Never Forgotten Past

Last Time: While driving home from vacation, Rachel figured out that Sarah's pregnant. Puck told her he was scared for Sarah, while the other said she was pretty much fine. Rachel promised to care and help each. And that's what you missed on Never Forgotten Past.

I Misunderstand You, Not You

Sarah's Point of View

I put my history book in my locker before turning to look in the mirror at myself. I looked perfect.

"Move! Excuse me! I'm busy! What are you looking at? Need to get through!"

I rolled my eyes and held back a chuckle at Puck's voice echoing throughout the hallway.

"Hey babe," Puck whispered in my ear before kissing my throat.

I met his gaze in my mirror, "Hi."

"Ready for glee?" Puck asked against my neck.

I laughed and put a hand on his face to stop him, "One, calm down. I'm not going to do anything to you on school property. Two, of course I'm ready, always am. Three, why did you just push your way through half the student body?"

Puck rolled his eyes and put another soft kiss under my jaw before standing up, "To get to you."

I turned in his arms, "Really?"

My boyfriend smirked, "Really."

"Does this have anything to do with seeing Quinn for the first time since her accident?" I asked.

"You're my girlfriend, not Quinn," Puck stated.

I gently moved a hand down his cheek and rested it on the side of his neck, "Yes, but you love Quinn as a friend and as the mother of your daughter. You care about her and want her safe."

Puck sighed, "Ok, fine, yeah I want to see Quinn, but I also wanted to get to you. Today was the longest time we've been without each other in a week, I needed to know you were ok."

I smiled at his sweetness and gave him a hug, "Thank you, that's very nice of you."

"I know, I'm the best boyfriend in the world," Puck smiled.

I laughed and stepped back, "Yes you are."

Puck smirked and grabbed my hand, "Come on, let's get going," he lifted my backpack from the ground and put it over his other arm along with his own.

As we walked in the room, most of everyone was already there. Tina and Brittany were sitting on the ground coloring a welcome back sign for Quinn.

Everyone looked up at us, "Hey you two," Sam smiled.

"Sarah, would you mind helping us put this sign up? We need someone small to do it," Mike asked.

"No!" Puck yelled at the same time I said, "Sure."

"Alright, what's up? Why's Puckerman all protective of the midget?" Santana asked.

"Nothing, he's not protective of me," I said with a glance at Puck.

"That's not what it looks like to me," Mercedes observed.

"I just don't want her getting hurt," Puck muttered as he helped Rory pick up the sign.

"She won't get hurt, now come here Sarah and get on my shoulders," Sam motioned me over.

"Stop, she's not doing it," Puck put an arm out to stop me.

"Noah," I whispered and put a hand on his bicep, "Calm down."

"You know what? I'll just stand on a chair or something, Puck's being annoying," Sam announced.

I sighed and pulled Puck to the side, "What is your problem?" I whispered.

Puck shrugged, "Nothing."

I glared at him, "What do you mean nothing? You're treating me like a baby."

"Maybe that's because you're carrying one," Puck whispered back with a pointed glance at my stomach.

I automatically wrapped my arms around my stomach, "That's no reason."

"What?" Puck yelled.

I winced and could see everyone look at us from the corner of my eye, "Please be quiet."

Puck grabbed my wrist, dragging me from the room, "That is a baby, an actual human being, living inside of you. You can't do anything stupid like climbing on chairs or people's shoulders."

"Since when have you turned into the mother of this baby?" I argued back.

Puck took a step back, "Since when have you turned into one of those crazy, teenage moms who decides not to acknowledge the baby and get drunk?"

I stepped back myself and clenched my hands at my sides, "How dare you? I am not going to try and kill our baby."

"Then don't act like it," Puck scoffed. He eyed my hands and took another step back, "Not taking a chance."

I shook my head, "You are unbelievable."

"Really? Trying to be a good father, that's not a bad thing Sarah," Puck said.

I rolled my eyes and walked past him into the choir room. Angrily, I spotted an open chair between Finn and Rachel and sat down.

Finn put his arm over my shoulder, "Get in a fight with Puck?"

"Ugh," I groaned and slouched down in my chair.

