Leroy and Elijah stood in the doorway. Leroy had a huge smile on his face and was flinging himself into the apartment, while Elijah stood silent, his eyes plastered to their hands.
Quinn noticed this which made her, give Rachel's hand a tight squeeze. Rachel pulled her hand away so she could clasp her arms around her father's neck.
"What are you guys doing here?" she asked.
"It was actually Quinn who called us, and of course we jumped on the soonest flight" Leroy answered smiling.
Rachel looked at Quinn affectionately and mouthed the words thank you. Quinn nodded and was suddenly being pulled into a huge bear hug, by the tall black man.
"Hello Quinn" she said smiling at her.
"hey Mr. Berry" she said, returning the smile.
"Quinn how many times do I have to tell you" He began but was cut off by Quinn lifting her hand. "Leroy" she corrected.
"That's my girl" he said laughing.
Rachel stepped towards her father who was still standing in the door way. "Hi" she whispered.
He gave her a weak smile. "You look gorgeous baby girl" he told her.
Rachel smiled and pulled him into a sensitive hug. "Thank you for coming" she told him, and he gave her a nod fallowed by a warm smile.
Quinn put out her hand to Elijah. Hello, Elijah" she said smiling.
Elijah never lost his gaze from Quinn's eyes. "Hello Quinn" he muttered. The blond felt his grip go tighter on her hand then contract, there was something in his eyes piercing into Quinn, something cold.
Quinn turned to Rachel. "Shall we go?"She asked.
Rachel nodded.
The two men waited patiently while Rachel and Quinn put on their coats and shoes. They walked down the dim streets of New York City until they reached a small low key restaurant that was surprisingly packed.
"Reservations for Fabray" Quinn told the lady at the front.
Rachel raised her eyebrows."you made reservations?" she asked.
"I wanted to make you happy" Quinn told her blushing.
Rachel leaned forward and kissed her cheek. "You make me more than happy" she whispered.
Quinn placed her hand to her own cheek, feeling Rachel's lips still lingering against her skin. She flushed and looked away meeting the eyes of Elijah, who was glaring directly at her.
"Right this way" the women said, and motioned for them to fallow.
They were finally seated at a small table in the back. Elijah and Leroy on one side with Rachel and Quinn on the other.
They all chit chatted away until their food arrived.
Quinn ordered pasta, and Rachel ordered vegan Lasagna (her favourite). Leroy got a steak while Elijah got simple burger and fries.
"So Quinn, how do you like New York?" Leroy asked her.
Quinn chewed her food before answering. "Great, I'm actually starting work tomorrow" she told him.
He smiled. "Oh really? What are you going to be doing?" he asked her.
Quinn felt slightly embarrassed. "Well in high school I took a few courses, and I always liked cameras so I applied for a job at a photography place" she told him.
"That's fantastic Quinn, I'm sure it means a lot to Rachel that you moved out here" he announced and looked at his daughter.
Rachel smiled happily and she put her hand on Quinn's thigh under the table. Quinn shivered, which Rachel must have noticed because her smile widened.
The diva looked at Elijah who was toying with his food." So how long are you in town for?" she asked.
He looked up to Leroy then back at Rachel. "I think were staying for tonight, tomorrow then leaving the next morning" he told her.
Rachel nodded." I look forward to seeing you guys before you leave" she told him. He replied with a nod.
"So Rachel, how do you like Quinn's new apartment?" Leroy asked.
Quinn looked up at Rachel, and Rachel bit her lip.
"You mean our apartment?" she asked.
Both men's eyes went wide.
"We moved in together when Quinn came to get me, she kind of blindsided me" she told them smiling.
Leroy hopped up in down in his seat.
Quinn glanced over at Elijah who was staring expressionless at the two girl's hands that were carelessly linked together on top of the table. She fought back to urge to scream at him.
"Quinn bought me a kitty" Rachel told them.
Leroy looked at Quinn and shook his head. "She's got you whipped" he told her.
Quinn's mouth dropped open. "does not" she huffed. Rachel poked her ribs, and Quinn smiled passionately at her girlfriend before squeezing her hand.
"yup, whipped" he repeated.
Elijah groaned from the other side of the table. All eyes turned to him.
Quinn tried to calm herself for Rachel's sake but she couldn't, she had enough.
The blond dropped Rachel's hand and slammed her fists on the table." Elijah, a word please?" She asked, smiling politely.
He nodded. "Sure Quinn".
