"He leaned against the car and listened."

For the moment all he could do was watch her. She played with her hands, blushed like it was going out of style and kept tripping over her words. He wasn't sure what she had done or what he had to do with it, but for the moment he was amused. Quinn covered her face with her hands and waited for him to say something.

"... Unless you already knew?" Quinn asked, she looked up at him. Her eyes were bulging and she placed her hands over her mouth and he leaned against the car and listened.

"Can you speak slower? I haven't heard anything you've said."

"So you didn't get my voicemail?" Quinn asked. Huck pulled out his phone and shook his head no, there were no new notifications on his phone. "Oh... then... this was all pointless, goodnight." She turned quickly and headed back towards her apartment, he lunged forward and grabbed her elbow pulling her back towards him slowly.

"What did you say on the voicemail?" Huck asked.

"Nothing... important... just some stuff..." Quinn mumbled, she couldn't even look him in the eye.

"That sounds like a lie."

"I am a terrible liar."

"Is it better that I don't know?" Huck asked, Quinn nodded her head and he released her arm. "At least let me walk you upstairs, make sure you get in safely."

"See, you're so nice." Quinn said while walking inside with him, "It's why I probably ended up leaving that stupid voicemail in the first place.


"There was a long silence."

Quinn hadn't remembered going to sleep. One moment she was talking to Huck, she had been sitting beside him and then the next moment she was here, resting her head against someone warm with one hand wrapped around her waist. She sighed and snuggled closer to the warmth, and the longer she stayed there the more she realized that the warmth was an actual person with an arm around her and that only person could be Huck.

"You awake yet?" Huck asked, she could hear his fingertips moving quickly across the keys, she felt one hand around her waist that meant he had been doing his work this entire time with one hand. There was a long silence before she spoke, she was a tad bit ashamed to have fallen asleep on his shoulder like that.

"I am now, how long have I been sleep?" She asked, she raised her head and looked up to see him focusing on the screen.

"An hour, maybe two, I'm not sure."

"So it's late."

"Very late." Huck said.

"And your arm is probably asleep."

"Yeah, most likely." He said, his eyes bounced from the obviously broken pieces of code.

"And I have some work to do?" Quinn asked.

"We always do, gladiators in suits, remember?"

"I feel kind of odd saying that now." Quinn unwrappped her arms from around his torso, sometime within her impromptu nap she had curled around him which only added to her shame. "Harrison was the only one who wore a suit, and now he's... he's.. gone."

"Stephen wore suits too."

"And he's gone too, not dead gone, just normal gone." Quinn said while standing up.

"That's what I wanted to talk to you about, Stephen, he's coming back."

"Really?" Quinn smiled and then the words dawned on her, "Wait? That's not a good thing, is it?"

"No, not at all." Huck said, "He's gotten into trouble... again." Quinn noticed the way he said again he had sounded slightly annoyed as if Stephen's return wasn't nearly as exciting as it should have been.

"He's been in trouble before?" Quinn asked, Huck grunted and nodded his head while wiggling his right arm that had been wrapped around Quinn.

"I told you before, Olivia took us in, Stephen is no different." Huck said and Quinn took that as her cue to leave it alone. Whatever happened and whatever needed to be fixed she would soon find out about. "You're not sleeping well, are you?"

"I'm fine."

"You hit your head on the desk when you passed out in the middle of your sentence," Huck said, he turned to face her, "Normally I wouldn't mind you not talking but you need to sleep better, I don't want anything happening to you."

"I will." Quinn said.

"If you need help, you can always call me." He said and she nodded her head, there was another long silence before she turned and headed out the door. "You snore too."

"I do not!"
