When they all gathered together for dinner, it was as if nothing had changed since graduation. Rachel and Puck weren't arguing and Quinn and Puck were able to be friends. They all stayed up way too late that night; singing music, playing games, and watching movies. Quinn knew Puck and she were only ever going to be just friends, but she didn't care, as long as they were in each other's lives.

The next day Quinn woke up to her phone ringing.
"Quinn, hurry up Rachel's water broke in the middle of the night last night and she's going to have the baby!" Finn hung up before she could respond. She woke up and got ready as fast as she possibly could. When she arrived at the hospital, she nearly sprinted to Rachel's room. When she got there, Finn was pacing in circles, Puck was on the chair reading, and Rachel had her eyes closed.

"So, are we ready to have this baby?" As soon as Quinn spoke, the tension was released from the room.

"Quinn" Rachel was almost in tears, "You made it! I am so happy to see you."

"Of course, I wouldn't miss this for the world." She sat on the bed next to Rachel. "How're you doing? What'd the doctors say?"

"I'm doing alright, it just hurts so bad! How you did this at 16 I have no idea! But the doctors said it'll be awhile."

"Try not to think about the pain Rachel, I know it hurts but just think about how happy you'll be once your baby boy is here!" She patted Rachel's hand.

"Thank you for coming Quinn" Rachel said.

"No problem, but get some rest now, you're going to need it." Quinn said, getting off the bed to give Rachel more room.

The hours passed slowly. But after almost fifteen hours, Benjamin Matthew Hudson, was born.

After Quinn and Puck gave Finn and Rachel awhile to rest and be with Benjamin, they went in to meet him.

"Oh my god, Rachel, he's beautiful" Quinn said staring at the bundled up baby boy.

"He's perfect and I think he wants his aunt to hold him" Rachel smiled and handed Benjamin to Quinn. She rocked him and held his tiny little hands in hers.

"He's gonna be a heartbreaker like his uncle" Puck said as he walked up behind Quinn to see the baby.

"No, he is going to be a gentleman, like his father," Quinn responded sweetly before anyone could say anything.

"Can I hold him?" Puck looked at Rachel.

"Of course, Noah!" Quinn put the baby into Puck's arms and watched him look over the baby. The entire day was perfect. No matter how many fights they all went through and no matter how long they'd been awake for, at this moment, everything was perfect.

"Ah!" Rachel yawned in the night, "Finn, will you please go get the baby? We are leaving for Hawaii tomorrow and I want him to be well rested so your parents don't have trouble with him. Also, I need my beauty rest."

"Of course, but only because we're getting married soon and it's your time to relax and prepare." Finn said as he kissed Rachel's forehead.

Benjamin had just turned seven months and it was time for the wedding. Rachel didn't plan on having a baby there, but they had their wedding set so quickly, they couldn't change it when they found out she was pregnant. Luckily, with Quinn's help, Rachel was able to lose the baby weight so she could fit into her gown.

Rachel and Quinn met up in the morning for a final work out before they jetted off to Hawaii for the wedding. Rachel's dads were so amazing they paid for everything, which included not only the wedding and the beautiful suites for everyone, but a two week stay there for not only Finn and Rachel, but for Quinn, Puck, Carole, Burt, and a few others after the wedding. Of course, this would come in handy now so they could have their honeymoon as well as vacation with their friends all at once. This also meant that Rachel and Finn would have both sets of grandparents to watch the baby for them.

"Quinn, make me sweat today! This is the last chance I have to get into the best shape!" Rachel was excited as her and Quinn stretched in the dance studio.

"I promise Rachel, this'll be a good workout." Quinn stood up and they began their work out. They started with simple aerobics, sit ups, and light weight training. Then they began dancing all types of things from ballet to hip hop. Two hours later and they were both dead!

"Thanks Quinn" Rachel said breathing heavily.

"No problem, working out means I'm going to look even better in my bikinis!" Quinn laughed as she packed up their things.

"Oh yes, the many new bikinis you bought! Now, are you looking to impress anyone?" Rachel stood up and threw her towel at Quinn.

