WHAT IF, Finchel never got back together in season two, and Rachel stayed with Puck, and got pregnant senior year. :O now their daughter is 4 years old, and she's a single parent still madly in love with Finn, trying to get her Broadway career going?
Well I'm trying that notion here and now. :D hope you like it.
"MOMMY MOMMY! Wake up!"
The little 3'3 ft. tall four year old, brown headed girl screamed at her mom, who was sound asleep on the brown leather sofa.
"Sorry baby I dozed off! Is your movie over yet?" Rachel replied
"No mommy, but daddy is knocking on the door"
*BANG BANG*
"I WANT MY DAGHTER! WHERE THE F*** IS SHE!"
"Sophia open the door for daddy baby!" the man shouted threw the wooden door.
Rachel looks into her daughters gum ball sized brown eyes, seeing nothing but fear. Sophia was used to this, her dad always showed up uninvited, banging at the door. He showed up for his weekly visits a few weeks late.
"Baby, go into your room, and shut your door, mommy will be in there in one minute"
As Rachel could hear her daughter's tiny feet skipping down the wooden floor and closed her door, Rachel opened the main door.
"Noah, what do you want?" Rachel said opening the door only half way.
"I want my daughter, okay. Can we be civil about this?"
"You were to pick her up two weeks, ago NOAH! It's not my fault you don't take care of your daughter or even care. Leave now please" Rachel said as she began to shut the door.
"You know what Rachel, fuck you!" Noah said as he began to walk away.
"Yeah and with that attitude you'll never get to see her!"
"Please just let me come see her for one second, Rach please."
"Don't call me that puckerman! If you stop cussing, hollering and calm down, for a minute you can."
"But you have to promise; that you will start seeing her regularly you can't just pop by whenever you want to. It's not healthy for her.
"I got it I will promise"
"Honestly Noah."
"Scouts honor!" Noah says he puts his index finger and middle finger up.
Rachel looks at Noah, and opens the door and invites her ex inside.
"Phia, come out, and see daddy" Rachel yells.
Sophia comes out running from her room, screaming "DADDY DADDY!"
When Noah does visit his daughter he's a good dad. Tea parties are there favorite things to do.
Sophia instantly dragged her dad to her princess themed bedroom, and sat him down at her Dora table.
"Daddy, why didn't you come by last time and get me? Mommy said you were too busy with girls" Sophia said being way smart for a four year old then one would think.
"Well next time tell your mommy to be quite, I was working on my bike with Uncle Finn, he said hi and he misses you."
"Daddy can we go to your house? I miss Uncle Finn, and SPIKE!" Sophia said all excited over her bulldog at her dads she hasn't seen forever.
"Not today hunny, but I promise daddy will be over next weekend to pick you, Spike misses you too!" Noah says as his four year old starts giggling at the concept of her puppy missing her.
Rachel was in the hallway listening to the lovely conversation of her ex and her daughter. That was the most important thing to her, was knowing that Sophia knew who her dad was and got to see him as much as possible.
As Rachel began walking into the living room, she started thinking how she got to this point, with Noah. As she rested back on the sofa she started foreshowing her senior year of high school. See High School wasn't the easiest thing for Rachel to go through after her and her high school sweetheart broke up. Junior year, she was madly in love with her boyfriend for two years. She planned on moving to NYC and having big dreams of her own making it on the Broadway stage with Finn by her side of course.
But things got rocky, her and Finn went their separate ways. That was the biggest and hardest thing she's ever gone through to this day of being twenty-two years old.
Neither she nor Finn ever left Ohio, Puck and Finn owned a big tire shop, it was the number one selling auto shop in Ohio.
Sophia was very fond of Finn; he was her uncle, to her. He always played with her and sometimes picked her up when Puck couldn't or when he was too busy being a womanizer. Rachel and Finn hardly talk, they are still madly in love with each other, but Finn couldn't do that to Puck, knowing that's his baby's mom, even though Finn and Rachel will always and have always had a much closer bond then Rachel and Puck would ever have. Finn was hurt by Rachel but still wanted her in his life, from a distance and weirdly enough that's sort of how Rachel felt. If they couldn't be together and it hurt them too much to be best friends again, why not be acquaintances?
If you skipped back four years ago on prom night, you would understand how this all happened. Well it started like this.
Finn and Rachel have been broken up for about 4 months, he asked his ex-girlfriend Quinn to go to prom with him and she did. Puck asked Rachel to go, and knowing that he's Finns best friend she wanted to make him jealous, she succeeded that very well.
Skip to Prom night, a full 3 hours of dancing with Puck while staring at Finn and Quinn, wanting to up-chuck at the sight of the two together.
"Come on baby, let's go to the room and get some privacy" Puck pleaded to Rachel
"Okay, but no funny business!" Rachel said smiling at Puck as they kissed.
Rachel wasn't in love with Puck, she liked him a lot yes, and cared for him deeply, she wouldn't deny him that. But in love? Hell no.
As their lips escaped her eyes pinned to Finns who was standing beside Puck awkwardly awaiting a chance to speak to Puck.
Finn was still pissed as hell at Puck for dating his ex-girlfriend, and taking her to prom. But he thought it was time to move on and if they wanted to be together, so be it.
After Puck and Finn exchanged meaningless words Puck told Finn they'd be back later. Finn tried to convince him to stay longer, hoping they weren't going to sneak away to a hotel room. But Puck wouldn't budge on the idea of the two being alone.
