Papa Don't Preach

Chapter 7

"Firework Father's."

Beth's POV

It had been a week since I had gone to school. I was still scared... I had already admitted to Rachel previously that I did have contact with the baby's dad. It was just about time for me to tell Finn. I walked into the kitchen where Finn was eating some cereal.

"Hey Beth." he said between munches.

"Finn, can we talk?" I asked, my throat threatening to close at any moment now.

"Sure thing." he said, motioning for me to take a seat right next to him. "What's up?"

"I know the baby's dad-That's why I haven't been going to school..." I admitted, getting right to the point.

"Okay...? You think Rach didn't tell me that already?" he asked.

"Well, no..." I confessed, blushing.

"The school office is getting curious Beth. It's about time you go back to school."

I nodded in agreement.

"Would you like to go today?" he offered. "I'll drive you if you want."

I glimpsed at the clock. "5 a.m." the clock said.

"Well, sure. I still have time." I said, standing.

"I'll be right here," he said still chewing.

Finn pulled up to the school building. I quietly fixed my blouse, and opened the car door.

"Beth!" he called, as I was closing the door behind me. "I love you. Go make us proud." he said, smiling.

I chuckled, taken by surprise. "I love you guys too." I closed the door, smiling like an idiot. I took my time to my locker, not caring if Josh approached me. I walked with certain courage in my stride to the Glee club room.

I opened the Glee door with ease, and took a seat in between Marina and Adrienne.

A different teacher walked into the room, taking Mr. Matt's place.

"Hey guys.." he said quietly.

"Who are you?" Annabel, the usually quiet one, pondered.

"Just call me Joseph. Joe would be fine. I'm Mr. Matt's replacement. He's... In prison. Supposedly, he was loitering..." he said locking eyes with me. I felt awkward. He looked confused too.

"Who's going first?" he asked, not getting into too much detail about his life.

Marina, Kendra, and Adrianne stood.

"Beth, we dedicate this song to you." the girls said in unison. Each girl took a turn singing a verse.

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag?

Drifting through the wind

Wanting to start again

Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin

Like a house of cards

One blow from caving in

Do you ever feel already buried deep

Six feet under screams

But no one seems to hear a thing

Do you know that there's still a chance for you

Cause there's a spark in you

You just gotta ignite the light

And let it shine

Just own the night

Like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you're a firework

Come on show 'em what your worth

Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"

As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework

Come on let your colors burst

Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"

You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own

You don't have to feel like a waste of space

You're original, cannot be replaced

If you only knew what the future holds

After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed

So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road

Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow

And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light

And let it shine

Just own the night

Like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you're a firework

Come on show 'em what your worth

Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"

As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework

Come on let your colors burst

Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"

You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own

Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

It's always been inside of you, you, you

And now it's time to let it through

Cause baby you're a firework

Come on show 'em what your worth

Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"

As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework

Come on let your colors burst

Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"

You're gonna leave 'em goin' "Oh, oh, oh!"

Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon.

I felt tears of joy coming. I smiled even more madly. Josh just stared at me. I noted that his arm was draped over Shaileen's shoulders. I chucked. Looooseeeerrr..

They all took turns hugging me. Josh stood up, his face almost irritated.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" he growled.

"What are you talking about?" I snapped. Please, I thought. God, don't make me do this in public. He took a step closer to me. I felt threatened.

"Tell me what you had to say." he snarled.

"Hey." Joseph snapped, his face serious, and almost angry. "Leave her alone."

And with that, Josh backed off.

"I'll tell you later. At my locker. And I won't run away this time." I snarled back.

Joseph looked at both of us, while we all settled in our seats once again.

"Would anyone like to go next?" Joe asked.

Shaileen shrugged Josh's arm off, and stood. Her "Frou-frou Crew" as my friends referred to it as, stood as well. I sighed, rolling my eyes. The frou-frou's were made up of Queen Bee, Shaileen, Stupid Andrea, and Demanding Isabel.

The annoying beat started. No doubt, a Ke$ha number.

There's a place downtown,

Where the freaks all come around.

It's a hole in the wall.

It's a dirty free for all.

When the dark

Of the night comes around.

That's the time,

That the animal comes alive.

Looking for

Something wild.

And now we lookin' like pimps

In my gold Trans-Am.

Got a water bottle full of whiskey

In my handbag.

Got my drunk text on

I'll regret it in the mornin'

But tonight

I don't give a

I don't give a

I don't give a

There's a place downtown,

Where the freaks all come around.

It's a hole in the wall.

It's a dirty free for all.

And they turn me on.

When they Take It Off.

When they Take It Off.

Everybody Take It Off.

There's a place I know

If you're looking for a show.

Where they go hardcore

And there's glitter on the floor.

And they turn me on.

When they Take It Off.

When they Take It Off.

Everybody Take It Off.

Lose your mind.

Lose it now.

Lose your clothes

In the crowd.

We're delirious.

Tear it down

'Till the sun comes back around.

N-now we're getting so smashed.

Knocking over trash cans.

Everybody breaking bottles

It's a filthy hot mess.

Gonna get faded

I'm not the designated

Driver so

I don't give a

I don't give a

I don't give a...

There's a place downtown,

Where the freaks all come around.

It's a hole in the wall.

It's a dirty free fo...

Shaileen was doing a provocative dance around Josh. That was it-I completely snapped.

"This is a school, NOT a strip tease." I practically yelled.

"What do you care?" Josh snapped.

I took a deep breath. "Josh, that is no behavior for a dad-to-be."

"Wha..?" he said, his eyes softening. Shaileen was shocked too.

"You heard me." I said, crying. "Your gonna be a dad. Happy now? That's what I had to tell you." I said, storming out of the room.

I was sobbing when Joe walked outside.

"What? Are you gonna tell me how I'm too young, and that I'm making a huge mistake?" I growled. "Because I've already been told that plenty of times..." I sighed.

"Your dad would've known what to say if he were here." He whispered.

"What are you talking about?" I asked, confused.

"Beth, I'm your uncle. My name is Joseph Puckerman."
