Chapter 1
Disclaimer: I do not own Glee, I am just borrowing my favorite couple because they so need to get back together.
It was a few weeks after Rachel and Noah's breakup. During those few weeks Finn had attempted another botched seduction of Rachel. It was for this reason she was hiding quietly in the auditorium trying to get her emotions under control. She was flipping through her sheet music when the door banged open and two very agitated people entered the room.
"I can't believe that you've decided to give up my kid without even telling me!" cried Puck angrily.
"Shut-up idiot," hissed Quinn, "I thought I made it clear the first time you spoke to me about this. But obviously you are completely retarded and I am going to have to repeat myself. What happened between us was the result of one drunken mistake. You're a Lima loser and always will be. Let me make this clear Puckerman, if you try and cross me or decided to tell Finn, I will tell the whole world what "really" happened. I have a few hysterical sob sessions about how you got me drunk and took advantage when I was too drunk to say no, and another sob session on how I was too scared to tell anyone and you're looking at criminal charges."
"You only had one wine cooler, and it was you Quinn that initiated the sex between us, you begged me, I most definitely did not take advantage of you," Puck growled at her.
"Well duh, Puck, I was there. But who do you think is really going to believe you considering your reputation when compared to mine," said Quinn with a smirk as she head out the door.
Rachel jumped when she heard a loud crash occur. Rachel peered around the piano to see that Noah had apparently thrown a music stand across the stage before sinking to the floor. From her spot Rachel could see Noah's shoulders shaking, she could hear the harsh breaths he was taking as he tried to get himself under control. Rachel really couldn't understand what possessed her to get up and walk quietly towards Noah. Kneeling next to his shaking form she wrapped her arms around him. It took but a moment for Noah to bury his face in the crook of her neck. She held him tightly as she felt the tears drip down her neck.
Puck watched in a rage as Quinn departed the room. He grabbed the nearest thing he could throw which happened to be a music stand and chucked across the stage before sinking to the floor. He was breathing harshly trying to keep it to together, trying to keep from falling apart. He was so intent about staying in control that he barely recognized that he was being embraced until her scent filled his nostrils. Then everything seemed to register at an amazingly fast rate. He was being embraced by Rachel, who had most likely had heard everything. All the tension that had been riding in him since his first encounter with Quinn seemed to drain from his body, before he knew it he had buried his face in the crook of her neck and his tears were falling.
Rachel held him until the tears dried. As he pulled away to look at her, Rachel gasped at the pain she saw in Noah's eyes. Rachel wanted to ease his pain so she cupped his face and pulled him in for a kiss. Puck closed his eyes as he felt Rachel's lips on his. Needing this escape Puck drowned himself in Rachel. He lost himself in the taste and texture of her lips, the smell of her perfume the sounds that emerged from her. As he sank deeper into the sensations he was experiencing he pulled Rachel deeper too.
Rachel sighed into Noah's mouth, as the kiss intensified. He was everywhere filling her senses; the taste of his lips, his smell, and the frenzy with which he possessed her. He took complete control of her until she was reduced to a primal need for him.
Puck broke away from Rachel needing to breathe. They both sat there in silence, except for the ragged sounds of their breathing until Puck felt uncomfortable enough to open his mouth and say the first thing that came to mind, "So were you thinking of Finn just now?"
Rachel stared at Noah in shock, "Are you really being this idiotic right now? How could I be thinking of Finn? Your kissing reduced me to a primal level of wanting and needing only you. I dare say had you devoured me with your kisses weeks ago when we were together as you did here a few moments ago; I would not have broken up with you. The fact of the matter as that I would have been too consumed with thoughts of you to even be thinking about Finn," Rachel replied honestly.
"I mean the only reason I broke up with you is because I knew you didn't deserve to be a replacement for Finn, it wasn't fair to you Noah," she told him softly.
Puck captured Rachel's face in his hands and looked deeply into her eyes, "How about we try again? No hidden agendas. No playing second fiddle to anyone else?" he asked her huskily.
