Lucy immediately teleported to a storming Quinn's side trotting by the blonde's thundered steps.
"Hey! Wait up!" Lucy tried but Quinn ignored her. "Hey, I'm talking to you!"
"Well I don't want to talk to you!"
"Come on!"
"Go away!"
"Hey, come on! Will you stop walking for minute!"
"Leave me alone!"
"Look we both know I hurt your feelings but-"
"Fuck you!"
"See! That right there is why I'm even an asshole to you! I am what you exude!"
"Don't feed me bullshit, I don't want to hear it! Just go back to that piece of shit car you call a home and stay out of my life!"
"I'm sorry okay!"
Quinn felt her feet slow to a stop of their own violation. Her back still to Lucy.
"I'm sorry.. I honestly didn't mean to hurt your feelings, Quinn. It was really insensitive of me to say such a thing." Lucy spoke soft and sincerely for the first time.
Quinn's eyes pricked with tears. She knew her life was pathetic but to hear someone say it to her, hurt more than her knowing it because it wasn't fair.
How did she make one mistake. One moment of trusting the wrong person who had more experience in his life than she did, turn her world upside down?
The truth is he preyed on her insecurities and got her in bed, taking something she held and cherished without real true consent by giving her alcohol even though she told him she'd never drank before he still took it.
Something that is so precious to her. So much so that she mourns the loss of her virginity even til this day and now some how she was the disgrace of the school.
She was even more of a loser than the school social pariah Rachel Berry.
She lost her family. She Lost her home. She... She was alone and he was still popular with all the girls wanting him and Finn.. The one person she thought she loved threw her out like yesterday's trash.
No one cared about her but all respected and wanted him. Noah Puckerman. How pathetic is she?
Lucy felt it. All of Quinn's pain caused her eyes to well.
She sniffled and Quinn turned her head at the sound. Than the blonde's eyes widened in shock.
"Are you.. Are you crying?" Quinn asked in bewilderment.
"Yeah.." Lucy puffed out with emotion thick in her throat. "It's a thing." The lion replied with a roll of her eyes and a gentle toss of her head as if she were flipping her mane from her eyes.
"How?"
"Do I look like I know? They're your tears. It's your fault. So please, for the love of god! Please accept my apology and stop with all the awful sadness. It physically hurts to feel and see you cry."
Quinn eyes softened but were still guarded. "Really?"
"That's what I've been trying to explain. I feel physical pain because of you. Imagine being stabbed with a knife into your heart and the pain burning through every inch of your body."
Quinn winced. "So.. You, like, feel everything, everything? Like even when I have to use the bathroom?"
"Thank god." Lucy sighed in relief when she felt Quinn's natural calm fill her. The Lion laid in the snow tiredly. Feeling emotionally spent. "Yes, I can feel when you have to use the bathroom."
"That's so weird and kind of gross."
"Tell me about it." Lucy replied tiredly.
Silence engulfed them. Quinn watched Lucy and felt herself feeling bad for putting the lion through what she knows was pregnancy hormones.
Because prior to pregnancy, she's never been that emotional and her mood never swung so abruptly.
The blonde hesitantly walked to the lion. She wrung her hands and Lucy felt her nervousness which caused Lucy to become wary.
"Yes?" Lucy inquired.
"I'm.." Quinn took a deep breath because apologizing was not her thing. She never apologizes because she never feels wrong.
"I'm sorry, Lucy. I didn't mean to flip out on you. I know you were just explaining things to me. I promise to try and control myself better when I'm around you." Quinn spoke quietly and Lucy's jaw was on the floor.
No one has ever in all her years on earth, apologized to her. She was always told to deal with it because whomever it was, was her master and her feelings didn't matter.
Quinn froze when she felt it. Her heart constricted. Her eyes welled with tears and shock spread through her chest along with wariness and a tinge of wanting to believe the sincerity that fell from her own lips.
Except it wasn't her own feelings she was feeling. It was Lucy's. Quinn reached up as she felt tears begin to run down her cheeks. She wiped them in awe. She looked down at Lucy who was also crying.
"Oh my god.. It's real." Quinn whispered in awe. "I feel you.."
"What?" Lucy replied her head snapping up in even more shock. The Lion got to her feet instantly. "What did you just say?"
"I said I can feel you?" Quinn asked confused because she's pretty sure they covered that if the argument and apologies were anything to go by.
"Are you sure?"
"What do you mean am I sure? I thought you said we were linked?"
