Danielle: Thanks for the review, glad you are enjoying the story!
Unforgiva: Finn and Quinn have had it rough but what can you expect with all of their history and her history with Puck. A lot of variables went into play in writing scenes and although it seems Finn and Quinn will never be happy, that may not be the case. I won't guarantee who will end up with who but I can say that the characters will get a happy ending.
AAA: I wouldn't be too worried about the baby.
Tessie: I think you are right about Puck and Santana but who knows, maybe she will suddenly grow a conscience in the next chapter haha. I'm glad you don't hate Puck, that was kind of the point of the last chapter. He made mistakes but he is trying to make up for them in the only way he knows how. Remorse means something to him. As for the baby, I think he will be just fine
Once again I'd like to thank you all for your reviews. I have been getting more each update and it really means so much. As a side note I just wanted to address a few things before continuing with the chapter.
I've gotten some comments about people not being a fan of Puck for what he did to Quinn in the custody battle and before when he cheated on her and left her. This doesn't exactly make him the most likeable character but I hope you all can see that he really is trying to make things better. He came back for Beth and even though he did fight Quinn for custody, keep in mind he tried to talk to her about an arrangement not once but twice before suing, it is clear that he is starting to feel remorseful about everything he did and inadvertently continues to do to Quinn. I don't want you to hate his character as he really is trying to make things right but at the same time also wants to be his daughter's father. I know Finn stepped up and Puck really doesn't have a right to just come back into Beth's life like he never left, but I think it is sweet that he realized the mistakes he made and he is just trying to fix them. So don't hate Puck and keep all of this in mind, because if you do have ill feelings towards him, you probably aren't going to like how I have this story planned to end.
That being said, I think I have exhausted every possible plot twist imaginable without totally making this story unbelievable. As I have told some of you in reviews, I think it is headed toward the end soon. I'd love to continue if the ideas are there, but right now I am stumped. I have a few more chapters planned out which will bring all of the stories and close everything out I think but who knows. After I write my last planned chapter, I'll ask you guys if you have any ideas or want to see this story continue. Now, I just wanted to give a heads up.
Now, time for the story to continue!
"I love you," Finn said as he kissed the top of Quinn's head. "Everything is going to be okay."
"Finn, I need you to go to your mom's and get Beth," Quinn told her husband. "There is a bag of her stuff already packed in the closet of your mom's house. I need you to bring that with you. Make sure you open the bag before you come back here."
"Babe, I'm not leaving you," Finn assured her.
"Finn, listen to me. You have to do this. I need to see my baby," Quinn told him.
"Fine, but only after I find out how our other baby is doing," Finn smiled at her. "Oh and I'm not leaving you alone. I'm calling Mercedes to wait here with you until I get back."
"Finn, you're too sweet," Quinn smiled at him and grabbed his hand when she saw the doctor walk back into the room.
"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Hudson, how are you doing today?" Doctor Jacobs asked.
"Good I think but my wife passed out earlier and we wanted to come here so we could check on how she and the baby are doing," Finn told the doctor. "Everything is going to be okay Quinn," Finn said as he continued to hold her hand.
"I'm sorry but did you say Quinn as in Quinn Fabray?" Doctor Jacobs asked.
"Yeah how did you know, wait, oh my God Doctor Jacobs?" Quinn asked.
"How are you Quinn and how is baby Beth?" he asked.
"We're good but Beth isn't a baby anymore, she is two years old," Quinn told her doctor.
"Wow, they grow up so fast," the doctor smiled. "So you and Noah are having another little one?"
"Umm, no actually he and I broke up shortly after Beth was born. This is my husband, Finn Hudson," Quinn told Doctor Jacobs. "And Finn, this is Doctor Jacobs. He delivered Beth," Quinn told her husband.
"Nice to meet you Finn," the doctor said as he shook the younger man's hand.
"Likewise," Finn responded.
