Hello you fine people! I'm so sorry I haven't been able to update! This chapter was tricky to write and I have been super busy with summer classes! But I am done now! So I'll be finishing this story and my other story soon! The reviews I'm getting for this story are making me smile Thank you!
Rachel slowly started to wake up when she felt soft lingering kisses being placed on her neck. She smiles and presses her body closer to Finn's to show him that she was awake. She felt him grin against her neck and run a hand down her side.
"I love you", Finn said.
Rachel turns around and smiles up at him. She saw all the love he had for her in her eyes and a soft smile was graced on his features.
"I love you too," She whispers, running a hand through his hair. Finn turns his head and presses his lips to her palm. Rachel smiles and leans over to press her lips to his. Before she could pull away, Finn tangles his hands in her hair to keep her close and deepens the kiss by slipping his tongue into her mouth. A breathy moan escapes her mouth and Finn surprises her by flipping her onto her back. She squeals and Finn grins as he climbs on top of her. Rachel wraps her arms around his neck and reaches up to kisses him deeply as Finn presses her body to his as close as possible, Rachel sighs at the feeling of his skin against hers.
Finn pulls away and starts to attack her neck with kisses. Rachel feels a very tingly feeling in her abdomen as Finn's lips go across her collarbone and down to her chest. The ache between her legs was starting to the get even worse as she felt Finn's hands move all over her body.
"Finn's please," Rachel sighed. She could feel Finn smirk against her skin as he kisses his way back up to her lips. Finn kisses her, grabs her hands and places them above her head. Her legs part, and he settles between them.
Finn pulls away to start into her eyes. He smiles at her softly. "I love you Rachel," Finn says as she wraps her legs around his waist. With one swift of his hips, he pushes into her causing her to yell out.
"Oh god", she moans as Finn releases her hands so she can grip his shoulders.
"Baby", Finn says as he buries his face into her neck as he starts to move.
Rachel lifts her hips to meet with thrust and she kisses the side of his face as another cry comes out.
Finn turns his head to kiss her deeply and watches as Rachel's orgasm hits her like a train. After a few more thrusts, Finn comes and he drops his face into her shoulder.
They take a few minutes to catch their breath and then Finn turns over to his back and pulls Rachel with him. She rests her head onto his chest and presses a kiss on his chest, right over his heart.
"I have a question for you", Finn asks.
Rachel looks up at him and folds her hands up on his chest so she can look at him. "Yeah?"
"What are we going to do about your parents?"
Rachel furrows her eyes in thought and shakes his head. "I don't know. I know my parents wouldn't approve of you. I just-"
Finn reaches a hand up and presses it on her brow trying to sooth it out. "It's okay. Whatever you want to do, I'll be fine with. All I know if that I want to be with you."
Rachel closes her eyes and sighs as Finn runs a hand through her hair, feeling calmer at his touch. Opening her eyes, she says "I want to keep this a secret. At least for right now."
Finn nods. "Okay."
"Okay?" She asks softly.
Finn nods and gives her a half smile. "Okay", he confirms.
Rachel smiles and reaches up to kiss him deeply and runs a hand through his hair.
Then her eyes land on the clock on Finn's night stand.
7:30 am.
"Oh my god!" Rachel shrieks as she gets off of Finn, instantly missing his warmth.
She quickly finds her clothes while Finn just stares at her in confusion as he gets up from the bed to put his boxers and pajama pants back on. "What is it Rachel?"
Putting her shirt on, she quickly tells him "My parents are early risers. They're going to be up soon. I'm sorry Finn, but I have to go."
Once she is dressed, she makes her way to the door. But before she could get out, she feels his hand grab her wrist and pull her back towards him. Before she could say anything, his lips were on hers, kissing her deeply. Rachel wraps her arms around his neck and he holds her by her waist.
Pulling away, Finn smiles. "I'll see you later, okay?"
Dazed by the kiss, Rachel nods. "Okay," she say before giving him one last quick kiss.
Hiding this secret was going to be hard.
But it would be worth it.
The first thing Quinn realized was that she was not in her room.
The second thing was she was sleeping on the floor.
And the third things was a mysterious person poking her shoulder.
