He'd been ranting for 3 hours. Rachel was getting scareder and scareder the more time past.

"Please calm down!" She sobbed from the couch.

"CALM DOWN? YOU WANT ME TO CALM THE FUCK DOWN? I'VE ALREADY GOT YOU TO DEAL WITH I DON'T NEED THIS SHIT AS WELL!" Puck screamed.

"If I'm so much to deal with them why don't i just go home Puck?" Rachel asked in a small hurt voice.

Beth came down the stairs at that point with a bag packed.

"THE FUCK? WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?" Puck shouted, grabbing Beth's arm.

"GET OFF!" Beth screeched pulling herself from her brothers grip.

"She wants to leave, just let her go," Rachel whispered.

Puck's face turned to stone as he took Rachel roughly by the shoulders and pulled her up from the couch, shaking her like a rag doll.

"S'MATTER WITH YOU?" He screamed in her face.

"GET THE FUCK OFF HER! DO YOU REALIZE HOW MUCH YOU'RE SCARING HER?" Beth shouted, pulling Rachel behind her, where the petite brunette broke down into a ball on the floor sobbing uncontrollably. "You think I don't know whats going on? You're such an asshat you're hurting her? Don't you think Finn's hurt her enough?"

"You don't know shit!" Puck growled walking over to Rachel and putting his hand on her back. She flinched violently and tried to scramble away from him.

"GET OFF! DON'T HURT ME!" Rachel screamed, her voice full of hurt and fear.

"Rae," Beth said soothingly, squatting down next to Rachel, "Me and Pete are getting out of this place. Come with us?" Beth asked running her fingers through Rachel's hair.

"B-but I need Noah," Rachel sobbed in a broken voice.

"Well he's not here now and Puck's hit me before Rae," Beth said. Rachel grasped Beth's hand and nodded. They made their way to the door only to be stopped by Puck.

"You're both leaving?" He asked.

"I'll keep her safe." Rachel whispered before disappearing out the door.

"You are such a douche, taking it out on her, hurting her. You're just like dad." Beth said before following Rachel.


Half an hour later Rachel Berry was in the back of a strangers car on her way to god knows where with only her sleepover back she'd picked up from Puck's truck. She couldn't't help the silent tears from falling.

He doesn't want you. He tried to hurt you and said he was better off without you. She kept telling herself.

Beth reached back and squeezed Rachel's hand.

"S'gunna be alright Rae," She whispered.


When Miriam got home to see her son sitting at the kitchen table with his head in his hands she knew something was really wrong.

"Noah honey?"

He looked up at her with tear filled eyes.

"Ma, Rachel and Beth ran away and I could of stopped them," He replied shakily.
