He didn't expect to see her at a party like this.
She seemed to be the kind of girl whose idea of a good time consisted of something much more classy then cheap beer out of a keg and silent prayers that the cops didn't show up to bust up the party prematurely.
However there she was heading toward him from across the room waving in an idiotic yet rather endearing way.
"Hey," she squealed as she made her approach.
Looking over at her with an inquisitive gaze he simply shook his head.
"Did I miss the Social Science Assignment where we are supposed to do something out of our comfort zone or something."
Letting out a slight laugh the young brunette shook her head.
"No… anyways Puck since when is it a crime to go to a party."
"It's not, it's just I didn't think a party like this was your scene Rachael."
"And since when do you know what my scene is."
She gave him a taunting glance while he mentally thought to himself 'touché' while watching her size up the place obviously feeling like the same fish out of water that she had looked like.
"So, do you come to parties like this often," she said breaking the silence of his thoughts.
He nodded as he watched her reaching for a red plastic cup filled with a particular amber colored liquid while he did the same.
"Cheers," she said as she held the class up to her pale pink lips.
"Cheers," he said smiling at her watching her make a face as she took a sip. It was defiantly apparent that she had never drank anything stronger then the occasional glass of wine before, not that they were legal or anything because they were definitely under the Ohio state drinking age.

"Hey Puck guess what," she spoke hours later while she sat next to him on the couch of the slowly empting rave. She was slurring as she was buzzed and the young man knew that whatever she said should be taken with a grain of salt as her mind was obviously clouded.
"What," he said, "and if you say Chicken But…"
"Chicken But…ha that's funny but know, guess what."
"What."
"I'm going to be a great film star! That is, if booze and sex don't get me first."
He flashed her a smile. If the way she performed in the Glee Club was any indication of what was to come then he had no doubt in his mind that she would become a famous actress and he could say he knew her when.
"I have no doubt in my mind that your going to be a star some day Rach, but your going to have to stay away from these parties."
"Cause of the booze and sex."
He nodded.
"Cause of the booze and sex," he replied as she looked at him.
"But what if I can't stay away because I.."
"Because you."
Rachael let a devious smile as she held up her hand and reached for his face.
She began to gently caress his cheek while she flashed a dreamy look over at him.
He kind of expected what was to happen next although he kind of would of enjoyed it better if she were in a clear state of mind.
He let her lean over and kiss his lips without protest although he was sure she would blast him for allowing this to happen as soon as she became sober.
"I love you," she whispered to him softly.
"I love you too," he whispered to her back as he picked up his phone to call her a cab.