"Hey miss, are you okay?" she hears a young woman say.
Turning around slowly, she came face to face with a young black woman. She had seen the woman a few times. One being the time she had seen Puck and Finn in the staff quarters.
Groaning because her back hurt from sleeping on the floor, she slowly got up slowly as the black woman helped her stand on her feet.
The black woman stared at her for a moments before she said, "I've seen you before."
"You have?" Quinn asks.
The woman nods. "Yeah. You seem to have a thing for Puck. I heard you guys did great at the performance last night."
Quinn sighs and shakes her head. "Thanks. But please don't remind me of last night."
The woman stares at her in confusion. "Everything okay?"
Quinn nods slowly trying to avoid the reason why she was out so late last night and everything that happened. "Yeah, I'm fine."
The woman gives her a suspicious look. "Girl, I know you are not fine. If you were, I wouldn't have found you asleep on the floor. What happened?"
Quinn shakes her head again as she feels tears threatening to emerge. "I don't want to talk about it. I really just want to get over last night and go back to my room. Okay?"
The woman notices her change in demeanor and nods in understanding. "Okay, girl. If you want to talk, I'm here. I usually hang out with Kurt and Blaine in the staff quarters after my shift ends at 5. Feel free to come see us up there if you want."
Quinn smiles and offers her hand to shake. "Thank you miss….umm..."
"Mercedes."
Quinn smiles. "Mercedes. I'm Quinn. I'll see you around?"
Mercedes nods and smiles. "I hope so."
"Okay, and Rachel what would you like?"
"I'll just have the usual, Brody. Thank you", Rachel says while giving the menu back to Brody.
"Of course."
Rachel watches as Brody tosses a wink towards Kitty and rolls her eyes as Kitty giggles. Turning to Quinn, Rachel's eyes furrow in concern when she sees Quinn just staring down at her cereal. Rachel had made it back to the suite before Quinn and had pretended to be asleep (just in case her parents came in) and had saw Quinn quietly come in. She knew Quinn had spent the night somewhere because she was wearing the same clothes she was wearing the night before. Since then, Quinn had been pretty quiet all morning.
"Quinn?" Rachel asks.
Quinn looks up at Rachel with tired eyes. "Yeah?"
"Are you okay?"
Quinn gives her a fake smile. "I'm fine Rachel. Just a little tired."
Rachel doesn't know if she believes her. Quinn had always been known to hide her feeling a lot more than her. Rachel also wanted to know where Quinn was last night. She wanted to ask but asking at breakfast may not have been the most appropriate way to do so. She would wait later.
After breakfast was done, Quinn walks up to Rachel as Rachel goes to the exit.
"Hey where are you going?" Quinn asks.
Rachel turns and gives her a small smile. "I have a singing lesson. We'll talk later ok?"
Quinn nods and smiles. She could tell Rachel was in a good mood today. For what reason? It might have to deal with a one Finn Hudson. She could wish she could be as happy as Rachel.
Quinn decides to go meet Mercedes.
Walking around the staff quarters, she could see Mercedes sitting on a couch with a blond haired man.
Wow, he has really big lips.
She can hear Mercedes laugh as something the man is saying as she walks over to her.
"Hey", Quinn says as she approaches.
Mercedes turns her head and smiles. "Hey girl! What up? Sit down."
Quinn nods and hesitantly takes a seat. She really didn't want ruin anything between the two people sitting across from her.
Mercedes then leans over on her knees and gives her a knowing smile. "Breathe girl, you weren't interrupting anything between us. This is my boyfriend Sam," She says while gesturing over to her man.
"Hey-Hey", Sam says in a strange voice.
Quinn gives him a curious look. "Hi".
"Bill Cosby impersonation."
Quinn could only laugh. He really was good at it. "Oh that makes since."
"So. What brings you here?" Mercedes asks.
Quinn looks down at her hands, suddenly feeling more nervous. She knew she shouldn't be telling an employee this kind of things but she felt like she had no one else to express herself to.
Quinn looks up to see Mercedes whispering something to Sam's ear. Sam nods and gets up to leave the girls alone.
Mercedes turn over to face Quinn and gives her a smile. "I had a feeling you were going to need some one on one time with me. What's going on Hun?"
