A/N: I'm back! Now, this time, I've decided to portray Rachel differently. She will still be an attention-seeker and everything like that, but she won't be a prude. That's pretty much all you need to know. Enjoy and REVIEW!

Rachel Berry sat in Glee, eyes trained on Mr. Schue as she eagerly drank in what he had to say. Santana and Brittany sat in the back gossiping about the school- mostly Rachel, though. Kurt was commenting on Mercedes' outfit, and Mercedes was doing the same to Kurt; it was their ritual. Quinn sat looking wistfully at Santana and Brittany, wishing she could join them. Matt, Mike, Finn, and Puck sat in the back, looking bored and rolling their eyes when they thought Mr. Schue had said something typical. Tina and Artie sat next to each other and listened to Mr. Schue, though they also slipped in and out while making goo-goo eyes at each other.

Then, the bell rang. Everybody broke out of their Glee-time trances and went about their day. See, during the day, the Glee kids barely acknowledged the ones that were not in their social circles. Not even the geeks, Kurt, Mercedes, Tina, and Artie, acknowledged her. The only two people that seemed to take interest in her was a) Finn. But she had gotten over Finn a long time ago. As it turned out, Finn was just playing her to keep her on Glee, and the only reason she really liked him was because he gave her the attention she had always wanted but never got. Well some of it. Now it seemed he had taken an interest in her, but she would still be nothing compared to Quinn Fabray. B) Jacob Ben-Israel. And speaking of Jacob…

"Rachel Berry, you are my goddess. I want to make you a woman tonight." He whispered in her ear, trying to be seductive, but failing because she was too busy coughing after the big dose of Jew-Fro she got stuck in her face.

"Go away. I will now nor ever be your anything. So you can go trim your jungle now." she told him cattily. It's not that she was a mean person, but she definitely had attitude and also had enough of the pathetic little boy standing in front of her.

"Oh, feisty. I like them feisty." He said, leering at her as if he could see through her skirt. Then, he grabbed her wrist when she tried to walk away.
"Stay with me Rachel! We can do things together, baby!" he called after her.

See, at this point, although Rachel was pretty much invisible, they had called the attention of many people in the hall, who stopped to giggle and snicker at the scene in front of them.

"Let… me…. go…." she said, struggling with his grip.

"She said let her go." said a deep male voice.

Oh gosh, this is just like a movie cliché. She thought while she rolled her eyes. And my knight in shining armor is…

Out of the crowd stepped Noah Puckerman. Jacob, out of pure fear, let go of Rachel and started to cower against the lockers.

"Now, let me see you do that again, and I will put my foot up your ass so hard that you'll have to surgically remove my shoe out of your stupid fro. Clear?" he asked menacingly.

"C-c-cryst-tal." Jacob stuttered.

"Good. Now get out of my sight." Puck said. Jacob ran through the crowd.

"You okay Berry?" he asked Rachel.

"I'm fine. Thanks, I guess." she told him.

"No prob. God, he disgusts me so much. Honestly. He has no looks, style, charm, wit, muscles, taste, muscles…" Puck spat.

"Um… excuse me? What do you mean he doesn't have taste?" Rachel asked angrily.

"Well that's obvious. I mean if you're going to stalk a girl, why not make it a pretty one?" Puck asked, completely oblivious to the anger of the girl right in front of him. That is, until she slapped him across the face, and walked away.

"Jeez. You'd think that she would at least be thankful." He mumbled, rubbing his cheek and glaring at Rachel's retreating figure before walking away.

"Hey, are you okay?" asked Mercedes worriedly.

"What, you're worried about me now?" asked Rachel snippily.

"Um woah back up. I was just asking you if you were okay, and now you wanna go get sassy with me?" Mercedes asked affronted.

"Sorry." she said, not sounding sorry at all. "You've just ignored me before, so I'm not really sure what to think."

"Well, you're my girl now. We've got to stick together. Now, let's walk to math together." Mercedes said with a smile. Rachel gave her an unsure smile back.

"I don't want to sound rude and deny, but we aren't in the same math class." Rachel put in quietly.

"Oh. Well then I'll catch you later?" Mercedes asked to make sure she was clear about her feelings.

"Yeah. See you later." Rachel replied.

"Umm excuse me, Mercedes, but what was that? Have you seen what she's wearing?" he asked angrily, waving his hands at the polyester nightmare traveling away from them.

"Kurt, you need to back up out of my face." she told him sassily. "Rachel needs a friend. I don't care how she dresses. We can work on that later. It could be fun."

"Whatever, but I don't like it." said Kurt decidedly.

"And I don't care. I'm going to be her friend. So deal with it." Mercedes said one last time before walking off to her math class.

And that was the first chapter. Also, to my HARRY POTTER fans out there, make sure you read my story, Lily and James: A History. .net/s/5992986/1/Lily_and_James_A_History Lily and James madness, fluffiness, etc.!
