     How Rachel Berry got nickname the Panther     


It was the morning after the Gleeks had threw a party for the end of Winter Break. Rachel was glad to have had a distraction after her recent breakup with Finn. They had broke up after Finn snapped about Rachel's love of musical and not showing any interest in sports.

So here Rachel sat in the local Starbucks, just outside Lima, nursing a hangover and sipping on a soy latte. She was sporting the typical sunglasses and a hoody she had borrowed from one of her dads. And anyone who knew Rachel would find odd if they walked and say her in normal clothing and not a reindeer sweater. So when Quinn, Brittany and Santana walked in, they nearly didn't recognize the petite brunette. As they went to leave Santana spotted Rachel.

“Well, well , well look what we have here it's the Pink Panther!” Santana said as she took a seat at the girl's table.

Rachel looked left then right in confusion.

“Excuse me Santana, are you talking to me?” Rachel asked.

“Well midget who else would I be calling that?” Santana replied. Before Rachel had a chance to say anything, Quinn spoke up.

“Rachel, what exactly do you remember from last night?” Quinn asked wearily. The two girls had a very odd friendship of some sort but they were on a first name basis now.

“Well I have a heck of a hangover, noone wants to meet me for coffee and Santana is calling me the Pink Panther.”

“It would be easier to just start at the beginning, Berry” Santana sighed.

*Flashback*

Rachel Berry turned up at the Lopez house dressed in typical Rachel Berry fashion. Some german clogs her dad's had bought her. A pink jumper with a poodle on the front over a normal button up blouse and some sort of denim skirt that noone should be seen dead in. Well this was Santana Lopez's opinion at least.

When Santana opened the door she bit back the insult she had for the small brunette. She had promised Brittany she would nice to Rachel. As soon as Rachel walked in door , she was called over to the kitchen where everyone seemed to be doing shots. A wine cooler was thrust into her hand and Rachel knew then.. this was gonna be a messy night.

3 hours later

“Go Berry””Rach,Rach””Cmon Rachel”

Those were just some of the chants that could be heard in the Lopez living room. Rachel was about to do a suicide shot. Salt up the nose. Lemon juice in the eye. And a shot. 30 seconds later the room erupted in cheers.

“Berry's got balls!!” Santana shouted.

At that moment Rihanna - We Found Love started playing through the speakers. Rachel started crawling along the table doing some sort of clawing along motions to some of the boys. It started getting even creepier when the girl started growling. But everyone was too drunk to notice and started dancing to the song.

“Santana, do you have a pool!?” Rachel was screaming over the music.

“EVERYONE IN LIMAS HEIGHTS HAS A POOL, BERRY. PARTY IN THE POOOL”

The club tried re-enacting Mr Schue's proposal number to no avail. Rachel tried doing the walk across water and almost drowned.

*End of Flashback*

“.. and you named yourself Pink Panther. Because your favourite colour's pink and you was a crazy cat last night.”

“I did all of that..” Rachel said with brightening red cheeks.

“That's not all Rach...” Quinn said with caution

“Quinn......” Rachel asked

“Rachel you texted me saying 'He bought me a oreo ice cream cake with "thanks for not calling the cops!" written in icing. If that doesn't sum up winter break, I don't know what does.'” Quinn told Rachel.

“Who bought me all that? I'm a Vegan!!” Rachel asked

“You really don't remember, do you?” Santana spoke between laughs. Rachel shook her head. The latina girl continued “.. well let's just say that everyone at this table has now seen Puckerman's junk.” Rachel now had a horrified look on her face as the memory came back to her.

*Flashback*

Rachel was currently being chased by Mike. She has stole his RayBans shouting that looked better on her than they did him and was refusing to give them back. She also had her top rolled up into a makeshift 'Hit Me Baby One More Time' look and she even had the black skirt from Santana's closet to match. Mike managed to snag the glasses back and put them in his pocket out of Rachel's grasp.

Rachel had her eyes on a new target now. Blaine and Puck. The two boys had turned upto Santana's wearing the moustache's they had worn in the “I Can't Go For That” mashup against The Troubletones. Rachel now made it her to mission to steal one of the boy's moustache's. She needed to find them first. She tried finding Blaine first.

She found him tucked up near Kurt fast asleep on Santana's couch. There was no way she was going to be able to get his moustache. He was face down smothered a see of pillows, and even though she was slightly drunk Rachel still didn't want to disturb the boy. So now her other option was Puck. Noone had seen the boy. So Rachel checked outside, she heard a rustle from the bushes. As she walked closer, she could make out a figure, a male figure. As she took another step the figure turned.

“NOAH” Rachel shouted. Puck quickly put his hand over Rachel's mouth to shut her up and when he was sure she would be quiet he let go. At that point Rachel realised Puck's state of undress.

“NOAH PUCKERMAN! WERE YOU JUST PEEING ON THE LOPEZ'S PLANTS!!”

“Rachel , keep your voice down, jeez!”

“Noah, this is a criminal offense!You could get arrested! What about Nationals or College? With a criminal record they might not let you in college. Then you will probably have work at McDonalds or KFC and what about Beth! Didn't you think about her! I mean I doubt Shelby will let you see Beth if you don't have a good job! I think I need to sit down..”

“First of all Rachel, calm down. I really needed to pee but Brittany forgot how to unlock the door. That's why I'm peeing outside. And working at fast food would be awesome! Employee discount, and Shelby wouldn't stop me seeing Beth. Now I'm going inside. This never happened, Berry” Puck walked, but not before flashing Rachel a wink.

*End of Flashback*

“I'm transferring!” Rachel said after Santana finished.

“Stop being so dramatic, Berry. You was hilarious, I actually like you for a night”

Rachet just sat there open-mouthed shocked.

“And now I dislike you again.. Boring as wood sober, crazy as a cat drunk”

They all lived happily ever after in Lima, Ohio
