Chapter 2
Rachel Berry took and deep breath, preparing herself to be crushed yet again by her secret crush, before putting on a fake smile. She smoothed down her plaid skirt and pink button up, while glancing longingly at the door that connected her room to her real room. She sat down on the pink queen sized bed to pull on her knee high socks and black flats.
I hate wearing these! I wish I could dress like myself at school she thought.
She snagged a brush and roughly pulled it through her hair. Sneering at her makeup free face, she grabbed her books and purse before walking downstairs toward the kitchen. She stopped in the hall way to set her stuff down before rushing into the kitchen. She relaxed when she saw her Dad, Andrew, sitting on the table, his dark brown eyes narrowed in concentration as he studied the legal paper work in front of him.
That's the price of being one of the best lawyers she thought fondly as she grabbed an apple to eat and kissed her Dad's cheek as she sat next to him.
"Where's Daddy?" Rachel asked.
"Upstairs." Her Dad said before glancing at his watch, "He has a conference in New York this week. He and I are going to stay there for a week."
Rachel nodded and watched her dad grab all his things. Andrew leaned over and kissed his daughters cheeks as he walked out. Rachel took one last bite out of her apple before throwing it in the trash. She yelled bye to her dad as she picked up her things by the door and grabbed her Prada sunglasses that were on the table. Rachel walked out to her car that her dad's bought for her sixteenth birthday. It was a silver 2010 Aston Martin BDS. She had been the envy and talked of everyone in the .
Rachel slid into the seat and grinned when the engine purred to life. She plugged in her iPod and pressed play. Instantly Bust your Window boomed through the car's speakers. Rachel smiled and began to sing along. She pulled out of her driveway and drove to school. As William McKinley High came into view, Rachel lowered the volume on her stereo. She found a parking spot and quickly pulled in. She ignored everyone's stares and she walked passed them, she was too used to them to let them bug her anyways. She walked up to her locker and spun her lock around to the right numbers.
Seven, twenty-one, three. She thought as she spun the dial.
The lock popped open and she grabbed her books for English and Math. Before she could close it though, a body leaned against the locker next to her. Rachel tinced when she saw who it was. She decided to ignore him until her went away but to her surprise he opened his mouth to say something.
"Hey, Berry." Noah "Puck" Puckerman said.
"Puckerman, what do you want?" Rachel asked a little more coldly then she wanted to.
She internally winced when she saw his hurt look. I'm so sorry Noah! She thought.
Before she could say sorry, he turned and walked away. Good going Berry! She thought. The one time he talks to you, you act like a bitch.
The bell rang, signaling the last minute before class started. Rachel hurried to her math class and decided to put the Noah incident in the back of her mind.
Noah sighed. He could still smell Berry's scent, which almost immediantly had caused a problem for him that he had trouble hiding. This made him surprised because it had never happened that fast.
Geez, if I get hard talking to her, now am i supposed to do anything around her? He wondered.
Noah closed his eyes and blocked out his chemist teacher's voice. He put his head on his desk and as his mind wondered, brown eyes flashed in front of his. He could practically hear Rachel's reaction to him sleeping in class.
"Noah, you can't fall asleep in class! How are you going to graduate?" Rachel's voice was filled with love and support, at least in his mind.
He sighed once more before lifting his head off the desk. It had been a long day and all he wanted was to go to glee so he could watch his Rachel.
As long as she doesn't sing another love song with Finn. I mean he doesn't sound as good as her. He thought jealously.
The bell rang, saving an imaginary Finn from getting beaten up by and imaginary Puck. Noah got up and strolled out of class, a small smirk on his face which caused many girls to stop and stare at him in lust. He easily ignored them, to use to their stares for them to bother him. He wasn't surprised to see that he was one of the last ones that walked into glee. His gaze instantly zeroed in on Rachel, who was talking to Mercedes, a chill dark skinned girl with a badass attitude, and Kurt, the proud gay. They were smiling and laughing at something Kurt was saying. Finn was in the corner with Quinn, though Puck could see him throwing glances at Rachel ever now and then. Matt and Mike, two junior football players, were entertaining Santana and Brittany, two Cheerios and lovers. Puck walked in and sat two seats behind Rachel. He let her voice wash over him as he closed his eyes.
"So when are you going to tell her?" an annoyingly high male voice asked.
"What? Tell who?" Puck asked, deciding to play stupid when he opened his eyes to look at Kust who had left Rachel and Mercedes.
Kurt just smiled and raised his eyebrow. Puck sighed, annoyed that Kurt had figured out who his crush was.
"Look, it ain't gonna happen so drop it." Puck snapped.
Kurt shook his head. "You'd be surprised."
With that Kurt turned and went back to Mercedes and Rachel, leaving Puck sitting there gaping at him. Kurt's words raced though his head.
I might have a chance! He thought excitedly.
He turned his attention back to Rachel. Her face was animated as she talked and laughed. She flipped her hair over her shoulder, causing it to fall in soft waves down her back. Before Puck could stare any longer, Mr. Shue walked in waving a bunch of papers.
"Ok guys, I have the perfect duet!" Mr. Shue said a big grin on his face.
Puck froze and threw a glance at Rachel, whose back had stiffened. He sighed and resigned to his fate. After all, Finn and Rachel were the ones who did duets. He unconsciously held his breath, hoping it wasn't a love song.
Please don't be a love song he thought desperately.
"I know we usually do older songs but I wanted to try something else." Mr. Shue said as he handed out the music sheet, unaware of Puck's thoughts.
Puck froze when he saw the title on the song. He froze and sent a glare at Mr. Shue and Finn. The title read Crush by David Archuleta.
