I don't own glee

please review

'So, here's the room you'd be staying in, if you choose to stay that is, and this is the bathroom, there's a shower head over the bath, I'm afraid the water's a little temperamental but it's usually adequate. The kitchen is, as you've probably noticed, free plan into the living area although it is split…'

Puckerman wasn't really listening; his old roommate had got himself a fiancé and so had kicked him out of his flat and so he had to find someone, anyone, to flat share with him on very short notice. That and nothing else (particularly not the incredible legs and tight body of the lady showing him round) had persuaded him even before he entered that he was going to move in. The apartment was nice and although the girl acted a lot like Monica, from friends, on speed and seemed to be a little too uptight.

'So why you need to flat share in such a hurry?' he asked gazing around, not really aware that he had interrupted what the girl was saying.

'My flat partner moved in with her fiancé and although my wage as understudy is adequate to feed myself and my part-time jobs at the hospital and the Chinese take-away cover my bills it's not really enough to cover the full rent of the flat as well.'

'Wow, you know you could have just said 'I needed the money right'?'

The girl blushed and Puck noticed that she looked very cute…erm sexy, when she did.

'I tend to say too much when I am nervous and I very much need the money, you're the third person this week to see the flat and no-one seems to want it and I am so worried about being evicted and…'

Puck stepped closer & put a finger on the girls lips.

'What's your name babe?' he asked in a low voice.

'Rachel, Rachel Berry,' she replied breathily, the closeness clearly affecting her.

'Well Berry,' he said cheerfully, stepping back 'you don't need to be nervous, I'm definitely taking this apartment, may I move in straight away?'

'Erm, yes, of course,' Rachel replied, obviously flustered, 'should…do you, I mean, do you want a hand?'

A few hours later when all of Noah's stuff had been brought up Rachel was stood over a wok of noodles when she felt strong hands encircling her waist. She turned round to see Noah stood behind her, a thin lair of sweat covering his naked torso.

'Th-the food's nearly done,' she stuttered out.

'Mhmm smells delicious.'

'You don't work at mama chang's for long without learning how to cook Chinese food really well,' she said with an affectionate smile.

'I got enough time to shower?'

'Mhmm,' she says nodding.

'When I get back we should get to know one another,' he said with a suggestive wink as he turned towards the bathroom.

Rachel couldn't understand what is was about this man that made her so…so like a teenager with a crush, she hadn't got this way about a guy since high school, she'd been pretty same sex orientated (much to her dads' delight) for the past 10 years and yet this one man, this one guy who was egotistical, overly sexual and clearly a player had managed to switch her back again. She really needed to get herself a girlfriend.

Puck returned from the shower just as Rachel started putting the food out into the bowls.

'I didn't know whether you used chopsticks or not so I've put you a fork too,' Rachel said awkwardly as he sat down.

'Thanks Berry,' he said picking up his chopsticks, 'so apartment in New York, understudy, in a play I'm assuming…tell me about yourself.'

'Well, my name is Rachel Esther Berry. Esther means star cause that's what my dads want me to be. I'm understudy to Maria in the Broadway revival of West Side Story, a part my fathers have always wanted me to play. I haven't had a relationship since high school, I tended to just hook up with my flatmate, we've been friends for ages, or someone I meet at Henrietta Hudson, erm, I love working at Mama Chang's & I do that everyday after the show & on Fridays & Saturdays all day. I work at the hospital as a paid volunteer Tuesday s, Thursdays & Sundays.'

'Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up. First of dads, I'm guessing gay fathers?'

Rachel nods.

'Okay, cool, and you hooked up with your flatmate? But wasn't she, well a girl?'

Rachel nods again.

'And Henrietta Hudson is a lesbian bar, so you're lesbian…cool. If you don't mind me asking, how do you have time to do ANYTHING? You seem to be constantly working.'

Rachel smiles, 'I've got lots of experience juggling my time and I'm not a full lesbian, I mean I lean that way and that's what I tell people but seen as we're flatmates,' she smiles again, 'I actually like guys too, but don't tell anyone or they'll get all fucked off cause I'm 'greedy' or something.'

Puck swallows, hard. The hot, actress chic who he's sharing an apartment with fucks women but has no problem fucking men too, he already has a hard-on, living here is going to be more problematic than he thought.

Rachel smiles again, 'tell me about you then Noah.'

'Okay, well I'm Noah Aden Puckerman but only mum calls me Noah, everyone calls me puck. Erm, I was a footballer in high school and got a scholarship to college and graduated but with low grades. One of my teachers joked that if the course had been on sleeping around I'd have passed with merit so I decided to become a male escort and that's what I am today. Obviously by the nature of my job I don't date much,' he said smiling.

'Wow,' Rachel said smiling, 'a male escort, how much do you charge?'

'About $500 for standard escort and an additional $500 for 'services', but then, I am one of the best.'

'I bet you are,' Rachel teased, 'maybe one day when I'm bored and have money to burn I can hook up with your expensive ass.'

'I might even let you, on the house of course, since I live in your flat.'

Suddenly they heard the bang of a bird flying into the window, causing them to jump apart. Rachel realised, blushing, how close to one another they had been leaning and jumped up to clear the table.
