Thanks for the reviews, I really appreciate them! This chapter is a lot shorter than the last one, but it helps the story progress. Hope you enjoy!
Quinn couldn't move. In front of her was Beth, her Beth, being held by someone who wasn't her.
Shelby had made it to a shocked Mr. Schuester, who's mouth was still gaped open as he looked at the infant in her arms. Quinn felt a hand touch her forearm and let go of the breathe she had been holding. Tears had started to form in her eyes as she looked down to see it was Mercedes' consoling hand on her arm. Quinn had no idea what to do. She knew she needed to get off the stage, but her body wouldn't move. She wanted so desperately to turn to Puck, but she couldn't allow herself to do that. Puck on the other hand couldn't take his eyes off Quinn and Beth. He needed to know Quinn was okay and he needed to see what his baby girl looked like. She was beautiful. Golden blonde hair with tight curls that graced her head along with a little green clip to match her green dress. God she looked like Quinn, and he was proud to say that she resembled him to. She had his light brown eyes, and her nose was a perfect mixture of his and Quinn's. He was so proud to know that this little girl was his daughter, and he was happy everyone got to see the beautiful girl he created.
Quinn had finally gotten herself up and ran off the stage. Puck immediately stood up when he saw her running, but stopped short when he saw Sam in front of him get up as well. He had had enough at this point and yelled "Evans, I think we both know who should go after her." Sam looked at him. He was a little shocked seeing as Puck had never said anything to him regarding Quinn, and Quinn never said anything of Puck. He took that as his answer. "And I think we both know she wouldn't want you to be the one running after her."
Puck couldn't believe this guy. His daughter was out there right now, something real and this prick had the balls to think Quinn would actually want HIM to come after her instead of himself. Bullshit. He knew that what him and Quinn shared was nothing like what Quinn and Sam shared. It wasn't you're average high school relationship, it was special, no matter how pussy it sounded. He loved Quinn, and Sam was just a distraction from the real thing Quinn wanted. He was sure of it. It was then he knew he would never let Sam even touch her again. It was his turn finally, he had waited long enough and had grown quite a bit in the process.
"Don't push me, Evans." Puck threatened, glaring at Sam as he walked past him, quickening his pace towards Quinn. Shelby called out to him, but he disappeared into the curtain.
He found Quinn sitting on a bench backstage, legs curled up to her chest. She didn't look up as he sat next to her. After a few silent moments he placed his arm around her shoulder and she surprised him by leaning into his chest. They sat in silence for a while more. Quinn didn't know what to say anymore. She knew why she hadn't given Puck the time of day, and now the reason was in her school.
Puck was the one to break the silence. "She looks like you.". She was reminded of the day in the hospital and what he had said to her. 10 months later, and they're sitting together backstage, Quinn confused, cheeks wet, and Puck enjoying the feel of her warm skin on his. "I couldn't look at you because I saw her." she whispered. Puck closed his eyes, his cheek resting on her head. "People think I don't care about her." she whispered again. "They don't know shit." he told her. "I needed things to be back to normal. I needed to gain what I had lost or else I wouldn't be able to make it through the day. I needed a distraction, but I didn't realize I had changed to much to go back." she explained, her voice heavy with threatening tears. Puck's arms was now wrapped around her waist and her hands were over his. "I miss ice cream and maple syrup." Puck said, his cheek still rested on her head and his eyes still closed. She chuckled and that was enough to satisfy Puck for the next 50 years. He held onto her a bit tighter and even dared to kiss the top of her head. She took a deep breathe, "Let's go see our daughter."
I hope you guys liked it. I'll probably update sometime tomorrow. Please Review! :)