"Good" she murmured and stormed off towards the exit.
Quinn got out of the restaurant faster then she expected. It wasn't for a few seconds until Elijah made his way out.
"Listen" Quinn demanded.
"You can go right ahead and hate me, you can give me little icy stares and huff and puff when I'm around, but shes your daughter and she sure as hell does not deserve to be treated like that. She loves you so much Elijah, did you know that the night we came down to visit, when she stormed off and cried, she was ready to leave but I convinced her not to for your sake, so that she could spent more time with YOU" Quinn yelled.
He looked at her shocked.
The blond breathed heavily calming herself. " Look, Mr. Berry I want to get along with you I do, but all I want for you to know is that I am completely in love with your daughter and I will spend the rest of my life protecting her" Quinn whispered.
She expected him to yell or forbid Rachel from seeing her but instead she saw a hand outstretch in front of her. She instantly took it in her own.
"You're a good girl Quinn Fabray, and I'm happy Rachel chose you" he told her, and walked back into the restaurant.
Quinn stood outside, stunned for a few minutes, trying to replay in her head what happened.
When she finally got back to the table, Elijah and Leroy were deep in conversation while her eyes met Rachel's.
Quinn sat down and turned to her girlfriend, propping her elbow on the table.
"What was that?" Rachel asked concerned.
The blond trailed her finger along the chair until she met the flesh of Rachel's leg, making the petit girl stiffen.
"Long story, I'll explain later" she told her.
Rachel nodded and placed her hand on Quinn's face. "Are you okay?" she asked.
Quinn nodded and found herself pushing her face into Rachel's hand eagerly, wanting more.
"Good" Rachel whispered.
They turned back to the table to find both men staring at them.
"Rachel can I talk to you for a minute?" Elijah asked.
Rachel chewed the inside of her cheek." yes" she said and began standing.
Quinn pushed the palm of her hand down on Rachel's thigh, not wanting her to go.
Rachel leaned down and kissed the top of her head. "Its okay" she mumbled into the blond's hair.
Once they were out of sight Quinn dropped her forehead against the table. She felt a hand touch her head slightly." Don t be upset, he can be very stubborn sometimes" Leroy told her.
Quinn lifted her head and gave the man a weak smile. "I just don't want her to hurt anymore" she told him.
"I know sweetheart, and I'm glad that your there for her when I can't be" he told her smiling.
Rachel closed her eyes and sighed. Elijah stood in front of her. " I just wanted to tell you, I'm happy for you Rachel, I know I don't show it, and I can be very obnoxious but Quinn is a good person and I'm very happy we have her to take care of you" he told her.
Tears stung at her eyes. She wanted him to hold her and tell her everything was going to be okay.
He stepped forward and hugged her." I'm going to make it up to you, for what I said the last time I saw you" he whispered with a fresh tear in his eye.
When they got back to the apartment, Rachel was very silent.
They walked to the elevator and Quinn pressed the button. "What's wrong?" she asked.
The diva shook her head." nothing, I'm just a little tired" she told her.
Quinn knew Rachel far too well, to know she was bullshitting.
They got onto their floor, and Quinn looked at Rachel.
The diva tried to hide her face but it was too late, she already had tears falling down her face.
Quinn picked up her girlfriend and began walking down the hallway.
"What are you doing?"Rachel asked.
"Taking my girlfriend to our apartment" she told her.
They walked into the apartment and Quinn took her right into the bedroom, dropping her onto the bed with a thump.
"Talk" Quinn demanded.
Rachel just stared at her.
"I know something's bugging you, now tell me so I can fix it" she insisted.
Rachel bowed her head. "When I was a little girl, my daddy used to bring me a glass of warm milk and hold me telling me everything was okay, when I was sad. I just want him to hold me and tell me he loves me" Rachel told her.
Quinn leaned slightly, so she could stroke Rachel's hand.
"Rachel he loves you okay, I know he's having trouble accepting this, but I know he 's going to be fine" she told her.
Rachel nodded, and Quinn pulled her into a hug,
"Besides, I'm here" she whispered and smiled.
Rachel tilted her head." What did you and daddy talk about?" she asked.
"I yelled at him" Quinn told her ashamed.
The diva laughed. "You yelled at him, saying what?" she asked.
" basically that he's going to have to live with the fact that I'm in your life" Quinn smiled." and that I was going to protect you for the rest of my life" she added.
Rachel's eyes widened." you want to be with me for the rest of our lives?" she asked silently.