"Are you ok?" Rachel whispered in my ear.

I shook my head, "Puck's being stupid."

Rachel squeezed my hand softly, "Want to talk about it?"

I turned in my seat, "He doesn't think I'm trying my hardest to be a good mother to our baby," I whispered.

Rachel nodded and squeezed my hand a little tighter, "Don't worry, he doesn't know what he's talking about."

"But he does! He's already a father, he knows!" I groaned and put my head in my hand.

"Alright, what's going on?" Finn asked.

Rachel and I turned towards him, "What do you mean?" I asked.

"If you're worried about being a good, big sister, don't worry, you're going to be great to Gabriella Abigail, she'll love you. You're already so good with Grace," Finn smiled.

I gave a soft sigh of relief, "Yeah, well I've never been one before, so I'm not sure," deciding to just go along with Finn's thoughts, ignoring how he thinks he named our sister.

"It's not that hard, just be her best friend, that's what I try to do with you," Finn was so sweet...but clueless.

"Quinn and Artie are coming," Puck smiled and walked into the room.

I shot him a glare, and noticed Rachel do the same. Puck raised his eyebrows at us as he passed to get to his own seat.

Sure enough, Quinn and Artie came in the classroom, or more specifically rolled in, and started singing.

I smiled at how happy Quinn seemed. She looked great for being in a car accident a month ago, besides from the whole paralyzed thing. I turned in my seat to see Puck smiling as well at Quinn and was hit with a feeling of guilt. He probably didn't mean what he had said, he was just looking out for our baby.

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

"Puck!" I ran and grabbed his wrist, "Can we talk?"

"You're talking right now," Puck stated and turned to leave.

I held tighter onto him, "Please, I want to say I'm sorry."

Puck stopped moving, "Go on."

"I shouldn't have offered to do anything even remotely dangerous, it was stupid. I'm sorry," I took a breath and waited for his reaction.

"You know that I don't think you're going to screw up our baby, that's my job," Puck was able to slip from my hand and walk away.

I stood there and watched him head towards the gym. That was the last thing I expected him to say. Did he really think he was going to screw up our baby?

"Hi Sarah."

I looked down to see Quinn smiling at me. I quickly put a smile on my face, "Hi Quinn. You look great! I can't wait until you're walking again."

"Me too," Quinn's smile widened before she glanced to where Puck had left, "What's up?"

I sighed, "Nothing much, everything's normal."

Quinn nodded, but I sensed that she knew I was lying, "Have you seen Beth lately?"

"Yeah, it was actually the day after your accident," I said softly. Puck didn't screw up Beth, she was perfect. Why would he think he was going to screw up this one?

"Oh," Quinn whispered.

I nodded, "He needed her."

Quinn understood, "I'm sorry."

I looked at her with wide eyes, "What are you sorry for?"

"Being stupid. My mom told me about Puck's reaction, that's all my fault," Quinn muttered.

I shook my head, "It's no one's fault that Puck got mad or whatever it was, not even his. Quinn, you made a mistake and you only hurt yourself, not anyone else. I don't know if that helps, but you shouldn't be blaming yourself for how anyone reacted."

Quinn gave a small smile, "Thanks for being honest."

I smiled back, "No problem," I glanced at where Puck had disappeared, "I wonder how long my honesty will help me."

"He loves you, anything you say means something to him," Quinn said softly.

"Everyone says that," I muttered.

Quinn chuckled, "Well, it's true."

I took a deep breath, "I'll see you around. I need to go fix something."

Quinn smiled, "I hope everything turns out right," she turned around and started rolling the opposite way.

I walked towards Puck's direction. I have no idea where he went. Football field? Gym? Locker room? I stopped outside the weight room, and there he was inside on the treadmill. It looked like he was trying to run himself to death. I slowly walked in and sat on one of the benches, "Noah."

Puck gave a small glance at me, "What do you want Sarah?"

"You're not a screw up," I stated.

"Tell that to my mom," Puck grunted.

I stood to stand in front of him, "Why do you think you would screw up our baby?"

"Because I would," Puck said, "Can you leave?"

"No."

Puck rolled his eyes, "I'm staying here for who knows how long. Leave."

