Where love leads us-Faberry

Chapter 12

It was moments like this where Quinn figured she was luckier than she even admitted to herself. Moments when she felt like what was unfolding around her was just a dream that she was drifting through, not putting any effort into its events yet watched as they played out perfectly. She was laying in bed on her back, her eyes still closed as she slowly breathed in deeply. The sheets were cool on her skin despite the rising heat of the summer morning outside. There was even a chill to the air that sent goosebumps down her arms but relaxed her even further into this living dream.

She wiggled slightly to sink into the covers a little more but was met with a soft, questioning moan. As soon as she stopped moving Rachel took her turn to adjust, nudging herself closer, one arm and leg resting over Quinn while her lips lightly brushed against the blonde's neck. The slow release of the actress's breath began to tickle.

"Why haven't we done this before?"

Rachel didn't answer until Quinn turned her head slightly, indicating she was waiting for an actual answer. "Done what?"

"Sleep in and do this."

"Well, we used to do it frequently actually. Before we had kids that is."

Quinn nodded slightly before her eyes flew open. "Speaking of..."

"Beth took them already."

Instantly the building tension fled from the photographer and they both embraced the silence again. The boys had really taken to Beth. She had an easier time getting them to do anything. Not to say they gave Quinn and Rachel a hard time, but it seemed like they constantly had to use the parent tone while Beth could just be herself. But it was still peace of mind to know that there was another person in this world to help protect the ones she cared for. "So what was the deciding factor?"

In a sign of rebellion to their conversation and abandonment of their peaceful sleep Rachel wiggled closer before slipping her exposed arm under the sheet that covered their bare bodies, hoping to feed off her wife's body heat. She smiled as she felt Quinn's stomach muscles jump at the cold contact. "Deciding factor for what?"

"For you to decide that our family time was allowed to be interrupted with sleeping in and the boys going to the studio. I promised to take them to the theater today."

"And you still can." The actress argued tiredly, knowing how the day was going to play out even if Quinn didn't. That was her role in the marriage. "You're taking Beth out to lunch so you can then just pick up the boys when you take her back to the studio. Then you can pick me up here or I can meet you there since I might already be out informing Scott of my decision to begin develop on new dreams and goals. But all of that comes after you take me out to breakfast."

Quinn was already smiling as she absently played with Rachel's hair. The actress played her role well, just like the natural she was. "I had no idea I had so much on my plate today."

"Mhm." Was the only response she received at first. "Breakfast first. Full plate of breakfast."

Unable to keep herself from smiling at the fact their passion filled night had worn her wife out so much, the photographer tilted her head and kissed her forehead, soaking in the feel and smell of her lover. "So where are we going?"

"Bagels. I want giant, massive bagels."

"With vegan cream cheese?"

"Mhm." Rachel lifted her hand and motioned it in a circle. "All over the place. All up in there."

Furrowing her brow Quinn began to vibrate from her laughter. "You haven't by chance been spending extra time with Santana at the restaurant have you? You know, all up in there?"
