Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now...

Beth was tired of being disappointed. She kept coming up empty handed and left in the dark. Every night after her mother would go to sleep, Beth would cry until her eyes hurt. It wasn't the beautiful cry, a few tears here and there, it was the ugly kind. The kind of cry where you couldn't breathe because your chest hurt so bad. Beth wasn't exactly sure why she was crying. She lived her entire life not knowing her parents. Why all of a sudden did it bother her so much?

Maybe searching for them was the wrong idea? What if their story wasn't what Beth expected? They might not even be together anymore. Beth pushed that unclean thought out of her parents. Her parents loved one another. Beth was sure of it. They probably have a wonderful life together. Maybe she even had siblings?

It didn't matter anyway. Beth was not a part of their family. She was just a memory.

A mistake.

Her parents didn't want her. Who cares if they were young? Beth was sure they could have made it work. The tears were beginning to build up in her eyes. She wiped at them furiously, not wanting to give in. Beth didn't want to care anymore. Her life was fine and she needed to stop thinking about something that never was and never will be.

Still, she would always have questions. Nothing frustrated Beth more then unanswered questions, but she needed face the truth. Beth would never meet her birth parents.

Quinn Fabray had been through a lot in her life. She had experienced more in her life then most her age. At the age of 28 she had already had a baby, been married, and then got a divorce. Quinn wasn't ashamed of that, just sometimes surprised. When Quinn imagined her life, she wouldn't have seen herself living this way.

In highschool Quinn had it all. She was the captain of the cheerleading squad and one of the most popular girls in school, but one year that all changed.

He was charming and sexy. A deadly combination.

Noah Puckerman changed Quinn's life forever. It wasn't that he got her pregnant, but that he showed her what it felt like to be in love. If the situation were different, maybe her life would be? She was a 16 year old girl with parents who disowned her and nowhere to turn. Truthfully, she wanted nothing more then to keep her baby, but it just couldn't be.

It was hard watching her baby go to someone else, but she had to give her a better life. After that she and Puck tried to make a relationship work and for awhile they did, but by the end of highschool they were over.

A year later they reunited and married. It was stupid and impulsive, but Quinn and Puck made it work for a few years. They were young and dealing with pain way beyond their years.

It was no surprise to anyone that they broke it off.

Since they signed the divorce papers Quinn hadn't seen Puck. She heard rumblings of what he was up too, but Quinn pretended to not care. Puck had ruined her life and she was done with him.

Noah Puckerman.

Father of her child. Ex husband. Love her of her life.

Quinn took a look in the mirror and smiled inspite of herself.

She was never going to have the life she dreamed about.