"Okay well let me just take a look at your little guy," Doctor Jacobs said as he hooked up some equipment to allow Finn and Quinn to see the ultrasound of their baby. "He looks perfectly healthy to me. Heartbeat is good. He is growing exactly how he should."
Finn smiled as he watched his son move around on the ultrasound. "That's our little boy Quinn, that's our son," he said as he looked lovingly into Quinn's eyes.
"Our perfect little guy," Quinn said as she also looked at the ultrasound picture.
"Okay guys, I'm going to leave you two alone and get you a print out of this little guy," the doctor said before leaving the room.
"Things are going to get better Quinn," Finn said as he tried to comfort his wife. "We are going to get Beth back and she is going to have a brother. Everything is going to work out."
Quinn offered a small smile. She was less optimistic than Finn especially since she still had to get examined to see about her PPD. Something about Quinn had her feeling that she wouldn't pass the test. It wasn't that she felt distant with Beth, it wasn't that at all. She just had this weird feeling that something would go wrong.
"Okay guys," Doctor Jacobs said as he returned to the room. "Here is a dvd and a picture of the sonogram. He is about three months and is perfectly healthy and all features are growing in at the rate that they should. I'll expect you back in the next two weeks for another check-up, okay Quinn?"
"Of course Doctor Jacobs," Quinn said. "Can I ask you something?"
"Of course," the doctor responded.
"Do you think that you could schedule a psych evaluation for me?" Quinn asked much to her doctor's confusion.
"Sure Quinn but why is that necessary?" Doctor Jacobs asked.
"After Beth was born Puck thought that I might have PPD and when I was examined by a doctor he proved that and gave me a prescription," Quinn confessed.
"I didn't know Quinn," the doctor admitted. "I wish I could have done something to help."
"Yeah me too," Quinn said. "The doctor I talked to was an old family friend of Puck's so he promised to keep it off the record."
"Makes sense," Doctor Jacobs said. "PPD is most common within the first few months of pregnancy however. Beth is two so you shouldn't be worried about it returning."
"I'm not but I have to get the examination in order to get Beth back," Quinn told her doctor.
"Did someone take her because of your PPD?" he asked.
"Yeah, Puck did," Quinn admitted. "It is kind of a long story but he left when Beth was seven months old and came back and decided that he wanted to be in her lie again so he sued for and won temporary custody until I can prove that I'm not a danger to my child."
"Quinn, I'm so sorry to hear that," the doctor said. "I always thought you and Noah would work out. You both seemed so ready to be parents that I just thought it would last."
"So did I," Quinn sighed. "But it is okay because I got back together with my true love Finn and now I just need to prove that I am healthy enough to raise the daughter I have already been raising for two years with no help from Puck."
"I understand how that must feel Quinn," Doctor Jacobs confessed. "My ex-wife tried to take my two boys from me. Eventually we were able to come to agreement for joint custody and I hope you and Puck will eventually do the same, because both of you are great parents. Until then however, I'll do your psych exam so you can get Beth back."
"Thank you Doctor Jacobs, that would mean so much to me," Quinn said as she smiled at Finn. "When can I get it done?"
"I know that you don't want to wait so if you are up for it I can do it right now," the doctor said as he wrote down a few scribbles on his notepad.
"Yeah, that would be great," Quinn said.
"Honey don't you think you should give yourself some time, I mean you did just pass out because of stress," Finn reminded her.
"The sooner I can get my daughter back the better," Quinn told him. "I'm ready to go Doctor Jacobs."
"Okay let me just get a psychiatrist and I'll be back in here for us to do this examination," the doctor told her as he left the room.
"Quinn, are you sure you are ready to do this?" Finn asked concerned.
"I am positive baby," Quinn reassured him. "Now I need you to go get Beth and that stuff I asked you to get okay? I'll be fine here."
Against his better judgment Finn agreed to leave. "Alright baby, but you call me if you need anything," he said as he kissed her on the forehead and left the room.
