Everything was coming together perfectly. Puck and Quinn were on their way to Lima and everyone else would come the next week.

While they all weren't always on the best of terms, Puck and Quinn were both happy to be seeing each other's parents. Quinn had become really close to Puck's mom and sister when she lived with them, but after the baby for awhile, things were tense. However, when Puck and Quinn got back together in high school everything was good again. Even after all the times they fought and broke up, Quinn and Puck's sister, Jess, always maintained a close relationship. Her and Quinn would exchange emails, write letters, and, even share some phone calls. Quinn liked having someone who was like a younger sister, because after her older sister moved to Florida for college, she missed that relationship. Puck and Quinn's mom had a tumultuous relationship. After she found out Puck was the one who got Quinn pregnant, she was less than thrilled, especially since he was Jewish. After the baby, when Puck kept calling and trying to be there for Quinn, their relationship was better. However, after the whole break up in high school, her mother's positive opinion about Puck turned into "I told you he was no good" being the main focus. But Puck was able to work his way back into her good graces by expressing his sincerest apologies over his actions and after Quinn moved to New York, he showed up numerous times at her house to check up on Quinn to make sure she was okay.

They were in Lima and extremely happy for the upcoming events in their lives. Their first stop would be to see Quinn's mom and the next day they'd go to Puck's mom's house.

They arrived at Judy Fabray's and Puck grabbed the bags of stuff for Quinn's mom, as Quinn knocked on the door.

"Quinny! You're here! I've missed you so much, come in" Judy said as she hugged her daughter.

"Hi mom!" Quinn walked into the house to set down some things, "I'll go help Puck with some of the stuff we brought."

"I got it all babe, don't worry" Puck said as he entered the home.

"Noah, it is so nice to see you" Judy walked up to Puck and hugged him.

"It's nice to see you too" he answered politely before walking to be next to Quinn.

"Well, sit down! I'd like to hear about everything!" Ms. Fabray said as she sat down on a recliner in the living room. Puck and Quinn obliged.

"What do you mean everything?" Quinn asked.

"Well, the last time I talked to Noah, he was moving to New York to start over. The last time I spoke with you, you were working without a boyfriend. And now, you two are engaged and getting married soon" she looked at them both.

"Well" Puck began, "Quinn and I went through a lot the past few years and recently we've both realized just how much we love each other."

"Yes, and Puck and I realized we've already wasted so much valuable time trying to act like we don't love each other, that we want to do all that we can to be together fully and forever." Quinn added as she placed her hand inside Pucks.

"I am very happy for you both." Judy said smiling, "I know the three of us haven't always been on the same page and we've had our moments, but I am very happy Quinn has you in her life Noah."

"Thank you Ms. Fabray and I am lucky to have Quinn in my life, she is amazing" Puck replied, looking at his fiancé and smiling.

"Now, about the wedding" Quinn's mom began, "I know you've decided against being married in the church and your plan is to do it in Appleseed Park; but are you having a priest do the ceremony?" she asked.

"Puck and I both agreed we want to incorporate both Christian and Jewish traditions into the wedding because we know how important it is to you as well as his mom. So we are having a Priest and a Rabbi at the ceremony." Quinn explained.

"We want everything to go smoothly, so we are trying to make you both happy" Puck said smiling at Quinn's mom.

"Well, as long as Quinn gets the wedding she wants and is happy, I will be fine." Judy said, "Just make sure my grandchildren are brought up knowing Christianity, every child should." She didn't mean it to be an insult, but it sounded like a direct one.

"Mother! One the way we raise our children is up to us. Two, that was incredibly rude of you and Three, we aren't having children for awhile." Quinn tried to set her mother straight as Puck sat shocked.

"Well, Quinn, I lost one of my grandchildren and I have no clue how they'll be raised and I don't want to have that happen again" she replied.

"DO NOT bring our daughter into this" Quinn yelled.

"She isn't your daughter honey, you gave her up!" her mother spat at her.

Quinn stood up and looked enraged, "Ya know, I knew one day you'd throw this back at me but I never figured it be so close to my wedding. I should've known all these years were full of lies." She grabbed her bags and ran to the car.

"Puck, I didn't mean to upset her, I want Quinn to be happy" Judy said.

"Well you have a hell of a way of showing it" Puck got up and ran out to leave with Quinn.

When they got in the car, Puck let Quinn vent a little before speaking.

"You're mom's just being stupid Quinn. She's wrong and you and I both know we did the right thing" he rubbed Quinn's hand.

