Finns POV
"Hey Man, open the door" I said knocking on the small door into pucks room. I knew I could relate in some way to him, so I figured I would try to get him to talk. I felt bad , although I hadn't known Pucks dad long and Puck didn't see him often it was still his father.
Slowly the door was unlocked and it opened to Puck walking back to sit on his bed.
"Look, I don't want to talk. Okay?" Puck said picking up his xbox controller.
"Puck, I know you don't Want to talk, but its probably the best. Maybe you could just listen….and put down the controller." I said turning off the t.v.
"Fine, I listen" He said pretending not to care but you could really tell he was fighting back anger.
"I know we have completely different situations but my dad is gone too. I understand that I didn't get to know my dad like you did yours but I can help you in the aspect of losing a parent and feeling like you didn't get to know him" Just as I was staring he opened his mouth. I didn't think it would be this easy to get him talking
"Finn, I get where your coming from but its different with me. Im ashamed of who my father was. Im not upset hes gone as much as im scared I would ever turn out like him. Yes im upset hes gone because he never gave my family a chance. But I don't want to grow up to be like him. I don't want to grow up and leave my wife and kids, I don't want to do drugs or kill myself." He took a deep breath and continued
"I feel like if he would have stoke around and got to know us he would have stayed. I never thought he thought so little of our family to just give away his life without saying goodbye." He said
"Puck, I get it" I said reassuring him , he stood up quickly and fisted his hands and yelled out "NO , you don't!"
"You don't get it, its my fault he left! This is ALL my fault!" He yelled loudly
"Calm down" I said patting him on the back and Rachel and Quinn quickly Ran in at the loudness in his voice. Quinn went straight to him and held his hand
"No, its my fault!" He said angry
"No, Its not" Rachel said
"The night he left he was drunk, him and mom were fighting really bad and I ran in to break it up and I punched him on accident and he took me to my room and screamed at me for hours, I was being a smart ass and not listening I didn't care I was just so angry at him for hurting mom. It just got to out of control. That night while everyone was asleep he left, no one knew. He didn't take anything" He said and we all were in tears by then. "The last thing I said to him was 'I hate you' , how will I ever forgive myself."
"Puck , that's not your fault!" Quinn said
"Your dad was an alcoholic" Rachel Said "Don't blame yourself, it was his choice to leave"
"Hey, do you guys mind leaving, I just need some time" Puck said and we all three stood up
"call me later" Finn said walking out
"Ill bring you dinner tonight" Quinn said kissing him and walking leaving Rachel in there.
"Puck, I hope you feel better. If you need to talk just come over please, my door is always open and im here to help you. Remember that my father's love you and will always be there for you too." I said looking into his eyes with my hands in his , I kissed his forehead and walked out.
Rachel's POV
"That's so sad" I said walking with Quinn and Finn over to my house.
"I know I feel horrible, I don't think he'll be at school tomorrow but I think Rachel and I have to go back or else well get kicked out" Finn said
"Yeah, it's a new week. I hope hes going to be okay though" Quinn said
"Should we tell the glee club?" I asked
"Um, I don't know actually ill talk to him" Quinn said "Rachel am I staying here this week? I know our parents are leaving tonight!"
"Yeah, you can stay here, I better get to all this makeup work you brought home" I said grabbing the pile of missed work.
"Ill Leave you to girls to that" Finn said grabbing his things "I better get home to Mom"
"Agh, that's your excuse to get out of homework!" I said sitting down at the table
"Yes" He said kissing my cheek i didn't even look up at him "Hey look at me" he said and I was studying "Finn , what go home im studying"
"I love you" he said looking in my eyes and leaving
"I love you too" I called out after him
"Gosh, you to act like a married couple, what comes next the kids or the cats?" Quinn joked.
"Ha-Ha,, so funny!" I joked "so do you think ill marry finn?" I asked smiling looking at my history homework below me.
"Rach, what do you think?" She said smirking.
"Ah, when I think about it, it makes me all giddy! I hope he asks me to marry him!" I said clapping my hands
"Rachel…..calm down your 18…!" Quinn said laughing
"I know, not now of course. Now Focus!" I said tapping her paper.
Soon after about 5 hours of makeup work and cramming for test the next week, with an added hour bonus of Quinn and I goofing off I was finally getting settled into my bed. Finn had been gone for about an 5 hours but I missed him, I wont be a clingy girlfriend and call him seeing as if I just spent the week with him but a goodnight text wont be to needy right?
