Callie walks through the lunch room and it seems as if everyone stops talking as soon as she walks through the double doors. It seems as if everyone is staring at her or pointing at her.

She grabs a salad and some juice. Looking at the faces in the cafeteria, she cant find one single friendly face in the crowd, she takes her lunch outside.

Tina looks at the girl with sadness in her eyes. No one is making an effort to be even nice to the pregnant teen.

Tina looks at Mike and tells him she will meet him after her next class. She picks up her book bag, kisses a confused Mike and starts out the same door as Callie.

Following Callie to the bleachers, watches as she sits alone.

Tina's POV

I wanted to tell Callie to sit with us at the Glee table until I saw the looks from the rest of the club. It was like she had the plague. Hell she is only pregnant, not contagious.

I kept thinking what if it was me? How would I react? How would I handle the hurt? How would my friends react?

I know what she did was rather stupid, but when we hurt we all do stupid things.

I listened to everyone talk about her during my morning classes like she was freak. I know what that feels like, to be an outcast.

What really pisses me off is the fact that no one has asked her if she was okay. You know she is human, she is hurting and she needs….a friend..

Well here goes nothing.

Tina walks up to where Callie is sitting and sits down.

"Hey, how are you doing? My name is Tina."

She holds her hand out as she sets down close to Callie.

"Are you sure you want to be seen with me?"

Callie looks at the hand as if it is a foreign object. She wonders if this a joke of some kind, maybe a way to say something else everyone can talk about.

"Yeah, I thought you might need a friend right now. I know what it is like to be an outcast, and I know it hurts like hell."

Tina watches as Callie finally takes her hand. She notices the mistrust in Callie's eyes and she really cant blame her.

"But at least you aren't pregnant and an outcast."

Callie's voice has very little humor in it.

"Oh god no, my parents would send me to live with my great grandmother in the "old country". At least that has been their threat since my first boyfriend."

Tina smiles at the memory of her folks flipping out when she told them she had a boyfriend.

"My Dad has been pretty cool about it so far. He told me he would support whatever I decide to do about the baby."

Callie's hand goes to the small bump and rests there.

"Wow that's awesome. I'm glad for you."

Tina smiles at her knowing at least she wasn't catching grief at home.

"So why did you really follow me out here?"

Callie looks her straight in the eyes looking for any hint of a lie.

"Like I said, you need a friend. And in all honesty after I heard what happened I needed to make sure you were okay."

Tina's eyes hold only truth for Callie.

"Thank you."

Callie whispers as the tears start to trickle down her pale cheeks.

Tina reaches out for her hand and holds it.

"Sorry about that, all the information I have read on the internet says that pregnant women are emotional idiots."

Callie squeezes Tina's hand back. She wipes the tears away with her free hand. It felt so good for someone to touch her without a look of pity in their eyes.

"So can I ask what you are going to do about the baby?"

"I am going to keep him. I don't think I could give up a part of me no matter how he was made."

"So you think it's a he?"

"Yeah. My dad wants it to be a boy, a little buddy for him to take fishing and to teach him guy things."

She actually laughs as she remembers her Dad talking to her about the baby. He actually smiled at the thought of having a "little buddy".

"You've got to have an amazing Dad. So you haven't been to the doctor yet?"

"No, I have an appointment for tomorrow."

"Do you have a cell phone?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Give it here."

Callie hands Tina her phone and watches as she inputs her number with the name Tee.

Tina then calls her own cell so that she has Callie's number.

"Call me and let me know what the doctor says, okay?"

"Sure, I guess I can do that. I think the only thing he can really tell me right now is my due date and if I am gaining too much weight."

They heard the warning bell ring for the next class.

"Tina would it be okay if I called you just to talk?"

"Most definitely, I am a good listener. At least I think so, but if you ask Mike he would tell you I don't shut up."

"Mike?"

"The other Asian in Glee. Mike Chang. He is my boyfriend."

"The other Asian? Okay, I must be missing something."

"Well Mr. Shue couldn't remember our names and Puck gave us the nicknames."

Tina watched Callie's eyes darken at Puck's name.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have said his name."

"No it's okay. I am getting used to hearing it. I have heard his name all morning, along with mine, pregnant and crazy."

"I don't know how I would feel, but I do think that you are a strong person Callie. You stayed at school today and you made a new friend."

Tina really smiles at her new friend.

"I'm glad I have a new friend, thanks Tina."

Both girls walk back towards the school to their next classes.

The rest of the day is more of the same for Callie. The looks and the whispers. She just kept her eyes straight ahead, ignoring everyone around her.

Everything was bearable until her last class, Senior Literature.

She sat in a desk to the side by the windows. It had been her saving grace all day, to sit by the window. It gave her an opportunity to look outside and not look at the rest of the class.

She was staring out the window when she heard the rest of the students gasp in unison, so she turned around to look at what was going on.

Noah Puckerman had walked in to the classroom and the only free desk was beside her. He was just standing there looking at her and then at the empty desk.

Mrs. Dunbar walked in and told Puck to find an empty desk to sit in. She didn't even have to tell the class to be quiet, you could of heard a pin drop.

Everyone sees the bandage on Puck's hand. Assumptions are made as to who he beat up or what he beat up.

Callie sees the white bandage covering his knuckles on his right hand, but there isn't anything she can do for him. She looks back out the window.

Puck remembers what Coach Sylvester told him about letting anyone sense fear and walks to the empty seat and sits down.

Mrs. Dunbar starts handing out the text books with a syllabus of each reading assignment. She then announces that the students will be paired up for discussion/debate of each assignment.

If you sit in row one your partner would be the person to the right of you and so down the line. And you kept the same partner all semester.

The whole room turns and stares at Puck and Callie, they start whispering and texting on their phones.

Puck shows no emotion when Mrs. Dunbar makes her announcement about partnering up. He just stares straight ahead.

Callie keeps looking out the window, wishing she could open it and escape.

The bell finally rings and everyone runs out the door to gossip with their friends.

Callie walked by Puck as she was leaving, "Don't worry, I will change classes tomorrow." She doesn't even stop to look at him or hear his answer.
