Ok so this takes off from where Rachel breaks up with Noah in 1:08 but it's just a little different from the show. Instead in the fanfic Rachel and the Glee club (but especially Rachel) are kind of mad that Finn chooses football over them. I really suck at summaries as it is and considering I wrote this on a whim and have absolutely NO idea where I'm going with this from here I can't really say much but that it mostly centers around Rachel. Finn, Puck, and some Quinn. Other Glee club members will be in the story but not as much as those four. I really don't know which couple this story is even about at the moment (Rachel/Finn? Puck/Rachel? Finn/Quinn? Quinn/Puck?) I DON'T KNOW!!! I kind of am liking all of them at the moment! What can I say? This show is just that amazing =)

P.S. READ AND REVIEW!!! REALLY TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!!! THIS IS MY FIRST FANFIC EVER SO I WANT TO KNOW!!!

Chapter 1

All Because Of You

Rachel Berry felt a chill as cold as the slushies the football team threw in her face on a weekly basis run through her spine as she watched Noah Puckerman stomp off, leaving her by herself on the bleachers. Slowly she closed her eyes and let out a shaky breath. That had been a lot harder then she'd ever expected it to be. It shouldn't have been hard at all. He was Noah freaking Puckerman. The jackass who had made it his goal for years to make her life a living hell. But as she watched his tall figure disappear behind the corner of the school building she felt a feeling of sadness wash over her.

"Ok team, bring it in." Coach Tanaka shouted after his whistle let out a deafening chirp. The red uniform wearing high schoolers all slowly padded across the lush green grass to their coach where he told them all to 'take a knee'. As all the players got down on one knee Coach Tanaka started talking.

Rachel was too far away to hear anything he was saying but even if she had been close enough she would've completely blocked it all out, too busy staring at the tall, brunette boy who had stolen and crushed her heart twice in less than one semester. Another chill ran through her as everything else seemed to slow down as she watched Finn Hudson from the stands.

Rachel felt her heart sped up as memories of his lips pressing to hers filled her mind. His taste, his smell. It was all intoxicating to her. She shook off these thoughts quickly pushing them back in to the far corners of her mind. He had a girlfriend. A pregnant girlfriend. There wasn't a chance for them. She had to forget about him. Just like he had about her and the rest of glee club.

"Finn!" Coach said calling the quarterback over. He stood up along with the rest of the team as they formed a circle. "McKinley on three!" he shouted. "One, two, three. McKinley!" they shouted before the circle broke apart. Rachel watched as the sweaty boys got their stuff together before they all headed, their duffels draped over their shoulders and water bottles in hands.

"Finn, you coming?" Tommy Young shouted over his shoulder noting that the captain was taking his time getting his things together. "Yeah, I'll be right there." he replied. Tommy nodded and ran to catch up with some of the other players leaving Finn behind.

Finn looked off towards his teammates making sure all of them entered the locker room before he let out a breath and closed his eyes before falling back on to the metal bench wondering how life had gotten so screwed up. Football was supposed to be his top priority. But sitting there on the bench now he couldn't help but feel bad for leaving Glee.

Not only did he desert the club only weeks before sectionals but he deserted his friends. Artie, Kurt, Tina, Mercedes, and...Rachel?

Looking up from the grass he had been staring blankly into moments ago he noticed the petite brunette from across the field. Her hair was blowing slightly in the wind and her eyes were closed, seeming to enjoy the crisp fall Ohio breeze. Suddenly as if feeling his eyes on her, her eyes snapped open and they are looking up in to Finn's.

Her breath caught in her throat for only a moment but she quickly turned away, hoping he hadn't seen her staring. Rachel quickly stood from the bleachers when she noticed Noah's red letterman's jacket lying on the floor.

She sucks in a breath and exhales realizing that she would have to return it to him which meant one of those awkward moments you have with your exes. Rachel shivered slightly and wrinkled her nose at the thought of Noah Puckerman being her ex-boyfriend. Even if it hadn't lasted that long, it was still weird.

She slowly bent over and scooped up the jacket from the floor, glancing quickly over her shoulder at Finn who was still intently staring at her from across the field with a determined look in his eyes.

Rachel clutched on to Puke's jacket as she darted down the metal stairs and headed towards the parking lot. Out of the corner of her eye, however, she can see the quarterback standing from the bench and walking her way. She sped up her steps now, making sure her brown eyes were kept locked on the black ground of the track encircling the football field.

"Rachel!" Finn called out to her starting to jog towards her. "Rachel!" he yelled again beginning to run now. She pretended not to notice him calling her name but it didn't matter anymore because he caught up to her. Damn high heels.

"Rachel." he said again grabbing her by the shoulder and turning her around.

"What, Finn?" she spat. "What do you want?"

"I wanted to explain." he said in a soft voice, taken aback slightly by her tone.

"Explain what? The fact that you deserted the only true friends you have right now?" she glared. "Don't worry about it, Finn. No explanation needed." she said glancing down at his hand that still lingered on her shoulder then back up at him telling him with her eyes to remove his hand.

He noticed the look she was giving him and looked at his hand but didn't move it, knowing that she would leave as soon as he did. "I didn't mean to hurt you, Rachel."

"Well that's too bad," Rachel said in a level tone. "because you did."

And with that Rachel spun around on the soles of her shoes, shrugging off Finn's hand and walking with her head held high and a tear rolling down her cheek as she approached the parking lot.

Ok so that was actually really fun to write! I totally get why all you guys like writing fan fiction so much =)

I think I'm gonna continue this now that I've written it and have a few ideas for where this story could go. Still not entirely sure about the couples though. I really like Noah and Rachel but Finn is really sweet too! Ugh! I can't decide! I guess you'll just have to bear with me until I finally make a decision about who I want who to end up with.

So again reviews are appreciated!!!
