Chapter 2
The Next Step

Quinn had an open notebook in front of her, with a few lines scribbled down, and was chewing on her pen, as someone dropped down in front of her. Quinn shut her notebook with a snap
"Why are you sitting in a corner of the football field ?" Puck said as he lay on the floor trying to catch his breath.
"Because, I can't participate in my gym class."
"Oh..."
"Why are you here Puck ? Don't you have some tackles to practice or something?"
"We just wrapped up, Coach gave us half an hour off to do whatever."
"Oh, so should I be kneeling in front of you, since you decided to bestow your precious time on me ?"
"Quinn..you know it's not like that. I have something to tell you."
"Go on."
"Um well, I was thinking about, you and me, and I was wondering if you could let me help you out with the baby and all that."
"I see....was this after or before you came up with the brilliant idea to throw a Slushee in my face?"
"Quinn, I know what I did and how I acted was wrong. But, I would really like to get a chance to support our baby. If you change your mind, please tell me." with that statement, Puck got up and went back to join his team.

Quinn looked at the clock on her phone to realize that it was almost time for class, she got up and put her notebook in her bag, and starting walking across the field towards the main building, while thinking about what Puck had asked her. By the time she got to class, she had made a decision.

As she slipped into her seat, she snuck a look at Puck who's head was bent down as he scribbled furiously on a piece of paper. She tore a piece of paper out of her notebook, and scribbled something on it, and threw the paper towards Puck, where it hit him square in the nose. She fought back the urge to giggle, and turned to the front of the class as Mr. Schuester started his lecture, without noticing the 3 pairs of eyes that were practically burning holes in the back of her head.

After class was done, Quinn stayed behind to discuss something with Mr. Schue and when she walked out she realized that Puck was still waiting outside for her.
"What now Puck ?" she said with a hint of annoyance.
"Hey don't kill me. But I just wanted to thank you. I won't disappoint you. Promise. Coming from me, that's probably not much to you, but yeah."
"It's fine Puck, although if you don't stick by what you said, I will hunt you down," before she could finish the sentence, Puck interrupted her and said, "What? Get that dude to knock me out ? Oh and by the way, you owe me a linebacker."
"That dude has a name thank you very much. And your line backer can go suck a dick."
"No comment on that last statement, but yeah who is that guy anyways ?"

Quinn told the entire story to Puck, which took up almost the entire lunch period. Right after lunch, they had class together so they went together, and spent most of the class passing notes to each other.

After school, Quinn walked into Glee to find quite a few people staring at her, and before she could question them, their questions started.
"Are you and Puck getting together ?"
"Why were you and Puck together at lunch?"

"Hi to you too guys." Quinn said with a small smirk.
"C'mon Quinn, you HAVE to tell us ! You can't just not tell us."
"Watch me." Quinn said with the same smirk still on her face, as she took out a book and started reading it.

Santana, and Brittany looked at each other and then at Puck, who had just walked in through the door. They assaulted him with the same questions, and he just raised his eyebrows and walked by Quinn to sit behind her, opened his backpack, and handed it to her. "You forgot this in class earlier."
Quinn went slightly wide eyed for a moment, took the notebook from Puck and said cautiously, "Did you read it ?"
"Why would I want to read your notebook Quinn?"
"Um nevermind."