Quinn takes a deep breathe, trying to keep her tears at bay already. She hadn't felt this much hurt in such a long time. "I made a mistake," Quinn whispers while her lip quivers, while feeling one tears fall from her eye. So much for keeping the tears away.
Mercedes gives her a look that Quinn can't really name. Just as Quinn was about to open her mouth, Mercedes interrupts. "This wouldn't have to deal with Puck would it?"
Quinn gives her a look of surprise. "What? Why you do ask?"
Mercedes gives her a knowing look. "Girl, the first night I saw you, you were dancing with Puck. I also heard from Finn, that Puck was talking about you all the time. He was talking about how awesome of a dancer you were and how kind you are to your sisters and how he admires you."
"I don't he thinks that now." Quinn scoffs.
"What happened?" Mercedes asked
"We had a deep conversation and we danced. I had feelings for him and….I told him." Quinn sighs. "I feel like I pushed him too far." Quinn sniffs.
Mercedes puts a hand on her arm with a small frown. "Oh Quinn…"
"I feel like an idiot. I shouldn't have kissed him." Quinn then lost it right there. Tears streamed down her cheeks as Mercedes held her hand.
After a few minutes Mercedes handed her a tissue and spoke again. "You know, I've known Puck since high school. He's a big player. But girl, let me tell you. He's been acting all weird today."
"How so?" Quinn asked.
"He's been quiet. Puck is never quiet. He was quiet all morning. Not even Finn could get him to talk."
Quinn's eyes widen. Did she make him upset?
"I didn't mean to hurt him or push him too far." Quinn whispers.
Mercedes nods. "I know Quinn. I can tell you have deep feelings for him."
"I need to fix this. Do you have any ideas?" Quinn asks.
Mercedes sighs. "I say give him some space. Let him come to you. If I know Puck, he will go to girls that he cares about."
"So you just expect me to wait?" Quinn ask curiously.
"If he cares about you, he'll come around. But from what I've seen and heard from both of you, I don't think it will take long. Just be patient with him." Mercedes confirms.
Quinn could only nod. She really hopes Mercedes is right.
Rachel smiles as she walks to her lesson with Finn. Well, Finn said it wasn't a lesson but he wanted to talk to her about something in the ballroom where they had met.
"Hey!" Rachel yells as she enters the ballroom. Finn was standing on the stage trying to adjust the microphone stand.
Finn smiles as she comes up on the stage.
"Hey Baby," he whispers as he pulls her into his arms. He places a soft kiss on her lips. Rachel smiles and gives him one more as she runs a hand through his hair.
"So what did you want to talk to me about?" Rachel asks.
Finn smiles as he lets Rachel go and hold her hand. "I wanted to tell you about a talent show we do at McKinley's."
"Oh yeah? What about it?" Rachel asks, suddenly feeling nervous. She had a feeling what Finn was going to say.
"I think you should do it," Finn says with a smile.
"Together?' Rachel asks not looking at him.
Finn then lifts her head to make her look at him. "No. I think you are more than ready to do a solo of your choice."
Rachel's face turn into a look of horror and she backs out of Finn's arms. Shaking her head, she starts to walk away. "No, no, no, no. Finn, I don't think I'm ready. I haven't sang in front of an audience by myself in a long time. I'm sorry, I can't."
Just as Rachel was about to walk off the stage, Finn quickly grabs her wrist to stop her.
"Rachel, baby. You're ready. Honestly, you don't need any more training from me." He says as he turns Rachel around to look at him. He wraps his arms around her waist. His heart breaks to see tears going down her face. "Hey," He says softly. "What's with the tears?" He ask while reaching up to wipe them.
Rachel shudders a breath and she shakes her head. "Finn, I haven't done a solo since my dads died. Yet alone, do a duet with you that night. I messed up on that one lyric. I was so embarrassed," Rachel cries softly as Finn pulls her into a tight embrace pressing kisses to her hair and forehead every so often. Rachel clings to him like he was her lifeline.
After a few minutes, Rachel pulls away as Finn presses another kiss to her forehead. "Thank you, Finn." She says softly.