"No," I leaned against the wall and watched him. I tried to focus on his face and not his arms or legs or the way his shirt would ride up slightly to reveal his stomach.

After about ten minutes Puck slowed the treadmill down and got off. He walked over to where his towel was laying on the bench. I watched him dry off his face and followed him into the locker room.

"Sarah, you shouldn't be in here," Puck said while grabbing out his soap.

I shrugged, "I've seen you take a shower before, remember?"

I noticed a small smirk cross Puck's face as he walked past me towards the showers, "Yeah."

"I want to go back to that, when you didn't hate me," I whispered to his back, knowing it would get him to talk.

Puck stopped and turned towards me, "What?"

I sat on the bench, "You hate me and don't want to raise the baby with me, so you're saying you would screw up the baby so I would break up with you," I bit my lip and blinked really hard to make it look like I was going to cry.

"No, no Sarah," Puck came and knelt down in front of me, "That's not it at all."

"Then what is it?" I asked in frustration, letting a few of my fake tears fall.

"I just want what's best for you and the baby and don't want to mess anything up," Puck wiped the stray tears from my cheeks.

"But you won't! Why don't you understand that?" Ok, now some of the tears were real, but not all of them.

Puck groaned, "I don't know, it's just hard, ok? I barely have Beth, I don't want to lose this baby too."

I nodded, understanding what he said, "You don't hate me?"

Puck smiled, "Never have, never will."

I wrapped my arms around his neck. Even though I knew all along he didn't hate me, it was still nice to hear the words. "I love you."

"I love you too," Puck whispered, "Can I take a shower now?"

I giggled, "Sure."

Puck stood and turned around, "You can join me if you'd like," he said over his shoulder.

I laughed, "I don't know, maybe."

Puck smirked and nodded before pulling his shirt off.

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

I walked into the library as everyone else was leaving. I ran into Finn on his way out.

"Whoa there, watch where you're going," Finn smiled and directed me to his right.

I laughed, "I'll see you later."

Finn nodded and left, leaving me to see Puck with his back to me picking papers up on a table.

I went over to him and wrapped my arms around his waist, "What're you doing?"

Puck turned around, "Nothing."

He placed a soft kiss to my lips and I raised my eyebrows, "Really?"

Puck chuckled and turned back to finish putting the papers in his backpack, "Just trying to get Finn to join forces with me in the pool cleaning business."

I felt the smile fade from my face, "Pool cleaning business?"

Puck turned and nodded, "Yeah. Something wrong?"

"Um, yeah, I thought you were done with that," I said quietly.

"Babies cost a lot of money, something that I don't have, so I need to earn it," Puck shrugged.

"Wasn't pool cleaning just a front?" I asked softly, hearing the edge of jealousy in my voice.

"No, it really did start as a pool cleaning business, you know that," Puck told me, "Trust me, I'm done with that, I have you."

I nodded, "I still don't understand why you have to do it and why you need Finn's help."

"I need the money for us, and Finn can help with math and motors and stuff," Puck replied.

I crossed my arms, "Fine."

"There's one other thing too."

I looked up at Puck, "What's that?"

"L.A. has a lot of pools that I could clean and I'd be there during the summer months when it's really hot so I could earn a lot of money and I could send it back here for you after using some for rent money, but I would come back at the end of August so I could help you during school," Puck rushed out.

"Noah," I breathed and sat down, "You...can't."

"It's the only way," Puck said softly and sat next to me.

"No it's not," I whispered, "You can get a good job here."

"But that's all I know how to do! What kind of job am I supposed to get here?" Puck asked.

"You would go to college," I argued.

"How am I going to pay for college? With my pool money that I have to get," Puck stated.

"Please, you can't leave me," I begged.

"Sarah," Puck sighed and pulled me into his arms.

"Don't go," I whimpered.

"Let me think about it," I knew he was falling, he wouldn't leave me and this baby by ourselves.

"That's all I ask," I whispered.

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

I sighed on my way to my car. Puck had to stay after for a detention on account of telling off his math teacher because he claimed he never learned how to solve the problem. I heard music coming from the auditorium and automatically turned that way.

