Hey guys! Here is my brand new story. This has nothing to do with "First date Jitters" or "Who Gives this Bride Away?" This takes place right before Mash-Up and I am changing the outcome. Also NO Puck/Quinn Or Rachel/Finn.

Disclaimer: I own nothing, none of these characters are mine


Puck was leaning against his locker talking to Mike when they saw her. They both shook their heads as Rachel went by them covered in orange slush. Even though Puck had made it clear to the rest of the football team that slushy days were over. The rest of the jocks of the school had not seemed to have gotten the message.

"Dude, it has to suck having to change outfits all the time" Mike pointed out grabbing his math book.

"Especially if the outfits look like that" Puck replied smirking.

Mike let out a snort closing his locker shut, "Yeah, well I still feel bad for her. I mean this has been happening everyday to her since freshmen year."

Puck shrugged, "it's her own fault."

"How so?"

"Dude, if she did not dress like a grandmother and use words that made your head hurt all the time, the guys would lay off her. She is making herself a target."

Mike shook his head as they headed to class, "I doubt it. I mean Rachel was being picked on the first day of high school. Before anyone knew she walked and talked like a crazy. I don't think it would matter."

"Wanna bet?"

Mike and stared at Puck who had the Puckerman smirk. He raised his eyebrows "What?"

Puck grinned even more "I bet that I can get the slushies to stop altogether by turning Berry into a human. Dress normally and talk normally. And when I do, the hockey team and basketball team will back off."

"How do you think you will manage that? She would not allow you within three feet of her wardrobe."

"Easy. I will become her boyfriend." Puck answered shrugging.

"Dude!" Mike exclaimed his eyebrow shooting up to his hairline.

"How else do you expect me to get close enough to Berry? I will fluster her will all the Puckerman charm. Give me two weeks and I will have her eating out of the palm of my hand. Trust me I will have Berry human before you know it."

Mike shook his head grinning, "You're on. But there is no way Rachel will go out with you. She hates you. Besides even if you DO manage it, the slushies won't stop."

"Hundred bucks" Puck told him, holding out his hand.

Mike took his hand, "deal."


Rachel was putting away her books in her locker; she had not had time to take a shower before class. So she had to settle for just changing her clothes and she still felt sticky all over. Her hair was pulled back into a braid but she could feel the slush dripping of the ends. "Stupid jocks…"She muttered "who can not think of anything more original than throwing sticky ice. Humph, see if I mention anyone from Mckinley High in my Tony acceptance speech."

"Talking to yourself, Berry." Came the voice of the one jock that up until a few weeks made it his personal mission to make her life hell. Sighing she turned around. Puck was leaning against the locker next to hers grinning. "You know that's a bad sign. Means you have officially lost it."

"Yes, Noah. Can I help you?" She asked in her coldest voice.

"Wow, someone is in a bad mood."

She slammed her locker shut, "I can not imagine why. I am just cold and sticky, with another set of clothes that I will have to get dry cleaned today. Do you know how much of my savings goes into my dry cleaning bills? Plus I am now late for Science again, which means detention."

"Detention? I am impressed Berry"

She glared at him as she walked away, " I will be in detention because this is the second time in a row I have been late to class because of miscreants like yourself have decided that I am need slushy bath. Which I might add, you started."

Puck hurried after her as he grabbed her arm, she turned surprise. "Look Ber….Rachel, I am sorry about starting the whole slushy thing. How about I make it up to you?"

Rachel could feel her eyes widened in surprise "excuse me?"

"Let me take you to dinner tonight. Its my way of saying sorry." He grinned at her as her mouth dropped open. This was going to be easier than he thought.

Rachel looked around "Who are you and what have you done with Noah Puckerman?" She asked suspiciously.

He laughed "is that a yes?" He asked, his eyes twinkling causing butterflies to erupt in Rachel's stomach. She chalked it up to the wilted salad she ate at lunch.

"Actually I am wondering if I should drive you to the hospital apparently you must have received a concussion at your last game. But just for the record, there is no way I would ever go out with you." Turning she stalked down the hall towards her science class.

Puck rubbed his head, ok this might take a little bit longer than he expected. He had never had a girl turn him down before. He was expecting a blush, then a quick mumbling of a yes. He was not really sure what do now.

He narrowed his eyes, he had never lost a bet before and he was not about to start now. He would just have up the Puckerman charm. Starting in Glee club. Grinning as an idea came to his head, he ran to the music room blowing off second period.

Rachel was still in shock as she walked into science class, not even hearing Mr. Rowe announce her tardiness and therefore would spending the afternoon in detention. Why in the world would Noah Puckerman ask her out? She would bet her entire future awards that he had never apologized for anything in his life. He must be up to something, she concluded. Hoping to pull off some new form of torture. Well, it did not matter because Rachel Berry was as smart as she was talented and there was no way she was falling for it. No matter how green his eyes were or how many bulging muscles he had.
