"Random question," Rachel said, turning to Quinn during a commercial.
"Can I give a random answer?" Quinn asked, grabbing a handful of popcorn from the bowl.
"No," Rachel said. "We've been roommates for a few months now, and I think it's time we got to know each other better. Became friends."
"We aren't friends now?" Quinn asked, clearly surprised.
"We're acquaintances who share an apartment," Rachel said, not ready to let her hopefulness at Quinn's words show. "But I would like us to be friends."
"We're friends," Quinn said firmly. "I wouldn't invite an acquaintance into the bathroom while I took a bubble bath."
"Really?" Rachel said, smiling.
"Really," Quinn said. "What's your question?"
"No boyfriend?" Rachel asked. "Or you're hiding him very well."
"No boyfriend," Quinn said. "Had several at Yale, but it was mostly about having someone to do things with. And sex."
"So, not serious?"
"Not serious," Quinn agreed.
"What about now?" Rachel asked.
"Don't like being a trophy," she said.
"Trophy?"
"They want to date Lucy Cue," Quinn said. "I want them to date me."
"Oh," Rachel murmured. She decided not to bring up McKinley, where Cheerio Quinn seemed the epitome of the perfect trophy girlfriend.
Note: Story Reminder - Lucy Cue was Quinn's alias when she modeled that year to pay for her PhD.
