Hey, so if you didn't know, I am finishing this story for JustAmazing…who is just that…amazing :D For reasons I am not going to tell, JustAmazing can not finish this story and for that I told her I would take over. So the first three chapters were written entirely by her and she gave me permission to copy it from her profile onto mine. Enjoy. I do not own Glee.

"We're going to suck without Quinn!" Brittney exclaimed plopping down in a chair next to Mike.

"Babe. Relax." He said to her.

"I'm really sorry, guys." Quinn said looking down at the floor.

"Come on, sweetie. It's not your fault." Finn said.

"Yeah. It's Finn's! You and your stupid sperm." Santana said then threw a crumpled up piece of paper at him.

"Ow!" He exclaimed rubbing the back of his head where the paper hit.

"Guys! Stop fighting. We have to think of a way to get through the rest of the season without Quinn." Brittney said rolling her eyes.

"Well, what are we going to do?" Santana asked looking to Brittney.

"Why do I have to think of every thing?" Brittney asked rolling her eyes. Just then Rachel bounced in with Kurt and Mercedes.

"Greetings fellow glee clubbers!" Rachel said waving to them energetically. Kurt looked to Mercedes.

"I just don't get it. She's like this all day, everyday. Do you give her espresso while I'm not looking?" He asked Mercedes, who shook her head.

"Boy. I'm not crazy." She said as they watched Rachel move chairs around.

"Maybe this will get a little bit of her energy out. Rach! Come on let's dance!" Kurt screamed to her.

Rachel turned around. "I don't really feel like right now. I have to finish with these chairs." She said then skipped back to the table. Kurt shook his head.

"Think she'll crash anytime soon?" Mercedes asked.

"Right after Glee." Kurt nodded.

"You wanna bet?" Mercedes asked. Kurt nodded.

"20 bucks?"

"You got it. Anybody else want in?" Kurt asked.

"No, that's okay." Finn said. Everyone else nodded. Quinn sighed then looked at her watch.

"Come on, Finn. We have an OBGYN appointment." Quinn said. Finn nodded and gathered up his and Quinn's stuff.

"See you guys later." He said then waved. "Bye!" Mike and Matt called. Santana watched as Quinn exited the room and got up and scuffled over to Brittney.

"I have an idea. Now just hear me out." Santana said.

"Okay?" Brittney said a little unsure.

"Look, I know that glee freak is a little bit out there but look at her. She has so much energy. She's our only chance." Santana said. Brittney looked from Santana to Rachel and back.

"Your right." She said nodding. Santana looked at her. "Okay. We'll talk to Sue about it right after Glee." She said then went back to her seat.

Puck walked in and looked around. 'Brainless jock, brainless jock, brainless cheerleader, ugh Santana, Beyonce, Aretha and zippy. Which one should I talk to?' He thought to himself as he watched Rachel zip around. He set his stuff down and went over to Rachel.

"Hey Berry." He said making her stop for a second.

"Noah." She said. Since they broke up they hadn't been on the best of terms.

"How are you?" He asked trying to be polite.

"Fine. And yourself?" She asked. Puck nodded.

"I'm good."

"How's your mother?" She asked. Puck and Rachel had known each other since pre-school, and Puck's mother used to work for one of Rachel's fathers.

"She's good. I'll tell her you said hi." Puck said.

"Thank you." She said then started to zip around. Artie and Tina came in and stopped when they saw Rachel zipping around.

"Alright. Who gave her coffee?" Artie asked.

"S-s-eriously. She's z-z-ipping around." Tina said watching her.

"No one! That's what's so weird!" Kurt said sitting in a chair. Brittney smiled to Santana. "Your right. She's perfect." Brittney said.

"Who?" Mike asked.

"For what?" Matt asked.

Santana rolled her eyes. "Okay. We have an idea. You can not tell anyone." Santana said then told them her plan. Matt and Mike exchanged looks. "Uhmm…are you guys sure that's a good idea?" Matt asked. "It's the best shot we've got." Brittney shrugged.

"Alright guys! Let's start work…Where's Quinn and Finn?" Mr. Schuester asked coming into the auditorium.

"Quinn had a doctor's appointment." Santana said.

