Family
"Where is this coming from? A few days ago you were saying that you couldn't wait for me to have our baby now you're questioning me about it's paternity? That's low, Huck. Even for you." Quinn said before walking away from him to go upstairs but he followed her
"Just answer the question. Is the baby mine?" Huck pressed making her sigh as she sat down on the bed
"Why are you asking me this? You know I haven't cheated on you and yet your standing here and asking me about the paternity of the baby that we planned to have before Haley and Javi even came along." Quinn told him rubbing her stomach as a pain shot through her left side
"Why won't you answer the question? It's a simple yes or no question." He said to her as she stood up and walked to the bathroom
"Huck, I am pregnant. I don't need stress. My doctor already told me there was a risk I wouldn't be able to carry this baby to full term. So will you please stop accusing me of carrying another man's child." She asked grabbing her medicine that helped sooth her pain before putting them in her mouth and swallowing them with the glass of water she kept on the bathroom counter before walking back out of the bathroom
"You know why you can't answer the question? Because these accusations are true." He said as Quinn placed her hands on the edge of the dresser as another sharp pain hit her
"You don't now what you're what you are talking abo-" Quinn trailed off as the doorbell rang, Quinn went downstairs to answer the door and when she did her father was standing on the other smiling but the smile quickly faded when he saw the tears forming in his daughters eyes
"What happened? What did you do Lindsay?" Ray asked Huck looking directly at him
"Nothing. We were simply talking about a family matter." Huck said folding his arms across his chest
"Then why is my pregnant daughter crying? What happened baby girl?" Ray asked concerned about his daughters well being
"Huck doesn't think the baby's his." Quinn told him hugging him tightly as she wiped her tears from her eyes
"I can tell you when my daughter wasn't with you, she was with me. The two weeks you spent in Afghanistan, she spent at my house day and night. Her, Haley, and Javi. We all shared the same room and she never left that room once." Ray explained squeezing her tightly
"Yeah sure. Whatever." Huck said walking past him out of the house leaving Ray in there with Quinn in his arms as she sobbed uncontrollably
Huck sighed as he stared at the kids running around the park laughing and playing making him wonder why he ever listened to the rumors he heard. He should have known Quinn would never lie to him about the baby but he just wanted to be careful about who he trusted. Every since he worked for B-613 and met Becky he wasn't able to fully trust anyone. But Quinn was different. She was honest, truthful, kind, caring, and loving. He decided then that he would go home and fix his relationship so he could save his family.
3 hours later, Quinn sniffled as she looked down at her sleeping angel. Haley seemed to be the only one she could talk to. Even though she couldn't talk back. She looed up when she heard the front door slam and ran back to the bedroom and in the bed prentending to be asleep when Huck came in. She felt the goosebumps cover her arms as his footsteps got closer and closer to her until they stopped. She knew he was standing over her by the eerie feeling of someone watching her closely then she felt him kiss her cheek lightly causing her to open her eyes against her will.
"You're terrible at pretending to be sleep." Huck said staring down at her with the softest eyes she had ever seen but she didn't respond instead she rolled over on her side to face away from him still mad at him for what happened earlier, "Look, I now you're mad but you can't hate me forever." He said as a tear rolled down his cheek at her ignorance of his presence
"Hate you? You accused me of carrying someone else's baby. SO I have every right to hate you if I want to." Quinn said rolling back over to look at him
"I'm sorry that I even asked such a stupid question but I just... I've been lied to for... a very long time. So I just... I don't know. It's stupid never mind." He said walking out of the room making her sigh as a another wave of fresh tears began to pour as she sobbed once again unaware of the fact Javi was standing behind the bedroom door listening to their conversation
"Looks like Mom and Dad are fighting again." Javi said sighing as he walked back to his room
Huck stretched as he realized he fell asleep on the couch. He knew he needed to apologize to Quinn but it was hard since he rarely apologized to people. He got up and went upstairs to check on his fiance, he knew she was in the tub when he didn't see her on the bed so he walked to the bathroom and opened the door smiling when he saw Quinn with her eyes closed and head leaned back as she soaked in the bath water full of warm water and bubbles.
