i’ve loved living here for years and years but i have never been as proud to call manchester my home as i have been in recent times. true story.

[text]: Take a hint – I want nothing to do with you. 

QUINN: Too bad our child is half me, right?QUINN: Look, we both know we haven’t been the most responsible to each other. I have a boyfriend and we broke up months ago, we shouldn’t have ever acted otherwise. I don’t want to be the same person I was last year, and I can’t keep going behind his back. QUINN: I’m sorry if that hurts you but you can’t just ignore me. We have a daughter to take care of. Together.

[text]: I want to have sex in my car again before I put the car seat back in

QUINN: No offense, Puck, but why does your brain work this way? QUINN: Plus the reminder that we’d be having sex where our child sits really kills the mood. 

[text] Please stop putting yourself down I hate when you talk badly about yourself

The worst part about this was how inevitable it had all felt and Quinn wished things could have been different. They should have known when they got together because they pretended to be married for free drinks or when they got so drunk they thought getting married in Las Vegas was a good choice. Maybe if she had just decided to end the marriage, they wouldn’t have gotten this far and she wouldn’t have felt like her heart was being ripped from her chest because it was finally ending after years of trying.

“I loved every second you weren’t annoying me,” she smiled, trying to joke around with him because it was better than facing this reality. The two of them weren’t quitters, but there was no making this work when they both wanted different things. She was certain they hadn’t ever stopped wanting each other, this was just proof that sometimes that wasn’t enough to make a relationship work.

She looked down at the paper in front of her, slightly glad they had decided to do this together instead of just mailing paperwork between lawyers. There was no reason for this to be messy or drawn out longer than necessary. He could have their apartment on the East Coast and she’d get the dog, as much as she wished it were possible for them to split custody. It just didn’t seem possible to put him on an airplane for weekend visitations, but she’d never deny Puck if he asked to see him.

“You just need to sign and it’s done,” Quinn said softly, blinking quickly because the tears were welling up in her eyes at an alarming rate. “I didn’t think it was going to be this easy.” The meaning behind it probably coming out entirely wrong.

It seemed wrong that everything they had been through could be ended with a few signatures and she hated herself for allowing this to happen. If she had just stayed in New York instead of deciding that she needed to move to LA to have a career, things wouldn’t be this way. They wouldn’t have spent the last few months arguing and barely seeing each other because she wanted to become an actress. This mostly fell on her shoulders and she knew it would take a while before she stopped blaming herself for ruining the best thing in her life.

There was hesitation on Puck’s part and she knew he didn’t want this, probably even more than she didn’t. He had always been the one that gave in when things needed to be figured out and wondered if he hated her for taking so much. She watched as he ultimately signed where was needed and she brushed the tears that fell down her cheeks away before he could notice them. It didn’t seem like either of the lawyers in the room were that interested in being there longer than necessary and made themselves scarce once they realized they were no longer needed.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t have been better at this,” she finally said after a few minutes of silence, her gaze on the table because she couldn’t bring herself to look at him. “We both know you deserved better.”

Her hand moved to the necklace that still held her wedding ring and she unclasped it, sliding the ring off the chain before she sat it down on the table. There was no reason for her to keep the ring and she was honestly surprised he hadn’t run for the door the moment his signature was on the paper. Maybe it was finally setting in that they were officially no longer together - officially no longer a couple at all. It was something she was going to need some time to adjust to because she had been one part of ‘Quinn and Puck’ for so long, the need to find who Quinn Fabray was now as the furthest thing from her mind.

“Goodbye, Puck,” she said after a moment, her pace slow as she moved towards the door because maybe he’d tell her to stay. His mouth never opened to stop her and she didn’t stop walking until she reached the door to the stairs, her hand covering her mouth once it had closed behind her to try to hide the sobs that she couldn’t control.

“No relationship. No emotions. Just sex.”

