Chapter 8

A month has passed since the San Diego getaway. Quinn is now 25 weeks pregnant. Lately she's been feeling lonely as school has recently started and she's home alone all day with her thoughts and has major anxiety which bothers her to no end. Her biggest issue is that she feels lonely even though she has plenty of support. She tries to keep her anxiety and how she feels to herself, but that doesn't happen.

One day as Puck is coming home from school, he walks into the apartment and sees Quinn sitting on the couch in tears.

"Quinn, what's wrong?" Puck asks

"Nothing I'm fine." Quinn says

"It's ok to cry you know. I'm not gonna judge you for whatever you're upset about." Puck said

"I feel lonely ok. I'm here by myself everyday while you're at school and I just feel miserable. I know I shouldn't feel this way cause I have plenty of support. But it's just hard not to." Quinn says in tears

"Damn, I had no idea you felt that way. Quinn you're entitled to feel how you feel. I know that this is an out of body experience for you. Your body is through all these changes in a fast amount of time and you're only 20 years old. You've also gone through a significant amount of life changes in a short period of time. Look, I don't know what the future holds but one thing I want you to know is that I'll always be here for you and our daughter." Puck said

"Thank you for saying that Puck. When did you get so wise?" Quinn asked with a smile

"I've always been wise." Puck said cockily

"That's highly debatable. I mean you've done some pretty dumb shit in the 2 years that I've known you." Quinn said with a laugh

"Like what?" Puck asked

"You got fired from In n Out for peeing in the frier." Quinn started off

"FYI, that was 4 years ago, not within the past 24 months." Puck said smugly

"I'm aware of that. Anyways, so today your daughter won't stop kicking me nonstop." Quinn said

"Is she kicking right now?" Puck asked

"No. Anyways, how was your day?" Quinn asked

"It was pretty good. I just missed you and Beth today." Puck said

"Who's Beth?" Quinn asked

"That's what I'm gonna start calling our daughter. I really like the name and think that's what we should name her. What do you think?" Puck asked

"Yeah I like it. We could name her Bethany Sofia Puckerman and Beth can be her nickname." Quinn said with a smile

"I love it. Hi Beth, we just named you today. I hope you stop kicking mommy nonstop. We love you." Puck said with a smile
