"Thanks again for letting us crash the Hudson / Hummel Christmas." Quinn said. "It was so good seeing all of you, but I should get Beth home."

"The Hudson / Hummel / Fabray Christmas." Carole corrected Quinn. "It was so good seeing you and Beth, too, honey. Have a good night."

"Merry Christmas, Quinn." Kurt smiled as he hugged Quinn. "It was really nice having you and Beth join us."

"Thank you." Quinn smiled back as they parted. She thanked Blaine and said goodbyes to Carole and Burt.

"I'm gonna head home, too." Finn decided, shaking Burt and Blaine's hands goodbye. He hugged his mom and Kurt, ruffling Kurt's hair as they parted. "Let me get our coats."

"Okay." Quinn said, looking at Beth, who was asleep on the couch. "Beth."

"Oh, honey, don't wake her up." Carole told Quinn. "Finn can help you with her."

Quinn nodded as Finn returned. She put on her coat and held onto Beth's. "You wanna take her?"

"Sure." Finn nodded back, carefully scooping Beth up. "Night, guys."

"Night." Quinn repeated. "Merry Christmas."

"Merry Christmas."

Quinn and Finn walked out of Kurt and Blaine's apartment and started heading home.

"I'm really glad you two came." Finn told Quinn. "I hope you had a fun day."

"I did." Quinn nodded. "I hope you did, too."

"Yeah, I did." Finn repeated. "Beth seemed to really enjoy all the food. And the presents."

"Yeah." Quinn agreed. "Yeah, I'm just glad we could make it special for her."

"Me, too." Finn nodded.

When they reached their apartment, Quinn unlocked the door and led the way in. She locked the door behind Finn.

"I'm gonna go put her to bed." Finn decided, excusing himself.

Quinn took off her coat and shoes, putting them away as Finn returned.

"Finn." Quinn said softly.

"Yeah, Quinn?" Finn wondered.

"Wanna watch a movie?" Quinn asked.

"Die Hard?" Finn suggested.

"That's not a Christmas movie." Quinn argued.

"Yes it is." Finn insisted.

"Fine." Quinn gave in. "You can start it while I take off my makeup and get changed."

"Okay."

-

"Quinn." Finn said softly, gently nudging her. "You're falling asleep."

"Uh uh." Quinn muttered.

"You sound like Beth." Finn noted. "If you're tired, we can go to bed. You've been up all day."

"I wanna finish the movie." Quinn said. "There's not too much left."

"We can finish it in the morning." Finn offered.

"I don't want Beth watching it." Quinn shook her head. "Let's just finish it now."

"Okay." Finn nodded, fixing the blanket and putting his arm around Quinn, who then curled up closer to him.

Quinn gently cupped Finn's chin and kissed him.

Finn smiled when they parted. "I thought you wanted to finish the movie."

"Let's go inside."