Finn smiles as he cups her cheeks in her face. "No need to thank me Rach. Anytime."
"It just seems very scary to me. The fact that I haven't performed by myself with my dads there to support me. Russel really doesn't care about the arts as they did. I don't want to disappoint him. Especially if this becomes my career choice." Rachel whispers.
Finn looks at in confusion. "Career choice? You want to do a career in music?"
Rachel nods. "Before my dads died last winter, I auditioned for New York Academy of Dramatic Arts. NYADA for short. It's in New York. It was always my dream to go but now that their gone, it's hard not having my support there. I never told my mom or Russel. Like I said, Russel doesn't care about the arts. He thinks it's a waste of time."
Finn then gives her a tense stare and suddenly Rachel feels like a kid who got into trouble. "Rachel," Finn breathes. "You need to go to New York. Your dads would want you to be happy and it seems to me that you're not happy here."
"Finn I'm still waiting to hear back from them. I don't even know if I got in. There was a delay with the admissions board", Rachel says quietly.
"But you will. You're a real star. And you need to shine", Finn says.
Rachel blushes. "Do you really believe in me that much?" Rachel asks.
Finn smiles and hold her tighter. "More," he simply says.
Rachel gives him a smile and reaches up to kiss him. Just as they are about to kiss, an all too familiar voice of Jessie Saint James is heard.
"Finn! Are you in here?"
Rachel and Finn quickly separate from each other and Finn starts to look through some books and folders of music he brought.
Jessie then comes from backstage, looking suspires to see Rachel by the microphone. "Umm hey Rachel, taking singing lessons? I could teach you some things" Jessie jokes.
Rachel gives him a polite smile and shakes her head. "That's very polite Jessie but no thanks."
Jessie nods and turns to face Finn. "So Finn, as you know, I have been put in charge of the final act for the talent show. And I know that you always do the final act with the rest of the entertainment staff but I was thinking we could shake things up a bit for the final number."
Rachel watches and sees Finn turned really excited. "Really? Well, I got some ideas. See I've been talking to Puck and Santana about splitting up the final number up. Like a couple of our people doing a duet or solo and then a group number. We could come up with something-"
Jessie puts his hands up to stop him. "Whoa, whoa hey there Finnocence slow down. Let's not too excited. I was actually thinking about just changing the group number. I know you guys always sing Don't Stop Believing as your final group number but I was thinking about maybe you guys doing Paradise by the Dashboard Light as your final group number. Apparently the older couple like that song a lot and we need to please them." Jessie explains.
Rachel watches as Finn eyes grow dark in anger and frustration, his enthusiasm long gone.
"We've always done Journey. The younger audience members probably haven't even heard of the other one." Finn explains in a low voice. Rachel could tell he was trying to not to let his anger get the best of him.
Jessie sighs and shakes his head. "Well, if you want to, you can do Journey. But maybe next summer we'll find somebody else who is willing to do what we ask."
"Alright. We'll do Dashboard," Finn says.
Jessie shrugs his shoulder. "I'm just saying. It would-"
"Sure Jessie! That sounds fine." Finn say in a loud sarcastic voice. Finn then breaks eye contact from Jessie and starts to look through some more books.
Jessie then makes his way over to Rachel and puts a hand on her shoulder. "Yeah, he's tough but the ladies still seem to like him," Jessie says as he walks away.
As soon as Jessie is out of sight, Rachel makes her way back to Finn and rubs her hands on his tense shoulders.
"You okay?" Rachel asked.
"I hate him," Finn murmurs quietly.
"What?"
Finn then turns around with fury in his eyes. "I hate him. God damn punk wouldn't know any talent if it hit him in the face!" Finn yells.
Rachel jumps back a little startled. Finn notices the action and tries to relax.
Putting his hands on her shoulders, he softly says "I'm sorry. I just can't stand Jessie."
"Well, why do you let him push you around like that? He's just a person like everyone else," Rachel asks.
"Oh, like the way you let your step-dad push you around? Why can't you step up to him? Too scared?" Finn snaps back.
Rachel takes another step back with tears in her eyes. Finn then realizes what came out of his mouth. He takes a step forward. "I didn't mean that", he whispers. Rachel only responds by walking away but he follow her. "I didn't mean it, baby."
