Secret's Part 1
Everyone was sitting at the dining room table laughing at the stories Ray was telling Huck about Quinn when she was a little girl
"She called her best friends mother a bitch and we grounded her that's why she couldn't go to her birthday party." Ray said while laughing at the memory
"In my defense, she was a bitch, okay? She was always so mean to me." Quinn said while smiling
"Yeah sure she was. Hopefully this little one won't be anything like you." Huck said rubbing her stomach
"Hopefully not." Ray said back then he realized that he should tell Quinn about his condition, "Daddy has something to tell you, baby girl." Ray said to Quinn
"Oh my gosh, are you moving to D.C.?" Quinn asked excitedly
"No, baby." Ray said back sipping the last bit of his water
"Would like more water?" Quinn asked standing up taking his glass
"Yes please." Ray said watching as she walked over to the fridge
"So what did you have to tell me?" She asked
"You need to sit down for this." Ray told her
"I'm a big girl daddy I can take standing up." Quinn said walking back to the table
"Okay if you say so. I uh, I have cancer." Ray said watching as all the color drained from Quinn's face as her world started spinning then her whole world went black as she fell to the floor
"Quinn!" Huck exclaimed catching her before she hit her head on the hard floor
"Is she okay?" Ray asked kneeling down next to them
"I hope so." Huck said holding her close
Quinn woke up to the feeling of a cold rag being pressed against her forehead
"Huck?" Quinn called out opening her eyes
"I'm right here." Huck said
"What happened?" She asked him obviously confused
"You fainted." He said brushing her hair out of her face
"Oh no, daddy. Where's my daddy?" She asked sitting up
"He went home. You need to lay down so won't pass out again." He said pushing her back down
"My daddy has cancer." Quinn said looking at him
"I know." Huck said wrapping his arms around her
"You do?" She asked
"I do." He responded rocking her backwards and forward
"How?" She asked
"He told me." He said
"I think we should see a therapist." Quinn said
"Why?" Huck asked slightly confused
"So we can get everything that could ruin our relationship in the future out." She said
"I agree." He said back
5 hours later Quinn was on the phone with a therapist making an appointment
"So we have to be in tomorrow at 10." Quinn said as she sat down on the bed
"10? Why 10?" Huck asked
"Because that was the only appointment they had for tomorrow." She said walking to the bathroom
"What are you doing?" He asked
"Taking a shower, why? It's not like you're going to join me." She said closing the door behind her
30 minutes later Huck and Quinn were preparing for bed with Quinn brushing her teeth and Huck removing the excess pillows from the bed
"I can't believe my daddy has cancer." Quinn said as she walked into the bedroom
"Just don't think about it." Huck said as he climbed into bed
"I'll try." She said as she laid down
"Goodnight, baby." He said kissing her cheek
"I'm 32 years old." She said back to him
"You're point?" He asked
"I'm not a baby. Goodnight." Quinn said
"So you may not be a baby but your my baby." Huck said back to her
It was 5:09 A.M. when Huck woke up to the sound of Quinn sobbing, he quickly turned on the lights and looked around frowning when he didn't see her in the room
"Quinn where are you?" Huck called out as he climbed out of bed
"In here." Quinn said from the nursery next door to their bedroom
"Hey what's the matter?" He asked her as he walked into the room
"My dad called to check on me after you went to sleep. He told me he only had a few weeks to live and that means..." She took a deep breath "My baby won't meet him. My baby won't meet it's grandfather." She said running her fingers through her hair
"Stop saying that." He said kneeling down next to her
"Stop saying what?" She asked
" You keep saying 'my baby' it's not just you're baby, Quinn. It's mine, too." Huck said
"But you're not my baby's father." Quinn said staring at him
"Maybe not in blood or DNA but I can phsyically and emotionally." He said back to her
"You don't have to." She told him
"I want to." He responded leaning over pressing a soft kiss upon her lips which she gladly returned, he frowned when she pulled away from him "What's the matter?" He asked her
"My I mean our baby's kicking." She said rubbing her expanding stomach
"Little one's worried about your well being." Huck said to her, "It doesn't want you stressing yourself out." He said running his hand over her stomach
"I'll try not to stress myself out but I just don't get why he doesn't get chemotherapy." Quinn said as Huck pulled her up off the floor
"He told me he couldn't afford it." He said guiding her out of the nursery
"Can we pay for it for him, Huck? I'll pay you back if that's what you want I just want daddy around." She said giving him the cutest little poutie face he had ever seen
"Yes we can pay for it. And no I don't want you to pay me back." He said hugging her, sort of considering her belly was now in the way
"Thank you, Huck. For taking care of me." She said looking up at him smiling
"Promise me you won't stress yourself out?" Huck asked her
"I can't fully guarantee anything but like I said I'll try." Quinn said
The next morning Quinn rolled out of bed to go get herself a glass of water before waking Huck up, she had a dream that she and Huck got married and moved to Denver, Colorado it was a nice dream but she knew it would never happen if she kept her deepest, darkest secrets away from him just then she heard his footsteps traveling down the stairs
"Morning." Huck said in his usual husky morning voice
"Morning." Quinn said back to him
"What time do we have to go in today, again?" He asked her pinning her to the counter
"10 why?" She asked as he pulled her hips closer to his
"Just asking." He said kissing her
"I thought we agreed to no more sex in the kitchen." She rasped out as he found her sensitive spot on her neck
"You said that I didn't."
Huck and Quinn walked through the halls of the doctor's office for their appointment with their therapist
"Hi we're here to see Dr. Holmes." Quinn told the receptionist
"Right this way." the receptionist said guiding them towards the office
"Dr. Holmes, you're client is here to see you." the receptionist said
"Good. Good evening Ms. Perkins and Mr. Huck." Dr. Holmes said
"Hello." Quinn and Huck said simultaneously as they sat down
"So I have to start by asking you Ms. Perkins, do you have any secrets that you are keeping away from your current boyfriend?" Dr. Holmes asked, Quinn stared at the therapist as all her memories came flooding back to her, Quinn opened her mouth to speak...
