Part 26

Rachel was awoken by a gentle shake.

"Rachel, wake up, wake up."

She opened her eyes to see Kurt.

"We're going to 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'."

Rachel was still groggy, "What about Quinn?" Rachel asked while looking over at Quinn who was still sleeping. All the other girls were still sleeping too, except for Brittany and Santana who had mysteriously disappeared.

"I've told her. She knew about this."

But Rachel wasn't paying attention to what Kurt was saying. She was too caught up with Quinn's sleeping state.

"Look at her, she's so cute and she looks so innocent, isn't she?" Rachel fawned over Quinn and Kurt grimaced.

"Yeah, yeah, she's cute. Now, can you go take a shower?"

Rachel got off the bed to take her phone and took a picture of a sleeping Quinn.

"Erm … I'm not sure she would like that," Kurt said.

"Well, she didn't have to know then, isn't it?"

After that, Rachel finally took a shower and got ready for her morning outing with Kurt.

Quinn was reading a book on the bed. No one else was in the room, everyone else was doing their own exploration of the city, but she decided to stay there. She had overspent the night before anyway. The door opened, Santana and Brittany came over and took a seat on both of her sides.

"Well Q, now that you have joined the Sapphic Society, I think it's just about right that –"

Quinn was startled, "I'm flattered Santana but I won't have a threesome with you and Brittany."

"What?" Santana looked shocked and Brittany looked amused, "That's not … hmm … Q, what's going on in that head of yours? Is that all you've been thinking about nowadays?"

"No!" Quinn answered defensively.

"How far have you and Berry gone anyway?" Santana asked teasingly.

"It's none of your business."

Santana rolled her eyes, "Fine, whatever. Anyway, what I was about to suggest is a makeover. Now that you have finally embraced who you really are, I think you need a new look. Come on, you've had this hair ever since I've known you."

Quinn still looked unconvinced.

"Oh relax, it's just a haircut. It will grow back."

Brittany on the other side smiled and nodded her head.

Rachel and Kurt were late for the Glee Club practice. Mr Schue had booked the conference room for a few hours for their last practice session before the competition the next day. When they walked into the room, the practice session hadn't started yet. Mr Schue wasn't even there. Everyone was just chatting with each other. Rachel looked around for Quinn but she couldn't spot her. She noticed there were two blondes, one with long hair and the other with shorter hair. The long haired one was talking to Santana and the other one was talking to Mercedes. She walked over to Mercedes. Mercedes saw her, "Hi Rachel. How was the outing?"

The other blonde turned around to look at her. It was Quinn, with her new look. Rachel must have looked like a fish gulping out of water. Quinn smiled at her amusedly. She almost forgot that Mercedes had asked a question.

"Oh, the outing, yeah, it was great," she answered without looking at Mercedes.

"Oookay, I better leave you two alone," and Mercedes walked away. It looked like they had forgotten her presence.

"Your hair," Rachel didn't know what else to say.

Quinn suddenly became unsure, "Do you like it?"

"I love it," Rachel said and she touched the fringe. "It really looks good on you. I think you're pretty in any type of hair anyway." She smiled. Suddenly she stopped and looked around. "Hey, everyone's here."

"Yeah," Quinn wondered what Rachel had in mind.

"That means the room is empty," she gave Quinn that mischievous look that Quinn had learned by now meant only one thing.

Rachel walked away, and after a few steps, she looked back at Quinn as an indication to follow her. No one noticed that they had somehow left the room and made their way back to the girls' room.

Once inside, Rachel walked to the middle bed and sat down.

"Well Rachel Berry, what do you have in mind?" Quinn said playfully. She was still standing a distance away.

"I haven't reached my kisses quota for the day yet," she almost whined.

"What's the quota?"

"Hmm … I haven't set a number yet, but considering that at the moment the number of kisses is zero, it certainly hasn't been met."

Quinn chuckled, "Has anyone ever told you that you're demanding?"

Rachel huffed, "Are you just going to stand there or are you ever going to come here?"

