Author's Note: Okay, so I lied. I had to post this now. If you're reading this before by other story 'Look Who's Talking' I suggest you go read that first because this is the sequel to that. If you're one of my peeps who already read that... hiya!
So, at the end of the Look Who's Talking movie, Julie is born, but then in Look Who's Talking Too we go back to her being conceived so I've gone back as well. I won't be doing the third movie because I just don't think I'd be up for writing the dog's point of view, LOL, but I will be kind of mashing movies two and three together. What I mean by that is I'm going to take certain issues from both movies and putting them into this one fic. Like I said in the author's note for the last part of Look Who's Talking, I wasn't completely pleased by that part but I really liked this one : )
I probably won't be updating as quickly as I did with Look Who's Talking because I was almost finished writing that when I started posting and I've only just started writing this one. Just a warning.
Finn's thoughts are still in italics even though he's starting to talk out loud. Brittany's thoughts are in bold and italics. There are some lyrics in here and those are also in italics but I don't think you're going to confuse those with something Finn's thinking. LOL.
Puck could barely keep his hands off of Rachel as they headed up to her apartment. They'd been a couple for three weeks now and they'd only gone on their second date that night. He'd been getting more gigs at New Directions and they'd both had a little trouble finding someone other than him to babysit for her so they could go on dates. That wasn't to say they weren't spending time together, they were, but it was just the two of them hanging around in her apartment with Finn. Neither of them were complaining but it was just really nice to get to have some time to themselves without the baby being around.
"Baby, we don't have to rush inside do we?" He asked, tugging her back against him and kissing her shoulder when she reached into her bag for her keys. She giggled but arched her neck to give him more access to her. "Stay out here for a while with me. We'll act like teenagers and make out at your front door." He muttered into her skin and she giggled again. She really would like to stay outside of her apartment and just make out with him for a little while but she knew they shouldn't.
"Noah, I'm sure Santana wants to go home." She told him and he shrugged, spinning her around to face him.
"She can stick around for a little while so we can get our mack on." He told her with a smirk, leaning in and capturing her lips. She moaned and sunk into him, her arms coming up around his neck and tugging him closer. She just couldn't help herself whenever he kissed her, he was just so good.
While they hadn't gone out on any dates since their first one they'd definitely done this type of thing a lot. Whenever Finn was sleeping and they had the chance they were fused together at the lips. He knew exactly what she liked by now and he had her practically purring in minutes, and all just by kissing her. All he wanted to do was make out with her for now, he wasn't trying to push her for anything more. The last time they'd almost had sex, back before they'd even been together, she'd freaked out and pushed him away. He wasn't going to let that happen again. He was willing to let this thing move as slowly as she needed it to because he wanted her forever and wasn't going to risk that simply because he wanted to sleep with her.
"What are you two, like 15?" Santana snapped as she pulled open the door and gave them an unimpressed look. Rachel gave her a sheepish look while Puck simply smirked outright and shrugged, not caring that they'd been busted. "Whatever, you're home so I can go now. I love Finn to death but that kid is like a machine. He's an eating machine, a pooping machine and he just won't go to sleep. I've been trying to get him to go to sleep for hours but just as I think he's about to finally fall asleep he'll be up again and running around like a psycho." She told them, sounding tired. "He's your kid, you get him to sleep." She added, waving between them, kissing Rachel's cheek but then storming out of the apartment.
"Daddy!" Finn yelled out excitedly, running towards them. He ran right into Puck's leg's so he chuckled and bent to lift the boy up, snuggling him against his chest.
"He's totally on a sugar high." He pointed out with a chuckle, running his hand up and down Finn's back. The boy was practically vibrating with energy and this was something Puck had unfortunately experienced before.
"Auntie Santana gave me a cookie and some soda and then I snuck more cookies! Cookies are awesome! I want cookies all the time! And soda too!"
"What on Earth did Santana let him eat? He's not going to go to sleep for hours which means I won't get to go to sleep for hours." Rachel complained, taking her son out of Puck's arms and rocking him back and forth, trying to make him sleepy.
"Hey, you want me to stay? Try to help calm him down and keep you company through the crazy?" He asked and she gave him a small smile. He was so sweet and thoughtful, especially where Finn was concerned.
"You don't have to." She told him, making him scoff.