Rachel never imagined in a million years that her child's father would be Noah Puckerman, #1 Lima Loser. And that as many times as her and Finn had sex, one time having sex with Puck, buzzed off wine coolers on prom night, she would have gotten pregnant. Never imagined. Even though Sophia is all that she would wished her child to be and how prefect and beautiful she is she would never ever trade her for the world. Puck helped her make a masterpiece of a human being, as much wrong he's done in his life, she's the one right thing he's ever done. Has she ever wished Finn was Sophia's father? Duh. But is it wonderful that he actually is in her life and she knows who he is? Amazing.
Finn was actually the first one at the hospital for Sophia's birth. Where was Puck? Who knows? He did show up eventually, about 2 minutes before Sophia was introduced to the world.
"MOM!" Sophia started to nudge at her mom's arm, as tears rolled down Rachel's face.
"Yea baby?" Rachel said as she sniffled and wiped away her tears casually so her baby didn't see her crying.
"Daddy said tomorrow I can come to his house and play with Spike and Uncle Finny, is that okay?" Sophia asked her mom all jittery of excitement.
"I'll have to talk to your dad, but that seems okay with me sweetie."
Rachel said as her daughter ran back into the room to tell her dad.
Two minutes later out walks Noah, asking Rachel the same question.
"If you show up on time Noah, I don't mind, I have to work at 4:00 so try to be here earlier then 3, so I know you're going to show."
"I will Rachel. Come here Soph give daddy a kiss, I will see you tomorrow okay?"
"Okay daddy!" Sophia said as gave her dad a hug and kiss and ran back into her room to finish her lavish tea party all by herself.
As the adults were alone, Noah asked if him and Rachel could sit down and talk.
"Sure lets go into the dining room," Rachel said
As they sat down and began to talk, Noah started.
"Look, I really want to be friends, I think it's good for our daughter, knowing that. And knowing that we can be a family, Rachel I want to be a family together. I know we tried when Sophia was one and it didn't work out, but I'm mature now I think we can handle being together now, as a family."
Rachel instantly started to giggle, "You mature? Aren't you the same man standing outside my apartment screaming and cussing?"
"Well that's because for some reason you feel the need to keep my daughter away from me!"
"No, you do that all to yourself, we have shared custody NOAH you should be seeing her as much as I do, but do you? No. and most the times you do get to see her it's because someone else has to pick her up and make you see her."
"Are you talking about Finn? I ask him to pick her up, those times I was busy at the shop-"
"Oh okay, Noah stick to your story we all know what you are doing okay, and I'm not having that around me or my daughter, I can't trust you as far as I can throw you, that phase of our lives was over prom night."
"So you don't have feelings for me anymore? You don't love me?"
"I care for you as my daughter's father, as a dear friend of mine, yes."
Noah looked at Rachel, feeling hurt, and things got silent and awkward.
"It's Sophia's bedtime Noah, you want to tuck her in and read her a story with me?" Rachel said breaking the tensioned silence.
"Sure." Noah said nonchalantly
As the two tucked their daughter in and read her a princess fairy land novel they returned to the sofa for a friendly hang out.
"So, I was thinking this weekend, we can take Sophia to the zoo? If you have time off from work."
"I'm free Sunday if that works for you, we can go!"
"Yes I am."
"Oh sounds fun, Sophia will have a blast; she hasn't been there for the longest time, as she shared with you her new favorite animal?" Asked Rachel
"Yea, what's up with all the unicorns in her room?" Puck asked laughing
"Well, her Uncle Kurt and Blaine have been sending her them left and right from NYC, she loves them!"
"Oh gotcha" Puck replied
"When are you planning on going there your far too talented to be working as a vocal coach." Puck asked
"Soon, whenever I figure out how, I had to break into my savings a month ago for Sophia's doctor's bill. Which someone wasn't there to help pay for, or been sending child support."
"I told you then that I would help with that, and I have been paying child support thank you very much."
"I'd like to see where it's going to." Rachel said rolling her eyes knowing Noah's a liar.
"Here's some money, save it spend it, whatever you choose, I promise I'm back Rachel I'm here to help you take care of her." Puck said handing her 200 dollars.
"It's taking you four years to man up?"
"Well Finn and I had a heart to heart, bromance sort of talk, I know what I have to do and he has helped me realize it."
"I swear I don't know where you would be if Finn wasn't by your side all your life."
"Thanks Rach." Puck said sarcastically rolling his eyes.
"Well it's late and I have a four year old that will be waking me up at 7 am, so I think it's time for bed for me"
"Alright let's go!" Puck said jumping up off the couch, laughing.
"So funny puckerman, I'll see you tomorrow." Rachel said pushing on his chest to get him closer to the door.
"Alright alright, but you know you want me to stay and cuddle with you!"
"Oohhh, shut up!" Rachel said laughing.
"You know you do!" Puck said with a smirk on his face leaving her apartment door.
"BYE!" Rachel screamed to him as she smiled at him and shut the door.
Rachel shut and locked the door and headed to her daughters room, just staring at her precious face. Everything she was doing was for her daughter. She couldn't be happier that she had her to spend her life with. As she gave Sophia a kiss on the forehead she turned her night light on, and cracked her door opened.
While Rachel was in her queen size bed, she looked over to her left, wishing she had a man beside her, to tell her day to, to kiss good night. A tall awkward man specifically. As she lied down and covered up, she thought about asking Finn for coffee the next day. She didn't know how they spent four years not talking or sharing their day with eachother. They had barley said 30 words to one another for four years. 'How is that possible' Rachel began to think in her head. I guess they had hurt each other way passed the point of being able to work things out. But at least she could put in an effort after all this time.
SO? Weird right, Puckleberry child? She's destined for greatness and screwing up at the same time⦠haha jk I love Puck! Just not for Rachel but I think this concept is kinda cool the "what if Finchel never got back together" Well let me know if you liked it as well! REVIEWS ARE FINCHEL FEELINGS! :D