"Hey you." Huck said watching as her eyes fluttered open briefly
"Hey yourself." Quinn said closing her eyes again
"I'm sorry." He said looking down
"Good for you." She said
"I'm sorry for the accusations, I'm sorry for yelling at you, and I'm sorry for not believing you." He said hoping she would actually listen this time, "Come on, Quinn. You can't stay mad forever. Say it. Say you forgive me." He said running his thumb down her cheek watching as her eyes fluttered open once again
"I forgive you. And I love you." She said softly as he leaned in and kissed her lightly before she pulled away to get out of the tub
Quinn yawned as she walked back down the hall from the kitchen. She was tired but her mind was too wired to sleep. Her mind was going a mile a minute from what happened earlier. She was pissed at Huck and she even took her engagement ring off. She walked into the bedroom and spotted Huck sitting on the bed holding her ring in his hand as he stared off into space obviously thinking hard about something.
"Are you okay?" Quinn asked walking closer to him
"You took off your ring. The one thing that kept us together. Why?" Huck asked not looking at her
"Because I was angry. Because I wanted to pretend we were back in the time line where we trusted each other and where we were happy. So I took it off and I pretended." She said sitting on the other side of the bed
"I still trust you. I'm still happy. So there is no reason to pretend." He said looking back at her
"I know." She said looking down at her bare finger where her ring was once placed
"You look tired. You need to rest." He said pulshing down on the matress hoping she would go to sleep
"But I'm not tired."
"Yes you are. Get some sleep."
At 3:23 A.M. Quinn shot up from the bed when she heard Javi calling out for her. She flung the blankets off just as Huck woke up from her shaking him. She ran down the hall threw Javi's room door open and found him in the corner of his room shaking violently.
"What happened? What happened to my baby?" Quinn asked wrapping her arms around him tightly
"I had a nightmare. It was horrible." Javi said squeezing her as tightly as he could
"Do you want to talk about it? I won't tell anyone else." She said kissing his forehead gently
"No. I don't want to think about it." He said as she rocked him slowly
"It will make you feel better. Tell me." She said pulling back to look at him and sighed
"I had a dream that you had the baby. It was a girl and her name was Jennifer. You and Dad let me hold her and when I was holding her I dropped her and then she died and then you guys said that I murdered my baby sister and that you didn't want me anymore and that you hated me and didn't love me. Then you and Dad sent me away to this weird place. That's where my dream ended." He said as a tear rolled down his cheek.
"Oh my sweet boy. I love you and I would never send you away and neither would your Dad no matter what you would do. Okay?" Quinn asked
"Okay." Javi said looking towards the doorway when he saw his father appear with his gun in his hand
"Everything okay?" Huck asked
"Yeah. Everythings fine. Will you guys stay with me? Just until I fall asleep." Javi said getting up from the floor
"Of course." Quinn said laying down in the bed with him as Huck did the same
2 hours later Huck and Quinn carefully climbed out of Javi's bed and went back to their bedroom hand-in-hand. Huck pulled back the blankets and help Quinn get comfortable before climbing in his self.
"I hope Javi will be okay for the night." Quinn said staring up at the ceiling
"Me too. I have never seen him so scared in his life." Huck said looking over at her, "I really am sorry. You do know that right?" He asked propping himself up on his pillow
"I know." She responded yawning as she got out of bed once again and went down to the kitchen but something Huck saw caught his attention. He caught a glimpse of some pink lace beneath her T-shirt and shorts. He scrambled out of bed and ran downstairs and found her shoveling gigantic spoons of ice cream into her mouth. He walked over to her and took the ice cream and spoon from her making her frown
"Huck? What are you- Hey!" Quinn said as he pushed against the pantry door. The door had barely closed behind him before he'd literally whipped the T-shirt off of her body. He held it in one hand, his other limp at his side as he took her in. She was most definitely wearing a pink lace bra.
And he was definitely about to lose his mind.
The Quinn he thought he knew didn't go for baby pink. There was no point, she'd explained, in spending an exorbitant amount of money on something that won't stay on long enough for the man to admire it. But it looked like she didn't count that as a tried and true rule. Here she was, in bright pink and looking sexier than ever.
"It's pink." He said as his free hand came up to splay over her naked back. His other hand dropped the t-shirt to the floor, fingers coming up to trace the edges of the cups, following the pattern of the lace on her skin.
"It is." She murmured her eyes sliding closed.
"Why?" He asked
"Why what?" She asked absently. He smiled knowing how much she enjoyed his touch. It was one of those personal things he'd discovered about her through the growth of their relationship. Quinn Perkins loved to be touched by him. He was always willing to indulge her. Still he had other goals too this time.
