Rachel was climbing up the tree outside Quinn's window and tapping on it waiting for Quinn to notice her, she could see her girlfriend sitting on her bed already dressed in her pajamas, with her laptop writing and smiling. Quinn looked up towards the widow and her mouth opened in shock as she saw Rachel outside grinning at her.

Quinn closed her laptop and jumped up from the bed and rushed to the window to open it.

"What are you doing?" She said as Rachel started to climb in.

"I missed you and wanted to see you" Rachel said innocently as she stood up straight smiling at Quinn.

"You can't just climb up the tree every time you miss me" Quinn said looking serious and putting her hands on her hip. "You could've called."

"It's not the same" Rachel pouted as she stepped towards her girlfriend and started to pick on the bottom of Quinn's t-shirt.

Quinn was really trying to look strict, but she couldn't help the smile on her lips when her girlfriend was so cute.

They have been dating for a few months now and Quinn quickly learned that Rachel needed a minimum of seven cuddles a week, and Quinn was not complaining. This wasn't an unusual situation. The moment Rachel saw an opportunity to sneak into Quinn's room she would do it and they would spend the night together just holding around each other.

"What are you working on?" Rachel pointed over at the laptop on the bed as she got closer to Quinn her smile growing bigger.

"It's a glee thing, nothing for you to worry about" Quinn smiled as she saw Rachel raise a eyebrow and Quinn closed the distance and kissed her. She could feel Rachels hands on her hips dragging her closer.

"I really missed you" Rachel sighed as they parted leaning her forehead against Quinn's forehead.

"We just saw each other a few hours ago at school Rach" Quinn chuckles as she takes Rachels hand and leads her to the bed.

The black t-shirt Rachel usually uses when she sleeps over was laying on a pillow next to where Quinn was sitting. Quinn took it and gave it to Rachel.

"I missed you too" She said and kissed Rachel on her cheek. Rachel smiled from ear to ear ripping off her clothes to change she didn't fail to see Quinn biting her lip while taking inn her girlfriends' body.

"See something you like?" Rachel smiles looking at Quinn who was sitting on the edge of her bed looking at her grinning.

"Always" Quinn didn't get a chance to deepen her answer because Rachel jumped on top of her and kissed her.

"You. Are. So. Cute." Rachel says as she kisses her between each word. Quinn starts to giggle as she holds around Rachel waist, so she won't fall.

"I love you." Both Quinn and Rachel freezes for a moment just looking at each other. "I mean it Rach, I love you." Rachel didn't know what to say, or she did but she was feeling so much joy and love she couldn't remember how to speak.

"It's okay if you don't feel the same, I wasn't planning on saying anything, but you're just so amazing and it just fell out and-" Quinn's rambling was interrupted by Rachel throwing herself over Quinn so that they fell down on the bed and their lips crashing together.

"Of course I love you Quinn, I just wanted the perfect moment to tell you.

"And I ruined it?" Quinn smiles up at Rachel who shakes her head.

"No. You made me realize that any moment would be perfect."

Quinn's hart melted and she was about to lean up and kiss Rachel again when she heard footsteps.

"Shit. Hide my mom is coming." She whispered as she tried to get up from the bed. Rachel jumped up and ran as quietly as she could over to Quinn's closet. Quinn tried to calm her breath and grabbed her phone as her mother knocked on the door.

Quinn walked over and opened the door. On the other side of the door Judy was standing with a curious look on her face. "Are you ok Quinn I heard you talking to somebody."

"I'm fine mom, I was talking to Rachel on the phone. I'm sorry if we were loud" Quinn smiled at her mother hoping that she would be convinced.

"It's a little late to be talking with Rachel now Quinn, it is a school night after all, and knowing her she will be here for breakfast tomorrow you should be able to be separated for a few hours." Judy looked at her daughter there were something different about her, there was a light in her eyes she hadn't seen before.

"Ok mom, we were just about to say good night anyway."

"Good. I love you sweetheart. Good night." Judy gives Quinn a kiss on her forehead and walks away

"Love you to mom."

Quinn closes the door and breaths out in relief. She walks over to her closet and opens the door looking straight in her girlfriends' eyes. She puts her index finger to her mouth and takes Rachel's hand and guides her quietly to her bed and they lay down together not saying a word just holding each other as they fall asleep.

They woke up to a knock on the door. "Quinn, honey it's time to wake up." There is a pause. "And tell Rachel to use the stairs when she's coming down."

"Shit." Quinn sighs. "Well it was fun knowing you" Rachel laughs nervously, and Quinn gives her a look that says not funny. They get dressed and walks down hand in hand entering the kitchen where Judy was drinking her coffee and reading the newspaper. "I made you breakfast and fresh coffee" she says, not looking up from the paper.

They took their food and coffee and sat down at the table opposite of Judy who placed the newspaper down and looked at them with a serious expression.

"I guess this isn't the first time you've slept over Rachel." She looked at them both with a hint of sadness in her eyes.

"I trust you Quinn, I trust that you won't do anything that you would feel uncomfortable doing. But I thought you had enough respect for me that you would not do something like this without telling me. I will admit that I am a little angry with you both right now. I understand that you are teenagers but that is not an excuse for you to lie to me. I expect more from you. I will not deny you seeing each other I would never do that. But I want to know what is going on in my house and I want you to know that my trust in you is broken."

