"Kids down stairs now you have to eat before you go to school" My mom Shelby shouted up the stairs to my brother, sister and I. It was my first day of high school today I am due to attend William McKinley High School in Lima, Ohio, the same school where my older brother Noah is a senior and Older sister Santana who is a junior, well we are all half siblings all the same mom but different dads. Noah's dad, James was mom's high school boyfriend he stuck around till Noah was 3 months old and now Noah only see him if he need money but mom still gave Noah his dads surname. Santana's dad is some South American guy mom hooked up with at a bar soon after she broke up with James , he has met Santana once when she was 4 but at least he sends mom child support checks every month unlike James, Santana got her dads surname too. And then there is me, is mom still with my dad? … nope my dad Hiram, who was one of moms musical theatre friends was another drunk hook up of moms and dad was checking to see if he was 100% gay or not, he is and he has a lovey partner Leroy and they live in New York and I get to visit them every year for the summer and they usually come to Lima for Christmas to see me. So I guess I won the dad lottery and like my siblings I got my dad's surname too so most people don't know Noah Puckerman, Santana Lopez and Rachel Berry are related, well some people know about Noah and Santana because they were both popular with Noah one of the star football players and Santana on the Cheerios so they don't mind so much.
" Now you three ,I'll be home a bit late today because vocal adrenaline try-outs are today after school so I will pick up food on my way home, Ok?" Mum said looking at all of us. Mom was a music teacher at Carmel High another high school and she was the coach of their show choir team Vocal Adrenaline.
"Mom why can't I go to Carmel and join vocal adrenaline" I asked " McKinley hasn't had a glee club in like 7 years"
"Yeah mom why can't Hobbit go to Carmel and save us all from Selfish-Self-centered-Lame-ass Wannabe Diva From Hell embarrassing us" Santana asked as Noah nodded
"Santana Maribel Lopez, watch what you say about your sister" Mom said
"Mom Tana only speaks the truth Rachie will embarrass me and I have worked so hard to get to the top of McKinley's social ladder , just let her go to Carmel and she can sing and dance in your little glee club to her hearts content" Noah added
"Yeah, Mom I can be your new star and Dad wants me to go to a school which will aid me and my road to the Tony's" I said with a determined smile
"No , Rachel you are going to McKinley just like your brother and sister and as for you two" Mom said looking at Tana and Noah " you will be nice to your sister, I am fully aware of what the jocks and cheerleaders do to the musical theatre students at McKinley , so if one little hair of your sisters head gets slushy on it , I will make sure everyone knows you are all related , now I'm not saying you have to stop your little we are not related games but just make sure your sister is not bullied and Rachie in return try not to embarrass your siblings"
"Ok mom" we all said in unison
Noah was giving us all a ride to school much to his displeasure " Ok so you heard what mom said we have to play nice but Rachel I'm not joking round when I say no one is to know we are related it's bad enough hearing what the boys say about Garbage Face here and her friendly ways , I do not want to hear anything about you good or bad got it" Noah said and I nodded " and if you have to say my name lets pray you don't but if you do I am Puck , not Noah or Noie or whatever nicknames you have for me" I nodded again " good now out of the car both of you and make your own way home I have a football meeting and then pool cleaning after school"
"Bye Puck" I said as I got out of the car and made my way to school not even looking back to see if Santana was following
Once I got to school I saw my best friend Kurt Hummel, we had been best friends since our first day of kindergarten and he was the only one of my friends who know Noah and Tana or as they were known at McKinley Puck and Santana Lopez. The reason Noah and Tana's friends wouldn't remember me from when we were younger was Dad and Leroy still live in Lima so I spent lots of time with them , I don't really remember any of Noah's friends and Brittany is the only friend of Tana's I know.