As terrified as Aubrey was to agree to enter a relationship, it was moments like this that were quickly proving that it was all worth it. The two of them had been sleeping together for months and slowly it had turned into Aubrey practically living in his apartment. She knew they didn’t need to have a discussion about what was going on between the two of them and she liked that Alex didn’t ask. He knew she wasn’t sleeping with anyone else and that this meant something to her just by the changes she had made. Gone was the girl who enjoyed going out nightly and sleeping with whoever proved to be worth her attention that day. Now she had become someone who enjoyed quiet dinners and evenings filled with a glass of wine while the two of them worked on their whatever needed their attention that night.

She had planned to go back to her own apartment that night just to give Alex some space after putting up with her every night for the past week. Part of her missed Parker and she wanted to see if maybe he was interested in going out for a while before she went to sleep. It was Alex’s voice that stopped her movements as she headed towards the door after letting him know she’d just sleep in her own bed instead of waking him up in case she came in late. There was a moment where she felt her stomach twist in nervousness and she took a second before she turned around to look at him. She still sometimes had to fight the instinct to run from all of this before she ruined it and she couldn’t wait for the day those thoughts were completely gone.

“Then I’ll come back here,” she replied confidently, giving him another smile before she sat her bag and coat down on the chair. “I just didn’t want to wake you up because I know you have an early morning tomorrow.”

It wasn’t often she put someone else’s thoughts before herself and she knew Alex would realize she was attempting to show him that this was important to her. As scary was it was to open herself up to an entire new world of feelings, there was something excited about doing it with someone like Alex. He had made every effort to respect her wishes and still give her everything that he’d give someone that he was investing his time in. Maybe that’s why all of this had worked out so well for the two of them, but Aubrey wasn’t going to start questioning why she was suddenly getting everything that she could want out of life. The man in front of her couldn’t have been any more different from her and somehow the world brought the two of them together to create something really good.

“I hate the thought of waking up somewhere other than next to you, too,” she whispered as she leaned over the back of the couch to press a quick kiss against his cheek. “Try to go to sleep a little early because I already know I’m going to be waking you up when I get home.”

“I’m okay,” Allie responded quickly, even though her eyelashes were wet and gave her away. Puck, Cody, Cami, and Steve- Akoni had been reclaimed by his rehabilitated mother a few months back- all looked a little bewildered at the sight of a teary Allie, especially in her blue sundress and heels, hair curled without the help of saltwater for once. “I’m just really happy for all of you.”

None of them really understood why she’d turned down her foster father’s offer of adoption, except for Puck, and even he tried to talk her out of it. For most foster kids, the first and foremost wish was to go back to their parents, and if that’s wasn’t the option, it was to find new ones. Puck had argued that he was a lot less important for Allie to have than a family, but the thing was that Allie hadn’t given up on her biological one. And she couldn’t give up on Puck, either. (And she’d secretly hoped, that she and Puck would stay together, so she wouldn’t have to be adopted to consider them her family.) But that didn’t mean it was easy to watch them all get their wishes granted without her. 

Puck nudged her with his elbow as means of encouragement, and Steve cleared his throat and announced that they were going out to eat as a celebration, and led the way out of the courthouse, leaving Puck and Allie to hang back. “I would’ve never agreed to this if I thought you’d regret it,” He murmured to her, making her remember the night after Steve’d had offered to adopt them. They’d both asked for time to think and wound up reconvening on the beach, Allie crying out that they couldn’t be siblings and Puck saying that this was it, this was his last chance, his dad wasn’t coming back for him. His answer to Steve was going to decide if he spent every holiday alone or if he’d come back here every December. If someone was going to call him on his birthday or not. Allie wanted desperately to tell him that she’d always call him on his birthday, but she knew that wasn’t enough. She wanted to be his home, but they’d both learned to not trust people to stay with them. He needed this so much more than she did, she realized. So she gave it up. “I don’t, it was the right decision. I just didn’t expect it to hit me like it did.” The blonde glanced over to him, dressed nicely in a navy suit, and smiled softly. “When we leave for California, I’ll be doing what I’ve wanted to do my whole life and we can finally be together. That’s all that matters.”