The term of endearment stings bit after it comes out of his mouth. Turning around, Rachel softly says. "You don't know anything about my step-dad like you think you do. I could get disowned by seeing you. I don't want to feel less alone than I already do. I think I'm going to let you cool down for a bit. I'll see you later." Rachel then leans up and presses a kiss to his cheek and then walks out the door.
As soon as the door closes, Finn couldn't help but kick the chair that was right next to him.
Now he had to make things right with Rachel.
Quinn couldn't help but sigh.
She knew Mercedes was right about waiting for Puck to come to her. She done her part. Now it was up to him.
For the past week, Quinn had been hanging out mostly with Mercedes, Sam, Kurt, Blaine and Rachel. She had seen Puck from time to time but whenever they would make eye contact, Quinn would break away. It hurt too much.
She never did see the pain in Puck's eyes every time she would ignore him.
Quinn also had noticed Rachel was acting more distant during the past week. Rachel didn't have to say anything. It was written all over her face.
At the current moment, Quinn was sitting on a bench by the lake by McKinley's. Her train of thought is ruined by the sound of footsteps behind.
"Mind if I sit with you?"
Quinn froze. She knew that voice. Not looking around, she just nodded her head.
Puck came into her view after a second and he took a seat right next to her. They both stared at the lake for what felt like forever. Quinn tried to fight every fiber in her being not to start the conversation that needed to happen.
"Mercedes told me that you might be here", Pucks says quietly. Quinn nodded prompting him to continue. "Quinn, why are you avoiding me? I kind of miss you."
Quinn felt her blood boil. Is he really that clueless? Did he really forget what happened that night when he left her alone?
"Are you really that stupid? How about you explain to me how big of an ass you were that night when you walked out on me!" She snaps.
She didn't even see Puck flinch at her burst.
"Q, you don't understand. Girls and I never really had much of a serious connection."
"Why is that? Because you take advantage of them just to get into their pants and leave them out to dry? Or is it because you're scared of your own feelings?" Quinn snaps.
"Q-"
Quinn then stands up to glare at him. "You listen to me. You need to grow up Puckerman. I'm not one of those girls that does hook ups or messes around like that. I felt something deep for you that night. I could tell by the look in your eyes that you have hurt and vulnerability that you're scared to let out. But keep doing what you're doing, you'll never have a girl that cares of you."
"Quinn, I-"
"No! I'm not done talking. If you're going to act that nothing happened that night, then I don't want to see you at all. You're a Lima loser and you're always going to be."
Quinn then runs off.
She didn't even see the look of hurt in Puck's eyes after she stormed out.
"Come in!"
"Hi," Rachel says softly as she comes into Brittney's room. Brittney was lying down on her bed in her pajamas. She was petting a cat that was lying on her side. Finn was sitting was right to her, Rachel stares at him for a second but then focuses her attention back on Brittney.
"Hi," Brittney whispers with a smile on her face.
Rachel takes a seat on the other side of Brittany. "You look so much better," she comments.
"You just missed your step-dad. He's very nice. He gave Lord Tubbington a piece of cheese for me, "Brittney says as she strokes her cat's ears causing the cat to purr loudly.
Rachel gives her a small smile.
"So I heard from Finn that you did very well at the performance," Brittney comments.
Rachel turns to look at Finn who is giving her a small smile.
"Did he now?" Rachel asks.
Brittney nods. "He says you were amazing. He was really impressed and that he never heard anyone sing as great as you."
Rachel shakes her head. "He was better than me. I messed up on one lyric. He made it through without one mistake."
"Rachel-"Finn begins.
"No! Finn, it was true!" Rachel says loudly.
"Stop!" Brittney yells. "For a couple, you guys fight a lot."
Rachel and Finn turn to Brittney in horror.
"How did you know?" Rachel asks.
"You guys couldn't be more obvious. The sexual tension you guys are giving each other right now is a dead giveaway." Brittney says.
"Brittney, I-"Finn begins.
"You guys need to listen to me right now," Brittney says as she sits up. "You both can get in huge trouble. Finn, I told you not to get hooked up with the guests here. You know that never works out."
