Hey guys! This story has been floating around in my head and I started writing it last night and bam! It just happened! I'm super excited about this one! I won't be giving up my other and I hope to keep them updated in tandem!

Disclaimer: I don't own Glee. If you recognize it, it belongs to Ryan Murphy. If you don't, it's mine.

Enjoy!

"I can't believe we are stuck in this shit hole." Puck scowled as he leaned against his truck, staring at the brick building in front of him.

"It's not so bad, Noah." I told him, patting him on the chest as I passed, heading for the front doors. "We have to at least try and blend in." I called back over my shoulder and soon enough, the boy had jogged over to catch up with me.

"But why Ohio?" He whined like a petulant child and I sighed.

"Because it's Home." I said simply, walking casually to the offices and making my way inside. After clearing my throat and getting the attention of the woman behind the desk I spoke, putting on my best smile.

"Rachel and Noah Puckerman here for our schedules." I said sweetly and the older woman smiled kindly at me.

"Of course dear." She said as she rummaged through a pile of papers before pulling out two and handing them to me. "You'll find your locker assignments there as well." She said, pointing to the small numbers just above our schedule.

"Thank you, ma'am." I gave her one last smile before pulling Noah out into the hallway and handing him his schedule. "We have all the same classes. I made sure of it." He nodded, taking his schedule and looking it over.

"Glee club? Really?" He asked, a low chuckle escaping his throat.

"I like singing, Noah." I glowered at him. "And so do you. And you're trying out for the football team and I'm going for cheerleading." He rolled his eyes at this.

"Why don't you just give it up and join the football team with me? You know you're gonna be faster than all of those guys." He said, appealing his case to me once more like he had been doing all week.

"Noah, you know that a girl playing football would gather attention. Which is exactly what we are trying to avoid. And especially a girl who can run a mile in under a minute. I'm sure that wouldn't gather attention." I said sarcastically and he rolled his eyes again.

"So you tone it down and run at a normal speed. Come on! I don't want to be a part of that team without you! We would rule that field and it's been so long since I've ruled a football field!" He said, his eyes alight with excitement. I sighed, huffing out a breath of air.

"Fine. Fine. I'll try out for the stupid football team." I bit out reluctantly as Noah did a fist pump into the air.

"Yes! You won't regret it, sis!" He exclaimed, slinging an arm over my shoulder as we headed in the general direction of our lockers, in better spirits n he had been.

I wrinkled my nose as we passed a group of boys wearing letterman jackets.

"The boys here reek." I told Noah. "Way too much cologne. It's almost suffocating. ...and be girls aren't much better." I added on as we passed a group of girls talking excitedly about their summer. I frowned and tried not to focus on the many smells assaulting my nose. Noah was wearing a similar expression as he nodded his agreement.

We finally found our lockers and put in our combinations like was written on our schedules. We stashed our practice gear and our book bags, deciding to just keep a notebook and pen with us each for the first class. We didn't have books yet so we had one less thing to carry around.

"What the fuck?" I heard my brother snarl from beside me and turned to look where his eyes were trained and realized that we had company. All of a sudden, I felt something incredibly cold hit my face and chest and drip onto the floor. I opened my eyes and realized that our company was a group of jocks holding now empty slushie cups and wearing matching smirks. Rage coursed through my veins and I had to fight with myself not to react but upon the slight recoil of the guys closest to us, I knew my eyes had changed color. I pushed forward, putting my finger square into the apparent leader's chest.

"I don't know who the fuck you think you are. But if you ever pull something like that with me or my brother again, you'll wish you hadn't ever been born." I said with a deadly calm voice. The boy audibly gulped but straightened his shoulders, squaring off with me.

"I'd like to see you try, little girl. You'll soon learn who runs this school and who's at the bottom of the food chain." He said, arrogance filling his voice and I flattened my hand on his chest, pushing him back into the opposite wall and holding him there. I saw a flash of pain as I used my strength and pushed a little harder to emphasize my point.

"You'll do well to remember the fear you feel right now because I promise you I won't be so nice next time." I said, my voice still calm and low. And as fast as I could snap my fingers, I turned away and back to Noah, grabbing my gym bag and slamming my locker shut. I grabbed Noah's hand and pulled him through the hallways to the closest bathroom. After checking to make sure the coast was clear, I pulled him inside with me and locked the door. I looked up and noticed his eyes were a dangerous red and I knew mine had to be the same and sure enough, when I looked in the mirror, red eyes shone back at me. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and when I opened them again, they had returned to their warm chocolate brown. I turned to Noah and noticed that he had also returned his eyes to their proper color and I smiled a sad smile at him.

"If I wasn't sure about joining the football team, I am now." I told him. "Come on. Let's get cleaned up."
