Okay so here it is, another installment in my glee fanfiction. Enjoy

Chapter 6- The Only Exception

Sarah stared at the man in front of her waiting for him to disappear.

"Sarah Sweetie, you're early." Sarah looked over at her dad before looking at the clock.

"Actually I'm twenty minutes late." Sarah looked up at Mr. Puckerman while she moved into the spacious apartment.

"Oh well then." Her dad looked over at Mr. P. "You remember Mr. Puckerman right? Noah's father." Sarah forced a smile.

"Of course nice to see you again." Mr. Puckerman looked around the room smiling at Sarah.

"I'll just be going Will, good to see you again. Sarah." He nodded his head and left the apartment.

The moment the door closed Sarah turned to look at her dad. "Why the hell was he here?"

"He was visiting." Her dad stated like it was the most normal thing in the world.

"Has he been here before?" Her dad groans and walks into his kitchen.

"Sarah I don't see how it matters."

Sarah looked at her dad with a pissed look on her face. "Doesn't matter? Dad he left his family! Do you realize what it means if you hid it from them?"

"Look Sarah, I know this is crazy to you but Sam is my friend, not the Puckermans. I'm loyal to Sam, and if he doesn't want me to tell his family he's in town then I won't." Sarah threw her hands in the air.

"Dad I know! I'm friends with the Puckerman's you can't expect me to keep this from them."

"Sarah are you friends with them or is your mom?" Sarah decides not to answer. She didn't want her dad to know about her and Noah, yet.

"Sarah just drop it okay. Tell me how is the new school."

Till the end of the night Sarah talked about her new friends, Glee and Cheerios. Adding in her crazy teachers. But never told her dad about Puck. Even having to stop herself a couple times with the shuffling of food into mouth.

Puck learned the cords to the song easily. He couldn't figure it out though, figure where he heard it before.

At about 10 Puck saw headlights through his bedroom window. He looked over to see Sarah's car parking he smiled lightly. She got out with a frown on her face. Puck decided then that even thought he hated it he would be going to Mass the next day.

/

Puck sat in the middle of the pew his mom and sister to his right. He saw Sarah's mom slide into next to his mom a small smile on her face.

"Hay guys." She looked a little shocked to see Noah. His mom was shocked to see him ready to go by 8 this morning herself. "Sarah stayed the night at her dad's. I think they were going to do a father/daughter day today." Puck's mom nodded as Puck's lips created a frown. He saw her come home last night. Her car wasn't in the drive this morning but she was there. Where was she?

Sarah parked the car in front of the semi big house thankful to know her friend didn't have any plans. She knocked on the door lightly.

"Sarah, hi thank god. Okay you know how I said I didn't have plans? Well I do, for like right now. I have to go get some food for my dad's bbq tonight. Chips and stuff. You can come." Sarah agreed lightly.

"My car?" He sighed but nodded his head anyway. They got into the old purple bug.

Kurt grabbed a shopping cart and looked over at his new friend. "What's going on? Don't you have mass today?" Sarah nodded her head while stopping in front of the bakery.

"I didn't feel like going today. I always go, and today I needed a break." Sarah told him. Really she knew Puck would be there and didn't want to see him just yet. "How about the sports cupcakes?"

"Yes only because it's for the football team." Sarah looked at the cupcakes below them. "And the ones with notes on them?" Sarah grabbed the cupcake holder and showed them to Kurt.

Kurt laughed at the look of the cupcakes he nodded putting them both in the cart.

They shopped in quiet only talking about upcoming Glee and the food choices.

"Kurt what did Finn tell you about the Crystal thing?" Kurt looked over at her.

"Nothing. He just told me he needed to talk to Rachel."

"Oh." Kurt looked over at the red head.

"What do you know?"

"Well he told Puck that she kissed him. He was going to tell Rachel after the sleepover but didn't get chance." Kurt looked at her again.

"So how is Mr. Puckerman?" Sarah froze. Kurt saw, it took her moment to realize he was talking about Noah.

"Oh Noah, he's good, he's insane but good. He actually wants to help me with my song." Kurt turned into the checkout lane.

"Oh really? Does he know what song you are going to sing?" Sarah shook her head.

"Nope, I gave him the notes. As far as I know he knows nothing."

"As per usual." Kurt responded earning a laugh from his friend.

They checked out and soon where back at Kurt's house. Kurt Pushed open the front door. "We're home!" Sarah laughed at the way Kurt said it. Like it was the best possible thing in the world.

"Finally, Burt's going crazy out there." Finn said grabbing a bag from Kurt. Sarah and Kurt put down the bags and looked into the living room. Surprised to see Puck staring at her.

"Oh hi Noah." Puck nodded in return. So instead of being with her dad she was here.

"Missed you at mass."

"Oh yah sorry about that. Kurt called begging me to help him set up." Kurt looked over at her with a shocked look on his face. Sarah turned her arms folded in front of her staring at Kurt. "Right Kurt?" Kurt nods.

"Right, Quinn and Mercedes couldn't get out of church and looked like Sarah got out of going to the synagogue so all was good." Puck still stared at her.

"You're here early." Sarah stated moving towards him.

"Yah, figured they would need some help and thought Finn could use a friend." Sarah stared at him. "And I wanted to make sure you guys had my favorite food." Sarah laughed and just like that the tension was gone and Puck's arm was around Sarah's shoulder for the rest of the day.

"Hay Sarah give me a ride home? My mom dropped me off after mass." Sarah nodded looking at the clock. It was almost 11 most people had left around 10 they stayed. Now only Quinn and Mercedes were left besides them.