"Brittney, we know what we're doing," Finn states.
"I just want you two be careful. If you guys got caught, Finn you could lose your job and Rachel probably won't ever be allowed to leave her house," Brittney warns.
"We know Brittney. But I love Finn and he loves me. I think it's worth it," Rachel says quietly trying to keep tears at bay. She might have been still mad at Finn but she knew she loved him.
After seeing Brittney, Rachel and Finn walk out to the pad.
"Rachel, wait." Finn says as he grabs her hand.
Rachel turns to face him and before she could say anything, his lips were on hers. She immediately wraps her arms around his neck and melt into his embrace as he wraps his arms around her waist. After a few seconds Finn pulls away.
"I'm sorry," They both says in unison.
"Let me go first. Finn I'm sorry about making you keep this a secret. I do plan on telling my step-dad and mom once the summer is over," Rachel explains.
"I'm sorry too. I didn't mean to snap at you. I've had Jessie on my ass since the summer. I apologize for pulling you into it," Finn says softly.
Rachel smiles and reaches up to cup his face. "I forgive you. Do you forgive me?"
Finn smiles and turns to kiss one of her palms and her heart swells. "Yes," he simply says.
Rachel smiles and reaches up to kiss Finn.
"Hey Quinn, would you mind putting the napkins on the tables please? We have to go meet Kurt for a meeting"
Quinn smiles and takes the napkins from Blaine. Since her outburst with Puck, Quinn had offered to help around the kitchen. It was really nice to get her mind off of Puck and get to hang out with Blaine and Mercedes who worked in there a couple of times a week. She only got closer to both of the as the week grew to a close.
"Hey."
Quinn turns around to see Brody standing there in his server outfit. "Hi," Quinn quickly says as she starts to put napkins on each table. She really didn't like Brody. Yet alone be in the same room as him. Now that she knew his reputation, she knew it was best to keep her distance.
"I thought I'd find you here," Brody says as he makes his way over to her. "You don't have to do that. A girl like you shouldn't do that."
Brody then reaches over and covers her hands that hold the napkins.
Smacking his hands away, Quinn starts to put down the napkins again to another table away from Brody. "That's okay Brody. I don't need your help. I volunteered to help. So go away," Quinn says politely.
Brody doesn't get the message.
Quinn starts to feel his cold, hard hands on her arms rubbing them gently. Quinn's breathe tenses at the unwelcoming gesture.
"Come on Quinn, stop it right now." Brody says.
"Stop what?"
"That you have feeling for me. I see the way you look at me. You pretend that you don't like me but I know better."
Quinn tries to shake his hands off but they remain tight on her arms. "Brody, please. Stop this. You're dating my sister."
She doesn't see Brody shrug his shoulders. "It doesn't bother me if it doesn't bother you." Brody whispers in her ear.
Brody then presses a kiss on her neck and Quinn breaks away from Brody grasp. Steeping away from Brody, Quinn glares at him. "You stay away from me, you man whore." Quinn growls.
Brody smirks and walks towards her until she pinned against the wall. "Stop lying. You want me."
Quinn shakes her head. "No. Brody I-"
Brody then cuts her off with a kiss. His strength is no match to hers. Quinn is completely pinned between the wall and Brody. She then feels his hand come up and cup her breast and he squeezes it tightly.
With all of her strength, Quinn breaks her lips away from his and she smacks him across the face causing him to break away from her. "Stay away from me you man whore!"
Quinn runs away with tears streaming down her cheeks.
She had to see Mercedes. There was no way she could go to her family with this drama. It would be so embarrassing.
Running into the staff headquarters, she finds Mercedes sitting at the bar with Sam.
"Mercedes!" She cries as she makes her way over to her.
Mercedes turns and smiles when she sees Quinn but the smile quickly goes away when she sees her distress.
"Quinn, girl what's wrong?" Mercedes says as she stands up to face her.
Quinn doesn't say anything but just throw her arms around her in a tight hug. She feels Mercedes wrap her arms around her as sobs break free thru her.
"Shhh, Hun. It's okay. It's okay." Mercedes soothes as she rubs her back.
Quinn shakes her head and only holds onto her tighter. She doesn't see Puck come up from behind her. His eyes are furrowed in concern.
