Beginning Our Life
Last Time: Rachel threw a baby shower for Sarah while Finn threw Puck a dad shower. Mr. Schue made sure that Puck understands that him and Sarah aren't alone. And that's what you missed on Beginning Our Life.
Disclaimer: I don't own Glee or any songs that I may put in here.
Grease
Finn's Point of View
I quickly jumped out of the car and ran in the front door.
"Finn Christopher Hudson!" Sarah screamed out her car window as she drove up the driveway.
I slammed the door shut and leaned against it.
"What's going on?" Puck walked over with a sleeping Sammie in his arms and a burp rag covered in spit up on his shoulder.
I would have laughed if I wasn't so scared of Sarah, "She's not happy with me. Besides that, what are you doing?"
"Practicing," Puck groaned.
"For what?" I asked.
He sighed, "Being a dad. Now tell me, what did you do?"
"Finn!" Sarah pounded against the door, "I'm going to kill you!"
Puck raised his eyebrows and stepped forward, "Let her in."
I scoffed, "No way."
Puck shoved me away. The only reason I didn't fight back was because of my sister in his arms. He swung open the door only for no one to be there.
"Creepy," he whispered and looked around outside.
I grabbed the back of his shirt and tugged him back inside, "If Mom catches you with Sammie outside, she'll kill you."
Puck chuckled, "Then I won't be the only one dying today."
I rolled my eyes, "Hilarious."
"Finn!"
I jumped before cowering behind Puck.
Sarah marched from the back door, "I hate you. I hope you know that."
"What is going on?" Puck asked.
"Him," Sarah shakily pointed a finger at me, "I hate him."
"Sarah, come on," Puck reached forward, "You don't hate him."
"What's my favorite musical?" Sarah asked him, "What is it?"
"Grease," Puck automatically answered, "Why?"
"He made that the school musical! Finn made my favorite musical the school play and I can't even participate!" Sarah cried, "Finn, you can't do this to me!"
"I'm sorry, Sars, it's not my fault that-" I started.
Anger flashed across Sarah's face as she lunged forward. Puck jumped to the side, shaking Sammie prompting her to wake up and scream. Sarah started hitting me as hard as she could.
"Not your fault! You came up with the stupid idea!" Sarah yelled.
Mom ran into the room, "What's going on?"
"Finn ruined my life!" Sarah screamed.
Mom took the crying Sammie from Puck along with the burp rag, "Help him."
Puck grabbed Sarah around the waist and lifted her away from me, "Stop, Sars, stop. He didn't ruin your life."
"Sarah. Sarah, calm down," Mom said above Sammie and Sarah's screams.
"Mom, he made the school musical Grease and I can't participate," Sarah struggled against Puck's hold.
Mom took a deep breath and glanced at me before looking back to Sarah, "I'm sorry, honey," she left the room and we could hear her start warming up another bottle.
Puck kissed the top of Sarah's head, "Calm down," he whispered.
Sarah broke away from his arms. She glared at me before angrily leaving the room.
"Hey, I'll try-"
I cut Puck off, "No, just leave her. I don't care."
He nodded, "Alright. I know you're totally lying, but alright."
I rolled my eyes, "Just go."

Puck's Point of View
I hesitantly opened the door to my room, "Sarah."
"It hurts," she breathed.
"Hey, come on," I crawled on the bed over to her and pulled her on my lap, "Forget about Finn. He doesn't matter."
"I would be an amazing Sandy," Sarah whispered.
"Yeah you would," I smirked.
"And we could have found you a Danny wig," Sarah laughed.
I hugged her tightly, "I wouldn't have been in the play though."
"So? It would have been fun," she laid down so her head was on my thigh as she looked up at me.
I played with the ends of her hair, "I'm sorry you can't be in the play."
"Oh, I could probably still be in it, but I don't really want to. There aren't any pregnant girls in Grease," Sarah sighed, "But if there were, I'd totally get the part."
