Beginning Our Life

Last Time: The Hudson-Hummel-Puckerman family started decorating for Christmas, but had some difficulties. And that's what you missed on Beginning Our Life.

Ok, this is the alternate version of Glee in Artie's dream. It picks up where Artie and Rory found the guys picking on Kurt, but this time's Sarah's there. Enjoy!

Alternate Reality

Artie's Point of View

Just when I thought the scene couldn't get any worse, I heard a high pitched laugh.

My eyes widened as Sarah stepped in front of Jake and she sneered at Kurt, her curled ponytail swinging in the air, "Finny, can I have his cape? Maybe I could try pretending to be a superhero tonight in bed. Puck, baby, would you like that?"

Puck's smirk grew, "Of course."

"Hey, will I get to play again?" Sam asked.

"Definitely," Sarah breathed.

I turned to Rory, "What's going on?"

"Without glee, Finn didn't have a father figure, so he decided to look up the facts on his real dad. He found out the truth about the overdose and called Sarah, bringing her home before she could meet her new friends. Sarah was so upset, but had no idea what to do, so she joined the Cheerios to try and make some friends," he answered.

I looked back at everyone to see Sarah really did have a Cheerios uniform on.

"So she's still dating Puck? Is she pregnant?" I asked.

Rory chuckled, "Oh she's dating Puck, but she's pregnant with Sam's baby."

"What?" I glanced over where Sarah was laughing and hugging Puck's arm, yet her hand was in Sam's pocket.

"They'll always think it's Puck's daughter though, even when she comes out with blonde hair and giant lips," Rory nodded.

"She sounds like she'll look exactly like Sam though," I wondered.

Rory shrugged, "Beth had blonde hair, so they'll all just figure that if Puck's first kid had blonde hair, so would his second."

I shook my head at their stupidness and stepped forward to stop the madness.

In the end, Sarah glared at me before grabbing Puck's hand and following him away, but not before I could hear her whisper, "Come on, let's skip Spanish and go have a quicky in the storage closet to make you feel better."

I ran a hand over my face, the normal Sarah would never consider skipping class just to mess around with her boyfriend.

Sarah's Alternate Point of View

Puck's breath was hot against my neck, "God, I love you so much."

I laughed softly and ran my hands down his bare back, "I love you too."

The door jingled softly, "Hey! Is someone in here?"

My eyes widened and for the first time, I became scared, "Puck," I whispered, "What are we going to do?"

He shrugged, "I don't know, this has never happened to me before."

My jaw dropped and I gasped, "Well, at least help me get dressed," I hissed as we could hear the key in the lock, I still wasn't clear how Puck had managed to lock it with my bobby pin.

"No way, you're a big girl, dress yourself," Puck muttered while sitting up and tossing on his shirt.

I blinked back tears, the adrenaline from my last act completely gone, while trying to find my underwear.

"Don't bother, it's in my pocket," Puck said, "Hurry up, though, the janitor may be stupid, but he'll find the key at some point."

I nodded and slipped on my Cheerios uniform just as the door flew open. Puck and I looked up to see the librarian staring down at us.

"I thought so," Rachel glared, "Noah, you always were one to sneak away."

Puck jumped up, "Hey there, Rachel," he slid his hand up her arm, "You wanna turn? Sarah's all done."

"Hey!" I gasped and shot up next to the two of them, "I thought you were my boyfriend and you've just been acting like a jerk!"

Rachel was still stuttering, but Puck rolled his eyes, "Come on, I'll make it up to you tonight," he bent down to whisper in my ear, "I'm just trying to get us out of a detention date."

I pursed my lips and stormed past Rachel and Puck.

"Sarah!" my boyfriend called, "Get back here!"

"Hey! Sarah!" another voice yelled.

I looked up at Artie running towards me, "What do you want?" I gave him my best Cheerios sneer; he never was my favorite football player, I preferred Puck or Sam or even Jake.

"Go to the choir room," he said.

I crossed my arms, "Coach Sue turned the choir room into our own costume room years ago, Abrams, you know that."

Artie looked confused before quickly shaking his head, "Whatever, just go there, please."

I scoffed, "Fine."

I marched off to the room, but paused in the doorway; it was packed and not with Cheerios. A lot of Finn's football friends were there along with a Brittany and Kitty, but there were some people that I've never even seen too in here. I took a spot next to Sam.

"Hey," he smiled.

I smiled back, "Hey, so I was hoping you could come over tonight?"

"Sam's coming to my house," Brittany turned around, "We were going to play. Wanna come too, Sars?"

I bit my lip and glanced between the two of them. I was just about to say 'No' when Puck bounded up the steps and swept me in his arms, "Hey there, beautiful."

I groaned and slipped to the ground, "Hi Puck."

He followed me over to the corner desks, "What is your problem?"

"Do you love me?" I snapped.

Puck leaned against a mannequin, "Yeah."

"Yeah? That's all you can say?" I shoved him back an inch, "We've dated for months and that's all you say?"

"I told you that I loved you earlier," Puck muttered.

"So?" I raised my eyebrows, "That was probably because you just got laid."

Puck's face hardened and just as he opened his mouth to speak, Artie walked in, "Alright, sit, everyone, sit."

"This isn't over," I hissed while sitting down in a spare chair between Jake and Ryder.

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

"You realize I was just here because your brother is still failing English? And now I have to come back to this school and pick up my daughter because she was caught sleeping with her boyfriend in the janitor's closet!" Mom yelled as we left the school.

She was pretty pissed. Berry had turned Puck and I into Figgins. The two of us were suspended for the rest of the week; it wasn't that bad since it was only Wednesday, but still. Apparently she was already here to talk to Finn's teacher because of his grades, whatever.

