A/N: Kind of wanted to show the more softer side of Puck. He's still a bad ass but he is my favorite glee guy aside from Mike and Sam.
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Except mistakes.
Puck was in the room he shared with Sam after Alex showed him the motorcycle collections they had. His acoustic guitar in his arms that he saved from the school. Strumming the strings to random songs and notes he could think of, his mind wondered off to his mother and sister. He knew they were gone, just because when he asked, Alex said that they were the only survivors. It hurt him, knowing his mom and little sister were gone.
"Hey dude, I'm going to the gym down stairs, you want to come?" asked Sam.
Puck pursed his lips as he thought then shook his head, "Naw, you go ahead,"
Sam shrugged and left, leaving Puck to his thoughts.
Slowly strumming his guitar, the mohawked boy's mind was whirling with things his mother had told him way back when he was young and still an only child.
I want you to grow up and be a man that love's his spouse, someone who love's himself. Noah, I want you to be a simple man.
Just like that, Puck began to strum the cords to of a song he could relate to perfectly, something he always wanted to dedicate to his mother if she ever died.
Well momma told me, when I was young
Sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely, to what I say
And if you do this, it will help you some sunny day
His low voice sounded raspy and broken, as he sung the song lowly, looking out the window next to his cot.
Or take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will past
You'll find a woman, and you'll find love
And don't forget that there's a someone up above
Closing his eyes as he sung, Puck could see all the day's his mother played with him at the park on sunny days and took him out for ice cream.
Be a simple kind of man, be a something you'll love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man, Oh won't you do this for me son if you can
He remembered when she took him out to the many Red's games in Cincinnati for things to do and show him she could be the mother he would always needed. He didn't need his father because his mother was enough for him.
Forget your lust, for a rich man's gold
All that you need now is in your soul
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you my son is to be satisfied.
All those times she would go out of her way and teach him the rights and wrongs, on how to be a man that loved others and know what he wanted in life. His mother was everything to him, someone who taught him what it meant to be a man even if she wasn't one herself.
Oh don't you worry, you'll find yourself
Follow your heart, and nothing else
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want from you you my son is to be satisfied.
But then his sister was born and his mother just left him like he never was there. And that hurt him more then anything, more then his father leaving him, more then Quinn giving up his own baby and more then losing his best friend over the girl he thought her loved. His mother was everything to him.
Letting the last of the cords ring out in the quiet room, Puck silently let visible tears roll down his cheeks, his head resting against the wall, his eyes on the blue sky outside.