"Why pink?" Huck said. She looked at him with hazy eyes so he stopped touching her, well aware that he was distracting her with the soft brush of his fingertips
"Why not?" Quinn replied in confusion her eyes opening hands coming up to make quick work of T-shirt leaving it on the floor. "And does it matter right now?"
"I want to know-" Huck was cut off by a fierce kiss continuing it until his dress shirt was hanging open by his shoulders.
Now that he thought about it, it really wasn't important right now. He stepped towards her forcing her to step back continuing the process until she was pressed against her counter. Her pants went next a quick removal of material and he groaned when he found lacy boyshorts that matched her bra. The colour against her creamy skin made him harder. He wanted access to the skin beneath but he knew how rare it was to see her in such racy underwear and such colourful underwear that he wanted to leave it on as much as possible. It was almost like a challenge, one he was more than up to. Literally and figuratively speaking.
He kicked off his shoes and socks while Quinn nibbled at his neck and dealt with his belt and shirt. Then it was his turn and where she was fierce and passionate he fully intended to take his time. So he slowed their kisses down decreasing desperation at the same time he increased the sensuality of the act. His hands trailed slow paths up and down her sides, skipping in to her inner thighs before retreating again. He hoisted her onto the counter one hand under her ass to hold her weight until he could deposit her on the clean, white surface.
"Huck." She breathed,trying to get him where she wanted him. He knew the signs all too well the slight buck of her hips when his fingers started drawing pointless patterns on her thighs, the desperation of her hands clasped around his neck trying to push him further than her neck.
"You look fantastic in pink." He whispered against her skin "So hot."
His smile was predatory as he made contact with her center through the pink lace. Those would have to go eventually, but the bra could probably stay. It was probably the one and only time he wouldn't mind her breasts clothed while they made love. Her head was thrown back, her breath short, and he attacked her throat and collarbone with his lips while his hands stroked, rubbed and circled. Her sounds drove him, told him when to move his fingers faster, when to delve inside to find her bare, wet flesh. His thumb had barely brushed her clit when her breath hitched and she was gone.
He finally attached his mouth to her breasts as she came down, licking, sucking and biting through pink lace. The fabric was warm since she'd been wearing it all day and now wet from his mouth as he pulled away. His hands came up to play instead seconds after he roughly stripped her panties from her body. She managed to unbuckle his pants and shove them and his underwear to the floor where he stepped out of them easily. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he pulled her to him, both of them working together to slide her onto his erection. His mouth went to her breasts again while her hands threaded through his hair. They were quick to find their rhythm, not that it was a surprise for either of them. They'd been doing this long enough, knew each other well enough to know exactly how to move.
She went over first, the extra friction from the lace of her bra coiling that ball even faster and tighter. She cried out, squeezing him inside her. He watched the rapture float across her face and it trigged his own release. His arms wrapped around her body, pulling her tightly to him, holding her there.
"Want to tell me about the pink?" Huck asked eventually when he was sure his feet could move without sending them both tumbling to the floor, he moved them to the couch, settling back against one arm, Quinn still cradled to his chest. He traced the pink on her back with one hand while the other stroked her bare back.
"Not yet." She said
"Will you put your ring back on?" He asked
"Of course." She said kissing him
"Quinn, may I have a cup of warm milk?" Javi asked peeping around the corner
"Motherly duties call." Quinn said getting up and going into the kitchen to retrieve Javi's water
Quinn stretched as she sat up in the bed. She didn't re-call getting into the bed last night which meant Huck had carried her up there after she shared warm milk with Javi and fell asleep. She looked towards the window and found Huck standing there with Haley in his arms. She knew he whispering something to her so she listened closer.
"You know I hope your baby brother or sister will be just like you. Smart, beautiful, and strong." Huck whispered to Haley
"Baby." Haley said staring up at him
"Yeah, baby. I can't for you to start crawling and then when start crawling you can start walking." Huck said before turning around when he heard the bed squeak, "Would you look at that. Say good morning Mommy." He said walking over to kiss her
"Morning my baby." Quinn said taking Haley from him gently
"Mommy." Haley said leaning her head against Quinn's shoulder
"Dad! Quinnie!" Javi yelled as ran into jumping into the bed
"Woah! Morning buddy." Huck said sitting down on the bed
"Morning." Javi said
"Tickle fight!" Huck yelled suddenly before throwing himself on Quinn and Javi making them both laugh as Haley screamed
