"This is actually nice Puck," said Quinn, walking through the doorway.
"What? Did you expect it to be a run-down bar with only one or two costumers in it," asked Puck as he made his way through the bar. It was a nice bar with brown bar stools by the bar, a few booths that had dark green cushions, and some tables. There was a small stage for karaoke night and when there were performers. Along the walls were pictures of memorable sports moments and pennants of all of Ohio's sports teams.
"Good job man," Finn said giving Puck a big slap on the back as he walked through the door.
All of the guys pulled a few tables up together so they could all sit together. Rachel picked her seat right in between Santana and Brittany so she wouldn't have to worry about sitting next to Puck again. Puck took his seat next to Finn and Mike. Puck waved over to Ginny, a petite, red-hair waitress. Once she came over to the table, Puck whispered something in to her ear and once he was finished, she nodded her head, signaling that she understood.
Within five minutes, Ginny came back to the table with about fourteen glasses of shots and two baskets of peanuts.
"First round is on the house," Puck said as each person received their shot.
"Cheers to a good reunion," said Mr. Schue as he clicked glasses with his former students. The only people who didn't actually drink their shots were Kurt and Tina.
"Hey why aren't you kids drinking your shots," asked Puck, a little offended that they weren't appreciating his gift.
"I'm not a big drinker," said Kurt.
Mike and Tina looked at each other.
"Should we," Tina asked.
"Might as well, since they're all staring at us," replied Mike looking at all of his friends who were staring at them wondering what they wouldn't tell them.
"I'm actually not drinking because I'm pregnant."
"This is HUGE news! Congrats Mike and Tina," said Kurt, who was so excited that he was finally going to be able to spoil a little baby.
The rest of the gang then followed giving Mike and Tina congratulations on their soon new addition to their family.
Everyone then started ordering more drinks, especially Rachel who was drinking to try to get her mind off of Puck.
"Who's up for some karaoke," asked Puck since everyone had finished a couple of drinks and the conversations started to die down. Puck then got up from his seat and told Dewey, the DJ, to pick a song for him.
"Alright so here is my man Puck singing 'Not Over You' by Gavin Degraw," said Dewey. Dewey had known Puck for quite some time now, and knew about his girl troubles, so he figured this was the perfect time to finally have Puck say his feelings out loud. As soon as Puck had heard what song he was singing, he knew that Dewey had picked this song on purpose. But there was no way that Puck was going to chicken out of singing a song in front of all of his old friends so he figured why not.
Puck
Dreams, that's where I have to go
to see your beautiful face anymore
I stare at a picture of you and listen to the radio
Hope, hope there's a conversation
where we both admit we had it good but
until then it's alienation, I know, that much is understood
And I realize
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
No matter what they say, I'm not over you
Not over you
Puck tried to not look at Rachel while he was singing but he just couldn't help it. He sang tons of times in the bar when a performer cancelled at the last minute so it wasn't like he wasn't used to singing in front of crowds. He had sang to Rachel tons of times back when they were in high school during glee club, and when he sang to her, he just felt like it was only him and her in the room.
Damn, damn girl you do it well
And I thought you were innocent
You took this heart and put it through hell
But still you're magnificent
I I'm a boomerang doesn't matter how you throw me
Turn around and I'm back in the game
Even better than the old me
But I'm not even close without you
And if I had the chance to renew
You know there isn't a thing I wouldn't do
I could get back on the right track
But only if you'd be convinced
So until then
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
No matter what I say, I'm not over you
Not over you
Not over you
Not over you
As soon as the music stopped, Rachel ran off in to the bathroom. Puck figured she would be upset, but not upset like running off to the bathroom almost in tears.
"Why did Rachel just run off in to the bathroom," Puck asked Santana as soon as he got off the stage.
"Ummm, I don't know Mohawk-boy, maybe because of the song you just sang," responded Santana, mad that her best friend was probably crying right now in the bathroom. She was thinking that she should probably be in there comforting her, instead of talking to the jerk who just made her cry.
"Yeah and…"
"You really don't remember do you?"
I dondfbjiugfvdI do not own Glee or anything. The song that Puck sang was 'Not Over You' by Gavin Degraw. Sorry that this update took a little long! I've been so busy with basketball and with exams coming up!
