More Than A Hookup

69

Quinn spent most of the week in the apartment. When she wasn't crying, she was sleeping.

Everything in the apartment made Quinn think about what happened, and everything made her upset.

Quinn and Puck barely spoke during the week. Puck worked a lot, and he was exhausted when he was actually home, so he slept a lot.

"I'm home, Q." Puck announced as he walked into the apartment.

Quinn walked over to greet Puck with a kiss. "Hey."

Puck smiled when they parted. "Hey."

"I wanted to talk to you about something." Quinn said.

"What's up?" Puck asked.

"Can we sit down?" Quinn requested.

Puck furrowed his eyebrow and nodded.

Quinn took Puck's hand and led him to the couch. The pair sat down together.

"What's up?" Puck repeated.

"You know I love you." Quinn began.

Puck raised his eyebrow. "But?"

"But nothing." Quinn shook her head.

"Quinn." Puck looked at her.

"I'm leaving." Quinn blurted.

Puck furrowed his eyebrow. "What does that mean?"

"I'm gonna stay with Rachel for a little while." Quinn responded.

"Why?" Puck questioned Quinn.

"I can't stop thinking about it." Quinn explained. "Everything in this apartment makes me think about it."

Puck looked at Quinn. "What if we go to Lima?"

Quinn shook her head. "I need to be alone."

"Oh, you mean away from me." Puck noted.

"No." Quinn said. "I'm not trying to get away from you, I'm-"

"You're not dealing with your crap." Puck cut Quinn off as he stood up. "You're running from it, and you're pushing me away."

Quinn slowly stood up and looked at Puck. "I'm not."

"You are." Puck said. "You always do that."

"I'm gonna pack a bag." Quinn decided as she started to walk away.

"See?" Puck raised his eyebrow. "You're doing it right now."

Quinn looked at Puck. "We can talk about this in a few days."

"I can't do this." Puck said. "This week has been torture. We barely talked all week."

"What does that mean?" Quinn wondered.

"Let's just end this before things get worse." Puck suggested.

"You're breaking up with me?" Quinn raised her eyebrow.

Puck shook his head. "We were together because of the baby anyway, right?"

"I know you're hurt, but don't say things that you're gonna regret." Quinn warned Puck.

"I love you, Quinn." Puck told Quinn.

"I love you, too." Quinn responded.

Puck put his arms around Quinn and kissed her.

When they parted, Quinn excused herself to pack a bag.