"Okay, so…Puck you lead with Rachel for today." He said as the two got up in front of the room. Glee club came and passed. As Mr. Schuester was leaving, everyone else was packing up.

"I am so tired." Rachel moaned sitting in a chair. "Yes! You owe me!" Kurt exclaimed to Mercedes.

"Don't make me take you to the carpet!" Mercedes said, making Puck chuckle.

"Come on. Let's go." Kurt said.

"I don't wanna get up." Rachel whined.

"If you don't get up, we're going to Starbucks without you." Kurt threatened.

"Okay. I'm up. I'm up." She said standing up. Puck smiled as the 4 walked out of the room, with Artie rolling behind them. He laughed to himself and walked out with his backpack slung over his shoulder. Brittney looked to Santana who nodded. "Ready?" Santana asked. Brittney nodded. "Yep. Let's do it." Brittney said then grabbed her bag and walked with Santana to Sue's office.

"Ms. Sylvester?" Santana said knocking on her office door lightly.

"Come in girls." She said then they sat down.

"We have a way that we could save cheerio's for the rest of the season." Santana said. Sue looked up.

"And what is that?" She asked.

"Rachel Berry." Brittney said.

"What about her?"

"Well, she's energetic, and we all know she can dance. She's our only chance, Ms. Sylvester." Santana said.

"Did you talk to Berry about this?" Sue asked.

"Well no. But, don't worry. She'll be fine with it." Santana smiled. The next morning Finn was at Mike's locker with Matt. "So, apparently the cheerio's are going to have a new member." Matt smiled as Mike closed his locker and they all started to walk.

"Oh yeah? Who?" Finn asked.

"Rachel Berry." Mike said. Finn started at the two wide eyed.

"Rachel? Funny guys." He said then laughed. The two looked at him. "Wait. You're not kidding are you?" He asked. Mike and Matt shook they're heads. "Oh my god. You can not tell Quinn!" He exclaimed.

"Tell me what?" Quinn asked from behind them. "That…Finn wants to name the baby Drizzle." Mike said covering. "I knew that!" Quinn said rolling her eyes and laughing slightly.

"Come on Finn. We gotta get to class." She said. Finn nodded then walked away with Quinn. "Hey Berry!" Santana called to her, Brittney following close behind. Rachel spun around.

"Hello ladies, lovely morning isn't it?" She asked smiling.

"Rachel, we need a favor." Brittney said.

"If I can help. Of course." Rachel said to the two of them. "We need you to join cheerios." Santana said.

"Well, uhmm..I don't know about that." Rachel said closing her locker slowly. "Please Rachel. We need you. And it's only for a couple of more games." Brittney said. "With Quinn gone we need someone as good, and as much as I hate to admit it, that's you." Santana said.

Rachel looked between the two and saw that they were desperate. "Okay." Rachel sighed.

"Thank you! Meet us in the gym after school, we'll fill you in." Brittney smiled then the two walked away. Rachel drew in a deep breath and walked right into a strong chest. She looked up to see Puck. "Oh, hello Noah." She said.

"Hey Rachel." Puck smiled. "What were you, Santana, and Brittney talking about?" He asked.

"Oh…uhmm…Glee." She said then looked around. "I've gotta go. See you later, Noah." She said then walked away quickly. She let out a breath of relief as she sat in her seat in class. After school she went to meet Santana and Brittney in the gym. She looked around and didn't see them. "Santana? Brittney?" She asked as the two came out with sneakers and a cheerleading uniform in they're hands. Sue was behind them.

"Well, superstar don't just stand there, go change." Sue said. Rachel nodded then grabbed the clothes and ran to the locker room.

She came back out and looked at the three women in front of her. "I don't know about this." She said.

"To late now, kid. Your one of mine now." Sue said putting an arm around her shoulder. "Okay. Let's see what you can do." Sue said. They did splits and toe touches and went over cheers. "Your good, Berry. To good for Schuester. You should consider doing this full time." She said. Rachel looked at her.

"I'm sorry Ms. Sylvester but I don't think so."

