Y'all have NO idea how hard it was waiting until now to post this. I wanted to do it last week, and last weekend and yesterday! But it needed to wait until now. I hope it was worth the wait, let me know your thoughts, suggestions and of course compliments are always welcome! Happy Valentine's Day -or- Single's Awareness Day, however you see it! :) enjoy!
-Puck-
"mine?" I point to myself. My eyes searching her tear-stained face for some kind of sign. Her cheeks are flushed and her chin is quivering.
She's silent for what feels like forever.
She opens her mouth to speak but a sob gets caught in her throat. That's when I see movement over her shoulder.
A mop of blonde hair sits up on the bed.
I look at her, accusingly and her eyes widen in fear. "No, Puck, no, I'm not, I mean, he's not, I was just telling him about the pregnancy."
"Why did he find out before me?" my head is throbbing, if she wasn't standing right in my way, my fist would be all over that guppy mouth like white on rice.
"Because, Puck, he's not the father, you are."
"I'm, gonna go." Sam stammers. He slips around me, easily considering I'm leaning against the doorframe to keep myself from falling to the damn floor, and sprints down the hall. Why did he look so afraid of me? And wasn't it obvious that he wasn't the father?... Right?... RIGHT?
"Quinn..." I start, she looks at me, her body still shaking and I'm anticipating waterworks at any moment. "Why would you think Sam was the father?" I say, calmly, though I already know the answer. I just need to hear her say it. After all the insecurities and SHE broke up with ME because she thought I was going to cheat, she's the one who cheated on me once already and then hooked up with Sam while he had a girlfriend.
I slam my hand onto the doorframe, she jumps. "say it."
She just bursts into tears, "I'm so sorry." her knees shake and then give way as she slumps to the floor and leans her forehead against the door.
I sigh, she doesn't need this. What's done is done. I join her on the floor and I'm about to pull her into my arms when I'm suddenly face to babies with Berry's belly.
"Quinn?"
There are two too many pregnant women here.
-Quinn-
"what am I gonna do?" I sob into my pillow. Puck left when Rachel came storming in, insisting on some baby mama bonding. She waddled over to my bed, protectively holding her ever growing tummy, god I'm going to get SO BIG!
"Shhh." Rachel was comforting me, rubbing small circles on my back, something that always calms me down. Something that Puck always used to do.
The door bust open and Santana stormed in. "Why the FUCK am I the last to know about your bun in the oven!"
"Santana, I'm sorry, there's just been so much I've had to think about and I wanted the father to know before it got around school. I didn't want everyone buzzing before I had a chance to tell the him."
"Well, princess, your plan failed. I hope you told him in time, because the whole campus knows. Loud mouth Diva McGee made sure of that."
"YOU TOLD?" I turn to Rachel, shocked, betrayed!
"I would NEVER!" Rachel defends.
Santana hurries over to me and grabs my shoulders, "Chill out mama bear! Not Rachel, Mercedes! She's super pissed about your rendezvous with guppy mouth that she blabbed in the cafeteria." She gives me a smirk, "Nice going by the way, he's pretty cute for a complete raving nerd."
I roll my eyes. "Poor Mercedes, nothing says happy valentine's day like that kind of news,"
-Sam-
I dodged yet another pillow and tried to get ahold of her wrists, "Mercedes listen to me! It was a mistake, we'd just gotten into a fight and she was still upset about Puck. I know that didn't give me the right to do what I did but you need to know that I'm sorry!"
"That's not enough Evans! Get it through your white & nerdy mop of bieber hair! WE ARE FINISHED! DONE! OVER! Got it?" She screeched at me and shoved me out into the hallway. "Have fun with the pregnant pair!"
"But Mercedes, I'm not the f-" The door slams in my face before I can finish. Happy Valentine's Day.
-Rachel-
I make my way back to Quinn's immediately after english lit. The news of her pregnancy spread faster than the news of mine and she's still freaking out, she never misses English Lit. Before I can knock I hear voices.
"Everyone knows, what if my parents hear?" Her voice quivers with tears.
