12. Chapter 12

Rachel braced her hands on the bathroom sink, trying to get her anger under control. She didn't consider herself a violent person by any means, but right now she wanted nothing more than to go over to the Fabray house and give Quinn's father the beating of a lifetime for hurting his daughter.

Worse though was the fact that Quinn actually thought she deserved it. Rachel was determined to make sure her girlfriend knew that wasn't the case, but she realized it was going to take time. After all, a lifetime of being told otherwise wasn't going to be undone in one night, and that thought alone fueled Rachel's desire to comfort Quinn and show her how amazing she was.

Letting out a long breath in an attempt to push down her anger, she released her hold on the sink and went back to her room to rejoin Quinn, who was currently resting on her bed with an ice pack pressed against her right side. Protectiveness surged through her at the sight, and she unconsciously clenched her fists. She never wanted to see Quinn in this position ever again.

"You okay?" Quinn asked.

"I'm fine," Rachel replied, once again trying to get her anger under control.

Quinn raised a questioning eyebrow, obviously not believing her, but said nothing.

"Do you need anything?"

"You. In bed," she said with a smirk.

"You're incorrigible," Rachel said with playful smile and a roll of her eyes, but still did as Quinn wanted and settled down beside her on the bed.

"I think charming is the word you're looking for," Quinn argued as Rachel cuddled into her left side, mindful to avoid touching her bruised ribcage.

Rachel laughed. "Right," she nodded. "Charming," she agreed as she pressed a kiss to Quinn's neck before shifting upwards. "Beautiful," she murmured as her lips moved to the corner of Quinn's mouth. Her eyes locked on Quinn's hazel, shining with gratitude and trust. "Perfect," she breathed against her girlfriend's lips, which met hers in a slow, languid kiss.

Rachel knew instinctively that Quinn was done talking for the night and that the best comfort she could provide her girlfriend right now was this closeness. It also soothed Rachel. Knowing that Quinn was here with her, safe in her home and letting her take care of her, filled her with incredible relief and abated her anger.

She hoped it would be enough for the days to come. She hoped that she could be enough to protect Quinn.

"Sup, Q?" Puck greeted Quinn in the hallway.

"Hey, Puck," she replied easily.

"Tried calling you Saturday night, but it went straight to voicemail."

"I turned my phone off. I was a little… preoccupied with Rachel," she explained with a smirk, but internally, her stomach dropped at the thought of the messages that were probably waiting for her.

He looked at her knowingly. "Sleepover?" he asked suggestively.

She didn't reply, but her expression said it all.

"Lucky," Puck said. "Almost makes me wish I was a chick. Then parents wouldn't think twice about me spending the night." He glanced over her shoulder.
