So this really came to me, literally five minutes ago. I was inspired by last week's episode and of course the promo for next week's! I just kind of thought of it. I hope you enjoy!

Shelby was in her apartment, cuddling Beth, smiling as her little girl giggled with her mom. Shelby loved this girl more than anyone in the world. She kissed the little girl's nose and continued their well loved snuggle session.

She was interrupted when a knock came at her door. She held Beth at her hip and walked over to answer.

When Shelby opened the door, she smiled.

Puck.

He had been stopping over almost every day to see the little girl that he was in love with.

"Hi Noah, come in," Shelby said with a smile.

Puck smiled and walked in. He looked at Beth, who was currently staring at him with a smile that made his heart melt. Sure he had a tough personality 95% of the time, but he was totally vulnerable when it came to his daughter.

"Daddy's going to hold you, ok Beth?" Shelby said, gently handing her to Puck.

Puck kissed his little girl's nose and hummed a meaningless tune as swayed back and forth. "I missed you Bethy." She responded by reaching up and touching his nose.

"I guess you missed me too then," he said.

Shelby smiled at the father/daughter interaction. Puck said he would do anything to be in her life, and Shelby knew, that that promise was going to be kept. "I was just um, washing the dishes when you came," Shelby said.

Puck adjusted Beth on his hip and walked over to where Shelby was bending down, pulling the dishes from the dish washer and putting them in the cabinets above.

"I can do that if you want," Puck said. This wasn't usually like him. He cared about Shelby, and he wanted her to know that. He wanted her to know that she's not alone. And she never will be.

Shelby looked up. She smiled at the young teenager. He wasn't just a student at McKinley or the father of her daughter. He was a respectful gentlemen to her, and more importantly, a great man to Beth. "Um sure," she said walking towards him. She gently took her daughter. "We'll be over there," she said, walking to the couch.

Puck smiled and took over her former position in front of the dishwasher. He took out each plate, bowl, glass, fork, and spoon, and put them away in the proper place. He was a few dishes in when he looked to where Shelby and Beth were on the couch. Shelby was cradling Beth and reading her a story.

He continued to put away the clean dishes for a while. He just thought.

All Puck wanted right now was to be in Beth's life so much. He loved the girl so much. At first, he wanted his baby back in his arms, with Quinn as Beth's mother.

But as much as he thought about it, Shelby was amazing to his daughter. She was compassionate, loving, beautiful, hot.

No Puck, he thought. Don't go there. Shelby isn't some woman to have sex with one time for my rep.

Puck truly cared about Beth and Shelby. He wasn't going to let anyone come in between what the two of them shared.

His thoughts were interrupted when he heard light snoring coming from the family room. He walked over slowly to find Beth asleep in Shelby's arms. And Shelby, she was sleeping too.

Puck gently picked up his baby girl and brought her to bed. He tucked her in and kissed her little blonde haired head goodnight.

He walked back in and saw that Shelby was only wearing sweatpants and a short sleeve shirt. He picked up the blanket on the back of the couch and draped it over her obviously shivering form.

Honestly, he really wanted to just lean in and kiss her forehead. He wanted to be the comforting man that he needed to be to be a father of Beth. He felt some sort of protective instinct wash over him. He wanted to protect not only Beth, but also Shelby from any danger.

And with that, he left her apartment.
