CHAPTER 7

Quinn was going insane. Her mother was running around the house making sure everything was set. She managed to get Quinn to dress nicely for the occasion but now she couldn't find the camera. Quinn was holding the wedding present her mother had gotten.

"Mom." Quinn called pointing to the coffee table and there the silver camera sat.

"Oh." She blushed and grabbed the camera and they were on their way.

Rachel was placing center pieces on the tables at the reception area while Santana and Brittany made sure the reefs at the end of the seating rows were perfect. Puck was decorating the alter.

Joanna was looking up from the diagram Kimberly, her friend and the bride, had given her.

The blonde walked over to her and tapped her shoulder. "Hey, where's Liv?"

"On her way." Kimberly said hugging her. "Thank you for doing this in such short notice."

"I owe you. I need your opinion on something though." Joanna said reaching into her pant pocket. "Do you think she'll like it?" Joanna asked opening the velvet box.

"OH!" Kimberly gasped. The ring was simple. Liv didn't like extravagant things. She'd accept them but barely use them. "She'll love it."

"Thanks. When are we going to start?" Joanna asked pocketing the ring.

"Once you are finished setting up and all my bride's maids are here. I could care less which family makes it. I know my friends are here." Kimberly answered.

Joanna laughed. "God forbid the Fabray clan that is coming know you're marrying a Jew." Joanna teased and Kimberly smacked her shoulder.

"Shut up. I need your help with something." Kimberly said leading her to the room where she and her other bride's maid were getting ready.

"What's up?'

"My maid of honor isn't in her dress." Kimberly said holding out the navy dress.

"Ok. Who do I have to yell at?" Joanna asked and Kimberly gave her a look. Her mouth dropped open and she shook her head.

"Please? You're my best friend."

"Oh…no." Joanna shook her head. "You know I don't do being part of a wedding unless it is my own or I'm part of the staff." She looked down at her uniform. "Oh look I am part of the staff."

"Jo, please?" Kimberly started pouting and Joanna looked everywhere but at her. She locked eyes with the pleading and pouting blonde before letting out a heavy sigh. "Fine." Kimberly squealed and dragged her behind the divider and helped her into the dress.

Kurt arrived with Blaine and smiled as he over looked the clothed trail to the gazebo where Kimberly and her fiancé Josh were getting married. He saw the many flowers and smiled.

"This is gorgeous."

"Thanks." Joanna grumbled from behind him as she shoved her dress clothes into the van and slammed the door shut.

Rachel walked up to her and squealed. "Is that what I think it is?"

"If you want your pay check and share from this job it isn't." Joanna said grabbing her sunglasses off the dashboard through the open window. She slid them on but before she could get them on all the way Kurt stopped her.

"You'll smear the mascara on the lens and it will look wrong."

Rachel squealed again. "You're wearing make-up and I mean that by you're wearing more than usual."

"If you don't stop squealing I'm firing you and sending you home." Joanna warned as two slender arms wrapped around her waist.

"I lost ten bucks thanks to you." Liv teased kissing Joanna's cheek.

"How so?"

"I bet that she couldn't get you in that dress."

"She pouted and used the eyes." Joanna grumbled walking away. Liv chuckled and followed already in her own bride's maid dress.

Quinn walked up with her mother and was surprised to see Rachel, Puck, Santana and Brittany there.

"Hi Quinn!" Brittany beamed fixing a loose bow.

"Hi." Quinn said.

"I'll get us seats." Judy said walking away.

"What are you guys doing here?" Quinn asked.

"Working." Rachel answered as she snapped a quick photo with her phone.

"Rachel Barbra Berry if you treasure your Funny Girl play bill you will keep that to yourself." Joanna warned without looking up from centering a center piece.

Rachel giggled and Quinn smiled at the sound. It was like beautiful wind chimes.

"Working as what?" Quinn asked.

"Joanna there." Santana pointed to Joanna who was talking with Puck. "Is the florist and maid of honor. She gave Britt and I jobs a few weeks ago."

