Quinn Fabray: My Story

Chapter 35 - Cheaters Never Prosper

Author's Note: Hey everyone in this chapter I combined parts of both 'Silly Love Songs' and 'Comeback' episodes. I also changed the storyline a bit into a relationship that I felt made more sense for Quinn to get into. I hope you like the changes I've made to Glee. Let me know in the comments below what you think :)

After the halftime show where the football players all joined us in performing the mashup and the championship game took a turn for the best. The Glee girls no longer had to compete so we were all on the sidelines cheering for the Titans. The Titans were so close to winning but were falling short. They were all chanting 'Brains' like zombies which soon us girls on the sidelines joined in with. Sure enough our chanting had the quarterback fumble a snap causing Finn to get the ball and score a touchdown, leading the Titans to the championship victory. I couldn't help but smile. I was so proud of the football team for pulling it together in the second half. I had found out that it was Puck who had convinced those guys to perform. I couldn't help but be proud of Puck. When he put his mind to something great like that he could be unstoppable. It was thanks to Finn that Puck had done this. I was glad to see they were starting to get along again. Maybe things were going to change for the better in this New Year. I sure hoped so. Puck grinned at me as I smiled back proud of him, for a moment it felt like we were the only two people in the stadium.

The cheerios ended up losing their regional which meant the season was over for them for competing. The best thing that came out of the cheerios losing was that the remainder of the cheerios budget went to the Glee Club which meant we didn't have to worry about saving up money for our bus to Regionals which felt like a huge relief. It was nice for some good to come out of a Cheerios loss, especially when it meant good things for the Glee Club who had stuck by me through possibly the hardest time in my life.

Going to school on Monday felt strange, especially being out of the cheerios uniform again but it felt good knowing that this time I left on my own accord. "Hey it's good to see you out of the uniform, how does it feel?" Puck grinned. "Weird. I did turn a couple of heads when I walked by," I giggled a bit. "I'm glad you felt the squad. I mean I know it meant a lot to you to get back on but it's good to have the real Quinn back," Puck said as my heart skipped a beat. What was it about things with Puck that I truly couldn't help but feel that spark everytime we spoke. "I want to thank you," I smiled. "Thank me? For what?" Puck said shaking his head. "For saving the game. I know it was Finn's idea but you were the one who got those guys to come back and win the championship. It reminded me of why I loved you," I told him seriously. Puck looked speechless as I then leaned in and kissed him. "See you around," I said quickly as I walked off wondering what had gotten into me in the first place.

The minute I had kissed Puck I had regretted it. Why did I do the one thing I had promised Sam I wouldn't do? Granted a kiss wasn't as serious as what I had done to Finn last year but still it was a move in the wrong direction. If I had been so willing to kiss Puck behind Sam's back was I truly ready to be in a committed relationship with him? Truth was I didn't know what to do, all I knew was I needed some advice and fast.

I entered the vastly empty choir room to find Mercedes, Tina, and Rachel hanging out. I was relieved that Brittany and Santana weren't around. As much as I loved Brittany she didn't always know how to keep her mouth shut and Santana would've killed me if she found out that I had kissed Puck. "Quinn, hey," Mercedes smiled at me as I waved before sitting with them. "Is everything okay? You look kind of stressed," Tina asked. I sighed a bit "Can I tell you guys something?" I asked. "Girl, you know you can tell me anything," Mercedes smiled. "What is it?" Rachel asked intrigued. "Just promise me you won't judge me," I sighed. "Of course we won't," Tina smiled. "I mean how could you do anything worse than cheating on Finn with his best friend?" Rachel shrugged as Mercedes and Tina gave her a look.
