Quinn's POV

I wake up and feel around the bed, it's then that I realize that I am not in my door room in the tiny bed I usually sleep in because if I was then I wouldn't have much room to feel around. I sit up and look around and remember where I am, as I remember that I am in the guest room at Shelby's house, that is also when I remember that Shelby also died in a car accident yesterday. I get up and look at myself in the mirror and see that my eyes are slightly red and my hair is messy, I try to flatten my hair down the best that I can and then walk out of the room. The first thing that hits me as I walk out of the room is the smell of something cooking in the kitchen, I walk into the kitchen and see Puck flipping pancakes and then putting them on a plate that already has a small stack on it. Puck turns around and looks surprised to see me "Hey your up, sit down I made breakfast" I sit down and he puts a plate in front of me, I take a bite and am surprised that it doesn't actually tasted that bad

"Since when do you cook?"

"What do you mean?"

"You never cooked for me before, not even when we were together"

"Were we ever really together?"

"We had a baby together, I think that counts for something" I then remember about Beth, how right now she is in some foster home with a bunch of strangers that the child protective services through would be a better place for her right now than with her birth parents

"How did you sleep last night?" he changes the subject and I am happy he does, we can't afford to get into the middle of our history right now, Beth needs us and it would be best if we weren't fighting

"Not very well, can you tell?"

"No not at all, you still look pretty damn perfect" he laughs a little but I'm not sure if he means that as a joke or not. There is suddenly a knock at the door, we look at each other both confused as to who would be at the door. Puck gets up and I follow him to the front door, he opens the door and standing in front of us is a man wearing a suit and holding a briefcase "Hello can we help you?"

"Yes, I am George Dunne and I am Shebly's Corcoran's lawyer, you two must be Lucy Fabray and Noah Puckerman"

" Actually I go by Quinn Fabray"

"And I'm Puck, call me Puck"

"Okay Quinn and Puck, it is nice to meet you two" he shakes both of our hands "May I come in?"

"Oh yeah sure" Puck steps aside so he can walk in, George walks over to the dinning room table and we both follow and sit across from him

"I am here in regards to my client Shelby Corcoran's death and in regards to what will happen to her daughter Beth"

"What's going to happen to her?"

"It states here in her will that if in her untimely death her child Beth will be left to the birth parents Lucy Fabray and Noah Puckerman"

"Both of us?" as soon as I say that me and Puck look at each other with the same confused look on our faces

"It states right here that she would go into the custody of both of you, she thought that it would be best that Beth went to both of her biological parents, didn't she talk to you about this?"

"The last time we saw her she made it very clear that she wasn't very keen on us being a huge part of Beth's life" I didn't include how she slept with Puck

"This puts me in a tough spot then, for right now it would be best for the child to be put in the care of people she is familiar with, it will help her adjust to the situation better. I have already spoken to children's services and already arranged it so that you two can pick her up this morning, I will give you some time to decide on what you think is best for the child whether that is to keep her or to find another family member that is willing to take her" he stands up and hands us a business card "That is a number where you can reach me, when you have came to a decision just call me so I can get all the legal papers in order, we will be in touch" with that he walks through the door and is gone, leaving me and Puck to make yet another decision for the child we placed up for adoption two years ago that will impact her life forever. Puck lays his head on the table and I stand up and start to pace around the room

"Did Shelby mention this to you at all, like ever?"

"No she didn't, besides when would she have mentioned this to me?"

"Oh I don't know, maybe after you two slept together. After was she ever like 'By the way, in any event where I died I have decided to leave Beth to you and Quinn' did that ever come up?" I make sure my words sound as spiteful as I meant them to be, even it being a year since they slept together it still burns my bones to know that happened between them.

"She never said anything to me, did she talk to you about it?" I laugh at his statement

"Yeah she told me, she told the person she hated that she finally after being a bitch to me about wanting our daughter back that she was actually going to somehow give us another chance to get Beth back"

"She didn't hate you"

"Really? So what do you call telling me to my face that I was never going to see Beth again?"

"She just wanted what was best for her"

"Oh yeah and by keeping me away from my rightful child was the best thing for her, look how well that ended up working out"

"You were the one who put her up for adoption"

"We both did"

"I didn't want to, I wanted her, I still do"

"No you are right, we gave up our rights to Shelby a long time ago, maybe it is for the best that we try and find one of Shelby's relatives to take care of Beth, she probably knows them better than she knows us anyway"

"That isn't what I want, we may be the only ones she has left, ever think about what would happen if that was the case?"

"We will have to figure that out later, right now we need to go pick her up" We both spend the next twenty minutes installing a car seat for Beth into the rental car and it was all done in silence, so was the drive to the office of CPS. When we got there we were lead into a room where we were told to wait, the room has toys all around and is filled with so many colors it is enough to make someones head hurt, we must wait for ten minutes and then finally the same woman who lead us to this room and told us to wait comes out holding Beth in her arms. She is just as I remember her, she has a full head of blond curls and my green eyes but her face looks exactly like Puck, she is so perfect, the woman walks over and hands Beth to me and Puck a bag that I can only guess is full of all the things that she needed last night. The last time I saw my daughter she was nervous around me and cried every time I held her but now she leans into me and wraps her little arms around my neck, holding onto me for dear life. I hug her back and close my eyes savoring the moment, when I open them I can see Puck smiling at us and suddenly I'm not so worried about everything anymore.