Sue shrugged. "Well that's just how Sue C's it." She said making the figure C with her hand then looked down at her watch. "Sorry girls. Gotta go. Make sure to watch Sue's Corner tonight." Sue said then walked out. Rachel smiled then looked back at Santana and Brittney.

"So when's the next game?" She asked. Brittney and Santana looked at each other. "Don't freak." Santana said. "But tomorrow." Brittney finished. "What!" Rachel screeched. "You'll be okay." Santana said then patted her on the back. Rachel nodded then left.

The next night at the big game, Rachel was nervous. "I'm too nervous. I can't do it." She said to Santana and Britney.

[justamazing]

"Oh come on…be positive Rachel. You learned faster than any of us every could. You have the routine down. And you look completely hot in the outfit." Britney reassured.

Rachel self consciously smoothed out the material that was clinging to her body. She felt…exposed. Not herself. Why was she doing this again? She had no idea. "I feel sick to my stomach" Rachel explained, shaking with fear.

"It's the butterflies Rach. We all get them" Britney jumped in, setting a hand on her new friend's shoulder.

Santana smirked, looking her over "Puck is going to enjoy this so much." She was proud of her and Britney's work. They made gleek Rachel Berry actually look sexy. Her normal straight hair was curled at the ends, and her makeup made her even more beautiful then she was before. Santana nodded "Trust me."

"Why do you say that? Noah and I have nothing going on with one another. We just deal with one another for the sake of Glee" Rachel crossed her arms tightly over her chest. Partly to prove her point, partly to cover herself up. It was a failed effort though. The cheerleading outfit was showing every curve she had. It showed off her long, tan legs but all of her skirts usually did that.

"Ok, now just take a deep breath and watch us if you get lost. Ok Berry" Santana ordered, looking out at the bleachers. It was packed as it usually was. She watched as the guys entered onto the field. All the cheerleaders waved their pom poms and cheered as the guys got called off one by one. The football players all looked over to the cheerleaders and slowly almost all of them were shocked speechless.

"Is that-" One of them started.

"That's-" Another began after him.

"Rachel" Finn, Matt, Mike, and Puck all said in unison. Puck was shocked, while the rest of them all knew it was going to happen. "Well what the hell is she doing cheering" He asked, looking over to her every five seconds. She looked hot. Not that she didn't always look attractive to him. Ever since they'd been together, and then broken up he had these thoughts about her. Not always clean thoughts.

"She's taking Quinn's place" Mike said, nodding. "And damn, that girl knows how to work it." Puck scowled. He wondered if Tanaka would be pissed if he tackled one of his own team members to the ground.

Finn chuckled "I wonder what Britney would think about that."

"I think she'd be proud she made someone look hotter than herself" Mike argued.

Puck was ignoring them. His eyes were glued to Rachel. The image of her like she was would have him in the shower for an hour longer than he should be.

Rachel could feel his eyes on her, but she kept them strictly at the crowd. She waved her pom poms around, cheering for McKinley.

"Look at the look Puck is giving her" Britney yelled to Santana, over the cheering. Santana looked over to the guys and smirked .

"Yeah…this could totally work out" She said, more to herself then Britney.

Rachel jumped around, yelling your typical "Go McKinley" or "Yeah!" It all seemed very far fetched to her. She never thought she would ever be standing here as a cheerio, loving the thrill of it all. Loving the attention she was getting.

The cheerleaders all raved on about the guys as the game began. "G-O! Go! McKinley!" As the teams both fought for victory, the cheerios all yelled out their boyfriends names along with "Go!" or "You can do it" or some phrases with vulgar language. The crowd grew louder as Finn threw the ball to Puck. Puck caught it with such ease, he made it look easy. He ran 50 yards and scored the first touchdown.

Rachel jumped up and down happily with the rest of the girls, doing splits or cartwheels. It was crazy, and fun, and she vaguely wondered why she'd never done it before. "Go Puck" She heard herself scream. If only he was hers to claim.

Puck looked over to the cheerleaders and pointed to her. As if he'd done it for her. But this made no sense. They weren't together. Much to her dismay, they had decided not to even be friends after the break up. As he ran back to the group, Finn patted him on the back. Rachel smiled, and tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear.

