Chapter 17
Quinn had left the warehouse where she had been with Rachel, at first said had told the brunette that she would walk all the way back to the house that was her home but Rachel had told her that Quinn was acting crazy. Crazier then she had ever done during this whole thing.
Rachel had driven the blonde back to the house but Quinn had managed to convince the criminal to let her out of the car a block or two from the house, even if Quinn was a spy she didn’t want anything bad to happen to Rachel and that would probably be the thing if Rachel had let her of just outside the house.
Quinn walked alone to the house she had a lot to think about and she wasn’t sure on how she should be acting around this and how to tell them the truth or if she should be lying, it was all almost too much for her.

Brittany was sitting on the couch and she was watching their boss walking back and forth in front of them talking for herself. The blonde had never seen the older woman act this was, it looked like she was stressed over something. Shouldn’t she be happy that Quinn was alright and that she was going to come back to them, Brittany for one was happy but at the same time she didn’t like the fact that Quinn had been lying to all of them.
Santana stood in front of a fire place, she knew that she had told Sue about this and now she needed to figure out how this situation could be used for good, because of the look that Ms. Sylvester had was anything but happy about this.
The look on the fourth member of the group, Kurt, that was a hard one to tell what he was thinking but there was probably something in the same lines as Santana was no one could be sure or maybe he had something totally different on his mind, like boys and who he would be taking to the endgame.
“This is--“ Sue said as she continued with her pacing. “This is not happening.” As the woman that was dressed in a red track suit looked up she saw the blonde that had been missing walking in the door dressed in her red, with and black uniform. “Are you kidding me?”
The silent in the room were even more present this time, it was almost unpleasant this time but Quinn didn’t say anything she knew better than that, she knew that it was for the best is she was just quiet for now and let Ms. Sylvester scream all the unpleasantries that she could think of at her before the blonde said anything.
“We conduct a nationwide manhunt for you…” Ms. Sylvester said as she looked at Quinn who just stood there with her arms and hands hanging on the side of her body, she was going to listen to the woman but at the same time act like a duck. “…and you are boning the suspect?”
“San, what bone is she talking about?” Brittany asked as she had walked up to the Latina as Sue had started to yell at Quinn, Santana didn’t answer the question, she was far more interested in seeing how Quinn would react to this. The dark haired girl almost wished that she had some kind of snacks this could actually turn out like some kind of movie.
“What did you think this was, a joke.” Sue yelled and she started to get red in her face, this was fun to watch, Santana looked over at Kurt to see how he was reacting to this.
During all of this Mr. Schue had entered the room too and he had Ms. Sylvester’s assistant with him and that would also be something that would be interesting to hear about hopefully Sue Sylvester would yell at him to with them present.
This was like a movie, was all that Santana could think of, and hopefully a good one too.
“let’s divert federal resources and man hours…” Sue said and looked at Quinn who still just stood there taking it all in she wasn’t going to break. “… so I can have my collegiate lesbian fling in style.”
Quinn was about to say something but before she had a chance she was interrupted by Ms. Sylvester. “I guess I should be glad that you couldn’t get pregnant or was a turkey baster involved too?”
“San, why is Ms. Sylvester talking about bones and turkeys?” Brittany asked as she looked at her friend.
“You don’t have to worry about that, it’s something between Q and Ms. Sylvester.” Santana said, she really wished that she had had those snacks right now.
“I was doing research.” Quinn said as she finally had had chance to say what she wanted to have said. Ms. Sylvester just looked at her and shook her head.
“I’ll bet.”
“San, Ms. Sylvester seems angry.” Brittany whispered to the Latina. “Do you think that she would react the same way if she found out about what we are doing?”
“Yes, so don’t say anything to her about that.” Santana whispered back. “So be quiet, I want to hear this.”
“Sure, thing research is that what it’s called now days. “Sue snapped at the blonde. “About how to best satisfy your needs and also how to get a known criminal to share their deepest secrets.”
Everyone in the room was silent, no one knew what they were going to say, this all seemed almost too much. There had never been a situation like this with anyone in the same position that Quinn was in at the school.
