And now the continuation:

CHAPTER 39 - FIRST MEETING

.

"So when's the due date?" asked Quinn as everyone settled down.

"Finn has estimated the due date," said Rachel "When is it again, Finn?"

"Around the time of Nationals," replied Finn "She'll be free for Hemisphere's and World's."

"Woah," said Puck "Just woah. Are you able to even compete at Sectionals and Regionals?"

"Noah," said Quinn looking shocked at Puck

"It's okay, Quinn," replied Rachel "I don't know if I can sing yet, Noah. I can't get the confidence to belt out a note, but I'm trying to work on it."

"We've gone over this before, Noah," said Mercedes "We can't put pressure on Rachel, she'll sing when she's good and ready."

"And then I'll state it again," replied Puck "Everyone knows that with Rachel, we have a great chance of winning the Worlds. Without her we don't. We're right back in the chasing pack. How are we going to cope with a pregnant Rachel as well?"

"What's gotten up your nose?" asked Kurt

"Just keeping it real," replied Puck "And everyone's thinking it. We can just get by with Mercedes, Santana, Blaine, and Finn at their best, but with Rachel among those four we're unbeatable."

"That's enough Mr Puckerman," said Michael "This is suppose to be a celebration for Mr and Mrs Hudson. We don't need your negativity here."

"I second that," said Will

"I'm sorry," said Rachel starting to sniffle "I'm sorry to be a burden,"

Quinn looked over at Finn, who had deadly look on his face. She grabbed Puck's arm.

"I think it's time for a time out,"

"But..." said Puck

"Let's go," snarled Quinn "NOW!"

Finn walked over to Rachel, who was already being consoled by Mercedes

"You're not a burden," said Finn "Some idiots don't even know what they're talking about."

"But I can't sing," sobbed Rachel

"In time you will," replied Mercedes

"But we don't have time," said Rachel with tears streaming down her face "I'm wasting everyone's time."

"Look at me, Rachel," said Finn looking at Rachel with his loving eyes

Rachel looked up at Finn.

"You are not a burden, you are not wasting everyone's time, you are here for a reason, at the moment it's to help with advice, which you have been doing over the last few weeks. Which of course is your specialty, which Mr Schue has asked you to be another set of eyes and ears for him.

"I believe when you are ready, you will get your voice back, and there will be no stopping you, and then everyone will be complaining that you are getting all the solos again, and it's you can't even win.

"Think of it like this. Everyone else needs to step up, you're our prize batter being kept for the later innings, so we can count on you to get us the wins. Until then, you just need to rest up, and it's up us to get the early hits.

"So please stop worrying Rachel. I believe in you. I believe that you will come back strong, I believe when you are ready you will know it. Do you hear me, Rach?"

"Yes," said Rachel quietly

"Good girl, I need you to stop worrying okay! For the sake of our baby."

"Okay,"

Finn gave Rachel a massive hug, and a kiss. Will patted Finn on his back. Finn gently gave Rachel to Mercedes who gave her a hug. Finn headed for the door at a fast pace. Michael decided to follow.

.

Quinn and Puck were just outside the Choir Room, in the hallway.

"Why Noah?" asked Quinn

"I'm trying to say what everyone else is thinking," said Puck

"That's just it," replied Quinn "We think it, we don't say it."

Suddenly Finn came storming out of the Choir Room, towards Puck. Quinn put herself between Puck and Finn.

"I need you to get it through your thick head, Puckerman," snarled Finn "Stop making my wife a scapegoat for your petty insecurities."

"I'm sorry Finn," replied Puck "But we need her."

"I KNOW WE NEED HER!" yelled Finn "Don't you think I know that. I know our chances are 50/50 at best without her. But she needs to have a chance to get her confidence back in her own time."

"I realize that," said Puck

"No, no you don't," said Finn "She now vulnerable with MY baby. You know what's that like having had two kids now."

"Geez Finn," whispered Quinn "That's a low blow, even for you."

"Sorry," said Finn to Quinn "But he needs to realize what he's saying."

"I'll go apologize to Rachel," replied Puck

"No you will not, you'll stay away from her for a few hours."

Puck looked at Finn "Fine."

"No more upsetting her please,"

"I heard you the first time, that's why I said fine."

Finn stood aside. Quinn looked at him, then stood aside too. Puck walked past Finn and continued on towards the Choir Room again. Michael was waiting for him by the door.

"Mr Puckerman, why do you have to always stir things up around here?"

"I'm sorry," said Puck "It just comes out. I'm trying to work on it."

"Make sure you continue to work on it," replied Michael "We're getting down to the important time where we need to the team to be at one, with each other."

"I said I'm sorry," replied Puck "I'll try to think before I speak next time."

"Make sure that you do."

"Are we done?"

"Yes."

Michael stood aside. Puck shook his head, and went to head into the Choir Room when Tina walked out.

"A word please, Noah!"

"Not you too," said Puck frustrated "I said I'm sorry."

"No, this isn't about Berry."

"You mean Hudson," smiled Puck

"Whatever," replied Tina

Tina walked over to the other side of the corridor, and Puck followed. Finn and Michael walked back into the Choir Room. Quinn looked at Tina, and Puck and decided to join them.

