Chapter 2

The silence of the room was deafening after Tina's announcement, even Will was too scared to say anything, the idea of quiet little Tina pregnant was stunning them the fact that Mike was apparently the father even more so. Feeling like she had been punched in the gut Rachel moved to get off Mike's lap but he pinned her close to him, more scared about her walking away then his apparent impending fatherhood, Rachel fought his grip though, peeling his arms from around her waist to get up and stumble away.

"Has no one in this bloody club heard of contraception" she demanded before walking out of the choir room and slamming the door closed behind her, Puck and Santana jumped to their feet and hurried after her, Mike seconds behind them.

"Dude I think you got bigger fish to fry" Puck said pushing Mike back as Santana went ahead "deal with Tina I'll look after Rachel"

"Tell her, tell her I love her" Mike mumbled before turning to Tina, Kurt and Mercedes holding her as they glared at him "Oh fuck off with the glares, she broke up with me not the other way round"

"Yeah you let your pregnant girlfriend break up with you" Kurt laughed "really noble"

"Do you live in the same world as us? Seriously you just heard her tell me that she was pregnant how was I supposed to know before? Telepathy?"

Kurt sniffed in defeat and smoothed back his hair.

"Can we not do this now? Right you hate me well fucking done, Tina...are you sure?"

"Of course I am!" Tina protested "like I want to be pregnant at all, let alone with your kid"

"Well at least we are in agreement with that" Mike said scathingly "seeing as I used a condom and you said you were on the pill this shouldn't be happening"

"Ok maybe the both of you should calm down a little" Will said calmly

"Fine, I'm not on the pill but...this isn't my fault!" Tina said before bursting into tears and clinging to Mercedes.

"No it's both of our faults" Mike said reluctantly "so now that you have informed me of this fucked up situation what exactly do you want?"

"I...I...I want...you" Tina sobbed "I can't do this alone"

"You never had me" Mike said harshly "but I'll be there for my kid, look I can't deal with this now I'm to pissed, we'll talk tomorrow"

"I think that is a good idea" Will said "everyone just walk away and calm down"

"Gladly" Mike snapped before storming out of the choir room slamming the door behind him, making Tina jump and start to cry again.

Mike stalked down the hallway, for once his emotions right on the surface his anger clear in his body language, making everyone jump out of his way as he searched for his girlfriend. Who was currently sobbing in her own anger in the bed of Puck's truck, him on one side of her as Santana lay at her feet. Santana's friendship was a by-product of the situation where Rachel and Mike had got together, as the only one who knew what was going on her and Rachel had developed a bond.

"I can't believe he even slept with Tina" Rachel snapped for the third time dashing the tears from her cheeks and hugging her legs to her chest to warm herself up.

"I wouldn't do that B, everyone can look down you skirt" Santana advised lazily, making Rachel's legs snap down again, as Puck craned his head to look, only earning himself an elbow to the gut for his troubles.

Rolling his eyes he leant through the back window of his truck and handed Rachel the sweatshirt he pulled out for her "wear this B" Rachel took it gratefully and pulled it over her head lift her hips so that it covered as much of her as it could. "Look I know this sucks, but it was before you two were together"

"I know it was, but in the last 2 months he could have said that he had slept with Tina and he didn't, and I just how do I react to this? How do I deal with my boyfriend having a baby with someone else? With a girl whose best friends with the people who having been making my life hell in the last few months"

"I don't know, I thought I could help because I went through but this, this is not as fucked up as my situation but still fucked up" Puck shrugged "Mike did tell me to tell you that he loves you"

"I know he does, but I just don't know how to deal with this" Rachel said quietly, Puck grimaced in sympathy and wrapped his arm around her shoulders pulling her close, knowing that Rachel just really needed a hug now. Cuddling up to his side Rachel lay her head down on her chest and closed her eyes, she just didn't want to have to deal with this now clinging to her best friend she let her tears dry as she tried to just relax.

Mike exited the school after checking all of Rachel's usual haunts, as well as Puck's and Santana's, spotting Puck's tell tale shaved head in the back of the truck he headed for it only to be halted by Tina's voice "Mike?" she said timidly.

"I'm pretty sure that it's not tomorrow yet" he sighed but not walking away.

"I just, I have an appointment tomorrow I wanted to know if you wanted to come, maybe, uh maybe talk about us"

"There is no us" Mike repeated finally turning to face her "there wasn't one even when we were together, I was a stop gap Tina, don't deny it, I was just there until you got Artie back"

"Then why did you sleep with me?" she yelled defensively

"Hello! I'm a guy! You wanted to have sex and I was down with that because no guy says no, ever, it was more surprising that you wanted sex. Look Tina that's my kid, apparently, and I'll be there for the kid but we have a lot to talk about such as what you're doing with it and stuff. I guess you are about 3 months so you're not going to have an abortion, but adoption or keeping it, we need to discuss it"

"We're having a baby together" Tina said quietly "we should...we should be..."

"No we shouldn't, god Tina did you listen to anything I just said? We aren't going to be together I love Rachel, but I will be there for my kid, now I'm going to go make sure I still have the women I love" Mike said walking away

"The appointment tomorrow" Tina reminded him, stopping him again "are you coming?"

"Yeah for my kid" Mike replied without turning to face her walking away again, leaving her alone.

Tine bit her lip to stop herself from crying again, she felt so alone at the moment sure her mom was supporting her knowing that teenagers made mistakes and Kurt and Mercedes were well and truly on her side, Kurt more than was logical sometimes. But Artie and her relationship was well and truly stalled after she found out she was pregnant, and now Mike the father was walking away from her rather than doing what she hoped which was return to being her boyfriend, he had been a good one and right now with what felt like the weight of the world weighing down on her she wanted that back. She wanted the comfort of him back; the easiness of him being by her side, watching him with Rachel was like a knife in the heart, not because she loved him but because she wanted the easy loving relationship.

"Leggy Pops?" Mike asked as he rounded the end of the truck and saw her cuddled up to Puck asleep, Puck and Santana talking quietly.

"She's as..." Puck started

"I'm awake" Rachel said sitting up and rubbing at her eyes

"Can we talk?" Mike asked quietly, Rachel nodded sharply and slipped off the bed of the truck, avoiding his arms that he put out to help her down, wrapping her arms around her body, hugging Puck's sweatshirt to her body she led him away from Puck and Santana.

"Talk" she said harshly not looking at him.

"Baby I'm so sorry, I know this was before us and that if I had just admitted that I had slept with her this wouldn't be a big deal but..."

"But she's pregnant and it is, because now if I want it or not you have a link to her one that is never going away, and I don't even know if I'm allowed to be mad, but I feel mad"

"Of course you are allowed to be mad" Mike said reaching for her his heart breaking as she moved back quickly so his hand grabbed air "I know this is difficult and hard but we can work through this, I only want to be with you"

"What about your baby? Are you going to keep it? Are you going to be there for Tina? Are you going to put it up for adoption?"

"I don't know" Mike deflated "there is an appointment tomorrow that I'm going through, and I'm going to be there for my kid, but I don't know what Tina is planning"

"I don't know how to deal with this" Rachel admitted "I don't know how I handle this; we finally got together after all the drama and now? And now your ex girlfriend is pregnant and I don't know how to handle this"

"What does this mean for us? Because it can't be the end, I can't lose you Rach"

"I just need a break, you have a lot to figure out and I do too"

"No baby, don't do this"

"I already did" Rachel said sadly before walking away from him again.