"If that's what you want, then yes" Quinn told her.
"I'll love you forever" Rachel responded.
The two eloped in a tight hug. "You know, I never thanked you for the other night" Rachel told her.
Quinn thought about it for a second then her mouth formed a perfect O.
"Rachel you don't have to do that" Quinn told her.
Rachel shook her head." I want you to feel the way I did" she told her.
Quinn nodded her head nervously.
Rachel pulled off Quinn's dress and unhooked her bra. Quinn bit her lip feeling exposed.
Rachel stared at her body in awe. Quinn suddenly became very self conscious and tried to cover herself.
The diva pinned Quinn's arms down to the bed. "No, Quinn your beautiful" she told her.
Quinn took off Rachel's dress, then bra and discarded them on the floor.
The two looked at each other not with the look of lust, but more with the look of love.
Rachel toyed with the hem of Quinn's underwear. The other night, Quinn had been so overwhelmed that Quinn didn't have time to feel nervous, this time was a whole different story.
Quinn put her hand on Rachel's. "I'm scared, I've never uhm, I haven't had this happen since I got pregnant" Quinn whispered feeling embarrassed.
Rachel's mouth dropped open. "wait, you haven't had an orgasm since high school?" she asked.
Quinn nodded." Puck tried to pursue me, but I always said no" Quinn told her.
Rachel smiled." I'm surprised you lasted this long" she said.
"Did you and Finn?" she asked.
Rachel nodded." only once and it wasn't half as good, as the other night" she told her.
"Ready?" Rachel asked her.
Quinn took a deep breath and nodded.
The diva pulled of Quinn's underwear, and the blond automatically tensed.
"I won't hurt you" Rachel whispered, kissing her forehead.
Quinn grasped the blankets around her. "I trust you" she told her.
Rachel kissed her deeply, moving down her neck, and stopping at her pulse point.
Quinn's back arched, while Rachel nipped and licked at her neck.
Quinn tangled one hand in Rachel's hair and the other in the sheets.
All in one swift move, Rachel took Quinn's nipple in her mouth, making the taller girl moan deeply.
Feeling joyful, Rachel looked up and smirked at Quinn, who blushed and continued to concentrate on the feelings ripping through her body.
Rachel kissed Quinn's bellybutton and met with her centre.
She traced her tongue along Quinn's slits a few times before taking Quinn's clit in her mouth. The blond moaned and dug her nails into Rachel's scalp.
The diva sucked and twirled her tongue around making the blond gasp for her life.
Rachel let her hands freely explore Quinn's body, trailing her fingers down Quinn's fragile figure.
Quinn pushed Rachel's head farther into her. "I need you inside of me" she begged.
That was all Rachel needed to hear. She parted, and laid her body against Quinn's pulling her into a heated kiss. Quinn tingled with sensations bursting from every part of her body.
Rachel gave her one last kiss before she put two fingers inside of Quinn.
The blond let out a heavy groan and flung her head back.
Rachel felt herself being strongly turned on by the noises Quinn was making, hearing her girlfriend in that way made heat pool between her legs.
The diva felt Quinn's walls contract around her fingers, she gave one last push deep inside of Quinn, while the blond screamed her name.
Rachel pulled her fingers out and lied beside her girlfriend.
Quinn was panting heavily, she looked at Rachel. The diva scrunched her eyebrows together." was it okay?" she asked.
A huge smile appeared on Quinn's face. "That was amazing" she announced.
Rachel kissed her cheek, and rolled on her side so that their foreheads were touching.
"Quinn Fabray, why are you on my mind all the time?" she asked.
"Rachel Berry, why are YOU on my mind 24/7? Quinn replied.
"I don t want us to go to work tomorrow" Rachel told her frowning.
"I don't either" Quinn responded.
"Can we just quit and live together in a box?" Rachel asked, giving her a goofy grin.
The blond laughed. "I wish, but we have to pay the bills, however I will text you whenever I get the chance, and we can spend the rest of the day snuggling when we get home" she suggested.
Rachel smiled." I would love that" she whispered.
"Well I love you" Quinn told her, smiling.
"You know I really like this soft side of you" Rachel told her, beaming.
"I know that's why I try to be as cheesy as possible" Quinn admitted.
Rachel tried her best to fight the flutters in her stomach. "Kiss me" she demanded.
Quinn did as she was told and kissed her.
"your mine forever" Rachel announced.
Quinn placed her hand on Rachel's face.
"forever and always" she whispered.
