Chapter 2: His Fault
Rachel looked to the voice that said it. 'Here we go' she thought, it happened all the time with every boy she talks to except Kurt , who was gay.
Daniel calm down, we were just talking." Rachel said hoping Noah wouldn't get hurt
"Just talking my ass, Rachel there is no just talking with this guy." He said getting closer to the couple.
"Yeah we were just talking don't you trust me?" Rachel said crossing her arms, Daniel rolled his eyes,
"Go to class Puckerman , I need to talk to my sister." He said, the bell rang just as he said that, Puck bolted to his next class. Rachel tried to go too but Dan stopped her
"Not you We got to talk." He said pulling he back to where he was, she crossed her arms and cocked her hip pissed at him.
"What? We were just talking that's it. Talking! Just because dad left doesn't mean you can step in for him. I'm a big girl Daniel, I can take care of my self." She said then stalked towards the direction of the crowd, Tina was still there waiting for her.
'Just because dad left doesn't mean you can step in for him' Dan thought standing there dumbfounded, he couldn't believe he had turned into his father. He just cared about his sister, that's all. He walked toward his next class which was free so he went to the locker room, he needed a run. He needed to clear his head the thought of Puckerman with his sweet and innocent baby sister was just wrong. After setting a alarm on his hone he jogged out to the track, then he shook his head and began jogging around the track alone. It was quiet, he didn't need and ipod or a "running partner" how Rachel puts it. It was just him reflecting on everything. Why Puck? Why couldn't Rachel fall for a nicer guy, like Finn Hudson? He thought about it just as the alarm on his phone went off, he sighed and jogged towards the school building. Waving absent-mildly to people he barely knew Dan walked to the locker room to shower before lunch. He put his normal clothes on, and grabbed his bag and walked towards the lunch room, while he was walking his best friend, Vince walked up to him
"Dude heading to lunch?" he asked, as Santana walked by him waving with her best friend, Brittney
"Yeah but let me tell you if Puck lets a finger on Rachel I will personally rip his eyes out." Dan said walking into the familiar Lunch room, the junior\ senior jocks were at one table, and they all waved Dan and Vince over, but watching them from a distance was the glee table with Jesse, Quinn , Puck and Finn all long with the other glee members,
"I can't believe cute ponytail was Dan the man's sister." Finn said talking about Rachel. They all saw what happen in the hallway, but Finn wanted to know the whole story, and Quinn wasn't even paying attention.
"Yeah I know wait there she is" Puck said as Rachel was out of the line looking for Mercedes, Tina, and Kurt.
"Rachel, over here." Kurt said waving her over to where he was, he didn't take his eyes off of her as she sat down with her friends.
"Puck I would stop staring if I were you because Dan is looking at you." Jesse said gesturing towards the Jock\Cheerleader table. Puck turned around and Jesse was right Dan was staring at Puck even though Santana was trying to talk to him.
"Dan, are even listening to me? " She asked trying to get his attention, he broke out of his stupor
"Yeah, What? I'm listening." He said turning to her, she rolled her eyes and sighed annoyed
"No your not, you too worried about your sister and that Puck guy. Get over it Dan. She is 14 years old you can handle herself. Which is more then I can say about you." She said, then getting up to storm out of the lunch room. She was so pissed. Dan sighed, and put his hands in is hands. He knew he messed up, his sister was mad at him and now Santana. He wasn't a heartfelt jerk, he just cared for his sister. Is that wrong? Soon the lunch bell rang and everyone got up to go to their next class. Dan said goodbye to his friends, he walked towards Rachel.
"Can I talk to you? Please?" He asked she looked up and rolled her eyes. She pulled her cell phone out to look uninterested.
"Why to yell at me, tell me not to date someone. Look right now I got to get to class, I can't be late again. Even though if I just say you're my brother I'll get off Scott free. I did last time. See you later." She said walking past him where Kurt was waiting because he was in her last few classes.
"What was that about? I mean I saw what happened in the hallway, pretty heavy. By the way that Puck guy your going go after him, or can I?" Kurt asked smiling, Rachel looked up at him since he was taller then her. " Um I'm pretty sure he's straight because he's too cute to be gay. No offense." She said once they reached their class, Algebra 2. They walked in to the room and looked at the seating chart, Rachel looked for her name and it was right there next to Noah Puckerman. She looked at him, he smirked and waved.
"Great, whatever you do don't tell Dan." Rachel said to Kurt who nodded and walked towards his seat, Rachel walked to the back taking small steps.
"This is weird right? Considering….." Puck said as Rachel sat down. She sighed and pulled out her binder, and a pencil
"I'm so sorry about my brother. He does that a lot. After my dad left he sort of taken over the role." She said Puck laughed, and nodded,
" I understand totally, my dad left too so when my sister starts high school. I will be like that. Don't worry about, I totally understand." He said pulling his notebook out too.
"Yeah I'm still really sorry, but maybe we could hang out later. Maybe movies or something." She proposed, Puck sighed why was it so complicated, he liked this girl. Bit he also liked the way his face looked too.
"You barely know me Rachel, I'm sure you don't want to get involved with a guy like me." he said, then the teacher walked in and that conversation was over.
Rachel hadn't talked to Noah for the rest of the day. It was the end of the day anyway, she walked to the football field to watch her brother practice. She walked up to the bleachers, to sit and watch for an hour. She took out her government textbook to get started on the pages of notes she had to do. As she was pulling the book out she saw the glee flyer fall out.
"Glee huh? Maybe you should try out. I hear their really good." A voice said she looked up, and Quinn was standing their.
"Um Yeah, I've heard that Who are you?" Rachel asked, too many people were randomly coming up to her today about this glee club, and she didn't really like it.
"Right, sorry Quinn Fabray, and your Rachel Berry. The girl screwing up puck's mind " She said extending her hand to shake Rachel's. Rachel as confused, it was only her first day of high school, and already she was screwing up someone's mind.
"Right, um do you want to sit down?" Rachel asked Quinn sat down. The two of them talked, about everything from Glee, to the football players, to everything.
"Well really Dan wanted me to tryout for cheerios, and I did but I didn't make it. So maybe I will try Glee, thanks maybe I'll see you at the auditions." Rachel said, looking out at the field. Quinn stood up and said
"Yeah and you know Puck is in Glee too. Just saying, see you later Rachel." Then she walked off the bleachers. Rachel looked confused and smiled, maybe she could try Glee, and maybe even get the guy?