"Baby, I'm not offering because I think I have to, I'm offering because I want to." He pointed out, making her smile wider. She leant into him and gave him a soft lingering kiss, making him grin against her lips.
"Why do you two keep pushing your faces together lately? It's weird. You guys are getting really weird."
Finn started babbling baby talk between them, pushing at Puck's chest and pulling Rachel's hair. They chuckled and pulled apart, seeing him looking at them with an odd look on his face. Puck could just imagine how weird it must look for him to suddenly see them kissing all the time. Heck, the kid probably didn't even know what they were doing because he'd never seen something like that up close before.
"Come on Munchkin, time to wear you out." Puck decided, taking him out of Rachel's arm and flipping him over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. Finn squealed happily and threw his hands out so it was like he was dangling, his favourite thing to do in this position. It made him felt like he was going to fall even though he knew Puck would never let him fall. Rachel chuckled and shook her head, very used to seeing the two of them playing this way.
After a while of Puck letting Finn chase him around the apartment and then Puck chasing Finn around the apartment it was clear that Puck was ready to crash while Finn was still going strong. The poor man was absolutely exhausted trying to keep up with a hyperactive one year old. Rachel chuckled and swooped Finn up onto her lap as he went barrelling past her, pulling him against her chest and letting him calm down a little and get rid of the little giggles he was still letting out. Puck let out a groan and fell onto the couch next to her, leaning against her side.
"It is way past your bedtime, mister. You really need to go to sleep." She instructed, rocking her son back and forth slowly. Finn gave her a cheeky grin and shook his head.
"Sleep? Why would I want to sleep. This is so much fun! Chase me again Daddy!"
Finn grabbed Puck's hand and tugged at it but Puck groaned again and shook his head. There was no way he was going to be able to run around with Finn anymore. He didn't have the energy that the baby had, especially because he was all high on sugar, so he couldn't do it anymore. He was just begging for the crash that came after the high to come along, but it wasn't yet and he really wondered just how much sugar Santana had let the boy have.
"Finn, it's bedtime." Rachel said softly, her voice taking on a musical lilt as she continued rocking him back and forth. She pressed his ear against her heart, wanting him to be able to hear her heartbeat and let it lull him down. She started humming softly, an old lullaby her fathers had once sung to her. Finn gave her a smile, knowing this song well, and started humming along with her. Puck couldn't help but smile watching the two of them and joined in humming, reaching out to run his fingers through Finn's hair. It didn't take too long after that for Finn to finally crash and go to sleep and Rachel smiled happily, leaning back against the couch with Finn still in her arms.
"That was amazing." Puck told her softly, giving her an impressed look. For all of his chasing Finn around the thing that had finally gotten him to calm down and to sleep was her singing to him. She was so amazing.
"I should go put him to bed." She told him but he shook his head, getting up and taking Finn out of her arms, cradling him against his chest and making sure he wouldn't wake him up.
"I'll do it. You just relax." He told her, leaning down to kiss her quickly before heading towards Finn's room.
He gently placed the boy in his crib and started tucking him in. Finn stirred a little so he stilled, not wanting to have him wake up and start the cycle all over again.
"Daddy." Finn mumbled, his eyes opening blearily to stare up at him. Rachel heard Finn's voice so got up to go help ease him back down.
"Shh, Finn. Go back to sleep." Puck whispered, running his finger's through the baby's hair. Finn grabbed hold of his hand and blinked up at him sleepily so Puck smiled softly. "You want me to sing you a lullaby, buddy?" He asked and Finn nodded, his eyes fluttering open and shut. Puck chuckled and walked over to grab his guitar from where it was resting against the wall from the day before. "Okay, but just one and then you go to sleep, okay?" He asked, grinning when Finn nodded again.
He started playing the opening chords to a song, not even noticing that Rachel was leaning against the door, watching him.
"Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceful lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands"
He was singing the old Rolling Stones song so beautifully and Rachel couldn't help but smile and watch him. Her heart was swooning at hearing him singing because his voice really fit this song.
"'Cause wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses couldn't drag me away"
The way he sung those lyrics made it one hundred percent clear that he meant that. There would be nothing on Earth that would be able to drag him away from Finn ever again, he was going to be in his life forever. Rachel's breath hitched and it made Puck realise she was there. He turned to face her and gave her a smile, continuing the song.