I smiled, "Yeah and you'd be amazing at it."
She sat up, "I memorized all the music to the movie in one weekend. Grandma took me to see the play once and it was amazing. That was when I started preparing for the role of Sandy. Aiden and Liz thought I was crazy, but I ignored them and kept at it. I was Rachel Berry."
I watched as tears started falling down her cheeks. I pulled her back against me, "Hey, I am so sorry. This is all my fault."
Sarah sobbed, "It's not anyone's fault, it just sucks because I've wanted this for so long and I can't...I can't have it."
I tightened my hold on her, "I am so sorry," I whispered.
Sarah cried a little longer before quieting down. She started whispering something and it took me a second to realize it as one of the songs from Grease.
You better shape up,
'cause I need a man
and my heart is set on you.
You better shape up;
you better understand
to my heart I must be true.
I took a breath knowing what'd she'd expect of me.
Nothin' left, nothin' left for me to do.
Sarah laughed and looked up at me with a smile before we both sang the chorus.
You're the one that I want.
(you are the one i want), o,o, oo, honey.
The one that I want.
(you are the one i want want), o,o,oo, honey.
The one that I want
(you are the one i want want), o,o, ooooo
The one I need.
Oh, yes indeed.
I laughed with Sarah as she kissed me while pushing us back against the pillows.
"I love you," she breathed against my lips.
"I know," I smirked.
"Told you I knew the song," Sarah sat up on my chest.
I nodded, "I never doubted you."
"I think I know how I can still be part of the play," Sarah's eyes widened.
"Set design?" I suggested.
She shook her head, "No, better."

Sarah's Point of View
I slowly walked up the stairs of the auditorium towards Finn, Mike, Mercedes, and Artie. This pregnant thing was getting a little old. I was going to be stuck on one floor for the next two months.
Mercedes waved at me when I got closer, "Hey girl. What are you doing up here?"
"I came to talk to Finn," I told her with a glance to my brother.
Finn's eyes widened, "I don't think that's a good idea."
I rolled my eyes, "I'm not going to hurt you."
Finn bit his lip and stood, "Fine."
We walked over a couple rows before I sat down.
"Is this a big conversation or something?" Finn asked, "Why are you sitting down?"
"My feet are tired," I answered.
"Alright," Finn sat next to me, "What's up?"
"I want to help direct the play."
~~~~~GLEE~~~~~
Finn's Point of View
I stared at her, "I'm sorry, what?"
"I want to help direct the play," Sarah repeated.
I glanced behind me at Mike, Mercedes, and Artie, "I don't know Sars, there's already so many people working on it."
"Come on, please, Finn," Sarah begged, "I know this musical like the back of my hand and you know it."
I sighed. She was right.
"And," Sarah continued, "I would work my butt off on it. If I was in it, it'd be perfect because hello, look at me. So if I'm going to direct it, I'd make it just as perfect."
I rolled my eyes, "I hope your kid isn't as big as your ego cause then he'd be a giant."
"Ha ha, very funny," Sarah smirked, "But please, let me co-direct."
I groaned and put my head in my hands, "Sarah."
"Finn," Sarah mocked.
I looked up at her, "You want to help direct, fine."
"Yes!" Sarah wrapped her arms around me, "Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love you so much Finn!"
I smirked, "I know."
"So tell me, what changed your mind?" Sarah asked.
I stood with a grin on my face, "Puck text me saying you had something to say to me before auditions, so I kinda figured you'd want to help. I've been thinking about it the whole time and when you started begging, that made me decide what to do."
Sarah grabbed my hand and helped herself up, "Even though I'm going to kill Puck for sort of spoiling my surprise, I'm glad you said yes."
I led her over to the others, "Guys, meet our new co-director."
"Finn," Artie said quietly.
Sarah rolled her eyes and sat next to Mike, "Deal with it Artie. You're just directing because you can't walk which is kinda like my situation."
