A/N: Firstly, thank you all for being so patient with me. I will respond to your reviews and comments as soon as I get a chance but right now I just wanted to put up this chapter. I've been so busy and have actually held up on posting chapters because I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to do next. It would depend on if I got time, but would you guys like to see me go straight into the sequel or rather put up a collection of one-shots of the happy couples that will explain some of the things that happen in between five years and five years part two? Hit the reviews and let me know! Also, I'm still looking for baby names if anybody has any ideas."Quinn can I tell you something?" Finn said after they got on the plane. He decided that Quinn should know about Beth being with Rachel before they got to New York. He didn't want her to be so surprised when they got there that she went into shock.
"Anything Finn," she said.
"I haven't been fully honest with you," he admitted. "Beth has been staying with Puck in New York but I didn't tell you that Puck was actually staying with Rachel."
Quinn didn't say anything for a few seconds and Finn thought that she was angry.
"Oh, okay" she said much to Finn's surprise. "I guess I should thank her then when we get there for helping out with Beth."
"I love you so much," Finn said as he smiled at her. Finn wasn't sure if it was the accident or if Quinn had just matured but he realized she grew a lot since high school. She wasn't mad that Beth was with Rachel but old Quinn; well she would have been furious. Finn loved that Quinn was this new person. It made dating her feel like the first time they ever dated and Finn loved the fact that he got to get to know Quinn and fall in love with her all over again.
When they got to Rachel's place, Quinn could see Beth playing with a little boy in the yard.
"That is Ian," Finn said as he saw who Quinn was looking at. "He is Rachel's son. He is four. Beth just loves him."
Quinn didn't say anything as she ran scenarios in her head. Didn't Rachel and Finn date four years ago she thought? As she watched the little boy closely it became harder and harder for her to keep the thoughts from her mind. She decided to just ask Finn. She didn't want any secrets between them this time.
"Is he yours?" she asked.
Finn looked at her stunned. "No, of course not," he said. "He is Brennan's. Brennan is Rachel's ex-husband."
Quinn was satisfied with this answer. She still thought Ian could be Finn's but she knew if he was Rachel would have told him. She would not have let the opportunity to be with him slip away and with his kid, Rachel would have been able to marry Finn and be with him forever.
"Oh okay," Quinn said as she grabbed Finn's hand. Together they walked up to the door and as soon as they reached the steps Beth came running.
"Uncle Finn, Mama!" she screamed as Finn picked her up. He put her down and then she gave Quinn a big hug.
"I missed you so much mommy," she said as she hugged her mother. "I didn't think you were ever going to wake up. I am so glad you are here. I can't wait to tell daddy. He is going to be so happy and you can…"
Suddenly Beth stopped talking. She noticed Finn's hand holding Quinn's and then realized her hopes of her mom and dad getting back together probably weren't going to happen. "I'll just go get daddy and Auntie Rachel," she said as she ran inside. "Follow me."
Quinn and Finn followed Beth inside and as soon as they walked through the door, Puck noticed exactly what Beth did and that was Finn and Quinn's hands interlocked. He pounded his hand into a fist and he couldn't help but be a little jealous. He knew that this could happen and that he and Finn had talked about it happening but it hurt him more than he expected. He shook his head and shook off his feelings about Quinn. Right now he couldn't focus on Finn and Quinn's relationship. All he cared about was that Quinn was awake. He would finally get the chance to talk to her and work out what had kept them apart for five years.
"Quinn," Puck said as he tried to hide some of the relief and happiness from his face.
"Puck," she responded as Finn went back outside to bring Ian in the house. "It's okay; you don't have to say it. I missed you too."
He loved how she knew what was on his mind. He loved how he never needed to say or do anything and that when she looked into his eyes he knew she could see his soul. He loved everything about her but he hated that he did. He knew he couldn't have her. He knew where her heart belonged.
Puck smiled at her and gave her a huge hug. "I am so glad you are awake," he said as he continued to hold her close. "I didn't think, I mean I don't know what I would do, I mean I'm sorry for how I handled Beth and I just, I'm glad you're here."
Quinn knew exactly what Puck wanted to say and even though he couldn't say it, she could tell how he felt.
"I know Puck," she said as she could see the tears starting to form in his eyes. "I know."
He continued to hug her for a few more minutes but immediately pulled away when Finn came back inside. Both of them could feel the tension that still remained between them and although she loved Finn, part of her still loved Puck too.
"Thanks for taking care of Beth for me," Quinn said as Finn came back to her side.
"It's no problem," Puck said as he found himself once again looking at Finn and Quinn's entwined fingers. "I'm just glad I'm back in her life."
Puck walked away disappointed that Quinn was back with Finn. Secretly, he wanted another chance with her but now that she was with Finn he couldn't tell her that. He promised Finn he would never let a girl come in between them again and even though this was the girl he always loved and shared a child with, if Finn was dating her he decided he just had to let them be happy.
"Finn's back," Puck said as he walked into the kitchen to talk to Rachel. "He brought Quinn with him. They are back together."
"Quinn is awake?" Rachel asked. "That is wonderful and it is good that Finn is happy."
Puck could see Rachel's disappointment. "I know you are disappointed," he said.
"I can see that the feeling is mutual," Rachel added.
"Rach, I don't want to be a jerk or anything," Puck said, "but I thought that Quinn and I could have another chance. We have a daughter together and I thought that might count for something and maybe if you told Finn about Ian…"
"Absolutely not," Rachel said cutting off Puck. "It would be unfair for me to tell him only because I want him back. He is with Quinn now and well although I don't like it, we both have to accept it. I am not going to tell him the truth just to get him back."
"You know it would work though," Puck said smugly.
"Just be happy for them Noah and be happy that your daughter has her mother back," Rachel said before she went into the living room to greet Quinn.
