A/N: I don't own Glee. Sorry it took me so long. I couldn't decide it this was really the route I wanted to go. Enjoy!!

Chapter Three

"Are you going to her appointment," Brittany asked him randomly.

Puck looked up from his position under the piano. Rachel had somehow gotten her sock caught and didn't want to risk tearing her knee high's. Personally, he thought the view was fantastic so he wasn't all that perturbed at being put to work.

"Huh?"

Brittany eyed him before clarifying, "Quinn said at lunch that her stomach was hurting pretty badly. She scheduled an appointment after school."

Afraid, Puck sat up and banged his head on the piano. He saw Rachel twist and pull her sock off before kneeling next to him. Her eyes were wide as she helped him out from underneath the monster.

"What! Why didn't she tell me? She could be miscarrying!"

Puck felt himself getting more and more out of control. Continuing his rant, Puck began pacing the room. If his little girl was in trouble he had a right to know damn it! And he had thought he and Quinn were getting better at this whole pregnancy dependency thing. Even though she was adamant on setting her up for adoption, Puck was fairly certain he would fight for custody. However, he wasn't exactly the ideal father for the baby so a judge, someone who doesn't fucking know him, would put his-

"Noah," a smaller hand rested on his arm.

Whirling around he almost hit Rachel with his uncontrolled arm. She backed up and said his name again. That's when he realized he had said everything and she was trying not to appear upset. Brittany, as well as Mike and Mercedes were staring at him shocked. Looking back at Rachel, Puck swore.

"Damnit Rachel!"

Turning he left the room and hunted for his pregnant not-girlfriend. He saw her in the nurse's office with Finn holding her hand. Seething he punched at the lockers next to him. In the process he almost hit Rachel again, who must have followed him.

"Sorry. I," he didn't know how to continue. But Rachel said something which made him realize how well she understood him. It made him even more upset.

"You're scared, it's okay. That would be anyone's reaction to this sort of news.

"However, I would like to point out that you should calm down before talking to the two of them, because Quinn shouldn't be under pressure at the juncture."

She had said it all softly and without any censure. Rachel touched his arm lightly causing him to look up at her.

"You never know, maybe it's nothing," she tried to look upbeat.

He snorted and shook her off before nodding a thanks. Deciding to get away from everyone, Puck walked away. When he sat on the bleachers at the football field he closed his eyes. Puck knew that Finn would forgive Quinn and eventually get back together with her. What he didn't think was that his best friend still wouldn't hold a conversation just between them. It had been weeks since Finn found out. Ample time to start the recover their friendship phase.

And since his best friend wasn't really talking to him, Puck had resorted to befriending Rachel Berry. He wonders though if it was all that bad, because even though it got awkward, she just had to wear those skirts, Rachel was fiercely loyal. It was nice having someone stand up for him. Just two days ago, Quinn was having one of her mood swings, which were definitely worse when pregnant, and she got up in his face and yelled at him. He kinda just let her; Puck knew he would get in serious trouble if he did anything. But Rachel pushed him away and told Quinn to walk away.

Quinn went psycho and before he blinked Rachel told her to leave Puck alone and grabbed his arm and dragged him down the hall. Later that day, he had to threaten to cut off Hardy's balls if he ever told Rachel Berry that she wasn't fooling anyone, that she wore skirts to hide her junk, again. He would have done more but the tears that Rachel had tried to hide from him when she ran into him, popped up in front of his eyes. Puck found her in the auditorium sitting on the edge of the stage, face buried in her hands.

He heard someone sit down next to him and he opened his eyes. Rachel, of course. He is so tempted to roll his eyes, but the mess that would cause was definitely not worth it. Actually, now that he thought about it, he hadn't rolled his eyes very much lately. Damn! She was changing his habits! Not cool.

"Um, Noah."

No. No, this can't be good. He turns away from her to shield himself from her words.

"An ambulance came. Quinn, she, that is to say they… she was bleeding! You should, go and…"

It was by far the most difficult thing to listen to in his life because she was stumbling and nervous. Rachel was never stumbling or nervous. And when her words sunk in he felt like his heart was shriveling and falling into his stomach. Rachel shifted behind him and he shot up and ran to his truck. Almost all of Glee was waiting there for him.