"What is Kurt and Blaine doing here?" Quinn asked.

"Rachel invited me and Puck gave Blaine his plus one." Kurt answered irked that she was talking as if he wasn't right beside her.

"Florist?" Quinn asked and they nodded.

'Could it really?' Quinn slapped herself mentally. It couldn't be Rachel. That is just hoping too much.

"You all work together?" Quinn asked.

"Yep." Brittany beamed.

Santana shrugged. "I don't know how much support I'll have after telling my parents about me and Britts so I could use the job."

The music started playing and they went to their seats.

Joanna was grumbling under her breath and Liv leaned over. "Behave and act like you're enjoying this and I'll make it worth your while." She whispered and Joanna stood straight and smiled.

Santana decided to speed things up. She had taken the 'wooing phone' as they had dubbed it and sent Quinn the photo of the corsage with a message.

Quinn looked up from her sketch book and pulled out her phone. Her eyes widened at the image of her prom corsage then her face fell into one of confusion. She read the message.

'Do you really think he could have picked one this beautiful for you without help?'

Santana grinned when she saw that the message had its desired effect. Quinn was tense and her brow was scrunched up.

When Kimberly began her descent down the aisle Quinn put her phone away and grabbed her pencil and began to sketch away.

By the time the man pronounce them man and wife Quinn had it done. She had captured the love in her cousin's eyes perfectly. She opened her bag to grab the frame when something caught her eyes. That wasn't there before. She thought pulling out the gardenia and read the attached note.

'The gardenia means you're lovely and secret love. I'm sure he didn't know that.' Quinn put the flower and note back into her bag as the applause died down and grabbed the frame. She placed the drawing inside and secured it.

Quinn found Kimberly at the table with her husband and bride's maids and their dates.

"Hey Quinn."

"Hey. I know mom put both our names on the wedding gift but I wanted to give you this as my own personal one." Quinn said handing the frame over.

Kimberly gasped. "Thank you Quinn, this is gorgeous."

Quinn blushed. "Thanks and you're welcome." Kimberly hugged her and Quinn returned the hug before walking away.

Her phone vibrated and she pulled it out.

'Would he even know what matched your eyes?'

Quinn was getting more aggravated with her admirer by the second. Apparently her admirer helped Finn. So the one way to figure out who her admirer is, is to ask Finn who helped him pick out the corsage.

She spotted Puck and Rachel on the dance floor and glared as they danced together. Brittany and Santana were beside them with Blaine and Kurt. She looked away and saw Rachel's cousin and another girl she noticed as one of the other bride's maids. Her eyebrows jumped to her hairline when she saw the two share a chaste kiss and ignore all the glares of the close minded Fabrays that had managed to make it. She rolled her eyes and turned to a blank page in her sketch pad and began sketching how beautiful Rachel looked in the black and white dress that she remembered was the dress Kurt had her wear after the makeover she asked him to give her.

Rachel walked up to Quinn and held out her hand in the blonde. Quinn looked up shutting her sketchbook. "Can I have this dance?"

Quinn felt her stomach twist and smiled. She placed her bag and sketch pad down on the chair and took Rachel's hand letting her lead her to the dance floor.

"How long has your cousin known my cousin?" Quinn asked taking Rachel's right hand in her own and her left going to her waist.

"Since high school apparently." Rachel answered placing her left hand on Quinn's shoulder.

They danced to the relatively slow song and continued asking questions.

"How long have you been working for your cousin?" Quinn asked.

"On and off since she inherited the shop." Rachel answered. "But over the summer Noah and I were bored and Joanna needed help with her girlfriend off doing an internship at Lima General and her schedule hectic." Rachel explained.

"I thought Puck was hosting parties all summer since his mother and sister was off visiting his nana?"

"He was but parties cost money Quinn." Rachel giggled and Quinn blushed.

"Of course."

Both girls were so wrapped up in each other they were oblivious to Brittany and Santana swiping Quinn's sketchbook.

"I feel like I'm mind raping her." Puck said as they continued to flip through the book.

