I doubt that this would happen in Glee, so I'm writing this short mini story because...well... I've just always imagined a Jake and Beth type story and since nobody has written one yet; I'll do it.
So doing the math, Beth is about 3 or 3 and a half years old, around that.
Jake Puckerman was sitting at home playing his guitar, working on a few songs for Glee practice on Monday, when a knock at the door stopped him. "Who is it?" He called.
"Puck! Open up!" Puck yelled.
"Door's open!" Jake yelled, then presumed to play the song. He figured that Puck wanted to hang out and either pick up on girls, watch a movie or play Call of Duty. The latter only happening if Finn and Ryder were going to play. It was like brother vs brother for the four of them.
Instead Puck walked in carrying a blonde hair little girl, about three years old, and some sort of carrying bag. The blonde girl had curly hair and looked like a mix of both Puck and Quinn Fabray. Puck dropped the bag and walked over to Jake
"Who's the kid?" Jake asked.
"Remember when I said I knocked up a girl about three years ago?"
"Yes, Quinn."
"Jake, meet Beth." He said holding the little girl up more. "Beth this is Jake, your half uncle...or full...we're pretty close now like full brothers."
Beth looked over at Jake, with curiosity, and waved.
"Hi.. Beth." Jake said. Puck had told him about he and Quinn having a baby named Beth and that while Puck wanted to keep her, they eventually gave her up for adoption. Though the woman who adopted Beth was not only Rachel's birth mother, but also a very kind and caring woman who wanted the adoption to become open after a few years. But that was it really. "She looks like a mix of you both."
"Funny. I say more Quinn, Shelby says me." Puck said. "Do me a favor, a big one please?"
"Noah Puckerman asking with please? What is it?" Jake questioned.
"Watch her for me. Beth."
"WHAT?" Jake yelled. "Are you insane? Puck I have never watched a kid before in my life!"
"Oh its easy. Shelby says she's easy to care for, nothing too bad." Puck said. "Look her toys are in this bag here, she can use the toilet—just go in and flush and hold her while she washes her hands and she's not too picky with food." Puck explained settling Beth down. "And you've got some old kid movies, right? She likes movie. She kind of talks, mainly babbles, but some simple words."
"Puck, again, I haven't watched a child in my life. Ever. Does this Shelby lady even know I'm going to watch her?"
"Yes, I told her. I said I'd do it, then something came up and I needed someone. Quinn's out of town, God forbid Rachel takes care of her adoptive sister and turning her into a Mini Rachel, my Mom is working and my sister is too busy hanging out with her Christian friends. And if your mom is coming home soon—"
"Yeah she's not going to be back until one in the morning, working a triple shift." Jake interrupted. "Dude, I can't do it."
"Its easy! And besides you can totally call the hotties over and tell them your babysitting your niece and soon enough those babes will come over wanting to see this cute little monkey face."
"Dude—"
"Oh relax it's not even the whole day. I'll pick her up around nine or ten, she usually falls asleep around seven."
"Dude it's nine right now, that's almost the entire day!" Jake exclaimed. "Can't you get another sitter? Marley is a good sitter, she's watched kids before!"
"Dude do it for me!" Puck yelled. "We're brothers, we do this for each other. I'd totally watch your kids at the last minute if you asked."
"Puck if and when I do have kids, I'm telling you a head of time. I'm not having you go to a bar or stripper club and exposing my kids to that stuff. Even if its my son." Jake told him. He sighed a minute later. "Fine, I'll watch her. But you own me BIG time."
"Thanks bro!" Puck said picking Beth. "Bye Beth, Daddy's going out for a while. Uncle Jake is gonna watch you now. Love you." He kissed Beth's cheek. He then handed the little girl over to Jake, who took her gently. "Have fun!"
"You owe me BIG time!" Jake yelled back.
"Yeah whatever!" Puck yelled leaving the room.
"I mean it!" Jake yelled. "Big time!"
"Whatever!"
Jake followed Puck to the door and saw that outside was a car filled with three girls in bikinis. His emergency is dating a girl in a bikini? That's important? Jake thought.
After Puck drove off Jake shut the door and walked back into the living room. He settled Beth down on the couch, then pulled a chair over and sat in front of her, trying to think of what to do.
"So Beth, what do you want to do?"
Beth began crying after that.
Oh god, this is going to be a long day!
Eh so what do you think so far? I've had this idea in my mind for a while, but wasn't sure if I should write it or not.
Hopefully people like this :)
