They chatted through the rest of lunch, catching up on each other’s lives. Carly was excited that the end of the school year was edging ever closer. After that, she only had one year left. She was more than ready to be done.

Jemma hinted that things were progressively getting more serious with Bart. Though at one time she proclaimed she’d happily be single forever that no longer seemed the case. She seemed completely happy with him.

Quinn told them both that she’d begun the tedious task of job-searching. She also admitted to Jemma, though she asked her to keep the news to herself, that she and Luke had looked at a house. Jemma didn’t seem the least bit surprised. If anything, Quinn was relieved to realize, she seemed to have the same attitude as Carly.

“You and Luke?” Jemma said. “Your happiness is long overdue.”

Carly nodded her agreement.

After the bill was paid and plans were tentatively made for getting together again soon, Carly and Quinn headed back to their parents’ house.

“Carly,” Quinn began, “I am so sorry for what I said back there. It was completely uncalled for.” She glanced over at Carly who was staring out the passenger window as they rolled to a stop at the stop sign.

“Oh, what?” Carly asked as she swung her gaze back around. Her voice was a bit too high-pitched. A bit too innocent. “You mean the comment that basically implied I sleep around?”

Quinn sighed. “I actually wasn’t implying you, believe it or not,” Quinn honestly told her. “I could tell by the look on your face, you thought I was. But I wasn’t. I just meant in general. So many people just hop into bed together. And then when you questioned me on it, I kind of snapped. Because to be honest, while I’m not the kind of girl who’s ever done the first date thing...Maybe I’m…” She hesitated, wondering how to continue. She wasn’t good at talking about this kind of thing.

“You’re…?” Carly prompted.

“Maybe I’m wishing I was just a little bit like that kind of girl,” Quinn finally blurted out as the car got moving again.

Carly squirmed in her seat. “Are you saying you want to and Luke doesn’t?”

Quinn made a face. “Not exactly. I’m saying we both want to, and I’m not sure why we haven’t.”

“Oh,” Carly said, her tone had instantly brightened. “I get it now. You’re snippy because you’re feeling sexually frustrated.”

“What?!” Quinn cried. “No!”

Carly only laughed. “It’s okay, Quinn. It’s me. You can tell me anything. I don’t judge, remember?”

“Alright,” Quinn said with a laugh of her own. “Yeah, maybe that’s part of it.”

“Do you think that Betsy will move in? With Jesse, I mean, when Luke moves out?” Carly wondered.

Quinn hadn’t told Carly about the conversation they’d had the night they’d all gone out. In fact, Quinn went out of her way to avoid bringing up Betsy at all. She shrugged. “I really don’t know.” She cast a wary glance at her sister and decided to go for full honesty because that’s what she would want, if she’d been asking the question.
