AUTHORS NOTE: This is meant to be read in conjunction with Worth. I started out writing from Quinn's perspective on a whim. I've always planned to tell the story from Will's side as well, but didn't think it was appropriate to let both character's have a voice in Worth. So now you can get a little insight to Will's thoughts!

Will checks his phone for about the twentieth time that evening. Nothing, no missed calls, no missed texts, just a picture of the glee kids he haphazardly took one day after rehearsal. He can't help but smile seeing the big grins on their faces. At least he has the glee kids, if nothing else.

He was hoping he would hear from Emma. Will thought just maybe, she'd changed her mind about giving him his space. She was probably right, but Will was never really good at being alone. He liked someone to talk to. Someone to come home to, someone to snuggle up to at night. He liked the feeling of being needed. It was true that Terri had grown into a woman he no longer recognized, but he longed for the young homecoming queen he'd made so many happy memories with.

Will surveys his apartment. It's a freaking mess. Without Terri there, he just hasn't wanted to touch anything, including dirty dishes or strewn papers. He thinks that maybe if he leaves everything as it was, that time would somehow reset itself and he'd get his happy marriage back. Will sighs. He knows that's not going to happen and he resolves to start cleaning the next day.

The Spanish tests are piling up on his coffee table, begging to be graded. He's put it off because honestly he was afraid he was going to mark all the students down to fit his mood. Life goes on. He sits down in front of the papers and picks up the felt tip pen that teeters on the top of the stack. As he starts making some headway, he realizes this proves to be a great distraction. He laughs when he gets to the vocabulary portion of Finn's test. Will had put various images of objects on the test with a blank space for the student to correctly identify them. Finn just repeated "una cosa, una cosa, una cosa" down the whole section. Translation: a thing, a thing, a thing. It's clever, and he wants to give him a point just for that, but it wouldn't be right. He writes a snippet comment about Finn's creativity on the side and gives him a zero for the section.

He can't blame the kid, he's been going through a rough time. First, thinking he was the father to Quinn Fabray's baby, and now realizing that his best friend was in fact the father and not him. Will imagines that Finn feels relief at knowing he doesn't have that same responsibility looming over him, but he might feel a little sad that he's not going to be a parent, no matter how scary that might be. Will knows a lot about that last sentiment. That was probably the hardest thing about Terri leaving. The sinking realization that he wasn't going to be a father, this time, or anytime soon. He sighs, sets the pen down, and runs his hands through his curly mop of hair. He was really looking forward to being a father. At first he was a little nervous, not sure he was going to live up to everyone's expectations. But the moment he saw that child on the ultrasound, his heart skipped a beat and everything came into focus. Another opportunity that has escaped him, which seems to be a theme that constantly runs throughout his life. First his dream of a musical theatre career, then his hopes of becoming a father, and now his hopes at developing a relationship with Emma. Everything just seems to slip out of his grasp.

He jumps when he hears a knock at the door. He checks the watch that Terri had given him as an anniversary present. It's 11:00 PM. Who the hell would drop by so late? Instantly his mind goes to Emma. She's changed her mind! He has a chance! He gets up suddenly and takes care to check himself out in the mirror before he answers the door. A little disheveled, but maybe Emma will find that sexy. He takes a deep breath and opens the door, ready to embrace Emma in a long hug. He's shocked to find Quinn Fabray standing there in front him, eyes like a lost puppy, tears streaming down her cheeks. Well this is sure a surprise.