Once in the car Puck looked over to her "Why did you ditch? And don't say Kurt called you if that was the truth your mom would have said that." Sarah looked at him.

"So you actually went just to see me?" A smile appeared on Sarah's lips. Puck's mouth was opening and closing.

"Of course, you are my girlfriend after all." Sarah smiled at his excuse her hand moving and taking his.

"I honestly forgot I told you I'd be there and I didn't feel like going when I woke up so I left before my mom got up and she assumed what she normally did. I was at my dad's." Puck took the answer and smiled over at her again.

"I learned the song. Still have no idea what it is. But I so have it down, it's going to sound awesome." Sarah laughed while pulling into her driveway.

"Cocky much?" Puck smiled.

"Always." He leaned over and gave her a long slow kiss. When they broke his forehead tapped hers. "See you tomorrow. And Remember we have Monday lunch practice." Sarah groaned before smiling.

"We are so going tomorrow." Puck smiled.

Sarah sat in her choir chair next to Puck all of the glee club staring at Rachel and Finn who while sitting next to each other where having a one sided conversation. Finn talking while Rachel just ignored him.

Mr. Shue walked into class with his hands clasped in front of him.

"So guys, who wants to start off?" Sarah raised her hand along with Rachel.

"Alright so Sarah, you start us off." Sarah nodded while getting up and looking at Puck.

"Puck will be playing the gutair. Makign my song acustic only." Mr. Shue nodded while leaning on the Piano.

Sarah sat down on a stool waiting for Puck to start playing the opening. Slowly it came time for her to start singing she closed her eyes and let her voice change into the softer voice she barely ever used when she sang:

When I was younger
I saw my daddy cry
And curse at the wind
He broke his own heart
And I watched
As he tried to reassemble it

Sarah's eyes opened making contact with her following glee club members.

And my momma swore that
She would never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love
If it does not exist

Sarah's head turned to look at Puck a smile gracing her lips.

But darling,
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

Sarah's eyes closed again her face flooding with emotion.

Maybe I know, somewhere
Deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways
To make it alone
Keep a straight face

Her eyes opened again looking at everyone while singing the next verse

And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable, distance
And up until now
I had sworn to myself that I'm
Content with loneliness

Sarah pushed her hair behind her head and looked back over to Puck seeing a smile on his face

Because none of it was ever worth the risk

Well, You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

Puck couldn't help but smile knowing she was singing about him.

I've got a tight grip on reality
But I can't
Let go of what's in front of me here

Sarah let the smile leave her face.

I know you're leaving
In the morning, when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream

Sarah closed her eyes again letting the song take control of her.

Ohh-

You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

Sarah opened her eye looking at everyone in front of her as she finished the song.

And I'm on my way to believing
Oh, And I'm on my way to believing

The moment Puck stopped strumming everyone started to clap a smile make its way back to her lips. She looked over at Noah and got up to hug him.

When Sarah hugged Puck he had to kiss her and her did. Only separating when Mr. Shue told them to stop.

They sat back down Sarah leaning into Puck. When Rachel got up she looked over at the crowd.

"I'm also singing a song from Paramore, this song I believe expresses just how I feel right now."

With that the band started playing. Rachel's head banging each time the drummer would hit the bass.

No sir, well I don't wanna be the blame, not anymore.
It's your turn, so take a seat we're settling the final score.
And why do we like to hurt so much?

Rachel started to dance around everyone stopping in front of Finn.

I can't decide
You have made it harder just to go on
And why, all the possibilities where I was wrong

Rachel couldn't help but dance around everyone else bending down slightly and closing her eyes.

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating.
And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.

Rachel stops and starts to dance with her hands. She stopped in front of everyone.

I wonder, how am I supposed to feel when you're not here.
'Cause I burned every bridge I ever built when you were here.
I still try holding onto silly things, I never learn.
Oh why, all the possibilities I'm sure you've heard.

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating (beating)
And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.

Rachel opened her eyes and stared right at Finn who was trying to shrink into his seat.

Pain make your way to me, to me.
And I'll always be just so inviting.
If I ever start to think straight,
This heart will start a riot in me,
Let's start, start, hey!

Why do we like to hurt so much?
Oh why do we like to hurt so much?

That's what you get when you let your heart win!
Whoa.

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.

Now I can't trust myself with anything but this,
And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa

As Rachel ending a smile graced her lips. Mr. Shue was the first to start clapping.

"After those two performances I would hate to watch who goes after. Alright guys see you tomorrow after school." With that Mr. Shue left the classroom everyone else starting to get up.

Finn followed Rachel to her locker.

"Rachel was that about?" Rachel opened her locker and started to grab her things calmly.

"That was about you and Crystal kissing. Or did you just forget about that? Or me even."

"Rachel I don't know how you found out about that but-" Rachel closed her locker.

"I know it isn't a lie simply because I saw a picture." Rachel lowered her voice and moved closer to Finn. "How could you do that to me? I love you."

"I love you to babe. Look she kissed me okay?" Rachel laughed.

"Oh like how I kissed you first."

"Yes." Finn then realized there first kiss and ran over to her. Since she started to walk away. "No Rachel I was telling her to leave you alone she got the wrong signal and kissed me. Look Rachel you are the only girl for me. I swear." Rachel nods her head.

"Fine but just let me get it through my head okay? And maybe we need a break. We have to transition still to having an in school relationship, okay?"

"Rachel did you just break up with me?"

"No, it's a break not a break up." Finn nods his head as Rachel walked away. He turned around only to be passed by Sarah and Puck who were looking to perfect and just got him mad. He punched a locker and walked away. He knew exactly how to fix this, the perfect song.