"No, she's right" Quinn said in tears, "We gave up our daughter so we could still be kids and now none of us will ever know her."

"Quinn, we were sixteen years old and if we would have kept Beth, her life would have been ruined, you and I would have probably killed each other, and she would be living in an unstable environment. We did what was best for her and your mom knows it! She just feels the need to always be right and didn't want to back off." Puck was trying to calm Quinn down.

"But maybe it would have been ok. Maybe you and I would have stayed together and would have been married by now" she argued.

"I was an ass back then and you and I both know I would have made you upset because I'd hook-up with other girls while you and Beth were at home." Puck reasoned.

"But are you sure my mom isn't right?" she asked.

"Your mom isn't right Quinn and you and I both know that." He said, pulling her hand up to his mouth and placing a gentle kiss on it.

"Thanks for being amazing baby!" she wiped away her tears and smiled at him.

He smiled back at her. "So, do you want to go back to back to the rental house?"

"How about we go see your mom and Jess! I haven't seen them in so long and I know they'll make me feel better." She responded.

"Okay, lets go then! My mom will be happy to see you!" Puck replied as he drove to his old house.

They pulled into the driveway and both of them were excited. They parked and ran up to the door, knocking on it excitedly.

"Jeesh, hold on I'll be there in a minute!" Jess yelled from inside the house as she ran to open the door. "OH MY GOD!" she yelled when she saw Quinn and standing at the door.

"Hey loser, miss me?" Puck said.

"Quinn! I missed you so much!" Jess said pushing passed Puck and nearly knocking Quinn over with her hug.

"I missed you too Jess! How are you?" Quinn said as the girls walked inside.

"I'm good! I thought you weren't coming until tomorrow." she said.

"We weren't, but we missed you and couldn't wait to see you!" Quinn said, sitting down next to Jess.

"Hey Jess, thanks! We bring you stuff from New York and you don't even say hi to your big brother" Puck said messing with her.

"Please, I know Quinn had to pick out whatever you bought me, you just called me a loser and I saw you in like February when you came to visit I haven't seen Quinn, since, well you graduated!" Jess said.

"You were here in February?" Quinn asked.

"Yeah for a weekend to talk to my mom and see Jess for her birthday" he said sitting down with the girls.

Quinn looked at Jess "When we talked on your birthday you just happen to forget Puck was here?" Quinn said laughing, "And I thought we were close!"

"Noah doesn't- well didn't know you called and we both kept in contact" Jess said looking at Puck, "I must have forgotten to tell you Noah, whoops" she said smiling.

"So let me get this straight, Quinn's been calling you on your birthdays every year since graduation? Wow, she didn't even call me a couple years in a row" he said jokingly.

"Not just birthdays, we email and write and talk quite a bit if you must know" Jess said.

Quinn looked at Puck, "Sorry! I couldn't just leave her without my knowledge. I mean especially with you as a brother, how would she ever know how to do make up or go on dates."

"Jess isn't dating until she's thirty!" Puck said, "But, I think it's cool you guys have been talking, especially because it means you guys must've talked about me a lot" Puck said smirking as if he knew everything.

"Yea right! We hardly ever mentioned you" Jess said before turning back to Quinn, "So, how's work going? Did the kids like your new dance?"

"Yes! They loved the music and everything. I love work it's been great." Quinn answered as Puck went to the kitchen to get a drink. "So, how's Dillon? Was the date good?" Quinn tried to be quiet, but Puck heard her.

"DATE? DILLON? Nope not happening, you are way too young to date!" Puck said as he barged back into the room.

"Puck, she's sixteen! She isn't too young to go on a date" Quinn came to Jess's defense.

"The hell she is! Sixteen is way too young!" he fought.

"Noah, do you remember what you were doing at sixteen? Do I need to remind you?" Jess spoke, pulling Quinn over and motioning a baby bump over her stomach.

"Yeah Noah, remember what you were doing at 16?" Quinn added, trying not to giggle.

"How is it that you are laughing right now Quinn! And it wasn't just my fault you got knocked up miss 'I'm fat/hurry up and do it'. If I recall it was just as much your fault as it was mine" Puck argued.

"Oh sure, now it's my fault that you fucked your best friend's girlfriend and told her to trust you when you said you had protection but really didn't" Quinn fought back, placing her hands on her hips.

Jess was enjoying the scene when Puck spoke. "Well, maybe I was bad at sixteen but I don't want my sister dating now!"

"Well you can't stop her Puck! She'll be fine, the kids a nice guy." Quinn said trying to calm Puck down.

