So, this is a story between Puck and Elix Risqué. If you have no idea who Elix Risqué is, he's a gay American pop singer, but this version of him is completely fictional. I'm just using his name, appearance, and singing voice. I am in no way claiming that this is his actual personality. Now that we have that disclaimer out of the way, thanks for checking out my story! This takes place during season two (their junior year). I was listening to a new Elix Risqué cover called "Beautiful People" and for some reason I just imagined Elix singing it to Puck (my mind is extremely random at times). So, anyway that's how this fic came about. I would suggest going on YouTube and searching "Elix Risqué Beautiful People" because it's an amazing cover! This is a song fic because I love music and it's Glee, so many songs will be utilized! In this story Lima is a bit different. Sexual orientation really doesn't matter to people. Many people are going to be bi at the very least. People in Glee are still disliked unless they're involved with sports or are on the Cheerios. So being in Glee or being "nerdy" are the only reasons people get bullied in this story. I hope you enjoy! Main pairing: Puck/Elix Other pairings: Finn/Rachel, Mike/Tina, Brittany/Santana, Kurt/Blaine, Mercedes/Sam Warnings: Strong language, innuendos, sex in later chapters, possible MPreg later.
He was head cheerleader at his old high school, so he knew that this audition would be easier than anything. He had the confidence, flexibility, and voice that every cheerleading coach looked for. Plus the fact that he had won every cheerleading competition he had attended. Yeah, he had this audition in the bag. He didn't even flinch when he heard a gruff voice yell, "Next!" A girl ran out of the gym crying her eyes out.
"Coach Sylvester's a monster! She told me if I weighed any more, I would have broken the floor!" the poor girl yelled in distress, covering her face in her hands.
"Look at me," Elix said softly, pulling the girl's hands from her face and making her look him in the eyes. "You are not overweight. You are gorgeous. You have awesome hair, great skin, and your eyes are really pretty. Especially when you cry," he added jokingly.
The girl blushed, but smiled appreciatively. "Thank you. You're really pretty too, even for a guy," she said sincerely. "How did you get that body?"
Elix smiled. "One-third diet, one-third exercise, and one-third good genes."
The girl laughed and nodded. "Well, it works! Thank you for what you said. It really brightened my day."
"No problem. It's the truth, and I like to make people smile," Elix said, giving the girl a hug.
"Well, good luck on your audition. I guess I'll see you around," she said, smiling and walking off proudly, thanks to Elix's kind words. Elix smiled, pulled his slightly-longer-than-shoulder-length blonde hair into a ponytail, and walked into the gym, excited to start cheerleading again.
Elix stopped in front of the table in the middle of the gym and turned to face the woman in the middle and the two girls to each side of her. "I'm Coach Sue Sylvester. To my left is Becky Jackson and to my right is Santana Lopez. They'll be your co-captains," Coach Sylvester said with a slight sneer as she scribbled something on her notepad. When she stopped, she looked up and glared at the blonde in front of her. She looked from his perfectly white tennis shoes to his light purple booty shorts and matching tank top, then his crystal-clear blue eyes. She appreciated his smooth, tanned skin, good hair, and great body. She had made sure she wrote "No fatties!" on the sign-up sheet at least six times. She wrote a bit more on her notepad, then took her glasses off and glared at Elix again. "What's your name and why are you here?"
"My name is Elix Risqué and I'm here to join the Cheerios," Elix said, smiling sweetly but with a look in his eyes that let the other three know he was dead-serious. The Latina girl started cracking up.
"Wait, your last name is Risqué? Like, for real?" she asked. When Elix nodded, she started laughing harder. "That's so badass! We should let him join just for that!"
"Quiet, Sandbags," Coach Sylvester sneered, not taking her gaze off of Elix. The blonde was not afraid of her and it was both admirable and irritating. "Are you new this year, Goldilocks?"
"Yes, Coach. I just moved from Vegas over the summer," Elix replied, still smiling.
That explained it. He hadn't seen Sue in action. "So, you really think your audition will get you on the Cheerios?" Coach Sylvester asked icily.
"No, I don't think it will," Elix replied calmly, surprising the three females at the table. 'He lacks confidence. He won't last five minutes on this squad,' Coach Sylvester thought to herself, smiling smugly. Then Elix finished, "I know it will." Once again, Santana started laughing.
"I like this guy," she said between laughs.
"Quiet, Sandbags," Sylvester said again, as if by reflex, eyes narrowing even more. "So, what song are you going to 'amaze' us with?" she asked, using air quotes.
"Madonna's 'Give Me All Your Luvin,'" the blonde replied simply, handing Becky a CD he retrieved from the bag he brought with him. He surprised the women by not only dancing tirelessly throughout the entire song, but singing as he did so.
L-U-V, Madonna I see you coming and I don't wanna know your name Don't play the stupid game L-U-V Madonna Don't play the stupid game Give me all your love boy You have all the L-U-V Move, it! Licks. I'm some swag shit (swag) Don't play the stupid game
Y-O-U, you wanna?
I see you coming and you're gonna have to change your game
Would you like to try
Give me a reason why
Give me all that you've got
Maybe you'll do fine
As long as you don't lie to me
And pretend to be what you're not
'Cause I'm a different kind of girl
Every record sounds the same