I pushed open the doors to see Blaine standing on the stage finishing up one of my favorite songs, Fighter.

He finished and I clapped while making my way down the stairs, "Very nice."

Blaine looked up at me, "What are you doing here?"

I shrugged, "Taking a detour. Puck has detention so I have to drive myself home."

"Oh," Blaine sat on the ground.

I sat next to Blaine. I actually knew exactly how he felt and I owe it to him to help him or listen at least to what he says because he's done so much for me these past couple weeks and deserves it, "What's up?"

Blaine shook his head, "You wouldn't understand."

I smirked, "Let me guess, you're over-the-top-brother is getting on your nerves because he's once again hogging the spotlight."

A smile flashed across his face, "How'd you know?"

"No offense, but you're brother's kind of annoying," Blaine and I both laughed, "Plus, I have Finn as an older brother."

"Finn shows you up?" Blaine asked.

"Not as much anymore, but when we were younger, yes," I told him softly.

"What'd he do?" Blaine muttered.

I shrugged, "It wasn't really great stuff, more of just stupid stuff that would get him more attention."

Blaine nodded, "Cooper used to do the same thing. He'd dance around the house and sing in the most annoying way, but get applause. I do it, and I get in trouble."

"Finn would fall off his bike because he would forget to brake and he'd practically get taken to the hospital. I'd fall out of a tree and get a band aid, some ice, and a 'Don't do that again,'" I whispered.

Blaine chuckled, but almost stopped suddenly, "It wasn't just him upstaging me, he really wasn't, and still isn't, there for me."

"Oh, you want a story about Finn not being there for me?" I asked.

Blaine raised his eyebrows, "Sure."

"When our dad died, Finn left, just left the house upon hearing the news, leaving me and my mom alone. Mom called Ms. Ruth who came over within a minute with Puck in tow. The first one to comfort me was Noah Puckerman, not my brother, no, his best friend," I told him.

"Wow," Blaine whispered.

"Puck took me to the river bank and that's where Brother Dearest was...just sitting there," I whispered. Sure, I forgave Finn for bailing that first day, especially because I left when I realized how hard it was going to be, but it still hurt to think about.

"You guys are so close though," Blaine said.

I turned to fully face him, "Because we worked through it and that's what you should do with Cooper. Trust me, it's not the funnest thing in the world, but it's worth it."

Blaine smiled and wrapped an arm around me, "You give pretty good advice."

I laughed, "Well, you deserve it."

Blaine's smile widened and he pulled me closer, "I wonder what it will be like after we talk."

I pulled away with a smile on my face, "It's a lot of fun."

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

(Sarah, Finn, Puck, All)

I got my first real six-string

Bought it at the five-and-dime

Played it 'til my fingers bled

It was the summer of '69

I smiled at Blaine and winked. He grinned back, understanding why I was having Puck and Finn sing this song with me.

Me and some guys from school

Had a band and we tried real hard

Jimmy quit and Jody got married

I shoulda known we'd never get far

Puck's voice sounded amazing right now. I had to try and not jump on him right there when he smiled at me.

Oh when I look back now

That summer seemed to last forever

And if I had the choice

Ya - I'd always wanna be there

Those were the best days of my life

It was the first time the three of us had sung a song together, and it sounded really good so far.

Ain't no use in complainin'

When you got a job to do

Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in

And that's when I met you yeah

Finn stood from the drums and instead grabbed a guitar before heading over to where Puck and I were standing in the middle of the room.

Standin' on your mama's porch

You told me that you'd wait forever

Oh and when you held my hand

I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life

Back in the summer of '69

Man we were killin' time

We were young and restless

We needed to unwind

I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, no

The three of us paused at the drops in the music, trying not to laugh at our faces or positions.

And now the times are changin'

Look at everything that's come and gone

Sometimes when I play that old six-string

I think about you, wonder what went wrong

I smiled at two of my favorite people in the whole world and let the memories wash over me that had occurred in the years since we had known each other.

Standin' on your mama's porch

You told me it would last forever

Oh and when you held my hand

I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life

Back in the summer of '69

Puck and Finn took off their guitars before high-fiving each other, then hugging me. Everyone was clapping and cheering for us.