"I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Then you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or off stage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind "
He stared right at her as he sung the words, knowing it fit them perfectly. He changed a word, from 'now you decided' to 'then you decided' because she wasn't causing him any pain anymore, now she was making him the happiest he'd ever been, but for a while there he'd been completely miserable. He meant the words completely because no dramatic exits or things said in the heat of the moment was going to make him leave or resent her. He loved her so much and he knew that all that shit was in the past. They hadn't actually exchanged words of love but he knew she felt the same as he did about her.
"Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses couldn't drag me away"
He nodded at her, letting her know that nothing was going to take him away from her either. He was never going to be like Jesse, or like his father, he was never going to hurt her like that. Tears came to her eyes and she nodded because she got it and she wanted him to know she felt the same.
"Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses we'll ride them someday
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses we'll ride them someday"
He finished the song and then put his guitar down, breaking his gaze with Rachel to check that Finn was asleep again. The boy was fast asleep, clutching the stuffed panda that he'd once given to Puck but had gotten back when he'd stopped fighting with Rachel. He smiled and leant down to kiss Finn's forehead before heading out of the bedroom. Rachel had already left and he found her in the living room, staring at a picture of the three of them from a few weeks before they'd fought and had almost been torn apart before they'd even had a chance.
"Hey." He whispered, walking up behind her and kissing her shoulder. Then he noticed she was crying and frowned. "Baby... I didn't mean to upset you. I thought... I mean, I was just singing that song as a lullaby because... because it's pretty but also kind of fits our whole situation. I didn't mean anything bad..." He stumbled to explain but she whirled around and cut him off by kissing him desperately. His eyes widened for a moment in shock before closing them and sinking into the kiss. He wrapped his arms around her and tugged her closer to him, deepening the kiss.
"Come with me." She instructed, pulling out of the kiss after a few moments and taking his hand. She was breathing heavily both from the kiss and from the thought of what she wanted. It took Puck a moment to realise that she was leading him towards her bedroom.
"Rach?" He asked curiously, feeling his heart pounding. He brought them both to a stop in the doorway to her room. She gave him a soothing smile and tugged him again, crossing over the threshold of her room and shutting the door behind them. She stepped closer to him and started undoing the buttons of his shirt, moving slowly and staring into his eyes the whole time. He swallowed heavily but let her push her shirt off his shoulders and pool to the floor once she had it completely undone. "We don't have to do this right now. I mean, we don't have to rush into anything." He told her, not wanting her to rush into anything she wasn't ready for. He wasn't entirely sure she was ready to move their relationship into the more physical aspects.
"I want to do this." She assured him, bringing her own hands up to her dress and pulling down the zipper on the side of it slowly. His eyes followed the motion hungrily but grabbed her hands before she had a chance to push it off.
"I just... I guess I don't understand where this is coming from." He admitted. The last time they'd been in this position it had been after he'd sung for her as well and he dimly wondered if it was just having someone sing to her that got her hot. It would make sense, she was a very musical person, but he didn't want the first time they made love to be simply because she found him hot with his guitar in his hand and singing her a song, he wanted it to mean more than that.
"Wild horses couldn't drag me away from you either, Noah. Nothing's going to take me away from you again." She told him and he couldn't help but groan, tugging her closer to him and kissing her again. He lifted her up slightly and then lowered her onto the bed, following her onto it. He tugged her dress off and then took the chance to pull back and just admire how beautiful she was. "I love you, Noah." She whispered thickly and he snapped his gaze back to hers.
"Fuck, Rachel." He ground out, kissing her again. "I love you too. So fucking much, Baby." He muttered into her lips, sliding his arms around her waist and tugging her up against him tighter. She couldn't help but smile against his lips. They both let themselves get swept up in each other, surrendering to their urges to finally be completely joined as one.
Author's Note: And now just picture the, um, fertilisation scene from the movies. LOL.
The song used in this is 'Wild Horses' by Rolling Stone. It is such a beautiful song, especially certain versions of it, and I know people who play it as a lullaby for their baby plus it actually fit Rachel and Puck's history so much it was eerie. I changed a couple of lyrics slightly to make it fit even better and eliminated a verse, FYI.
Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy this story as much as the other one : )
