Rachel hadn't seen or talked to Puck since last night but she didn't care about that right now. She smiled and grabbed her duffel bag from the back seat of her dad's car.
"Have fun, sweetie." Her dad kissed her cheek before she jumped out of the car.
"I will, Dad." Her smile grew. "I'll call you tomorrow so you can pick me up." She ran up the sidewalk and knocked on the door. She waved back to her dad as he pulled away and her smile faltered when she turned back to see Finn opening the door.
"Rachel?" Finn looked surprised but that wasn't uncommon for Finn. "What are you doing here?"
"Not for you, if that's what you're thinking." Kurt stepped in front of him and pulled Rachel into the house. "She's here for my slumber party, remember?"
"Right." Finn said. "Just keep the crap downstairs, okay? Me and the guys are hanging out up here and we don't want you girls messing with us."
"Don't drag the rest of us into this." Mike frowned looking over at Finn. "I don't mind if the girls stay up here."
"Me either." Sam added.
"We'll be downstairs." Kurt pulled Rachel towards his room.
"Finally!" Mercedes smiled. "We have been waiting for you to get her for almost an hour."
"The invite said seven. It's barely fifteen till." Rachel countered.
"Chill, Berry." Mercedes laughed. "I wasn't being mean."
"It's kind of hard to tell." She told them. "I don't think you've ever said one nice thing to me."
"Tonight that is going to change." Kurt said. "This is you first sleep over and we're going to make this the best night of your life." He gripped Rachel's shoulder.
"You need to change into your pajamas." Tina pointed out. "The bathroom is upstairs. Finn can point it out when you get up there."
"Okay." Rachel took a deep breath before sifting through her bag to find her pajamas and trudging back up the stairs.
She frowned when she saw Sam and Finn staring intently at the TV screen as they played what she figured was Halo or some other dumb Xbox game.
"Where's the bathroom?" She asked loudly but Finn didn't seem to notice her.
"Down that hall, Rach." Mike pointed it out. "Last door on the right."
"Thanks, Mike." She sighed. It looked like Finn was back to pretending she doesn't exist.
She frowned when she saw that the bathroom didn't have a lock on it but she didn't think too much into it. She had already changed and was brushing through her hair in front of the mirror when she heard the doorknob turn quickly. She was about to yell that it was occupied but when she saw Puck slip inside she shifted uncomfortably in front of him.
"Noah." She acknowledged him.
"Shut up." He smirked and backed her against the counter to take her mouth roughly with his own. "I've wanted to do this since last night." He said huskily, pressing her back against the counter hard with his hips. "Have you been thinking about this, Rachel?" He asked.
"Noah." Her eyes fluttered shut. "Kiss me."
Puck chuckled and kissed her again, this time letting his mouth travel down her jaw and lick down her throat. "So hot." He smirked against her collar bone, trailing his lips down to the edge of her shirt.
His fingers dug into her hips as he rocked against her. "Noah!" She gasped.
"You have to be quiet, Rach." He whispered.
"I'm trying." She replied rocking back against him and it was his turn to moan.
"Berry." He buried his face in her neck and slipped his hand into the waistband of her pajama shorts. "We have to be quick."
"Stop." She told him suddenly. "We can't do this. Not here."
"Berry." He groaned when she pushed him back.
"This is Finn's house. You're his friend and I refuse to do this in his house if he doesn't know about us." Rachel shook her head trying to clear her thoughts.
"You're the one that didn't want Hudson knowing. Besides, he's your ex, Rach, since when does he have a say in who you do anything with?" Puck questioned.
"I'm not saying I want Finn to know about our little… arrangement but… I can't do this with you with him in the other room. It's… it feels dirty, Noah."
"Oh, grow up, Berry. We're fooling around behind everyone's backs. This whole thing is dirty!" He shook his head.
"You are so infuriating." She shot back and yanked the bathroom door open to find Tina with her hand raised about to knock. "Tina!" Rachel gasped.
Tina stared wide-eyed at Rachel and then looked over the brunettes shoulder to see Puck standing awkwardly behind her. "I-I didn't hear anything." Tina stammered.
"We weren't doing anything." Rachel said but then frowned knowing she sounded guilty.
"Just can it, Berry." Puck rolled his eyes. "It's obvious what we were doing in here."
"It is?" Rachel
"Yea." He said as if it were right in front of their faces. "Rach was helping me find a towel. Your clumsy boyfriend spilt something and I came to get something to clean up."
"Right." Rachel nodded and reached for a towel. "Here you are." She handed it to him.
"Thanks." He smiled awkwardly before brushing past Tina and back into the living room.
"Tina." Rachel sighed and stepped out of the bathroom.
"I didn't hear anything." Tina raised her eyebrows. "You were just looking for a towel."
"Thanks." Rachel said gratefully knowing Tina didn't buy the story Puck had fed her for a second.
"For what?" Tina asked leading Rachel into the kitchen.