I smacked the back of her head lightly, "Quit it," I sat back in my seat, "Artie, Sarah knows how this musical as well, if not better, as Kurt and Wicked; she'll do a good job."
"Alright, just making sure," Artie bent forward and gave a small glare to Sarah before glancing back at me, "But remember, last in, first out."
"Shut up," I chuckled.
~~~~~GLEE~~~~~
Marley and Wade danced around on stage and it was awesome. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Mercedes and Mike agreed as well. Sarah, on the other hand, was watching with a blank stare on her face.
As Marley and Wade left the stage Sarah angrily hit her hand against the table, "That should be me."
Mike put a hand on her shoulder, "That is you. Sarah, you're an amazing singer and dancer; I can guarantee if you were trying out, that'd be what you would have done, only better."
Sarah gave a small smile, "Thanks, that's sweet of you."
"Girl, I can't wait until you're back on stage where you belong," Mercedes said.
Sarah laughed, "I hope I get back someday."
"Sectionals," Artie stated, "And that's a fact. Can you say 'solo'?"
I chuckled, "Yeah, don't get your hopes down, Sars, you'll be back. So what Marley's probably going to get the part and she looks/acts a lot like you? She's not going to steal your place in glee."
Sarah's eyes widened before she quickly stood up, "Um, Mercedes, can you come to the bathroom with me?"
Mercedes shot me a glare as she nodded, "Of course."
After they walked away, I looked at the guys, "Did I say something wrong?"
Artie and Mike smacked the back of my head.
~~~~~GLEE~~~~~
Sarah squirmed around in her seat, "I am really excited to see Jake audition."
"What's he like?" Mercedes asked, "Is he uncle material?"
"He's not bad," I butt in, "He's a lot like Puck."
"He's pretty funny," Mike added in.
"I wonder who he'll try out for, though," Artie sighed.
Sarah raised her eyebrows, "There's a 99% chance we're casting a black male as Rizzo, a brunette for Sandy, and a redhead for Danny; and you're wondering where we're going to put a half black guy."
I looked up to see Jake and a blonde girl walk on stage.
Sarah's eyes widened, "He wouldn't."
"What?" Mike whispered.
"I'm Kitty and this is Jake and we're auditioning for Sandy and Danny," the blonde smiled widely at us.
They walked to their places before beginning the song. All I can say is that it's obvious why Kitty's a Cheerio and that Jake must have gotten his dancing skills from his mom because I've never seen Puck do anything like that.
We clapped for them when they were done and all looked at each other. They were the last for the day.
"I vote Jake for Danny and Marley for Sandy, done, let's go," Sarah stood.
I reached over and tugged her down by her shirt, "We are not done."
"Does this have anything to do with you thinking Jake and Marley belong together?" Artie asked.
Sarah rolled her eyes, "No."
He raised his eyebrows, "Really?"
Sarah groaned, "Ok, yes, but they're made for each other."
"That is no way to pick your cast," Artie told us, "And for that reason, I think we should go with Kitty and Ryder, their the best option, safe, but the best."
"Hey, Jake and Marley are so much better," Sarah fought.
"I think otherwise," Artie retorted.
"Sometimes safe is dull and which means risky is better," Sarah said.
Mercedes rolled her eyes, "You guys-"
"Says the girl who took the risk and got pregnant," Artie interrupted.
"Hey! You leave Puck and Nate out of this!" Sarah yelled.
My phone buzzed as I groaned. I pulled it from my pocket and glanced at the screen.
I've got sars you get artie. Let's drug them so they'll shut up and we can make this decision ourself ~ Mike
I chuckled and he looked up smiling. I showed Mercedes my phone who nodded with a laugh. All the while Sarah and Artie continued their fight across the table. This was going to last forever.
~~~~~GLEE~~~~~
Sarah's Point of View
I stood next to Finn as we watched everyone walk up to receive their roles for Grease. Sure I wasn't completely happy about the end product, but it'll still be great. Plus I was super excited to see Kitty's reaction.
