So it's Saturday and I'm at school for this stupid booty camp thing. Puck hasn't brought up to me anything about what I said to him Thursday. Mr. Shu is really pushing us to be good dancers. Puck and I are always partners. I have to be honest I did miss hanging out with him during glee. Anyway Mercedes showed up late. She said she overslept but it was four thirty in the afternoon. Then Mike tried to catch her up on the moves we had just learned but she said she felt sick. Mr. Shu like yelled at her it was pretty funny. Puck saw me smiling and he shook his head as in to tell me to stop.

The other day during lunch when we practiced at booty camp Mercedes started yelling at Mr. Shu saying he favors Rachel. She's always been jealous of her. I think it is her new boyfriend putting things in her head. She said she has outgrown all of us. It all just makes me laugh. Like glee club even matters. Then Mr. Shu said if she left she was out of glee club. But she left anyway.

Yesterday after school I went up to Puck who was at his locker and said,

"Do you wanna babysit with me maybe tomorrow night?"

"Well if it is anything like last time we babysat, I'm in."

"Okay perfect. We just have to convince Mrs. Corcoran to let us babysit Beth."

"Wait what? You haven't even asked her?"

"No but tomorrow morning we will ask her together."

"Fine."

"Great!" I kissed him on the cheek and walked away. He looked shocked. I turned around and he was looked at me holding his cheek giving me that smirk. I was just so happy. I was hoping that tomorrow would go perfect and Puck would realize we are good parents and that way I could sabotage the house and then call child services. It was a full proof plan.

So the next morning Puck met me by my locker. We were both eager. We walked together to the students lounging area. We saw her inside. Puck was ahead of me and opened the door to let me go first. How sweet. I walked in and we both sat next to her, I said

"Hello. We got you something."

"Concealer?"

"To help with the bags. You've been looking tired, which makes sense. You're a single mother, you've relocated, you have a new job, it's no wonder you've stopped working out. Let us babysit Beth for a couple of hours any night of your choosing for some me time."

"Have you ever babysat before?"

"Ask Mr. Shu. We took care of his sister in laws three demon spawns and they were practically praying by the end of the night. Please. You said you wanted us to get to know Beth."

She agreed.

During glee that day everyone was upset that we lost Mercedes. It was kind of Mr. Shu's fault he pushed her to far. And now coach Sylvester cut our funding for our play west side story. I didn't care much about it but everyone else seem to. Mr. Shu said we had to sell ads for the program so we could still have the show. We all had to get in a buddy system to walk around town to sell them. When we were picking partners I said,

"Can I go with Puck." I was behind everyone else so everyone turned around and gave me a 'why? Are you guys like together?' look. Mr. Shu after a minute said

"Yeah sure. So everyone knows to meet here after school tomorrow with there buddy."

Rachel was with Finn, Tina was with Mike and Artie, Kurt was with Blaine, and Santana was with Brittany. So I was bound to end up with Puck but I didn't not want to chance it yeah know. I wanted to talk to him about Beth.

Tonight is the night we watch her. The first night I get to hold her since the hospital. Puck picked me up around five to go to Mrs. Corcoran's. When I got in the car I noticed he brought his guitar.

"Oh good you brought your guitar."

"Yeah just in case. Yeah because of last time we babysat."

"Yeah we did pretty good at that. Just no sexting during it this time."

"No problem. I'm totally a hundred and ten percent focused on my girls." I smiled as if we were already a family. This is what it would be like.

When Puck pulled up to her the apartment complex it was nice but tiny. We got out and walked to the door. I rang the doorbell. She answered and said,

"Hi come in. She is over there in her crib." My heart was beating so fast. I went over to the crib and saw her. She had gorgeous eyes and nice golden blonde hair. Puck came over and we were both staring at her. Mrs. Corcoran said,

"Okay let me give you guys my number." Puck went over to her and she wrote it on his hand. I was still staring at her. She had Puck's smirk.

She then came over and picked up Beth. Okay so you have my number. I'll be back Beth okay." She seemed nerves. I got a little jealous that she had my baby in her arms. "Okay honey give mommy a kiss." You're not her mom I am. When she handed me Beth she started crying. "It's okay as soon as I leave I know she'll stop okay bye guys!" She shut the door and left.

I was holding her. She was warm and beautiful. Its like I couldn't move I don't want to hurt her. She wouldn't stop crying though is that a bad sign?

Puck came over and said,

"Okay let me take her. She likes me." He grabbed her and put him in his arms. "It's okay big daddy's gotcha." Beth then stopped crying.

I immediately got up and put my bag on the table Puck asked what I was doing and I said,

"Proving that Shelby is an unfit mother. First we plant the stuff and then we call child services. Starting in the bathroom." I walked toward the bathroom determined.

Puck followed me in the bathroom. He shut the door so I knew he was there.

"Baby botulism." I turned around. "I saw this lady on TV that made her kids forehead as smooth as his butt people practically lynched her."

I walked out to the living room towards her book shelf. Puck tried to stop me by saying,

"You don't think she's going to notice?"

"She's only sleeping four hours a night she barely knows her name." Puck went over to see what I put in the bookshelf and said,

"Baby sacrifice makes me sad."

