AN: Finally an update. I apologize for the delay and give a heads up that Im not sure when I will update again. Said Family member mentioned in the last chapter passed away Easter Sunday. I had been with family and have recently come back to my stories.
"Dude go home, you are drunk and just going to cause problems." Mike tried reasoning with the taller teen.
"This is a party for the team right? Well I'm part of the team and the glee club so I can be here." Finn slurred out.
Sighing Rae whispered in Quinn's ear to go get Santana as she removed her vest. Rae walked over to where the boys were arguing as she unbuttoned her cuffs and a few buttons on her shirt.
"What's the problem here?"
"He's drunk Rae." Mike answered
"You're right I am. And I brought some friends with me. I'm coming in one way or another." Finn slurred out trying to push his way past the three friends.
"Friends?" Rae questioned in amusement , pushing Finn back out the door as she spies Karofsky and Azimio out by the vehicles. "Some friends you got there. They slushied Becky Jackson for no reason and both got their ass's handed to them by a girl. Nobody will be seen with them in McKinley anymore after word got around. I thought you were better than that Finn."
Better than what?" Finn slurred as he tried to narrow his gaze at Rae.
"Being a Lima Loser. You keep hanging around those two and that's what you are going to be."
"It's better then being a freak."
"Yeah well this freak landed the Head Cheerleader." Rae smirked at the taller boy.
Finn swung and missed, Rae yelled out for the boys to move him outside as she wasn't going to have the idiot fuck up her house.
"Last chance to walk away Finn because if you swing at me again I will knock your ass out in front of all these people."
"Fuck you." Finn screamed as he charged.
Sighing Rae centred herself, and kicked out Finns legs once he got close enough. A quick glance showed Rae that Mike and Noah along with the rest of the basketball team were keeping Azimio and Karofsky from joining in. She watched as Finn struggled to get to his feet.
"Just stay down Finn. I don't want to do this, I don't want to hurt you."
The taller boy snarled as he tried to charge her again and Rae side stepped him once again and watched as he did a face plant in the front lawn. She felt sorry for the taller boy. She really didn't want to hurt him like she had with Karofsky and Azimio but if he forced her to defend herself she would.
"Damn it Finn, just walk away." Rae muttered to herself as the taller boy once again got to his feet. He was bleeding from a small cut on his face due to his face plant. She watched as he steadied himself instead of charging this time. Looking behind him Rae saw the cops pull up, seems the neighbours called them. Finn clenched his fists as he began to walk towards her slowly he waited half a beat before swinging at Rae again. This time Rae stepped into his reach and gave him a shot to his solar plexus before following up with an uppercut that knocked the taller boy out when he had doubled over. Rae was shaking her hand out as the police got out of their vehicles.
"All right break it up. Everyone go home." The younger of the two officers yelled out.
"Rae are you ok?" Quinn asked as she ran over to the tiny guard.
"I'm fine baby. Can you go grab the paperwork that my fathers mailed? The ones declaring my emancipation and ownership of the house. Please." At Quinns nod Rae gives her a kiss. "Thank you."
Sighing she turns her attention to the older officer making his way over to her as people began to trickle out of her house.
"Good evening gentleman, or rather good morning. How can I help you?"
"We were called in regards to a disturbance and noise complaint at this address. Are your parents home?"
"No sir. My fathers no longer live here. This is my home. Excuse me a moment please" Rae answered her cell that had began to ring.
"Yes James, thank you for arranging everything so quickly. Just have them take everyone home and send me the bill oh and tell the drivers to let their passengers know that they can come get their keys in the morning."
"Sorry officer. I had all drivers put their keys in a lock box and had intended all to stay the night but given the current circumstances I thought it best that they had a safe way home. Im sorry for the disturbance but Mr. Hudson showed up on my doorstep clearly intoxicated and when he was refused entrance he attempted to pick a fight. I moved it outside so no one else would get hurt as he was acting belligerent. We have been at odds as I am currently dating his ex girlfriend and he hasn't taken it well."
The officer that Rae had failed to ask his name just stared at her for a few minutes, as if weighing the truth of her words. Rae looked over to see his partner speaking with Mike and Noah. Santana and Brittany were standing in the doorway helping the basketball team and their dates get their house keys before they left in their respective safe rides home. Quinn came out a moment later with the requested paperwork and handed it to Rae.
"I asked my girlfriend to get these documents to show that I am legally emancipated and that the ownership of this house is in fact in my name. I apologize again for the disturbance and realize that you were called once the altercation began to get physical out in the front lawn. My house is sound proof. All I wanted was a night to celebrate the championship win with my teammates and close friends."
The officer looked over the documents and radioed in for a run on Rae's background. He walked over to where his partner had begun to walk towards him and Rae as he had finished with Mike and Noah's statements.
"According to Mr. Chang and Puckerman, Mr. Hudson showed up 'drunk as a skunk' and attempted to pick a fight and things were moved outside to avoid injury to any other additional parties. Seems Mr Hudson did not take well to his ex girlfriend dating his enemy Ms Berry."
"Did they say anything else?"
"Just that it was self defense and that he had been given plenty of chances to walk away before Ms Berry knocked him out effectively ending the fight."
The older of the two watched as a tall blonde came out and handed Rae a bag of peas to put on her hand and one to place on Hudson's face where a nasty bruise and a knot was forming from catching the uppercut. Quinn was currently fussing over her girlfriends hand worrying that their could be broken bones as the hand had swollen near twice its normal size. The other officers that had arrived and been taking statements from other party goers as well, came over and advised that the statements provided corroborated the two boys statements that Hudson started the fight and Berry had been defending herself. His radio crackled and he finally received the information that the documents were legit and that Berry had no previous priors. Making his way back over to where Rae was standing with Quinn watching as Hudson began to stir.
"Here you are Ms. Berry," Began as he handed back Rae her paperwork. "Everything checks out and the witnesses all state that Mr. Hudson here started the fight. Do you wish to press charges?"
"No. I think him being knocked out by a girl in front of his teammates is punishment enough. Either take him home to his mother or let him sleep it off in the drunk tank. either way I don't care what happens as long as he is off my property."
"Fair enough. Will you let me take you to the hospital to get your hand looked at? It looks like you may have broken something or chipped a knuckle at the very least ." After a very pointed glare from Quinn, Rae accepted.
After locking her room to ensure everyone else stayed out and if Santana tried to pick the lock, she would get a nasty shock, petty of Rae but satisfying as Santana needed to learn to respect Rae's space and keep out of it when the point guard wasn't home, She and Quinn had left with the officers and were currently sitting in the examination room at the hospital.