"Shhh, your parents can't hurt you, you hear me? I'm here and everything is going to be fine," His voice is low and soothing. It's his Quinn voice, he only uses it when he thinks no one can hear him.
"I love you, you know?" He adds softly.
There's movement and I think she's crying again. "I love you too." She manages. Well thank god. I've been waiting for her to admit it out loud for weeks.
I love Sam, right to death. But I'm really kind of happy that the baby is Noah's. Sam's not ready to grow up all the way yet, but I can tell Noah has just been waiting for the right excuse to start acting like an adult.
My hip vibrates and pull my phone out. Finn.
hey, meet me back at my dorm. Its time for ur surprise - Finn
I smile. He's been secretive all week. I can only imagine what he's got planned.
-Puck-
I shoved my hands into the pockets of my jeans and stood outside Sam's door. I could hear him watching that avatar movie from out here. It's turned up loud, which means he's in a terrible mood. Must've broken the news to that girl of his.
I knock loudly on the door, "SAM!"
I hear the sound of cans falling onto the floor and footsteps making there way to the door. He opens it up and immediately cringes.
"Don't kill me," He says, tiredly.
I chuckle, "I'm not here to destroy you, even though I have thought about it. I've chosen to overlook what happened, after some serious convincing from Finn and Berry, I'm just here to reinstate our friendship." I stick my hand out, "You still my boy?"
He slowly nods, "Of course man, and congratulations by the way. I'm glad it's you."
I shake his hand and smile a little, "Thanks man, me too,"
-Finn-
I'm the best boyfriend in the world. I swing Rachel around in my arms and kiss her forehead, "Happy Valentine's Day." I whisper.
She sighs and tightens her grip around my neck.
I wriggle lose and walk over to my dresser, picking up a black scarf and carry it over to her.
"What's that for?" She wrinkles her nose at it, out of confusion.
I just smile and tie it over her eyes, "You can't take it off until we're there okay?"
"Until we're where?"
"The top secret surprise location!" She giggles at my enthusiasm and lets me lead her out of the room and out to my truck.
She keeps bouncing up and down on the seat, blindly. The way she does when she's anxious. "Please Finn, just tell me!"
"No! I've kept it a secret this long and I'm not going to ruin it now! We're almost there!" I pull up to the brick building and turn the truck off.
"Come on Finn!" She whines. I just smile at her, though she can't see me, and take her hand.
I lead her into the building and into the elevator, and push the button for floor 4.
"Where the heck are we going!" She complains exasperated.
"It'll be worth it, just be patient." The elevator doors open and I lead her carefully to the right door and untie her blindfold.
-Rachel-
I'm staring at a white door with a gold 208 numbering it. Finn smiles knowingly at me while my mind swims with possibilities.
"Is this?" I point at the door, unable to speak my mind.
Finn puts a key in the door and swings it open. Revealing a spacious apartment, empty, except for a blue blanket laid out in the middle of the floor surrounded by various candles and adorn with a picnic basket.
"Oh Finn!" I clasp a hand over my mouth and bask in the romanticism of the gesture.
He leans close to my ear and whispers, "Welcome home."
"Oh my god, it's perfect." I sigh.
He takes my hand and we walk over to the blanket and sit down.
"I put the payment down a couple weeks ago, It's got two bedrooms and one of those tiny deck things over there," He points to a sliding door in what will be the living room that opens to a cute little balcony. The apartment is shaped like a square, the two bedrooms being the two top corners and the open kitchen/living room being the bottom half. The bedrooms are separated by a good sized bathroom. With furniture and details and lots of help from Kurt, it will be perfect.
My throat is dry and I feel like it's all a dream. "This is perfect, Finn, you're perfect," I lean over the basket and kiss him softly. He cups my cheek and deepens the kiss, tracing my bottom lip with his tongue until I meet it with mine.
He whispers I love you against my lips and I curl up next to his chest.
He moves his hand from my cheek to my stomach, tracing his words with his finger.
Happy Valentine's Day to us. All four of us.