"Oh by all means, Fabray, be a part of this conversation," said Tina sarcastically

"I don't trust you with my boyfriend," replied Quinn "Him I trust, you I don't,"

"Geez Fabray all I wanted Puck for was to ask him if he wanted to meet Bobby, but I guess I don't need to now."

"Wait," said Puck giving a glare to Quinn ?"She will back down, won't you Quinn?"

Quinn looked at Puck and nodded. Tina looked back at Puck.

"Very well. He'll be here this afternoon for a few hours, you can meet him then if you want."

"Thank you!" smiled Puck

"Why?" asked Quinn

"Why, what?" asked Tina back

"Why have you decided now to let Noah, see him when we've just found out in the last hour or so, and not the last few weeks?"

"Quinn," said Puck "Stop asking questions that don't necessarily concern you."

"You concern me," said Quinn looking at Puck "I only want the best for you. I love you, and I'm glad to have you back in my life, when every single time I came back here over the last few years, it broke my heart to see you still drinking."

"I thought you said you waited and waited for me to stop drinking, and I never did, so you walked away for good."

"I did come back to see if you had stopped drinking for the first few years, but you never did, so I gave up after I came back the 3rd and final time. But I do have your best interests at heart."

"Are you two finished?" asked Tina frustrated "This isn't the Fabray and Puckerman show, I can easily withdraw the offer."

"You can't use my son as leverage every time you don't see eye to eye with me, or you're frustrated that you can't get your own way," replied Puck "It's not fair either way."

"Point taken," said Tina through her teeth

"Are you three going to be joining us any time soon?" asked Michael from the doorway of the Choir Room

"Coming," said Tina to Michael, then turned back to Puck "This afternoon, on our break you can come with me to meet Bobby."

"Can Quinn come?" asked Puck "It's important to me that she's with me."

"I don't have to," replied Quinn "It's vital that you have that very first meeting."

"Yes Fabray, you can come," said Tina "And the answer to your question is, the baby news from Rach, and Finn, plus your reaction when seeing the photo of Bobby. It calmed you down. So Bobby was always coming for a visit, I thought you may want to join in. Please tell no one else for now."

"Okay," said both Puck and Quinn together

Tina, Quinn, and Puck, returned to the Choir Room where they rejoined everyone in watching Mercedes sing her solo, and then they all did their 1st group song.

.

They then headed to the Dance Stud9io where they spent an hour brushing up on the choreography for the first group song, before heading to Lunch, and then an hour of Counseling. Then it was the 3 hours of Free Time.

LIMA PARK AND RECREATION DIVISION

.

Tina, Puck, and Quinn turned up at the park with their Minders, but they told their minders to hold back. They then walked over to a picnic table and sat down and waited.

.

10 minutes later, Puck and Quinn were sitting by themselves on the grass a wee bit away from the picnic table and Tina was on her phone looking at texts from her work.

"Mum, Mum," came a voice

Tina looked up to see her son, Bobby, come running up, she smiled and held out her arms. It had been over a month since she saw him last in person.

"Bobby," smiled Tina

Bobby ran into Tina's arms, she gave him a big hug.

"Hi Mum,"

"Hi Bobby,"

"I missed you Mum,"

"I missed you too Bobby."

Puck and Quinn stood up from where they had been sitting. They still stood back.

"How's school?" asked Tina

"Boring," replied Bobby "When are you coming home?"

"It could still be a year away, son. Don't worry you'll get to spend a few days here every so often,"

Bobby's God Mother Sara-Jane McKempish walked up as Tina and Bobby were still hugging.

"Hi Sara-Jane," smiled Tina

"Hi Tina," smiled Sara-Jane back "He's missed you."

"I've missed him," said Tina

"So when can I stay a few days with you, Mum?"

"I have to speak to a few people, and organize it," smiled Tina

"So I have to go home today?"

"Yes son you do," replied Tina "I told you today was just a couple of hours. I'm hoping you can stay in a week or so."

"Okay," said Bobby

Tina and Bobby finished hugging

"Bobby, I want you to meet someone."

"Okay," said Bobby

Tina stepped aside, which made Puck come into view.

Bobby and Puck both looked at one another. Puck smiled.

"Hi Bobby," said Puck

"Hi," said Bobby "Mum!"

"Bobby, this is Noah Puckerman."

"He looks like me."

"More like you look like him," smiled Tina

"Does that mean he's..."

"That's right," replied Tina "He's your father."

"Wow," said Bobby looking at Puck "Hi... Dad."

Puck smiled and opened his arms, Bobby was hesitant at first, and then ran towards Puck, and they hugged.

"If it means anything," said Puck "I first heard about you this morning."

"That does mean something," replied Bobby "Mum was keeping me a secret from you."

"You're a smart boy," laughed Puck "You have your mother's brains. Bobby. I want you to meet someone. This is Quinn."

Quinn smiled at Bobby "Hi Bobby."

"Quinn's a cool name," smiled Bobby

"Thank you," replied Quinn

"Are you Dad's girlfriend?"

"Yes I am," replied Quinn

"Cool."

.

.

For the next 2 hours, Puck, Quinn, Tina, Bobby, and Sara-Jane sat down and started talking. Puck just got on with trying to know his son.