"Just… thanks." Rachel smiled leaning back against the counter and then tensed when Mike and Puck joined them in the kitchen.
"I haven't seen you all night." Mike wrapped his arms around Tina's waist and kissed her cheek.
"Cut it out, Chang. I think my eyes are starting to bleed." Puck griped.
"You're just jealous because you don't have a hot little body to fool around with." Mike countered and Tina snorted. "What was that?" Mike asked his girlfriend.
"Nothing." She tried to look innocent.
"Tina, I think we should go back downstairs before Kurt sends out a search and rescue for us." Rachel said quickly.
"Right." She smiled. "Kurt sent me up here to get some chips. I think they're in the top cabinet."
"I'll get them." Rachel stood up on her toes and stretched for the bag that was just out of her reach. She jumped a little and successfully grabbed the bag. "Ha! Got it." She smiled proudly.
"Dude?" Mike elbowed Puck but Tina and Rachel didn't seem to notice.
"Goodnight, boys." Tina smiled kissing Mike's cheek and leading Rachel back down the stairs.
"What was that for?" Puck asked rubbing his side.
"You were totally just checking out Berry's ass." Mike accused.
"Who's checking out Rachel's ass?" Sam walked into the kitchen as well.
"Puck." Mike smirked.
"I was not!" Puck tried to look offended.
"When have you ever denied checking a girl out?" Mike asked.
"Since you brought up Berry. There's no way in hell I'd be caught dead looking at her." Puck crossed his arms.
"Rachel isn't so bad." Sam told them. "She bent over in the choir room the other day after she dropped some sheet music and… let's just say I always pegged Rach for the granny panties type but man was I proved wrong." He chuckled as if he was just thinking about it.
"Shut it, Evans." Puck hissed. "And stop thinking about it before I knock you out."
"Why so jealous?" Mike smirked.
"I'm not jealous." Puck replied. "Sam's with Quinn. He doesn't need to be looking at anyone's panties but Fabray's."
"It's not like I was trying to check out her underwear." Sam smirked. "It just happened. Besides, didn't you cheat on Quinn with Santana?"
"That was different." Puck frowned.
"How?" Sam countered.
He didn't have time to answer before the three turned towards the stairs when they heard laughing. Tina, Kurt, Mercedes, and Rachel appeared in the doorway and all four made their way into the den.
"I told you guys to stay downstairs." Puck heard Finn say when he, Mike, and Sam walked into the den as well.
"You don't have the authority to order us around." Rachel shot back at him. "This is Kurt's house too and if he wants to stay in here then you can't do anything about that."
"Cool it, Rach. I love the attitude but I don't want you scratching his eyes out or anything." Kurt chuckled.
"I'm sorry." She sighed.
"Apology accepted." Finn smirked.
Rachel scoffed. "I wasn't apologizing to you! If anything you should be apologizing to me."
"For what?" Finn jumped up from his bean bag chair.
"You know what!" She hissed.
"Do I need to stick you two in separate corners?" Mike asked.
Rachel glared at Finn and took satisfaction in the fact that he looked away first. "I'm cool." Finn told him.
"Let's finish this level." Sam suggested and Finn was soon immersed back into the game.
"Come here." Mike sank onto the couch pulling Tina down onto his lap.
Rachel sighed and looked around. Kurt and Mercedes had taken over the loveseat and unless she wanted to sit in one of the bean bag chairs beside Finn the only other spot in the room was between Mike and Puck. She plopped onto the couch between the two boys and shifted nervously.
"I like your shirt, Mike." Rachel commented pulling at the sleeve of his shirt.
"Thanks." He smiled. "Tina picked it out."
"Asian kiss?" Tina asked.
"Asian kiss." Mike chuckled and kissed his girlfriend.
"You two are disgusting." Puck frowned.
"I think they're cute." Rachel defended them. "I have to admit that I was rooting for Tina and Artie last year but that was before I saw how much chemistry Mike and Tina have together. It's adorable."
"It's sickening." Puck shot back.
"That's your opinion." Rachel shrugged. "Even though it's the wrong one. If I had a boyfriend I would love for him to treat me like Mike does Tina."
"There's plenty of me to go around." Mike winked at Rachel and she giggled.
"Mike." She slapped his arm playfully.
"You did have a boyfriend like that." Finn spoke up and she looked over at him.
She bit her tongue to keep from going off on him and then stood up. "I think I'm going to go to bed. It's getting late." She told Kurt.
"It's barely nine o'clock." Kurt countered.
"Rachel's kind of a buzz kill. You guys should already know that." Finn said just because he knew it was mean.
"What is your problem?" Mike asked Finn. "Stop picking on Berry."
"It's fine." Rachel jutted out her chin. "I'll leave you guys alone."
"Come on, Rachel." Kurt hooked his arm with Rachel's and Tina did the same on the other side of Rachel. "I didn't realize Finn was going to be such an ass tonight." Kurt and Tina led Rachel towards the stairs with Mercedes not far behind them.
