Author Notes: [ Table] Written for rhap_chan, who requested the pairing for the Prompt "Hand Holding" on a table I created. This actually turned out more angsty than the prompt would allow...and I was actually intending this piece to be a happier one, but what the muses want. The muses get I suppose lol. I know the title is lacktastic...I really hate coming up with them. Sorry. All mistakes are my own.

Sweet Comfort

The tears refused to stop. A small part of her was worried if this continued she would only proceed to make herself sick, but there wasn’t a big enough part that cared. A large part of her wanted that, the darkest side of her that she always hid. It wondered if anyone would truly care. She could get herself sick, not have to worry about anything. Maybe it would kill her.

Quinn Fabray shook her head. No. She couldn’t think like that. She wasn’t ready to die. She wasn’t ready to leave everyone. She couldn’t. Not like she left her daughter. Sure Beth had been a complete accident, but the little girl was still a part of her. And she had made the most heart wrenching decision a mother could make. Her little girl would be just fine. Shelby would take good care of her. At least she hoped.

“Quinn?” the soft, worried voice drew the former cheerleaders’ attention.

The blonde quickly brushed away the tears from her cheeks but it did nothing. The tears continued to fall. She chose to ignore them and gave Mercedes her biggest smile. It failed to reach her ears liked she hoped.

“Mercedes, hi,” she greeted as the dark skinned diva sat beside her.

Mercedes frowned, “Girl, are you okay?”

“I’m fine,” Quinn hastily replied.

Mercedes shook her head, “Don’t lie to me. I can see you’re far from okay. Is it about the baby?”

Quinn closed her eyes as she leaned back in the chair, “Beth,” she said with a shaky breath.

Before the blonde could say another word, Mercedes arms were wrapped tightly around her thin frame. The tears she had wished to stop and tried to ignore overtook her. The two girls sat in silence as Quinn gripped onto her friend for dear life, crying into her shoulder. Mercedes rested her head against the blondes’ hair as one hand trailed up and down her back in a soothing manner. Her other hand laced their fingers together.

It seemed like forever before Quinn’s sobs subsided and the tears finally came to an end. Quinn slowly draw away but Mercedes kept their hands locked in a simply embrace.

“I’m sorry,” Quinn giggled hollowly as she brushed away the remains of her tears.

Mercedes offered a small smile, “You don’t need to apologize.”

The blonde nodded, leaning forward to rest her forehead against the other girls, “Thank you, Mercedes, for everything.”

The other girl’s eyes softened, she pressed a soft kiss to Quinn’s lips. The former Cheerios eyes’ widened though she gave the girl a sincere smile.

“Come on, Blondie, I think this calls for a little shopping trip,” Mercedes left no room for any arguments as she quickly pulled the blonde from her chair after securing their bags in her free hand, not once releasing their hands. Quinn allowed herself to be softly pulled from the choir room, smiling softly at their joined hands. She was beginning to wonder when Lady Lucky had finally decided to smile on her.

End.
