a smirk. I just pout and bury my head further into Quinn's chest.
"I figured they would be," I say back as I turn my head to face her. "Do you know how bad it is?"
"Um...I'd say about a five at you and a ten at Hudson, but they don't know anything about Jr., so..." she trails off. Noah looks confused at the word Jr. and looks between the three of us for a few seconds. He takes in the way I'm resting my hand protectively on Quinn's stomach, stroking it gently, and suddenly his face lights up.
"No way!" he exclaims, giddiness and disbelief in his tone and on his face.
"Yup," I tell him with a nod and popping the p.
"I was wondering what the fuck Finn was talking about when he said what he did. Damn dude that's fucked up."
"I know, which is why I fucked him up. You don't even know what he did earlier though. I swear I wanted, and still want, to kill his dumbass," I growl out.
"Mami sent us in here to bring you out if you were awake," Santana tells me with a smirk. I frown, tighten my grip on Quinn, and shake my head no.
"Stop being a pussy Ray," Santana tells me and I glare at her. She'd be acting the same way if it was her in my position. Quinn rolls her eyes at the both of us and stands up, causing me to pout again.
I stand up slowly, and Santana has to steady me as the room spins slightly. "I'm sorry about this interfering with your birthday Tiny," I say as she helps me walk into the hallway and towards the principals office.
"It's ok. I mean I got a good show, that's not over yet," she tells me with a smirk and I scowl.
Once we reach the principals office we make our was inside and Santana helps me sit down next to Mami. I shrink away at her gaze, but relax when Quinn plops herself in my lap.
"Mr. Berry I was just discussing your punishment with your parents, along with Finn's," Mr. Figgins tells me in a bored tone of voice.
"Look I'm not sorry that I did what I did," I tell them with a shrug, and Finn's mom, along with my parents, glare at me. "Do you even know why I did what I did?" I ask in anger and frustration.
"We were told that Finn called Quinn a horrible name and then you attacked him," Mrs. Hummel says angrily. I let out a humorless laugh before looking towards Noah and Santana.
"Thanks for not telling them," I say and receive nods in return. "Look Finn found out something that Quinn doesn't want people to know about her yet, and he used it to threaten her. He told her that if she didn't break up with me and get back with him, where she belongs, that he was going to go to her parents and then spread it around the entire school," I tell them with a growl at the end. Just repeating it makes me want to beat him all over again. "Then he started saying horrible things about Quinn and I couldn't take it anymore."
"What did he have on Quinn?" Mami asks in anger and curiosity. Quinn and I exchange a look before I look over to my parents with a sigh.
"I'd rather not say here, but we will tell you as soon as we get home," I tell them with a small smile.
"Well this changes things slightly, because if Finn was trying to blackmail Quinn here then we can turn him into the police," Daddy says, looking pointedly at Carol. I'm guessing she was talking about pressing charges against me.
"How about we leave the police out of this matter period?" Burt says. He gets a reluctant nod from Carol and the rest of the adults and then Figgins speaks again.
"I'm suspending you for a week Mr. Berry, and Mr. Hudson for three days," he says in his classic bored tone. Once everyone agrees with him we all leave his office and head to the parking lot.
"Santana mija we'll see you after school," Mami tells her while looking pointedly back at the school. San tries to pout but Mami just shakes her head and Santana heads back into the school, grumbling the entire way.
"Just in case I don't make it out of this alive, I love you and baby," I say dramatically to Quinn as we head over to my house.
"I love you too, as does our child," she tells me with a nervous smile.
Once I pull into my driveway I take a deep breath before turning the truck off and facing Quinn. I kiss her deeply for a few moments and take another deep breath once it's over. "Lets do this."
Hopefully this chapter was up to par. I hope you liked it, thanks for reading, and PLEASE REVIEW! = )