"If you're talking about who I think you are, the answer is no! Puck and I have had no drama since Benjamin was born and I'd like to keep it that way!" She threw the towel back.

"Mhm, but the major shopping spree we did, just happened to occur right after I told you Puck and Candice broke up? I'm sure it was a coincidence."

"Rachel, I was going to go shopping anyway. And I'm not even supposed to know they broke up yet!"

"I can't help myself sometimes! Finn told me and of course you had to know right away! Quinn, you know this means a second chance for you guys, so just accept it." Rachel tried to reason with Quinn as they walked to her car.

"This would be like our tenth chance Rachel, not second. And I am content with no drama and just living life how a normal twenty-three year old would."

"Well two problems Quinn. One: you turn 23 when we're in Hawaii, so that part is invalid and two: normal is boring!"

"Whatever, you say Ms. Bride to Be." Quinn looked out the window.

"I wonder why they even broke up." Rachel said. "Finn said Noah didn't tell him why either."

"Well, that's his business isn't it?" Quinn smiled.

"Please, all of us tell each other everything so there is no reason to hide anything." Rachel turned facing Quinn, "He didn't tell Finn when they broke up either, in case you were wondering."

"I wasn't, but can we please not talk about this anymore!" Quinn turned up the radio and both girls started belting out any song that came on.

Luckily, they had everything packed and ready to go so they were able to relax for the day until they had to go to the airport. Puck and Finn got all the luggage checked in while Quinn and Rachel sat reading magazines. Unfortunately, the rest of their family and friends wouldn't be flying in until tomorrow, so they didn't have much to do on the 10 hour flight; after all, they all hung out so often, they already knew everything that was going on with each other. Benjamin was flying in with Carole and Burt in so Finn and Rachel could get the wedding's final touches set up.

Finn and Puck were awake for almost the entire ride, but Quinn fell asleep on Puck's shoulder about an hour into the trip and Rachel barely stayed awake passed boarding. When the girls were awake, they all played cards, read, watched some movies, and talked. Eventually, they all fell asleep and before they knew it they arrived in Honolulu.

The ride to the hotel was beautiful. They drove passed the ocean, through some gorgeous towns, and when they arrived at the hotel, they thought it was paradise. Quinn and Rachel went up to the rooms to unpack the luggage while the boys walked around the hotel. They got near the pool and decided to sit at the bar it had.

"So, you excited to do this man?" Puck asked, "I mean can you handle Rachel for the rest of your life?"

"Haha, absolutely!" Finn answered, drinking out of his cup, "I love her and there's no one else I'd want to be with."

"Well, good for you man!" Puck took a big gulp and asked the bartender for another.

"Yeah, so what happened with you and Candice? I thought you guys were good." Finn asked.

"Yeah, we were good but she started talking about taking the "next step" and I'm not there." Puck answered.

"I get it. It's weird, I mean Rachel talked about marriage since our senior year of high school, so I was used to her wanting it and talking about it. But you and Candice were together for a year, that's usually when the next step happens." Finn explained.

"I didn't really see us going there" Puck replied, "Plus, we were only together for about seven months."

"What?" Finn asked, "Why haven't you told any of us? That was like right after Ben was born, what happened?"

"Honestly" Puck looked at Finn, "Seeing you guys have a family and the way you and Rachel looked at each other; I just knew I'd never look at her that way. But I did tell you."

"Dude, you told me last week!" Finn punched Puck in the arm.

"At least I told you. Look, you guys were never going to accept Candice anyway and you know that. You guys have always had someone else in mind." He explained.

"But we would have gotten over that if we knew you were in love. We are your best friends." Finn tried explaining.

"I wasn't in love, so it's okay. And I'm going to tell everyone while we're here, just so you know." He looked up at Finn who looked guilty before adding, "But I'm sure you already told Rachel."

"Dude, I couldn't contain myself; she has that affect on me." Finn said.

"Bros before hoes dude, come on" Puck joked.

"Puck, that motto ended in high school when you got with Quinn, so I don't wanna hear it." Finn joked back. "But I told her not to tell Quinn."

"Well, let's hope she kept her mouth shut for once." Puck said, "Because I want to tell Quinn."