"Yeah S. These are very private." Brittany pouted. Now she felt bad for helping take it.

"She captured everything." Santana said as she turned the page then shut it. "I'm putting it back." Santana said making sure no one was watching and made her way over and placing the sketch book back.

The guest began to leave and Quinn went to gather her things and that was when they heard the shouting.

"You married a Jew!"

"No one invited you!" Kimberly screamed.

Rachel, Kurt and Blaine joined her and they walked toward the commotion.

"You didn't think I would hear about this?"

Quinn tensed up before continuing towards the commotion. She knew that voice.

As they approached they could see Russell Fabray seething. Judy was standing beside Kimberly and Josh holding Josh back with Liv's help. Brittany was holding tight to Santana. Santana never liked Mr. Fabray and he scared Brittany.

"What are you doing here?" Quinn asked and Russell looked at her shocked at first and then he sneered at Judy.

"You turned out daughter into a drug addict punk?"

"I let her be herself!" Judy shouted.

"I chose to do this." Quinn said. "And you weren't invited."

Russell sees Rachel and scowls. "You let the faggots' daughter come? And I wasn't invited?" Russell hissed.

"Hey!" Quinn shouted. "That's my friend! And you're drunk!"

"How dare you accuse me!" Russell took a step forward but a hand on his chest stopped him.

"I have a rule about violence and swearing at weddings." Joanna started. "But I would happily throw them aside to kick your rear into the ground. But you are the bride's family and the bride is my best friend. Otherwise I would be in this maid of honor dress and if you say another bad thing about my uncles I will hurt you."

"You're Hadley's granddaughter aren't you?" Russell asked and Joanna nodded. "I heard your uncles' filth rubbed off on you." He sneered and Joanna raised an eyebrow daring him to say more.

"Leave her alone dad!" Quinn yelled pushing him away. "Begin gay is not a disease nor is it a choice!" Quinn shouted shoving him to emphasize her words. "We didn't wake up one day and decided we wanted to be gay! You aren't wanted here!"

"We?" Russell hissed recoiling as if having been burned.

"Yes dad! I'm gay and proud! I spent so many years denying it because I was scared of you! But I'm not scared of you anymore. And Neither is mom. We are so done with you!" Quinn screamed. Judy looked on with pride and Rachel was looking at her with hope. Others were shocked and others amused.

"You are no daughter of mine!"

"And you're no father of mine. I'm ashamed to call you my father."

"Goodbye Russell." Judy said taking Quinn's hand and leaving.

"Don't turn your back on me!" Russell tried to charge forward but Santana, Joanna and Puck shoved him away.

"Bye Uncle Russell." Kimberly said taking Josh's arm and walking away. "Do your worst." She whispered as she passed Joanna.

"I'm sure Puck has better upper body strength." Joanna said pulling out her phone and calling 911.

"Quinn, you have a visitor." Judy called through the door.

"Who?"

"It's me."

Rachel.

She shoved her sketchbook under her pillow.

"Come in."

The door opened and Rachel stepped in. "Hi. I wanted to make sure you were ok."

"Well I'm fine. Tired but fine." Quinn answered honestly.

"I know it must have been hard to come out that way." Rachel said carefully and Quinn chuckled.

"It was. But once it was out there it felt as if a heavy load was lifted from my shoulders." Quinn said. "Thanks for checking on me Rachel, but I'm really tired." She really didn't want the diva to leave but she did want some time alone.

"I'll see you at school." Rachel said before leaving.

"Thank you." Quinn said once Rachel reached the door. "For coming here and not judging me."

"You said it yourself Quinn, we're friends. Friends don't judge." Rachel said walking out of the door.

Judy met her on her way. "Thank you for stopping by dear."

"You're welcome. Have a good night Ms. Fabray."

"It's Judy dear."

"Have a nice night Judy." Rachel said walking out of the house.

Quinn stood by her window watching the small brunette get to her car. Rachel stopped and looked up at her and waved. Quinn smiled and returned the wave with one of her own. Rachel got in her car and drove off.