Mr. Schue came up to us, "That was great you guys! It really seemed like you guys had spent the summer of '69 together!"

We laughed, "That's probably because we actually did, except it was the summer of 2008 and every one before," Finn told him.

Finn hugged me closer to him, "We were best friends," I added in.

"Were?" Puck asked.

I laughed, "We are best friends," I corrected with a grin towards Puck.

"Well, you guys definitely showed the way that you can use past experiences to enhance a performance. Great job!" Mr. Schue congratulated.

Everyone started filing out of the room, but Blaine stopped in front of me, "Awesome job, Sars."

I smiled, "Thanks Blaine, that means a lot coming from you."

"What if I told you that you were awesome?" Puck asked in my ear.

I laughed and turned to face him, "I would say, 'Thank you very much.'"

Puck's eyes widened, but he smiled, "So my opinion doesn't matter?"

I shook my head and exchanged a smile with Blaine, "It matters, just not as much as Blaine's."

Blaine laughed and Puck bit his lip to stop from smirking, "Fine, I'll have to prove my opinion to you."

"That makes no sense," Blaine observed.

Puck wrapped his arms around my waist and lifted me over his shoulder, "Come on, we're going home so I can make you say that I'm just as good as Blaine."

I laughed and hit his back, "Let me down."

"Nope," Puck said, popping his mouth on the p.

I was suddenly hit with a wave of nausea, "Noah! Put me down!"

Puck spun me around so he was carrying me bridal style, "How's this?"

I shook my head, "Noah," I choked out before turning in his arms and losing my lunch on the ground in front of us.

"Sarah!" Puck stopped walking, "I am so sorry."

Tears fell from my eyes and I put my head in his shoulder, "I'm sorry."

"No, it's not your fault," Puck started walking again, but I couldn't see where we were going. "It's alright," Puck whispered and rubbed m back, "Almost there."

I heard running footsteps behind us, "Puck! Wait!"

"Crap," Puck muttered and started walking faster, "Hold on Sarah, I'll get you cleaned up in no time."

"Puck! Let me help!" I recognized it as Blaine's voice.

A door was kicked open in front of us and Puck slowed down, "Here you go," he set me down on a bench, "I'll go get you a toothbrush and some mouthwash."

I looked around and realized we were in the boys' locker room. I sniffled and wiped my mouth on my arm.

"No, Sarah, don't do that," Blaine's voice came.

I turned to see him walking towards me, "What are you doing?"

"I heard you yell at Puck and came out to see him running away from, well, your lunch," Blaine sat next to me, "Here, I have some hand sanitizer you could use."

I waited for him to fish out a vanilla hand sanitizer from his bag and pass it to me, "Thanks," I muttered.

"It's no problem," Blaine smiled, "Anything for a friend."

Puck ran over to us, "Ok, I've got-Blaine," he stopped, "What are you doing here?"

"I came to help with Sarah," Blaine told him and stood up.

Puck gave him a look, but nodded all the same, "I found some mouthwash in Finn's locker and I grabbed one of Mike's spare toothbrushes; it's still in the wrapper, so you'll be safe."

I nodded and grabbed his hand. Blaine put a hand on my back to steady me. Puck glared at him over my head and put his other hand on my shoulder.

Finally, we made it to the sink where there were the toothbrush, toothpaste, and mouthwash sitting on the edge of it. I steadied myself on the sink and grabbed the toothbrush and toothpaste.

"Let me do that," Blaine grabbed them from me.

"No, I'm her boyfriend," Puck argued and ripped the toiletries from Blaine.

"Well, then you shouldn't have flipped her over in the first place!" Blaine yelled and took the stuff back from Puck.

"And I feel like crap for doing it, now stop so I can take care of Sarah!" Puck yelled back.

"Would you two stop?" I screamed.

Puck and Blaine froze in their positions of grabbing the toothbrush and toothpaste from the other.

"Down," I warned.

They set the stuff down in the sink and stared at me.

"Good, now shut up and go away."

"Sarah!"

"You need me!"

"No!" I shook my head, "Both of you need to control yourselves and understand that I can take care of myself."

