No Strings Attached

"Hey." Quinn said when Noah walked out of her room.

"Hey." Noah said. "Have you been up long?"

"No, I just got up to shower." Quinn replied.

Noah nodded. "Where's Finn?"

"He just ran out to do the grocery shopping." Quinn answered.

"You wanna tell him when he gets back?" Noah wondered.

"Why don't we try to make a real plan first?" Quinn suggested.

"Okay." Noah nodded as he joined Quinn on the couch. "I think we should figure out where we wanna be."

"I don't wanna leave New York." Quinn stated. "I don't, and I know you have a life in L.A., so if you don't wanna do this, now's your chance to say so."

"No." Noah said. "No, I'll finish up in L.A. and get my things together and we can find a place in New York."

"Really?" Quinn asked.

"Yeah, I just wanna be wherever you and the baby are." Noah reminded Quinn. "Although my house in L.A. has plenty of room for a nursery."

"I'll think about it." Quinn said. "Don't sell your house yet."

"I won't." Noah promised.

"Okay." Quinn nodded. "We can tell Finn when he comes back."

"Cool." Noah nodded back.

"Can we tell Santana, too?" Quinn asked as she took out her phone. "I'll text her to come over."

"Yeah, we can tell whoever you want." Noah said.

Finn returned shortly after and about an hour later, Santana showed up.

"Hey." Santana smiled as she hugged Quinn. When they parted, she looked at Noah. "Is this the guy from the bar?"

"You told her about me?" Noah asked Quinn.

"I think she said you were the best sex of her life." Santana teased, smirking at Quinn.

"And now you've met Santana." Quinn noted. "Santana, this is Noah. Please don't scare him away."

"I don't scare easily." Noah promised.

"I'll do my best." Santana smiled. She turned to Quinn. "So what was so important that you needed me to come over?"

"Quinn and I have something we wanted to tell you." Noah began as he looked at Quinn.

"You guys should sit." Quinn added nervously. "And please don't say anything until we say what we need to say."

Finn and Santana looked at each other and slowly sat down on the couch, giving their attention back to Quinn and Noah.

"So..." Finn muttered.

"So." Noah repeated as he looked at Quinn.

"Noah and I..." Quinn took a deep breath as Noah grabbed her hand. "Are having a baby."