I ignored him and went straight to the kitchen and put extreme hot sauce in her pantry. Puck said,

"Whats wrong with Shelby eating Mexican? Is that like a boob milk thing?"

"It's illegal to give hot stuff to babies. This mom used to put a drop on her kids tongue when he was bad, she went to jail for a year."

"Jail seems a little extreme. Shelby's a good mom."

"Do you want our baby back or not?"

"Yeah I do." He looked upset. I don't know what his problem was. With all this stuff in here we definitely will.

The next day I pulled Puck into a classroom. We needed to talk. I had my arm on his shoulder I said,

"How many pools are there in Lima?"

"I don't know twenty five, thirty." I let go of his shoulder and he turned to face me I said,

"You need to stop messing around and get a real job. Do you have any idea how much it costs to raise a child. I called child protective services but they said they'll get back to me apparently they have a bigger case right now. But we should have our baby back within like two weeks."

"Holy crap I can't believe you actually called them." He looked mad.

"Everybody has their big plans! Colleges, New York, even you have you're stupid pool cleaning business I mean what do I have." I wasn't looking at Puck anymore I was facing straight,

"Beth is perfect. She's my perfect thing. Something even I can't screw up. Do you know how hard it is to do something perfectly." I turned to look at him, "I'll never get the chance again. So even if I never leave this town or accomplish anything." It was getting hard to fight back my tears. "I'll have her to call mine." Puck looked at me with sympathy in his eyes. He then gave me a big huge. I cried into his shoulder.

I went to the bathroom to clean myself up before the whole glee club went on this walk around the city. How fun.

When I got to the choir room everyone was in there waiting. Mr. Shu said,

"Okay so everybody ready? Get with your partner everybody has my number, call me if you need me. We meet back at the front entrance of the school in two hours okay guys?" We all nodded. "Okay let's go!"

I walked out of the school and waited there for Puck to come out. Everyone had passed by me in there little groups. Of course he was last. He came up to me and said,

"You ready?"

"Oh yeah." I rolled my eyes. We had to go uptown which wasn't too bad of an area. We went to every door but nobody wanted to pay for an ad in a play program nobody was going to see. On our walk Puck asked me,

"So why did you wanna do this with me?"

"Well I trust you to keep me safe...And I thought we could talk about Beth."

"Ahhh."

"Why would you rather do it with someone else?"

"Nope. Nobody but you Quinn." I smiled.

"Quinn this whole trying to get Beth back was cute in the beginning but now I'm getting freaked out, your scaring me. You need to stop."

"You don't want our baby back?"

"I do you know that, but not like this."

"Its okay Puck protective services will find all the stuff I put there and then it will be okay. She will be ours again."

"I took the stuff back Quinn."

"What? You did what!?"

"I went over there this morning and took the stuff. Don't worry she didn't see me do it."

"Puck how could you!" Tears were falling from my eyes. I sat down on the curb and put my head in my hands and I cried. Puck came over to me and sat next to me. He put his hand on my back and rubbed it.

"I have nothing else to live for. I'm never going to get out of this dumb town! I'll be stuck here forever!"

"No you won't Quinn. Maybe you should put all this effort you are putting into ruin Shelby's life into school. That way you can go to a good college and make Beth proud of her birth mother. You have a chance to live your life anyway you want. Let's face it, we are to young and naive to be parents."

"I need her Puck. I don't think I can go a day without thinking about her. Since she got back into my life it has been so much harder. I used to think of her every other day but now I can't stop." Tears we falling from my eyes.

"Then we just tell Shelby we don't want to see Beth anymore."

"I can't do that knowing Beth's in Lima. I'm not that heartless."

"You're not heartless at all." He looks me in the eyes.

"Are you going to kiss me again"

"Only if you want me to." I do but I can't,

"I just have all these emotions right now, I used to be a skank, now I don't know who I am and if you kissed me it would just-" He leans in and kisses me as if to shut me up.

"Your freaking Quinn Fabray. Whatever you do you'll be great at doing it." I stood up and started walking. I told him not to kiss me! And he does just to shut me. I was a little annoyed and said,

"Yeah whatever." He didn't like that answer. He walked up behind me and started to tickle me in my most ticklish spots. I couldn't stop laughing. I haven't laughed like this in a very long time.

I screamed out,

"Stop! Stop! It tickles!" From behind he wrapped his arms around me. I looked over my shoulder at him and kissed him. I turned to face him his hands still around my waist.

We kiss again but this time it's slower. I feel his tongue. His hand moves up from my waist to my neck. I back away to catch my breath.

It was amazing! Like a million doves taking off with fireworks behind them and Jesus just standing in the middle with his thumbs up. I don't know how to explain it obviously but wow. He must have felt the same way, but without Jesus...cause he is Jewish but still.

I open my eyes and see Puck's face. He looks calm, his eyes still shut and mouth open. He opens his eyes I say,,

"I'm sorry I don't know what got over me."

"Oh its fine honestly. You weren't the only one, I kissed you back." We both started laughing. For no reason we just couldn't stop laughing. Tears were coming out our eyes from laughing.

After we caught our breath he said,

"Okay we should go back to school now." I nodded my head.
