The prompt was from HaylinOka and had everyone finding out about Puckleberry with Finn bashing! Which I love to do :) Hope you enjoy!

He could feel her shaking against him and sighed, putting his hands on her shoulders and turning her around to face him, "Rach, baby, everything is gonna be okay. I promise."

Rachel nodded with wide eyes and settled into his side as they got closer to the school. Puck's arm was wrapped protectively around her shoulder as he opened the door and led them through.

"Noah, they're staring. Everybody is staring."

Puck chuckled quietly, "Of course they are, babe. We're two hot jews!"

The brunette rolled her eyes and swatted at his chest, but had a small smile across her lips, "You're incorrigible."

They made their way to the choir room where their friends were chatting and waited. The group did not disappoint. Kurt and Brittany squealed, stepping forward to tackle Rachel happily. That seemed to be the catalyst for everyone soon swarmed the newly formed couple and spoke at once.

"I knew it!"

"Puckleberry is back, losers!"

Mike stepped forward during the chaos and laid a hand on the mohawked teen's shoulder, "Take care of her, Puck."

"Chang, just because she's dating me doesn't mean she loves you any less. You have like half of her heart. You've always protected her. You're like her big brother and she wouldn't give that up for the world. Besides, with you dating Satan, Rach is gonna demand double dates every weekend."

The Asian chuckled and fistbumped his friend, "Thank you." They both turned to look at the tiny brunette who had captured both of their hearts. She was currently sitting on Artie's lap as he hugged her tightly and did tricks in his wheelchair while she squeaked.

"You weren't such a whore when we dated, Rachel."

All eyes turned to Finn, who was standing with his arms crossed across his chest as he smirked.

"Finnocence," Santana growled out, taking a threatening step forward before Mike and Brittany restrained her.

"Don't do this, Finn." Rachel begged, her eyes closed as she shook her head back and forth frantically.

The tall jock raised an eyebrow, "I'm just being honest."

And before anyone even noticed he had moved, Finn was stepping forward and raising his hand. A loud slap registered and Rachel hit the ground hard, her fingers touching her cheek in shock.

Puck let out a low growl and charged at the teenager, wearing a rage filled expression. His small, injured, girlfriend sat curled into a ball on the floor, a sobbing wreck. The only thought in his mind as he pummeled into Finn was that the overly tall giant was the cause of her pain. And he loved her, more than he ever thought he could love someone, so he continued to punch Frankenteen's face in with no remorse.

The second Finn started to fight back, Matt and Sam were behind him, holding the teenager still. Puck gave him one last look before nodding towards his two friends and storming away to sit next to his girlfriend. She was practically comatose, though her lower lip quivered and tears streamed down her cheeks. A bruise was already forming on her tan skin as Santana held her tightly and rocked her back and forth. Brittany sat close by, stroking the girl's hair and pressing kisses to the top of her head with Quinn in front of the singer as the blond squeezed her hands and rambled on. Tina sat on Artie's lap as the created a barrier with Kurt and Mercedes so Finn couldn't hurt the tiny diva again. Puck kissed his girl's forehead and spoke quietly to her, but she didn't reply. She didn't blink. She just stared ahead with a heartbroken, frozen expression.

Mike was angry, angrier than he had ever been before. He knew he was letting his rage get the best of him, but he couldn't find it in himself to stop as he repeatedly punched the form on the ground in front of him. Finn had long been unconscious, but he couldn't see past the red engulfing him. Matt and Sam tried to grab him, but he slipped out of their hold quickly and went back to his mission.

"Why won't she calm down?" Mercedes asked, watching the tiny brunette who had wormed her way into all of their hearts.

Brittany smiled and kissed Rachel's cheek, "Only Mike can make her feel better. He's used to her panic attacks. He's her protector."

"But she's dating Puck?"

"Duh," The blond replied, looking at them as if they were dim, "But she is Mike's little sister. Not really cause that would mean Shelby is Mike's mom and that doesn't even make sense to me! But Mike stays with her most nights. They practically live together."

The small group's eyes widened and they collectively gasped. All except Santana and Puck.

"Would you guys take a chill pill? It's not that big of a deal. Rae's dads are never home. They basically abandoned her when she turned 12. So Mike found out and he lives with her to keep her safe and stuff. His mom loves Rae, so she basically ordered him to after Rae refused to move in with them." Santana chimed in, rolling her eyes at their denseness.

"So Mike moved in with her?" Kurt asked, trying to keep up.

Brittany nodded, "Yes! Now you're getting it. So when Karofsky tried to break into her house, Mike beat him up and made sure Rachie was safe."

"We'll get back to the Karofsky thing later, Britt, but for now, can someone get Mike so Rach won't suffocate herself?" Puck asked, noticing that his girlfriend was turning red and had started gasping and clutching her chest.

"Mike! Get over here!"

"Chang!"

"Dude, he's unconscious already!"

"Sam, grab him!"

"Mike!"

and a myriad of other phrases were shouted, but the Asian didn't move. Finally Brittany sighed and whistled sharply to stop the talking before turning to Mike and smiling sweetly, "Rachie needs you."

It was as if a haze had been lifted off of the boy and he dropped Finn and sprinted over to his little sister. He fell to his knees and pulled her onto his lap, his arms wrapped protectively around her small waist. He took her hand and placed it to his chest, so she could feel his breathing, "Come on, Rach, sweetie, just breathe. You can do it."

And she did. Puck smiled at the sight of color returning to her cheeks as body stopped shaking. He knew that Mike and Rachel had a strange bond and he would never be able to understand it. It was like Santana and Brittany or Mike and Matt. It was just how things were. He could comprehend that Rach and Sam liked to dork out together and that Britt and Rach had some strange connection that allowed them to see things that others never did, but Mike and his girlfriend just fit. Not in a romantic way, but in a family way. They were all a family.

Some were just closer than others. And some, he thought as he looked to Finn's unconscious form, were evil and needed a good beat-down.
