"Hello?"

"Noah, it's Rachel." Rachel replied.

"Do you realize that you're calling me at 5 o'clock in the morning?" Puck asked.

"I forgot about the time difference." Rachel muttered. "Sorry."

"Right, well, I'm up now so what was so important that it needed a 5 AM call instead of a text?" Puck wondered.

"It's about Shelby. And Beth. I..." Rachel trailed off.

"What about her? Is she okay?" Puck questioned Rachel as he sat up. "Rachel?"

Puck heard the phone shuffle.

"Dude, it's me." Finn said. "You should come to New York as soon as you can, okay?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'll get on the next flight out there." Puck promised as he got up and opened the blinds, waking up the blonde girl in his bed. "Is Beth okay?"

"Beth's fine." Finn promised. "It's Shelby."

"I'll be right there." Puck repeated. "Did you call Quinn?"

"Not yet." Finn answered. "We figured we'd call you first."

"Thanks." Puck replied as he started to pack a bag. "See you guys soon."

"See you." Finn repeated.

Puck hung up the phone and looked at the girl, who was sitting up in his bed.

"You should get out of here." Puck said as he tossed the girl her clothes and continued packing.

The girl got up and got dressed, looking at Puck when she was done.

Puck rolled his eyes as he walked her to the door. "I'll call you."