"Are you trying to make me look like a bad parent, Noah? How hard are you trying?"

I glanced behind my shoulder at Puck and Ms. Ruth now walking out of the building.

"Sarah!" Mom snapped her fingers, "Enough! You know what? You're done! No more Noah, no more Sam, no more any of those boys that seem to end up as Finn's 'friend' at eight in the morning, yet your brother doesn't even know their name. What happened to you?" she stopped in the middle of the parking lot, forcing me to stop as well, "Huh? What happened to the little girl who wouldn't dare breaking a rule because she was afraid her mom would yell at her? Where's that little girl, Sarah? Because frankly, I want her back."

I stared down at the ground, blinking back tears. She was right, I was a monster.

"Look what you've done," Ms. Ruth's voice hissed, "Do you remember when Sarah was perfect? Well, you've ruined that, haven't you?"

"Mom," Puck whispered.

"No, you just destroy everything you touch," Ms. Ruth yelled at the same time I heard Puck grunt in-what sounded like-pain.

Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Mom look up with slightly wider eyes. I hastily wiped my own and turned around just in time to see Ms. Ruth slap Puck across the face.

"Ruth!" Mom screeched and ran forward, "What the kids did was terrible, but it's no reason to hit them."

I rushed forward as well and grabbed Puck's hand, "Are you ok?"

He absentmindedly rubbed his jaw while keeping his eyes on our moms, "I'm fine."

I reached up and kissed his other cheek, "I'm sorry for yelling at you earlier."

Puck held me close to him, "It's fine. Even though you're only apologizing because of my mom, I'll forgive you."

Mom marched over and grabbed my elbow, "Come on, you're grounded, I shouldn't have aloud that."

"But Mom!" I scrambled after her while staring back at Puck as his mom started yelling at him again, "What about Puck?"

Mom sighed, "Yes, what happened is terrible and I'd love to help Noah, but right now we have to focus on getting you back to normal and to get Finn to graduate this year. Ok? Ok."

I yanked my arm away, "Fine, just let Puck die. Real nice Mom," I burst into tears and ran over to wait by her car. What has happened?

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

The dinner table was silent as we all ate our spaghetti. Mom had been avoiding me the rest of the day, something Finn noticed and decided to partake in as well.

The doorbell rang a couple times. The three of us stared at each other until Mom exasperatedly stood, "I guess I have to get it."

Finn and I looked down at our plates while Mom rushed to get the door.

"What can I-Noah!" Mom screamed.

Finn and I jumped up from the table and fought to get to the front door.

"Dude, what happened?" Finn chuckled.

I shoved past him, "Puck!"

Puck gave a small, pain-filled smirk, "Hey, baby."

I carefully ran a hand down his bruised cheek, avoiding the tiny cut under his eye, "What happened?"

"My mom," he muttered while leaning down to kiss me.

Mom stepped between us and grabbed Puck's arm, "Not now. Right now we have to get you cleaned up and then call the police."

"Uh, no," Puck shook off Mom and stumbled into Finn who caught him, "I'm fine, I just need to stay here for the night."

Mom crossed her arms, "Noah."

Finn pushed off Puck, "Usually I don't agree with my mom, but I think she's right."

"Where's your sister?" I asked.

Puck rolled his eyes, "She's staying at a friend's for the night, she's fine."

I glanced between Mom, who was biting her lip and seemed to be fighting herself, and Finn, who was fingering his phone in his pocket, before lacing my fingers between Puck's and tugging him to the bathroom, "I'll help you get cleaned up then you can sleep in my room tonight."

Puck nodded, "Thanks, Sars. And Ms. Carole," he turned around to look at Mom, "Thanks for letting me stay here."

Mom smiled for the first time that night, "Anytime; you know you're always welcome here."

~~~~~GLEE~~~~~

I laid down on Puck's chest, "Twice in one day, I'm a lucky girl."

He chuckled, "Sorry I couldn't really kiss you, my jaw kinda hurts."

I nodded and softly kissed his shoulder, "I understand. I knew after earlier that something was wrong. How-"

"We're not going to get all sappy, Sarah, and that's final," Puck stated, "So what my mom kinda tossed me around tonight? No problem."

I sighed, "Noah-"

"Come on, one more round before we go to sleep," Puck flipped us over and started kissing my neck.

My heart took over my mind as I aloud him to continue.

Artie's Point of View (Actual Reality)

Just as Finn was pushing me out to Mom's car, Sarah ran into me, not seeing since she was texting.

"Whoa, hey there," I chuckled.

She smiled, "Sorry, I was just talking to Puck."

I nodded, "It's fine."

Finn gently hit Sarah's shoulder, "Anything I need to know?"

She shook her head, "He was just reminding me that one month from now is my due date which means, this is the last month before we're real parents."

"Are you sure the baby's Puck's?" I questioned.

"What?" Sarah and Finn asked at the same time.

"Eight months ago, did you happen to sleep with Sam?" I added in.

"Dude!" Finn slapped my head, "Shut up!"

Sarah laughed softly and shook her head, "I can honestly swear on my baby sister's life that the father of my son is Noah David Puckerman."

I nodded, "Good, 'cause you never know."

She bent down and gave me a quick hug, "Thanks for the laugh Artie. I hope your cuts heal up quickly," she bounced off to catch up with Marley.

"What was that?" Finn asked while pushing me outside.

I shrugged, "No reason. Hey, you're still nice to Kurt right?"

Finn chuckled, "Yeah, man, I am, he is my brother," he patted my shoulder once in the parking lot, "I'll see you later."

I gave a small smile while wheeling away, "Yeah, see ya."