Blaine nodded and started to walk away, but Puck stood in front of me, "Sarah," he whispered and put his hand over mine.

"Noah, just give me a second," I said slowly.

Reluctantly, Puck nodded and walked away. I took a deep breath before brushing my teeth. A minute later, I walked back to where Blaine and Puck probably were. I stopped beside some lockers to listen in to what they were saying because it seemed like something I should do right now.

"I don't like or want you helping her," Puck's voice muttered angrily.

"She's my friend and I know what's happening to her," Blaine argued.

"That doesn't give you the right to hover over her. She's not asking for it," Puck said quietly.

"Then why do you keep hovering?" Blaine asked.

"There's a line for hovering too much and not enough, I think I have the perfect balance being I am the baby's dad," Puck said through his teeth.

There was a silence and I was about to step forward so they could see me when Blaine started talking again, "I understand what you're saying, but I think that Sarah needs everyone around her right now."

"Rachel knows," Puck whispered.

"What does that have to do with this?" Blaine asked.

"I would prefer if right now Sarah was to talk about this with Rachel and not you," Puck told him.

"Why? I just said-"

"That Sarah needs everyone right now, I get that, but I don't want you taking over my job."

"No one can ever take the job of father away from you," I stepped out to see them.

"Oh my God," Puck muttered and turned around so I couldn't see his face.

"Sarah, how long were you listening?" Blaine slowly walked towards me.

"Enough to be able to tell you that you're both right," I said softly. Puck turned around and watched me talk, "Blaine, you're right by saying that I need everyone right now, because I do. Noah, I think I actually need you more than anyone else. So both of you, please, can we just all try and get along these next few weeks until everyone else finds out, then you can fight again if you have to."

Puck smirked and walked towards me, "Thank you," he wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my forehead.

Blaine put a hand on my arm, "Just give me a call whenever you need."

I watched him walk away and leaned into Puck's chest, "I need to ask you for two things right now."

"Shoot," Puck said softly.

"I need to go to the doctor and don't want to go alone," I admitted, "I thought about asking Rachel for, you know girl support, but then I figured that you should be there instead."

"Don't worry, I'll be there," Puck pulled away and smiled at me.

I smiled back, "Good, now for my second request. We have to go out, like soon."

Puck laughed, "Senior skip day's on Friday, we can go then."

I shook my head, "Nope, we have to do something just us."

His face fell slightly, "No senior skip day?"

"Oh," I shook my head, "No, I meant that we can go to that, but I want to do something else as well. Maybe Saturday or Sunday?"

Puck smiled, "Whatever you want."

I kissed him softly, "Can we go bowling?" I whispered in his ear.

Puck laughed, "Sure. How about I pick you up Saturday at 11 and we could get some lunch too?"

I laughed and hugged him closer, "I can't wait. Do you need my address?"

"I have friends in law enforcement that can look it up for me," Puck chuckled.

I laughed harder, "Alrighty, looking forward to it."

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

A/N: Sorry for how long this was and how all over the place it was, I hope you don't mind. Reading back, this was a little dramatic and maybe there were too many tears or close to tears. I think I'll just skip the senior skip day chapter, unless you guys want it, and just go right to Puck and Sarah's date. It's up to you guys, if you want me to write a senior skip day, I could. The song was Summer of '69 by Bryan Adams, I've always kinda wanted Glee to do it. And yeah, they're going bowling again, sorry, it's one of my favorite things to do. I hope you guys enjoyed! PLEASE REVIEW whether you did or didn't with questions, comments, concerns, or suggestions! All are welcome and accepted!

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

Ace5492 - Thanks!

FinchelFan728 - Thank you!

raem9898 - Haha, yeah, I was really happy it was Rachel though. Thanks! I'm glad you like it! And actually, one will be Hudson-Hummel and one will be Hudson-Puckerman, but they'll be close in age with just a few months between them.

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

Sneak Peak: Sarah's eyes were so bright and her smile was so wide that you wouldn't be able to guess she was pregnant or that she's cried herself to sleep practically every night the past week.

This is for the bowling date, but remember I could do senior skip day if you want me to.