In another place, at a different time
You can be my lucky star
We can drink some wine
Burgundy is fine
Let's drink the bottle every drop
'Cause I'm a different kind of girl

You can be my boy, you can be my boy toy
In the nick of time, I can say a sicker rhyme
Cause it's time for change, like a nickel or a dime
I'm Roman, I'm a barbarian, I'm Conan
You was sleeping on me, you were dozing
Now move, I'm going in
I gave you everything you need (now move!)
Now it's up to Y-O-U
Are you the one, shall we proceed?

Let's forget about time
And dance our lives away
"Okay, here are three for now. You have to wear your uniform every day. You may as well throw out all of your other clothes and hope you don't get kicked off the squad. Which I highly doubt will happen since your try-out was badass!" the Latina girl said excitedly, high-fiving Elix.
"Thanks, Santana! I've been cheerleading for a really long time, so it just sort of comes naturally."
Santana nodded her understanding, and then looked around to make sure nobody was around before closing the door. "Ok, I'm going to ask you something, but you have to promise it doesn't leave this room, because Coach Sue would kill me if she knew I asked you this."
Elix looked at her suspiciously before nodding. "Okay, sure. What do you need to ask me?"
Santana took a deep breath before speaking. "Ok, well, first of all, know that I rarely give compliments, so this is like a really big deal. Anyway, you have an awesome singing voice and the way you can sing and dance without getting tired is amazing. Well, we really need people in Glee, so I was hoping that maybe you would think about auditioning," she said in one breath, smiling hopefully when she finished.
Elix hesitated before answering. "I don't know, Santana. Aren't the Glee people here kind of looked down upon? I'm already new, so I don't want to give people any reason to harass me."
Santana rolled her eyes. "Oh, please. More than half the guys here wanna bang you, and those are just the ones that have met you so far. You won't have any problems with harassment. Besides, people don't really care if you're in Glee if you're also involved in sports or the Cheerios. My girlfriend, Brittany is in Glee and the Cheerios, and so is Quinn. Plus, Finn, Artie, Puck, and Mike are on the football team as well as Glee, so even if someone gives you trouble, you've got a lot of strong people on your side."
Elix considered this for a moment, then took a deep breath and smiled at Santana. "Alright, I'll do it."
Santana's eyes lit up and she pulled Elix into a tight hug. "Yay! I'm so excited! Ok, so prepare a song that showcases your voice and meet me at the gym after your last class, then I'll take you to the choir room so you can audition. We may actually go to Nationals this year with your help!"
Elix smiled back and nodded, his mind racing. 'What song am I going to do? I don't know what songs make me sound good!' He took the uniforms from the Latina and exchanged numbers with her before giving her a hug and heading for his car, scrolling through his iPod to find a suitable song for his audition.

