Puck was extremely surprised that she had actually initiated a longer kiss, but he wasn't complaining. He kept it innocent for a little longer before he allowed his tongue to part her lips begging for entry. The two began to make out, the feeling of her tongue running along his definitely sent chills down his spine. God, did he miss her.
He tried to bring her closer, but she had unexpectedly pulled away, her hand automatically covering her mouth, "No…," she breathed and shook her head rapidly as she pulled completely away, slipping out of his arms. "I can't do this, puck. Not with you…" she said, quickly regretting how mean it sounded, but it was the truth.
He looked back at her confused, "what do you mean 'not with' me?" he asked, "I thought we just had a break through…", he added. Quinn stared back at him, unable to look away, she felt like his eyes were piercing through her. As much as she wanted to keep kissing him, she couldn't, it wasn't right. They couldn't work. They tried once and it just didn't go so well, why should she expect any different? "we don't belong together, Puck… we've established that… there will always be someone else that catches your eye… and I refuse to allow myself to get hurt again… " she said honestly.
Puck took in her words, she was right, he had screwed up before, but he was different, especially when it came to her. "Quinn, please… just let me prove it to you.. I can be good for you…you're the only girl I've ever… " he couldn't get the next word out, it was tough for him, especially since he knew she was going to turn him down either way. "Please Quinn… this time it'll be different," he pleaded.
Quinn looked away, tears starting to fill her eyes once again, she wanted to believe him, she did, but she couldn't set herself up for disappointment, not again. She didn't say anything for a few seconds, "you need to go," she said, her voice cracking again and a tear sliding down her cheek.
Puck stared at her in shock ,was she really not going to give him another chance? He was going to respect her demand though, he stood up and looked down at her before exiting her balcony, "all I'm asking for is a second chance, Quinn… you make me happy and I'd be fucking stupid to hurt you again… " he said then walked into her bedroom and made his way out of her house.
Quinn quickly buried her face into her hands, the tears just spewing out now. She loved Puck, she knew she did, but she refused to accept it. She couldn't love someone that thought about sex all the time or that looked at other girls all the time. She wanted him to be the guy he said he'd be, she just didn't believe it would happen. Her body started to ache from crying so much, it took her about an hour to calm down and go inside to curl up into her sheets.
As she laid in her bed, staring through her balcony window out at the stars, a thousand thoughts running through her mind, Puck was in his bed doing the same thing, except he was staring up at his ceiling. He knew he had fucked up majorly the last time they tried, he had been an arrogant horny asshole. But didn't she understand that he wasn't that same guy? He never realized how much he actually loved her, but this time, it would be different. He wanted to be with her, he could see himself being with her for a very long time, but why wouldn't she give him a chance? He wasn't going down without a fight though. What could he do to prove to her that it'd be different this time?
