Rachel squeezes her hand and she's brought back from her thoughts as she looks to her smiling face, the diva leaning in to whisper in her ear, "I think it's safe to say we're finally acting like a family. And no one messes with family."
The rest of the school day goes by pretty tame, with the random wink or grin to Quinn from members of the Glee club and by the time Glee practice comes around Quinn is sure she's received more winks and grins and arms squeezes than she's ever received in one day.
Walking into the choir room, she takes a seat up front next to the other two cheerios; surprisingly they're one of the firsts to arrive.
Quickly following her in however is the tiny diva, "Good afternoon cheerios."
Santana rolls her eyes as Brittany jumps up to give her a proper hello, "B, you just saw her a few minutes ago."
Stepping away from hugging Rachel, the blonde turns and faces Santana making her way back to her seat, pulling the diva with her, placing her in the seat between Quinn and the Latina, while she goes to the seat on the other side of Santana, "Yea but I like my personalized," she glances at Rachel, making sure she used the right word, upon receiving a smile and a quick nod, she continues, "Ray hugs. They're awesome."
Quinn smiles at the exchange as Rachel replies, "And I like giving you your personalized hugs. You're a really good hugger."
Brittany nods, "I know."
Soon more members start filing in and they chatter amongst themselves until Mr. Schue walks in, "Alright. I need to know who is doing this to Finn."
The whole club becomes so quiet you could hear the people in the next room breathing.
"Seriously guys, you're a team. You're supposed to stick up for each other. If you know who's doing this to him you guys need to come forward and help him out."
Seeing that no one was coming forward, he faces the blonde head cheerio, "Quinn? Why would anyone be after your boyfriend?"
The diva's head snaps towards the blonde as soon as the question leaves his mouth. The blonde's face hardens slightly, "Why wouldn't someone be after that cheating pile of filth?"
Mr. Schue immediately blanches at that, "Excuse me?"
Quinn for her part folds her arms across her chest and raises and eyebrow, "He cheated on me. If you're expecting me to be sympathetic towards him then you're looking in the wrong place. I'm actually really glad someone showed him up. When I find out who did it, that person is going to be thanked beyond belief. Since it seems to be that he's a cheating asshole, why wouldn't anyone 'be after' him?"
"He cheated? On you?"
The surprise is quite evident in his voice and facial expression. Plus if no one noticed he's surprised and shocked, the fact that he overlooked the use of the word 'asshole' sure gave it away.
Rachel immediately jumps in, "Mr. Schue this is quite a sensitive topic. Maybe perhaps we could just continue with the class. I think that would be the best course of action."
The room doesn't put up a fight at Rachel's suggestion and the Glee Coach can't find anything else to say so he simply nods and starts the class, albeit slightly rocky at first, with the new piece of information still making his head real.
Quinn shoots a grateful smile towards the brunette and mouths a sincere 'thank you', who gives her one of her own smiles in return.
Santana, catching the exchange, subtly nudges the brunette and smirks at her when she widens her eyes at her. That being the brunette's attempt to tell her to stop.
