Sleeping Beauty
Chapter 3: I'll Never Love Again
On the day Quinn was supposed to deliver their daughter she had to have a cesarean section. Because she was still in a coma and on the day Elizabeth Marie Puckerman was born. Everybody was there but Noah didn't seem to notice as he was staring at little Elizabeth the whole time. At one point Noah started singing along with Lady Gaga's song I'll Never Love Again as it played on the radio.
(Noah)
Wish I could, I could've said goodbye
I would've said what I wanted to
Maybe even cry for you
If I knew it would be the last time
I would've broke my heart in two
Try to save a part of you
Don't wanna feel another touch
Don't wanna start another fire
Don't wanna know another kiss
No other name falling off my lips
Don't wanna give my heart away
To another stranger
Won't let another day begin
Won't even let the sunlight in
I'll never love again
I'll never love again, ooh
When we first met
I never thought that I would fall
I never thought that I'd find myself
Lying in your arms
And I wanted to tell that it's all true
Oh baby, don't you know?
'Cause my world keeps turning, and turning, and turning
And I'm not moving on
Don't wanna feel another touch
Don't wanna start another fire
Don't wanna know another kiss
No other name falling off my lips
Don't want to give my heart away
To another stranger
Won't let another day begin
Won't even let the sunlight in
No, I'll never love
I don't wanna know this feeling
Unless it's you, and me
I don't want to waste this moment, ooh
And I don't wanna give somebody else
The better part of you
I would rather wait for you, ooh
Don't wanna feel another touch
Don't wanna start another fire
Don't wanna know another kiss
Baby, unless they are your lips
Don't want to give my heart away
To another stranger
Won't let another day begin
Won't even let the sunlight in
No, I'll never love again
Love again
No, I'll never love again
I'll never love again
I won't, I won't, I swear I can't
I wish I could, but I just won't
I'll never love again
I'll never love again
Oooooh
Oooooh
By the end of the song, everyone was crying and Burt had everyone leave. Before he whispered, "Please, God, let Quinn live. Don't let Puck go through the same pain I did. Don't do this to him. He has been through so much in his life and doesn't need this. You are not going to take Quinn from him like you took Elizabeth from me. Puck might be like me, but he doesn't need to go through the same pain I did. I love Carole and thank you for her everyday. But don't do this to Puck. Amen."
On the day Noah took Elizabeth home. He was afraid to leave Quinn and it took all the strength he had. Not to pick her up and carry her out of the hospital with Elizabeth. Burt was the one that drove him home or so Noah thought until he noticed they were at the cemetery in Lima where Finn and Elizabeth were buried. Before Noah can say anything Burt says, "Follow me."
Soon Noah was looking at Katherine Elizabeth Hummel's grave-stone as he held his daughter. Then Burt says, "It took me a long time to stop being mad at God for taking her." Before looking at Noah and saying, "Today, definitely stirred up old wounds. Puck, Elizabeth was only a week in her second pregnancy when she went into the coma. I don't think she even knew she was pregnant at the time and it was a miscarriage that killed her. Puck, I will help you keep Quinn alive because I am not going to stand by and let you go through the same pain I did. I watched Rachel go through that and it tore me up seeing her go through that. I know Carole was thinking of Finn's dad at that time too. I tried to be there for her and I know she still thinks of Finn on his birthday."
Noah was still looking at Elizabeth when he said, "Burt, Liza Marie was wrong it wasn't Quinn that wanted to name Little Elizabeth after Kurt's mom. Ha, she was my first crush but I never knew she was Kurt's mom until I saw a picture of her at your house. By the way, I have been keeping her grave stone clean since you had your heart attack." Then Noah started to cry before saying, "I thought Quinn was like her and this has made me question my faith in God so many times. That I started wondering why you still believe in God after what he did to you."
All Burt said was, "Carole helped with that and so did Finn. Hell, after Kurt started Glee I felt like I gained more sons and daughters. Ha, God, I am so glad Kurt didn't try to get me to date Norah. But I do think of Sarah as a daughter and I wished Nick would have been a better man for her and you." To which Noah says, "Whatever, Dad. Haha." Which made the two men laugh before they get back in Burt's truck and go to Noah's house.