“Treason. Consorting with the enemy.” Sue started to rabble. “Aiding and abetting.” The four DEBS looked at her waiting for her to say something else or just yell at them, well at Quinn. “I’m going to be the laughingstock of the entire intelligence community.” All of this was said as she looked at Quinn.
“I’m going to send you so far away…” Sue said and stared at Quinn she needed to figure out what she was going to tell the blonde so that the girl would truly understand what she meant. “…that luxuries like toilet paper, diet coke and tanning privileges…” Quinn just looked at the woman in the tracksuit with an almost empty eyes. “…will just be as a distant dream to you.”
“Ms. Sylvester.” Santana said as she left her side by Brittany and walked up to the woman she had figured out what it was that she was going to say about this situation.
“Is somebody talking to me?” Sue asked as she turned away from the blonde that had been the main focus for her. “Because that would be extremely ill-advised right now.”
“Ms. Sylvester, this breach in our team is a huge embarrassment…” Santana said as she looked the director in the eyes. “…to you and the academy right?” Santana wanted to be sure of this before she vocalized the idea that she had.
“have I not been speaking the English language?” Ms. Sylvester asked, Santana could tell that this was a rhetorical question and she was glad that Brittany seemed to be busy with something and not really listening otherwise she would say something about that, that much did Santana know.
“Well there is a way that we can turn this all around.” Santana said, and the look of Ms. Sylvester’s face told her that she was on the right track.
“Explain.”
“Make Quinn DEB of the year during the endgame next week.” Santana said and looked at Ms. Sylvester; this had been something that she had tried to figure out during the time they had been discussing this. “Nobody knows what happened beside the group that is present in this room” And Santana looked around at all of them that was in the room and then too Ms. Sylvester. “What good would it do to send Quinn to Siberia? I would say nothing.”
All of this seemed to be sinking in for the older woman as Santana continued on with what she was saying. “Your pride and joy will be disgraced, and for what?”
That really caught Sue’s attention, maybe this young Latina was on to something, but she needed to know more about what she was planning before agreeing to anything that had to do with Quinn and her fling with a criminal.
“That’s right nothing.” Santana said as she had understood what Ms. Sylvester was after. “so here is what we are gonna do.”
Quinn herself wasn’t sure that this idea that Santana had was the best, she wasn’t sure that she wanted to be present during this, or that she wanted to be DEB of the year, she was no longer sure that she wanted to be a part of this. During all of this conversation she had started to think about all things that she had been through during the last couple of days that had involved Rachel, she had never felt so much alive and just being in this room for these couple of hours she had felt how the life she had started to get back was slowly being taken from her. Maybe she wasn’t caught out to be a spy.
The blonde looked around in the room and she could tell from the look at everybody that was in the room that they all wanted to be here. Her friends looked like the belonged in this line of work and they all looked happy, okay that might be somewhat a lie, Kurt looked bored but that was looked that he sported a lot of times. It was just who he was and if she was honest, the look on Brittany’s face as she was standing next to Santana was just a looked of admiration, Quinn had learned that there was something more going on between them and Quinn hoped that it would last and not that Santana would be going back and treating Brittany in a bad way.
Finn, well to be honest she had no idea why he was there, it was over between them and she had no will of going back together with him. He was a bit dim and she couldn’t hold a conversation with him, at least not the same way that she could with Rachel Berry and once again she was back with the brunette even if she didn’t want to think about her.
As Quinn looked at Mr. Schue and the redhead that she had no idea on what her name was she could see that there was some looks going on between them, she had a feeling that there was something going on there or at least going to start and she had still to figure out how her advisor was connected with the woman that Rachel had been on a date with because she knew that there was a connection there she was just not sure on what it was and she had a feeling that it would be of importance somewhere down the line. Quinn could just give all of them smiles as she listened to Santana trying to convince Ms. Sylvester that Quinn should be named DEB of the year even if everyone knew that there was girls that deserved it more than Quinn did. Somehow Santana had managed to convince the director that sometimes you need to sacrifice something that you deserve to make sure that it all will look perfect on the surface.
