Arrangements: Season Episode 18 Born This Way

"Barbra was one in a million," the doctor's words were still ringing in her ears. That's what she had been thinking about ever since Dakota Stanley had no-so-subtly pointed out her hereditary defect.

Rachel heard the front door slam shut and quickly took down all the pictures of noses from her dresser mirror. She quickly shoved them all in her dresser drawer just in time for her brother to peek his head in her room.

"Hey Rach- What happened to your nose?"

"I- uh, had an accident during rehearsal."

"YOU had an accident during a choreographed number?"

"Well, Finn actually accidentally hit me while attempting some new dance number."

"Ugh, why are you still hung up on him! He treats you like crap and now he hits you in the face," he spit out bitterly earning him a glare from Rachel.

"It was an accident," she defended and Blaine rolled his eyes but dropped it, because the two would never agree about the Finn situation.

Blaine was walking through the hallways of McKinley- he'd gotten lost while looking for the bathroom. He'd finally found it and as he was coming back into the hallway, Noah Puckerman came out of the girl's room.

"Anderson," his voice stopped Blaine. "Walk with me," and he steared Blaine to walk down the hallway with him.

"We're not supposed to be talking outside. I'm supposed to go sing on-"

"Yeah yeah, this'll take 5 minutes tops. And the first rule isn't being broken. We have to do something about Rachel. I convinced her to give me an hour- I have to come up with something to change her mind-"

"Wait- what are you talking about?"

"You don't know?" Puck looked honestly shocked at that.

"Know what?" Blaine demanded.

"Fuck," Puck ran a hand through his mowhawk. "So Finessa broke Rachel's nose, right? And then she went to that tratiorous Jew doctor who told her that she should get a nose job."

"Fuck!"

"Exactly, and I have to come up with something to convince her not to do it," Puck said.

"Has she forgotten about Barbra-?"

"No, she said that she's one in a million and she doesn't think she could do it-"

"That's ridiculous!"

"Damn straight," Puck agreed. "What're we going to do?"

"She can't know I'm involved and she wouldn't listen to me anyway," he lamented then remembered where he was supposed to be. "Where's the outside cafeteria?"

"Here," Puck steered them down the side hallway. "But focus, dude, what are we going to do about Rachel?"

"She needs a Barbravention," he decided. "I'll talk to Kurt about it. Just take Rachel to the upper level of the Lima Mall. We'll handle the rest."

A/n: More of my favourite made-up friendship: PuckxBlaine! Woot! No, it's not made up, it's canon, right? I think we all want it to be anyways.

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel... 4 more chapters left!
