"Beth's asleep." Quinn announced as she entered the bedroom and sat down beside Finn on the bed.

"Did you call him?" Finn asked.

"He's gonna sign everything." Quinn said softly, biting her lip.

"That's a good thing." Finn noted. "Isn't it?"

"It is." Quinn nodded slowly. "He made things easy for us."

"But?" Finn encouraged Quinn.

"How can he not care about her at all?" Quinn blurted. "She's my whole world."

"Because you're a good mom." Finn reminded Quinn. "You always have been."

"I'm sorry." Quinn apologized as she got up. "I should be focusing on what this means for our family."

"You're allowed to be upset." Finn told Quinn. "Come here."

Quinn sat back down beside Finn.

Finn pulled Quinn into her arms and held her.

"I'm relieved." Quinn clarified as she took a deep breath and looked at Finn. "Thank you for loving her. You're the reason she'll never have to feel like she wasn't enough for her dad."

Finn smiled.

"You were always meant to be her dad." Quinn added as she kissed him. "I love you."

"I love you, too."

-

"Morning." Finn said. "Feeling any better?"

Quinn nodded.

"Good." Finn smiled.

"Where's Beth?" Quinn asked.

"She's at school." Finn answered.

"I'm gonna call the lawyers and tell them to call me as soon as they hear." Quinn decided.

"They will." Finn promised. "Just give them a chance."

Quinn took a deep breath and exhaled slowly as she sat down at the counter.

"Here." Finn said, putting a breakfast plate in front of Quinn.

Quinn looked at Finn.

"Eat something." Finn requested as he made himself a plate and sat down beside Quinn. "Please."

"Thank you." Quinn replied softly. "And thank you for taking Beth to school and letting me sleep."

Finn smiled.

"I've been thinking." Quinn began.

"Eat." Finn said again.

"I will." Quinn promised. "But I've been thinking about work. And what you said about slowing down since there's been so much going on."

Finn nodded.

"I wanna slow down and spend the summer with you and Beth." Quinn continued. "We can take trips and plan our honeymoon, and just be in love."

"That sounds nice." Finn stated. "We can do that when things slow down."

"Yeah."