The next day couldn't end fast enough. It seemed that wearing a Cheerios uniform just made guys want to surround you even more. Elix would be lying if he said he wasn't flattered by the attention, but he was really getting tired of saying "No" (or in some cases "Hell no") to the constant requests for bathroom hook-ups or backseat quickies. Seriously, did nobody believe in romance anymore? Besides, most of these guys really weren't Elix's type anyway. He preferred guys with a kind of edginess to them. Bad boy on the outside, with a soft romantic center. Sure, some of these dudes were cute, but Elix couldn't picture himself having a relationship with any of them. He doubted any of them wanted a relationship anyway.
His last class seemed to be dragging on. The teacher left the last fifteen minutes of class for everyone to socialize since it was a Friday and as soon as she stopped talking, some creepy kid with a horrible afro (Elix knew his name was Jacob Israel or some shit like that, but he had a Jew 'fro, so Elix decided to call him Jewfro in his head) had moved next to him and started to ask him a bunch of weird questions.
"So are you naturally blonde? I bet so, because it's so perfect. That Cheerios uniform looks really good on you. You have great arms, and legs, and a really good butt too. Would you wanna go to Breadstix with me sometime? We could go to my house afterwards. My mom might be there, but I can lock her in the basement, so we'd have the whole place to ourselves. Then we could…"
"Jacob, right?" Elix said, getting tired of the boy's inappropriate questions.
"Wow, you remember my name. I think I'm in love with you."
"Listen, Jacob. You're a…nice guy, I guess. Sorry, but you're just not my type. There's somebody out there for you, but it's not me," he said, trying to spare Jewfro's feelings, but getting really fed up with him at the same time.
"I get it, I came on too strong," Jewfro replied. "I'll prove to you that I'll sweep you off your feet. Then we'll get married. By the way, what kind of underwear do you wear? It's for the 'Muckraker.'"
Luckily, the bell rang signaling the end of class, so Elix was saved from slapping the boy at his personal questions. He got up and quickly left the room, ignoring Jewfro declaring his love behind him. He walked hurriedly towards the gym, ignoring the stares and wolf-whistles directed at him. When he finally got there, he noticed Santana holding hands (well, "holding pinkies" is a more appropriate term) with a pretty blonde girl, also wearing a Cheerios uniform. Santana smiled as she saw Elix approach.
"Hey, Goldilocks. Are you ready for your audition?" she asked, grinning broadly.
Elix nodded and smiled back. "Yeah, I think so."
"By the way, Elix, this is my girlfriend, Brittany. Brittany, this is Elix. He joined the Cheerios yesterday and I convinced him to audition for Glee because his voice is kick-ass!" Santana said excitedly.
"You're really pretty. Are you a dolphin?" Brittany asked, smiling slightly.
"That's her way of asking if you're gay," Santana explained, noticing Elix's confused look.
"Oh ok. Then yeah, I'm a dolphin," Elix said, laughing slightly.
"He and Puck would make really cute gay-babies," Brittany added distantly, mainly to herself.
"Brittany, you can't tell people who to have babies with. They have to figure it out themselves," Santana said. It was clearly not the first time they'd had this conversation. "But you're right. Their gay-babies would be pretty cute," she added.
"Anyway," Elix said, suddenly feeling awkward. "Should we get going? I'm getting kinda tired of the creepers leering at us." Santana nodded before grabbing Elix's hand and heading for the choir room, talking to Brittany the whole way.

"Yo, Schuester! I got good news for you," Santana said loudly, startling nearly everybody in the room.
"What is it, Santana, and can you please speak at a respectable volume?" Mr. Schuester asked, clearly annoyed.
"This is Elix. He's auditioning today," Santana pointed to the blonde behind her.
Elix ignored the guys that were staring at him when a girl with dark hair suddenly said, "Mr. Schuester, if I may interject, wouldn't it be a bad idea to add another Cheerio to the group? There are already so many in here, plus many football players. Wouldn't it cause some scheduling conflicts? What if a cheerleading competition falls on the same day as Sectionals?"
Santana looked like she was ready to explode. "Listen, Hobbit. Nobody asked your opinion. You already sent someone to a crack house because you were scared she would get more solos than you. If you scare Elix off, I will not hesitate to go all Lima Heights Adjacent on your ass," the Latina growled, pointing at the girl for emphasis.
"Calm down, Ms. Lopez," Schuester warned before continuing. "But, in a sense, Santana's right, Rachel. We need more people. We need to make this group as big as possible if we want to make it to Nationals. Plus, it would kind of cool if we had four Cheerios and four football players. It could make for great choreography. Anyway, we'd love for you to audition, Elix. What do you have prepared?" the teacher asked, smiling warmly at Elix.
The blonde smiled back before answering, "I was thinking of 'People Like Us' by Kelly Clarkson."
"Sounds great! Let's hear it," Mr. Schuester said before sitting on a stool to the side of the performance area.
Elix stood in the middle of the room and looked up. He automatically locked eyes with the boy sitting directly in front of him. There was a spark; it was like a magnetic attraction. The boy had "trouble" written all over him. He had a Mohawk, deep, soulful brown eyes, and pouty lips that Elix couldn't help but stare at. He definitely wanted to get to know this guy better, and based on the look he was receiving, Mohawk felt the same way. He was snapped back into reality when the music started and he started singing.
Hey, everybody loses it
Everybody wants to throw it all away sometimes
And hey, yeah I know what you're going through
Don't let it get the best of you, you'll make it out alive

