High School Never Ends
Summary: PucKurt. For Noah Puckerman and Kurt Hummel, their 5th year High School reunion is awaiting them. It's also been 5 years since they broke up. But don't worry, they've both moved on. Haven't they? Yes, definitely. Probably. Maybe. Actually, maybe not. Wait, DEFINITELY not. Because some things never end.
Prologue
It started with an invitation to the McKinley High School fifth year reunion for the class of 2012. Wait, no, that's wrong. That's completely wrong. It started a long time before that. It started when… huh, when did it start?
Well, it was definitely over five years ago. It was before they won Nationals in their Graduation year. Actually, it was before they lost at Nationals the year before they won. In fact it was even before they lost out to Vocal Adrenaline at their first Regionals competition.
It started before the Glee Club tried to get 'funky'. It started before Finn used the 'f' word down in the basement. Before Mr. Schue even assigned Lady Gaga week. Before that blissful week when Rachel got laryngitis thereby granting other members of the club the opportunity to sing. It was before Madonna week and before they had their set list stolen at Sectionals.
It was before they made the 'mattress' advert and before Rachel had a disturbing and thankfully brief crush on Mr. William Schuester. It was before wheelchairs and cupcakes and the 'Defying Gravity' diva-off that Kurt Hummel would have totally won had he not deliberately thrown the High F.
It was before Cabaret and April Rhodes and Vitamin D. It was before Kurt joined the football team and taught them the 'Single Ladies' routine. It was before 'Don't Stop Believing' and 'Sit down We're Rocking the Boat'. Believe it or not, it was even before Mr. Schue took over the Glee Club.
What started before all that you might wonder? Well, duh, only like the greatest love story ever (because Romeo and Juliet are totally overrated, no disrespect Mr. S, you totally rocked that weird little beard). It wasn't a perfect love story of course. But then real love stories shouldn't be perfect. Perfection is also overrated by the way, and not to mention unattainable. There are a lot of people living on the planet, all with differences of opinion. Nobody can possibly be so perfect that they're able to please every single person, it's just not possible.
But this story isn't about perfection or opinions. This is about two very different but incredibly gorgeous boys, Kurt Hummel and Noah Puckerman.