By half time, McKinley was winning, 10-5. The cheerleaders were jumping around with each other, giggling and chattering it up. They did their next cheer, making the crowd go wild, and afterwards Rachel was high off of all of it.

Santana cleared her throat and casually pointed behind Rachel. Rachel scrunched her eyebrows in confusion, until she felt big hands on her hips. She knew those hands.

"I, uh, like the outfit" Puck said huskily into her ear. It sent shivers up her spine. Not only was his breath hot on the side of her face, he was sweaty and the heat that was radiating off of him could be felt.

Rachel looked over her shoulder at him. "T-Thanks Noah. Nice Game" She said quickly. Puck smirked and nodded.

"Thanks. The whole you screaming my name thing fits you- stick with it" He suggested. "Puckerman would you hurry the hell up" Tanaka yelled. Puck smirked, and ran his hand up Rachel's side before pulling away, and jogging off. Rachel let out a breath she didn't know she was holding.

"I am jealous, whore" Santana joked. Santana was joking with her? Laughing, and acting like a true friend would? Rachel smiled slightly.

She looked after where Puck had jogged "I have no idea what that was all about."

"That was about Puck wanting you so bad" Britney interjected, smiling widely.

Rachel rolled her eyes, and waved the pom poms some more. She could totally get used to this.

By the end of the night, McKinley won. 20-17. Santana, Britney, and Rachel were standing off to the side laughing and gushing.

"Mike was so cute, you guys" Britney squealed.

Santana laughed "Nah, my Matt!"

Rachel watched, amused. She smiled happily. She loved music. It was her dream. But with cheerleading she'd enjoyed it. She felt like she belonged.

"Ladies" She heard Puck's voice behind them. They were waiting for the guys to finish changing, and they finally did.

"Mmm, I will pay you a hell of a lot of money never to change out of that outfit ever again" Puck said happily, wrapping an arm around Rachel's shoulders. She giggled, looking past him to Finn. Her eyes met two jealous ones staring right at her and Puck. She crossed her arms, and looked back at Puck.

"What do you say Rach" Santana asked. Santana just called her Rach, she thought happily.

Rachel looked at her new friend, confused. "About what?"

"Becoming a official cheerio" Britney said, practically begging.

"I-uh-yeah! I'll do it" Rachel caved. "Yes!" Puck said under his breath. "You need a ride Rachel" He asked, looking at her carefully.

"Yeah. Why? Are you offering" She asked.

"I sure am" Puck said, leading her towards his car. Before they could get far, Quinn stepped out with her hands on her hips.

"What. The. Hell" She growled.

Rachel backed up into Puck, and he tightened his grip on her shoulders.

"Quinn, you came" Finn said happily, headed towards his girlfriend.

Quinn scowled. "Yeah and I wish I hadn't. This freak thinks she can take my spot in cheerios. It's not fair and she's not even good. San, Brit why would you let her do this?"

"It was our idea Quinn. Listen, your our friend, but we have to think about cheerleading now. You're pregnant and Rachel was our best bet" Santana snapped.

Quinn scowled, and moved her gaze to Rachel. "Oh, what, now you're a cheerleader who's dating a football player?"

"Yep. But don't be mad because you didn't score me. I just prefer brunettes" Puck said, smirking, leading Rachel past Quinn. Rachel sighed "Maybe I shouldn't-"

"Maybe you should! Don't listen to Quinn, she's a bitch. I saw you out there. You loved it. Maybe you can actually do something just because it's fun. Not because it'll help with your career" Puck said, helping her into his truck. As he walked around to his side and climbed in Rachel fidgeted with her hands.

"You know- When I was out there all I could hear was Brit calling Mike's name and San calling Matt's. And-I just wished I could have called yours. I mean, were you telling the truth when you told Quinn I was dating a football player or am I just highly confused" Puck rolled his eyes and kissed Rachel to make her shut up.

Rachel was caught off guard, but leaned into the kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck. Puck pulled away smirking "I think you have your answer Rach. Now buckle up cheerio." Rachel smiled and buckled her seat belt. She felt great, and hoped it would stay that way.

As I said before, this is JustAmazing's work. But please feel free to REVIEW and I will pass them on to her :D