"Yes I did and we are but I meant only I can feel what your feeling, not the other way around." Lucy spoke in wild awed confusion. Lucy walked toward Quinn in a dazed trance of wonder. "What are you?"
"I don't understand." Quinn replied.
"Neither do I. Why are you crying?"
"Because you were crying."
"Like your crying with me or for me?"
"I'm pretty sure I'm crying from you."
Silence. Lucy was flabbergasted. This. All of this. Quinn, that Rachel girl. None of this has ever happened before. How could Quinn feel her?
"Um.. Can we sit back in the car because I'm getting cold." Quinn asked as she shivered and pulled her raggedy coat tighter around her shivering form.
"I have a better idea because this conversation is going to take a lot longer than expected and I'm sure you don't want to sit in a cold car but I can only do it if you trust me."
"What?" Quinn asked in slight wariness not so much because of Lucy but because the last time she allowed herself to 'trust' someone he didn't use the condom he said he would and she ended up pregnant.
"I just need you to trust me but I can feel you don't."
"Well it's kind of hard considering not only did I just meet you but also because your a magical being that could possibly screw me over and no one would be the wiser."
"Touche.. But seriously, I promise you if you trust me you won't regret it and! You would be very satisfied."
"There you go sounding like a dirty pervert again."
"If I'm the pervert so are you since your the one's whose mind goes to gutter immediately."
"Touche." Quinn replied with a smirk feeling herself become relaxed. She felt herself already giving in and trusting Lucy. The blonde took a deep breath. "Okay.. So what do I have to do?"
"All you have to do is trust. Do you trust me?"
Quinn snorted in laughter. "There you go again, Aladdin."
"Har Har, does that make you my Jasmin than?" Lucy asked coyly.
"In your dreams." Quinn replied with arrogance.
"Alright, Alright Ms. I'm the shit."
"Someone's got a potty mouth."
"Anyway, take a deep breath and try to relax your mind and body."
Quinn did as she was told.
"Close your eyes."
"Ok."
Quinn took a deep breath and cleared her mind, relaxed her body staying perfectly still. It didn't happen immediately but she suddenly felt extremely warm and could smell salt water.
"Open your eyes." Lucy spoke with a smile in her tone.
Quinn's eyes opened softly and she gasped. Her eyes were wide and her jaw fell open in shock.
She was at the edge of a high cliff above a clear see through beautiful blue ocean and the sun was just setting.
"Oh my god.." Quinn whispered breathless.
"Nice, huh?"
"How are we? Where are we?" Quinn asked as she felt her chest fill with happiness.
"We are at Navagio, Zakynthos."
Quinn's jaw dropped once more. "Greece?! We're in Greece?!"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Wow.." Quinn whispered as she stared over the expanse of ocean. Than her eyes fell to Lucy. She walked over, her eyes soft and Lucy began to squirm. "Why did you bring me here?"
Lucy looked down and shrugged, scuffing her paw against the dirt. "You said you were cold and we had to talk about everything so.. It's no big deal.."
Quinn melted in that moment. The blonde carefully kneeled downed on one knee than hesitantly reached out her hand to lightly placed her hand on Lucy's shoulder. "Hey.."
Lucy looked up. "Do you.. Do you not like it?" Lucy asked insecurely.
Quinn scoffed and shook her head in disbelief at Lucy. "Are you kidding me, Luce? This is amazing! I just.. I can't express how wonderful this is, I just meant.. Well, I've been awful to you and you bring me here. I just wanted to know why?"
"Well.. Yeah you were awful but.."
Quinn rolled her eyes with a lopsided smile. They were facts, she knows how awful she can be.
"But you were also sincere in your apology. You were nice to me when we first spoke about everything in car. You said I could name myself and you let me. You weren't completely horrible and up until this point I wasn't sure what kind of master you'd be. Once people know their my master they aren't kind anymore." Lucy finished with slight bitterness but Quinn could feel the hurt tenfold and felt her self become sad.
"Well you don't have to worry about that anymore." Quinn could feel Lucy's mistrust. "I know you don't trust me but I will prove it to you."
Quinn's stomach growled and the blonde ducked her head sheepishly. Lucy chuckled.
"Hungry?"
Quinn nodded.
"Me too. Now stand back and watch the master work." Lucy spoke smugly.
She had never showed out like this but than again Quinn has been slowly showing her she wasn't a normal master.
Before Quinn could blink a picnic blanket with an abundance of food Quinn has never tasted appeared before her. The blonde's eyes sparkled.
