Ch.37

At seven and half months pregnant Quinn was started to slow down. To be quiet honest she often felt like a water buffalo have the time and a walrus the other half. The baby was getting more active by the day. She was frequently waking Quinn in the middle of the night by dancing on Quinn's bladder and she like to kick during Cheerios practice. Yes the baby was one active kiddo, it was like she was desperate to not let Quinn forget she was alive and growing and would soon, a month and half, be joining the world.

Tonight the baby had woken Quinn around one in the morning doing an Irish jig. With her night light the only source of light in the room Quinn lay on her back, her hand making gentle circles on her stomach trying to calm her little dance. Her little dance, Quinn sighed at the thought. She'd been procrastinating far too long on her decision on whether or not she was keeping the baby. The decision had flip flop consistently over the past few months but the last few weeks, since she came home to Judy, started going to therapy, and began getting to know Hiram and Leroy better her mind had drifted in one particular directions and she wasn't sure if it was the right one, she was scared that she was being selfish.

"Oh baby I just want what's best for you." Her daughter kicked and Quinn smiled. Eventually the two feel asleep.

"Hey Quinn." Quinn looked up and smiled as Noah came bounding over to her spot in the library. After he had found her at Spencer's they'd reinstated their lunch reading dates, no not dates, sessions. "Hi Noah, did you finish it?" Quinn motioned to Hunger Games in his hands.

"Yes, crazy shit."

"Language, Noah." Quinn corrected as she rubbed her stomach.

"Baby Q can't hear me." Noah rolled his eyes as he sat Indian style next to Quinn. She immediately leaned into him and he through his arm around her shoulders. "Tired?"

She nodded with a slight yawn, "All the time now. And yes she can hear you, at least that is what the books say."

"Fine, I'll watch my language." Somehow Quinn doubted her friend could for very long. "Anyway, yeah that book was insane. Katniss is so badass though. I kinda feel bad for Gale, she's totally going to choose Peeta in the end."

Quinn swallowed her giggle at Noah analyzing the romantic relationships of Katniss; he probably wouldn't appreciate being teased about it. Noah actually took critique books very seriously. "You think so?"

"Totally, there is no way you go through something like that and not remain connected forever. Peeta truly loves Katniss, I think Katniss does too but she is too afraid to acknowledge it. Gale is familiar he is similar to her, but Peeta is new and he comes from a different part of society within in District 12 yet he completely understands her and risks his life to save her. Its overwhelming for her. Katniss can only focus on surviving so she can get back to Prim, who she believe will be abandoned by their mom, if she dies. She is in denial because there is so much else in her life she has to think about and worry about, but she sees Peeta, she feels for him, yeah so I think eventually she will realize that she loves him too." Quinn felt a weird sensation flow through her as Noah spoke, the way he looked at her it was almost as if he was talking about her and not Katniss.

"Guess you'll have to read the next two books to find out." Quinn said trying to move the conversation forward.

"Oh I already started Catching Fire, they just started the Victory Tour."

"Well my own warning is that you're in for a ton of curves."

"Great." Noah rolled his eyes but smiled. "So how is the little one?" He didn't even hesitate as he rubbed her stomach. It wasn't long after she got home that he began doing this, the first time had caught Quinn by surprise but she found she liked it. So did Baby Q, she often kicked and moved when Noah spoke or rubbed Quinn's stomach.

"Restless as always, had me up at one last night."

"No wonder you are tired. You can take a nap if you want, I'll wake you for your next class." Quinn looked at her watch, thirty minutes, that was defiantly enough for a power nap. Quinn shimmed and slid down putting her head in Noah's lap, he instantly began scratching her head it was so calming. "Thanks."

"No prob." Quinn couldn't see but Noah was grinning like the Cheshire Cat.

Judy moved through the mall with Quinn, with the winter fading and spring around the corner, Quinn was in desperate need of new maternity clothes. Though she was still relatively small, Quinn's stomach had grown out quickly in the last two weeks. "What do you want? Jean and shirts or dresses?"

Quinn paused her search through some sun dresses, "Both I guess, but I don't need to many, it isn't long now anyway?" Quinn shrugged and continued her search. Forty-five minutes later they had two new dresses, a couple pairs of pants, and four new shirts. Judy was starting to lead their way out of the department store when she noticed Quinn was no longer with her. Turning she saw Quinn staring at the intimate's section, in particularly the bras. "Sweetheart?" Judy walked back to Quinn, "Do you need a new bra too?" Quinn was biting her lip her eyes jumping around and her hands wringing, rather rubbing hard together. Judy gently reached out stopping Quinn's hands. "Honey?" Judy prompted again.

"I…I think I need a nursing bra soon." Her voice was so low and Judy nearly missed her statement but she heard, oh did she hear. Judy's heart jumped in her chest, her eyes grew wide as did her smile. Quinn was looking at her cautiously, slight fear and nervousness swirling in her hazel gaze.

"Does…Quinn are you keeping the baby?"

Quinn bit her lip again while ducking her head, Judy reached out and lifted her daughter's chin so that their eyes met, "It's alright if you do."

"Really?"

"Yes, absolutely yes. I will help you in every way that I can. I love you Quinn and I love my granddaughter so much." That was the first time that Judy had called the baby her granddaughter and it felt amazing coming off her lips.

Quinn nodded as tears began to seep from her eyes, "I think I really do. I love her too, and I just…I don't ever want her to think I didn't love her or that I abandoned her. I know what that feels like and I never ever want that for my child."

It felt like a knife went through Judy's heart. "Oh Quinn I'm so sor…"

"No I didn't say that to make you feel bad. I am starting to realize just how much everything was out of your control, that this was all Russell's fault. But that doesn't change the fact that I felt that way growing up and I refuse for my child to feel the same way. It is going to be hard and I am not really sure I am making the right choice for her, maybe she deserves better, someone who can give her everything she needs and deserves."

"You can do that Quinn." Judy pulled Quinn into her and hugged her closes, "you have me and Leroy and Hiram. I know that Santana, Brittany, Rachel, and even Puck will help too. You have a great support system because we all love you and this baby, so don't think you can't give her what she deserves because you can, and what she and you both deserve the most is each other."

Quinn nodded into Judy, "Thank you."

"No need for thank yous, I'm going to be Grandmother." Judy paused, "Oh Lord I'm a Grandmother." This of course made Quinn laugh. "Yeah, but at least you're a young one."

Judy chuckle, "Thank the Lord for that." The two laughed as the moved toward the nursing bra's, Judy suddenly felt lighter and happier, Quinn was keeping the baby and Judy couldn't be more thrilled.