"Goodnight Babe, I love you xoxo"-R
I hit sent as fast as my hand could then just then someone was knocking on my door, Come in I said quietly sitting up.
"Hey Rach, I know its sort of late but im going to walk over to Pucks to check in on him" Quinn said walking in.
"Alright, be back by 10 missy" I said smiling and laying back down she walked out and shut the door behind her.
Quinns POV
I might not know exactly how Puck is feeling but I can still try to help him through this tough time. I mean I haven't seen my dad in 2 years, so I can sort of relate.
I walked down to the 5th house after Rachels in the cold and knocked quietly on the door. Pucks mom came and welcomed me in, she said he was in his room so I headed for the stairs. His mom stopped me and said "You can try to talk to him but hes not even talking to us so don't get offended"
"Alright, ,ill try" I answered starting forward again.
I knocked once and walked in, I wasn't even sure if he was awake. I walked in and he was sitting on his bed, It looked like he was doing some history work. Puck never studied, he didn't even look up when I greeted him.
"Puck, I know your hurting and i-" I said till he looked up.
"Quinn, I don't need help, just leave me alone" he answered back sharply I could feel the hurt in his voice.
"Im Here to see if you want to talk about it" I answered defensive.
"I don't want to talk about it, okay? Would you leave me alone" He replied in a raised voice.
"I understand your mad, but don't talk about your angry on your girlfriend? Im only here to help!" I yelled back.
"Quinn" He said calmly "I don't know if I can deal with you right now"
"What is that supposed to mean!" I asked angry
"I think we need to breakup." Then it hit me. I cried. I stood there crying.
"No! Puck your just upset, I can help, we can talk" I rambled.
"Quinn, Just go. I want to be alone" I flew down his stairs and ran back to Rachels crying slamming her door shut and quickly running to the quest room falling to the bed, crying.
"Quinn…?" Rachel said quietly as she walked in and placed a hand on my back.
"Quinn, whats wrong?" She asked worried
"He, He, He broke up with me!" I stuttered out looking up at her and hugging her.
"Oh Quinn im sure he didn't mean it, baby he's just hurt and needs time, he'll come around" she said rubbing my back and wiping my tears
I sat up and regained myself "Well maybe I won't be there when he's ready!"
"Okay, well than that's your choice, here why don't you lay down and just get some rest, its been a very long day for both of us." She said tucking me in turning off the light and leaving me to cry myself asleep.
I know Puck is probably just over reacting and hurt right now, he'll realize that he needs me, or I hope he will. I cant say I'm going to try to win him back though, he needs to fight for what he wants, and if im not what he wants than why was I in the relationship. I just need distractions, not boys. Maybe a hobby. Maybe I can go on a vacation, that's it ill get Rachel and I to go on a vacation somewhere nice. I bet if I begged my mom she'll give me money, or maybe I could use my savings account, I've been saving up for something since I was 5 I wasn't sure what but this could totally be worth all the money. A trip out of the country somewhere ive never been and always wanted to go. A Final trip as a high schooler, an early graduation present, maybe? Like Mine or Rachel's dad would ever go for it though. Two girls in a big city out of COUNTRY, but maybe I could convince Finn to go, then I wouldn't have Rachel.
Agh, all this thinking is to much, but it got my mind of Puck ill tell Rachel about my plans tomorrow, but for now I just need rest.
Rachel's POV
The morning came faster than I hoped, I felt bad for Quinn and just hoped she'd be strong today. It seems like just last week everything was fine.
I knocked on her door to make sure she was up and walked into her curling her hair while singing.
"Uhm, Quinn. Good morning, you look good" I said
"Thanks, I've decided that although my heart is in two I would start the week off on a good foot and remain positive!" She said smiling into the mirror.
"Alright well we should go soon" I said handing her some coffee and heading for the door.
We walked into school, it seemed different. Although I had been MIA for a week im sure I was just not to used to be back in a high school. I already was missing my warm bed, I knew I wouldn't be seeing Finn for the week because everyday he had football after and before school, he would miss glee because of his studying, and excessive football practices. It wasn't the best timing with sectionals coming in the next 2 months but I wasn't worried. I was more upset about the lack of contact. It seemed like texting and the 5 minutes in between class would be all we would see of each other this week.
I spotted Finn and walked down the hallway to hug him, although he was all sweaty and still in workout clothes from his early practice it was so sexy.
"Hey Babe, I cant talk now but text me tonight" Love you he called out kissing my cheek and walking towards the locker rooms.
I turned my head and watched him leave.
Hopefully the week wouldn't drag along.