So throw your fists in the air, come out, come out if you dare
Tonight we're gonna change forever

Hobbit was quick to speak up. "Actually, Mr. Schuester, wouldn't it be fairer to vote on whether or not Elix can join so that everybody's voice gets heard?"
"Shut up, Rachel!" the room chorused. Elix couldn't help but smile at (almost) everyone's enthusiasm to him being there. He took a seat next to Santana and beamed for the rest of the class. He could feel a pair of eyes on him, but he knew they were Mohawk's and he wanted to tease the other boy a bit more. When Schuester dismissed them, he walked out with Santana and Brittany, adding more of a swish to hips, knowing that Mohawk's eyes were following his every move.

That guy had to be new. That was Puck's only explanation as to how he didn't have that hot piece of ass on his speed-dial. He needed to introduce himself ASAP so some other meathead wouldn't claim him first. He was ninety-nine percent sure that Elix was a virgin and that thought turned him on even more than the fact that Elix was a Cheerio. As soon as Glee was over, he followed Elix at a distance until the blonde stopped at his locker after saying goodbye to Santana and Brittany. He slowly walked up to the blonde, who didn't even realize he was there.
"I never got to introduce myself before. Noah Puckerman, McKinley's own Bisexual Badass at your service," he said, doing a fake bow and smirking seductively at the Cheerio.
Elix laughed. "Oh, so you're Puck?" he said with his own smirk, eyeing the taller boy up and down.
Puck was shocked. "So you already know who I am, huh?" he asked, curious what the new guy knew about him.
"Your name may have come up in a conversation. Don't worry, it was positive," Elix responded, continuing to smirk. Damn, his voice was sexy. Puck could feel his dick twitch a bit.
"Well, I was wondering if you'd want to go hang out in my truck, and maybe you can tell me what you heard about me," he said, giving Elix a signature wink.
"Well, as romantic as that sounds, I don't put out that easily. I prefer when it's more meaningful. If you want this…" he motioned to his body, "…then you're going to have to put some effort into it. Impress me." He got closer to Puck and whispered in his ear. "Being monogamous is a good place to start," he said, before walking off with a strut that would even rival Kurt's.
'Damn, what am I getting myself into?' he thought as he watched Elix walk away. Then he reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, calling the one person he knew that was an expert on old-fashioned romance: Finn Hudson.
"Dude, school just got out. What do you want?" Finn joked as he answered the phone.
"Shut up, bro. I need some advice," Puck said.
"Ok…what do you need advice for?" Finn asked, clearly suspicious.
"Well, there's this guy and he's a total prude, but I wanna tap that soooo bad. He said I have to be romantic, whatever the fuck that means. I know that Rachel's into that romantic shit too, so I figured you'd have experience in that area," Puck finished, making sure nobody was around to hear the conversation.
"It's Elix, isn't it?" Finn asked, and Puck could tell he was amused.
"Fuck you," Puck said, laughing a bit. "Are you gonna help me or not?"
Sure, bro. Go ahead and come over," Finn said, still laughing slightly.
"Cool, be there in a sec," Puck said before hanging up. He headed to his truck thinking, 'This will be so worth it.'