Quinn smirked but she walked towards Rachel anyway. Once she was standing in front of Rachel, she pushed Rachel gently to lie down on the bed while kissing her the whole time. Together they moved bit by bit to the middle of the bed, all the while not breaking the kiss.

In the meantime, Mr Schue walked into the conference room and looked around, "Where's Rachel and Quinn?"

All of them looked around too and when they couldn't see Rachel and Quinn, they all had a knowing smirk, except for Finn who was fuming inside. It brought back the memory from last night. Unlike some guys who got turned on with the image of two girls kissing, it was the opposite for him.

"Let me look for them Mr Schue," Santana volunteered. She knew where to look, she had the same idea too but Brittany was too preoccupied before.

Santana quietly opened and closed the door. She tiptoed into the room. She could hear the sound of kissing and moaning and heavy breathing. She wondered if she would be treated to a slight case of nudity and she smiled, but then the thought of seeing them naked was horrifying and she frowned. Now she really hoped that they were still fully clothed.

She inched closer until she could see them on the bed. Quinn was on top of Rachel. She was kissing Rachel's neck and kissing her way down to Rachel's chest, only to the part that wasn't covered by her dress. Then she moved back up to kiss her neck right to her ear. Rachel's fingers were scrunching Quinn's hair. Santana wanted to laugh; Rachel must have really liked the new hair style. Quinn should thank her later. Quinn was sucking Rachel's earlobe and Rachel was loudly moaning Quinn's name. Santana arched her eyebrows; she sometimes wondered if Rachel's a screamer and this proved it. Then she saw Quinn went back to kissing Rachel's lips. Rachel quickly removed Quinn's cardigan without breaking the kiss. She almost threw it over to Santana's direction. Then her hands were about to lift Quinn's top and Santana thought that she should stop them now.

"Woah! For two virgins, well, a virgin and a lesbian virgin, you two sure looked pretty good at it."

Rachel and Quinn had both sat up. "What the hell are you doing here?" Quinn asked angrily.

"Mr Schue wanted to do a run through. You two better get your ass down there pronto." Santana turned to leave, but not before saying, "Oh Quinn, maybe I do want that threesome after all," and she walked out of the room.

Rachel looked at Quinn disbelievingly.

"What? No. I don't ever want to do a threesome, with anyone."

"Okay, good, because I don't like to share."

"I don't like to share either," Quinn said quietly.

Rachel looked at her dejectedly, "I think the universe is trying to tell us something."

Quinn nodded, "I thought we both agreed that we're not ready for this, but things sure got pretty intense quickly, especially just now."

"So we should thank Santana for stopping us?"

"Urgh, no. Who knows how long she had been standing there watching us?"

Quinn adjusted her top and Rachel picked up the cardigan that she had thrown. Quinn also stood up and Rachel helped put the cardigan back on her. Their closeness brought out the intense heat again, so Rachel quickly moved away and went to the mirror to fix her hair. She tied her hair back to ponytail. Quinn observed her from behind. Rachel saw the way Quinn was looking at her through the mirror. Their eyes met in the mirror and they both smiled. She turned around and gave Quinn's hair a bit of touch up. She had messed up Quinn's hair quite a bit.

After a few run through, Mr Schue finally called it a day and treated them to New York City's finest pizza. They didn't do much that night as they have a very early morning call the next day. All of them were currently hanging out in the girls' room watching 'Ratatouille'. Quinn chose to sit on the couch because all the space in the bed was taken. Rachel stood in front of her and made an indication for her to make some space. Even though the couch could fit two very skinny people, it was still a bit snug for them. Quinn had no choice but to turn her body to the side a bit and put her arm around Rachel. They might have walked hand in hand in Central Park, but this action felt a little too intimate for all the Glee Club to see. Quinn noticed all the quick glances from everyone. It was not that they were disapproving, they were still getting used to this display. Rachel didn't help matter either; she had linked their hands and put it on her thigh. Finn had been eyeing them every once in a while. Sometimes Finn caught her eyes, and then she would glare at him and he would quickly look away, but a few minutes later, he would look their way again. She knew she had no claim on Rachel, their status was still undecided, but that didn't mean that it was okay for Finn to make googly eyes at Rachel.
