'Noah? Noah, open the door right now! You can't be asleep still it's almost ten thirty... we have to go Noah come on please... pleeease' Rachel Berry and Noah Puckerman had been living two apartments away from each other for seven years now, they had become closer friends than they had ever been before and they barely spent a day away from each other. Rachel could hear him stumbling through the apartment to the door and impatiently waited for him to open it. Finally the door was open.

'Rach, I love you baby but instead of waking me and probably half the neighbours up with your shouting, why didn't you just use your key?' Puck was yawning as he said these words; he still looked so tired still and Rachel was wondering what time he went to sleep last night, he knew they had an early start today, it was all on her schedule and he was messing it all up. She walked into the apartment and straight to the kitchen, she placed the box of doughnuts and coffee that she had bought on the coffee table and sat down on the small armchair next to it. 'I didn't want to just walk in... Who knows who you might have had in here?' Although Puck had not been in a relationship for at least two years, she had some idea planted in her head that he had a different girl there every other night.

Puck grabbed a doughnut and shoved it into his mouth, clearly he was hungry. 'For the 100th time berry there was nobody here last night, just me. You were ringing me every 20 minutes anyway, how would I have had somebody else here huh?' Rachel thought about it, he was right... she was on the phone to him constantly last night discussing plans for the next day, now she could see why he was still in bed by the time she got there. 'Exactly. So you should have been ready already! We have to leave for Ohio in an hour.' 'GET READY!' Puck laughed at her bossiness, she had always been the one to arrange things and make sure everything went according to plan; he knew that if he didn't get ready now she would have a hissy fit and go home. 'ok Rach, chill. I'll get dressed now.'

Rachel always knew he was handsome; he even looked great just after he got out of bed, he was wearing boxer shorts and a vest; she knew that he had thrown the vest on before answering the door because he only ever slept in his boxers. She knew that purely because of the amount of times she had let herself into the apartment without him knowing whilst he was asleep; he was adorable when he was asleep. She watched as he came out of the bathroom wearing jeans and a black t-shirt. 'Nice look Puckerman!' He did look nice too; obviously he was going to be the most attractive guy at the Mckinley High reunion. 'You don't look too bad yourself Berry! Not trying to impress anybody are we?' he said it with a sarcastic tone in his voice, he knew that she was worried about seeing Finn, he wondered if Jesse would be there too... he always popped up at inconvenient times, and he didn't live too far away from him and Rach now either, he met with him for coffee a few months back and warned Jesse away from Rachel, he was close to her and didn't want Jesse St James hanging around her, no matter how badass he was now. 'No, of course not! I do kind of want to show off the new Rachel Berry though' Rachel was proud of the way she looked, she had lost her baby fat and had grown into a very attractive woman, her childish dress sence was also gone, she had a new Fashion Icon in the form of Blair Waldorf and now dressed like a very elegant, very well presented young woman.

Puck put on his jacket and picked up both his and Rachel's cup of coffee. 'Are you actually ready to go Noah Puckerman?' the sarcasm and shock in her voice made him laugh. 'Miss Rachel Berry I am, ready to leave. Let's go to Ohio. A lot of excitement burst out through Rachel's smile, she was his best friend and as much as she irritated the hell out of him most the time, he loved how adorable she was. They both left the apartment and jumped into Noah's car, it was going to be a long journey but they had CD's, magazines, coffee... it was going to be a great trip.