"I'm sure she didn't tell her so don't worry. Not like it matters who tells her, she's gonna be stoked." Finn tried to withhold that last part, but he couldn't.

"And why will she be so happy" Puck asked, although he knew the answer.

"Dude, you know Quinn was devastated seeing you with someone else in something more than a hookup."

"I guess" he looked away; "You think she still wants this?" Puck pointed at himself being the cocky person he used to be.

"Please Puck you're not all that" Finn shook his head, "Why does it matter anyway?"

Puck took a sip out of his beer before saying, "Did I mention I told Candice about Quinn and me." Finn looked at him with a shocked face urging him to elaborate. "Yeah, the night I ended things, before I did, she was asking about my past and how it was all a mystery and in order to be in a good relationship we'd have to tell each other everything."

"And?" Finn asked knowing there had to be more.

"I told her I was an ass and cheated with my best friend's girlfriend. I thought she'd figure out it was Quinn because I know she knew Quinn's story; but she didn't, so I continued. I told her the girl ended up going back with her boyfriend but then found out she was pregnant. Finally, she put it all together."

"So what'd she say?" Finn was interested.

"At first she was confused. She kept saying stuff like 'Oh My God no, YOUR PUCK? I'm so stupid? How did I not know?' But I told her Quinn didn't want to me to say anything. Then it just got weird."

"Why?" Finn urged him to answer.

"She told me that Quinn told her everything and I mean everything like her living with me and stuff you and Rachel probably don't even know about us. Then she told me why Quinn probably didn't want her to know who I was." He paused and drank his beer.

"Dude, stop stalling and talk." Finn interrupted Puck's drinking.

"She told me Quinn use to always talk about how she was the one who pushed us apart, and she blamed herself giving up Beth, for me cheating on her. She told me Quinn cried a lot and almost everyday talked about how she'd always love me and want us to be together."

"Sounds like someone I know" Finn sipped his beer, obviously talking about Puck.

"I know." Puck looked away.

"Wait, what? 'You Know' that's it?" Finn asked.

"Dude, chill. After we got done talking and she started talking about what comes next for our relationship, I realized she wasn't going to be in it because I would never feel for her how I feel for Quinn. So I broke up with her. You, Rachel, Quinn, and I were all getting along and having so much fun, I didn't even bother to tell you guys but it's not like you'd ask about her anyway."

"How you feel for Quinn?" Finn asked.

"You picked up on that? Maybe you're not as dumb as we all thought." Puck laughed and put his drink down, "Yes, feel. I still love Quinn, always have. You know that, I just assumed she and I would always have this back and forth, love/hate thing and I didn't want to do it. But I can't pretend I don't love her anymore."

"Dude, you have to tell Quinn this!" Finn said.

"I know, that's why I don't want you going back to tell Rachel any of this because it's something Quinn and I need to talk about."

"I won't tell her anything. When do you plan on telling Quinn?" Finn asked.

"Well your wedding is in three days and her birthday is a week from then. I have something planned for her birthday, so probably this weekend some time."

"Looks like this vacation is going to jam packed." Finn answered, "Good Luck with it man, I know it'll turn out awesome. And thanks for waiting until after the wedding."

"Um, your welcome? Why does that matter?" Puck asked.

"If you were to tell Quinn tomorrow or Tuesday, she'd tell Rachel. That means they'd be celebrating and our wedding would probably consist of saying 'I do' and then her and Quinn nonstop discussing every moment between you and Quinn and how she'd always known this would happen."

"Yeah, those two get a bit extreme at times." Puck responded standing up next to Finn to go back to the rooms.

"But, I guess that's part of the reason why we love them" Finn said as they began walking.

"I guess so" Puck answered, "That's probably why we'll never stop either."

"You got that right Puck, You got that right."

They went back to meet the girls and help them unpack, if anything was left. Finn kept his promise and didn't tell Rachel a thing and all four of them went out to dinner. When they got their drinks, Puck proposed a toast:

"Here's to new beginnings, love, and a bright future!"

They all clanked their glasses and continued their conversations. Little did Rachel and Quinn know that Puck was also talking about his love for and future… with Quinn.
