A/N: Ok guys I know it has been a couple days since I updated but I'm having computer issues (I'm actually uploading this using my friends computer) I have a couple of the chapters saved on my flashdrive but I will have to see how my computer issues turn out so it may be a little longer between updates for a little while.
"Did you think we didn't know you were all in here?" He asked.
"What tipped you off?" asked Mercedes.
"Puck went to class and we knew something had to be up. Originally we assumed football team, but when only 5 players seemed to be acting strange we began to suspect Glee."
They all sighed, as Mr. Schuster continued. "Rachel your parents are here. The rest of you get back to class"
Rachel seemed to try and curl up into more of a ball than she already was, while still clinging to Puck and Mike. The boys went to stand up and file out of the room, but were pulled back into their seats by the surprisingly strong Rachel. Kurt hung back as well leaving the four students and Mr. Schuster alone in the room. "Well come on get going." Mr. Schuster instructed.
"How do they seem?" Rachel asked.
Mr. Schuster turned and could see something was off , and the three boys made no attempt to move. "They seemed fine Rachel" Mr. Schuster said carefully watching Rachel's face.
"Alright" Rachel said freeing herself from Puck and Mike.
She tried to send some signals to Kurt pointing to her black skirt then her eye, then to her red sweater and grabbing her own arm. She gave him pleading eyes as she walked out of the room followed by Mr. Schuster. The three boys sat there for a few minutes until Kurt swore and ran from the room. "What was that all about?" Mike asked Puck. "Not a clue."
Kurt raced down the hallway and prayed to God that he was wrong. When Rachel had made the comment that she was just trying to dull the pain then added under her breath so he had almost missed it that it seemed to work for her parents he had brushed it off. Now he didn't like where his mind was going. He ran into the secretary's office. Rachel seemed to breathe as he walked in. He didn't know what was really going on but he had to get her out of there. Well here goes nothing he thought as he walked into Figgins office.
"Um excuse me but I really need to talk to Rachel." He said.
"About what?" asked Figgins.
"Some personal stuff that only she knows about and I just really need some support right now." He replied.
Figgins wasn't buying it and asked, "Why don't you just go talk to Ms. Pillsbury?"
Kurt hesitated for a second then replied, "I will but I would still really like Rachel to come with me. I don't know if I can discuss it without some moral support."
"We were just gonna take Rachel home since she doesn't have a car and was apparently too sick to actually go to any classes today." Stated Mr. Berry.
Raising his right hand Kurt replied, "I promise that I will take care of Rachel." Rachel's parents exchanged glances, but felt stuck and just nodded their heads and walked out. They were followed by Mr. Schuster and finally Kurt and Rachel.
As soon as they got around the corner Kurt pulled Rachel in for a hug. As Kurt held Rachel he saw Puck coming towards them and motioned him over. "Ms. Bee as much as I am worried about you this is a new shirt and besides I have a feeling you will be more comfortable this way" He said as he slowly moved and placed Rachel into Pucks waiting slightly startled arms. "Come along now you two" Kurt instructed walking away. Puck scooped up Rachel seeing as how she looked exhausted and followed Kurt to an empty classroom.
"Ok Rachel what you told me earlier…Is your dad…" Kurt said staring into her eyes.
Before Kurt could finish the question Rachel interrupted "Yes."
"Ok" continued Kurt "And your mom?"
Rachel shook her head and lifted a skinny V up to her lips and Kurt nodded in understanding.
"You need to tell someone" Kurt ordered her.
"I believe I just told you" Rachel shot back.
"No I guessed. It doesn't count." He shot back at her.
"Ok what are you two talking about?" Puck insisted.
"Well Rachel, go ahead and tell him" Kurt said smiling.
"Nothing! I just want to go home." Rachel yelled slightly angry.
"That I can't let you do Ms. Bee, and you know perfectly well why. Please just tell Puck or I will." Kurt challenged.
Rachel sighed. "Fine I will tell him on the way home, and he can't drop me off until he says it is okay" Rachel compromised.
"Fine." Kurt said as he stepped closer to Puck and said "Protect her." Kurt then turned on his heal walked out of the room.
Rachel and Puck walked to his truck in silence. He helped her in the truck then walked over to the driver's side and decided that he had to break the silence. "Okay where to?"
"How about the park?" suggested Rachel.
The rest of the ride was silent until Puck pulled up to the park and jumped out of the truck and began walking across the park.
"Hey where are you going?" Rachel shouted after him.
"You said you wanted to go to the park." He said waiting for Rachel to catch up.
"I thought we were gonna talk" Said Rachel.
"Last time I tried to force you to talk you got drunk. I figure I can wait." He replied simply. They walked back through the park and back to Puck's truck in silence.
Puck started to drive again and soon pulled up outside a house. "Why are we here?" asked Rachel.
"I'm hungry." Puck stated simply. Rachel paused it had been a long time since she was in his house. She hadn't actually been here since they had dated for that one week. She was extremely nervous. Puck's mom loved her but still she had been the one to break off the relationship and his mother had to be at least a little angry with her.
Puck turned to see Rachel cemented in that same spot in his driveway. "Rachel! Earth to Rachel! Come on let's go!" Puck yelled impatiently.
As they walked into the door Puck yelled to his mother that he was home and Rachel was with him. His mother called back telling the two to wash up then come to dinner. Rachel and Puck walked upstairs to clean up in silence. Dinner was pretty quiet as well except for Puck's sister Hannah talking about Zac Lautner or Taylor Efron or something like that. When dinner was over Puck's mom sent Hannah up to her room so she could have a talk with Puck and Rachel.
The three sat in the living room and Puck's mother Deborah turned to Rachel. "So I understand my son was out searching for you until 4am this morning."
Rachel turned a shade of red, "I'm sorry. I didn't intend for you to have to worry about him".
"That wasn't my point Rachel I trust my son. I am more worried about you anyway. You know I think of you as a daughter. I just want to know what is going on with you, honey."
Rachel sighed. Though she hated to admit it she had thought of Deborah like a mom when she and Puck had dated, she was even a little jealous. "Well seeing as how I was going to tell Puck anyway I might as well tell you both." Rachel took a breath then began her story of the past 20 some hours.
A/N: So Kurt figured it out. Did you? Again I love Kurt in this episode again. Yay for Kurt saving the day! So in this next chapter you will finally get the entire story of Rachel and the song, and the guy, and maybe some things you didn't expect or maybe you did but the next chapter will be out soon either way.
