UA21
It was five thirty-nine in the evening when Huck and Quinn's doorbell rang and when Quinn opened it she was surprised to see Abby standing there looking a little nervous and scared
"Hi Abby. What are you doing here?" Quinn asked her
"I just wanted to see Haley." Abby asked walking inside, "Where is she?" She asked
"Huck has her." Quinn responded closing the door
"Where are they?" Abby asked
"Upstairs in the nursery." Quinn told her guiding her up the stairs towards the nursery
"Hi Huck. Hi Haley." Abby said as they walked into the nursery
"Hey Abby." Huck said turning around
"Oh my goodness. Look at her." Abby said when she saw Haley
"You want to hold her?" Huck asked walking closer
"Yeah sure." Abby said as Huck placed the little girl in her arms, "Am I doing it right?"
"Yeah. You're doing fine." Quinn said
"May I ask how it felt to be pregnant?" Abby asked her
"Well there's the insecurity that happens when you start gaining wait and then there's the moments when your baby starts kicking and then you realize that you have an actual human being growing and maturing inside of your body. But then you go into premature labor which is very scary because you don't know if you and your baby will survive but look at me and Haley we made it so." Quinn finished shrugging her shoulders
"Oh, okay." Abby said bouncing Haley in her arms
"Hey Huck can I talk to Abby in private for few?" Quinn asked
"Yeah sure." Huck said leaving the room closing the door behind him
"Abby are you pregnant?" Quinn asked her
"I don't know. Please don't tell anyone. I mean David and I never talked about children before and I'm scared he will leave me because of my pregnancy." Abby said with tears forming in her blue orbs
"Oh Abby." Quinn said placing her hand on her shoulders, "I ended up pregnant with another man's child and look where I am. Look at the beautiful and happy environment Huck created for our child. Look at how happy he is raising Haley as his own even though her DNA says other wise. Look at us Abby we're here as a family and we're engaged to be married, to be a family, to finally be... normal." Quinn said to Abby
"You're engaged?" Abby asked shocked
"Yeah. You see." Quinn said holding her hand out to show her the engagment ring
"It's gorgeous." Abby said smiling
"Yeah it is." Quinn said
"I should go now." Abby said handing Haley back to Quinn
"Tell Huck to let you out I have to breastfeed Haley." Quinn told her sitting down in the rocking chair
"Does breastfeeding hurt?" Abby asked
"At first yes but eventually you'll get used to it." Quinn said unclasping the hook that kept the strap of her nursing bra up
"Okay. Bye." Abby said walking out of the door
"Bye." Quinn called after her as she nursed Haley, she listened in as the door downstairs shut and Huck's footsteps ventured up the stairs
"She's eating." Huck said as he walked into the room
"Yeah. She was whining." Quinn said grimacing slightly as Haley nipped lightly at still tender breast
"She's so beautiful." He said peeking down her shirt
"She's also biting me. Stop it." She said as Haley nipped at her breast again
"She's just a little baby, Quinn. She'll learn." He told her, "What did you and Abby talk about?" He asked her
"Uh, girl stuff." She said
"Girl stuff like what?" Huck asked her
"Huck it's not..." Quinn was cut off by her phone ringing so she reached over picking it up smiling when she saw it was Olivia, "Hey Livy, whats up?" She said into the phone repositioning Haley before standing up placing her in her crib
"Nothing just wanted to see how you and Haley was doing." Olivia said back
"We're fine." Quinn said picking up her sock that was thrown on the floor
"That's good. So we were planning on stopping by later to see her is that okay?" OLivia asked as she walked through the baby boutique searching for clothes for Haley
"Yeah that's fine." Quinn said sighing as Haley started crying again, "I have to call you back." She said to Olivia
"Okay bye." Olivia said hanging up
"Okay my angel what's the matter?" Quinn asked bouncing her softly
"Maybe she's hungry." Huck reccommended
"She just ate." She told him
"Okay I'll be right back." He said walking out of the nursery
"What am I doing wrong, Haley?" Quinn asked her knowing she can't answer back just then she heard the door bell go off so she ventured down the stairs only to find that Huck had already opened the door to reveal her father, "What are you doing here, Ray?" She asked him
"I came to see my granddaughter." Ray said walking over to her, "Hi baby." He said attempting to take Haley out of her arms
"She's tired Ray." Quinn said stepping back, "Besides you've been drinking. And you smell like a whole bottle of scotch." She told him
"Maybe I should take her." Huck said carefully taking Haley from her arms
"So what if I've been drinking that's still my grandchild." Ray said raising his voice as he stepped closer
"First of all your in my house so you need to lower your voice and second my daughter is right here and she is sleepy so I am going to put her to bed." Quinn told him walking up the stairs where Huck had took Haley
"Don't walk away from me!" Ray said yanking Quinn back down the stairs by her hair causing Quinn yell out in pain before he threw her to the floor
"Get off of her." Huck said to Ray running down the stairs pulling him off of Quinn throwing him against the wall, "Are you okay?" He asked Quinn kneeling to her side
"I'm fine. But I want him out of my house." Quinn said as she stood up before walking up the stairs
"You need to get out of my house right now." Huck told Ray
"Fine." Ray said walking out closing the door behind him
Huck sighed as he stood there knowing Quinn probably wouldn't let him touch her without flinching just like she did after her breakup with Charlie. Huck ventured up the stairs stopping when he heard Quinn singing softly to Haley
Goodnight, my angel, time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you've been asking me
I think you know what I've been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
Then you should always know
Wherever you may go, no matter where you are
I never will be far away
Goodnight, my angel, now it's time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
When we went sailing on an emerald bay
And like a boat out on the ocean
I'm rocking you to sleep
The water's dark and deep, inside this ancient heart
You'll always be a part of me
Huck peaked around the corner and saw Quinn swaying softly with Haley in her arms slowly falling asleep
Goodnight, my angel, now it's time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child may cry, and if you sing this lullaby
Then in your heart there will always be a part of me
Someday we'll all be gone
But lullabys go on and on
They never die
That's how you and I will be
He watched as Quinn placed Haley in her crib before she broke down crying which scared him so he rushed to her side holding her close
"You're okay. You're okay." Huck whispered quietly in her ear as she sobbed uncontrollably
4 hours later Quinn was laying in the bed against Huck's chest as they watched Wipe-Out
"Do you feel better?" Huck asked her
"Yeah I do." Quinn said closing her eyes, "Why would my dad do that? I mean he's never laid his hands on me before." She told him
"He was drunk, Quinn." He told her pulling her closer
"Yeah he was." She agreed as she drifted off into a peaceful sleep