Speaking of the cat, Kitty walked up and looked at the list and screamed. I laughed as she went off on being Patty Simcox. The girl deserved it.
I tuned in when she started yelling at Marley, "Hey," I stepped in, "Shut up."
Kitty raised her eyebrows, "Excuse me?"
"You heard me," I stated, "Shut. Up."
Kitty scoffed and crossed her arms, "I don't think you know who I am."
"I think I do," I said, "You're the bitch who wasn't nearly good enough to play Sandy in my play, so now you're yelling at the girl who did. You're pretty much the stereotypical cheerleader with a crush on the football player, yet somehow you managed to date then get dumped by the bad boy. By the way, three nipples? Nice excuse."
"Ugh, you are unbelievable, fatso, go dump the kid already," Kitty spun on her heel and marched away.
Tears sprung to my eyes and I angrily wiped them, "Hate her," I muttered.
Sam came over and pulled me against his chest, "Hey, come on, not here, I'll take you home."
I nodded, "Thanks."
As Sam led me to the parking lot, I could hear Sue walk up and look at the list. That probably was going to be just as dramatic as was Kitty and I just did.
~~~~~GLEE~~~~~
Sam's Point of View
Sarah cried quietly as I drove her home. I didn't know what to do besides hold her hand tightly and bring her to her boyfriend.
I pulled up in the driveway, "We're here."
Sarah choked in a breath, "Thank you."
I smiled, "It's no problem."
She opened the door, "Wanna come in? I know Puck's kinda missed seeing you everyday even if he doesn't say it."
I nodded, "Sure."
Sarah led the way into her house and to her room. She pushed open the door to see Puck strumming softly on his guitar on the bed.
He looked up, "Hey."
Sarah slid on his lap, "Baby, I needed you today."
I awkwardly watched while leaning against the door.
"Really?" Puck asked.
"Mhmm," Sarah whispered, "I'll tell you in a minute, but first I have to go to the bathroom," she hopped off and went past me to her destination.
"What happened?" Puck asked harshly.
I chuckled while walking further into the room and taking a seat at the desk, "Sars got in a little fight."
Puck groaned, "What'd she do?"
"She, actually, was just standing up for Marley. Kitty, on the other hand, called her a fatso and told her that she should just dump the kid already. Sarah was pretty shook up so I offered to drive her home," I explained.
Puck's hands curled into fists, "Jake told me that girl was no good, I should have warned Sarah."
I shook my head, "I have a feeling Sarah would have stood up for Marley no matter who she was against."
He nodded, "I know," he grumbled while staring at the ground.
I rolled the chair forward and gently hit his shoulder, "She's strong. I know she's probably upset now, but you've helped her enough that she'll get past this."
Puck looked up with a smirk, "Thanks."
I patted his shoulder one more time before standing up, "I'm gonna go, I have a feeling Sarah's going to need you right now and I don't want to get in the way."
Puck laughed, "Thanks, you're probably right."
I nodded, "See you later."
"Yeah," he said. Just as I was about to leave, he called after me, "Text me some more some time, I sorta miss you, you little punk."
I chuckled and waved a hand, "Will do, man."
I passed the bathroom door and was suddenly attacked, "Hey!" I yelled.
Sarah giggled, "Thanks for everything, you're the best."
I smiled while untangling myself from her, "You're welcome."
She placed a soft kiss on my cheek, "I'll see you tomorrow."
I nodded, "You can count on that."
Sarah laughed while walking back into her room. I smiled and went out to my car. That family was going to end up alright.

Sneak Peak: My heart broke, "Jake," I whispered. He shrugged off my hand that I had put on his arm, "I'm fine. Come on, we have a musical to finish." I bit my lip while watching him walk away, could this night be filled with any more drama?
Sarah gets on all the craziness that happened back stage!