"OMG Rachel, you will never guess what happened this summer" Kurt whispered
"What? What happened Kurt" I whispered back
"Dad got married" he replied
"To who? I didn't even know he was dating any one" I said back
"Carole Hudson, you know Finn Hudson's mom "he said
"OMG "I said
"I know him and his mom moved in with us like 3 weeks ago" Kurt said
"Wow Kurt are you ok with that" I asked knowing that Kurt and Burt had a pretty tight bond since his mom died
"Yeah she makes dad happy so I am happy for that" Kurt replied "so am I pretending I don't know Noah and Tana? " I nodded " good I will add them to the list because Finn said to pretend not to know him to because and I quote 'I have worked so hard to get to the top of McKinley's social ladder and I am the quarterback so they don't need my gay stepbrother embarrassing me'"
"Wow Kurt I'm sorry but Noah not sorry Puck said that too well except without the quarterback and gay stepbrother bit" I responded
"Rach did you hear?" Kurt asked
"Hear what" I asked
"Your mom has some competition coming McKinley is getting a glee club" Kurt said
"OMG really wow we are going to dominate this Kurt , this is our future we are talking about Kurt to help train us on our road to Broadway" I replied "where do we sign up
"This way Elphaba" Kurt said
"Lead the way Gaylinda" I said as we made our way to the sign up board Kurt signed up first and I followed of course adding my signature gold star at the end of my name.
"Freaks" we heard as we turned around and slushy was thrown into our faces. as I was wiped the cherry slushy from my eye I looked up to see the slushy tosser, it was one of Noah and Finns football team mates and Noah, Finn, Finns girlfriend/ Tana's best friend Quinn ,Tana and Brittany and some other cheerios and football players looked on.
"Come with us "two girls said leading us towards the unisex toilets "welcome to McKinley and its evil leader, am Mercedes and this is Tina"
"Thank you for helping us" I asked as they helped clean us up from the slushy attack "is it always like this"
"Yeah slushies' come with the being a nerd here at McKinley. Do you guys really want to join glee club" Tina asked
"Yes we both do, we love musical theatre" I replied
"Well we can't wait to see you at auditions tomorrow" Mercedes said "let's hope glee club actually happens this year"
"What do you mean actually happens" Kurt asked
"well last year we had a glee club but there was only like 6 member so we couldn't compete with that number and now two of those people have graduated so we really need some new blood so to speak" Tina said and then they both waved bye at us and left.
"I can't believe we got slushed on our first day" Kurt said as we left the toilets and all I could do was nodded along with him. My first day of high school passed without any other major events and after school I walked home with Kurt who lived just around the corner to my house. Once I got home I had a shower to wash off the last of the slushy and then started my homework and played on my laptop till mom got home with dinner
"Kids food" I heard mom shout so I went downstairs and got a plate and sat down to eat , Tana and Noah join me moments later and see ate in silence until mom stormed out of the laundry. "I asked one thing from you, don't let one little hair of your sisters head gets slushy on it and I trusted you"
"How did you know did the little bitch tell you?" Noah said
"No Noah the stain on Rachel brand new top and the cherry smell of said strain gave it away a little" Mom replied "Rachel who slushed you"
"I don't know who it was" I said partly because I didn't know and I didn't want to drop Noah and Tana in
"Well Tana , Noah do you know who slushed your sister or do I have to rang Kurt and ask him if he knows" Mom asked
"I don't know who did it mom" Santana said
"No idea sorry mom" Noah added
"Ok ill rang Kurt then after dinner, any way other than getting slushed was your day good baby girl" mom asked
"yep it was fine but guess what mom McKinley does have a glee club and I am auditioning tomorrow, Mercedes and Tina said that there was a glee club last year but they didn't have enough people to actually compete so they hope that there are enough people to compete" I replied to mom. I could see something ticking away in moms mind as we ate and after dinner she rang Kurt and he said he didn't know who any of them were and after mom talked to Burt and I saw her mind tick over more, she was up to something.
Hope you enjoyed let me know and of course any mistakes are my own. And what is Shelby thinking about as a punishment for Santana and Puck