Mercedes pulls back and grabs Quinn's hand and has her sit on a couch. "Okay, tell me what happened."
"I-I was h-helping p-put –n-napkins o-on t-the t-table a-and B-Brody t-touched m-me," Quinn shudders out between sobs.
Mercedes face turns into a look of horror and she pulls Quinn into another hug as Quinn breaks down again. "It's okay, Quinn. You're safe."
Puck, who was leaning against a wall to listen to their conversation, quickly stormed out of the staff headquarters before Quinn could see him.
Puck quickly makes his way to ballroom. He knew Brody was working there that night.
"Hey!" Puck yells when he enters the room.
Brody turns around and smirks. "Puck, what's-"
Before Brody could even finish, Puck presses him against the wall. His arms are against his neck and Puck growls at him. "I heard what you did."
"Did what?"
"To Quinn. I'm going to tell you right now. You better stay away from her. She's not interested in a man-whore like you," Puck commands.
Brody smirks. "Since when would you know? You never took girls seriously. Given your past. How is Quinn so different from them?"
Puck pushes him against the wall even harder causing Brody to groan in pain. "She's everything that girl needs to be. Tough. Caring. Loving. Responsible. Now I'm going to tell you one more time. Stay. Away. From. Her."
"Man, I'm just trying to have some fun like you. Her sister is cute but she's too much of a kid. Quinn's a woman," Brody smirks.
It was then that Puck lost his control. Pulling one hand back, he lands a punch on Brody's donkey face.
Make that three punches.
Puck then drops him to the ground.
Puck then leans down and growls. "Stay away from her or I will kill you," Puck growls.
Puck then storms out.
He needed to make sure Quinn was ok.
Most importantly go and try to fix things up with Quinn.
"Here Quinn, drink this," Mercedes says as she gives her a glass of water.
Mercedes had taken Quinn back to her room. Kurt and Blaine went back with them too.
"I shouldn't have let you alone Quinn. I'm sorry," Blaine says.
Quinn shakes her head. "Don't. You didn't know. I didn't know he was going to do that." Quinn whispers.
"Still Quinn, we're sorry." Mercedes says as she takes a seat next to her.
A knock is then heard on Mercedes's door.
"Come in!" Mercedes yells.
"Hey," Puck says as he enters the room. Bending down to look at Quinn right in the eye, Puck says "Can I talk to you outside for a minute?" Seeing Quinn is still in shock from what happened that evening, Puck offers his hand for her to take. "I promise Quinn, we'll just be on the porch. You're safe."
Quinn takes and deep breath and grabs his hand tightly, happy that she didn't flinch.
Puck then leads her out of the room and onto the porch. Turning to face her he says "I heard your conversation and you came in."
Quinn could only nod.
"I went to talk to him. Let's just say, he won't be bothering you anymore. If not, I'll beat his ass again."
"Again?" Quinn asks softly.
"He said some things about you that weren't true and I just couldn't let him get away with it."
Quinn stares at him in wonder. "Why did you confront him? You didn't have to." She asks quietly.
"Because I care about you more than I let on," Puck says. "Quinn, I'm sorry I've been a huge ass to you. You're like my best friend."
Quinn feels her heart break a bit in disappointment. Only a friend? Puck sounded like he was going to say he liked her more than just a friend.
"I know you're still mad at me and I hope you forgive me. Because Quinn, I miss you. Can we be friends?"
Quinn had a thought to say no. But then again. She really had missed Puck a lot. Maybe they could be friends even though that night they kissed still haunted her mind.
Without another thought, Quinn nods. "Yeah, I'd like that."
Puck smiles and gently pulls her into a hug. Quinn wraps her arms around him in return, feeling a warm feeling spread all over her skin.
She never wants to let go of him.
Maybe they could be friends. Maybe Quinn could forget that night. Maybe.
Just maybe.
There we go. Now both couple of are good terms right now. Don't kill me about Quick though. I got something in mind for them. The next chapter is going to have a lot of angst. Just a heads up. Again, I'm sorry for the long wait but I wanted to update on my birthday! Which is today! Keep reviewing! They are love to me!
