A new story. Hope you guys like it.
"What do you mean you joined the army?" Quinn said, getting into Finn's face as he walked into their house.
"Not the reaction I expected." Finn said in his head.
"Do you not realize that you can be killed? Are you going to take that chance?" Quinn said as she continued to bitch him out.
"No I did-" Finn tried to say but was interrupted by Quinn again.
"If you go overseas, what will I do?" Quinn asked.
"Quinn, relax! I'm not going to get killed and I'll write to you every day and try to get on the computer." Finn said, reassuring her.
"I don't believe it. What possessed you to do this? We were going to start a family." Quinn said, starting to cry.
"Oh geeze." Finn said in his head.
"I'm not going to die! We can start a family." Finn said as he continued to reassure his wife.
Finn and Quinn got married after they spent five years dating in college. They've been married for five months and live in a small apartment complex outside of Lima.
"Do you not love me?" Quinn asked, thinking of anything to make Finn feel guilty.
"Yes, I love you. Why can't you just trust me for a change?" Finn said as he went into their bedroom.
"Because joining the military is dangerous and I'm not ready to lose you." Quinn said, leaning against the door frame.
"You're not going to lose me, I promise!" Finn said for the last time.
Quinn stood there speechless. She couldn't say anything else to make him stay.
"Well, when do you leave?" Quinn asked.
"I leave for basic training in two weeks." Finn said as he left the bed room and walked back into their living room.
"Is it just you?" Quinn asked.
"No, Puck and Artie are enlisting too. So I won't be alone." Finn said as he kissed Quinn on the cheek.
"I trust your life in Artie's hands, but not Puck's." Quinn said, rolling her eyes.
"Don't worry. I'll be fine." Finn said.
"Brittany, can I talk to you about something?" Artie said as he ate his dinner.
"Sure babe. What's up?" Brittany said, as she fed her baby son.
"What would you say if I joined the army?" Artie asked, looking at her.
"I'd say you're a dumbass and I'll kill you myself." Brittany said as she continued to feed her baby.
"Oh, well it's a good thi-" Artie said before being interrupted.
"You're not going into the army, are you?" Brittany asked, turning towards him.
"Well, I was considering it." Artie said as he took another bite of his food.
"Absolutely not! Artie, you have a son now." Brittany said as she stood up.
"But baby, I'll be okay." Artie said as he tried to reassure her.
"That's not the point. You'll be in a whole new country, away from me and your son. How will you manage to be with us if you're over there?" Brittany asked.
"They have video computers, so I can see you both and talk to you." Artie said, cleaning up the kitchen table.
"Are you sure? I just don't want anything to happen to you." Brittany said, holding their baby.
"I'll be fine. I promise." Artie said as he kissed his wife.
Brittany and Artie have been together since their sophomore year in high school. While Artie graduated from Miami (OH) University, Brittany had to stay at home to raise their baby. He accidently impregnated Brittany their freshman year when she came up and visited Artie. Their junior year, Artie felt the urge to propose to her. Luckily for him, Brittany agreed and moved in with him as he bought a house on campus. Once Artie graduated, he and his wife moved to the opposite outskirts of Lima.
"I just don't want to be a widow with a baby." Brittany said as she picked up their son and burped him.
"You won't. Besides, I'll be with Puck and Finn anyways. They won't let anything happen to me." Artie said with a smile.
"I'd be more worried about Puck then I would with anyone else." Brittany said with a small laugh.
"Good point. Finn will be there and won't let anything happen to me." Artie said with a grin.
"Alright, alright. Well when do you leave?" Brittany asked, refocusing.
"Two weeks then I go to Basic Training." Artie said as he kissed both Brittany and their son.
Still unsure on how she felt, Brittany nodded her head and gave him a fake smile. Giving the baby to Artie, Brittany went outside to cry a little.
"Hey Santana, can you grab me a beer out of the fridge?" Puck said as he lounged on the couch and watched TV.
"You lazy asshole." Santana said as she handed him the beer.
"Love you." Puck said as he twisted the cap and took a sip.
Puck and Santana moved in together after he got her pregnant after their senior year. Since then, Puck attended community college, while Santana stayed at home and took care of their baby girl. Five years later, Puck now works at an auto-shop, while Santana works as a secretary and their 5 year old is in kindergarten. He's considered asking Santana to marry him, but never found the right moment. Puck had more important news to tell her.
"Hey Santana, can you come back in here for a moment? I need to talk to you about something." Puck yelled as he turned to ESPN.
"What is it now?" Santana said, storming into the room.
"Sit down. This is going to be hard to say." Puck said, turning off the TV and turned to her.
Santana, unsure what he was going to say, sat down. Their daughter ran in and sat next to her.
"Crap. Now my daughter's going to here this?" Puck said in his head, taking a sip of his beer.
"Well?" Santana said, rushing him.
"Okay okay. Well, I'm joining the army. I leave in two weeks." Puck said, standing up.
Santana sat in silence. She couldn't move or speak, because she was in shock. Their daughter ran up to Puck and gave him a hug.
"I love you, daddy." She said with a smile.
"Aw I love you too, baby girl. Go play for a few minutes while I talk to mommy." Puck said with a smile as his daughter ran off. "Santana? Are you okay?" He asked as he sat next to Santana.
Santana, finally coming around, looked at him and slapped him square in the face.
"How the Hell can you join the army? Is your codename for breaking up with me?" Santana asked, screaming at him.
"No, I'm not breaking up with you! I'm going into the army because I'm sick of working in the auto-shop and want to do something with me life." Puck said, screaming back.
"You'll get yourself killed! Besides, you have a daughter in case you've forgotten!" Santana said.
"I'll be fine! I'm going with Finn and Artie!" Puck said back.
"Oh great, you're going with a stupid guy and a nerd. That will work out great." Santana said.
"Don't talk to my friends like that. I'm sick of you never supporting my choices." Puck said, walking away.
"Why should I? You got me pregnant!" Santana said.
Puck went outside and started smoking.
"Can't wait to get out of here for a change." He said to himself as he enjoyed the summer Ohio night.
