- "You can enter your address on the GPS so you do not have to sit and tell me every time I turn. In this way we can talk about something else."

- "There you go. So Quinn, what do you want to talk about?"

"You could tell me more about yourself if you want?"

Rachel thought what they wanted to tell Quinn. She has always been an open person who likes to tell others about her life story. Rachel has never been shy, and it was something Quinn fascinated Rachel. It felt safe to talk to Quinn without being judged or impoverished in any way.

- "Okay, stranger. My name is Rachel Berry, I live with my two dads in Lima, Ohio. My goal is to one day sing on Brodway in a Tony-winning musical, find the love of my life, form a family, and live the rest of my life happily ever after in New York City."

Quinn could not help laughing at Rachel's small declaration.

- "Wow. You have already planned your entire future. Impressive."

- "It's called to have ambition Quinn, and I've got a lot of it. So now you know about most of me and my life. But how about you, stranger. What do you want out of life?"

- "Ah, life. First, I want to finish highshool. Then maybe college. And after that... Hmm... I do not know much more ... I guess we'll see. I do not know. Maybe get a good job, live a little.. Maybe travel. I have always wanted to go to Europe."

- "There you go. There is some ambition in Quinn Fabray after all. But now you need to tell me more about yourself. Who is this mysterious Quinn really?

- "My name is Lucy Quinn Fabray. But I use my second name as a name because it suits me better. I live with my mother in Lima, we have just moved here. My dad died when I was really young so I do not remember much of him. I love playing guitar, piano and drums. I do not like people who are lying and are fake. I was doing a lot of sports when I was younger but not anymore. And what's more... Right. I love bacon."

- "Oh, I'm Jewish, so I do not know about bacon. But I can relate to losing a parent. I have two dads so I was born with a surrogate. And while I love my two dads more than anyone else in the world, I can not help but wondering what I'm from. So I met her but she did not want anything to do with me so it was a dead end. Sorry about your daddy. If you do not mind, but how did he die? You do not need to tell me if you do not want to, if it gets too hard for you."

- "No it is fine. It was so long ago and I was too little to remember really. I really remember only little pieces of him and a feeling. He died in cancer."

- "I am so sorry Quinn. No person will have to lose anyone in that awful disease. Least of all the children who lose a parent."

- "Hey. It is okay. As I said, it was a long time ago. And by the way, that's how I met Santana. Her father is a doctor and we were in a summer camp for doctors / relatives with families. Those adults talked medicine and illness while we children made friends for life with each was fun."

Rachel studied the blond girl who sat at her for a short time, she could not see any compassion in her face so she decided not to think about it. Rachel saw that she was soon at her house, and it felt boring to divorce with such a sad topic so she chose to ask a question instead.

- "Why do you not date?"

Quinn stopped the car on the driveway as the voice had said and laughed a bit on Rachel's futility.

- "As I said, it's not that I do not like to meet people. I do. But I just feel it's not for me. I just like being alone. Free. I am a fierce friend if needed but I have difficulty seeing someone else belong to me. Do you understand what I mean?"

- "No Quinn. I dont. So if somebody in the future who you love and who wants to be with you, you would just leave it on such an occasion and just reply: No thanks, I'm not dating.
That crazy!"

- "Okay. Let me put this up for you. Look. If it comes to someone you love, and not just plain love. Love as in such a self-closing manner. With your entire existence love. Is it not right then to release it? You can not resist such kind of love. A love that changes you in your soul and makes you do things you would never otherwise do. How can a person resist such love? Is not it true then if you let it go? Or when is it true then? Love should not be selfish, true love is when you release it. In my opinion anyway."

Rachel was stunned. She did not say a word and looked at Quinn, who just looked back. Quiet. Finally, after some time, it was Rachel who broke the silence.

- "I like you, Quinn Fabray. I like how you think and you are very talented with words. I think this is the beginning of a very long friendship. I'll give you a hug now, is that okay?"

- "Of course it's okay. You do not have to ask that Rachel. And also, I like you too."

They embraced and Rachel spoke with her chin still on Quinn's shoulder.

- "You know, it means a lot to me that you are my friend. I do not have so many friends and especially not close friends. Thank you."

Quinn finished the hug and sat straight in the seat again behind the wheel.

- "Thank you very much for the ride Quinn, I hope you have a safe trip home. Maybe I can give you my number so you can send a text when you get home so I know you came home safely. If you want to...

- "Or maybe I can take your number so I can call you later, so can we talk more then... If you want..."

- "I would love that. Thank you again for the lift Quinn. Talk to you later."

Quinn waited while Rachel walked toward the house, she wanted to see so Rachel came in properly. Rachel opened the door and turned around, giving Quinn a wave and then went into the house.

Quinn looked at the gps, saved the address and then chose her own adress to go home.