"HELLO! I was sixteen once, I know what sixteen year old guys want; especially with pretty girls who are innocent!" he responded.

"I'm going to pretend like you never said that. But, not all sixteen year olds are like you were Puck. I've checked the kid out, I know he's ok." Quinn stated.

"And how the hell do you know that?" he asked.

"Because I called Will and Emma to ask about him and they both said he was a good kid and neither one of them heard about him being how you were." Quinn answered, finally calming Puck a little.

"You called the guidance counselor and my coach?" Jess asked.

"Of course I did! They were really great to me when your brother and I messed up and I knew they could tell me if this kid was anything like he used to be." Quinn answered.

"Gee thanks" Puck said shaking his head.

"I said used to be Puck, We all know you are a great man now, but you weren't always. Besides, I'm keeping tabs on who your sister is dating, so be nice" Quinn said.

"Carry on" he replied, allowing Quinn and Jess to talk.

"Anyway" Quinn said, "How was the date?"

"It was good! We went to Breadstix and went roller skating! He was a total gentleman" she looked at her brother and stuck out her tongue, "Nothing like Noah was."

Quinn chuckled and Puck huffed. "Well that's good Jess! Are you guys going out again?" Quinn asked.

"Maybe. He asked me out sometime this week but I told him you guys were coming so it'll have to be postponed. But he was really nice about it" Jess was smiling.

"Well, congratulations! I remember when Finn and I started dating it was so exciting!" Quinn said.

"Must have been really great considering you cheated and ended up with me" Puck said slyly as he rushed to Quinn and planted kisses all over her.

"Lucky me!" she said playfully rolling her eyes. She turned and kissed him.

"Seriously, get a room." Jess said, standing up and walking away, "I'm going up to my room, don't be too loud!" she shook her head.

"We won't!" Puck yelled. Quinn hit him and yelled, "Come back! I have stuff for you!"

Jess came running down stairs and Quinn gave her a bunch of stuff from New York. It had candles, new clothes, some of Quinn's old clothes and a bunch of other gifts Quinn just had to buy her. Jess, Quinn, and Puck all hung out watching TV and talking about everything and anything. They decided to make dinner for Puck's mom who would be back from work in a little bit. Jess made salad, Quinn prepped food, and Puck did the actual cooking. They made pasta bathed in a garlic wine sauce tossed with vegetables and cheeses. They also had kosher sausage and biscuits Jess made. When Jules came home, she was thrilled to see her guests.

"Noah! I am so happy to see you" she said dropping her things as she walked in, to rush and give Puck a hug.

"Mom I missed you! It's good to see you!" he kissed her cheek and pulled her in tightly. This is the Puck that Quinn loved to see; him being soft and loving.

Jules turned to Quinn, "Quinn, dear, it's been so long! You look beautiful! How are you?" she asked.

"Thank you, I'm great! It's been way too long. It's really nice to see you again." She replied. They hugged and continued their hellos while walking into the kitchen.

"Noah, I thought you weren't coming until tomorrow?" she asked, "By the way thank you for dinner, it is delicious."

"Your welcome ma, and we weren't supposed to be here yet, but our plans changed" Puck said looking at Quinn sadly.

"Did something happen Quinn?" Jules asked sincerely concerned.

"Just my mom being, my mom. She brought up our past." Quinn answered.

"Oh, I see. Well, even though she isn't close to being my favorite person at all, especially since she abandoned you when you needed her most; she has taken steps to changing. I know you guys must be mad now, but you'll be fine." Jules said trying to reassure Puck and Quinn.

"Mom, she was going off on Quinn about giving up Beth and how we took away her grandchild" Puck chimed in.

"I understand Noah, but just because we have all accepted it and know everything that happened, she is still trying to cope and understand. She may not go about it the correct way but she may be having difficulties." Jules said.

"Your mom is right, Puck. As much as I never want to see her again because she was so rude, she probably is still dealing with it all. I mean she wasn't here for me like you and your family, so she probably doesn't know what we went through." Quinn was getting over her anger.

"I just want you to be happy baby" Puck said grabbing Quinn's hand under the table.

"I'm marrying you, of course I'm happy" she said.

"Speaking of" Jules interrupted their love fest, "Please tell me how this all happened! One minute Noah is upset he hasn't talked to you in years and next you guys are getting married." Puck looked at Quinn embarrassed that his mom revealed how he pined for her. Quinn just smiled and they both explained how they finally ended up together.

Their night was definitely better than their morning. They stayed talking late but left for their rental house so they'd be rested for their bachelor/bachelorette party tomorrow.