"Get the fuck outta my way," Puck growled.

Kurt and Tina immediately jumped away and Brittany, Santana, Mercedes, and Mike all shifted. Matt, however, crossed his arms and jingled the keys. Puck grabbed at them but Matt shook his head.

"Get in, I'll drive."

Puck growled again, "Give me my keys."

Mike and Artie both moved between him and Matt. Rachel ran up, shoes in hand, and disheveled.

"Puck, man, get in. I'll drive you."

Artie spoke up, "Let him, you know if you get in an accident it wouldn't do any good."

Mercedes hummed in agreement. He sighed forcefully but nodded and got into his truck. Matt climbed in and started the engine waiting when Puck's door opened and Rachel climbed in. She scrambled over him and settled between the two football players. Puck closed his door and pointed to the road.

They got to the hospital too slowly in Puck's mind but Rachel looked like she was about to hurl. Ignoring her, Puck rushed in to see the Fabray's and Finn sitting in the corner crying. His heart slammed uncomfortably and stopped.

"Noah," Mr. Fabray started. "She, she miscarried."

Finn sniffled and looked at him sadly. Mrs. Fabray was sobbing into her husband's shirt. Finn and Puck both glared at the Fabray's because they weren't there for their daughter when she needed them.

"Where is she?"

They stared at him before finally Finn said,

"They have her in room 303. They're running some tests."

Puck turned and looked for her room. Matt was standing shell-shocked in the middle of the room with Rachel. As he passed them, he heard Mercedes and Kurt as they entered the hospital. He brushed passed them as well as Mr. Schue and continued his search. It took some time, but he finally found her. Puck listened to her broken sobbing as he tried to knock on her door.

"Who are you?"

Puck looked at a nurse as she stood outside the door. The older lady was giving him a once over and apparently wasn't all too impressed with what she saw.

"Are you family?"

He nodded, staying mute. She studied him before entering Quinn's room. He stayed outside while the nurse talked gently to Quinn.

"Honey, you can go in now," the nurse came out of the room. "Just be careful. She's very emotional right now."

Taking a deep breath, Puck pushed the door open and entered the room. They stared at each other before she started crying once again. Moving to her, Puck climbed into the bed and held her. Not knowing how long he had been trying to comfort Quinn, Puck was slightly surprised when the other Glee members all came in one by one and didn't say a word but instead just patting her or sitting for a little bit.

Later, when the unimpressed nurse kicked him out saying visiting hours were over, he was shocked to see that everyone had stayed. Kurt was sleeping on Mercedes' shoulder and Tina had her feet in Artie's lap, her head bent forward. Artie was chatting with Brittany and Matt while Mike and Santana played what looked like Go Fish! Rachel and Mercedes were looking over sheet music poking at Finn to comment.

"Hey."

They all looked up at him in various stages of 'we're caught' expressions on their faces. Except Kurt who still remained sleeping.

"Ready to go home," Matt asked, glancing at the Fabray's who were drinking coffee in the corner talking to Mr. Schue. Puck noticed the others glanced at the adults too and most of them scowled at the Fabray's.

He nodded. It was weird for so many people to be there for him. Or maybe Quinn. But they had stayed, right? The only people to stay with him were his mom and sister, but it wasn't like his little sister was capable of leaving at her age.

Matt and Rachel stood up and made their way through the legs of the others before standing next to him. Puck wanted to thank the group, but he couldn't. It didn't seem to matter to them though because they all followed Matt and Rachel's lead. As they all left the waiting room, Puck caught Rachel giving Finn a hug. Finn's eyes were red and he wiped at his nose before looking Puck in the eye.

"I'm sorry."

Next thing Puck knows, Finn has wrapped him in a hug. Feeling a little awkward, it was a pretty emotional thing to do and Puck was not emotional, Puck patted Finn's back. Finn stepped back and clapped him on the shoulder before making his way to Santana's vehicle.

A/N: Please review! I need some help. What song do you think Puck would find funny? I've got so many ideas, but I'd like to know what you think!
