Authors Note:

Hey guys! So I started this story a little while ago but I was too nervous to upload it! I finally decided to summon the courage, so here goes nothing! This story is set after senior year and everything that has happened up to the Christmas Episode in the show has happened in the story… Puck and Quinn are just good friends and Quinn is living in NYC. This chapter is really short, but future ones will be longer and more dramatic!

Please read and review and tell me if I should continue :) it would mean a lot to me.

Quinn checked herself in the mirror one last time before she headed out the door. She pulled down her dark grey fitted sweatshirt and grabbed her black sunglasses of the near by table, sliding the sleek frames onto her heart shaped face. She smiled at herself in the reflection, finally feeling at peace with herself and her life. She couldn't believe that she was actually in New York, going to University, with her former archenemy. It all felt a bit unbelievable but looking back, it was Quinn's senior year that had helped her become who she was. Although it started off a bit shaky with bright pink hair, a Ryan Seacrest tattoo, and a stupid plan about getting back custody of her daughter, senior year was ultimately the year that Quinn found herself and was able to accept her past. It hadn't been easy but with the help of a few people she had been able to move on. Out of everyone, Puck had helped her the most, he called her out on her selfishness, helped her deal with her issues, and even made her realize that she did the right thing in giving Beth up. They actually became really good friends, having understood each other better than anyone else, which surprised everyone including themselves. The Unholy Trinity came into existence again and Quinn actually became great friends with everyone in the glee club, even Rachel. With a little encouragement from Rachel and Kurt, she decided to take the plunge, leave Lima, Ohio behind and embark on a new adventure with her best friends in the city that never sleeps: New York. She had contemplated Yale for a while but in the end, she decided she wanted to go somewhere completely different and new. Flash forward a couple of weeks and here Quinn was, ready to go to her first New York football game and she was excited.

"Hey Quinn," Rachel called from the next room over, "are you ready to go? Finn is picking us up downstairs in 5 minutes!"

"Yeah, I'm ready, let's head down," Quinn replied, grabbing her purse from the couch and the keys from the kitchen table before joining Rachel at the door.

They continued to gab to each other as they made their way down to the main floor of their apartment building, reminiscing about junior year when they did the Thriller performance at half time. The pushed open the glass doors and walked into the fresh autumn air, inhaling the fresh scent of crumpled up leaves. Sure enough, Finn was waiting for them. He and Rachel had stayed together senior year and were still going strong, they clearly loved each and Finn had even joined Rachel for school in New York. Quinn finally realized that her and Finn were never meant to be, she only dated him for her popularity and it was clear how much he loved Rachel and that would never change. He gave Rachel a quick kiss on the lips before enveloping Quinn into a huge bear hug. She felt so grateful that her and Finn were still friends after everything that had happened, they had a sibling type relationship and she wouldn't change a thing.

"We should get going, Puck's meeting us there in 15 or so minutes," Finn said.

"Puck? I thought Blaine was coming to the game? Quinn asked.

"He was going to but found out that he had a family thing back in Ohio. I was talking to Puck the other day and he mentioned something about driving up here soon, so I told him that we had an extra ticket to the game and of course he agreed. He'll be here for a few days, so we'll have to go sightseeing or something"

Quinn smiled, she hadn't seen Puck since the mid-August when she had left Ohio for University and he had gone to Rhode Island to take musical arts. Even though the schools were not that far apart, homework and everything else seemed to interfere with their schedules. But, if she was being completely honest with herself, she had missed him. He was one of the few people that Quinn felt she could really confide in.