Judy takes a long pause, Rachel and Quinn looks down feeling ashamed. "I would advise you Rachel that you tell your parents if they don't know, and maybe think about the consequences if something were to happen and they didn't know where you were."

Judy gets up from the table and cleans up after herself. She walks over to Quinn and kisses her on her head. "I love you Quinn I hope you know that. All I want is for you not to sneak around and lie to me."

Judy starts to walk out to the hallway to get to work. Quinn runs after her with tears in her eyes "Mom! I'm sorry, I didn't think. It was stupid of me I would never disrespect you on purpose."

"It's fine Quinn. Just don't let it happen again you know you can talk to me." Quinn nodded and Judy gives her a brief smile before going out the door. Leaving Quinn in the hallway feeling ashamed and disappointed in herself. She could feel Rachel coming behind her. Her arms slide around her waist and her chin resting on her shoulder.

"I really fucked up Rach."

"We both did" Rachel tightens her arms around Quinn.

"She is right, she's done nothing but support us, she's always been there for me and I knew the one thing she asked of me was honesty." Quinn's voice brakes. Rachel turns Quinn around to look her in her eyes.

"After practice today I'll come home with you and we tell Judy the truth, about me. And if that means I don't get to spend any more nights with you, I mean it's going to suck but-"

Quinn stopped her by kissing her lips. "You are amazing Rach, but if you are uncomfortable with it, we won't do it."

Rachel smiles back at her. She takes her hand up to Quinn's cheek and strokes her. "The conversation is not going to be fun, but I think it will be necessary."

They finished their breakfast and went to school. They were both nervous wrecks all day at school and Quinn noticed that Rachel was really distracted during practice. She got taken down almost all the time which was very uncommon. When she was asked what she was doing and if something was wrong, she would just shake her head and go back in position giving Quinn a quick glans not wanting Quinn to notice.

They drove into the driveway and parked behind Judy's car. Quinn turned off the ignition and looked over at Rachel who was staring at the front door with a serious look. She noticed Quinn's eyes on her at met them. "Good thing my bike is still here" Rachel tried to lighten the mood with a small chuckle, but she failed. Quinn tried to give her a smile, but it was barely visible.

They got out of the car and into the house. Judy was in the kitchen preparing dinner. Quinn took Rachels hand for support. "Mom, do you have a moment to talk?"

Judy turned around and saw the two nervous teenagers and stopped what she was doing and walked over to the table so that they could sit down. Quinn and Rachel joined her on the opposite side so that they were facing Judy. Judy didn't say anything, she could see that they needed some time to gather their courage.

Rachel tightened her hold on Quinn's hand and started talking, she informed Judy about her head condition what the diagnoses and treatment was, that there was a big chance for her to either become, paralyzed, brain dead or die. She stopped for a moment when she felt Quinn start to shake. She looked over and gave her a small smile. She then proceeded to inform Judy about her other situation, that she was born with a penis and that she would understand if Judy don't want her to date her daughter anymore.

Judy was shocked, she had gotten a lot of information in a very short time. "You knew about all of this?" Judy looks at her daughter who just nods in responds a few tears traveling down her cheeks. Judy gets up from the table and walks over to Rachel who stands up and brasses herself for whatever Judy was about to say or do.

Without saying anything Judy takes Rachel in for a hug, a little shocked Rachel lifts her arms and return the hug. "I am so sorry for what you are going through Rachel. No child should be going through something like this." Judy steps away. "thank you for telling me. I won't deny you from seeing my daughter, I know you like each other a lot. What I do ask of you is that you only use the front door from now on and tell me when you sleep over." There is a small pause. "And please tell your parents when you are staying over. I trust you both, and I would rather you sleep under my or your parents' roof than sneak off to god knows where."

Judy smiled at the two shocked girls in front of her, Quinn slowly got up from the chair and stepped beside Rachel. Judy walked over to the kitchen counter and continued her cooking.

"Can you tell your fathers to call me when you get home? I think we need to talk."

Rachel nodded then realized that Judy couldn't see her and pushed out a silent "Yes."

Quinn took her hand and guided her to the front door. "I can't believe that just happened" Quinn said still surprised by her mother's response. "You and me both. I'll call you before I go to bed tonight." Rachel smiles at Quinn "I love you" She leans in and kisses Quinn. Quinn smiles back at her when they separate. "I love you too".

"How did it go?" Rachel heard Quinn's voice through her phone. She was lying on her bed looking up at her wall.

"Ok, I guess. I only got grounded for one week starting tomorrow. So, we'll only get to see each other in school and at practice." Rachel sighs "They didn't say anything about any future sleepovers I guess they want to talk to Judy first."

"One week isn't so bad, I was afraid it was going to be a lot worse." Quin says. "True, but it's one week without you next to me, it's going to fucking suck"

"I know babe, but I'd rather take one week over a month or more."

They fell asleep talking to each other over the phone.

Rachel was finishing her breakfast and getting ready for school when her fathers comes into the kitchen wanting to talk to her. "Rachel, your dad and I've been talking, and we've talked to Judy and we agree with Judy. We want you and Quinn to tell us when you or Quinn a sleeping over here or at Judy's. We don't want you to sneak around. You are still grounded for a week because you've been lying to us and you are only to use your phone if there is an emergency."

Rachel smiles and runs over to her fathers to give them a hug each. "Thank you, thank you, thank you. I promise I won't use my phone and I'll do everything you say."

"Ok honey" Leroy laughs at his daughter. "Get ready for school I'll drive you."
